11:01 am
first, nicole petallides at the new york stock exchange. nicole: good morning. after two days of selling and yesterday obviously was a dramatic one for some, there were some folks that were very nervous about today. there were others who said, hey, that is what you do. there is certainly a mixed bag here. all of these things are the things that people are obviously talking about here on wall street. connell: thank you, nicole. peter barnes from d.c. peter:.
11:02 am
the obama administration is defending verizon. the order approved by a special court in april was first reported in "the guardian" newspaper yesterday. it has been a critical tool in protecting the nation from terrorist threats to the united states as it allows counterterrorism personnel to discover whether known or suspected terrorists have been in contact with other persons who may be involved in terrorist act to the d's. some members of congress are concerned. others are not. >> homegrown terrorism is one of my biggest concerns. it is happening in our
11:03 am
backyards. i am a verizon customer. i do not mind verizon turning over records to the government if the government will make sure that they try to match up a known terrorist with somebody in the united states. i am glad that activity is going on. it is limited to tracking people that are expected to be terrorists and who they may be talking to. the sweep is underway right now and ends in july. we also reached out to at&t and sprint about whether or not they are under such orders. they declined to comment as well. dagen: thank you, peter barnes. the u.s. government is reportedly keeping tabs.
11:04 am
connell: now to the markets. jamie dimon had some interesting things to say. he says he sees a scary world when banks bring interest rates back to normal. we bring in a chief economist to talk about that. it is a good thing for interest rates to normalize over time. but, as we get there it will be kind of volatile in the markets. >> at one level it is an obvious statement. i am a little bit puzzled by this statement. i think as we approach that point, you know, there will be
11:05 am
some volatility in the markets. that is to be expected. we have been talking about it a couple years now. i am a little puzzled. connell: maybe he is making a statement that he thought was also obvious. what does that world look like to you? obviously, the world needs some volatility mixed in. >> i would say more challenging and trickier. investors can borrow at fairly low rates. that will change. you have to be more discriminating. you have to be more careful. that is not a bad thing. connell: if the economy is getting better, that would be the right reason for rates to be
11:06 am
rising. as interest rates go up, what would you be worried about? >> certainly the bond market is one to worry about. i am not terribly worried about bond bubbles. i worry much more about other markets. for example the market for emerging market debts. that is sort of in a bubbly area recently. the, oddity market is already factoring in this. connell: more about this as we continue. thank you. dagen: we have a self-described entrepreneur, product innovator with us now.

12:02 pm
>> does the nsa collected any type of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions of americans? >> no, sir. >> it does not? >> not wittingly. there are cases where they could inadvertently perhaps collect, but not wittingly. dennis: an interesting characterization. joining us is former nsa inspector general joel brenner. thanks for being with us. how unusual is a blanket request like this for a billion phone call the day covered by this request? how unusual is it or is it par for the course? >> white house seems to be acknowledging that this is in fact the genuine order. two things about this order strike me as peculiar. one of them is it is collecting
12:03 pm
domestic to foreign intelligence. that is exactly what the foreign intelligence surveillance court was set up to do, exactly what the legislation permits it to do. what is unusual is the order extends to domestic to domestic calls. and s. a. just doesn't do that ordinarily. we don't know what is behind this order but before intelligence surveillance court doesn't issue an order like this without a reason. my guess is without knowing there is an investigation going on that has led the officials to somebody who is a subscriber or an employee of verizon business. you ought to understand this order doesn't extend to all of verizon loan other carriers,
12:04 pm
just verizon business. it is entirely possible, a leading hypothesis they have done investigation at one of these at verizon, they want to find out who that perso talking to. dennis: a faster exchange, why if the government already has its eyes on a particular group of suspects, why are you requesting a billion calls a day? why not narrow your request? is in part to mask what you're doing? >> pull on a moment. let's lower the heat a little bit. suppose we have been led, we're doing an investigation of something and are led to mr. x and we wanted to know who mr. x is communicating with? we don't know that in advance so we are not going to ask for an order that gives us the contents of mr. x's phone calls. dennis: u.s. for everyone's
12:05 pm
phone records. >> you are not listening. if you want to find out who mr. x is talking to you have to look at the universe of calls and then you throw out all the records accept the records of the person they're talking to. that is the only way to do the investigation. dennis: here is what bothered me. of thought that the nsa and the fbi asked to see records on 1 billion calls a day, first of all i doubt they even have software to sift through that much data to find any pattern. doesn't that mean we are clueless about preventing terror attacks? we don't know where to begin. if we are taxing that why? >> it doesn't mean that. if you want to find out who mr. x is talking to you have to look at the universe of records and take out what you need to look
12:06 pm
at and throw away the rest. there is no other way to figure out mr. x's co-conspirators. dennis: to follow instead of going after billions, seems like overreach. one of the most interesting angles is you feel based on your nsa experience of this existed might be a particular investigation where congress, this has been done for years. and that could tell us a lot about the situation. appreciate you being with us. >> we want to hear from you. connell: the u.s. government keeping tabs on call records of verizon customers, national-security or government overreach? tweet us at dennis kneale, at cheryl casone and fox business. your tweets to dennis kneale
12:07 pm
more important apparently. cheryl: bill perez tweeting me, irs and nsa agents like a dumb and dumber, followers have a good sense of humor. dennis: this is more than a overreach, big brother telling us what to do and if we do not comply there is trouble. cheryl: the have chairman of the intel committee, and stealing american intellectual property. and on tuesday. >> you need to be tough now. this is a crutch for them in the sense of 7% social programs. they added by theft. it is unsustainable in the
12:08 pm
economy and not good for their economy. this is the time for tough love. cheryl: chinese cyber intrusions cost u.s. businesses $300 billion annually. and there on the rise. the cyberdefense turning to cyberinsurance, joining me is the ceo of specialists then walterman. you have been doing this for eight years. what did you see eight years ago the rest of us are picking up on now? >> a few things pulled the big thing that is picking up is more and more tax on small firms so historically the big retailers, big health-care hospitals and other institutions that don't have the most sensitive data and records. more and more has been outsourced, increasing the tax on smaller and smaller businesses because it is a way to back end. gerri: you are offering insurance, what is the cost for
12:09 pm
that and how much have you had to pay out in the last year or so? >> we don't disclose claims because it wouldn't be appropriate but i can tell you what has changed is 46 different states and the federal government have rules about when you as the company faced a data breach you have to notify customers of that brief regardless whether or not the data was used for any ill used doesn't matter and the costs can be tremendous. over the course of last year one of the big cybersecurity companies has released a study that shows the average cost to a company of paying out all the costs of notification is $188,000 and they went out of business. cheryl: going out of business because of the cyberattacks is huge and something at the end of the day you cannot insure. let's talk about your user account, small and medium-sized business as a threat to larger companies. because of that, the larger
12:10 pm
companies could come back and sue the small or medium-sized companies. that is a risk. >> we tell clients you can outsource your data but not reliability. even if someone else's hosting it or retaining it is still your liability and you still on the hook. >> how much does it cost, a general figure with a business would have to pay out. >> leave of the fortune 500, most businesses get the coverage they need starting at $1,000 going to 20,000 and how many records. cheryl: that is how they are protecting themselves. we will be covering this. it gets worse and worse. we will see what the president is saying about this. thank you very much. dennis: jamie dimon, fortune global forum event calling for return to normal interest rates. one problem is as we go back to normal it will be scary and volatile for the markets as we are starting to see, stuart varney to meredith whitney, what she had to say.
12:11 pm
>> i say the longer environment has been very weak so what banks have done has put security on their books and making money off of asset inflation and if rates rise the value of bonds godowns so that is a real capital issue for a lot of banks, a lot of insurance companies across the globe. dennis: christopher is look joins me now. do you agree with jamie dimon that we have got to return to normal but secondly is going to be scary? >> i believe we have to go back to normal and it is going to be scary, completely agree with him. interest rates rise to a level that in carriages lending and also allows us to have less and predictability as to when the fed will stop doing what they are doing. we have to return to normal markets. dennis: if the fed is going to ease back on its lose money policies it will do that because the economy is getting better. it should be good news. why are the markets afraid of the fact that the fed will pull

back when the economy is improving? >> the economy is improving, that is absolutely a great thing. we want the economy to recover. the difference is the asset bubble created by the fed policies, if that disappears you lose the safety net underneath the market that ben bernanke put. if that disappears, the market has to stand on its own two feed as opposed to being supported from behind by the federal reserve. dennis: in the economy arguably vastly better shape than it was when the big downturn started in october of 2008, exports of 30%, the debt is down, cash is up, what is to be so fearful about? >> main thing people are afraid of is the physical environment, regulatory environment and that we had a huge problem out there, federal debt caused by the bailout so no question market had responded to a better economic environment. the key is is it sustainable, the market is a forward looking animal. if we cannot get convincing
12:13 pm

12:47 pm
important to you because your home is where the tornados were. >> there was all this excitement about the beer being announced and is not in market yet. won't be in market until the fall but we made sure what we did basically was made tee shirts and said there's all this excitement, we want to make sure everybody is excited about that and it is an opportunity to engage in that and most importantly the money goes to people who are being directly affected by that tornado. in general, by dealing with beer you are trying to leverage whatever you can to make a difference and if people are excited about the story of a beer, what is the best way to channel that energy? dennis: what is it like when you see yourself when you were so little and it makes you feel goosebumps or do fringe and feel embarrassed? >> we love that song, we wrote
