8:01 pm
tear, how much? remember the s&p 500 30% increase last year? bank stocks as a group up 33%. they are not slowing down, money just keeping flowing in. we are looking at highest cash flow in to financial stock fund since 2008 crisis, not bad, not dumb. when you consider that profits are what is in large part driving this, wall street pros estimate that financial firms likely posted profit north of 24% last quarter, this would put them ahead of telecom, industrial, consumer discretionary companies, information technology, and consumer staples. many they one quarter does not a trend make. but then step back, ask yourself, why the interest rates are rising? maybe, maybe, the economy is improving? that housing truliy is reboun
8:02 pm
rebounding. we see that in moment prices, which are rocketing again. the demand for all types of loans, has been climbing again. i'm not saying we're off to the races but this cash flowing and bank stocks indicates we're at least off the map, if it reveals better news are in the economy history shows that banks are often early beneficiaries, but not the only one. you could say this all but a dead cat bounce, and banks are underwater from 2007. but i could look at same chart, conclude they are doing a hell of a lot better as a group than they did in 2007. i say resounding yes. i say believe it eand bank on it if i am wrong, i will destroy the tape, have you no proof. am i full of it?
8:03 pm
let's ask melissa frances, and alexandra scaggs, what do you think? >> i think everyone has poke en t-- ihave spoken to thinks thaty can continue in bank stocks. a lot of that -- >> the bank holders are those nene about the economy? >> they are confident about the economy, they think people will be borrowing more, employment is getting better. if they can lend out at higher interest rates they will evenly, it might take a while, but it will translate to bottom line. neilline. >> you know they know how to make money in every environment. that is why you could be right
8:04 pm
about this. neil: i don't think could. >> the other side, i'm concerned about fact that banks are washington's favorite whipping boy, they are those whether they take away their ability to charge fees and make money to trade prop trade. going after commodity businesses, they have done all they can to undermine the banks, it does not show any sign of slowing down. at the same time they are urge attack in legal porters. until they get out of sights of washington they still have problem. neil: we'll be exploring the other side of this issue in a moment. i look at whether this speaks well of the economy? normally in a rising rate environment, that is good news if the economy, banks benefit in this environment. and everyone else too. do you buy that? >> i do. i do. i think -- on one hand rates
8:05 pm
are rising because they have been close to zeeo for so very long. history long, now fed is talking about stepping back, and rates are rising. neil: are you surprised that bank stocks did not take more of a hit? >> it was surprising. but. you know the fed used as their rationale the fact that economy is getting better. i think people are buying that. people believe that the economy is getting better, people are seeing, employment is improving. people are borrowing because they are finding jobs. it is not great. but theerate of improvement. >> i don't think that rate environment has much impact, i have talk with jamie dimon of morgan stanley in the past. neil: well la dee da. >> he said they make money in
8:06 pm
every environment, on the margin on the loan. neil: he pay its back to the government. >> then he gets robbed, really. down the line had they come in take it back. but that is a different story. as rates go up they charge more. i think they figure out how to make money in every environment. but they are also you know being chased seriously by washington. follow they decide they will -- until they decide they attack someone, maybe it is the minimum wage debate. until they get off financials, they have trouble. neil: maybe we're trying to be too clever for words. we've been looking for next hot new offering it might be -- >> money. >> it is funny, people are looking for big stories this year, we're coming off 30% rise in s&p 500, that is think h hug. people are stretching.
8:07 pm
it is trying to finding and that looks cheap. neil: you know, i am so happy that hedge fund guys look so stupid. >> i did not say that. neil: they did not -- most of them, they look like high priced idiots. do any of them advertise on this show? >> not any more. neil: ladies thank you very much. >> now a lot of banks make money again is contingent on the banks keeping the money. try as jpmorgan chase might, it is not, a $2 million fine for jamie dimon in the very rough. regulators were clueless about madoff for years. that is $20 billion total of finds and penalty that j.p. morgaa alone will pay to get the
8:08 pm
messes from mortgages to madoff behind them. financial institutions of all sorts face all sorts of finds. a reason to hold back? to attorney randy zellon said fighting the government is a losing battle, a lot of still fighting. you are not an investor, if you were a betting man, you would not bet on bank stocks. >> i would not bet on me being unseemly rich. neil: i am saying melissa frances rich. >> i am randy zellon rich. when you have done is you set the bar. you set market, somebody smarter than i said, it is no different when you pay robby cano $24 million a year, that is new gold standard. bad news for banks you paid $2 million on madoff, if you get
8:09 pm
into trouble again or similar, you are not going to payless, you go to pay more. good news, you get to to live it fight another day, nobody goes to jail. neil: that might be case with this 5 year proviso they could delay any further punishment if they just do what the government says. still talking $20 billion collectively a single firm paid to u uncle sam. yet the stock is doing well. it makes me think that critics of the bank say there is more money to be had there. >> there is no question. ask any celebrity. worse day of your life, when you no longer get recognized at a restaurant, you hate it on the way up. neil: i hate when i walk into mcdonald's and no one knows me, you are right. >> the 59 to be made, and -- point to be made, and take away, if you pay $20 billion but make
8:10 pm
$40 billion or 50 billion or 60 billion, you take that deal, every single day of the week. so once again, it is a cost of doing business, and stock rise. neil: randy that is a big cost of doing business, whether you can afford it or not, numbers have changed the equation. you add them up. we're talking now north of $50 billion, they have been able to pay. more buying interest in stocks. but are we getting too trigger happy. >> i don't think so, i think that very smart men and women, who price stocks and make their predicts, figured it was if $2 bill drop or lesbillion or lessd right. 1 the news is out it is too late, we see rise in the stocks because analyst predict, $2 billion. but point remains, if the banks can afford to make it and
8:11 pm

8:32 pm
the 11 attorneys general focus on administrative fixes. here's the problem with them. as i think the record public knows, the president has an obligation to faithfully execute the laws. is called the take care costs. he has ignored the provision which is not acceptable. while the administration possesses some discretion in terms of when they enforces, tht just get to ignore the law wholesale. that is one of the things of this happened here. neil: he says the takeover provision means he has to take care to make the law workable and usable and were called to your work or three -- workable ultimately for millions of americans. is the author and legalized? >> i think he is. the fact is that all of the court cases interpreting the take care provision look to ensure that the president and their agencies faithfully execute the law which means that
8:33 pm
they have some bouncing in judgment that they can engage in, but that is not what happened here. the assertion naturally took the position and it was of a right to begin forcing. they try to end the provision of to the state budget seven and a lawful manner. they went way too far when they came up with this new condition as the way you can get these administrative fixes. a violation of separation of powers or at a minimum of a better to comply with the administrative procedures act. this is not the first time that there must up a regular at the employer mandate cause of a cost sharing provisions, you look at a number of issues relating to low income verification and the continuing disregard the law which is not what an executive branch is supposed to do. neil: chair sure you heard the premise services margins you.
