The public is getting a rare, inside look at at an embattled bay area testing company. Now more on comments from the ceo. Jackie . Michelle, this is first time cameras were allowed inside the secret bay area lab. The tour was given by none other than Ceo Elizabeth Holmes. She gave the public a look at a new they vice called a mini lab. It will allow 40 tests to be conducted on small amount of blood taken from your finger. This is what she chose to focus on at a recent Scientific Convention but there are still federal and civil investigations against her company rewarding theranos edited blood testing devices and are blaming personnel. At the highest level we did not have the right leadership in the laboratory and the implementation of the quality system in terms of procedures and the associated documentation to insure that we were realizing the quality standards that we hold ourselves to. Theranos threw out two years of blood test results from its edison devices due to questionable accuracy. Holmes has until august 5th to appeal. It still needs to be cleared by the food drug administration. As the president ial campaign winds down to november, both candidates have making claims and we are here to separate fact from fiction. The u. S. Is no longer in a recession but has the recovery been good enough . Reporter yes and no. How about that for a political punch. Here are the numbers. The economy expanded 1 in the first half of this year since 2011. But overall we have seen growth of about lets say 2 to 2. 5 a year during this entire recovery. Of course that is better than shrinking where we were in 2008 and 2009, but below the pre recession average of just over 3 . On the jobs front the numbers are much better. 14. 4million jobs added in the recovery. Unemployment which peaked at 10 in 2010 is now at just 4. 9 . Now we will go back the other way. Wages, not such great news. The typical American Family earns about 53,600 a year, down 1,600 from eight years ago when we adjusted for inflation. The most significant progress can be seen with the stock market. The s p 500 is up by over 180 from the beginning of 2009 to the middle of this year including reinvesting your dividends. Yes, jill, that political punt was right down the middle. How about the housing market, the epicenter of the crisis. How is that looking these days . Reporter again, good news and bad news. Prices have recovered nationally to the precrash highs but that is on a nominal base. I know the bay area is sizzling hot but nationally when we factor in inflation prices are still about 17 below the bubble peak. The median prices are 31,000. The better news is struggling homeowners. They are doing a lot better. The serious delinquency rate is at the lowest level in eight years. Here is the big win which has nothing to do with politics. Oil production is at a 43 year high. Gas prices are 2. 13 a gallon. Too, when we look back at eight years ago that is 2 cheaper than where we were, yes. Gas prices peaked at 4. 11 a gallon just about exactly eight years ago, a Little Something for everyone. Yes, that is hard to believe that gas prices have fallen that much. Politicians will want to take credit for that, though. Jill schlesinger, thank you this morning from new york city. 5 41. A local man is missing this morning in oregon after a backpacking trip.
