As a private company, we are intending to focus more on those areas. Not surprising, dell says the death of the pc has been greatly exaggerated. The death of the pc has been talked about a lot. It turns out there are still one million of these devices sold every day. Are you kidding . This has been hugely successful in india. How do you differentiate . What is the distinction of this product versus a more highend apple or microsoft . Our tablet business is taking off in 2013. It doubled from the second to third quarter. It doubled again second and third, third to fourth tripled. There is differentiation in product and services. The real issue is how to integrate this securely into a companys operations. Make it work. Not just about the product. It is about software and services and understanding how it works within a company to make people more productive. Part of being private, you will try to shift the lions share of your revenue to Software Services or will you still be thought of primarily as a Hardware Company in five years . We would love to see our other businesses grow that fast. We still have a substantial business in hardware. I will tell you, it is a Good Business for us.

We will be in the penalty box. Why not . It was a big trauma. There were a lot of causes. One has to be poor risk judgments made by certain banks. To the extent banks were getting a lot of benefits from their good risk management, and it turned out to be flawed, it is fair you pay some price and reputation when it does not go well. This is the most damaging financial crisis since the depression and maybe before that. With all the home foreclosures, bank failures, and the impact it had on the global economy, it was devastating. It will take a long time to recover their trust. It is not surprising. It is a slow recovery. Consumption is in low gear. It would be hard to expect this recovery to look like any other. It will be more slow. The purpose of a Financial Institution is to help customers and clients live their lives. We have done everything we can to narrow the framework of the business. As we continue the compliance and risk infrastructure we have been building on, a think you will not find those things repeat. We are still in the process of cleaning it up. We can make all the technocratic changes you like, but we have to change the culture in banking institutions. That is what we are very focused on at barclays. Culture change takes a long time.

Im thinking of the old greek principles of balance, measure, fighting against excesses, eliminating abuses. If we have not learned that on the occasion of the crisis, it is a pity. Have we learned something . The future will tell. We had better have. I think we have. British Prime Minister David Cameron also making the rounds. He is there for the same reason irans leader is there. It is because he wants people to give him money. It is hugely important. In the first six month of last year, britain was the most popular destination for Foreign Investment anywhere in the world. One of britains great advantages is we are not embarrassed we have chinese investment. We are not embarrassed indian capital is building up the company. Were proud of that.

It is worth the slight stress for the positive experience of having the privilege of running these large businesses. Do what you like. If you do what you like, you will do fine. Spend time with the family and people you love. Sometimes i feel stressed. It seems a bit of an indulgence when you realize how lucky you are. You have got to have things outside of work. The work cannot consume every minute of your life. You see it when you come to work with a healthy attitude, when you have other interests, when you get exercise, it clears your head. Back at home, we are tapping ceos for wisdom. Like what surprised them when they made it to the top. Richard shermans agent tells us how he is handling a viral and lucrative situation next in sports.

The fact that we opened our 41st restaurant in boston a few weeks ago, the scale we have been able to achieve, the way people associate with it has been a blessing and surprise. The biggest thing you have learned . Stay true to what started this thing. The bigger we get, the smaller we need to act as a company. That means looking back and saying, would we make the same decision today we had when we had one . If we do, that will guarantee our success. The biggest mistake you made and how did you recover . One of the biggest is early on, we started to grow fast and go to some communities before we were ready. Early on in new york, we went to a community and learned that community was not ready for the lines and big building of shake shack to be there. We pulled out of the deal.

Thanks to the first lady and her daughters. I hope they will be successful in guiding the nation. Should i slice that . Viewers are likely to learn a lot about the otherwise private mr. Romeny. Heres what else can this documentary you saw this more human side of him. You also saw a little bit of his reticence in terms of his wanting to be a candidate. Because the staff was eliminated from this documentary film, you got to see the candidate and his family. I think you got to like him a little bit more but im not sure he really felt he wanted this. It look like this is something he was driving for or has pushed. You are running the Opposition Campaign at the time did you know there was a different met romney out there that you might have been afraid of had he been able to committee k to the public that personality . I think it was his positions that cost him the presidency and middleclass voters thought president obama was more in line with their thinking. You are in a political war fighting to the death to win. You have respect for the other side because a president ial campaign is a grueling thing. That moment you just showed is what you driven a campaign, calling your opponent to concede. You got to tip your hat to him because you know what they went through. There are obstacle courses and you feel for them because these are tough things, tough on your family.

He says the movie could provide a catalyst. There is a sense he could turn some key states he narrowly lost last time around. He can raise a lot of money very quickly. We get swept up in these moments. A few months from now, i dont think anyone will be talking about mitt romney. He has said himself he has run his last race and i think he means it.

In sports, after the Seattle Seahawks beat the San Francisco 49ers to advance to the super bowl, sunday, the seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman went on a fiery rant about his rivalry with the 49ers wide receivable wide receiver michael crabtree. [inaudible] thats the result youre going to get. Dont you ever talk about me. How is this being received and will it impact the potential sponsorships . We asked his marketing manager. The perception immediately following the game was that there is was a bad there was a lot of outcry from the public. People have to understand the switch that it takes a lot of these players to play at such a high level. It is a championship level to put your team the super bowl is not something that is a late blips on and off. There is a reason why the league usually has a 1530 minute cool off. Before there is an immediate interview. When you look at the timeline if crabtree does not shove him in the face, do we get that reaction . That set him off more. It led to emotions taking over. How do you market an athlete in the middle of a storm like this . We have been telling that story all season long. You look at richards body of work it is a Great Success story . Its amazing what he has been able to a compass from a diversity standpoint. You look at some of the greatest athletes to play this game like ray lewis for it he was a beast on the field but off the field, he is an incredible guide. There is a switch that goes on and off for these players to play. Brands are loving this right now. The feedback im getting i have a couple of brands that were questionable they have come around and are realizing that he is trending in poland, come on. What about in the case of a tiger woods where people are not responding so positively . He lost the nike deal after his scandal. Dennis rodman always seems to have a challenge getting sponsors and now he is in rehab. Scandal and at least does not necessarily work well together in terms of ad dollars,. Everyone of those contracts is language that allows them to get out of an agreement. The most common conversation among brand managers is that they will put millions of dollars behind this athlete and i dont know if they will cheat on their wife or raped some girl or killed dogs and that is real talk.

The jpmorgan turman of champions, it brings the best squash players together to compete in the Grand Central terminal in new york and we sat down with a threetime world champion, nick matthew, who spoke about how he got bigname sponsors. I think the venue speaks for itself. You see squash tournament around the world that have grass courts in front of the pier mids in cairo or on the harbor in hong kong or Grand Central station in new york and they are iconic venues. It is something amazing the jpmorgan is getting behind it. You can also make some money. I have seen you working out. You know how tough it is, the training behind the scenes. It is top so its a privilege to play in these venues on that sort of stage and at the platform. When did you start . I started at eight years old and im now 33 years old. You got a few more years. You did discrete squash, a program where you take it to the inner city and give them tutors and teach them how to play squash and get them to college. Its a great program. Theyve got street squash, city squash an amazing open programs around the country. America is leading the world in terms of getting underprivileged kids into sports and squash is amazing. The kids are so inspired to see the game. What do you tell these kids . I tell him get to Grand Central and be inspired and hopefully they can go on that court themselves.

We are looking at the Historical Context in getting back to what the reallife pirate lifestyle would have been like. Also, the economic mechanism. Once you attack a merchant ship, you get the booty and what do you do to make money out of that . Thats where you come in. Tell us about the overall story. Its a prequel to treasure island. We are looking at the island and the town of nassau. My character takes and pirate goods and sells it back to merchant ships. It looks at the way in which piracy worked as an economy and looking at how colonialization and piracy were running alongside each other. Hbo and amc are changing the way we watch stuff with interviewing and stories told over eight onehour episodes. Enacting terms it is fantastic because you get to take a character and go on this enormous journey with them. In movies, you have a short. Of time to tell a story. You have very stereotypical characters like good guys and bad guys and Love Interest where in this come you can tell these incredibly complex stories through complex characters. Know when is a hero and no one is a villain, everyone is in a gray area. You quite often fall in love of the character and you realize they have to be despicable to survive. Its an interesting story and i think it will challenge viewers. You will be able to watch this andstarz is announcing lebron james and curtis jackson. S here is thetarz ceo on the collaboration. It was an idea of his that he developed. He developed it with an african woman writer, the first black female writer for Mainstream Television that came with a great idea. We have been edited and something in that world but it is a universal story in the sense that it is about be careful what you wish for, you create a life for yourself and you get what you think what you want and you realize it is not what you want and you try to re create yourself as Something Else and its not so easy. The people you think of the right ones for you to be totally the wrong ones for you. It is a starcrossed love story. There is a lot of action. What about lebron james getting into comedy . You guys are working on a show. He partnered himself with some pretty impressive people. I thought i was not that interested in comedy but i would sit down and made this guy. I listen to the idea and i thought we will do this. We developed it and its based on loosely based on their own experience of coming out of the neighborhood the projects and finding success and at the same time feeling like you want to give back and having a lot of people who are trying to come along and hitch themselves to your wagon. Yet, realizing your Worst Nightmare is to find yourself falling back there and knowing you have to protect your future. If youre not going to watch frankenstein or black sails, at least you got the super bowl coming up. At least one point 25 billion chicken wings 1. 20 5 billion chicken wings will be consumed super bowl weekend. It is 56 past the hour in a means Bloomberg Television is hour in a means Bloomberg Television is on the markets you have the s p off by the radiating points, below 1800 points. Below the 50 day moving average. The nasdaq, the biggest loser of the day off i over 2 . It was really a slow ryan lower all day. Is the sharpest decline in the s p since june.

Particular had no relevance. Likewise, i do not inc. Anything is different about that. What triggered this . Here in the finance world we are triggering it to the weaker markets. A huge decline in the 10 year treasuryyearold as well. If you take a step back and look at all the data, we sa actually had decent ones out of your. Theres kind of a real fear over this. I think we shifted to a market and balance. Theyve gotten ready to dance with paper. We are being made to buggy. Still in control. You think this is more about still digesting the fed taper. Youre pointing to emerging markets. There are a lot of nonperforming loans. A lot of inflation. A lot of political stability. People last year made a lot of money in the stock market. Their thinking maybe i should have a look at the environment. I am not in favor of calling today a panic. Theres a lot of discriminate selling. More lower. Youre looking into the weekends. Opportunity,uying the pullback they had been waiting for . A lot of this is noise. The more global and thematic issues tend to end in pricing issues that we can take advantage of. Isarly next weeks statement the big girl in the room. Taper and more selloff. Is that what you are looking for . If you are in the bond market, we have not seen that the end of last year.
