Ntsb announcing they will launch a go team to investigate the accident. That came out moments ago. Investigation into the crash. Youre seeing pictures on the screen right now. Lots of news coming out on this. Tariq, i quill start with you, youre wellknown covering space issues. What do you make of what is going on tonight . What do you expect out of this press conference . This is definitely a sad day for both the families involved and Virgin Galactic as well as commercial spaceflight industry in general. And, i guess what were, really hoping to find out what do we know right now that happened . We have heard anecdotal reports so far about the drop and, and, the initial engine ignition. Of course the breakup and the crash. Were hoping to know who was killed in the crash, the status of the other pilot and what investigation. Because there is sure to be one, will be like out there in mojave. Gerri tom jones, to you, youre a former astronaut. You were on the space shuttle, many flights. Youve walked in says. What do you make of this news tonight. Jerry it is a set back for commercial tourism in space but i dont think it is the end at all. I think several companies will keep up momentum towards carrying people into space as passengers. It is an education. People should not think of the Space Tourism business as airliner flight. This is experimental vehicle. Even when passengers start to fly, better rutan, the designer said it will be like safety level with airliners back in the 1920s. We who have been in Space Business for a while, we understand nature of these vehicles. A lot of high energy, a lot of demanding physics. Not surprising, a crash like this was inevitable. Im glad it came without passengers on board. Gerri give you a tweet from Richard Branson himself. Thoughts with all Virgin Galactic and scale. Thanks for all the messages of support. Im flying to mojave immediately to be with the team. Richard branson that runs the company will be on sight shortly. I should say the presser is starting right now. Well go right to it. George white sides. With me in the room is kevin mickey. I dont see kevin right this second. Be right out. Okay, be right out. President of scale composite. Just briefly, our day began about 2 00 this morning with, the evolution of a spaceship ii, white knight ii, powered flight four was the name of this particular test. Takeoff occurred at 9 20 this morning. My team and i were present at entire evolution. Release of spaceship ii occurred at approximately 10 10 a. M. At approximately 10 12 we became aware of an inflight anomaly and implemented our preplanned response plan. My team was dispatched to the north. The chief will discuss that and the sheriff will discuss his involvement. I had confirmation of a mishap just a few moments later. Approximately 25 miles north of the airport. We were given a latitude, longitude of a potential site. At times like these those of us in the Aerospace Valley recognize we engage in our craft freely. Ive been in it 45 years. We recognize the contribution we make to a nation, the traveling public and the the general contribution to an amazing industry that provide transportation to the entire world. But when we have a mishap from the Test Community we find the Test Community is very small. And were human. And it hurts. And, our hearts thoughts, prayers, absolutely with families of victims. We do know one of the crewmembers was was met by emergency responders, treated on the scene and transported to Antelope Valley hospital. We also know we had one fatality. I want to also acknowledge the artisans, craftsmen, engineers, the emergency responders, the technicians, the janitors, everybody in this industry that gives it their all every single day. These parking lots are filled seven days a week. No one is forcing these people to do this. I cant speculate at this time on the cause. I know george is going to address that. Again, chief, and donnie, i want to say thanks to the emergency responders. You guys have been with us and you will be with us every step of the way for years. And to your team personally, we say thanks. At this time turn it over to george for a statement. Chief . Our pardon me, sheriff. Sheriff donny youngblood. The involvement of the Sheriffs Office will be in the lead. I got a call there had been anomaly and mishap. I flew out, flew around the crash site. It is a large area. The aircraft is in several different pieces. We found one person who was obviously deceased immediately. The other was transported to the hospital. I dont have the condition we left here. It appeared to be major injuries. But, we dont know if that is what really what that means yet. But we. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. We hope the survivor will be just fine. Gerri so you have been listening to a press conference in the Mojave Desert where hours ago today, Virgin Galactic spaceship ii crashed into the desert. There is one fatality. We have guests on hand with a press conference. We have no reasons for the crash. No one at the press conference was describing why. I want to go to tom, tom jones, the former astronaut who has been watching this. What the original speaker ceo stuart whit said the contribution we make gives transportation to the entire world. Were looking for more immediate answers as to what caused crash. What do you make of it . I think this is the 55th test flight for spaceship ii. They were testing a new engine propellant combination. They have had delays development of this engine design. The development with the plastic and nitrous oxide of two propellants something went wrong after ignition despite many test runs on the ground. Obviously an engine failure looks like. You will have to unpack telemetry from the data and find out what caused the explosion. It will be up to Richard Branson and colleagues to decide the pace they replace spaceship ii and begin the test program again. Gerri tariq, what do you make of next steps here . What happens next. As tom mentioned, the kind of next immediate step to definitely understand what the a mom any was. Was it traced back to the engine. What was it about the new proehl pep lent or new mod poe appellant or new modification that caused that to happen. I spoke with george white earlier this month, ahead of this test, he mentioned rocket powered flight test was imminent, that it was coming soon and they were actually at that time still about 40 percent or so done with the next version. So they have already begun construction of the second vehicle in this fleet. Obviously that work might be paused while they take a look what, what safety improvements or changes might need to be put into place. Gerri we just heard from the press conference that the investigation of this crash is expected to take several days. As we know the ntsb will be on the scene. They have a go team prepared to investigate this as well. You heard also from Richard Branson from twitter no less, his first thoughts on this. I want to review quickly here, what was planned . This was supposed to be Space Tourism and already the company signed up 700 people for flights next year at a price of some 250,000 each. Mr. Branson said he, he wanted to be on the very first flight with his mother. Lots of celebrities signed up, paying this total. Of Something Like 80 million to ride on these planes. Last thoughts before we take a break, tom to you. You mentioned before that spaceflight is full of fits and starts. What do you say . I think this is going to go forward. I think this will expose more people broadening to spaceflight, conducting business into space, expanding industry to space. Companies like Virgin Galactic will be part of this. We knew there with would be accidents. Everybody one knows this. Question how fast the community can recover. Test of enthusiasm Going Forward how quickly and branson and his colleagues bounce back. Gerri thank you so much for being with us today. Great information. Great perspective. Wee appreciate your time. We have a lot more to come, including voter fraud. Are votes counted correctly.

Gerri we are just four days away from one of the most important midterm elections in a long time. The balance of power in congress is at stake. Many contests expect to be extremely tight. It is critical every vote is counted correctly. There are tonight new concerns over voter fraud. Fox news anchor and Senior Correspondent eric shawn has been investigating and is here now. How big of a problem is this. Great to be with you. I really cantay there is no voter fraud. Happens around the country. Seemingly new cases. Last week a woman in tennessee was indicted with vote buying. Two guilty pleas cocaine and cash for votes, trading coke for votes. Would you sell your vote . Gerri no. In tennessee, 8,000, 8,000 people over a series of elections sold their votes for 25, 50 bucks, one person sold their vote, for 800. The politicians down there spent 400 grand over a period to steal the elections. How about voting more than once, two or three times this is symbolic case. She was a poll worker in cincinnati. She was accused voting eight times. She pled to voting four times. Twice, in the 2012 president ial election, said she was proud of it. She did it. She is out of jail now. As part of that investigation they also caught a nun, a nun who even committed voter fraud. Let me tell you this, this another big one. These are petitions that put the president of the United States on ballot in indiana. He legally actually did not qualify . In 2008, in indiana, to get on the ballot, when you run for president you have to have 500 signatures from each congressional district. Up in st. Joseph county, south bend, notre dame, mr. Obama in 2008 qualified with 534 signatures. 34 cushion. Hillary at 704. 90, 90 are fake. They faked them. Four people convicted. One sentenced to jail. If it came out middle of president ial campaign, fraud touch ad race for white house, what do you think that would do . Not saying that he was improperly elected. But just the fact if this made public, it was three years after it happen people dont belief this could potential touch a race for highest office in the land. Gerri what about i. D. . What about showing i. D. Before you vote . I cant buy cold medication without an i. D. How come i can vote without an i. D. . Into that is controversial issue. Some states have voter i. D. Some with photo and i. D. Some not. People in texas, which has one of the strictest laws, people are reporting to have problems getting eye december. Rhode island a blue state. Democratic governor. Democratic state legislature. Democratic secretary of state loves voter i. D. S. They have had no problems. 585,000 people voted in rhode island. 186 did not have i. D. S because voted by provisional ballot because there are ways to potentially vote. That will be controversial issue. Well hear after the election, lawsuits will start from people who say they could not get an i. D. Lead plaintiff of aclu case in philadelphia couldnt get one they filed a lawsuit. She walked in got one. Gerri unbelievable reporting a rick shaun. Terrific reporting. Thank you. Gerri with us the hans with the heritage foundation. One of countrys foremost experts on voter fraud. We are joined by Emily Tish Sussman who thinks voter fraud is not a problem. Emmillly, you say it is not a problem. Her pervasive is it it and why in your issue is not issue. With all due respect to reporting we talked about, Washington Post looked into every al alleged case of voter fraud since 2000 and 2014 and found 31 cases. 31 cases out of over a billion. We dont often use that term in serious way. Over a billion vote cast. I dont think you need to be math major to figure out that is not statistically significant. As opposed amount of people it is impacting. There are estimates this new texas law will impact 600,000 people. Not going to be able to vote. Gerri lets allow hands to respond to this as you heard emily said. It is not a big deal. It doesnt happen that often. What do you say, hans. The Washington Post was very faulty. I wrote a book two years ago with john fund and we listed many more cases of voter fraud than. That just in the past week, as eric shawn said we had numerous cases come out, include thing by the way case in mississippi, indictment of seven individuals whose fraud changed outcome of an election. And we have a senate races coming up all over the country. Very tight races. Study came out last week on noncitizens who are voting in this country and have voted in past elections. They, concluded that noncitizens may have given barack obama his win in North Carolina in 2008 because so many noncitizens voted there. Lets talk about noncitizens with emily. What do you make of this question of noncitizens voting. Sure. I mean theyre not citizens. They shouldnt be voting. For the most part, theyre not voting. Show me how these laws that are packed, lets even put voter i. D. Aside. Show me laws packed, how the cost benefit analysis is there for any one of these cases youre talking about, any one of these new cases youre reporting on . What about cutting down early voting . What about cutting down voting by mail . You know, your guest referenced provisional ballots, can always go to provisional ballots if youre not registered at that location. Not the case in North Carolina anymore. You cant vote provisional ballot outside where youre registered. That might not be your mistake. That might be mistake of polling location. Gerri we cover ad lot of ground here, emily. Hans, to you, i look at these cases people who are critical your stance on this, always say, you know it is anecdotal, the evidence really isnt there. Just tonight from sean we heard five cases in one ohio county. If there are five cases in one ohio county, Goodness Gracious how many exist actually have not been uncovered . Look at this list of numbers. 8,000 cases of vote sell until kentucky . Vodka for votes in arkansas . Cocaine for votes in texas. Absentee ballot fraud in new york. How do we fight this hans, without having people show i. D. At the polls . Well you cant because it is extremely hard to detect fraud after it occurs. We not only need i. D. For inperson voting an absentee voting we need laws like kansas arizona have passed require proof of citizenship when you register to vote. We have elections all over the country decided by a very small number of votes and in many instances that fraud could make the difference. Like it did in 2008 in the al franken norm coleman race in minnesota. Gerri on and on it goes. Hans an emily, thank you. Eric shawn, thank you so much for your reporting. Fox business is the source for all your voting and election news. Watch complete coverage on tuesday hosted by our very own neil cavuto. Here is the question tonight, should you have to show i. D. To cast a ballot . Log on to gerriwillis. Com. Vote on the righthand side of the screen. I will share votes at end of tonights show. Still to come, stocks soaring despite rocky days on wall street. Is now the time to buy . We heard complain about black friday starting earlier and earlier creeping into thanksgiving. But for some stores it starts tomorrow, coming up next. How much money do you have in your pocket right now . I have 40, 21. Could something that small make an impact on something as big as your retirement . I dont think so. Well if you start putting that towards your retirement every week and let it grow over time, for twenty to thirty years, that retirement challenge might not seem so big after all. Oh what fun it is to ride. Get the mercedesbenz on your wish list at the winter event going on now but hurry, the offer ends soon. [ho, ho, ho ] lease the 2015 c300 4matic for 419 a month at your local mercedesbenz dealer. Gerri there was a rocky start to the mon. October though in total deliver ad sweet treat at the end of the month. Yet American Consumers cut spending in september for First Time Since beginning of the year so what is the disconnect . Joining me shaffer Asset Management and ceo, dan shaffer. Welcome back to the show. Good to have you here. Thank you. Gerri listen this, has been an amazing roller coaster ride. Oh, yeah. Gerri wall street pundits like to call it volatility. Take a look at this chart. This is a chart you need to look at. This is just this month, daniel. Would you have bought at the bottom of that little v sitting there . That is the kind of stomach you had to have . No. I dont think that was a longterm buying opportunity. If youre a trader yes, the risk level there was pretty good to take but this slingshot move weve had is very dangerous historically. Gerri why, why . If you look at the chart, false off and slingshots up without a correction. More forces in there pushes it up. Means Federal Reserve continuing wealth effect program. Now with the japanese announcing last night, the continuatino of this program gerri amping it up. It is not just continue ages. Theyre printings more and more. Their index in 1990 was 40,000. The nikkei. It is now 17,000. Got as low as 5,000. Do you think they have thrown enough yen at the program and not working . Gerri back up a second. You mentioned a couple of things our viewers are not familiar with. The bank of japan. That is like their ben bernanke. They are throwing money at weak economy right now which is something they have done for a decade now . 20 years, 20 years. So the question is, whether the stock market gains our economy can say, we owe everything to our central bank . And you seem to be taking the view, that they do. Let me push back on you for just a second. So, i think Something Like 75 of the dow stocks are reporting earnings that are meet or beat expectations. Earnings are doing really well. It seems like Corporate America is broking, wall street is obviously happy. Whats the disconnect . It does seem like that okay . But these buyback programs with companies reducing amount much stock exposure, makes earnings look artificially better. Deferred taxes on their Balance Sheets makes it look a little bit better. If you look at margins and top line revenue for a lot of these companies, for instance, ibm, cocacola, mcdonalds, major cocacola, mcdonalds are telling us that the Global Economy is not doing well. Gerri thats absolutely true. I want to point one thing out here. The japanese economy has an Unemployment Rate of 3. 6 percent, so they say. Their tenyear treasury is gerri all right. Were wail over my way over my head now. Our Federal Reserve, excuse me, is not going to be able to solve this problem. Gerri well, you make a point that i know our viewers appreciate. And let me show you the numbers that prove that. Consumer spending slumping, 0. 2 . You know, surprising, shocking, right . We heard the economy is growing, 3. 5 . And also americans pulling their must be out of u. S. Based mutual funds. It seems to me and you tell to me, you tell me what you think because i know youre looking at this economy and market from every angle, americans are just not getting benefit of this. They havent had a raise in nine years. Theyre still waiting for better jobs market. Theyre not spending money. Pulling their money out of mutual funds. What does the future hold for the American Consumer . Theyre scared. The American Consumer is scared. Wages, in that report that came out this morning, wages were up slightly but spending was down slightly. Which means theyre paying down debt or putting money into the banks. Banks are buying treasurys for safety because theyre flush with cash. This is the cycle. Cycle that every economy has, and the Federal Reserve is trying to prevent this natural cycle. Just like japan tried. Gerri but it doesnt work. And now europes trying. Retail sales in europe and germany, theyre negative. How does a world grow if these numbers continue to show that the consumer is scared out of their wits, theyre renting, not buying . It used to be you had a house and a car in the suburbs. The new world that we live in, people and individuals are moving back with their parents, and their children are moving back in with their grandparents. Thats what its coming to. Gerri if you have a 401 k , its a little bigger tonight. Tonight. Gerri dan yell, good to see you.

E trade gives you the support and guidance to make informed decisions. Are you type e . Gerri have you noticed . Black friday is creeping into halloween. In fact, starting as early as tomorrow many major retailers are kicking off holiday sales for christmas here with the very latest, allison paul, vice chairman for the Retail Sector for deloitte. Great to have you here, allison. So why, why is this happening . I mean, i dont know about you, but i really dont like seeing christmas sales now. Well, its really the response of retailers to what consumers want. 47 of the consumers that we asked in the Deloitte Survey told us black friday isnt as relevant as it used to be, despite the fact that they plan to spend a whole lot more this year, its really good news, 13 more than last year. Gerri so it sounds like what youre saying is that people are walking away from black friday. They dont like it. Whats going on there . They used to be so popular. What happened . Well, 9 of consumers did tell us they do plan to shop on black friday, but 43 said theyre going to hold off until december or later this year to do their Holiday Shopping which does seem incredible. And i think what thats about is the number of different choices consumers have to shop at different places, different times wherever they want, wherever they want with their smartphone, tablet and so on. Gerri that makes a lot of sense, and you dont have to wait for the black friday deals. Lets walk through some of the big deals starting this weekend, starting with walmart. Consumers and retailers have never had more choices, and so this year were seeing a whole bunch of activity this weekend. And its really the traditional kickoff now of the Holiday Season. In fact, consumers tell us theyre going to spend on average 1300 each, and we forecast a 44. 5 increase in sales for the holiday. Despite the fact its actually a very short Holiday Season between thanksgiving and christmas, only 27 days. So it looks to be shaping up as a very exciting Holiday Season with retailers Getting Started this very weekend ticking off really hot promotions. Gerri and just to answer that question, walmart deals include free online shipping on top 100 gifts, an online sales event on monday. Amazon not to be discounted is running twice daily deals and other companies doing the same, it goes on and on. Office max, cyber monday, the deals will be coming out fast and furious. Allison, fascinating what happened to black friday. Thank you for coming on today. Thanks for having us. Really appreciate it. Gerri well, from halloween deals to halloween duds. Michelle obamas Healthy SchoolLunch Program is becoming more of a trick than a treat for many kids. Tonight, in fact, the veteran Affairs Office in philadelphia is the latest to jump onboard the first ladys movement, banning owl candy from its hall all candy from its halloween parade. What will the government be handing out instead . Joining me now, caleb ott to from campus report. Yeah, and theyre passing out, theyre urging the people pass out pencils instead. Now the kids are in a bad position. [laughter] they get a pencil instead of candy for halloween, they may accidentally use that as a fake gun, and theyll get suspended. [laughter] so these kids are in a really tough position. So here is the memo. The philadelphia memo to employees, no candy can, please. If you would like to hand out treats during the parade, please give healthy snacks such as pretzels, raisins, granola bars and sliced apples. You may want to consider gifts instead such as pencils, crayons and rings instead of snacks. Theres going to be a big reaction against this. This is going to create some negative, you know, kind of talk not just among kids, but also parents. Well, heres the absurdity, and were seeing it all the time at the leadership institutes campus reform, the increase in the liberal busybody. It would be one thing if they were trying to curb candy consumption because they anticipated the obamacare dental plan was going to suck, but thats not necessarily the case here. Theyre doing this to curb behavior. And it is just as absurd if the v. A. Were to release a memo within saying, hey, were having a halloween party, but we dont want to curb we dont want kids dressing inappropriately later in life, so were going to disallow all costumes. It is the same idea. It is silliness, and it is a waste of time especially for a v. A. Office like the one in philadelphia. Gerri but, caleb, its not just silly, its also sort of tragic. Remember, the v. A. , the veterans administration, is the organization that has some 200, 243,000 claims pending for our veterans to get care. Those claims pending 125 days or more. It seems to me that the v. A. Has more important things to think about than whether kids are getting candy or not. Exactly. And it shows an, you know, inappropriate prioritization at the v. A. And while this is something very small, probably took a very short amount of time for them to send out this memo, it shows politics. It shows that theyre seeking out ways to advance mrs. Obamas get fit plan, and it is an inappropriate thing to be distributing at a time where the philadelphia v. A. Office, as you mentioned earlier, is at the center of the scandal that exploded earlier this year. And it is quite tragic. Gerri it is sad and disturbing. Unbelievable. Caleb thanks for talking to us about the topic. Appreciate the time. Thank you, gerri. Take care. Gerri you as well. And when we come back, we head to a Brooklyn Popeyes restaurant to meet the boss behind the fast food chain. And next, is last years megahit blurred lines too much like one of marvin gayes hit songs . And heres your consumer gauge with the numbers that matter to you. Check em out. 3rd and 3. 58 seconds on the clock, what am i thinking about . Foreign markets. Asian debt that recognizes the shift in the Global Economy. You know, the kind that capitalizes on diversity across the credit spectrum and gets exposure to frontier and emerging markets. If you convert 4quarter p e of the s p 500, its yield is doing a lot better. If youve had to become your own investment expert, maybe its time for bny mellon, a different kind of wealth manager. And black swans are unpredictable. Dentures with toothpaste or plain water. And even though their dentures look clean, in reality theyre not. If a denture were to be put under a microscope, we can see all the bacteria that still exists on the denture, and that bacteria multiplies very rapidly. Thats why dentists recommend cleaning with polident everyday. Polidents unique micro clean formula works in just 3 minutes, killing 99. 99 of odor causing bacteria. For a cleaner, fresher, brighter denture everyday. The pain felt like my feet were on fire. E pain. I had these very burning, needlelike sensations. I knew i needed to see a doctor.

Maybe the better question is, why do you have that Insurance Company . With Liberty Mutual new car replacement, well replace the full value of your car. See Car Insurance in a whole new light. Liberty mutual insurance. Gerri some bad news tonight for music pop stars robin thicke and pharrell williams. Blurred lines borrows a lot from legendary singer marvin gayes tune, go to give it up. Got to give it up. I want to play this music just so we can clue in our audience. Well start with the new tune called blurred lines. Lets hear that. I know you want it, i know you want it. Youre a good girl, cant let it get past me. Far from plastic, talking about getting blasted. Gerri can we hear the marvin gaye song now. Hooking up on the floor gerri all right. So, phil, did marvin gaye get ripped off . Well, in my view, he has, and the reason that whats called a substantially similar test that a court brings to determine whether or not its been ripped off. If you listen to the bass line and also music critic, of which i am not, they have looked and analyzed it and said it basically is the same thing gerri well, i have to tell you, when i first heard blurred lines i thought this sounds familiar, but i cant tell you what it sounds like. Wendy . This trial is not going to be a version of name that tune, because unlike what we just did, this jurys going to be limited to looking at print sheet music. Gerri really . So they wont hear it . Theyre not going to hear it, theyre not going to have the play, as we say, that weve had listening to these songs for years. So theyre going to be in a different position trying to decide whether or not its substantially similar. Gerri bill with, how do you prove this . Its going to be first, its going to be hard to hear a jury that hasnt heard anything gerri these will be people that know nothing about music, who dont care about music. [laughter] again, looking at the bass lines and the actual notes, i have have been told through critics by looking into it that there are similarities, and this is very important, unbeknownst to mr. Thicke, he said, oh, i love marvin gaye, and id like to write a song like his type of song, so i think that would be gerri hes already said publicly, claimed his affinity to the artist. Talking about blurred lines, when does inspiration become infringement . Thats one of the issues for the jury. Lots of song writers are inspired by artists, but that doesnt mean that that admission is an admission of guilt. I mean, theyre going to have to prove that its plagiarism, musical plagiarism. Gerri whats the hurdle for that though . Thats my question. Theyre going to have to find enough similarities throughout the song not just a bass line, because lots of genres share bass lines. Theyre going to have to go note by note, if you will, and decide whether or not its a coincidence, its inspiration or infringement. Gerri so thats why the jurys getting the music. But the point is, you see, mr. Thickes lawyer was not present gerri expensive and highfalutin, no doubt. You usually dont have that type of admission in the case like this, and that, i think, is going to be a problem. If theyre going to do this, they sort of keep it in their hip pocket gerri is it possible though, let me push back for a second, songs like this and certainly this artist who, marvin gaye, everybody, that music is almost internalized into your brain. You dont even have to think about to know it, do you know what i mean . So its internalized in what you do, so isnt it just possible that it becomes part of the way you write music . Absolutely. And, you know, that comes up in other types of Copyright Infringement cases where they call it unintentional similarity where you know what a song sounds like, you stole it gerri you didnt realize that you stole it. And that actually came up in this case. He admitted he didnt admit stealing it, but he admitted it was his goal and motivation to write a song similar to marvin gaye and he loved marvin gaye. But then he came back and said he was drinking when he said it. Yeah. Thats after he spoke to his lawyer. Gerri probably true. [laughter] after his lawyer got through with him, it was a different story. There were some other songs that they also claim he ripped off. Gerri i wish we could settle this right here, but we will not probably. Thanks so much for being on the show today. Thank you. Thank you. Gerri wow rock on. Gerri yeah, i dont know. Marvin gaye, im a big fan, but, hmm. Still to come, my two cents more, and up next, we meet the boss of popeyes. I went to the source and ate a lot, talked to the ceo. You wont want to miss that. How could a luminous protein in jellyfish, impact Life Expectancy in the u. S. , real estate in hong kong, and the optics industry in germany . At t. Rowe price, we understand the connections of a complex, Global Economy. Its just one reason over 70 of our mutual funds beat their 10year lipper average. T. Rowe price. Invest with confidence. Request a prospectus or summary prospectus with investment information, risks, fees and expenses to read and consider carefully before investing. Gerri theres a debate out there whether consumers are spending or not right now. For tonights meet the boss segment, im visiting the ceo of a popular billion dollar restaurant change, popeyes louisiana kitchen. Lets get her take on the consumer landscape. A lot of uncertainty in the future, so theyre spending their money cautiously and wisely. For us, that means a market share gain, and weve been gaining market share against our competitors for six straight years, and thats the way we measure success. Gerri well, and that brings me to the earnings question. Youre going to be reporting soon. Is the quarter shaping up as you expected . We guided to the sales year of 34 , we said we would build 18 to 0 180200 units, and were right on track to that guidance. Gerri 200 gain in the stock since youve come onboard seven years ago, yet some of your competitors not doing too well, mctolds in particular mcdonalds really stumbling. What have you learned from their disappointments . Weve learned focus is the best strategy. We focused on the lunch and dinner parts, and weve brought our customers a tremendous amount of innovation in things like beer can chicken and just keeping it so interesting for them that they need to come to popeyes before any other chain. Gerri lots of competition for fast casual, chipotle in particular really gaining share, and a lot of excitement from g everything m inform genxers, a lot of people say your product isnt as healthy. Whats relevant, theres nothing more popular today than the spiceness complexness of foods. And we offer a wide range of offerings. You can eat our tenders and our green bean every day for 350 calories and have a fabulous meal. Gerri it is southern, after all, and i defend it because im southern too. A lot of talk this week about apple pay, whos going the use it, whos not . Will your company use it . Well, the way we pay for our transactions is definitely changing and changing quickly, and we absolutely will be quick followers to that kind of technology. Gerri but youre not there yet. Correct. Gerri you at the helm, i think its ab interesting story because theres been an incredible focus on women as ceos. I know youve seen the stories of mary barra at gm, Marissa Mayer at yahoo , difficult positions theyre in. Are women getting the ceo jobs that are the tough that men dont want to take . Well, i think brave women are doing well, and i think i if youre willing to raise your hand and take the more challenging opportunity, youre more likely to get the opportunity. And popeyes was a brave turn around, and i couldnt have been more excited about that. Gerri you come from a family of ceos. How did that happen . We have great parents. My father and mother were great at educating us, encouraging us, telling us anything was possible. And my father was probably the business teacher and my mother had the spirit of adventure that taught us to be brave. Gerri what would you tell your 21yearold self . People in your position, off lot of you have a lot of experience. Wow, if i had only whats the answer to that question . Be your authentic self. I think too many young people are trying to be what they think leaders are instead of being who they are, who theyre gifted to be and leading out of their own principle. So i encourage young people to be authentic. Gerri where is the rest of fast food going, do you think . Who are going to be the winners . Well, where i think its going, you may not know, but louisiana is a place where nine nations came together and created an an amazing melting pot of food. So i think the future is in melting pot food, these combinations of Ethnic Diversity in our food that we love in our communities are becoming part of our culture. We love the mix of german and caribbean and all the different flavors and places you can come from and think our menus well suited to continuously innovate in those segments. Gerri love the biscuits.

Finally tonight, when financial journalists talk about the markets, they often substitute the phrase wall street, as in wall street had a good day. The dow up 3. 5 this week alone, 89 s p 500 stocks hitting brand new highs, but thats not wall streets win alone, thats our win.
