And in a spinoff effort from the hit pbs show Downton Abbey a wine has been created for fans. The wine will sell for around 14 per bottle. Liane feldstein of fc stone joins us now. Good morning to you. Good morning. So we have a jobs number coming out at the end of the week. How you think the market will perform a head of that . Well the market might kind of slow down a little bit. We dont have a lot of Economic Data coming out this week as opposed to last week when we were still making up from reports from when the Government Shutdown, but this economic report is a week late and so this throws a lot of things out of balance and we can also see the number be a little bit off because of the government shut down were these workers counted in but did any of them actually apply for unemployment so i think the market will be unsure of what to expect and how to react and might take it pretty easy. As far as Economic Data what else do you think people should be watching especially average investors . Well its very interesting right now. Last weeks data pointed to a slowing down of the economy and this week since we dont have a lot of data one of the most important things of course will be the jobs number but on monday were going to have factory orders and this actually shows how the economy could be performing into the future so people might want to take a look at that, and if people are ordering more durable goods say refrigerators and stoves for their houses that means people are spending more money which increases our economic growth. So its very hard to determine what people should be watching without a lot of reports coming out this week. But i would say really watch for those factory orders because it gives us a picture into the future. What about going long this market . What sectors or industries which to invest in right now or consider . Its so strange because with the Economic Data last week, the s p made new highs and everyone was kind of sitting there saying i wonder why this would be were waiting for the fed to come out talk about tapering still. Were waiting to see if theyre going to change the rates which everyone was pretty much with the consensus that they would not. So i think you have to pick your areas from a broad base. Look into financials, look into tech, look even look into the pharmaceutical industry and take your portfolio and spread it across different areas a little bit evenly because in case of one day financials could be up the next day they could be down. The same with pharmaceuticals. We just dont know whats really happening with this market right now because everything is kind of a topsyturvy according to data. Good to have you on the show and thank you. Thank you have a great day. Food stamp allocations rolled back to pre2009 economic stimulus levels much as the payroll tax holiday expired at the beginning of this year. As our cover story explains, its not only direct recipients who are affected. The greater chicago food depository is bracing for more demand for its pallets of food shuttled on forklifts daily. This giant warehouse already supplies 650 lowincome food pantrys, soup kitchens and shelters throughout chicago. And the need for meals has not eased up since end of the recession. Over the last five years, weve seen a 70 increase in food pantry visits in cook county, alone. The food stamp rollback is the end of a temporary boost to food stamp allocations as part of the 2009 economic stimulus. It affects 47million americans. The rollback, Effective Immediately cuts 36 a month for a family of four. The usda estimates the result will be 21 fewer meals per month for that family. But advocates for low income families say while some segments of the population are recovering economically, that hasnt happened for a lot of americans. We havent seen an economic recovery for low income. The Census Bureau says we still have about 15 Poverty Level and that hasnt budged in three years. The Ripple Effect can be seen at super mercado rivera. Fortypercent of raul riveras customers use food stampsin illinois, the assistance is distributed electronically through link cards. People are going to come and buy less. Well have to cut the hours of our workers. Nationwide, the rollback amount to five billion dollars less in assistance for food. In illinois, for example, the supplimental nutritional assistance program, known as snap gives a 240million dollar boost to food retailers. For those retailers that depend on snap, we worry if they will all survive. So far, raul rivera is not talking about laying off any of his ten employees but he and others are concerned that food stamp recipients may be threatened again, if Congress Cuts the Food Stamp Program deeper as part of the farm bill, now in conference committee. The clock is tickingif the farm bill is not passed by the end of the year and the current one isnt extended, dairy supports would also expire, which could result in higher milk prices. Walmart is one of the retailers that benefits the most from the Food Stamp Program. The wall street journal reports. 18 of food stamps spending is done at walmart. That equates to around 14 billion dollars. However, the ceo of walmart told shareholders last month. As americans struggle with less money from food stamps, they are likely to turn to walmart.

Heating your home this winter could give you a chill. Kevin craney of rjo futures joins us with the update good morning good morning, how are you . Im well so what are you seeing as far as the futures what are they telling you about Home Heating Oil . Heating oil is down substantially here for the start of the month of november but we did see a rise in october and i think thats on account of what could come later in the winter. Were forecasting a very cold winter as we progress through this winter season. How is that likely to affect heating bills . I think youll see a small rise in home heating bills and i think it really depends on fuel use. Theres a lot of heating oil in the supply pipeline right now. The forecast is for a mild winter to start, a harsh winter to end, so thatll give time to build supplies a little bit but if youre using natural gas, things could be a little different. 50 of homes are heated by natural gas and if we see a rough winter, you could really see the bills tick up if thats the fuel of choice.

Youre in your 50s or 60s and you figure, hey youre done with the parenting thing, right . But there you are still paying for those kids now in their 20s. Their cell phone bill, medical charges heck youre buying furniture for them. Whats wrong with this picture . Well theres a new book that delves right into this parents to the end how baby boomers can parent for peace of mind, foster responsibility in their adult children, and keep their hardearned money. It was written by seattle psychotherapist linda herman. So linda, were talking with her via skype. Now i have to say, im doing this. My sons married, theyre going to have a child in march i cant help it. I just like to pay his cell phone bill. Well it sounds like thats a gift and sometimes that works and thats just fine parents have to decide what is working for them and is it working for their child. So do parents need to take the initiative and say hey kids there some new rules around here now. Indeed sometimes parents do especially if the parent start to get uneasy himself or herself thats the cue. Is it working for you . Is it i dont know a psychological game . Do we need to understand why they are the way they are sometimes . I think it is to some extent because parenting has changed a lot. Those of us baby boomers grew up in homes where parents didnt have the money to do those things for us, and so they didnt. We have more money and so we do more. So how do we bring this up . If we find that were a lot of their expenses how do we change that around . You start with a conversation keeping it as positive as you can to the fact that you know ive been thinking about how you do a here well established now. Your situation is a good example. Im thinking maybe we need to revisit my paying the cell phone bill and then thinking that its about time that this is something you takeover. Something like that. Well about the push back . Wouldnt they say well mom i cant afford this i need you to help me . Then you say well sit down and look at your finances and maybe figure out how you can do this. Lots of parents dont want to do a direct cutting off of their kids Financial Health so they taper off. Ok i will pay for the next three months or ill pay half and then in two months you takeover. Parents ought to expect push back. You wean them off of the dependency. All right linda herman and thank you so much. Ok. Thanks bill up next why investors are calling their brokers to make a movein the bond market. Chart talk is next we are rounding out our show today with Scott Shellady of trean group. Good morning to you. Good morning. Now dont let that cow jacket fool you. This guy is trading the tenure treasury. What do you see out there that you like . Well you know we had some verbiage last week from various fed people that were used to be on the fed but are not on the fed any more, but it just seems to me that our customers have suddenly woken up to the fact that maybe this taper at least the tenure will start to fall of bed here, and looking for higher rates or lower bonds. So were pretty active on getting rid of bonds and or buying puts and it seems to be the flavor of the day were not the only ones. Youre not the only ones. So how far who do we go with this . And it sounds like its a one sided trade here so what do you think . Well its kind of a unique trade because due to what the fed is saying in their state mandate were not going to taper, but in some point in time theyre going to pushed and forced to do that. I think that this is what investors are looking for the fed being forced to taper. So were looking for say 3 percent over the 3 tenure sometime in the next four months. What do you think the bond market though, overall scot,t is telling us about the economy . Well nobody can get excited about 2 1 2 tenure and that would tell me right now that the economy is not doing very well. Were going to continue to have some sort of a combination, but the big bet is now will they start to trim back that accommodation . We can still be pumping into next year who and into 2015 even, but we could be pumping a lot less than we are now. Thats what the big bond trade is and were trying to guess when that starts. Exactly that was my next question as a trader, do you wait for your trader instinct . Or when do you know its time to go the other route . Well a lot of times its just instinct. But were seeing now a big battle between the Strategic Investors of the world versus the fed and theyre starting to get more and more angry with this combination or no end in sight for this combination. And at some point in time the feds going to have to have their hand forced. Thats where the bets are being placed on right now. Scott thank you. Have a good monday. Thats it for now.
