:00:56. > :01:02.Business report. It's a mix lighting snapshot of the world of business.
:01:02. > :01:05.We will talk about Greece and also Samsun with them doing it again but
:01:05. > :01:08.the investors are not happy. We start in the United States where
:01:08. > :01:14.most people were enjoying the 4th of July holiday on Thursday. Markets
:01:14. > :01:17.have been closed as many will be making a long week-end of it. But
:01:17. > :01:19.for Wall Street it's back to action stations this morning. In a few
:01:19. > :01:29.hours time we get official employment figures- the Non-farm
:01:29. > :01:31.
:01:31. > :01:34.Payrolls for June. The figures could not be more important for global
:01:35. > :01:37.markets. They have been on a rollercoaster ride since Federal
:01:37. > :01:46.Reserve chief Ben Bernanke talked last month about winding down his
:01:47. > :01:53.massive stimulus programme as the economy improves. It's 85 billion
:01:53. > :01:57.dollars each month pumping into the economy. So here's the paradox the
:01:57. > :02:02.Fed has to deal with that good news on the economy is seen as bad news
:02:02. > :02:05.by investors. What are we expecting today? Economists think US employers
:02:05. > :02:15.created 165,000 jobs in June, well below the average for the past six
:02:15. > :02:16.
:02:16. > :02:22.months. That may have made a tiny dent in the unemployment rate -
:02:22. > :02:24.which is expected to have crept down to 7.5% from 7.6% in May. Any
:02:24. > :02:34.stronger figures than that and markets could be in for another
:02:34. > :02:37.
:02:37. > :02:43.bumpy ride. Our report from Coney Island, New York. In the United
:02:43. > :02:52.States it is a national holiday and Americans are in good spirits and in
:02:52. > :02:57.New York, they looked relaxed but is popular spot is Coney Island. The
:02:57. > :03:01.recent wild ride on the stock market has not been quite as much fun.
:03:01. > :03:06.Stocks headed downhill after the Federal reserve chairman Ben Bonetti
:03:06. > :03:13.says the Central Bank may stop withdrawing the stimulus support as
:03:13. > :03:20.the economy improves. One week later the stop the stocks shot up and the
:03:20. > :03:27.recovery was weaker than first thought but what is going on?
:03:27. > :03:30.up and down and spinning around. This trader says the end of the
:03:30. > :03:35.cheap money sending financial markets into a tailspin. We have got
:03:35. > :03:40.back on our feet and it's solid underneath but moving forward
:03:40. > :03:45.without government help many people are apprehensive. Cheap money
:03:45. > :03:52.printed by the simple bank has helped the recovery and also made
:03:52. > :03:57.government bonds less profitable pushing capital into risky asset.
:03:57. > :04:03.Getting X at right is important not just for the economy but all
:04:03. > :04:10.avoiding a financial shock and communication is crucial. Not only
:04:11. > :04:15.is the Federal reserve using new policy tools but they are choosing
:04:15. > :04:23.communication as the tool to manage the expect patient. When you try to
:04:23. > :04:26.manage that you can get it wrong. Americans tried to escape the stress
:04:26. > :04:30.but not everyone will get a break and one of the conditions the
:04:30. > :04:36.Federal reserve will set by slowing the stimulus is the employment
:04:36. > :04:41.picture needs to improve and while Americans relax this weekend, the
:04:41. > :04:51.investors and the central bankers will be monitoring the jobs figures
:04:51. > :04:51.
:04:51. > :04:55.on Friday very closely. I love Coney Island. We will keep a look on those
:04:55. > :05:00.numbers. When are record profits simply not good enough? That seems
:05:00. > :05:03.to be the problem for South Korean electronics giant Samsung. In the
:05:03. > :05:10.last few hours it has released estimated earnings for the April to
:05:10. > :05:13.June period ahead of full quarterly earnings in a couple of weeks. It
:05:13. > :05:18.said it made an operating profit of $8.3 billion in the last three
:05:19. > :05:28.months. That was up 47% on the same period last year and a record figure
:05:29. > :05:29.
:05:29. > :05:32.for the company. This is the thing! It's been boosted by sales of its
:05:32. > :05:35.new Galaxy S4 smartphone - and they are expected to keep rising over the
:05:35. > :05:45.next few months. But investors are not happy. Today's numbers were
:05:45. > :05:51.
:05:51. > :05:54.below market expectations. Let's get the latest from Sharanjit Leyl who
:05:54. > :06:00.has been following this story from our Singapore office. There's more
:06:00. > :06:06.pressure on Samsung shares then? They are bit of their own success?
:06:06. > :06:11.You hit the nail on the head. The share price has dipped today down 3%
:06:11. > :06:18.after that profit and the shares dropped 15% since July futures
:06:18. > :06:22.certain brokerages down grading the brokerage figures. The biggest TV
:06:22. > :06:28.maker and mobile phone maker eggs they will be slowing down despite
:06:28. > :06:33.the new models and this slowdown appears to be worse than expect and
:06:33. > :06:40.Robert guidance reinforces that with Samsun smart phone growth beginning
:06:40. > :06:46.to slow down. It has enjoyed tremendous success recently. The
:06:46. > :06:53.popularity of the galaxy range saw it overtake the other phone makers
:06:53. > :06:58.but according to research firm 's Samsun accounts for about 95% of the
:06:58. > :07:05.Android profits and that comes to a downside because they have grown so
:07:05. > :07:10.fast or growth slowing and that trend may hurt their profits. We saw
:07:10. > :07:14.earlier the south Korean investment has cut forecasts for that
:07:14. > :07:19.technology giant and there's been similar moves from other companies
:07:19. > :07:27.as well with concerns triggered by the launch of new products from
:07:27. > :07:30.rivals in China and elsewhere. Chinese products are giving a lot of
:07:30. > :07:34.the big companies a run for their money and we will talk to you again
:07:34. > :07:37.soon. Now to Greece, where austerity policies are certainly very painful
:07:37. > :07:39.and deeply unpopular, but are they going far enough? That's a question
:07:39. > :07:44.officials from the EU, European Central Bank and International
:07:44. > :07:46.Monetary Fund - the Troika - are asking today. They are in Athens to
:07:46. > :07:50.decide whether Greece has done enough to qualify for the next
:07:50. > :08:00.tranche of money - eight billion euros - ahead of a decision by
:08:00. > :08:06.
:08:06. > :08:09.eurozone finance ministers on Monday. They are concerned about the
:08:09. > :08:15.slow pace of reforms to the public sector - including cutting some
:08:15. > :08:21.15,000 jobs. Greece warns it won't meet targets by a deadline set for
:08:21. > :08:25.today. Plans to sell off state assets to raise cash, including the
:08:25. > :08:33.national lottery, have also been going very slowly. This report from
:08:33. > :08:40.Athens. The State lottery is not taking bets on whether they will get
:08:40. > :08:43.the reassurances they seek keep their bail-out cash flowing. It's
:08:43. > :08:49.not just setbacks for privatisations such as this lottery but the
:08:49. > :08:52.Government has a few hours to deliver its promise to get rid of
:08:52. > :08:57.thousands of civil servants. International lenders and desperate
:08:57. > :09:04.to see savings taking off. You'd be hard pressed to find anywhere to
:09:04. > :09:09.better illustrate the inability to move on and to reinvigorate and to
:09:09. > :09:14.try to make some of its assets. This airport was abandoned at a time of
:09:14. > :09:19.the Olympic Games ten years ago when the airport moved out of town and
:09:19. > :09:24.the site has been left which is three times the size of Monte Carlo
:09:24. > :09:28.and it is up for sale and the hope is to bring in billions of dollars
:09:28. > :09:35.from one of the latest privatisation and this project has hit major
:09:35. > :09:41.delays. There can only be positive thing. The new chief leading the
:09:41. > :09:46.seller insist the lottery is a change and that Greeks will come to
:09:46. > :09:50.understand that job losses now are for the best. I think finally we
:09:50. > :09:56.will have a happy and but unfortunately in Greece sometimes it
:09:56. > :10:02.takes longer and needs a bit more effort to put things and track and
:10:02. > :10:09.to see a result. The has shrunk dramatically over four years and in
:10:09. > :10:14.addition the income from the people, nobody 's dream is trying to
:10:14. > :10:19.be employed in but that been a dream for over 40 years but it might they
:10:19. > :10:24.are today. For many, this is the latest in a long line of weary
:10:24. > :10:30.manoeuvres to keep the country afloat and in Greece personal
:10:30. > :10:40.economic survival which is now paramount. We will keep close to
:10:40. > :10:41.
:10:41. > :10:44.that. A quick look at the markets. There's been a rally in Europe.
:10:44. > :10:46.Asian markets followed the rally on European markets after yesterday.
