1
00:00:03,466 --> 00:00:09,100
OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE.

2
00:00:05,333 --> 00:00:11,266
>> DESPITE A SURGE OF COVID-19

3
00:00:07,266 --> 00:00:14,066
CASES UNITED AIRLINES IS ADDING

4
00:00:09,100 --> 00:00:15,933
HUNDREDS OF DOMESTIC FLIGHTS.

5
00:00:11,266 --> 00:00:20,800
MORNINGSTAR FOUNDER MAKES A HIGH

6
00:00:14,066 --> 00:00:24,900
PROFILE PURCHASE A HOTEL AND HOW

McDONALD'S.

10
00:00:25,300 --> 00:00:34,933
HERE IS ANN DWYER.

11
00:00:29,766 --> 00:00:35,833
WE'VE GOT THE SKYROCKETING COVID

12
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:37,133
CASES YET UNITED AIRLINES IS

13
00:00:34,933 --> 00:00:40,133
ADDING FLIGHTS.

14
00:00:35,833 --> 00:00:41,100
WHY IS THAT?

15
00:00:37,133 --> 00:00:42,133
>> FOR UNITED AIRLINES NORMAL

16
00:00:40,133 --> 00:00:43,933
CANNOT COME BACK SOON ENOUGH

17
00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:45,966
THEY HAVE SUFFERED.

18
00:00:42,133 --> 00:00:47,733
THEY ARE BETTING THAT AMERICANS

19
00:00:43,933 --> 00:00:49,766
FEEL THE SAME WAY AND THERE ARE

20
00:00:45,966 --> 00:00:50,133
ENOUGH OF THEM WHO WILL FEEL

21
00:00:47,733 --> 00:00:51,966
SAFE ENOUGH TO FLY AROUND THE

22
00:00:49,766 --> 00:00:54,766
HOLIDAYS.

23
00:00:50,133 --> 00:00:56,833
SO MUCH SO THAT UNITED ANNOUNCED

24
00:00:51,966 --> 00:00:58,633
TODAY THAT THEY ARE GOING TO ADD

25
00:00:54,766 --> 00:01:00,933
15% TO THEIR DOMESTIC CAPACITY

26
00:00:56,833 --> 00:01:03,233
AROUND THE HOLIDAYS TO

27
00:00:58,633 --> 00:01:04,800
ACCOMMODATE THE TRAVELERS.

28
00:01:00,933 --> 00:01:08,100
THE BIG QUESTION MARK IS WHETHER

29
00:01:03,233 --> 00:01:08,566
THIS COVID SPIKE WE ARE LIVING

30
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:11,600
THROUGH IS GOING TO CONTINUE

31
00:01:08,100 --> 00:01:13,166
INTENSIFYING.

32
00:01:08,566 --> 00:01:15,600
IF IT DOES THE SLIGHT REBOUND IN

33
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:18,966
TRAVEL DEMAND THAT WE'VE SEEN IN

34
00:01:13,166 --> 00:01:20,900
THE PAST FEW WEEKS IS NOT LIKELY

35
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:22,833
TO BE LONG-LAST SNOOK REMIND US,

36
00:01:18,966 --> 00:01:24,833
IS UNITED PACKING FLIGHTS?

37
00:01:20,900 --> 00:01:28,200
>> THEY ARE REPORTING THAT

38
00:01:22,833 --> 00:01:28,600
DEMAND IS SIGNIFICANTLY UP.

39
00:01:24,833 --> 00:01:31,866
THEY HAVE HAD VERY GOOD WEEKS

40
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:34,033
RECENTLY.

41
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:36,166
AGAIN, WE'RE MEASURING AGAINST A

42
00:01:31,866 --> 00:01:38,966
POST COVID YARDSTICK WE ARE

43
00:01:34,033 --> 00:01:41,033
NOWHERE NEAR THE LEVELS OF

44
00:01:36,166 --> 00:01:42,900
TRAVEL DEMAND WE SAW PRECOVID.

45
00:01:38,966 --> 00:01:48,500
>> THE MORNINGSTAR FOUNDER,

46
00:01:41,033 --> 00:01:51,166
CHICAGOAN HE BOUGHT THE CHICAGO

47
00:01:42,900 --> 00:01:51,766
FIRE MLS TEAM NOW HE BOUGHT THE

48
00:01:48,500 --> 00:01:54,100
WALDORF ASTORIA IN CHICAGO FOR

49
00:01:51,166 --> 00:01:55,866
$54 MILLION.

50
00:01:51,766 --> 00:01:56,333
IS THAT A STEAL GIVEN THE

51
00:01:54,100 --> 00:01:58,366
PANDEMIC HAS DEPRESSED PRICES?

52
00:01:55,866 --> 00:02:01,033
>> IT IS.

53
00:01:56,333 --> 00:02:03,333
IT IS A BARGAIN BASEMENT PRICE

54
00:01:58,366 --> 00:02:08,466
WHEN YOU CONSIDER THAT IN 2015

55
00:02:01,033 --> 00:02:11,066
THAT SAME BUILDING TRADED HANDS

56
00:02:03,333 --> 00:02:12,733
FOR I BELIEVE $112 MILLION.

57
00:02:08,466 --> 00:02:15,866
SO IN JUST A FEW SHORT YEARS THE

58
00:02:11,066 --> 00:02:18,800
MARKET VALUE HAS PLUMMETTED.

59
00:02:12,733 --> 00:02:20,166
TO BE FAIR, WE SHOULD NOTE THAT

60
00:02:15,866 --> 00:02:22,466
THE WALDORF ASTORIA HAD ISSUES

61
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:23,600
BEFORE COVID CAME ALONG.

62
00:02:20,166 --> 00:02:27,133
THE PREVIOUS OWNERS WERE LOADED

63
00:02:22,466 --> 00:02:28,466
DOWN WITH DEBT.

64
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:29,266
SO WHEN THE COVID TRAVEL SLOW

65
00:02:27,133 --> 00:02:32,300
DOWN HIT THEY WERE HIT

66
00:02:28,466 --> 00:02:34,133
ESPECIALLY HARD.

67
00:02:29,266 --> 00:02:38,300
>> GLAD TO GET IT OFF THE BOOKS.

68
00:02:32,300 --> 00:02:41,333
LASTLY, McDONALD'S IS UPPING

69
00:02:34,133 --> 00:02:42,166
ITS GAME IN THE FAUX MEAT ARENA.

70
00:02:38,300 --> 00:02:43,900
TELL US WHAT TO EXPECT IN THAT

71
00:02:41,333 --> 00:02:45,466
REGARD?

72
00:02:42,166 --> 00:02:48,100
>> McDONALD'S EVERYBODY IN THE

73
00:02:43,900 --> 00:02:50,000
INDUSTRY HAS BEEN WATCHING

74
00:02:45,466 --> 00:02:51,000
WONDERING WHY IT'S TAKEN THEM SO

75
00:02:48,100 --> 00:02:54,433
LONG TO ANSWER BURGER KING'S

76
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:56,933
IMPOSSIBLE WHOPPER.

77
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:58,933
WHICH CAME TO MARKET MONTHS AGO.

78
00:02:54,433 --> 00:03:00,666
AND ACTUALLY NOW TODAY THEY DID

79
00:02:56,933 --> 00:03:03,433
DECIDE THEY ARE JUMPING INTO THE

80
00:02:58,933 --> 00:03:06,033
CATEGORY WITH BOTH FEET.

81
00:03:00,666 --> 00:03:06,400
IT IS A VERY, VERY FAST GROWING

82
00:03:03,433 --> 00:03:08,033
SECTOR IN THE FAST FOOD

83
00:03:06,033 --> 00:03:09,600
BUSINESS.

84
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:12,833
THESE FAUX MEATS.

85
00:03:08,033 --> 00:03:15,133
McDONALD'S HAS LAUNCHED AN

86
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:15,433
ENTIRE RANGE OF PLANT-BASED MENU

87
00:03:12,833 --> 00:03:16,266
ITEMS TO ANSWER THE BURGER KING

88
00:03:15,133 --> 00:03:18,766
CALL.

89
00:03:15,433 --> 00:03:20,066
AND AT THE SAME TIME THEY HAVE

90
00:03:16,266 --> 00:03:20,933
SAID THEY ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE

91
00:03:18,766 --> 00:03:24,466
THE CHICKEN COMPETITION LINE

92
00:03:20,066 --> 00:03:26,500
DOWN ANYMORE.

93
00:03:20,933 --> 00:03:28,733
THEY ARE GOING TO LAUNCH A NEW

94
00:03:24,466 --> 00:03:31,300
FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH TO SEAL

95
00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:34,166
BACK MARKET SHARE THAT THEY LOST

96
00:03:28,733 --> 00:03:36,400
TO CHICK-FIL-A AND TO POPEYE'S

97
00:03:31,300 --> 00:03:38,266
BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN SELLING SO

98
00:03:34,166 --> 00:03:40,200
MANY SANDWICHES THERE'S LINES

99
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:41,400
