Offer from michael dell but the question is will shareholders agree when that vote is taken, now schedule not from today but for a month or so from now and escaping the group. A now power lunch production profiling men and women who have had it with their day snobs. They are instead finding ways to to cash in big time. A great story, ty. Cant wait to sayre that. Lets look at the back of the not so super jobs report and what its going to the market. Dow jones industrial average off about 17 points, s p 500 down a fraction trying to edge towards the unchanged level. Nasdaq positive and the russell 2000 down just a fraction. The gold market last i checked turned mildly positive. Brent crude trading down half a percent and the yield is 2. 62 but the yield has been all over the map. Lets explore the benchmark tenure. Lots of ups and downs, traders committing and taking it back and recommitting. Lets see what will happen over the weekend starting with bob pasini right on the chart. Its amazing. We were 2. 75 yesterday so if youre trading that its it has been a frenetic week. And i think a lot of people got caught because the whisper number on the nonfarm payroll was 200,000 and above and im surprised the market is holding up so well. Take a look at Dow Jones Industrial average. If it wasnt from chevron being down wed be well into positive territory. Big disappointments in the oil names. Refiners, problems with the refiners, refining capacities in the last couple of Earnings Reports, so all the refiners are to the down side. Big oil is disappointed simply because theres been refining problems and royal dutch and exxon and chevron and bp have all missed and missed notably in the last couple of days. Semiconductors, downgraded the whole sector to neutral. And not just pc demand. They say high end smartphone sales may slow down so some of the big chip names, downgraded broadcom and everybodys favorite qualcomm on the upside and finally, sue, youll notice, the vix is collapsing here. Right. Down 12, the lowest almost 7 . March was essentially a sixyear low so were sitting right near the bottom. Makes me a little nervous. The value of that vix is not so great anymore. I know, thats what im saying. I dont think its reflecting what the market is really feeling so thats a whole other discussion. Lets talk about the weaker jobs report that pushed the stocks lower. Is the economy being overrated . Are investors expecting too much and James Bullard, st. Louis fed president , said the committee needs to see more data on Macro Economic performance for the second half of 2013 before making a judgment on the taper. Lets bring in Kenny Polcari along with tyler, and in washington bill rogers joins us again, a professor from rutgers and former economist at the labor department. Welcome to you all. Kenny, ill start with you. I want to take off on mr. Bullard because thats really the newest new peg to the market. Goes right to the point. Hes right. Need to see more data. As much as we continue to think its starting to turn and in some points its starting to turn but this was a big number and big miss. The whisper number was plus 200,000 so plus 160,000 is not the worst thing in the world but not the number the fed needs so once again it pushes that whole september conversation back which is why you said the market is not collapsing a little bit more because people are once again security ben is not going anywhere. Fed chief is here to stay. Id like to git get professor rogers into the conversation here and lay out a hypothesis and that is the economy is roughly stuck in the monday. As i look at the jobs numbers this morning i see sort of two economies, one that is that is thriving reasonably well and another that are having to take parttime jobs, lowpaying jobs in retail and food service and a lot of people dropping out of the labor market and in and economy where you have so much of our shared prosperity depending on all consumers having money to spend, this doesnt feel like what were seeing. What do you think . I agree with you. The way ive been describing this economy or recovery since february 2010 when we began to have private sector job growth its a pothole recovery, if you have education and the Strong Networks and live in the right communities you can prosper and do well in this kombu if youre in a community where youre seeing large suits in education and training and other social investments and jobs arent growing youre hitting the pothole and also were stuck in the mud. Like a 5050mileperhour economy. A little bit of rev up that we might continue to accelerate but clearly thats that wasnt the decision this month. Theres a lot of talk from guests that we have on that say the economy is fundamentally changed, that the jobs market has fundamentally changed, that were not going to see a large number of the jobs that were lost ever come back and we need to get used to a higher rate of unemployment bows those who are not skilled are not get jobs in whats eventually, you know, a changed economy. Think about that for a second as we go to a market plash. Were watching illinois toolworks. We have a nice intraday pop. Giving more back to its shareholders, declares a dividend of 42 Cents Per Share. The board also authorizing a 6 billion Share Repurchasing Program and you can see the move in the stack. Itw up about 20 this year. Im going back to the professor because you got an extra 30 seconds to think about that but what do you make of that hypothesis . I think its interesting. Weve been into 20, 30 years of the structural change where, you know, technology and globalization have basically they rewrote the rules of how we work, where we work and with whom we work and weve had the recession where i think, you know, players had really ramped up and pulled back and now waiting for the consumers, 70 of the income to take off again to where they are willing to raise hours of employees and also instead of hiring temp workers andport time people and move them back to fulltime, but you are right. I do a lot of work with the free landers union out of new york and their membership, the Fastest Growing union that theres a structural shift and were seeing more and more people into this economy. Does it mean we need to reright the social contract, workers used to share in the growth but in the last 20, 30 years, that is broken. Getting productivity growth but not wage growth and thats part of the resentment out there. What do we do about that . To answer your question. Sequestration and hitting the budgets with a big hammer in across ott board cuts, that was wrongheaded. The National Council on nonprofits, they have canvassed and surveyed the 50 states and looked at sequestration, and one of the programs thats taken the biggest hit is head start and nobel economists in chicago have found and done research and showed, that you know, amazing economic returns. Head start is a program that provides Early Childhood development for low minority children. Have cuts, lower jobs, and youll lower productivity in the final and the final of the other piece is it centers around institution, Public Policy and even the Federal Reserve said fiscal policy is contributing to some of the slack in the economy, that, yes, we can have rages growing but we need the federal government and Public Policy to help al gate those rages. Thanks very much. Professor, kenny, bob and sue. Well see you in a couple of minutes and when it comes to jobs. One key sector were watching is defense. In a year its up about 53 , but what about the jobs in that sector . Half. On pearson with more live in washington . You have to go inside the numbers but were starting to see concrete xemples of the sequester impacting private sector jobs. Nonauto transportation equipment manufacturing, which includes aerospace and ship building, was down 7,000 jobs last month. Now, remember, private employers dont have the luxury of furloughing workers. Weve been in contact with defense contracts who have had contracts cancelled and had to lay off highly skilled workers and risk losing them to competitors and part of their revival strategy also includes hiring more parttime workers to control health care costs. Starting to see the imprint of both obama care and the sequester. The people moving from fulltime employment to parttime for furloughs are really picking up right now, all kinds of anecdotes in the contractors to the defense try. Economists and analysts who track defensesensitive try bay beginning in the spring we started to see a slowdown in job growth while the rest of the economy was in fact trending upward. Tyler . Thanks very much. Lets go to the story that keeps on giving. Dells stock up today after the board approved a better offer from michael dell and his partners silver lake. The stock is up 5. 5 over the last week but is it really now a done deal . Josh lipton watching it all from the market desk.

We are pleased to have won yet another battle, but the war regarding dell is far from over. Through its actions today mr. Icahn is saying the special committee has finally acknowledged publicly what weve been saying all along, that michael dells value substant l substantially undervalues the company.

Congratulations again on the ipo today and continued good fortune to you. Thank you very much. Youre very welcome. Some dovish remarks from the st. Louis fed president James Bullard about the tapering and economy. Steve liesman has some details. Hi, steve. Tyler, the first fed guy out of the box since the meeting to give remarks, and hes suggesting the fed needs a little more data before it starts tapering. I wanted to read you the quote from his comments, quote, the committee needs to see more data on Macro Economic performance for the second half and before making a judgment on this matter, the matter being tapering so no immediate action. James bullard urging caution based on policy action based on forecasts rather than what the data is saying right now. Many factors are slowing the u. S. Economy, and he says he had been too optimistic in the past and so a little reluctant to be too optimistic now. Tyler . Lets go down to the nyse. Sue is down there talking to traders. But let me ask you a question, steve. Does the data that came out today suggest that the fed may not start tapering until later in the year . There have been all kinds of talk it would be september. Whats your thinking now or the thinking youre hearing from your sources . I dont believe it was definitive either way. There was hope threat be plus 200 or minus 900. I peel like its in the netterworld. You have the declining Unemployment Rate that gets the fed closer but relatively weak job growth and the internals were not encouraging, wage growth and the hours per workweek was not terrific. Sue . Id like to pose the same question to you that i did to the professor that we had on earlier and that is weve seen a lot of changes in the economy since 2008. Companies are doing more with less and the job structure seems to have changed. People working one or two jobs instead of one better job, you know, with benefits. Are we looking at a fundamentally changed economy and does that mean we might never get back to those better employment numbers . I hope thats not true. I dont think thats the case, sue. First of all, recessions tend to accelerate trends and i think were at a trend of more efficient companies, companies doing more with less, so i think the recession accelerated that. We cannot know, and it would be an amazing amount of hubris to suggest that you know what the jobs will be in the future. It would be like being in the 19th century and saying at the end theres no more horse and buggy business. Were in a very particular time, sue, where we dont understand the impact of productivity on job growth. We used to think it created jobs but it might not. Having such a minimal impact and some have said the halt in the rise in the rates is why markets arent rising more rapidly. I think we need more data points for august until people think theres an economic slowdown going on and most of the traders i talked to say the data is getting incrementally better. What do you think . If you put that chart back up, that 160 to 260 move, thats 100 basis points, and thats telling me the bottom market is priced in with some movement pretty soon by the fed so im saying 2. 70 the taper is on. Show me 2. 25 and ill show you a attorneyyear thats priced out to taper in december. Good place to leave it. Thanks, everybody. Appreciate it. All right. To the gold market right now. Prices are closing and Bertha Coombs is tracking the action at the nasdaq. Gold is closing pretty much flat and did back up around 1,300 overnight low and the jobs report being weak and while fund get back into gold. Golds etf is at a fouryear low in terms of holding. The commodity of the week is copper. Weve got the good pmi numbers out of china. China now with its first weekly gain in four weeks. Back to you. What a wild, wild week it has been in the bond market. Rick santelli tracking the action at the cme. Ricky, over to you. Wild is okay sometimes, sue, because the market is trying to handicap whats going on in the economy. Many could argue that the markets been taken over, but today you would have never known it. We get a weak report and yields moved out. Makes perfect sense, whether you look at the intraday or open it up to about midjune, the key is still the same technically. Remember, a couple of points. The lump side of that chart, the one high, a 261 yield close. Right where were at, a key technical area. On the bigger picture. Well, the bigger picture, still up on the weekly close last week. The dollar index moved down and rates moved down. That makes sense and if you look at the technicals and the dollar index, still rather spongy, especially under 81. 50. Tyler, back to you. Actually, rick, ill ill take it so much. The case against s. A. C. Capital may hinge to some extent on richard lee who was hired by s. A. C. After being fired from a new job at credit dell. Pet Peter Lattman joins us now to tell us more. Hes had a significant impact, sue. What happened here was not so much what he did at s. A. C. But before s. A. C. At citadel on his first day on the job running a trading desk he went into the Accounting System and mismarked his book and improved his p l by about 4. 5 million. They caught him and fired him the next morning. Whats interesting about that. A year later he was hired by s. A. C. Capital management. He was employees by a sit sell employee that cook was the a bad game. The now know that steve cohen will be liable for the charges brought by the government against him so that will strengthen the governments case against him. Its interesting. Every bank is still trading with s. A. C. Capital, very much . Business. Its a solid trading partner even though its operating under indictment and yesterday the ceo made an announcement and this came on the same day that Fabrice Tourre was found guilty of stealing from investors.

The state department issuing a Worldwide Travel warning for u. S. Citizens, namely concerning travel to the middle east and north africa. This as the state department shuts u. S. Embassies in middle east countries due town specified threats. A report now from cairo with the very latest on this story. Good evening, yousef reporter Worldwide Travel alert coming on the back of concerns that attacks would intensify and possibly some attacks in the month of august. Again, that comes on the back of the closure, the decision to close several u. S. Embassies. In fact most embassies this part of the world on sunday. Theres still a working day but not shower we know how long the threat will last. The state Department Said they should initiate preliminary steps as a precautionch the Worldwide Travel alert expires on august 31st and you can see a flurry of activity from the u. S. State department and theres a question of whether there would be any disparities in the way they deal with this from country to country, and, remember, that these u. S. Embassies are very heavily fortified, be it in riyadh, bahrain or here in cairo. Of course, investors will have a very cool sign on this, the region as a whole, very Important Oil producers and oil exporter as well, and perhaps keep in mind that sunday is president obamas birthday and also we have the event of the inauguration of the iranian president. Those are some events well watch out for and, of course, protests continue here in cairo. A lot of cross currents this that part of the world. Thank you very much. Local governments gone while.

They are argue the now. One said thailand is prone to earthquakes and building a new plant could be dangerous and the other said eneed the choice. The wealthy say they want to keep going, why . Were hearing all the time americans cant akois they cant afford to. Nearly a f 15 of the top earners say they never plan on retire but most of those earners less than 100,000 and they plan to retire before 65. Why arent the rich retiring . After all they are the group that can afford to stop working, but most of these top earners are entrepreneurs. They are more likely than any other group to credit hard work for the success and they like to take risk. As entrepreneurs, however, their life is their company and their company is their life. To them its really not work. Its fun, what they love to do. Lets think of john malone trying to shake up the cable industry at 72 and steve wynn overseeing his giant casino at 71.

Speaking of jobs, if youre job hunting while at work youre not alone and soon you may not be able to say a lot of things in seattle. Plus from lawyer to legos, how a man who could not read another legal document took a big risk next on power lunch. The premiere of escaping the cube, stories of professionals who left the cubicle behind. Well, if you hate your job, youre probably not alone. What are you doing about it . Answers in a new power lunch production, escaping the cube. I had to go up to the 42nd floor in the Corner Office and tell the partner i work for that im leaving the practice to go play with toys. Hi. Im nathan, and im a lego brick artist. But i used to be a lawyer. I was doing corporate law, m a and securities, very exciting stuff. I was working on billion dollar deals. These were huge transactions which to some very exciting, but i wasnt i wasnt fulfilled, and i needed something else, so i started creating, you know, little sculptures here and there at night while i was still working as an attorney. Im outlining this one for actual bricks. I put a website together that had really got attention around the world from random folks who enjoyed lego art, and thats what led to people actually paying me to create artwork out of legos. When my website crashed from too many hits i realized its time to make a change. I worked in the metlife building and i had to go up to the 42nd floor in the Corner Office and tell the partner i worked for that im leaving the practice to go play with toys. It really was a result of making the transition in my life. I had a lot of people who were telling me no, youre crazy. Youre making a mistake and it frustrated me. It was a bit liberating and also a bit scary because i was going from a sixfigure salary to a lifestyle that i didnt really know how it was going to work. Would i be able to pay rent . I let my legal license expire so that it would be kind of a kick in the pants to make sure i gave all my effort to this new endeavor. Its surreal at times when i see people lining up at the door to get into the exhibition. The way he creates three dimensionality with lego is mindblowing. The whole goal in what ive done is really pushing where a lego can go. Where else can we take lego . Now im experiencing with photography and these days financially im doing better than when i was a lawyer so it was the right decision. Fantastic story. President clinton, andre agassi and donald trump have all had lego sculptures made for them, and some of these works of lego do go for six figures. Ty, im going to pay real good attention to when my son daniel plays with his legos whether or not we can train him to do that. Good idea. Power rundown, jane wells is on board and in seattle allison lynn who wrote an article called job hunting at work, youre not alone. You wrote that more and more people are looking for jobs while they are employed on company time. Yeah. I guess can you look at this two ways. One, its really rude and a faux pas, and the other is people feel more confident about their job prospects. Exactly. More jobs out there and more people are saying ive been here five years, maybe they havent had a raise, natural more people will start looking around when the job market gets better. Jane wells seems to be taking a call there. I want to send my resume to the lego artist guy. Kidding, okay. Heres the deal. When are you supposed to look for a job . The hr department, and by the way, ty, when is the new boss looking to find your replacement, after hours, no, i dont think so. Interesting thing. I guess a lot of people look for jobs in their time at work. Lets move on to another one. The United States post office wants to deliver booze.
