It is unusual. The tradition is the chairman will deliver the exact same testimony the day after. We expect the same thing today. No indication well get a dramatically different message. She said basically the Economic Forecast looks like it is holding. Take a look at what you said. We are likely to continue reducing the pace of our purchases in measured steps. We also indicated this program is not on a preset course. It means if the Committee Judges there to be a change in the outlook, it would reconsider what is appropriate with respect to the program. We have gone weak economic numbers. Sales and production. Some of those things may also had to do with the weather. We have had interim time, fed policymakers, the cleveland fed president last night suggesting the taper would continue and that the dramatic change in the outlook, and, we had those fed minutes, which indicated a fed had agreed to alter their Forward Guidance with regard to Interest Rates going forward. That may be the biggest. I expect she may get questioned about that. There was a debate about how that should change. Do they change their threshold to a Different Number . Do they make a more qualitative . I think she may ask about that today. We also saw a lot of volatility in emerging markets. What kind of pushback might we see in those topics . She will be asked about those things. Theher thing unusual about congressional testimony, a lot of things on the regulatory front as well. I would expect that to dominate a lot of discussion as well. Thank you. In ukraine, gunmen seized a building. We will do everything we can, everything possible. We will do all tools and legal means. It is such a hot spot is the reaction to what is happening . They are concerned about it. If you think about it, the lead up to the housing of the former president , which happened friday, concerning the country was some of the regions in the west in the ukraine would secede. Oppositeoncern is the that some of the proregions could seek more autonomy within ukraine. It is on their mind. They surrounded the building with police. Worth noting, we do not know who the gunmen are or what they want it we just know they raised the flag. There is no evidence they are in any way connected to the russian state. Week spoke about their concerns about ethnic russians. Onsideey have militaries their side of the border. Saying, we do not see them moving into the ukraine, but we are asked to avoid any kind of intervention or confusing confusion. No word about what putin might think about these moves. Up here is what might speed from the west. Anywhere from brussels . Collected as all in the works. The connection is the Prime Minister i spoke with about to be voted in, really has a full plate and the issue of territorial integrity is not one he needs to deal with right now. Ukraine needs 35 billion over the years. A deal oneeds to cut to avoid default but he did not leave the door open for a haircut for bonds holders. One thing he understands, as he told me, he is the most unpopular Prime Minister in history because anything they get will come of those conditions like in greece. Im interested in what youre hearing as to how putin might respond. Here, hek the feeling would kind of welcome that. Russians would offer 15 billion, whether they would want to extend the offer again after this change of government, that is not clear. What they have been saying is, we are happy for the west to help in ukraine. The ukraine is a big trading partner for russia. They do not want it to fail economics. Want whateverot happens to be to their detriment. That is their big issue. All right. We will check with you throughout the morning. Thank you for your update.

Google filled a behemoth business by showing ads in its search engine. Newestthe companys businesses is google fiber. Home Internet Access the Company Claims leaves competitors in the dust. All of that comes at quite a cost. Cory johnson took a he dived into the business of google fiber. Jumpstartmpt to services to unprecedented speeds. It is 100 times faster. It is faster than verizon files, faster than at t. Other competitors google is timeng in the dust warner cable. Google started in 2012 and now it is in utah and coming very soon to tech this. Google Just Announced it wants to bring this service to 34 more cities. Cuttingedgeork . Routers and modems. Cabled right into each customers home. It will cost google as much as 900 per household and up to 3 billion per year. If googles told it, will customers come . Billion will come, giving google fiber as big a Customer Base as comcast, 24 million. Nextogle gears up for its round of fiber installations. Cory johnson gives a for closer. Ook a fiber pioneer joins us now. Wellare you hearing . How did this perform . Is an interesting experiment from google. We are seeing innovation on a level the phone caret carriers. This. Re not doing theyre not bringing it to the home. The fastest speed they could maybe in somee cases 300 megabits per second. The fastest thing verizon or Something Else can offer, it is three or four times that. Specifically Technology Businesses here. People do not like it . Class i think they do. We talked to a lot of people here. We spoke to the mayor yesterday talking about what consumers are getting out of it. It would help not just businesses but the school and the local hospital. Of course, the college town here. A lot of businesses, people are coming out of school and starting businesses here. There is a lot of technology in the area. We met and spoke with a Technology Company about what this means for the average user. Take a listen. Gigabit network speeds are not new. Many businesses are it he have them connected to their data centers. They pay for that because of the amount of data they need to conduct business. It is new to have the speed going to the home. It will be up to the consumer demand to create to create the push of new services to occupy that level of bandwidth. What is interesting about new uses ofind of chny see the real speed at which da f the internet. I cannot believe my data phone can work that fast. Y wi up helping google seah engines . What is the real motivation . Class a great question. Google spent so much money on this. About 40 increase on their cap back for many years to come. Theyre getting into the Internet Service provider business in selective places where it makes sense financially. They are taking it right to verizon and at t and comcast. We have seen the local Cable Provider change their service and offer faster speeds and lower their price to compete with google, but they cannot come anywhere near the speed available. It is a clever way for google use the things it is good at. And bring it to the home. We actually have competition in the cable network. What about regulated business . I would think google would shun all the regulation that would come with being a Cable Provider. It is interesting. Theyre partnering with the cities here. I spent a lot of time the mayor yesterday. They have a Fiber Network in the city that was losing money and facing tens of millions of dollars in networking upgrades. They were happy to hand this thing over to google and google would only do the deal with them if a lot of regulatory issues would get out of the way. The same thing happened in kansas city.

How bad will it be next month . You do not want to know. Natural gas in particular, we have been freezing. Trying to heat our homes and it is costing us a fortune. In the the increase amount of natural gas we are using at the same time we see a rise in price. We see it reflect where the storms have been all across the country except the west. The only place where natural gas consumption is going down because they did not have as much snow there. Everyone else, it is been a three percent, almost four percent in terms of usage and costs. That has an effect. Take a look at what electricity is costing. You add consumption to price and you get the costs and that cost is up almost four percent over the same time last year. Is just a onemonth change. And imagine what it would be like for the entire winter. In new york, you are one of the worst off.

The dow jones also paring its loss by about 10 points, now down just 1 10. Looking deeper into the data, give me your take on the goods. Class it is good. You want to look past the headlines and see what businesses are defend debt spending. You take out defense and aircrafts nec a pretty solid gain for a month. The three month rolling average, we are up 6. 6 . Couple ofter a months. When you look at capital goods, it looks like this is is starting to spend again and ended december. The december number was revised from a negative to a positive. This matters because 30 of the S P Companies revenue comes from spending. Of whereeal indicator the stock market might be going in the future. One problem is transportation. Happened to has orders there. Orders have really dropped off for that. Shipments, that is what goes in to gdp. It is not good news for the first quarter. He would think if theres anymore and it has been picking up and we were so worried they havent, that would trickle down to gdp, but usa not so. Klesko orders rising would give us good news in the second quarter. What shipments are telling us is , youre collecting the money for what you ordered a while ago. At this point, they have dropped off significantly in the Fourth Quarter. Maybe it was some sort of hit cup in what businesses wanted to put out there. The fed is watching this closely, no doubt. You could mention jobless claims. They moved no doubt. There it they are within a range. It doesnt look like the economy is falling apart.

With theer joins us significant implications of this recall. Take us through the details. This is the old gm that we are talking about. It wentduced before into bankruptcy. A lot of these cars to not even exist. General motors made six models in the u. S. That had an issue with an ignition switch, that if your keychain was too heavy or bounced the wrong way after you hit a speed bump, it would switch off. That is incredibly dangerous. Lose a lot of your power controls and your airbags can shut off. A lot of people were involved in crashes and airbags did not deploy and at least 13 people died, 17 injuries. It is an ongoing investigation. General motors first identified this problem in 2004. It is 10 years later they have started to recall some of these cars. While. Wow. They issued a Service Bulletin in the middle of the last decade, which is one step below recall. They fixed like 700 cars. That is not enough. Least 1. 6 million cars affected here.

Goodbye, barbie. Hello, my little pony. Hasbro has found their way into the parents pocket book. We will tackle them next. You are watching in the loop live on Bloomberg Television. Companies from google to Procter Gamble and even political campaigns all rely on big data. Who buys what when and what influences consumers. These electronic trails might fall short, especially of companies launch new products and enter new markets. Take a look at hasbro. How they explores leveraged what they learned and tripled sales of girls items. Is the founder of red associates, a Consulting Firm that measures and studies human behavior. It is a pleasure to have you here. Is you i think about it look at more crowd sourcing, but you call it sends making. It is trying to get deeper into the understanding of who people are and how we make our decisions. The promise of big data and statistics is that you can cast a very broad net. We go deep and try to understand, what are the reasons why we do the things we do . What are the ways that we do them . Most of that happens below the threshold of awareness. It happens in dealing with the world. If a company wanted to use sense making to help their business, what does that step look like . Do i have People Living in my home . Yes, you do. How wewant to understand engage with tvs, then you immerse yourself in that world to understand how they live. If youre an executive in a big company, would probably do not live like consumers. You do not live like consumers in other countries. If you want your to enter china or another market, you need to understand what is meaningful them and how they live their life. I mentioned hasbro. What is a company that youve noticed that has made this transition . The story behind samsung there are many to that success. They are the ones that go deepest in understanding. They need to understand americans in order to sell us phones, tvs, and equipment in general. They are very advanced in terms of understanding what is important to us. You mentioned tvs. Some look at tvs like electronics. What is the samsung difference . They used to look at tvs like electronics. They were sold like electronics. Now, they look at families and how they deal with tvs. Even though the father would say, i make the choices, it was really the mother that made the decisions. It became more like fashion or furniture. Furniture. What was important to her was not the pixel length, but whether it fits into the home. And that is called the tiebreaker of the tv industry. What is the cost associated with it. It is vastly more costly not to do it. Longerterm. Of course. If you do not understand the customers and you cannot read the data that you have, particularly in other geographies, that is going to be very costly. Of course, it is timeconsuming and costly to spend time with your customers. Fascinating. It really highlights how much people might not know about what we do. Thank you for joining us. The partner at red associates. We will be back in a few minutes. Warren buffett annual earning report will announce recordbreaking profit. What kind of profit are we looking at . Some of the estimates are saying at least 18 billion. Unbelievable. It is a big number, a big number. It is fascinating about this to me is not just the absolute itber, it is really what signifies about the evolution of this company. A lot of people think about berkshire as a mutual fund. They have this enormous stock portfolio. Have all of these operating businesses now that are really just incredible cash flow and earningsbased. Profit ish of this directly related to Warren Buffetts investments and how much is related to his henchmen, if you will . You could say that all of the acquisitions were his investments originally. A lot of this profit is coming from units like Burlington Northern santa fe, and acquisition he did back in 2010. Unit. From an energy it is coming from all of these acquisitions. The issue ofraise succession even more . Succession is a huge issue for berkshire. If you listen to what buffett said about that in the past, he would say that these operating berkshire hashow a future that is going to go on much longer than him. He is not involved in the daytoday operations. Right. I wonder what the correlation is between their profits and gdp. Is there one . Analysts,speak with as the u. S. Goes, so does berkshire. Think about Something LikeBurlington Northern santa fe, a big, big railroad. If people are buying more stuff, companies are moving more stuff, Burlington Northern tends to do better. What are you expecting what do people want to know . Is always on the table. Last year, he did not give us that much on that front. Apart from that, it is going to be everything from the economy to his thoughts about the investing environment right now. Are these sectors the ones that are responsible for the profits . A big chunk of it. Another piece of the equation is there was not , lot of bad weather last year so the claims they faced should be lower. Thank you so much. We appreciate that look into berkshire hathaway. We are a few minutes from the opening bell. We have your top 10 traits. Keep it right here on in the loop. Will come back. You are in the loop.

She made her statement clear that they will continue but if they have to they will bailout the market. People are going to start to take some money to allow this because this lack of growth is eventually going to come in to play. Todd horwitz is skeptical on the markets . I am shocked.
