"after the bell" starts right now. david: most teenagers don't have meetings with billionaires. silicon valley ceos and hollywood movie stars are looking to invest in their talents but we have a guest who wasn't your average teenager. now at the young age of 18 he is a millionaire who is taking ces by storm and he joins liz live in las vegas. liz, who are we talking about? liz: david, we just ran from interview with qualcomm's ceo over here to yahoo! which shows how far the consumer electronics show has really come. it is not just about consumer gadgets, about the app system, ecosystem of media and of course how something like yahoo! would really be connected. i want to introduce you in a first on fox business interview with nick delasio he created the

app simply that yahoo! bought a year ago. you taught code in your parents house when you were 12. you are sort of the new brain trust in many ways for yahoo! first, sumley a langage aggregator or summarizer, today, marisa mayer, show the video, because she gave a speech that was very well-received and talked about yahoo! news digest. when your app went away everyone said when it is coming back, here it is. >> absolutely. it is a great day. the app on the store store 24 hours and number one. liz: what does the app do. >> it the app allows you quickly get a sense of die best for top news of the day. we want to give the stories in summarized and easy to understand form. we broke down a new story into units or elements such as atoms. atoms could be summary, images,

info graphics, stock ticker, maps. the point each unit gives awe different context on the story. liz: are you saying if you go to yahoo! news die best, you, the meaning the reader will be up to speed on themost important news nuggets that happened overnight when you first wake up or whenever you tune in. >> exactly. we have two digests one in the morning, one in the evening every day, seven days a week. you read this product how a newspaper gives you sense of completion how i'm in the know and informed this product gives you that. liz: let me push back. sumly is a interesting concept except through algorithm efforts you distill what could be a complicated story to cliff notes. >> right. liz: are you losing important detail. we as americans should be more educated are we getting into the twitter world of 140 characters? and how does your algorithm make sure that the right details get into the story? >> well the interesting thing with the new product, unlike summly we have editors and

algorithms at work. liz: so humans. >> humans are involved. liz: headline, humans will be involved in yahoo! news digest. >> we mentioned that yesterday. that helps us get the quality that we want. also the point of the product is that we cluster together multiple articles on a story. so when the user is reading that story, if they want to, they can read all the original articles in full depth. i don't think they will be missing out on news. the point you have the night summary. if you want to go further you can from there. liz: such an interesting story, when you created simply you received a call from chinese ventures. you didn't know what the organization. it turned out to be china's richest man? did you know him when he called. >> i didn't know it would be the richest man in asia's fund. it is surreal to notice i was 15. liz: how did they find out? >> we did a phone call with them. at the end of the phone call i mentioned my age. i have didn't do it at the start

because i wanted to see if they were interested in the product. liz: what did they say? >> they didn't believe and flew out from hong kong to london so verify it. liz: do you still live at your parents. >> i live same house and same school. final year in the u.k. liz: why did you -- you were courted by many others? >> i was really excited about the mobile strategy of marisa mayer and with they're doing. this product the news digest they given me ability to design and create new products. i wanted that scale and resource i might not have had from other companies. liz: what is next? aside from yahoo! digest, what else are you working for in the pipeline. >> i'm excited about this product. we're working with new paradigms. of the eventually with so many other iterations. liz: as the young pup on the floor here what excites you here ex-yahoo!? have you been work walking

around what do you say that is the next cool thing. >> i've been walking around there. is new concept like a smart television. or paradigm you own a television with applications and user interface. i think that is interesting. yahoo! is doing stuff there. there are other -- liz: nick sold his company to yahoo! before he could even drive. how about that? congratulationses. >> thank you. liz: i bet you enjoy your new life which is very much down-to-earth. >> thank you. liz: first on fox business. we should all have kids like this. when which come back, oculus rift, this is getting a ton of buzz at ces. virtual reality gamer headset where you actually crawl inside the videogames, david. unbelievable. the but there may be brand new applications for military, for health care and more. brendan iribe is ceo. david: i heard about at that. that was a great kid. some kids you hate who make

david: told you before the commercial break, t-mobile shares are halted. let's go to nicole petallides on floor of the new york stock exchange. the numbers are looking pretty good. why is the stock halted after-hours. >> halted prior to the closing bell. after i was on with you, i heard tmus. no more trading rest of the day. halted before the closing bell. about three minutes before. the stock was trading quite

violently. through the day, see the pop. talk about what we talked about for the numbers. came out with customers results for preliminary of fourth quarter for 2013. they added 664,000 customers. the customer base now moved to 46.7 million at the end of the fourth quarter and churn, 1.7%. the prepaid, net customer additions of 112,000. so, these are some of the numbers that come out that managed to move the stock higher late in the day for it. m u.s. it was -- tmus. i was on before you, with one of the traders couldn't get confirmation at that moment but trading quite heavily and wild going into the closing bell. david: we haven't stopped monitoring. as soon as it begins trading we'll let viewers know. thank you very much, nicole.

let's get to today's market action. craig johnson from piper jaffrey said we'll see a big correction but you can still make money and he has ideas for you. we have todd horowitz, the market didn't seem to be, i was surprised that most of the participants said that they should end bond purchases by end of 2014. did that surprise you at all? >> hi, david, happy new year. didn't really surprise me because i think, the big majority of the fed really wants to get through with this program but they don't have enough powtory push it over. everybody would like to see the end of qe. they would like to see the bond purchasing stop already. what is happening the bond market itself, as we've seeing 10-year over 3%. david: todd, what happens when the music stops? in particular who will buy the bonds, mortgage-backed securities in particular the fed

is buying almost exclusively? >> i think what will happen is the market will be in for some pretty heavy selling. i'm not predicting a crash but i do think that we're in bubble territory. what will happen is, the markets will start to take some hits. we have to start seeing real growth. we have not seen jobs. you just heard macy's going to let go of 2500 people. that is just the start. wait until you see what happens with the rest going forward. the jobs picture and market is not in a good state right now. david: craig, you have a very specific forecast. you see a 17% correction coming. tell us how it plays out in your mind. >> thanks, david, happy new year. we think in 2014 a hop, drop and ultimately a pop. we think this market will ultimately work its way a little higher, up toward 2,000. so many people we talk to are believing market is ahead of itself and overdue. we think, yes, it will see a

pullback and coming from a higher level. we'll see market pull back and retest the key support level where we broke out from. now just look back -- david: let me stop you for a second, craig. markets are rarely orderly. very often when you think will happen is not exactly the way it will happen. there develops momentum. what makes you think it will stop at 17%, the correction? >> well, that's a great question, david. when you look at a long-term s&p 500, you will see that we had been stuck in a 13-year bear market trading range. and in 2013, we broke out above that level much and from a technical perspective, when you break out of those kind of base, you accelerate to the upside. that is exactly what is happening right now. it doesn't stop at year-ends and those kind of a time periods. but then you get ahead of yourself, you pull back and got to come back and retest support. that is where the 17% pull back comes into play. takes us back to about 1650 on the s&p 500.

we think we'll find good support in that area. then you set ourselves upper for the next big move up in the market. we think by end of 2014 we're at about 2100. so that's a pop at the end of the year. david: well, craig, should i just wait and not buy any stocks until we get that correction? or is there, are there stocks to buy into now even contemplating a 17% correction? >> yeah, so what i think you need to do, commentary about what is happening with rising interest rates, suggest that is we're in a tina environment. there is no alternative. we need to own equities. i would suggest to people, depending on their time horizons, think about buying good, quality, dividend paying blue chip stocks and ride through some volatility. stocks on financial side are cna insurance. they should benefit from a rising rate environment. on industrial side, stocks like spx, or ticker spw look constructive and look like there is more room to work.

i should say on the consumer cyclical side, stocks like gco look constructive. those are three names we would focus on and again believe we want to take a longer-term perspective on this arket. david: todd horowitz, i want you to look into the crystal ball. tell us when rates are really going to pop. we keep having days when there are three or four basis point pops but when will it start moving to the upside? >> i think late second quarter, early third quarter, when we see rates start to take over. i wouldn't be surprised to see 4% by end of the year. david: late second quarter, early third quarter, you agree craig, quickly? from our perspective we think we'll be in 3.25, 3.5% range at end of 2014 based on set up on benchmark 10-year bond yield. only concern is if rates come up too quickly we'll have another june 2013 on our hands. that could trigger ultimately that 1% pullback. david: wonderful stuff. craig johnson, todd horowitz,

of the surrounding marketplace than the chief financial officer. no one does a better job surveying ceos than the accounting firm deloitte. the one in charge of the cfo program is sandy cockrell, joins us in a fox business exclusive to discuss exactly what they found. sandy, thanks for coming. first of all, what kind of companies are you surveying? >> these are the country's 100 largest companies, multinationals that trade around the world. david: there is optimism, particularly about internals. everybody is getting tight and good at cut cutting expenses. there is pessimism about sales growth. explain. >> what the survey said, cfos are forecasting 4.1% year-over-year sales growth. that is actually a survey low. we've run the survey four years, 15 quarters and that is the survey low. david: this is the smallest increase, there you see it, number three on that list there, sales growth, 4.1% but incredible thing that earnings are twice thaa.

how can you double earnings of sales growth. >> great point. that is the trend. last few quarters of the survey. what we found is that the revenues have continued to pretty much flatten out but earnings have actually been pretty healthy. this quarter at 8.6% which is up a little bit from last quarter's survey low of 8% but still down from the survey average -- david: is that because of layoffs and because of tightening? there is limit how much tightening you can do to get earnings? >> cfos are pretty confident they can execute internal on cost controls. that is why we see internal optimism. david: the interesting thing, productivity come down a little bit in this country. and yet, i imagine productivity is part of the reason why they keep earnings up despite sales coming down? >> no question about it. they're looking for external sales growth. david: why is it? what is the reason why sales are going to be down? >> they're not forecasting any external growth in the marketplace. when you look at major economies

which these companies trade they are not very confident there is general economic growth to lift these up. david: these are very significant, prognostications because cfos advice managers below them to buy equipment based on their growth figures. >> yes. david: does that mean the big-ticket items will not be bought as much because they have lower growth forecasts? >> what is being forecast is 6.5% increase in capital spending which again below the survey average. it is up from last quarter but still relatively low. david: interesting. the costs of regulations, in particular obamacare, let's talk about obamacare. we know small and medium-sized companies, the 49ers and above are getting hurt particularly hard. how about the big guys. >> what we're seeing two things. first of all no question trends are across the company group they're pushing more costs to the employees. what the survey says 40% of cfos -- david: you have to say survey says. >> survey says 40% of the

cfosare pushing costs to their employees because of obamacare. david: so employees will bear the brunt of this. >> that's what we'll see. david: in terms of higher out of salary cuts? >> yes. two things. number of one, sharing costs of premiums. also higher deductibles to keep the plan cost down. david: hiring of workers if you have, p you have fewer workers, particularly more part-time workers you can save money on obamacare. >> that's right. david: is that coming into the forecast? >> we asked the question. at this point point a little too early to tell. only 4% of the cfos said they shifted from full-time workforce to part time. we're still aways away from the employer mandate kicking those questions will be more relevant next few quarters. david: not just obamacare. we have bunch of new financial regulations. how do they factor that in. >> regulations are number one cited risk especially when you get into industries. that is something they have a big fear will actually continue to curtail the growth of having

to fly with regulation that is are unforeseen and unpredictable. >> let's end on an optimistic note because we started on a pessimistic. >> okay. david: internals are so good, have you ever seen the internals in terms of way these big corporations are run better than they are now? >> no, they're actually extremely efficient. this is the first time in the history of the survey we've seen four consecutive quarters where cfos were more optimistic than less optimistic. that's a pretty good sign. david: does that mean our global positioning is terrific? we always hear, we've been hearing past couple of weeks, look to europe because that is where you should put your money. sounds like what you're saying we're going to beat the hell out of those guys? >> it is pretty interesting. if the you look at north american economy cfos are relatively optimistic about that. more than half will be better a year from now. china, roughly the same thing, 40% of the cf opts say it is good today. it will be good a year from now. europe is a different story. only 4% of the cfos said europe had a good economy. less than a quarter expected to

improve in a year. david: sandy cockrell, deloitte national program managing partner. great study. great survey. thanks for bringing it to us exclusively. >> thank you. david: crazy as it seems after this crazy weather business is booming for ice-making companies. we'll take you to chicago to find out why at the aptly-named, polar ice company. we'll go back to liz in las vegas as well. liz, what is coming up? >> well, one of the biggest, buzzsiest pieces is oculus rift. it is a headset not even on the market. it visiter wall reality gaming system. fox business about to reveal it with the crystal motion action. we've got it and ceo exclusively in a second. it helps you crawl inside of a videogame. ♪ mine was earned orbiti the moon in 1971.

liz: we are going to end our coverage of consumer electronics show 2014 with a little fun and we're talking about a little amazing fun. behold, the oculus rift. this is one of the most talked about products here at consumer electronics show. it is a virtual reality headset and in a fox business exclusive we are showing this to you. brendan iribe is the creator, founder. you worked with palmer lucky, the one who cobbled original one together with things he found in his parents garage. now you have this.

what is it? >> this is the oculus rift. this is the we're here at ces prototype. it is still prototype. not out for consumers yet. for the first time virtual reality works. this is something people have been imagining some years, 30, 40 years, people are thinking one day we'll put on a headset and be in the game. hasn't happened until now. now it works. liz: but it is not on shelf yet? >> not yet. liz: you have sold 40,000, wait a minute, we heard you had sold 40,000 kits so far. is that number correct? >> 46,000. it continues to sell. liz: breaking news, it is now 46,000. how much are the developer kits. how much do they cost? >> $300. liz: $300. >> launched on kick-starter and then on our website after that. kick-starter we sold a little over 11,000 and since then we sold 40,000 on our website. liz: one of the top venture capitalists mark andreessen saw

this and said i'm in. >> creator of internet and netscape. joiners round of 75 million. to date we raised 90 million for the venture which is a awful lot in 60 months. liz: a huge vote of confidence. from a gaming standpoint, what do i get from this? >> this is a whole new experience. we've been playing games for the last 30 years. 19, what is it, 77 that apple brought out the, or apple brought out the apple 2 gs. since then we've been playing fame on monitor, 2-d monitor or 3-d. there is three deexperience. there is no window to the world -- 3-d experience. liz: what games are available when this comes to market? >> just like pc, game console or even mobile device there will bb a huge slate of games. there will be games from big publishers and big developers. a lot of games actually from

indy. apple iphone or android platform ask popular with tons of apps from indis first. that's what we expect from virtual realty. small developers will make amazing. liz: 3-did stereo skop pick. >> true stereo skoppic. liz: one of the biggest crittisms about these, when you put them on it gives you motion sickness. i talked to couple of people. one tried it and said he got motion sick. i know you worked very hard to make sure that goes away but has it truly been solved? >> it will never be 100% solved. there are people who can't play games on 2-d television or pc still. we'll get much closer. we joke if you can handle reality you should be able to handle virtual reality once we track things well enough. we're getting very close. here at ces we're talking about the prototype and talking about

come fort and comfortable experience. we're getting much, much closer. liz: it is. has a lot of padding and show right here. i just put it on and felt very comfortable. samsung and sony, might be comfortable trying not to knock it off but try to develop their own. three years ago, sony gave me a virtual headset to try. wasn't as developed as this they're knocking on the door too. >> they're thinking about it. we're talking to a lot of folks. right now we're developing our own technology, completely on our own but we're also out there and engaging and looking what else is coming. being aware of technology. right now we have really a very unique approach that nobody has taken before, using actual cell phone technology in there to give this incredible experience that allows to you deliver at low price point. if you look what sony is doing, they announced in the keynote new headset that is 12 or 1300 pounds which is over $2,000. this is $300. liz: affordable and china, david, just lifted its ban on

videogame consoles. so perhaps this will be included under. good luck. >> thank you. liz: brendan irib he, ceo of oculus rift. remember the name, 46,000 kits are sold, david. we'll be watching this one. big, big create tivity. back to you and signing off from the terrific crew at ces 2014. david: wonderful stuff. wonderful crew. i would risk the motion sickness to get in on that. started on kick-starter, another successful kick-starter start. liz, thank you very much. great week. liz: thank you. david: let's go "off the desk." amazon is developing drones for delivering packages but how about drones for filming wildlife? a british wildlife photographer is capturing some stunning aerial shots of africa using a homemade drone, called the beetle copter. the homemade drone is smaller and quieter than a helicopter so you can get up close to the wildlife without scaring them off. the photographer can control the drone from half a mile away

using remote screen and virtual real think goggles. look at that. incredible. key survey of cfos found a pessimistic view on sales growth which hit an all-time low. so we asked you on facebook and twitter if you think this pessimism is justified? will there be a sales slow down in 2014? david: two stocks to keep an eye on. macy's well slash 2500 jobs as part of restructuring. they're up after-hours. that so often happens when companies announce layoffs and then the stock goes up afterwards. we are also keeping an eye on it. mobile as well. still the stock is halted after it announced that it added 1.6 million customers in the

fourth quarter. so look to see what happens to that. i'm looking right now. yep, it is still halted after-hours. thank you for joining us today. we'll see you back here tomorrow. "money" with melissa francis is next. melissa: oh, yeah, that is some cash, baby. doing good out here today? >> yeah, doing good. melissa: he is the not the only one turning cold weather into cold hard cash because even when they say it's not it is always about money. melissa: oh, baby, it is cold outside. if you're selling ice cream or offering bike rides, you might expect to see frozen profits and patrons fleeing to the nearest coffee shop. but at the iconic serendipity 3 in new york city, people are still lining up outside of the restaurant for a chance to sample their signature frozen
