cyprus matter to the united states? cyprus is an island country in the mediterranean sea. east of greece, south of turkey and west of syria and lebanon. a member state of the european union. cyprus is the third largest island in the region, but it is minuscule, a minuscule economy. about two tenths of a percent of the total euro zone gdp. less than that of vermont. today, we learned the cyprus parliament rejected the plan for depositors to pay for the bailout plan, an idea floated on monday. this has created a new worry for the global markets. even though there is a backstop and here in the u.s., the federal reserve has expanded the balance sheet past $3 trillion to backstop the financial system, so why the worry? one reason is that record setting ways of the dow jones

industrial average this year. that has created a bit of a perception of vulnerability. investors are looking for reasons to sell after a 10% move in 2013. another reason, cyprus has developed a reputation as with being a hot spot for international depositors. half are set to be nonresidents of cyprus. unless you have the misfortune of having an at account in a cyprus bank, you may not care. but the big issue is whether such a plan could gain traction in other locals. if that is the perception, will it pose a run on the banks everywhere? the answer i think we learned today is that it is unlikely, but that doesn't mean a market up 10% year the date is out of the woods in terms of vulnerability. in fact, i would argue the real impact happens in two weeks. s&p capital is expecting

earnings growth, seven tenths of a percent. will that be enough to lift more boats in the stock market? investors want growth and there are signs we are inching back toward growth, but it has been slow. there are still no solutions, but i would not allow the noise to clutter the fundamental of the u.s. economy which call for earnings growth and economic pormt. thanks for being with me. stay with cnbc. fullback fast money begins now. live from the nasdaq market live from the nasdaq market site, i'm melissa lee. here's what fast is following. bernanke buzz kill. return to the "wall street journal's" john hilzenwrath. how much does the iphone maker really have for dividend? it may surprise you and the biggest week for i p pos, the

expert gives us the winners and losers, but first, a look at what is moving after hours. adobe surging nearly 6%. both on the top and bottom lines. let's get to jon forte with news. important personnel change. >> a little bit of extra information. adobe chief technology officer kevin lynch leaving adobe at the end of this week and heading to apple. i've got a call into apple. they haven't confirmed, but i've heard from a couple of people who know that has what they have been told. adobe stock up almost 6% at this moment on beating on the top and bottom lines. looking for $986 million in revenue. adobe turned in 1.01 billion. they were looking for 21 cents. 35, 36 cents, so it looks like they're transitioned to the

cloud going better than they have projected. >> thanks a lot for that. from california. in terms of adobe, this is one that has participated. >> new 125i-week 52-week high, which struck me. the second quarter guidance wasn't great. this was an excellent quarter and operating margins were better. clearly, we're in the upswing of what's been a tremendous move, but you want to get involved in this, so the bait of trade is adobe. if you want to have something that moves r or be in oracle, which is slow and steady wins the race. i'm not certain you go pounding with adobe here. i think the better trade is just to stay long oracle. we'll keep track as the show progresses. let's get to the traders. keith, it was certainly an

interesting session unfold. s&p 500, the first three-day losing streak this year, but the dow managed a turn around. >> i think you get to key levels and it's your first opportunity to buy it after three levels. the s&p banged the bottom end and when those happen, i buy the s&p 500. dan, your trade was similar, but for different reasons. >> i also bought the s&p 500. you've got to take what the market's giving and it didn't give a lot. i did not like the set-up. the fact we had this sell off off of the highest base on cyprus. it doesn't make a lot of sense. back to the adobe, what's going to drive u.s. equities for the next quarter i believe is going to be corporate earnings growth and this could be a good start to the earnings season, but the end of the day, s&p could be a flight to quality when

everything else around the world looks soft. >> at what point would you consider relen quishing your bare position? >> from a trading standpoint, i'm not trying to pick a top. >> so, right now. >> i took off you know, a bit of it in the last couple of days because of that, but i think you're going to have a situation where you have to start picking stocks in q 2. >> what was your top trade? >> we've talked about this name for a long time. jack in the box has been a mo monostore on what was a lousy day. valuations aren't that stretched and coming off a tremendous quarter where their earnings growth seems to say you know what? this multiple makes sense. >> really? 23 times earnings? >> look at their eps growth. that's the thing. these guys are not going to come off the ball. the last quarter, they smoked.

i don't think anything stopping these guys. >> karen, your top trade. >> either today, we sold some realty, which is the that i mean i like. what we've been seeing the last month or so, scaling into what will be the lock up comes up in early april. >> i was very surprised with with the new research piece that came out today from william blare. i think it's brandon dobel. it seemed to me kind of late to initiate, the stock is priced at 28. it's touched 50 today. five months later, so it seems kind of late. a little bit of strength, i like the name, sadly, getting stretched. >> at what price point would you consider re-entering? >> would i buy back more? >> probably 45 or lower. >> a big event this week is the fed releasing the statement.

let's bring in john, chief correspondent at "the wall street journal" and an unofficial fed whisperer. it's always great to speak with you. >> do you -- the press conference afterwards? >> i mean, you use the word buzz kill. i don't think it's going to be waiting until after the markets. they telegraph very clearly in speeches that bernanke's given that they want to sting with the policies they've got in place. there's some worries at this point. i just don't think they're going to come in and try to tamp things down. i don't think they've seen enough evidence yet that the economy's firm. and thus ready to pull back. >> when you look at what the

fed, very different thing. if you look at what he's likely to do as he goes i guess through the rest of the year and potentially retire, do you think he starts to get positive on the economy just because he wants to say i told you so? >> no. that's not the way he works. what you have now is really a bifurcated economy. growth in the first quarter isn't that bad. private sector employment has gone over 200,000, so that seems to be picking up steam, but at the same time, fiscal policy the tightening and could hold growth back. i don't think he feels any need to beat his chest at this point. >> at the same time, we had a flurry of wall street firms revise their gdp estimates for the quarter. based on that surprise retail

sales numbers. >> they're going to be updating their forecasts and i think they're going to be in the two directions. they should be more upbeat about the private sector growth and that creates an upward pull on growth. but you know, the last thing they put out, they weren't expecting as much fiscal drag as we ended up getting and so that's going to pull their numbers back. i don't think they're going to be aggressively advising their numbers. their very suspicious, reluct t reluctant, maybe a few ticks, but there's a real concern there right now about how much fiscal

policy is going to hold things back. >> thanks for joining us. let's just say, let's play the trader -- >> love that game. >> let's say we do get bernanke revising a couple of ticks. there's no substantial change to language to make us believe monetary policy is going to go away. what happens? that's bearish. >> given the move we've seen in the s&p, in my world when you just outlined, i think -- >> normally, i i i gree, but i feel the market wants any reason to go up and that would be a good one to say the punch bowl is tistill there. >> that's fair. if he rises it upward, it means that opposite things are going to be better, which means the duration is going to be shorter. >> how do you deal with the fact they talked about that unemployment target? that's not going below seven

anytime in the next few months. that's where i find it all pretty confusing. >> the problem is forecast. he's work 70, 80% of the time on forecast. he's not going to do anything tomorrow because he doesn't believe the unemployment rate will fall below the 7% in the fourth quarter. treasuries will continue to come down for the next six months as a result. >> the big movers of the day. we got a drop from lulu lemon. down 3%. >> these guys came out, issued a profit warning. basing, i think they're saying their supplier screwed up in the sheerness of some of their black yoga pants. this was a high valuation, a high growth name, we're seeing deacceleration in growth. i think you want to stay away. >> i was surprised male number of purchases didn't skyrocket. >> i don't know. >> all right.

go on. >> up 6%. >> $78 target. >> down 4%. >> no love for this one, but again, that's what you want to fade the policies, get the drop, probably buy it on the open. >> january, we thought this would get to 200. got to 197. now, you're sort of in no man's land. i think the story's in tact. i think the stock for the short might be on shaky ground. i think you look to buy it again in the low 170s. >> drop. >> john ross ceo is going to be leaving the company. he's out after seeing d disappointing results and they're also lowering their forecasts. >> and we got a pop for flowers. >> what? >> dubai says it's opened the world's largest flower garden

just in time for spring. 45 million flowers at a pri$45 tag of $11 million. and the exhibit will help grow tourism in the area. >> who writes this stuff? what's your favorite flower? i'm a gardenia guy. >> i love the aroma of garden s gardenias. >> they're very difficult. that's a trade school. very difficult to grow a proper gardenia. the humidity has to be just right. >> i'll take your word for it. up next, when the apple trade could start delivering big returns and just how much does the iphone maker have readily available? not as much as you might think and later on, fast money madness makes its big debut. logon to cnbc.com to find out

breaking news on cyprus. michelle caruso-cabrera is on the ground there to give us an update. michelle.

apparently, we're having some difficulties. ho hopefully, we'll tune in with her later in the show. some comments from the german finance minister on cyprus situation. we'll get the developments later on. after losing more than 35% last cement, is apple finding a bottom? is it time to get bull iish? >> so, i think you know my feel on apple specifically. i think the company, it's facing challenges and obviously, performance of the stock tells you that. but if we have a chart going back to basically october, it's been a pretty steep down trend that we appear to have broken to on the upside. the day i look at specifically is march 3rd and 4th. on the 4th, we had an interesting day. we didn't trade below the 419, but close enough. here's what you have to look at.

obviously, your level of support gets lower with each passing day. but at least as we settle the time, you have something to trade against. the sentiment has got it so negative, i think the stock is flushed to a point now where at least against 420 where at least in percentage terms is not that big a deal. maybe for the first time in a while given the reversal given the trend line, maybe apple makes sense for trade especially if you believe this take is not on the way down, that it's still in aselgs. >> in terms of the down trend and apple breaking the down trend. yesterday, he mentioned around noon eastern time, he broke that on heavy volume. it may not be enough trend, but at least it's signalling a trend. >> i think dan had spoken to

this and tim seymour, did he win a street fight on this? >> as you know, he's a little challenge when it comes to the street fight arena, so when he won, he was thrilled. jumping around. really missed it. we'll try and pull that up. in the meantime, dan, do you think apple is signals the turn at this point? >> i think from a technical basis, it had this pop. it stopped today at its 50-day moving average. hasn't really touched since last october, so you have some technical set-ups, but you've got to remember here, a lot of traders are playing for the year last year, expectations are high, so i think they have a little bit of guys gaming the announcement. i don't think you want to chase it at 460. when they report at the end of april, this is going to be one of their most crucial quarters here to see if these guys are are going to be able to show

anytime acceleration growth. >> we have established our connection with michelle caruso-cabrera. >> the latest is the finance minister of germany is weighing in on the rejection of the bailout terms by the cyprus parliament tonight. he's saying he regrets cyprus' decision and goes on to say no one except cyprus is to blame for its current situation. they think they can attract large amount of capital in the future. he says their business model doesn't work. this has tried to be an international grown its banking system to an enormous size on purpose, but it doesn't work anymore and he says that the two largest banks are essentially insolvent without help. everybody knows that. he's saying that out loud again because it was without the help of the european union, those banks will collapse and it's

possible if they don't do a deal, the dpoe depositors could lose all of their money. not just the 9.9% or 3 or 6%, whatever number you want to come up with, if there is not a deal. that's the latest, back to you. >> what is your sense on the next steps and timing? because there are some reports that the banking system will not only remain closed thursday and friday, but as long as next tuesday. >> meetings start again, there are some tonight, but officially, everybody gets together at 8:00 a.m. tomorrow morning. the finance minister is is trying get money out of russia, but many here think that's a pipe dream. so if by some miracle, some plan in place and voted on by wednesday night or early thursday morning, in theory, the banks could reopen. if that doesn't happen, they extend the bank holiday and monday is another holiday here in cyprus, so when they say next

week, that's what they're talking about. the fact that yet another holiday here on monday, so they could get a full week of having to banks close while they try to figure out a plan. remember, they have trucked in a lot of cash, liquidity, or flown in a lot of notes and coins. they keep talking up the atm through the support of the ecb. the ecb has said they're going to keep supporting the banks through the ela. of course, if they're not open, that doesn't mean anything at this point. but that's the status. we're going to wait and see if they have a deal by thursday. if not, then things don't open until tuesday if they have a deal by then. >> all right. michelle, thanks so much for keeping us posted. our chief international correspondent on the ground in cyprus. what's your sense of how this situation has been prolonged and the market's ability to remain resilient? look at germany stating a political point here. the germans want the russian

model. russian money launderers to pay part of the bailout bill. again, there's an election in germany in september. what the german finance minister is saying is predictable and the same thing merkel's going to say. you have a small, isolated situation. people are trying to sell you crisis and fear. i just don't see it. >> let's resume with apple because we were talking about it over there. we want to talk about whether or not apple in fact has enough cash to pay out this dividend. john? >> here's the $137 billion. how much is in u.s., about --

not so bad as much they have in the u.s. when you think they're paying per year, about $10 billion worth. the rest they have to pay a tax sale if they brought it from overseas. now, every quarter, they're paying out about $2.5 billion in dividends an the u.s. cash they're accumulating is just around $3 billion so, how many times can they hike the dividends by 60, 70%? not that many times. it could raise some issues. maybe they might want to go and open up a line of credit. it's not as straightforward as they've got this huge pile of cash. they can't just continue to hike it indefinitely out of u.s. portion, about a third of the cash they're generating. >> first of all, that question,

they could do it if r a while, but secondly, these guys could be a borrower. microsoft, 30-year paper, creating under 4%. they don't like to do anything flexible with the balance sheet, but that's not a giant leap. why don't they do that? >> it's not to say they couldn't do it. it's just usually when this question happens, people talk about the 137 billion as if it's just there readily available. nothing's stopping them from . w lot of companies do that. apple does like to say we've got no debt. they wouldn't be able to say that anymore. >> thanks so much. jon forte. up next, why you may want exposure to multinational companies and the man who

let's get to aur call let's get to aur call of the day. australia's top two mining giants. getting downgrangra to goldman sachs, keith, what did you make of this? pump more iron ore on to the market. >> to me, whether they got it for the right reason or not, i love the call. we love the calls we agree with. you look at this call. i mean, look.

why are miners getting pulverized? because the dollar continues to strengthen. housing and u.s. employment improving. very bad for commodities and goldman made a good call. oversold, but a good call. >> deere, downgrade tog a neutral from a buy. down to 98 bucks a share. higher kosh prices will weigh on these stocks. we saw the fall, joy, all losers today. >> i think what concerns them maybe and i obviously don't know, is the underperformance of caterpillar. 98 doll$98 is still higher than. i still think there's upside left although i understand what they're trying to do, i sort of favor buying the dip here.

>> 5% haircut today on a downgrade here from goldman sachs down to $17 a share and if you read between the lines, it's because cisco's gaining market share. >> the stock is down now, down 20% from the highs last month. it's not that outrageous, so to me, you have the stock near 208 average. goldman might have given an opportunity to pick up a cyclical tech stock. >> warn season is intensifying. analysts have lowered forecasts. they've raised forecast frs just 483. the cofounders joins us now and

you've been combing through stocks that look attractive. explain how you came up with the three names. >> when you talk about warning season, they call it warning season because warnings pick up. when you compare to last year, the warnings aren't as great. we've seen more negative revisions than positive and that's going back to may. longest stream in negative positive revision since the crisis. what we want to focus on here is companies that have domestic exposure. strong dollar and they've outperformed market and seen have seen more revisions where as international companies have seen 50%. so, these are names, 90% of the revenue in northern america. first one is auto zone.

auto zone's been a big winner. been pairing back the holdings in the stock. it's the top performing stock in 2007. still in it today for for that period. the float's been cut in half over that period. and the average age for a car now is older than ever. so the economy's picking up, but wer still at, employment and housing are at depressed levels, so people aren't really confidence to go buy new cars. they're going to hold on to used cars and that helps auto zone. >> obesity's the biggest epidemic in the united states on the health scale and they run the largest dialysis in the u.s. increased by a billion dollars last quarter, so that's a name we think, it's a high growth sector, unfortunately. >> the last one, raymond james.

>> raymond james, first of all, it screens well in our quantitative screens. the second, they have no baggage from the financial crisis. morgan stanley, merrill lynch, smith barney, they don't have this cachet they used to have and as more investors come into the market, they're going to be more apt to go to a smaller, regional name. >> paul, thanks for stopping by. we'll talk transports now because the dow transports continue to make record highs with the big part of that being the performance of the airline stocks. there's heavy call activity in one stock in particular. what were you watching? >> yeah, i was looking at lcc. us airways. this is a company that is in the process of trying to merge with american airlines. the airlines have typically not

earned their cost of camepital t this suggests they might be able to get some under control. only two weeks ago, up about 25%. paying $1.10 for those. >> coming up next, it is the biggest week so far this year for i p pos. a look at the potential winners and losers and later on fast money madness, we are feature i inging the most talked about stocks in the market and you weigh in as a fifth trader. back right after this. ♪ [ cows moo ] [ sizzling ] more rain...

disappoint last month. whole foods also gets a lot of their revenues or all from north america. these stocks, these are high valuation names, but if you want to flash forward to this year, some of the big gainers in the internet space like amazon, crm, eb ebay, these are all underperforming. expedia. so, to me, you have these stocks underper foming at a point where a lot of people think the market could be topping out. if we go down 5%, these stocks are likely to be down 10%. keith, you are watching a name, also, i believe. >> same reasons, too. underarm underarmor, one of the high correlations to momentum stocks is the high short interest. so if you look at one of the best things that you could have been long is long high short interest. so at a point, that runs out of room. you can't just buy netflix every

day at 300. they have a high expectation, high short interest, now, they're susceptible to blowing up if their miss the numbers. >> all right. let's move on to our next trade here. the biggest week so far for ipos. at least eight deals are scheduled to price. we're giving you the loudow down one of the biggest since facebook. he made some good calls on group groupon. let's talk about this one company in particular picking up a lot of buzz. >> pinnacle foods is expected to price on wednesday to start trading on thursday, so pinnacle used to be bird's eye food. it's acquired a lot of other brands and is going to ipo next week, but the brand portfolio is just amazing. bird's eye foods, of course,

biggest frozen food company in the world. got vlassic pickles, swanson foods, 90% of the people watching now has one of the products right now. >> at the same time, what are the comparables of valuation in the current market? is there another company that has a similar portfolio? >> absolutely. campbell's soup, all time high. conagra, hines, so the public comps are 20 times pe effectively. this is pricing at 15. there's a lot of room to go up from there, frankly. so what they have going for it, it's going to be part of the s&p 500 within a year. the indexes have to own it. it's not your typical ipo buyer.

plus, we believe within two years it's a $2 billion ipo. >> so, it can be aqucquireacqui? >> karen, this is one you've been watching as well. >> if i look at a hillshire brands, that seems to me to be somewhat of a comp. do you think it will come out in trade? that's what they're looking to price it. where do you think it will trade? >> karen, it's looking to price at the upper end at 15. but honestly, we think it could easily trade to its normal comps up to 20. i think it's pricing at 20, but if you look at the normal comps, it should be at 25 or 26 and as a takeover target over a year or two, if you use the hines as m and a deal comp, it could be in the mid 30s. >> it does seem like a warren buffett kind of, you know. >> pick it up for $3.5 billion

even at 35. >> let's talk about this week's winners. the end of the quarter, so there's a rush to get out of the market. marin software and model and are there ones you like over the others? >> we have the record of the year, the busiest since last fall. there's a couple of reasons. a lot of these deals were filed months ago, but with the fiscal cliff march 1st, they just didn't want to compete. now that things have calmed down, there's an old adage in wall street that if the ipo window is open, you just jump threw through it. from april moved forward to this week, markets hitting record highs. we had a weak name. people said if even that could go through, the window's open, just jump through it. >> by the way, we were talking
