Over in Sweden.... senior officials from North Korea and the U.S. kicked off working-level

talks.

They're hoping to make some progress on a second summit between their leaders.

Kim Hyo-sun fills us in on the latest.

Working-level talks between delegations of North Korea and the United States are being

held in Sweden,... in an effort to prepare for a second Kim-Trump summit.

North Korea's Vice Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui and U.S. Special Representative for North

Korea Stephen Biegun kicked off their meeting on Saturday local time,... and haven't appeared

in public since.

This is their first meeting since Biegun became Washington's special representative for North

Korea in August last year.

South Korea's nuclear envoy Lee Do-hoon has also joined them for three-way talks,... which

are likely to focus on setting the summit agenda.

The three officials are meeting at a highly-secured retreat located some 50 kilometers northwest

of Stockholm.

This comes as Pyeongyang's top nuclear envoy Kim Yong-chol arrived in Beijing on Sunday,...

after wrapping up his three day visit to Washington.

He met with President Trump to discuss the details of a second summit,... and also hand-delivered

a personal letter from North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

Last Friday,... when the North Korean official met U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo,...

Pompeo said it's time for Pyeongyang's denuclearization commitments to be executed and implemented.

He revealed his remarks during an interview with Sinclair Broadcast Group,... as he described

the Trump administration's efforts to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula.

Now, it's left to be seen whether the talks in Sweden can break the current deadlock over

denuclearization talks and lead to a productive second summit.

Economic Update: U.S. Government Shutdown Plus China Slowdown Equals … ? - Duration: 4:13.

Chris Hill: The government shutdown is now three weeks long with no signs of an end in sight.

We've got more evidence of an economic slowdown in China.

Ron, obviously we are business-focused investors, but how should we be feeling about the big

macro stuff these days? Ron Gross: Oh, this furlough.

It's a human story, but there are real economic implications here.

Just the paychecks that are being forgone right now represent a loss of more than $2.2 billion

in consumer spending.

You have housing, transportation, food, healthcare, all getting hit.

That will reverberate through the economy, for sure.

Hill: Andy, we're seeing more and more CEOs come out, maybe not as strongly as Fred Smith

at FedEx did a couple of weeks back, but more and more CEOs coming out and talking about

their ability to plan in 2019 getting harder and harder.

Andy Cross: I think it has to, when you start thinking about a government shutdown,

the trade issues continue to be forefront for so many of the global companies, wondering

what's going to happen with the trade issues.

This uncertainty, CEOs and chief financial officers don't like planning because it's

so difficult to do when they don't know what's going to happen even over the next few months.

So, when you start thinking about where interest rates are going to go and all these uncertainties

for them, they start saying, "Listen, we can't plan as aggressively as we would like to."

Aaron Bush: The largest uncertainty to me is less than the U.S. and more what's going

on with China and the slowdown there. We saw Apple a week ago lower its guidance.

That was a pretty big deal.

But I think there's a chance that that might just be the first step of many.

If you think about Nike, Starbucks, Tesla, all of these big consumer-branded companies

that also operate in China, they could get hit, especially if a lot of those companies'

growth stories are dependent on China in some way.

I don't think the news about GDP growth rates or any of that really is the biggest existential deal.

But when you pair on trade tensions, even thinking about the story this morning in which

another Huawei executive in Poland was detained, I can totally see how those pressures could

escalate and how, at some point, China could retaliate even harder on companies operating in China.

Gross: We've also got some consumer price information this morning that shows inflation

is not necessarily something to worry about right now, which may give the Feds some leeway

here if they want to pull back on the tightening and let the economy go a little further, which,

of course, Trump and others would love to see it.

The pressure on the Fed chief is pretty significant.

Hill: To go back to one of the companies that you mentioned, Aaron, you look at Starbucks,

on Friday, Goldman Sachs comes out with a downgrade of Starbucks, but it's basically

tied to an economic slowdown in China.

It really does seem like a time for investors to look at the stocks in their portfolio and

ask the question, "How much exposure do we have in China here?"

For the longest time, China has been the great opportunity for so many businesses.

Now, it seems like the risk factor is a little higher, Andy.

Cross: Yeah, I think so, Chris.

If you can look into your portfolio and look at the global exposure you have at the individual

level to those companies, make sure you understand what that exposure is to your portfolio.

I think, long-term, China continues to be such a massive economy and such a massive

population that for so many consumer-branded companies like the ones Aaron mentioned,

it's still an attractive market.

But, certainly, these trade tensions and some of the macro slowdowns will impact that in the short-term.

Gross: On a macro level, China is so difficult to figure out.

They're notorious for playing with the numbers.

It's really hard to understand until you actually see someone like an Apple slowing their sales

or purchases from suppliers.

So, sometimes, we have to play catch-up rather than being able to look at the macro data.

Atiku 'Convinced' US Government Is In Support Of His Candidature - Duration: 2:30.

Atiku 'Convinced' US Government Is In Support Of His Candidature

Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has expressed conviction that the United States government is in support of his presidential project.

Atiku said this on Friday in an interview with Voice of America (VOA) as part of his first-time-in-13-years visit to the United States. The interviewer had asked Atiku: "Are you convinced that the United States government is in support of your candidature?".

"There is no doubt because the United States is ready to support any country that is practising democracy," he added. Atiku also said claims he hadn't visited the State for so long had nothing to do with corruption, as popularly being alleged.

"The whole thing is about misinformation… for a very long time they, have been lying to them [Nigerians]," he said. "I tried to explain to them but they refused to listen. And I hope now people are going to understand.

Now they have issued it [visa] to me and I am here. I'm having some positive discussions with some of the officials," he said.

"I was in the Congress and I had discussions with some high ranking Congress men and Women about Nigeria and how Nigeria intends to improve her relationship with the United States of America.

Atiku arrived in the US on Thursday night in the company of Senate President Bukola Saraki, a trip his supporters have been using as weapon against the popular perception of corruption about him.

However, the US chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has dismissed it, saying "a thief will remain a thief no matter where he visits.

Similarly, the Nigerian government did not wait for his return before claiming that he will have to explain the suspicious N156 slush payment he got from Bank PHB in 2009, which "contributed' to the collapse of the bank.
