a number of u.s. governors have been pleading with the federal government for more medical supplies in particular ventilators a state like new york says it needs as many ventilators as possible to stockpile for when the 8 pics of the epidemic hits which current projections show by the end of the month yet president trump continues to insist that there are enough ventilators being supplied to the various states in fact he says that many are being produced now so many that at some stage in the future the u.s. could export the ventilators to countries in need we're soon going to have more ventilators and we need we're building thousands of ventilators right now now it takes a period of time to build them and again nobody could have known a thing like this could happen we're building thousands we will fairly soon be at a point where we have far more than we can use even after we stockpile for some future catastrophe which we hope doesn't happen we're going to be distributing them the extras around the wor

and u.s. futures come on the back of taylor, what we saw a pretty horrid session of selling across all major indexes. idi, you are right, it was a rough day wednesday for the stock market, but the white house press conference on the virus continues. we have been wrapping it up in the last few moments, president trump warming it will be a horrific couple weeks ahead and admitting the severity of this crisis has changed his view that it's not just like the common flu. --'s bring in "air brake daybreak" cohost. what are you we hearing from press conference in the number of u.s. cases and number of deaths? picture, theim press conference coming at a time when we have 200,000 cases across the united states, more than 4400 people dead. to provide as many as 100,000 military-style body bags from the pentagon. president trump saying there is a threat that malign actors will try to exploit a situation in the u.s. also we have heard from dr. fauci and the task for saying that the u.s. is right on target

u.s. officials learn kim jong-un is in critical condition after a heart surgery last week and are seeking clarity. and president trump suspends immigration to the u.s. over coronavirus concerns, as some states end their lockdowns. we've had a pretty eventful 36 hours. the price of oil, we look at the mechanisms that led to that. we will look at markets. we had an interesting note on the pound. brexit has taken a little bit of a back step with so much, the lockdown. yesterday was the first day of talks resuming on brexit between e.u.u.k. and e.u., the saying they will not extend the transition period. >> we begin this busy newsday with wti true -- crude again below 0 dollars a barrel, recovering from yesterday's wipeout which saw plunges in new york of up to -$41 a barrel, the first time they have gone negative in history. the june contract trading above $20, spread reflecting growing concern over shortage of storage space. the u.s. has information north korean leader kim jong-un was in cri

bunker hill the u.s. says that this was just a freedom of navigation operation and what that means is because these are islands that are disputed very controlled by china but also by taiwan malaysia the philippines and vietnam that the navy actually came out with this statement here's what they had to say this freedom of navigation operation was consistent with international law and actually meant to challenge the restrictions on innocent passage imposed by china and taiwan so basically what the u.s. is saying is that because china is posing a threat to freedom of the seas the united states hostile response rate and that's what they did by moving around in these waters the fear is that these things are most going to be boy is going to boil over and now with the united states or entities in the media of the united states accusing china of the worldwide pandemic it seems like everything is escalating like to try to raise your kind of melding into one absolutely tensions are rising and it's bringing up the a

why did u.s. oil prices hit negative territory at unprecedented fall on american crude oil sales has added to the hardships caused by coronavirus so what will that mean for the u.s. and the global economy this is inside story. hello and welcome to the program i'm richelle carey that's one of the world's most valued commodities but the coronavirus lockdowns to overturn the dominance of oil 4th of a barrel of u.s. oil fell to less than nothing on monday.

the u.s. as well, we have the following revenue and the pulling away of the forecast for ibm. tech has been resilient in the equity market. if that falls, we may question the recent rally. front and center is the oil market. we had the unprecedented drop with negative prices on the wti on the may contract. we will question and dig into what happened there. did it have to do with people long wanting to roll over to june. and it reflects what we know what is been happening in the physical market for quite a long time. if you look at the markets, we are seeing a little bit of a rebound in the may contracts so we are back in positive territory. $21.contracts, around elsewhere, you are seeing red on the screen in terms of asian equities. dollar strength. the kiwi underperforms. we had some comments from adrian or in terms of the monetization of debt. around $25 a barrel. president donald trump says he will sign an executive order temporarily suspending immigration into the united states. this comes

but when the u.s. has a major crisis situation where we are in right now where our health care workers cannot get access to that, what are you skyrocketingu think the president had to use the defense production act on 3m? >> well, it's been a focus of the defense production act, i would say that we've been telling the administration for days and days, and it's important to understand that, we're happy to shift our overseas production to the u.s. we're already a net importer. but there are consequences, as you highlighted. we are often the sole provider for health care workers in many cubs, and that was the -- in many countries, and that was the way we built out this capability, to be able to support them. there will be consequences. they will not have access to products, and they're in the middle of the fight too. we're happy to do that. we'll comply with the dpa. it was important that we had that to help us aggressively go after that because of the consequences on a humanitarian level. and then the u.

do you worry more about europe in terms of market impact and economy, or the u.s.? u.s. i think probably the it is the biggest economy in the world, and although the number of cases are larger than anywhere else, the response to the crisis has been slower and they have been slower implementing lockdowns. aile we are starting to see slowdown in new cases in italy and spain, potentially the u.k., in the u.s. we are a few weeks behind that. the situation will get a lot worse before it gets better in the u.s., and implications are significant. in joblessge pickup claims last week, we will see the same if not more again. that has a significant impact on the global economy. francine: at the same time, they have more firepower. fiscally.uld do more tony: i think that is right, and so far they have done. they are able to do it anymore coordinated way than in europe. that is all set. seen2 trillion we have will have a significant impact andffsetting the negatives economic effects of the virus. francine: what do you do with the emerging markets now? mixed bag.nk it is a there are

the u.s.-soviet relationship. can one imagine such a thing today? with the overseas accomplishments of a classical musician capture the attention of america's political leaders or the country's newspapers and magazines? would we have a tickertape parade that would attract 100, 000 delirious fans held for an artist with a gift for playing tchaikovsky? i think we know the answer to that is no, but in an earlier time, a pianist's triumph could mesmerize the american people. few would question the notion that classical music has little relevance in contemporary america. it's collection -- its connection to the larger culture is tenuous at best, leading magazines offer very little coverings of the goings-on in the world of classical music. newspapers supply little more than short reviews of concerts and recitals. for nearly all americans, the classical music landscape in the united states is alien terrain. perhaps this group is an exception to that. but this was not always so.

claims the u.s. walked the path of one of their ships on april 6th and ignored warnings as a result they said they increased maritime patrols in the region which is what led to the confrontation with the u.s. navy in response to trump's latest comments a spokesperson for iran's armed forces said quote today instead of pulling others the americans should put all their efforts toward saving those members their forces who are infected with corona virus the confrontation also comes as iran releases but it's showing the launch of its 1st military satellite the news is increased fears over whether iran has the technology to create ballistic missiles as one of the countries that scrambled to save what was left of the iran nuclear deal after the u.s. pulled out and 28 seen a spokesperson for germany's foreign ministry expressed concern over the new development. in our view that the iranian rocket program has a decent. on the region and it's also an example. our european security u.n. security council resolut

while the u.s. accused iran of dangerous and provocative maneuvers in the persian gulf last week or ron has argued it was forced to increase its patrol presence after the u.s. fell to follow protocols iran has presented the dispute as an issue of national security noting the proximity to their country's border iran's foreign minister took to twitter writing quote u.s. 6 forces have no business 7000 miles away from home provoking our sailors off our own persian gulf shores the latest conflict also follows the launch of iran's 1st military satellite pentagon officials were quick to argue that the launch was evidence of threatening behavior claiming a secret military space program could be a step towards creating ballistic missiles. i don't tell you exactly what the intelligence is because that's classified information but what i can tell you is that when a very long way if you have a missile that goes a very long way. whether or not to put a satellite in space or not i won't go into those details but

the u.s. has really shifted a lot and cycled back and forth through different approaches for iran to simplify things a little bit. i would say the policy has cycled through three main postures toward iran in the 40 year revolution. first a posture of engagement in which the u.s. uses primarily third parties to reach a comprehensive setmentment. and also engagement usually is aimed at bringing about some kind of domestic change in iran, but certainly peacefully, mainly encouraging moderates. the model for engagement is say u.s. and china in the 1970s when the u.s. and china fwrent being extremely hostile toward each other toward a more cooperative relationship. secondly, cosergs. economic sanctions, various levels, iran backing down across the board, but really what the preference is using these hostile measures to carry out regime change in iran to try to bring down the islamic regime or to change it for substantially. thirdly containment. there is possible containment toward iran where they l

the u.s. centers for disease control is recommending americans wear masks and public to protect against the current virus the president donald trump says it's falling tree and he's choosing not to follow that advice. another 10 indonesians have died due to the current virus in the past 24 hours raising the total to 19 with around 2000 infections with the month of ramadan beginning soon president joe cole we don't know is urging everyone not to travel but many are desperate to get out of the capital despite the risk of spreading the virus to communities in the provinces jessica washington reports from jakarta. this is the time of year when workers in jakarta begin to return to their hometowns for ramadan fasting and to celebrate with their families it's usually something people look forward to but the corona virus outbreak has stripped the joy from this annual tradition usually the holiday travel doesn't start until right before but this year some are making the journey early. my family asked m

the u.s. and china continue to trade barbs about the coronavirus. washington initially said beijing had covered up the extent of the infection in the early days, prompting china to say it was a u.s. attempt to shift attention. washington says china and the world health organization have led the world health -- have let the rest of the world down. shared theve not virus sample making it impossible to track the disease's evolution. i am making a legal determination today. the road hug -- the world health organization's regulatory arm failed during this pandemic. >> tensions are rising again between washington and iran. president trump has said he has ordered the navy to sink any at sea.gunboat tehran responded by telling washington to get out of the middle east. year lowered from a 21 after two days of frantic selling. brent futures for june closed 5% higher after slumping by as much as 70% earlier in the day. grew higher despite falling into negative territory on monday. global news -- global n
