companies are doing whatever they need to to deliver the bottom line, even if they don't have a topline. >> that folds into the core issue with mergers and acquisitions, something we saw in davos, because of limited revenue growth or the perception of limited revenue growth, we have to combine. is that fair? >> you have zero gdp growth and lots of parts of europe right now. we have a very difficult to interpret gdp growth pattern in this country. they may be revising about second-quarter growth. >> first quarter was -2.9. >> we're in a low visibility environment. without that growth and that headwind or the tailwind behind companies right now, m&a will be propped up equities from cheap researching onow the stock side. >> is a sustainable not to the rest of this year but the next

options open according to the prime minister and other ministers in his. the closest to a ground invasion was just before the weekend, and assault by israeli commandos on the militants off the coast of gaza, engaged in fighting there. thedeployment of tanks for border with gaza, 33,000 researchers have been called up. they have not made a decision if and when they might storm the ground invasion. >> describe the north of gaza. to me, it is a place on the map. what does it really look like? towns to the north of gaza must some of them are development towns. -- not has a development the most aesthetically pleasing. power stations, nuclear plants not far from there as well. big towns,ig cities,

which have large populations. i have an app on my phone that goes off every time there's a siren sounding. oftentimes, it is many, many times a day. >> it is really ground troops going to gaza, what do they go in to? abandoned property? street to street fighting? what do you presume will occur? >> i suppose everyone hopes if that happens, we would not see a repeat of 2009 were more than 1000 palestinians were killed and a number of israeli casualties. you're talking about a very small coastal enclave with 2 million people cramped into it. you will clearly have gunbattles and presumably, in areas where there are civilians. and also the militants as well. hamas would relish the opportunity to inflict some casualties, i suppose.

and also the ability to kidnap a soldier or two. how much does this change the whole thing and make compared to what israel and gazans faced several years ago when we had similar events? this operation started some seven days ago, there have been more than 1000 rockets fired at israel. there have been two serious injuries. the only debt that is happened so far was an older person in jerusalem who died of a heart attack when the air raid sirens went off. more than 1000 rockets, not a single casualty cost as a result of that. in large part, that is due to the iron dome missile defense system and also a well drilled population who has been through this before people following procedures and going to shelters when these rockets are in the air. you hear the show -- sirens, and you go to the shelters.

>> the health ministry in gaza said at least 165 civilian casualties have occurred. what is a statement from israel on this collateral damage? >> if i may, i think it is about 170 casualties. the majority of whom appeared to be civilians. that is according to the united nations, one fit our children. said in ananyahu interview, they're always going to be civilian casualties and they regret when they happen, but they are defending the people of israel from this barrage of rockets from the gaza strip and will continue the operation until they have severely weakened the infrastructure. >> we are watching. thank you for bringing us up to date. >> breaking news, more m&a news

whether they are in oil or pharmaceutical, they focus on one specific niche? could argue that is a new kind of conglomerate because when you get to larger and larger blocks of publicly traded private equity vehicles just buying more more companies within a defined space, but you're right. >> we have seen a really weak m&a environment for most of this economic recovery. for some reason, the last six to nine months, the environment has gone just vertical with activity picking up. what is changing? >> i think you to start with, jonathan, why were these markets coupled?d -- de we did not have a strong been m&a market. cheap money is what was propping up the equity markets, not confidence. there is not fundamental confidence in the last several years of economic growth, without which, it is hard

because it it about buying large companies. today, however, there's a mixed picture. some is about greater confidence another is the equities have been so propped up, the people want to use them. marginscceleration of of earnings, a better things to come. so many people, including push back against that. stay first why we will see a positive second and acceleration in earnings. >> my starting point is with the expectations among economists for the broad economy which is that we will see something in the neighborhood of 3% gdp growth on a going forward basis. last year, we had 1.9% gdp. this year, with such a lousy first quarter, again we will be under 2%. we should see a pretty big pickup. but this lack of revenue drives companies to focus on taxes,

interest expense, focus on all these other things. therefore, you get this weird disconnect, which is a weak economy and better earnings. 500 folks,the s&p talk about the correction-free moment, down all of 0.9%. jonathan, this goes back to, did you participate? when you speak institutional long only mutual fund investors like the big foldout in "the new york times" this weekend, are we participating in all this good news? >> increasingly, you haven't investors getting into neutral fund flows now been much more positive. the big jump you got off the people miss that really first big leg. yes, increasingly, the public is getting in. in the extended cycle, they will be able to get some fruit out of that. >> there have been a lot of

questions about capacity utilization. man like to call it the fat and the hamburger argument. easy the 300 pound man for me you think, how much bigger can he get? margins are added all-time high, tenneco higher? i say, look at the hamburgers. what does that mean? of excesshave a lot capacity. you can sell more units without putting more equipment in their profit margins go up. i think you'll see a number of before, lacklking of confidence. companies that are not confident about the future, squeeze more and more out of what they have and that drives profits higher. >> talking about the manufacturing side, but if you look at the consumer, retail -- this isncredibly a very discount promotional oriented retail market. has tells you the consumer

pulled in her wallet. this is not bullishness. about a lottalked of the m&a activity is not necessarily animal spirits. i think we're in agreement. the question -- i look at it as an equity strategist. de coupling between a good market and weakness with the consumer? >> maybe there is decoupling within private sectors. financials are sure going. -- struggling. which are leading? area in terms of adjust is the energy sector with oil prices up, probably the area you see the biggest change from the last quarter. lastroups that did well year, california utilities -- utilities are great. >> what about banks?

>> banks are going to have a hard time on trading operations for the big banks and on mortgage activity for the regional banks, but the important thing, if interest rates go up, banks will do well this year. if they stay soft, banks will have a harder time. >> we will see how that shakes out. coming up, focusing on millenials. what companies are paying a lot of attention to this potentially powerful group of people. that brings us to our twitter question of the day -- tweet us. ♪

plays. >> so is the distinction music is streaming whereas books are still per unit? >> there is some of that. if you look at the transition to digital music, it almost seems transitional and books is like giving birth to an elephant. it is the internet, physical distribution and digitization, the ability to read on screen as these millenials do. that change has upset the apple cart of a very, very quiet, happy, comfortable industry that no longer can play the game the way they used to. >> if i decide to write a book this summer, what would be the best way to distribute said book? e-books or self-publishing or the traditional -- >> you will find it difficult because everybody has to get the mind share an opportunity to publish in the big five. it won't be so easy.
