CNBC Power Lunch May 20, 2015

That is only one hour away and it always happens during our show and it could be a real market mover for you. We begin with Hedge Fund Ties and steve cohen. A year after he turned hedge fund into a privately held Family Office he continues to beat the market. Kateicle we a look at the Trading Floor in stanford, connecticut. Over to you. Thanks so much and the i think the market is a great place to start up. Never before had a Television Camera here on site. Steve himself is here and trading as well at his own trading station. They are having a good year so far. They are up about 8. 5 . Thats good in light of the markets. Last year as well. They beat the market and they had returns north of 13 . A good run in a month or so. What im told at the moment is cautious about the u. S. Stock market. We could see flat kplafr and a slight tick down. A cautious outlook and not a strong view one way or the other. I came from a meeting and the president of the firm who was recently hired along with other senior changes, and he is bringing on a they only change. They hired about 100 new professionals of late and that brings it to more than 900 persons. In terms of what is interesting, they are focused on 12 out of 65 books. They are feeling better about what happened in a while. Finally i had to ask about the picture. There a number of pictures that are unresolved including a case for alleged failure to supervise. He said the past is the past. They are really not focussed on it 94 are they focused on managing outside money. They want to create the best possible firm on a private basis. That is steves goal and they are focussed on that and the values they articulated. Thank you very much. Interesting view inside the trading room. We are watching the banks. Royal bank of scott lent. Slapped with a 5 billion fine in total. Criminal charges here over rigging the currency markets and libor. Here have the latest. Looks like the grand total is 5. 6 billion for the banks you named. Ubs involved in this one as well. Tearing up ubss previous prosecution agreement under the manipulation scandal saying they agreed not to break the law. They didnt do it and they are slapped with a 200 million plus penalty as well. All of this the department of justice indicates there was something wrong with the culture inside the attorney general. Currency traders at several multinarcotic banks formed a group they dubbed the cartel. Its perhaps fitting that they chose the name as it describes the brazenly illegal behavior they were engaged in on a near fiveyear basis. Almost every day for more than five years, traders in this cartel used a private electronic chat room to manipulate the Exchange Rate between euros using coded language to conceal. Showing the emails back and forth, this one upcoming from the department of financial service. This is advice to a member who is considering joining the group to the other. Mess this up and sleep with one eye open at night. Allegedly from a barclays Vice President saying if you aint cheating, you aint trying. The less competition, the better. Also i should say that the sev giving waivers. Although these are criminal charges, the bank will be able to operate. We will bring it to you. We will pick it up from there. Do you have etfs and bond funds . If you do listen up. Regulators are raising questions about how risky the funds can be. Bob pisani is back on the floor what kinds of funds are they talking about . Financial stability and oversight and these are the things you are worried about. Buried deep is etfs. They are exploring and raise lick righty and they have concerns regarding fire sales. There have been years of liquidity issues and etfs is power lunch. We have talked about certain classes that raise some concerns like referage and inverse. Less rick wid markets. Leveraged loans. We tend to avoid it because we are concerned about it. In the overall market pretty healthy. Heres what i think is going on. The real debate and they are looking at nonbank financial ferms. They dont want any part of it. The foc focusing on products. There is a lot of politics going on. Look at the report. In this report they have virtually dozens of Different Things they are concerned about. Including etfs the bond mutual funds and Market Structure and Interest Rate risk and High Frequency trading. This is all in the 150 page report. My bottom line on this is i have no concerns about recommending claims on the etf that use sectors and etfs that we talk about all the time. I dont have concerns about mutual funds. I have concerns about more exotic etfs and they bear examination. Back to you. Bob thank you very much. Lets go to phil. Part of these under pressure is because of a notetaking a look at the potential of delta adding capacity. Delta will be increasing capacity by 2 with the biggest growth coming in the United States. They take a look at shares of american. Why are we looking at shares of americans . They could force u mighted and american to do the same. They are available for the seat mile. Heres doug parker last night on mat money. I think next year with the growth of something, 5 or 6 . Okay, thank you very much. Lets get out to sue herera for a quick news alert. We have news concerning the department of financial service, specifically that benjamin who heads that division is going to be departing the new York Financial services after four years as serving as the agencys first superintendent. He was quite aggressive and pursuing wrongs on wall street. He was the first put in charge after the 2008 financial crisis. He has been in that position for four years. They were creating that position after the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis. You had him on power lunch and he will depart after four years of heading that agency. Thank you very much. Investments in the u. S. Were not distant just a decade ago. The economic power house pumping a ton of money into the United States now. Michelle has these numbers. Michelle . As a result of that, mandy, thousands and thousands of americans are working for Chinese Companies right here in the United States. We will show you the numbers and the states right after this. Financial noise financial noise financial noise financial noise recapping the day a beg headlines, sales fell more than expected. The Office Supply retailer is merging. Office depot two years after acquiring office max. The shares are down by about 8 10 of 1 . Hormel profits came in above estimates. The food manufacturer did say the turkey business could be significantly challenged due to the bird flu outbreak. Sales forces trending down today about chinas investment in the United States. Where is that money going . There is a lot of it. Michelle Caruso Cabrera has the scoop. Think of this. 80,000 are working for Chinese Companies here in the United States. Thats a huge increase from five years ago when there were less than 15,000 and in 2,000 the number was virtually zero. When you look at the map of the United States, mostly in the midwest there was a lot of manufacturing. North carolina is number one where there were a lot of smith field properties. Three of the biggest states with employment had 20 do with the pitcher by a chinese meat company. When you look at money, its pretty different except for california. Thats at the very top with 5. 9 billion. They had bigger states where you see a lot of Real Estate Investments which are a lot more expensive. Lets talk more about the report with the president of the National Committee on u. S. China relations. You finished in this report. We broke it down based on state, but if i showed this report it is based on Congressional District. Representative by representative. Why . We wanted to bring it down to the lowest political level in the sense that each Congressional District are working for Chinese Companies. In the district, the congressman that these are providing are jobs. This is more meaningful. They think this investment is doing good things for the district. When a lot of people hear you, a lot of them will think Chinese Investment in the United States. What are the motives . So many of them appear to be connected with the government and they read in the paper this is morning. It is predominantly private. 80 of the United States does not have stateowned enterprises, but private companies. We have the political motivation that doesnt seem to be evident at all. It is businessdriven. They look a lot like multinationals that are investing in the United States. Manufacturing and distribution and areas where they think they can one and one make three. When you see the news and they busted a chinese spy ring and it leads to worries and the reason they are investing is to take know how and trade secrets from u. S. Companies. There bad apples in every bushel. Chinese come to steal and others come to steal. I think you do not see these people who are investing are coming to steal american technology. We dont see them closing plants in the United States. Relocating them back to china. Are they trying to develop products in the United States that goes global . Absolutely. Are they investing in the United States . Absolutely. I think its a positive story as opposed to the negative we hear about. Thanks so much for coming on. Tyler and mandy, one point we should make. 80,000 americans being employed by Chinese Companies. 700,000 are employed by japanese. Still relatively small with big investors in the u. S. Good to put that into perspective. Great reporting. Shares of etsy tanking after a big loss. The stock is down more than 30 since going public in midapril.
