joining us with maurice stephanie flanders -- joining us with more is stephanie flanders. what is the biggest risk? stephanie: i think the biggest is you wake up monday morning and the three political question marks that investors have been trying to not think about asked a look at this lovely economic recovery in the eurozone have all somehow turned out in a way we were not expecting, so we still don't have a german government because social democrats have rejected the grand coalition.we perhaps the tail risk is a get a strong results for the really outside parties who might be able to find a government by themselves. we don't think that is likely but if we end up with that monday morning and we had a real stalemate on brexit, those three political risks suddenly leaned larger. i do not think that is a scenario investors are banking on but i think they are waking up thinking, wow, there's a lot and play the next days. david: the markets have shown amazing resilience to deal with uncertainty, particularly with europe and washington, but there are a lot of us under assault.
