economy. neil: malia. >> i just quickly top say, i understand how we like to take things and combine themm but, i do not think that the only reason why keystone project is not happening is because, barack obama asked his agency this question, to get back to original topic, what i think is really important for us to look forward and you know neil, i don't think that anyone would disagree with you that jobs are important, the problem with laser beam focus you have a society and a lot of things that need to be focused on, laser beaming becomes narrowing, i don't think that is how we' our president or anyone in congress to just have like this one bullet silver bullet solution on what will save the u.s., that is not only thing that u.s. nee right now, we not only have a jobs problem. neil: i think it should be your

it could pull a rag out from under the marketnd the homeowners. the latest details you cannot afford to miss. even when they say it is not, it is all about "money." ♪ melissa: all right, first to today's market moment. the raid on deposits sending chills down the spines. the market phone for the second session in a row. the first back-to-back losses nearly a month in case you're keeping track. investors gear may be best reflected in the vix. our top story, the critical situation in cyprus threatening to set off a chain reaction around the world. the european nation wants to tax all bank deposits up to 10% in order to secure a $13 billion bailout for the government.

this move is unprecedented, it would basically allow the government to skim the bank accounts of every single person who makes a deposit into a cyprus bank account. if that is not enoug the country has closed all banks until thursday so if the decision is made there will not be anything anybody can do if they have money in the bank. now the world is bracing and waiting. what you should do with your money and with the impact could be. so excited to have you on tonight. university of chicago professor. what a team. t me start with you because i want you to set the scene for us because some people hear this and i think of cyprus is a tiny island, who cares. this could set off a chain reaction around the world, tell me why. >> if you have your bank

deposits in another country that is shaky, italy, spain, portugal, and greece, you will say in my the next in line? so what we will be looking for over the next week or at any time or attention turns to a potential crisis in any of those countries is whether or not there is a run on the bank. the other thing we noted is they are still jiggling alon around h the terms of the deal. i'm surprised included small depositors, ordinary people who had nothing to do with his coming out looks like they may be taking it out of the mix. melissa: 40% roughly people who have deposits are not residents of the country. this could cause people to yank the money out if they can, flee to other places around the world. switzerland may have to pay a negative interest rate if they get impounded.

the thing europe needs the most right now in order to get out of this mess is economic growth and youan't do that if you are having a run on your bank. you need financial infrastructure. what could be the impact if we see a slowdown in europe, the opposite of what we need right now. >> we're already having a slowdown in europe. the numbers are quite ugly. it is a question of whether we are fighting some sort of stability, whether we have hit the inflection point cooking stuff gets worse and even a worst-case scenario on banks and other nations, think it is too soon to suggest that. it is the banking system the size of this economy, you talk about the fact that large percentage of the deposit are outside attempting to trick the nation and the bank in the unique way. i sure hope they backpedal on insurance deposits, that would provide a little bit of

stability and i hope they suggest this is not something we're looking to do broadly across the euro zone nations. melissa: do you think they will do that, or do you think the opposite, that other people follow suit? this is really unprecedented. they're basically skimming people's bank accounts. >> i agree with both of you, which is always a good thing to do. the fact is they will try to reassure people this is a one off thing. they have rung the spell. now people know especially larger depositors know if they're in italy or spain they could be hit by this. the one thing we have not mentioned is russia. love those large deposits are from russians.

including those who had taken the money. the fact they're taking a haircut is not anything ople want to cry tears over, the thing is now that we have crossed this red line, will the confiscation of other peoples property they call it tax, but it is a confiscation, will that go onto other countries? melissa: talk to me about the markets in the u.s. in relation to that, with a new record after new record, today it seems like it is slowing down, what is your outlook for people in the market were sitting on the sidelines thinking about getting out if something happens. >> let's assume this cyprus situation shortly contained. if what you may have seen today is indicative of the move the market is in with many investors where you have a big weakness in the futures market opened up relatively weak, very quickly turning around. it is a characteristic of the

market right now, a lot of sideline money looking for that dip. you have the recipe for a short-term correction which may be in the cards anyway. i remain optimistic longer-term, if you could have a short-term pullback at any point, but looking at the action, right now suggests we're still in a fairly healthy environment. melissa: you are the first person i have heard say that today. even though we had a down day, shows a little bit of strength in the market because it wasn't even weaker based on this news? speak i think it could have been weaker, and a lot of my looking to buy the dip. two days of weakness. i'm not here to forecast what every wiggle in the market is going to be nor do we think investors should, but with part

of your question is fed should investors get in, i am very fond of believing and saying get in or get out, that is gambling on a motive in time, should be a process over time. i do think there is a lot of underinvested investors in the equity on the fence looking for this. you get the money looking into by very quickly. melissa: you're both very fantastic, we really appreciate your time. melissa: here is the "money" question of the day, are you worried this could have been to other countries? you can follow me on twitter. all right, should you be going for the gold? many experts say the gold glory days are over, but any more than $12 per ounce today.

could the bailout jitters cause investors to flock into gold? with me now, strategist and founder of fearless wealth, and jonathan hoenig, fox news contributor. thank you to both of you. let me let you make your case first, what do you think investors should be doing in light of the conversation you just heard that came beforeou, what do you think? >> the cyprus thing is in part of what has been going on over the last 12 years, a chain of concern in people. we have had a small correction, but the fact physical demand is going up, this is just another situation and i'm glad somebody else said it, cyprus is not taxing people, they're taking money from them. this is getting increased

concern for people in history says when people's concern goes up, they go toward a sound investment and historically 2000 years gold has been that sound investment to only see this as another reason why people's concern increases. melissa: jonathan, what do you say about that? >> it is not exactly a real big move. bank of america while there was a banking crisis in europe, bank of america hit a 52-week high today. investors might be concerned, but i think they should actually avoid gold. more than any other reason, it is tremendously weak. stocks are on wonderfully forward-looking indicators. it has been a weak asset. you have to look at how assets are performing right here, not now.

melissa: mayb may be the reasond student jump today is because this is the calm before the storm. maybe this was a golden opportunity to get in on gold read >> i think gold is in an 18 year bull market. melissa: why is it 18 and we are 12 in? why are you predicting 18, why not 18 or 17? >> there's a history of the cycles that runs about 17 and a half years and what drives this cycle is what people are willing to pay for $1 of annual earnings for the s&p 500. when people are willing to pay more and more for the $1 of annual income dividend yield, you don't want to be into gold, but since 2000, people are paying less and less of annual income and when it goes down

over time it doesn't settle at 20. it usually ends with above single digits. that takes about 17 and a half years. i don't think a change of concern has changed fundamentals haven't changed. melissa: jonathan, jonathan, wait. >> what has happened in the last 12 years as gold has gone from being an asset which was doubted, not owned, to being widely owned and widely endorsed by the heard, if you will. if you want to look at the reality of what is happening in the market today, the dollar is strong, gold assets are weak. it is easy to say five, 10, 15 years down. melissa: on no very wealthy, very smart ceos who ask to have their bonuses paid in gold

because they're so worried about the currency and the market, so worried about what is going on in our country. these are really smart, really wealthy people. speakers should have asked to being paid in the stock in their own company. all of this concern of the currency, money printing, etc., doesn't exist. melissa: thank you for coming on. tell me what you think, the mortgage tax deduction could be over. that would be bad news on the housing recovery. plus, a sleeping giant awakes, the grim days for natural gas prices may be ending. so how can investors still jump in on the ground floor? a top expert will tell us how.

more "money" coming up, don't go anywhere.

melissa: let's talk about the

mortgage tax deduction, 46 when americans claim they read off in 2011 nearly 40% of all individuals tax returns. it is a hugely popular deduction for money i mayans of homeownery year. it could be changing in a big way which might have a big impact on the housing industry. he was more details what you need to kno is former fannie mae executive vice president institute fellow. welcome to the show. this is having a huge impact on housing industry, wouldn't it? >> of it were done right, and wouldn't have a huge impact, to be a beneficial. this deduction is outlived usefulness. literally 100 years, so the value of it has declined and declined and declined year-over-year. use the money that you saved to reduce marginal impact bracket which would be positive.

melissa: the devil is in that last detail you mentioned, what we really use eliminating it to lower marginal rates or would it be another thing that is sucked out to pay higher taxes. let's talk about how their talk about doing it in with the best way to do it would be, it wouldn't be so destructive to the market. the deduction is up $2 million, cut that in half, it is a psychological inducements to get a lot of people into the market. >> what it is is a psychological inducement for realtors to say buy a bigger house than you otherwise would buy because otherwise uncle sam would subsidize it. they have been doing it for many, many years. if yoit to convert into a tax ct just moved the distortion from the high-end of the market to the low-end of the market and

have already been through 15 years of distorting a low-end. this is just bad policy no matter how you look at it. this is an opportunity and we should take it. not worth as much, get rid of it over 10 years and the end of the day the devil is in the details, you have to use the money on the lord marginal tax rates. melissa: there are people weeping and throwing wads of paper. they make less than $100,000 per year. >> of the people who own homes, 40% itemize. melissa: a vast majority of those who used the deduction that less than $100,000 per year. it would hit people who make less money even harder.

>> i don't think that is the case because we look at the standard deduction for couples is now up to 12,000, $13,000 so if you're making under $100,000 per year, you get a $12,000 standard deduction, that pays for a lot of interest so you may be paying 13, falling into the production, only getting tax $1000. that is a false argument. melissa: a lot encouraged brokers to get into a bigger home, so even if that is wrong in the sense it is only good reason to get into a bigger home, it would in fact get people to buy less expensive house, wouldn't that be a tough thing to do to market right now when the housing recovery is just getting legs? >> the problem is the housing lobby now is never the time, over 30 or 40 years to discover the time to make any policy changes so look at it and see

how the lowest interest rates in 100 years, house prices are down from where they were so if you will not do it now, you'll never get it done. of course they will say it will cause dramati tremendous room. of course they're going to say that. melissa: lord only knows it read thank you for coming on, great stuff. coming up on "money," a high not seen since 2011. natural gas is a sleeping giant, that is roaring awake. that would take it home. how you can cash in. plus, investors could not care less about the dreamliner nightmare, they're pushing the stock toward a five-year high. is the worst over for boeing?

we have the details. can you ever have too much "money"? ♪

melissa: so turning to the weather now, spring officially starts this week and we expecting a drop in natural gas prices but instead we are seeing a pretty unusual spike. a 16 month high today, prices up 11% in the past month so this ed to be a pretty quiet markets now becoming a hot commodity. in fact my next guest calls natural gas a sleeping giant waiting to be awakened. how tightly is the shipment supply going to squeeze consumers? president and ceo joining me now. why do you think this is a sleeping giant, first of all?

>> like you said, this market has been tracking a very narrow range for years. it has been in the nrow range between 2-$5 for as long as i can remember. it just hasn't been a very interesting market to trade but we are seeing a shift in demand. demand is starting to meet supply, which for years it could not get close. not as much demand. we're starting to see those to approach each other now and getting much closer and new technologies, live, more gas-fired powerplants, that is no powerplants being built charcoal fire. a lot of elements coming to light. melissa: part of the reason we have seen natural gas is because of the tremendous supply. it is created just this tremendous supply in the u.s.

don't you think supply is going to keep prices suppressed for a while longer? >> it is 40% less drilling this year over last year already, it is certainly going to bring in more supply but the thing is we are seeing much more demand than we have ever seen before. they're not quite at the same level yet, but they are growing and growing. demand will surpass supply, less production and producers not as eager to jump back in and produce and produce and produce. ey will want prices to move up higher. so we are seeing a crossover now. we're starting to see a crossover in demand. even with fracking. melissa: there is so much demand that can come on relatively quickly. there are people willing to produce and the reason is that production is down 40% year over year is because prices have been so depressed. people will go out and immediately drill and the price

will come down, no? >> i would compare it to the rare earth metals market. because a lot of production come in, i don't think you will see it be as volatile as that. it will not come into quickly cause until they see the price that is attractive, it will not get that high that quickly. it will be over five years, i believe. this is a double-edged sword. this could create a lot of jobs if the government could participate in this rather than corn-based ethanol and say we will start program to create more pipeline in the northeast and the whole infrastructure of pipeline, it could create millions of jobs in all different areas. melissa: for the people in the audience you have convinced, what is the best way to make money off of it so you can hedge a higher energy bill for yourself, what stocks do you

like? >> there are several ways to play it. companies that have not been able to break out, transcanada comes to mind. a division where lng is a big part of this equation. this could be huge exports for the u.s. if they could find a way to make it affordable and build more ships and terminals. of course there is the etf, people can look at that and primarily what we do is we trade options on futures and futures on the natural gas as well. for those who can handle a little bit more speculation. melissa: thank you for coming on. a lot of people talking about it and really agreeing with you, thank you for coming on to explain your theory and how to make money off of it. >> thank you, melissa. melissa: the cyprus helped to surge a selloff in the oil
