"varney and company" is about to begin. big-name stocks, we are watching them and look at them go. they don't like what we hear from tesla. disappointing outlook. tesla using the amazon model not declaring the profits, plowing money back into the business. little more on that from charles in a moment, tesla down 7%. stronger bookingss giving price line's profit and nice boost. predicted a disappointing outlook balances everything out. so priceline stays in the $1,000

per share club virtually unchanged. amazon going to add 15 cities to its sunday delivery service. that is not a bounce back. that is the $93 stock, not about that, up 400 plus a couple months ago. watch out web shoppers, fedex will start charging more by package size charging more that is. does it have pricing power? not sure. that x is down $1.80. a new report from the government accountability office reveals an astonishing number. only one government job was lost due to those sequester cuts. just one. do you remember all the doomsday predictions warning that thousands of people would lose their jobs as a result of the sequester. listen to this. >> you are estimating as a consequence of the sequester we could see growth cut by over 1/2%. it will cost 750,000 jobs at a

time when we should be growing jobs more quickly. somebody is going to be vacuuming and cleaning those floors and throwing out the garbage, they're going to have less pay. the janitors, the security guards. they just got a pay cut and they have to figure out how to manage that. >> if sequestration takes place that is going to be a great setback. we don't need to be it will cause the job loss of 170 million jobs that could be lost. stuart: well, it did not quite work out that way. the senator from oklahoma wants answers. why did they repeatedly make these warnings about tens of thousands of job losses? fox news contributor monica

crowley is here. >> scare tactics. remember during the lyndon johnson years with the president was repeatedly lying to the american people about vietnam. the credibility gap. this president has repeatedly lied to the american people. when he makes a statement, and i choose -- stuart: he cannot say that the president lied when he forecast the job losses because of the sector. >> we now know that sequestration only lead to the loss of one government job geared they wanted the american people to think that the sky would fall. that the government would not be there for them. we now know the exact opposite.

they knew what the truth would be, stuart. they still try to go out and scare us all. >> they had to scare everybody. it is a one page playbook. it was really a small amount of our budget. stuart: i have to get to tesla for a second, charles. they keep putting money back. it is not apparently working for tesla right now. charles, what you make of this? they have a disappointing forecast. the stock was down 20.

charles: companies are not bringing money to the bottom line. they are building for the future. they are going through growing pains. i would not panic unless the stock went under $170 a share. stuart: moving from cars to zombies. the walking dead. did not make as much as wall street wanted. it is an expectation game. i think they have been downgraded. >> the stock is to the downside. it is down nearly 10%.

they have seen revenue surge sevenfold to $76 million. you mentioned walking dead. that is about a police officer that wakes up from a coma and he is now in zombie land. breaking bad is over. they are working on their new show. today, you are seeing the stock down about 10%. i have not seen any of those shares. stuart: a police officer goes into a coma, wakes up in the land of the walking dead, zombie land. the company roles in the money. isn't that a little unusual? >> if only you thought about the concept.

of course, it was a comic book. stuart: i have been in the land of the walking dead, but not recently. the house holding lois lerner and contempt. all republicans voted yes along with six democrats. monica, what does that tell you? you are in contempt and you are in the irs. >> either a dwindling number of actual honest democrats in the party or they are invulnerable districts. they are afraid to lose their seats. even if they voted strictly for political reasons. this is the most dangerous

scandal in u.s. history. to go against the regular american, that means that this government is really out of control. charles: they are getting there. stuart: a hollywood fundraiser with the president.

president obama has an agenda. they are so out of it. something new comes from both of them that shocks the heck out of me. stuart: you have 10 seconds. >> it is all politics all the time. where did he go? a fundraiser in las vegas. >> president obama is bowing to spend big money and enact legislation to fight climate change. one of the president's first targets of regulation is called. this could really hurt states like nebraska.

72% of its electricity from coal. nebraska senator says and maybe could be in our future. she said regulation of the coal industry could lead to the worst energy crisis. pretty bold statement, senator. what you are doing to call could take us right back to the energy crisis of the 1970s. >> i always try to look at april paul -- i always try to look at a proposal. it will hurt nebraskans. it will have an affect all over this country. we have nebraska paycheck exceeding $1 billion. these are good jobs.

people will be affect it by it. a lot of folks do not know that we are a public knowledge state. that will hit us twice. >> you are saying that it will raise the cost of a like a city. it will not wipe out the coal industry. it will simply raise the cost. we are not going to see any new plans because of these extreme regulations that are out there. that is not helpful. coal is a great resource for this country. stuart: can you do anything about it? the president is going to the regulatory system. we will regulate like this.

there is not much you can do. >> that is not fair to the american people. the american people expect congress to act. we have an energy bill or we did have an energy bill that offered the chance. we really have not had the chance to have a debate on what the energy policy in this country should be. we have amendments on both sides. again, we faced terry reid saying no amendments, no discussions, take it or leave it, load it up or down. that is not the way the united state senate is supposed to blow. we will see loss of jobs. we will see higher cost. they do not have a voice in it. we have an administration who loses. in this case, a lot of them will

be nebraskans. stuart: thank you for being here, senator. we appreciate it. >> thanks. stuart: youtube flooded with go pro. can other companies give go pro a run for their money? ♪

this particular group is concerned, it helps to have a family. if you are single with a kid, it is significantly low. when people have obligations outside themselves, they find a way to make it work. stuart: what do you think of that statistic? charles: it is a low. it is a combination. the ones who don't have obligations, the one who don't have kids, they can chill out with mom in the basement. they have options not to go. it is still a relatively high rate. we see a trend in this country where you don't have to work. there are so many options not to work. it will cost people to work because you lose your tax credits. it is a farce.

we are encouraging people not to work in this country. it does not help if you don't have a degree. it makes it harder. stuart: a tough battle with go pro. it is named contour. forced into bankruptcy. they hope to make a comeback. joining us now is contour ceo. you have the camera with you. >> i sure do. stuart: hold it up. you are selling this camera on the basis that it is small. >> this is a bullet design. we feel that consumers would not rather have something sleek and aerodynamic than they would a big brick. stuart: that is kind of talking the competition down, isn't it. a lot of free commercials on youtube by putting those cameras

crossing of items on the to do list on the weekend by getting the amazon products delivered on the doorstep on sunday and guess who's doing the delivering? this is the good news, the u.s. ps. the workers at the united states postal service are working more, bringing in money for them. stuart: related story, fedex going to start charging by the size of the package. is that good news bad news? >> size matters. interesting. i got off the phone with fedex and they will have dimensional pricing little weird formulas they use to figure out how much an item costs. they will use it on packages that are less than three cubic feet so you order toilet paper, online. you get it and it comes in a big box but the box is so light it is filled with air. the big box even though doesn't weigh much takes a room on the fedex truck so now fedex wants to make money from that so this will apply to a third of the items in shifts starting in

january with fedex ground and the increase is going to be between 30% and 40%. stuart: doesn't starting jan.? >> january. good retailer. away shipping prices because when i see a high shipping costs i don't order something online. i go to the store. increases the price of the item to keep shipping the same. stuart: the shipping price goes up 30% to 40% in january, depending on the size of the package itself. that is negative for fedex. stock is down. a lot of internet stocks have taken a beating this week. look at where some of the mark trading, twitter, one of the bigger names, was down, not backed up by much, fire i, work day, charles, these stocks took it on the chin. that is not much of the bounce back even as the overall other industrial companies are

much twitter stock out there so the question is will twitter do a reverse split to bring back and get rid of stocks like citigroup did. stuart: he bought it. charles: if kissel death, they don't have to do that. citigroup had to put on the facades of institutions would hold stock, so when their stock was going to $3 or $4 they had to reverse so it would look like a $10 stock even though splits reverse or forward don't -- stuart: it is a bifurcated market. charles: it is amazing. people call for a crash and got it but it hasn't been the entire market. stuart: the ceo of the world's largest fast-food chain is not concerned with the federal minimum wage increase. subway's ceo said a wage increase would affect him and his rivals equally and not put any particular company added disadvantage. did we just say subway is the

world's largest fast-food chain? liz: one of the biggest. as the global minimum wage protests heat up again, we have seen time and again spring, summer, these protests take hold against the chain again and again and again. those workers could get displaced, panera bread, moved to let customers order via tablets of fire those workers, you save money if you raise minimum wage, this is a danger zone. they could lose their jobs because -- franchises are run by local mom-and-pop, not the big corporations with boot on the ground with the minimum wage to take hold. is the mom-and-pops running them. that is the debate too. charles: subway is the largest by franchise. stuart: largest number of franchises. in terms of gross revenue is mcdonald's heads down. does minimum wage in the united

states apply to mcdonald's? i don't know. charles: restaurants are the main focus but domestically these restaurants have extraordinarily small margins. talk about killing businesses and franchise owners, they save their money and buy themselves a mcdonald's or subway franchise and you then you hit them with this is disastrous. liz: a bad economy is creating too many mixed jobs with families trying to raise children on low-wage jobs. we need better economic growth so you don't have families doing that. stuart: she has got it right. thank you very much. we have all seen the commercials, this thing is called the gazelle. since it hit the market has sold $1 billion worth, what you are seeing on screen. we have the man behind it after the break. watch this. >> whole body calorie burning, whole body muscle toneing and

stuart: whole foods and zoo lily down today, that is not bounceback by any means. wicked sherman, face and voice of the super bowl champs seattle seahawks, one of the best players in that position, a really big payday, we will tell you how much in the next hour but first more businesses closed then opened in four years after the great recession, the early obama years, john stossel you to discuss that. which would you rather lose? your wallet or your cellphone? here's my take. you don't want to lose either, i got that but if it had to be one or the other which would it be? in this day and age that is a valid question. your money and your id in your wallet, got that, but you could make the case that your life is on your phone, pictures, contact, intimate messages, kind of a tossup between the two.

i raise the question because a survey of people who reported their phones stolen revealed that 68% would take some physical risks in real life. let's be clear, stolen phones were left behind a bar or restaurant, not like they were ripped off on the street by a flood with a gun but 68% would take risks to retrieve their phone, we have an emotional attachment. we want it back. i can't think of another product that has the must keep mentality. let me answer my own question. i would rather lose my phone. my wallet has my money in it but what about you? i would like you to tell us which would you lose by preference? i close with a solution. why not make phone manufacturers include a kill switch? if you lost your phone or if it

was ripped off in the street you can activate your switch and the phone goes totally dead, can't use it or get the info out of it. i am sure it could be done technically so why not do it? it would put thieves out of business and give peace of mind to those who keep very private things in their phone. a kill switch could be reversed, when you got it back all would be well. which would you rather lose? wallace or phone? we've never sold a house before.

they got a pay cut. and they got to figure out how to manage that. that is real. >> sequestration takes place, that will be a great set back. we don't need to be having something like sequestration that is going to cause these job losses, 170 million jobs that could be lost. >> we put that down to some of the tongue, it is not 170 million jobs, it wasn't hundreds of thousands, it was one. liz: one job, government job, the president said hundreds of thousands of jobs could be lost, middle-class people will be heard, harry reid the summer before sequestration said 1.6 million jobs could be lost. we are talking one government job, 7 out of 23 government agencies furloughed and those workers were rehired back. senator tom coburn is saying this is outrageous.

clearly what happened was the sequestration was coming down, the president, the administration, senators like harry reid height it, exaggerated, overstated what the job losses would be and scared the devil out of the american people. he is saying it was a cabinet level multi agent effort at the cabinet level to scare the american people and what we are seeing now is senator tom coburn saying i wanted explanation. he sent a letter to the omb director, give us an explanation why you scared the american people saying sequestration would hurt jobs when it clearly did not. stuart: we brought you the story from brookings, a leftist organization, as they say the rate of new business formation has been cut in half in the past 30 years. in more recent years more businesses are closing up that are being opened. john stossel is here.

this week's show is all about risk and business. why is stopping growth of business formation? what is going on? john: it is tougher to do because of regulation. 1,000 pages more every week so reluctant to start something but part of the creation being passed by businesses failing is just part of america. this is a place where it is okay to fail and try something else. stuart: do you think america has shifted? we are frightened of failure and less entrepreneurial because of it and it has american financial culture has it shifted? john: i am not in a position to judge or even willing to trucks to the brookings study. i would like to read more about that. one good point is america compared to your whole country allows failure and thomas edison had a thousand patents that failed before it got a light bulb. dr. seuss submitted his books to

23 publishers and turned down. in america is okay to fail and try again. i started facebook. i really did. here it is. in my all male college, we published this book of all the girls's pictures. i thought this was a genius idea. we do know what they looked like. unfortunately, the internet didn't exist yet. >> why do you still be longer? john: i had to buy it on ebay. stuart: an all male school? you -- stuart: when you got a list of all the females and traveled to these schools. >> why wasn't it a success? john: it should have been a success. it would have been facebook. t you try again? >> i tried with television news.

and to the girls are. stuart: that is what your show is about. john: a entrepreneurship but kohl's successes. stuart: you are not prepared to make the judgment, in decline in america because we offer this, we have this safety net. we don't like failure, we got this thing to fall back on so why take the risk in the first place? john: that may be a trend but i am wrong about so many assumptions i assumed when businesses are being started by young people that turns out it is our age group that starts the most businesses. all kinds of weird day. stuart: all the people we have on this show with bright good ideas -- john: good ideas are from young people. i'm talking number of ideas. stuart: have you had a good idea recently at your advanced age?

buy and nightclub. stuart: what is your advice. give money to you and let you manage it. >> absolutely. 8% of bancroft, the average career in the nfl is only three years. my advice when i first started sports, people told me to buy a home and i did that, you cannot always pump gas and pay the bill but you need to some type of long-term solvency. stuart: well said. next up tesla, what are they saying on the floor? that stock is down. nicole: i was thinking of bentley and a beautiful girl to take out. that would not be a good idea. go to the home. tesla to the downside because they gave an outlook that was weaker, disappointed investors today, fell 7.5%. the deal they talked about so often, don't forget to asthma has been a highflier, it is up
