Charles we have a check on the big board, Dow Jones Industrials gaining 200 points last week. But we are pulling back this morning. This could be a critical week. I see it as a continuation from friday. Big games that pulled back, i do say bubble, dont like to use a word, but when it comes to biotech i saw the last couple of weeks the it could start collapg on friday and bio techs collapsed early in this session, starting to pull everything along with it. Circuited nasdaq. It is important to point out where we are right now. S p 500 up 1 on the year. The Broader Market rarely in positive territory. What has been scary to me is when the market does really the past few weeks, charles, it has been led by telecom and utility names. High dividend paying stocks, safe names. You have not seen an aggressive investor out there, which means there is some hesitancy to get in the market right now. Charles they are not going to the sidelines. They are rotating to safety. Another major point is the highfliers, a lot of these fans dont even make money. We have to admit that had a huge 2013. High tech names, tesla, netflix. Lot of news associate with that but it feels like the momentum names, some profit taking. They wall street analysts said this would be a stock pickers market 2014. And we have seen that from the investor. They havent been buying groups or sectors, they have been by individual names. Individual names. Charles we get a special treatment from comcast. They bypass all of the heavy web traffic. I can see why it is to apples advantage and i can see why it is to comcast advantage. If there is a way to get streaming faster, yes, people will pay for it. Charles top three reasons for divorce will be money, infidelity and netflix. [laughter] investors may be grappling where to go. Where do you go . Everybody has been waiting for that to happen. Charles netflix. We have been talking about it all morning. Nicole at t is fighting back with some tough words. Internet Service Providers should be getting content companies connections for free. In some way, shape or form. At t says no way, no how. Even saying, a sickly, there is no free lunch and no cost free delivery for streaming movies. Charles Reed Hastings talking smack. Imagine that. I want to say happy anniversary to obamacare. Four years ago, the Affordable Care act was signed into law. Affordable. A affordable. Affordable. Affordable. Affordable. The reason they changed the name of it is because they wanted to get away. Charles it looks like it may not be so affordable after all. Premiums are about to skyrocket. They expect doubledigit rate increases. Affordable. Isnt that crazy. The only people that think it is affordable the talks of the taxpayer is on the enormous level. Charles it is interesting. Well point came out last week. Do you know at least three wall street firms upgraded today . They are all saying that these guys will make a lot of money. I guess the administration is still trying to sell this. Remember, one of the strategies was to cause people to lose their private Health Insurance to drive them into their exchanges. We see 80 of the peopl have taxpayer subsidies. Also, look, charles, at what they are requiring. First of all, everyone has to purchase Health Insurance. Then, there are also benefit requirements. Next, i believe, we will see that states require certain hospitals, certain providers to be covered. That can only increase the cost of the insurance. It also takes away the negotiating power of the company to negotiate lower rates with those providers because now the government is saying i have to cover them. Charles that puts us right back to where we actually began. You mentioned subsidies. I want to ask you about this. 400 above poverty. Do you think that maybe the administration could be desperate enough that it could be even higher . Something they cannot possibly do without legislation. I think congress would find a way to put a stop to that. It would be direct allocation. We are already talking about subsidies. How could they possibly get away with thinking that higher . Charles rachel marie turner, thanks a lot. Former New York Times stats man successfully predicted every state for the 2012 election. He says republicans will take back the senate. Predicting they will take exactly six seats. This could be really interesting. Is it all about obamacare . About the economy . Yes. Charles when do they start to take this into their work . I have been digging into all of these ceo, cfo surveys out there. They have really impaired their ability. You will hear Small Business as well as a business speaking out. Charles dna of American Business may be able to reveal itself even more. Just put a halt to this war. Let the rhetoric continue. I think it would be a big boost for our economy. This will be a huge problem. Just a huge problem. Charles the unofficial unemployment is significantly higher than that. Here is what else we will be watching from you today. More Global Warming scare tactics from the un. Believe it or not. Climate change will disrupt food and water supply and lead to a Global Economic meltdown. No what taking on a lot of criticism. Banning twitter in turkey. Could that man be backfiring . I think it is. We have a lot more on that. It is next. Announcer where can an investor be a name and not a number . Scotade. Ron im never alone with scottrade. I can always call or stop by my local office. Theyre nearby and ready to help. So when i have questions, i can talk to someone who knows exactly how i trade. Because i dont trade like everybody. I trade like me. Thats why im with scottrade. Announcer ranked highest in Investor Satisfaction with selfdirected services by j. D. Power and associates. Sometimes they just drop in. Always obvious. Cme group can help you navigate risks and capture opportunities. We enable you to reach Global Markets and drive forward with broader possibilities. Cme group how the world advances. Charles a check at the big board here. Markets are really starting to fall off the board. We will keep an eye on it. Time now for your morning gold report. I think it is at a threemonth low. The old days of robotics coming from the military may be coming to eight right now is this just another case of businesses realizing they can do a better job . This robot story is not going away. Google is showing that it is hands on. They believe that they can do a better job than the government. They mess things up when they do. If it was not for the government, we would not have the internet. A lot of these Robotics Companies have gotten seed money. Google may be fearful. If it makes new discoveries. The government will always want a piece of that. That would be a legitimate concern for google. Charles right. Do no harm. Turkeys attempt to ban the use of twitter is not really working. We have seen this trend. Who will it eventually be targeted to, do you think . Totally possible. Charles is impossible for any government to completely shut their citizens out from the internet . Unfortunately, we have seen a lot of this recently. Right now, the game that is being played in turkey is a game of racquetball. Charles it seems to me, inevitable. Wherever you have real serious embedded problems, i think the internet will play a significant role in the next phase of revolution. I keep looking at china. Well, china has done a very good job of being able to maintain certain control over their internet. It is refreshing to see the first lady and Michelle Obama speaking out about this issue. The stuff that is going on right now, i do not know. I want to talk about traffic here in our country. 36 of web traffic is fake. Obviously, it is not good for sellers of advertising. Are they getting the wrong deal . I think that it depends on how you defined it. With advertising, you definitely want to make sure that the quality of traffic that you are generating is high. Charles how do you do that . If i am running a Retail Operation and i am not necessarily tech savvy, someone tells me you guys need an internet plan. We do it. We get out there. I think that you have to assume that when you are working with a reputable ad network that they will disclose any information that they have. Charles tank you for joining us this morning. We appreciate it. John tapper. Your reaction next. Nascar is about excitement. But tracking all the action and hearing everything from our marketing partners, the media and millions of fans on social media can be a challenge. Thats why we partnered with hp to build the new nascar fan and media engagement center. Hps Technology Helps us turn millions of tweets, posts and stories into realtime Business Insights that help nascar win with our fans. Charles when you start to put alcohol in that environment, i think the dynamic changes very much from a coffee shop to more of a bar with coffee. I am concerned about that. Those were just some of john taffers ideas. That was a response. What he says, i believe, that guy knows how to make money. I have a son who was just hired at our starbucks. The last thing i want him to do is sell alcohol. It is coffee, not a bar. We had enough of those. Oil has been holding pretty steady. 9947 is not cheap. Gas was holding steady. We are 0. 13 from last month. This is sort of seasonal. We tend to get a spike in gas prices. You have that to look forward to. Charles we always praise for the summer driving season. You will see 100 oil. For anyone who thinks that what is happening over there does not affect you here, look at the price you are paying oil, at one point, it used to sit very comfortably. It does not feel that bad because you are getting used to it. Charles challenges from hobby lobby on the Birth Control mandate. Remember, hobby lobby filed a lawsuit arguing they should be exempt from the mandate. If they are successful, this could be a major blow to the law. 600 of their craft stores. It is the green family. Remember, they are objecting to this on religious beliefs. This would be a major blow if they were able to see this. Charles the white house has won some major victories. Todays matchup in our varney technology segment. Google facing off against priceline. Priceline shares have edge over google shares so far this year. You can vote on which staake would rather own. All of our market watchers will make their picks in the next hour. A lot of people thought that they would. Only 500,000. People thought it would be a lot more.

[ woman ] got me to 70 years old. Im going have to rethink this thing. Its hard to imagin how much well need for a retirement that could last 3years or mor so maybe we need to approach things dferently, if we want to be ready for a longer retirement. Charles breaking news. The Obama Administration remember, europe gets most of its net gas from russia. This will raise a few eyebrows. This could be very strategic. This could be the scene of a huge group grain situation. A huge energy operation. We have a lot of natural gas. We can do something about this. There are some that could say we could be doing it a lot sooner. This is a step in the right direction. Charles you hold onto our natural gas and fossil fuel assets. This brings us back to merkels comments last week. If you frack, we will fight it. Charles it will be the seventh want to get the okay from the energy department. It is huge. Do it all. This is the opportunity. This is a good way to do it. Charles spark our economy. Stop shaking. This is it. This is your chance. The price of precious metal. Palladium hitting a 52 week high. It has a lot of implications for the economy. The poor mans platinum. It is used in a lot of different ways. More of an industrial metal. Look, it has been going up for a couple of reasons. Obviously, the ukraine situation where we get more of it. Charles doesnt have any positive implications . Demand may be up. Russia is a big producer. Say goodbye to fannie mae and freddie mac. Maybe. A bill is in the works. The two of you were doing such a terrific sales job. Charles imagine that. Holding back a tyrant. Creating jobs. The more we trade with them, the more they will see that the western system is superior to theirs. Charles we have a bill that is supported by both sides of the aisle. Let me just walk you through what is going on here. Fannie mae, freddie mac, they went bankrupt. The United States bailed them out. Fannie mae is about 120 billion. In the last eight quarters, they have paid that money back. A gigantic moneymaking machine. Now, the government may shaft individual shareholders. Congress could probably get away with whatever it wants. The constitutional and moral and freemarket angle is just a monster with another name. Fannie and freddie will cease to exist and some other government sponsored enterprise will come into existence. It does not lend money. It buys mortgages. Usually lousy ones and packages them and sells them to investors. The federal government should not be in the business of doing this. I think that that is where the profits came from. Qe3 began in 2012. I think they sold a fed a lot. Now it is a moneymaking machine. The 185 billion used to euros to bail them out came from the fed. Charles it has often given to the administration. The General Motors. Basically find some bankruptcy judge that is willing to change the law. The government is not allowed to take any asset without paying for it. When you invest in a government corporation, the government does not have to pay. Charles they will be able to do 3. 5 down. Instead of implicit government that, it will be explicit. As if that has ever worked in the past. Charles a camera so small that it could be injected right into your bloodstream. Avoiding the need for invasive surgeries. We have the inventor. He is next.

Stop taking spiriva and seek immediate medical help if your breathing suddenly worsens, your throat or tongue swells, you get hives, vision changes or eye pain, or problems passing urine. Other side effects include dry mouth and constipation. Nothing can reverse copd. Spiriva helps me breathe better. Does breathing with copd weigh you down . Dont wait to ask your doctor about spiriva. Charles we have two stories. Sprint moving ahead on its plans. Sprint has cut 330 jobs and closed 55 stores around the country. Sprint is not commenting on the exact number of jobs lost. The company also shutting down three call centers. Next up, the kia. The company says the deal still needs approval.

Charles the mystery surrounding the Malaysian Airline disappearance. We must now accept all evidence that suggests the plane went down in the southern indian ocean. This comes just after recent developments over the weekend suggesting australians authorities found several pieces floating in the ocean. Strong forecast. I want to go to nicole with procter and gamble. Nicole it is pretty amazing. The dow is down 52 points. Of 2. 25 right now. It is not only leading the Dow Jones Industrial average, but also the best performer on the s p 500. They are adding 10 positive dow points. Charles thanks a lot, nicole. How about this for the geewhiz technology. A camera that travels to your veins to find blockages. Doctor and inventor of the camera. That is absolutely amazing. This is as small as it gets. Yes. Right. Charles it feels like you guys have focused on the heart and circulatory system. Tell us the advantages of this camera and what it means to mankind. This can act like a flashlight. When the doctors are searching, they can see what is in front of them. When it comes to blockage, they have an opening, they can now see what is going on there so they can see the front and the back of the blockage. It could be pushing something. Charles operations that would normally seek the findings blockages. Maybe some cases they will need surgery after all. That is the idea. Did this actually opened the door to a wider range of patients . To take on and survived openheart surgery. The developments coming up. You want to go and. There are two other doctors that are in the room. In this case, it can be integrated. Charles i follow a lot of technology. How does the University Get the funding to leapfrog the private sector .

Charles how is this for a Global Warming scare . The latest report says that Climate Change will disrupt our food and water supply. It will also slow down the worlds economic growth. The rise in temperature may cause irreversible damage. Listen, sandra, every week the un comes up with another reason for us to tackle Climate Change. Sandra more ammunition to the u. S. Government to tax us more. Look, the bottom line is they are using scare tactics here. All of this, it seems to be pointing towards collecting more money from taxpayers. They continue to cite scientists as a consensus believe. It is not that. It is not consensus. Charles if it is so conclusive, why are there hundreds of thousands agencies and organizations . Sandra it just pains me to see how Many Companies have had to struggle based on new regulations and new laws because of this Climate Change that has really impeded their growth. Charles i do see other things. How we feed mankind. How do we get money to the underprivileged out there . It always seems to boil down to western guilt to cut a check. Cutting checks does not change logic, people. Sandra no. They are letting emotion change a lot of this. Doesnt it all go back to the guacamole. There was another scare tactic. We may not have the all the condos that we need. They say it will probably not happen. These are the scare tactics. Charles thank you a lot. Now it is time for me to make you a lot of money. Some of you remember i like trinity. That is up 32 . We are holding that. They have beat in the streets. They are getting their execution together. 11 15 a. M.

Google refusing money for the Robotics Program and apple teaming up with comcast to continue to cut the cord. March madness, brackets are absolutely destroyed over the weekend. No billion dollars buffet winner. College athletes should be paid, that and a whole lot more. A new hour of Varney Company starts right now. Now, we have to start with the big board. The market took off like a roman candle and now it has fallen apart. The do dow picking up from fridy action where we started strong and lost as the close. Markethe market looking a little wobbly. The nasdaq is worrying people. Average joes taking profit or something bigger going on . There are worries there. I think everyone thought we would come in like 2013, and it is not happening after all. Charles the market had a lot of excuses to croak apart. Biotech has been a little shaky. Everybody trying too hard back to 2000, it feels eerily similar to that, people saying why not take profits on tesla, netflix and all the rest . All your hot stocks are comingd. Either way at the end of the day you know what im talking about. Based on what is happening in the rest of the world, you will still come to us, you dont have other places to go. The market will be just fine. Charles we say it all the time, but the market is due for some sort of meaningful pullback. Thanks a lot, tracy. Lions gate, divergent a huge win for them. And speaking of rotation into blue chips, Procter Gamble leading the dow and the s p. Dont see moves like this every day, up 2 on a bluechip names. The wall street journal reporting the countrys largest Cable Provider comcast is in talks with apple to bring streaming services to Comcast Cable boxes. We are joined now, the ceo. This is interesting to me. Streaming is where it is at, but it feels like apple and comcast, apple getting the big deal of this. Why would comcast be interested . Comcast wants the dollars. Now that the federal government has said comcast, you can decide who gets through the cable line and who slows down. It is a great revenue model for them and apple can pay a premium dollar to be able to get more access into homes. Charles this doesnt mean apple doesnt have its own tv wishes on the drawing board. We have heard apple tv for long time, some things they pipeline. Ultimately does this have apple put their nose in comcast, ultimately become a competitor of them outside of this deal . It could be. I dont think apple is looking to compete with comcast. They are looking to become content providers. Everyone looks at youtube and sees the billions of dollars in revenue and profit. Everybody wants a piece of that pie. Charles netflix has been probably the biggest winner so far, that stock pulling back on part of that news. Is it too early to handicap who may come out on top of this . You have a lot of smart players in this space. It is too early to tell. We dont even know if the deal will happen. A lot of times the news comes out and people get excited and we Start Talking about it, but that does not mean it will go to fruition. Charles on wall street they call that bait and switch. Google says they dont want military money to help them develop their robot, is this part of the whole do no harm sort of thing or is this something deeper going on . Look at what googles main motivation is. They want to make money. The main motivation is for military reasons, for governmental reasons, and they dont always play together. Last thing google wants is to say google is in bed with military, so they really want to keep the borders distinct, they dont want the money, they want to be able to do it by themselves and google has a lot of money, they can afford to do that. Charles the government is deeply involved already with robotics, they spent a lot of money on it. Boston dynamics got a contract from them. Trying to cut the cord could be tricky but i think it is more of a p. R. Stunt than anything else remains to be seen. Cisco planning to invest 1 billion over the next couple of years, they want to get into the Cloud Computing game. A lot of these old lumbering giants have been slow to this game. Amazon is the big dog writes now. Cisco could come in and change the marketplace. That is one definitely to watch. Charles what area of cloud would they be in . A billion dollars is a lot of money but when i hear these large names want to get into a hot, sexy area like four or five years late, i dont think they can do it. They may have a late start, but they also have the upper hand when it comes to technology. You have a good customer base. Right . Outsourcing will continue to be a big thing in the cloud space overall. Why do i need the big server in the backroom if i can let cisco take care of it for me. That is where Companies Come into play. Charles they should have been on this a long time ago. Take a look at this number. A new report that says 36 of all web traffic is considered fake. Web traffic hits that computers controlled to visit sites, it has in of viewers. To help us understand this . It feels like a gigantic theft is going on here somehow. It is. There are growing solutions for that problem. It is now going towar towards d. More and more companies are buying online ads. Lot of clients who say they want to put a bigger share of their Budget Online marketing and digital expense, but given that you have all of those people who are trying to make a quick buck. The best way to get around this is to make sure when you are working with the middleman, by those, they are vetting those websites fully. What are those thousand websites, are legitimate . It can prevent a lot of trouble. Charles thanks a lot. Always a pleasure be at charles Oil Spill Cleanup off galveston blocking major shipping channel. Yesterday spill closing the channel for Galveston Bay to the gulf of mexico. 200,000 gallons dumped after a barge ruptured and it has been detected at least 12 miles offshore. Tracy commune oh what, any time we kind of things it seems like another impediment, another thing for environmentalist to rally around. Although we know accidents are bound to happen. Tracy you and sandra said it last hour, just do the Keystone Pipeline already, create all these jobs, these are just distractions. Get rid of it and you will be fine. Charles thanks a lot, tracy. We have an update. The nasdaq got wrecked with another ceo was canned. Is it helping the stock at all . Nicole do what i do, eat the center and throw out the cookie. Semantics dropping back. They came out with some numbers, the ceo out. Friday it dropped 13 , today bouncing back. Because of the assorted products they like the company, they raised it to an outperform. They see some possibilities, they do think finding a new ceo will be tricky, so that could be some turmoil. You bf has not been as positive. Charles thank you. And b he won back is a twotime olympic medalist. She is teaming up with fox sports 1 and budweiser to show the unifying power of soccer around the world. Take a listen. She made her mark. This is the weirdest thing. I remember feeling like dont celebrate too much because it is not over. Charles doesnt that give you the chills . I know ive got the chills. And you will too. I want to welcome abby to the show. It is interesting, we talked in the morning meeting about this unifying power of soccer. I think this is a fantastic thing and when i think of soccer sometimes i think of hooligans, some of the racial comments the players have endured in europe. I think of the fights and the craziness, i never thought of unifying power of soccer. It is the worlds game, the most popular sport all around the world. This specifically we teamed up with budweiser and fox, showcasing just that. These stories goat just as deep. Some are heartbreaking, some are inspiring. I then the one i am featured in the first one is tomorrow. I am really proud of it not because we lost, in that kind of event. Charles when you say heartbreaking, besides winning and losing, what are the aspec aspects, the hope they put into their teams . This, to your point, is so important in other parts of the world that their soccer team does very well. With my specific episode, tsunamis in 2011 that hit japan really impacted not only their country, but these players and inspired them to play bigger and better than they ever thought possible and ended up winning the world cup. In large part due to the fact their nation was willing them one person at a time willing them, the girls who participated and played on the field, they played their hearts out. If we had to lose to somebody, we lost to them. Charles it does have a healing impact for japan. You cant quantify, but it must have helped the nation tremendously. To add to the fact it was a female sports that did it. The man have a soccer team from japan, but the womens side was able to impact this nation in a really positive way, so now you see the womens soccer participation is just off the charts right now. Charles that is interesting. The womens side of soccer has been extraordinary. The womens teams have performed extraordinarily well. What happens to the mens side, what is going on . They are leading up to their world cup. Charles in terms of bringing home the gold, we will take it at this point. Is there something where boys get to a certain age and other sports draw the best athletes . It is becoming more popular now so over the next generation you will see an influx of better players at a younger age whereas the last generation a best athletes were playing football and basketball and baseball. Charles i have to tell you, cant think of a better ambassador. Tracy what you do for young girls is amazing. It is an amazing thing that is happening, and i will also say my son now goes to watch his friend play soccer. I do think the tide is changing on the way up, the boys are really cool if they play good soccer now. Charles you are an amazing ambassador. Things t you guys too. You guys are awesome. Charles thanks a lot. This paranormal movie. They are using the bible now to push a green agenda. Youve got to hear it area did that is next. Two pretzels. Put in on my capil one venture card. I earn unlimited double mis. Not bad. Can i get your autograph mr. Barkley . Sure kid. Man my fans they love me. Thats the price you pay for being world famous. He meant sign the receipt, fool. Greg anthony. Haha. Hey man, could you sign my hat . He wants my autograph. Earn unlimited double miles with no blackout dates from the capital one venture card. Whats in your wallet . But i didnt always watch out for myself. With so much noise about health care, i tuned it all out. With unitedhealthcare, i get information that matters. My individual health profile, not random statistics. They even reward me for addressing my health risks. So im doing fine. But shes still gonna give me a heart attack. Innovations that work for you. Thats health in numbers. Unitedhealthcare. Charles the new biblical movie noah taking a lot of heat. Lets go to Lauren Simonetti for details. Lauren im excited to see this period comes out friday. Russell crowe plays noah. 130 million it is getting so much buzz because it is creating so much controversy. According to the director, god is punishing man for Global Warming. So it is like Russell Crowe and no are the worlds first environment listed christian groups are up in arms about this. Piermont put out a disclaimer against the advertising saying this is our interpretation of the biblical story. Im eating so much about it, Russell Crowe is tweeting the pope to get him to see the movie. I cannot wait to see it. What about you . Charles i may check it out. But it offends everyone. Not many movies can do that one, that is a hat trick. Maybe i will see it, i dont know. It is picking up a lot of controversy. We have breaking news, more fallout from russias invasion of crimea. Owner of the brooklyn thats planning to relocate the company that actually runs the nba team to russia. I dont know if he is one of the all the cards on a list or not, but this is huge, huge news. A perfect segue, they dont call it march madness for no reason. A lot of teams went down over the weekend. Only 16 teams remain. The Golden State Warriors point guard teamed up with degree men charging men to do more and improve, joining us right now. Before we talk about degree, lets talk a little bit about march madness. It has lived up to the billing so far. They have done extraordinarily well. They havecome it has been more prevalent this you than most. A lot of doubledigit seeds left. We were at Davidson College back in 2008. It gives people a chance to shine on the biggest stage. When you are on pool of 68 teams, who is to say you cant make it through to the final four stage. As a fan of basketball, it is exciting to watch. Charles i want to ask about these kids getting paid were some sort of stipend or something. More pressure growing saying march madness is huge, a billion dollars industry in these kids are not getting much for it. I think they should. Within reason. You dont want it to turn into a professional sport, but they get education and scholarship to provide for that. To allow them to still be more focused on their game and not have the pressures and stresses of other things in the classroom. It allows more opportunities for i think the brand and the game would be better with that taken care of. Charles if the argument is these guys are getting a free education, if they do get some sort of financial stability, wouldnt they stay longer in college in some cases quest mark i am sure it would entice them to stick around and for thats not to be a reason to jump when youre not ready to move onto the next level. It could strengthen a lot of lineups with the rollover of players. Charles with degree, what are you guys trying to achieve here . Inspiring people to do more and improve.

Mary says offices will be Small Businesses, merged with walmart of Health Care Offering cheaper goods. And businesses will closer cut workers hours to parttime, increase insurers who do not pay and will result Insurance Companies to merge with each other. They predicted every single state, did he really in 2012 . Now he has another prediction, this one is huge for the republicans. He says they will take back the senate in the 2014 midterm election. I think that was the consensus already, but i guess it feels good when a liberal says that. Republicans took over florida and everybody got it rolling. Republicans are not very good at getting out to vote. You still have georgia and kentucky who dont know what they are doing and yet still a lot on the table. They need a net gain, right . That could go either way very easily. Charles this is a guy who has the football and the end zone is right there, and they fumble it. Dont you feel like a fool all over again with these guys . We should be able to do this. Obamacare is right for the taking as far as election campaigns go. I dont know who to blame anymore. Charles we saw a lot of people who blew it last time around. We told you to tweet us using the hashtag askpayne. If you question the General Motors one that is very interesting. For years they had been losing the marketshare going back to 2426 share, in september of last year it fell to 16 , but then i started to turn up.

President obama the most traveled and defensive presidet in history. Find out how much it is costing you after the break. My dad has aor afib. Brillation, he has the most common kind. Its not caused by a heart valve problem. Dad, it says your afib puts you at 5 times greater risk of a stroke. Thats why i take my warfarin every day. But it looks like maybe we should ask your doctor about pradaxa. In a clinical trial, pradaxa® Dabigatran Etexilate mesylate . Was proven superior to warfarin at reducing the risk of stroke. And unlike warfarin, with no regular blood tests or dietary restrictions. Hey thanks for calling my doctor. Sure. Pradaxa is not for people with artificial heart valves. Dont stop taking pradaxa without talking to your doctor. Stopping increases your risk of stroke. Ask your doctor if you need to stop pradaxa before surgery or a medical or dental procedure. Pradaxa can cause serious, sometimes fatal, bleeding. Dont take pradaxa if you have abnormal bleeding or have had a heart valve replaced. Seek immediate medical care for unexpected signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Pradaxa may increase your bleeding risk if youre 75 or older, have a bleeding condition or stomach ulcer, take aspirin, nsaids, or blood thinners. Or if you have kidney problems, especially if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctors about all medicines you take. Pradaxa side effects include indigestion, stomach pain, upset, or burning. If you or someone you love has afib not caused by a heart valve problem. Ask your doctor about reducing the risk of stroke with pradaxa. Hi, are we still on for tomorrow . Tomorrow.

The most welltraveled president in history and also spending a whole lot of money on travel, lot more than any other president in history. Lauren simonetti has the numbers. Lauren i do. These numbers are coming from the american taxpayer association. They say president obama has taken 31 trips overseas spending 119 days overseas. The most at this point in his presidency than any other u. S. President. Now the price tag. For air force one, 228,000 then a little bit more to that. Putting the bill per flight hours. In europe this week and going to the middle east, that trip will cost us 6. 6 million. Figure 29 flight hours, 228k per hour, do the math. Charles what about the beast, the car, the limo . Like a Million Dollars per mile to move that bad boy around. Lauren can you expect the president to fly jetblue . Charles i would not want the first lady to stay in a suite that cost less than 8000 per night. Did you pay your income taxes . I know i did. Nine states where you dont have to do that, but all 50 states every single one of them will be income tax free by 2050. Governor scott walker signed a law that cut taxes by 500 million. We want to cover both of them with Grover Norquist from washington, d. C. We will get back the wisconsin tax sentiment, but all 50 states taxfree. A little of this is on your part, no . There are eight states that have no state income taxes. Tennessee has one that hit Dividend Income but not others. Soon we will have nine states with no income tax at all. Both North Carolina and kansas have cut their is about a quarter with the stated policy of getting to zero. Louisiana, oklahoma, arkansas, all are beginning the conversation of moving toward zero. Many of the governor candidates in arizona. As more states move toward zero, the neighboring states have to think about moving toward zero as well. I think it is likely come of this is a prediction, not a hope, by 2050 all 50 states will be at zero on the income tax because you cannot compete with other states when you have additional taxes that they dont on income. Charles i remember when michigan there was some discussion there. What about this gigantic welfare state like california, new york, where they not only need the cash is also considered a punitive thing. In nee york city they elected a guy who wants to tax everything that moves, grover. When other states are doing stupid and district of things youre only doing slightly more stupid things, it does not stick out like a sore thumb. With many states moving toward zero and reducing up to 24 states with republican governor and republican legislature, more than 19 of them cut taxes last year. In business number he likes to cut prices, but you do because your competitor does. The income tax is a big part of the government. If you want to be competitive, if you want people to live and invest in your state, he have to begin to go to zero. 95 billion in income has moved since 1992 into florida. Charles im going to jump in there. All they have done is raise taxes even higher. Tracy is eager to get in a tracy are they going to repackage it and call it a property tax, sales tax . You will end up paying it. Youve underfunded liabilities to pay somehow. They do have to reform the tr Pension Program or they will lose that. What theyre doing a states like North Carolina and kansas, which have gone about it a quarter to a third of the way is cut the rates and through economic growth, lock it into lower rates. There is a ratcheting down of those rates. That is a much better way to shifted over to the sales tax. Charles i want to ask about this move Governor Scott walker another tax cut, wisconsin becoming a very successful state. Is he putting together the blueprint for not only how to run a state, but maybe how to run for president next time . The best ways to become a confident and successful governor. All the republicans likely to run will be governors plus rand paul, but a lot of governors have the right to do that. What wisconsin did was another 500 million tax cut over the last two years. They have been bringing their rates down, he hasnt announced he is going to zero, but i can see wisconsin making that commitment in the near future. Charles before i let you go, the governor coming under some fire because he raised some taxes while cutting them in other areas. He has been doing a revenue neutral tax shift. I think people are really hoping for a more aggressive overall tax reduction, although they had some rate reduction and moving in the right direction, he has allowed these little taxes here and there and now wants to tax fracking more. You dont want to increase taxes because you want be available drills and drilling units in your state making our citizens rich. Charles everyone will keep you busy, we love your prediction and everybody is rooting for you because they have gotten completely out of control. We will talk to you really soon. I bet you be stubble be the same. Up next, how to break down this weeks tournament matchup and a bill glances at second two away with fannie mae or freddie mac anit will crush individual investors.

Charles all right, guys, time now for the real halftime report. Join the company from chicago, Nicole Petallides from the new york stock exchange, and tracy byrnes is right here. Larry, the asteris star last wen friday between nasdaq and the dow. Biotecbiotech began to fall apa. High flyers falling apart bringing everybody down. This is the first crack in the rally . It very well may be. We broke through support levels pretty important on the nasdaq. A few more below us, but if we dont, i would say that is sort of a chink in the armor. Looking at the two different markets combined like that. Charles you think almost all sectors are overvalued here, so what is going on . Most are overvalued with suspected earnings and most are getting lower. Are we are turning part in the market . The nasdaq and the s p being at different levels, breaking down obvious the nasdaq is more tech waited, i would not put too much in that, but overall buyers beware. The market is getting real week. Charles right now the maker of the game, candy crush, will be priced tomorrow. A lot of anxiety what are you thinking . It is feeling like 2000 again. Eithe ipo market like when i was reporting on them. I cannot imagine this goes all that high. Charles the last three quarters revenues are coming down, beware.

Charles down big time. One of those big names. Apple, this is not one of the highfliers. Lot of people having the most undervalued stock in the market, would you buy it here . I would not be a buyer of apple right now. Maybe because of the international exposure. I would not be taking a bite out of the apple right now. Charles gas prices up 0. 13 since the last month. How much Higher Committee by memorial day . We can be quite a bit higher because it does seem certain places the economy is getting better. We will talk about the driving season, people taking driving vacations and demand will drive the prices up. Charles tracy comeau talked about the apple, comcast deal. Something is weighing a netflix. It is beginning not just today, but for a few days now. Tracy like anything else, this thing is having is up and downs. People are still using this product way more than they are turning on their radio or television. Charles two of the biggest names in tech. We have google facing off against priceline, talk about household names. Here is how they stack up against each other. Google has five times a market value and six times number the employees but over the edge of google. Which one wins here . It depends on that time period, but i love google, not a big fan of priceline. Im going with google all the way. Charles i can see why it is part of your model. Do you model the commercials we evaluate these stocks . Which one is going to win . I wants to see which company will make the most money although marketing has something to do with that, but i would pick google. Most likely to have a shock and awe product come out before priceline does. Charles thanks a lot. I want you to take a look at apple. Were going to talk a little bit about apple. It is interesting, priceline we were just talking about that last year falling off, the stock got hammered and then reversed making an amazing moved to the upside. When that happens, what do the folks do . On page 88, might have woke up . We follow it in the magazine. Moving one way or the other. Charles carl icahn is in the stock, from traditional valuation from the p e ratio, this is a screaming buy. But eli thing going on is it is screaming. One very big thing is going to happen. A lot of people want that. Charles they are catching up to samsung. Think about this for a moment, when we talk apple in the past we never talk about them catching up to samsung, talk about them innovating the next innovation from apple that no one has ever seen before. Now we are talking them catching up . It is a realistic strategy. For years they said nobody wanted big cell phones. Now the market has proved them wrong on that, samsung has shown people want the bigger phones. Apple is acknowledging its mistake and has a big opportunity. Charles you think that helped the stock . It will help earnings. Help in the stocks go up 20 or so. Charles that is huge. Talking but a major stocks, a lot of people own it, it has been extraordinarily disappointing so far. There is a chance for special dividend with all the cash. Charles we will see. Really appreciate it. Say it aint so.
