Innovative ways to invest in america. Thats why were here today. But first, take a look at this market. Holy cow. Did it happen again . The Federal Reserve issues a statement, things get better, Interest Rates might have to go up early next year. Really scary. That statement of commonsense is in a sellmore panic. S p 500 declining. 6 prkt. This show is coming to you tonight from the starbucks annual meeting in seattle. I dont know if its wake up and smell the coffee moment. Everything the fed has been saying, some entity had to help grow this economy. Higher rates being sell, sell, sell. For most of the professionals who take action, yes, indiscriminantly. So, when they perk up as they did, they sell. Kind of unrealistic, as business gets better it will indeed happen. Forgive me for playing the role of the cooler head in the field. For the entity of this miraculous run, the fed has said if the economy catches fire, rates may rise over time. It em boldens this fed to take notice. One day, not soon, one day rates will indeed have to be raised if this strength continues. Thats called, doing what comes naturally. While short term its jarring very jarring as it was today. Stocks only go higher if businesses ultimately is getting better, which is what we want to happen now. Better business means better sales. More sales means bigger profits. When profits grow, stocks go higher. If Interest Rates as they did today, thats the course of business. Its true, for a long time, stocks have been going higher because their management has been able to borrow money to sell back shares. Let so many people go sadly and still had sales grow just a little bit. They can return capital in higher dividends. Those are the reasons why weve gotten this high. Almost all of these stocks went down today, as some investors believe the cycle came to an end at 2 01 p. M. Eastern time when the fed released its statement. Believe me, if this stock is going to charge much higher today, then the economy in the u. S. Must absolutely get better. Because that will help not just the bottom line, which is impacted positively by the buybacks but the sales line. Better economic environment. Yes, to get stillhigher stock prices, instead of the stall out in 2014, we have to get used to before the Great Recession happen. The fed under janet yellen is no different undthan under ben bernanke. If things get worse, theyll do best to continue its easy course. Thats right, if you want the stock market to go higher, you no longer want the status quo that kept it low, you want the economy to improve. How much can you take out of the supply chain . How many people can you fire . Ceo from the International Companies are more concerned than ever of china. They need the u. S. Economy to get better in order to save the top line. They want the fed to take rates up, at least over time. More people are getting jobs, theyre for more spending. Everyone benefits when prices get higher. Again, thats called comm commonsense. As you know, look, you know which groups of Companies Need the economy to get healthier, the banks, which by the way, still the Largest Group of stocks in the entire market. As is typical with this market, as the feds statement was released, including the one that goes up, they have a few minutes later, the hedge funds know whether to buy or sell all stocks, the buyers did indeed circle back to the banks. So many bigtime investors hate this group because they dont believe rates are going up. If you sparse the fed statement, they think things are getting better, hence the rise in Interest Rates. Of course, that doesnt mean the banks when the selling squall is over, i think theyll leave this market. Banks will be able to buy buy more stock and buy back more dividends. Now, what else happens after the futures end . We circle back to the company that are actually doing well, as their stocks are hostile to the futures. In order to know which companies should go higher, you need to get out in the field and speak to executives in person. Thats why were coming to you from seattle, youll hear from nordstroms, Seattle Genetics, zillow, the worlds online largest real estate site and starbucks. Were coming to you from the annual meeting of starbucks, 4,000person pilgrimage. So, here s the bottom line, sure, the investors have put the fiveyear rally on the Federal Reserve, feel the need to sell which they think the fed has reaped. Regardless of slightly higher Interest Rates. Those stocks will be winners, not losers. Despite the fact, along with stocks of so many other companies were buried today on the possibility that one day, things will indeed actually get better in this countrys economy. Mad money will be right back in a moment. Coming up spotlight on cement. The Companies Leading the push towards whats next in retail, health and housing.

Miss something head to mad money at cnbc. Com. E. Flew all of the way out to seattle for one big reason the starbucks annual shareholder meeting. Starbucks isnt just any company, im not saying merely because they have a location on nearly every corner. Its the ultimate proof that you can beat the markets on individual stocks. On the ipo back in 1992 you would have over 14,200 gain. That position would be worth 1. 42 million. A gain thats deserving given the companys Phenomenal Growth rate. Thanks to the ceo howard schultz. Mr. Schultz, welcome back to mad money and thank you so much for having us here. Thank you jim for coming all of the way to seattle from new york. You introduced someone today who actually move the needle for a major innovation for starbucks. Lets start with the opportunity. Tea is a global category that we believe that has been xhod tiezed and ripe for innovation, really transform tea and teavana. We discovered that oprah is passionate about tea. What came about, authenticataut, she loves tea. We created oprah chai tea, twil be in the stores in time for mothers day. Most of the proceeds will go back to help youth get access to education. Howard, if there was any celebrity, i would say, you know what, this is for show, jim, dont drink the chai tea, i have done a lot of work on the oprah effect shes able to make it so sales are bigger. I know that teavana was a good acquisition, i visit td your store in new york, what will the new teavana look like . Well, interesting enough, since 1971, when starbucks was founded, we know from Research Many of your coffee drinkers drink tea as well. The fact that were going to raise so much awareness inside starbucks for 70 million people, its going to raise all votes at starbucks. At the same time, it will create so awareness and traffic for the teavana brand. Youll work into a teavana store, youll see significantly display and visual and expression of oprah chai and clearly, oprah, among, the most popular we hear all of the tea in china, will these stores uniquely also with oprah, will there be separate teavana, given the fact that yum has kfcs in 900 different cities. I think china will have 4,000 to 5,000 stores when were all said and done. Second largest market in the world for starbucks. Are we going to accelerate our u. S. Store growth . Were going to accelerate that because we have had such a strong position, the new stores we have opened have been best in can class. All of the teavana will house oprah chai in it. The idea of people thought of you moving into ceo, you were transitioning away from the company, within starbucks is this hidden gem that shouldnt be hidden anymore, because it may be the answer not for just for your place for every retailer around the world. Starbucks has been a consensusdriven management structure. We sit down and we discuss things together. My change in responsibility is really not that significant in terms of the operational piece, im still in the meetings, the issue, though, we have an amazing, stunning opportunity within mobile payments and social and digital media. The fact that we have a lead isnt the issue. Thats the price of admission. Were going to reinvent and we believe create an opportunity for a new source of revenue complementary for our core business. Complementary, it might not all be within. If i was the coceo of chipotle, can i call you, howard, i would like to license your technology . Youre a step ahead of most people, we are getting calls from retailers of all kinds asking whether or not we would white label yes, e this is the key. What we have done. Its too premature to say exactly what were going do. We realize we have created something thats highly viable. And most traditional retailers dont have the competency to make the investment we have. Im going to go back over this. I wait in line at whole foods. I dont want to wait in line. I no e what i want to buy at whole foods. If i were coceo of whole foods, i dont want to lose cramers business, i want to get white label business, this can be a reality of 2015. Youre going down radiothe right track, but its premature to comment on that. Now, ubs, a good firm, has been building the neutral case, they are saying once you start analyzing, you know what, wait a second, foods not doing well. You have their numbers. You can tell me if thats not the case. Thats wrong. We are seeing almost in every market that it opens up food, were seeing incrementalty not only in core foods, baa because we have food lot of people worry we solved the problem of higher coffee prices. But, are you finding there are people who bought those cards for others, this is the gift of choice that you talked about in january, are indeed buying other things than coffee. We have seen incrementalty behind the face cards. In terms of reloads. This is a big piece. The majority of people who receive gift card, arent everyday starbucks customers. Okay, i want to ask you a question about natural and organic and you talked about some people dont really care, thats too much of a short answer, tell us how important that people find natural and organ organic . I think for so much heres the issue, starbucks has to be in the business of selling indulgent products as well as Natural Products, its a fine balance and it can be fragile. The irony of the situation, when we have taken the step to bring highly Natural Products or glutenfree products to the store, more often than not, not always, they havent sold. Were in business to satisfy our k customers. When i think of starbucks five years from now, would i consider it be in the aisles of Grocery Stores or second . Our core business will retail, multiple formats in addition to starbucks and i think the starbucks store footprint will be larger in scale than most people understand. You have given a lot to chew on. Thank you, howard schultz. Thank you for being so gracious to let our crew come in to do the show. Thank you. Coming up timeless fashion . Founded from the spoilers of the gold rush. Nordstrom, the new concepts in Technology Helped retailer continue its growth into the next century, cramer has an exclusive with ceo, blake nordstrom.

While were at seattle, were going to try to get a read on Many Industries as possible, were sitting down with nordstrom, jgen, the highend retailer, if the weather can take off. They dont a lot of tv. To be able to talk to the ceo blake nordstrom. Thank you for having me in your town. Thank you. Youre the service department, so much more happening at nordstrom, can you give the future of the company, what it will look like three years from now, from what our parents thought about nordstrom . I dont know if anyone has that kind of crystal ball to accurately portray the future. We want our strategy grounded in the customer. The closer we get to customer, the clearer it gets about our strategy and how we should be spending our time and the shareholder money. Theres talk of omni channel. We have an ecommerce perk, an rack business and this online business. The customer can shop on their terms, the customer views it as one channel. Theres a conundrum, youre 11 billion market gap, you have the best fullservice Department Store and its adding units. You have what recognizes the fastest dot. Com, the fastest offprice company, the rack and you have hautelook. Youre frustrating people because your spending so much money on technology. 50 of the company will be in three years . You summarized it well. The next five years, Capital Spending is 3. 9 million. Its accelerating. We want to lay that groundwork and planting those seeds for the capabilities with the way the customer wants to shop. We theres a lot of work to be done. When that return is going to materialize. Were not clearer on some of the specific numbers for the future. We know its imperative in front of the customer to be doing that. So, were working hard. Lot going on. Its a very dynamic and fluid time now. Across the road is amazon, i regard amazon as the an thesis. Jim, from the customers point of view, lot of customers today view good service through amazon. They may not be interfacing with a live person, but the experience. We have to broaden our experience. Part of that is a great website, easy to navigate, part of that is a great supply chain, being able to deliver on that. Youre right, were fortunate to have a terrific competitor right here in seattle with amazon, so were very mindful of some of their strengths. Okay, some other great merchants who recognize thats change is acoming, limited. At certain point, do you have to accept the fact that in order to be able to get a higher price, rack has to stand on its own, given thats much more successful than most of the offprices. Were trying to whether or not its ecommerce to unleash that. What their Top Competitors are, that top group. Both ecommerce and rack, we try to benchmark ourselves against that and were really proud of our teams. You certainly have exceeding the numbers. Is it relevant for young people . Brickandmore or thes arent going away and malls arent going away. Customers at the their fingertip, has the availability and as a xhmerchant if you don execute along that line, theyre going to navigate away from that. Some stores that go away . Yes. Our challenge is, are we current and are we relevant . Do we have a compelling reason why a customer would want to shop with us . How much does it matter for all of these things that you just mentioned, youre still a Family Business with a family culture . I guess im biased on that. Were a Public Company. We became public in 71, were trying to be the best Public Company were trying to do. Were very appreciative of thousands of people before us that built a reputation that were proud of and weve got a team that we think can really take can care of the customer and move this company forward. Can this 1123growth company, we have a shortterm glitch and the growth nordstrom, maybe being obscured by the weather, youre about to break out on the earnings basis . I dont think we can use weather as an excuse, but it is true, this last weather, we have never had that many stores closed. Its behind us. So, were excited about the opportunities this spring and going forward. We got to earn that one customer at a time. All right, blake nordstrom, president of jwn. Congratulations on what your family has accomplished. Coming up buyers market .

Whats your policy . While were at seattle, we got a chance to check in one of the fastgrowing, Controversial Company out there, zillow, the mecca of Online Realty company. Lot of evidence that houses could be heating up, zillow has rocketed 12 bucks less than a week. Lets check with spencer, the ceo of this company. Welcome back to mad money. Thanks, jim. Spencer, we have had tremendous growth here. Traffic growing, 57 . At the same time, we had a fed meeting today and spent, spencer, a lot of peoples perception was that rates have to go higher, impact on zillow, what would it mean . The 30year fixed is 4. 2 . A year from now, 5 . Mortgage rates are definitely going up. Yeah, its going to cool housing a little bit as Mortgage Rates go up. Theres been this backlog of buyers interest the last couple of years. Okay, theres also a lot of talk there could be an affordability problem. Youre actually the keeper of home prices in this country, is it affordability an issue . Home values bounced off the bottom very quickly. Were up 25 from the bottom. Right now, home values are increase 6 . So, the rate of appreciation is slowing, but its still quite high relative to the normal 2 to 4 appreciation rate. Still parts of the growing growing at 20 over the year. Thats unsustainable. All right, lets talk about this socalled controversy about zillow, here you have done youve grown much faster than the industry, youre twice as large. People feel that trulia has decided to step up their ad budget. You say, this just raises awareness for everyone in the market. Probably the most misunderstood thing of zillow is the size of the market that we participate in. They have moved their shopping from offline to online, to the web, from the web to the smartphone, thats where we dominate and thats where the audience is. I think most of the 10 billion that agents spend on advertising moves online. Im reading the research of morgan stanley, smart guy, hes done his thing, he said you and tr trulia are nearly identical. You beg to differ . I do. Who ends up with the lion share of the audience. When one newspaper had 60 or 70 of the audience, all of the classified dollars moved to the bigger sites. The Sticking Point it doesnt matter. At the lower level theres a tipping point. Zillow is the largest site in every city in the u. S. You only need to be in one . Yes. Let me ask you about an ethical conflict, there are agents who advertise, can an agent who advertises get special preference be able to move a negative review that someone who doesnt pay couldnt touch . No, they cant. I get a lot of angry emails from agents. Thats the rule of the game. We have over 500,000 reviews of agents, not all of them are good. Thats okay. We empower the consumer with information. The lender advertises goes with your new lender. Be a better lender you wont get a bad review. Okay, lets say, i look at it, i want people to understand the negatives because this is what people short. If you want to take on the shorts, other people say, listen the better way to get leads for agents is through google. That has the highest. How do you explain they have 11. 4 lead versus your 8. 3. For a to advertise on google, it drives you to website. Most real estate at thes have to advertise on home sites. We have home shoppers on mobile as well as desktop. Twothirds of our audience is now on mobile. One of the things that i saw, the bang for the buck is extraordinary. Most real estate agents, if they spend 1,000 advertising with us, they earn 1,000 commission. Its a very significant roi. Theyre more likely to buy more inventory. You bought a Company Called street easy, lot of people felt, wait a second, zillow doesnt work in new york, you answered a lot of reservations when you bought streetez. Im a new yorker as well. Zillow was the largest real estate site besides new york. Very smart. Were taking it to mobile. Street ez has an opportunity to do better across all platform. Reporter one last question, you broke some news today about your preapproval situation. So, zillow mortgage marketplace launched the first product, you can get preapproved for a loan instantously for free without talking to a lender. You need to be preapproved. Thank you, Spencer Rascoff the ceo of zillow. Letter z. You see why theyre the winner. Stick with cramer. Coming up healthy look . Seattle genetics has put cancer squarely in the sights of its technology. Will this breakthrough science compel its stock higher . R . So ally bank has a raise your rate cd that wont trap me in a rate. Thats correct. Cause im really nervous about getting trapped. Whys that . Uh, mark . Go get help i have my reasons. Look, you dont have to feel trapped with our raise your rate cd. If our rate on this cd goes up, yours can too. Oh that sounds nice. Dont feel trapped with the ally raise your rate cd. Ally bank. Your money needs an ally. Lately we have seen a lot of action in the smaller develop stage biotechs, if you want to an investable biotech company, how about Seattle Genetics. Search and destroy cancer cells. A big improvement over chemotherapy. One drug on the market and the company has an i amazing pipeline, including a lot of latestage drugs. Lets take a closer look with the chairman president ceo of Seattle Genetics. We talked a lot about the sectors, about whats selling now, drug companies, strictly biotechs dont trade on that, what they do is they trade on the pipeline. I havent spoken to you about how really broad it is. You have the floor. We have three that im really excited about. We have a drug that targets leukemia and lymphoma. Complete remission in patients. Its early. Its certainly a drug that has antitumor activity. The second drug is the drug targeted to the worst type of leukemia called acute myola were in Clinical Trials. So thats a drug that well put out data later this year. The third drug in the pipeline is for Breast Cancer, it targets 90 of woman with Breast Cancer, its an exciting drug that were investing in, all three of these are in Clinical Trials. We went on your website, there was a trial that began for this Breast Cancer drug, i like to present information, thats still open for people if they want to be in on the trial. It is. Its a phase one, were still working on the doses and upping the doses to do larger trials. You mentioned this other trial that it seems, it could be so promising, why not open it . I know youre talking about its been on for three years, maybe at the end of the year, opening, if its so good why not open it now . We have a lot of different trials with different drugs. We expand trials all the time. Were a patientfocus company. Were working to help cancer patients. Again, one of the things that occurs to me, how do you get people to be in your trials when a lot of what you do is for people who are about to die . Yeah, thats the nature of trials, the nature of Clinical Trials and cancer, these are patients whats conventional first and havent responded. Or responded briefly and then relapsed for a company developing clinical cancer products, we need those patients to sign up for these trials and its a really Good Relationship there. Doctor, im sure there are instances where you believe an idea for taking it for a relapse while good, could be a good first line, how does it work that someone says, you know what, this is really good for relapse, i wish i could give it a shot, thats a good idea, how does that process happens . We have shown and approved for two different diseases. In relapsed patients. We have gone ahead and tested it in frontline patients in a combination and we have seen very high efficacy. Now, we have two frontline trials designed and theyre acuring patients for tcell lymphoma that havent been redefined for over three decades. Were investing deeply for the patients. I also like, you is a pretty no vel but incredibly good way of getting paid, your company has a great balance sheet, some research, you is a possibility of 4. 5 billion in potential milestone payments if everything goes right. Were first and foremost a drug company. We make drugs for cancer patients. Sales in 2013 were greater than 250 million globally. Thats our lead product and we have other products in our pipeline. The second part of our business we partner our technology with other companies and with that, we have received over 250 million in payments to date and a potential of over 4. 5 billion in milestone payments plus royalties on top. Thats the second part of our business. In the second half of the year, you got there are some approval that come in the second half of this year. Yeah, there are a number of exciting things. One thing is very important is, we have a phased 3, unblinding later this year, sometimes, second half of the year, its a maintenance trial in hodge kins lymphoma. Docs need to know, they treat the patient and need to know, should i keep the patient on this drug . This will help. Its the next level, youre going to be in the top five real soon. Thank you, clay. Stay with cramer. When money talks it comes to cramer first. Why are you bullish on our company . We see the huge recovery potential in the united states. Were in control of our destiny in this country. In our industry, youre either riding that innovation curve or not. Watch mad money and be the first to know. What have we learned today . Seattle genetics, nordstrom, zillow and starbucks. Something so profound running through these four companies, you know what it is, technology. Now, we expect to see Brilliant Technology when we speak to Seattle Genetics. Its biotech by nature. If Seattle Genetics doesnt employ the highest reaches of technology, it cant compete with the big behemoths. To me, though the real story out there is the enterprises that have become stealth technologyi technologyists. Blake nordstrom said about his familynamed company it needs to stay competitive with amazon. It has to spend, spend on tech. It may not be enough to compete with them. Zillow pure and simple is a technology company. It has taken the homebuying business and organize it into a customer business. How can they do this . That rationalized the business of real estate using technology. First with desktop and then with mobile. It unites buyers with sellers. Finally starbucks, what can i say about starbucks . Today, its chose to emphasize tea, link up with oprah, what else did i hear out there . The digital and mobile are the keys to growing the Retail Business at a rate to keep the engine of this company going. If starbucks handles all of the business it has, most importantly the morning, it has to anticipate your order and get you out of there as fast as possible to get to the next customer. This country may run on another coffee company, but you can say that starbucks runs on technology. Stealth technology. Its the secret behind many of the Successful Companies that you never thought needed tech to prosper. Now i think they cant prosper without. Stick with cramer. Iwe dont back down. We only know one direction up so were up early. Up late. Thinking up gamechanging ideas, like this dozens of tax free zones across new york state. Move here. Expand here.

Premium costs are going way up and its harder to get decent cancer care. Now is the time to go after the key russian oligarchs right now. That according to the man who wrote the wall street column that shows how to really hurt russia. Hes going to join us th
