9:30 am
and then. where are the pundits looking for a pullback, they should be be applauding this, we've got the fed meeting this week and it's going to be a bumpy rides. the stocks will go up because we're going to accommodate all year long. stuart: you've relaxed a lot of people, well done, young man. let's go to the markets, we're open and it's monday morning and we're coming off the worst one-week decline in a couple of years and we're opening ever so slightly lower. i was looking at the futures earlier, which indicated at a higher opening, not by much, 20, 30 points maybe, and now the trend is ever so slightly higher. 26. we'll watch that one for you. the dow is getting some help this morning from caterpillar, which is a dow stock. what's the story, nicole? >> stronger than expected quarterly profit helps caterpillar move up 6 1/2%, a huge move for caterpillar and keep an eye on john deere as
9:31 am
we well, your favorite a track for. >> that's helping for sure. how about cisco. >> 29 points because of caterpillar. let's get to cisco, downgraded cisco and basically there are concerns about the weakness in emerging markets and delayed spending in that market. so, brokerage cut the stock target to 17 bucks from 21 bucks. >> it's a door stopper as usual. thanks, nicole. let's bring in ed butowsky, the money manager to the wealthy. ed, you say the caterpillar rally is a red herring, i think you think there's more selling to come? >> there's no question. if you hit, i think the number, we're about a very, very small amount of money, excuse me, points below where we need to go, where we see a massive selloff. when i say massive selloff. i think computer driven selling. i think we've got a lot more down side. the earnings on caterpillar are
9:32 am
better than expected, but lowered the number of what they were hooking for. let's also point out it was mainly accounting and currency play that got them better than expected earnings. it was not unit growth. the economy around the world isn't good. stocks moved based on expected earnings. i do think we're going to see some pretty good selling in the next couple of months. stuart: so you're pouring some cold water all over those warm and fuzzy feelings a lot of us have. don't say anything, okay? we'll come back to you in a couple of minutes because i know you've got a couple of utilities you like and will pay me a big dividend. stay right there. ed. google's stock, they paid 400 million for a london based artificial intelligence company, deep mind. tech watcher ted murphy joins us from orlando. ted, look, google's getting into everything. they're buying up the whole planet. now it's machines that think. what's google doing with this? where are they going with this? can you tell us? >> you know, there's a lot of speculation out there about what this all means, but one of the things that we do know for sure
9:33 am
is that google is very interested in creating self-driving cars. so, if you take their acquisitions and robotics and take their acquisitions here with artificial intelligence and bring the two things together and i think you've got a perfect recipe to have a self-driving car in the future. stuart: not as an investor, don't address this as an investor, just address this as a private citizen, are you a little worried about google getting into thinking machines? some talk out there, but skynet. right? the killer robots on one side and you've got machines that can think for themselves. you've got the acquisition of net so they can turn up the heat in your house and so you can go out and the robots can get you. it comes together here. i think we're okay at least near term. we're not going to have killer robots, but i will say that this is a huge power play. google has had four acquisitions here in the last month, they're definitely very interested in becoming more than just a search
9:34 am
engine. stuart: very interesting, ted. stay there, i'll be back to you in a second on bitcoin, watch out for that. nicole, we've got another infected cruise ship. this is royal caribbean lines, 300 ills. >> horrible. hundreds are ill. royal caribbean is up 2 1/2%, there's a story about the sick people on the ship, which is current it had, right? and then there's the story of the latest quarter, it turns out that profit was good in the latest quarter so the stock is jumping on the quarterly report. not on the fact that they've got some cleaning up to do now because you have maybe 600 passengers that are ill. stuart: i don't think many people are expecting the stock to go up this monday morning, but it's up 2%. nicole, thanks very much indeed. sandra? seems like you can have one pr disaster after another for the cruise industry and nothing happens. you want to explain it? >> it goes to show as long as you produce a profit. they reported their numbers and they were profitable in the
9:35 am
latest quarter, compared to a huge loss in the same quarter last year. as long as they post the numbers, the investors buy the stocks and they seem to be shrugging off the bad news for the weekend. dare i ask you, would you take a cruise? >> no, i'm not against the cruise industry, i have a sister that loves the cruise, i'd rather a small boat. >> a yacht. >> i'd dream, let's put it that way. stuart: you prefer the yacht. ed butowsky please come back in, i know you like utilities because they pay a healthy dividend give us two utilities that you like and tell us how much dividend they pay. go. >> well, i like firstenergy and right now, they cut their dividend recently. they still are paying a dividend and i see an upside from 31 up to 36. and i love dominion, my favorite utility and that is paying somewhere around 3.6% based in the virginia area. and i see about a 16% gain on the equity, plus you figure that
9:36 am
potential, you know, gain off of that income. so, i really like both of those utilities. and stuart, i want to ad the california utilities are undervalued. if you're out there and you're a buying, the ones in texas are doing well. i'd stay away from the ones in the midwest. stuart: you like 3, 4, 5% that some of the utilities will pay you? you think if you've got a bunch of stocks some should be a utility. >> no question you shouldn't wake up any day without utility in your portfolio. stuart: we look to you for guidance. appreciate it. back to ted murphy, i've got to ask you about bitcoin, i promised the viewers i would ask about it. i know you're a fan of bitcoin, i can't understand that. most authorities in the world are trying it stamp this thing out, but you like it? by the way, one bitcoin is worth $807 as of this morning. the value is all over the place. >> well, you know, depends on
9:37 am
what market you're looking at. so it actually spiked up over $1,000 this weekend. i've got a bold prediction, i'm going to go ahead and say that bitcoin is going to hit $2000 by the end of this year and here is why. one, you have people that are just totally enamored with bitcoin and driving awareness and we're talking about it and more and more people become aware of it and it drives up demand. two, yyu have retailers and other people interested in accepting bitcoin because it's driving down the transaction costs. instead of paying 2 or 3% to the credit card companies, they get to save those transaction fees. three, you have huge, huge investments being made in bitcoin and it's coming from venture capitalists and it's also coming from the people that are mining bitcoin. bitcoin mining is becoming more and more expensive you've got to invest tens of thousands, millions of dollars to be n competitive as a miner and that's going to drive prices up over time and i'm bullish.
9:38 am
stuart: we heard you and you're on videotape, too. you've got to tell me about facebook. you're buying, i believe, you're buying the idea that came out with the princeton idea that compared facebook to a disease that will run its course and go away. facebook will go away, what? >> look, i've been saying this for years and it's not specific to facebook or any other social network, if you look at what's happened with aol, you look at what happened with myspace, there's a natural cycle that the social networks go through. it's more and more the older generation what you pile on what you see is a mass exodus from the younger generation. you're seeing a decline from the tweens and people in their early 20's and they're looking for something new, it's not to say that facebook is going away tomorrow or that particular report said it was going to lose 80% of users by 2017. i don't necessarily believe that, but i do believe that facebook's got to innovate and
9:39 am
see continued acquisitions there and they're going to have to look at companies like snap chat and pinterest and figure out how do we get towards this younger user base. stuart: there's that ted murphy again, he loves bitcoin, hates facebook. come back to us, please, we like it it. thanks very much. check the big boards because we're up precisely 26 points. that's exactly the gain for the dow delivered by caterpillar. okay, so you take caterpillar out of the picture and what you've got is a dead flat market after a terrible performance last week. as we said, we've been saying all morning, google is at it again, buying up this time an artifical intelligence company, deep mind. this after buying boston dynamics, the company that makes that thing. the big dog. >> can you imagine one of those thing running around if it can think for itself. you want to get bit from that

harris. what do you think of investor carl icahn. he wants ebay to spin off paypal. that's your baby. what do you think about that? >> a long time ago that was my baby. i think it's clearly the wrong thing for ebay to spin off paypal. icahn, you know, he may achieve his goals which is to increase the stock price, he's got a position. it's really an exercise in self-interest. it's not an interest in shareholder rights or activism. so, in that sense it may have a positive spin, however, ultimately, pay pal absolutely belongs like this, with ebay. stuart: does paypal still dominate the on-line payments mechanisms of this world? >> absolutely. stuart: can you give me a market share?

why does that women have to be so mean, why can't she be happy for everybody? stuart: a story we will not let drop because it is a particularly nesting blog post. we will get back to that. but thank you. is this the new face of food stamps? for the first time in history working age people make up the majority of u.s. households that rely on food stamps. a few years ago the elderly were the main recipients. any reason why? liz: this is a symptom, the symptom is low-paying jobs replacing high-paying jobs. that is the reason behind income inequality, which the president will hammer home tomorrow night. stagnant wages, income inequality, the real reason why the use of food stamps is now stretching into the middle class and workers are using them to subsidize their income.
10:04 am
stuart: my problem is this, if working families are the major recipients of food stamps, that implies a cause to be made for raising wages by legislation, the minimum wage. charles: 2.6% of americans make minimum wage. the problem isn't minimum wage, the problem is being able to fulfill jobs that pay higher wages. americans are not prepared for those jobs. i made a list on my morning report, software developers, market researchers, financial analysts, physical therapist, web developers, logistics, database demonstrators, convention planners, interpreters and translators, so i jobs in this country i haven't even mentioned welders yet. the argument isn't about getting 2.7% of people making minimum wage up, that is volley. it takes us so far off course because at some point machines will make those. it will not work.

consider artificial intelligence. i think what you really want me to contemplate is whether google is getting too big and whether this is something trouble some to the regulators and the justice department who look for monopolists. is that what you are concerned about? stuart: yes. charles: you know the constitution has been under attack. people have said there is no way they could've taken into account machine guns when you come to the second amendment. there is no way they could take into account. where does artificial intelligence live? what kind of law would govern a machine that can think for itself. >> i don't know what kind of laws that govern a machine that can think for itself, but somebody will write the laws. eventually congress because there's nothing in this room that we are in now escapes congressional regulation.

it is hard for you to go anywhere in the u.s. and find something escaping commercial regulation. is it always good or usually based on the clinical dynamics of congress? usually based on the political dynamics. there is a principle of law that no monopolist monopolizes without trying to do so. you don't just suddenly realize all the sudden we control 80% of the market. and don't know what% google controls, i have very stiff, edition from facebook and others out there. stuart: microsoft had a large monopoly of the market. the government cut them down to size bid you cannot use the money degenerate to by other industries. fast-forward to today, google has 75, 80% share of the search engine market? nobody comes after them.

>> i don't know why. who asked the question someone who believes antitrust laws are unconstitutional. but i don't know why the justice department doesn't do to google we did to microsoft when it had a smaller share of the market. stuart: because eric schmidt is the man who reorganized election of president obama by organizing it. stuart: how big was google five years ago? stuart: they could be accused of playing up google, not going after google because google is useful to the president of the united states. >> precisely. the president who boasted i have a pen and a phone and a house, that he can bypass congress perhaps bypassing congressional intent by leaving google alone.
10:10 am
another way to look at it is the bigger google gets, the more products and that her services are out there for all of us. stuart: c don't have a problem with big monopolization. >> as long as it was acquired by the free market. it was acquired by corporate or the government favoring a particular industry or a particularl6)vn player, it hase condemned and profoundly unconstitutional. stuart: and you can't bai spellt out, can you? huge success. they have come due and the banks repaid every single penny they were given. >> and where did they get that money with which to repay it? from the fed, same governmentacu
10:11 am
know it. stuart: know, from the profit from the free money from the fed. >> exactly. >> he's right, philip. [laughter] stuart: can you get me out of this by telling me what is up with twitter? nicole: i will try. coming out over the weekend in an interview and said he recommends shor shorthair baskef momentum stocks. twitter is part of that down 4.7%. he also included tesla, netflix, facebook, 3d systems. said they might be good companies, but they are overpriced. stuart: now we know. they cause quite a stir, brought
10:12 am
the bank solvency to question. they are putting limits in the amounts customers can withdraw. setting a new policy to prevent money laundering. if you want to take a big chunk out of hsbc, you have to tell them why you are doing it. this put quite a scare into some people. liz: it really rattled the cage. it is britain's biggest bank. stuart: what is going on? liz: the two issues are separate. they are apologizing saying have a new policy put in place in november that basically questioned the size of it is a cash withdraw is above $8200 they would question it because remember hsbc was slapped with a record fine in december of 2012 for alleged lack of controls
10:13 am
leading to money laundering at the fed. they are apologizing saying the policy was in demented incorrectly. are not putting a lid on cash withdrawals. just limiting what they are for. if it is 10,000 or more. they say they have illiquid on the balance sheet. one tally i saw, 64 billion. but hsbc is not a zero-sum game. they can issue more equity, issue a stock. stuart: that is not a big negative story it might be looking at the headlines saturday morning. >> that is right. stuart: republicans have their alternative to obamacare. we will explain it all next. >> we have to pass the bill c can find out what is in it away from the fog of the controversy.
10:15 am
but with less ergy, moodiness, i had to do something. i saw mdoctor. a blood test showed it was low testosterone, not ag we talked about axiron the onlyndarm low t treaent that can restore t vels to normal in about two weeks in most men. axiron is not for use in women or anyone younger than 18 or men with prostate or breast ncer. women, especlly those who are or who may become pregnant, and children should avoidt where axirons applied as unexpected signs of puberty in children or changes in body hair or incased acne in women may occur. report these symptoms toour doctor. tell your doctorbout all medical conditions and medications. serious side effects could include increased sk of prostate cancer, worsening prostate symptoms, decreased sperm count, ankle, feet or body swelling, enlarged or painful breasts, problems breathing while sleeping
10:16 am
and blood clots in the legs. common side effects include skin redness or irritation where applied, increasered blood cell count, common side effects include skin redness headache, diarrhea, voming, and increase in psa. ask your doctor about axiron. stuart: the deadline to raise the debt limit next month, that is where the deadline hits and president obama says i'm not negotiating, i want a blank check to spend more, keep
10:17 am
raising the limit. republicans in the senate including marco rubio want to attach image with strings on this. one measure would be stopped any bailout health insurance under obamacare. charles, to you first. charles: almost all of this is symbolic, but it brings up a great point. the idea the republicans sort of standing on the sidelines praying this thing sinks and takes america with it proves it kind of fun way to protect the rest of the nation but is not going to happen. it is sort of a shame insurance companies helped to write most of this law and are protected before the average person watching. liz: doesn't wants to bring down the debt. the interest cost now approximates the size of the entire country of belgium. as a bill the taxpayer unfortunately has to pay.
10:18 am
stuart: it is a you can have the estimate but don't don't get insurance money bailout. that is athletically popular deal. liz: he is about restoring trust. with these kind of maneuvers. stuart: you're going to make us some money by revisiting buffalo wild wings. charles: we had it on last june, 20 huge move. we got back into the stock on this tip. what a spike in chicken prices. member mcdonald's got into the business for a little bit? now they're in the warehouse is. wild wings beat back the infidels so might get the
10:19 am
chicken prices down. sort of corny to do this with the super bowl by like the fact it has pulled back. it is kind of corny. it might be good though. stuart: senate republicans are putting out their alternative to obamacare coming up with details later on today. doing with pre-existing conditions, give tax credit to the poor. however republicans it will do away with the bureaucracy and rigor toward limitations that come with obamacare. more on this for us. >> there is no when god's green earth this republican plan is actually going to pass this year, next year, cap see it happening. but you know the details of the republican plan. you know about obamacare. which is the better deal?
10:20 am
>> good morning, stuart. i think the republican deal will be the good deal because when obamacare was written, they basically took the labels of things republicans had been talking about for years, protecting consumers with insurance reform, helping people with subsidies in the lower income category, for ability of health insurance, the number of different things they would do with medicare and medicaid, but they put completely different policies underneath that in obamacare. republicans say this is what we need, making sure there's no lifetime tax, that the coverage is portable he wants to take it from job to job. subsidies for people who work for small businesses, and not just people who work for big business, incentives for them to be more cost-conscious in their health coverage purchases. these are the things that could work because they work and the rest of our economy.
10:21 am
what obamacare did was put mountains of rules and regulations and mandates to try to make the market do every single thing they wanted to do down to every.. it is not working. stuart: of the insurance industry gets into trouble, the taxpayer will put money into the insurers, bail them out. he wants to repeal that. the other thing getting that are rather slim, but if he did get it, if we repealed the bailout for insurance companies, with that collapse obamacare? >> absolutely not because the subsidies are there any way, stuart. on that would happen if the subsidies went away was the policies would become more expensive. taxpayers are on the hook for a percentage and sometimes a very large percentage of those subsidies anyway. you're just moving the subsidy
10:22 am
from one ledger to another. it is not going to change. >stuart:'s will end up paying te matter what. if the premiums rise, we pay, that is it. >> that is right. they should focus on things the american people really get about individual mandate and the huge cost this is bringing in job loss around the countrydrñ and f this employer mandate is reinstituted for next year, that means employers will have to start looking back this spring putting people on part-time work. talking about jobs, deal with the employer mandate and the individual mandate, not this stuart: we appreciate yourit. expertise. hundred ick i royal caribbean
