tv After the Bell FOX Business June 2, 2014 4:00pm-5:01pm EDT
4:00 pm
david: coal stocks were not happy about epa rules, right? [closing bell ringing] >> efa rules. stuff day for coal stocks. david: nicole petallides. liz: put it in the record books as the numbers settle. definitely looks like a record for the dow jones industrials and transports. with a point higher than where we closed on friday which of course was a record. david: again a split decision. nasdaq of course, apple ended up the day pretty much flat. it did go down initially after listening to tim cook talk about what investors didn't particularly like. but again, the whole tech sector, generally speaking was basically flat. russell 2000 though, a significant move to the downside, about half of a percentage point. we've got a busy hour, including investor jim rogers. you want to hear what he has to say coming up. "after the bell" starts right now. liz: i know nobody cares but the
4:01 pm
volatility -- david: very low. very low. but we have exciting people coming up. liz: it did get higher by 2% but still below 12, not a big deal. but there was much more action elsewhere. lee munson, investment and chief investment officer where he des deep value in the market. jim loll, advisor investment changment chief. he said now is not to sit on the sidelines so get off your you know what. scott shell lady, from cme. we can begin with you. action was interesting again with the records. almost like a game of inches. >> well it's a game of inches and with the revisions we saw from the government today as well, kind of had everybody on their back feet or on their heels. i think ultimately this is the case, we have inflation data coming out from europe tomorrow. that may or may not give draghi more powder for his gun on thursday.
4:02 pm
obviously non-farm payrolls. you know what? everybody is pricing everything because the central banks are involved like there is no risk, there is no peripheral risk, there is no credit risk. we don't have any risk out there. all-time record highs. something ha to give. interesting to see what draghi does on thursday. the market behind me is waiting for draghi, not non-farm. we'll see if we get better jobs out of non-farm. the inflation data tomorrow we'll see if we give draghi, give us a hint what draghi will want to do on thursday. david: jim lowell, we have jim rogers talking about europe. in addition to that, jim lowell, only guy can wear a bow tie as well as you can. you and jim rogers. i bet he is wearing a bow tie as well. let me ask you what you tell those people who are afraid to get in at this point? there are still a lot of retailers out on the sidelines waiting for a moment to get in. they're afraid to get in what they consider to be the top. what do you tell them? >> it's a fool's gambit to wait
4:03 pm
for a perfect day. reality on route to the perfect day when the market delivers its best gains. you never want to be out of the market. you want to remain very smartly diversified across asset classes. a clear case in point where the bond market has basically written off by everyone but leading the market with total return with obviously much lower risk profile. the reality as long as the u.s. consumer continues to spend and spend well, and as long as the employment trend, while anemic is still on the mend, i think this recovery has a long way to go. liz: lee, you were talking about deep value. define that and tell investors where to find it. >> well, i think when we're talking to build off what jim was saying right there, you have to go to other countries on different type of business cycles. everybody knows america, we're fully in the cycle. we probably got another year or two to go. we could argue that all day. i like going places if you have to commit money and you're a scaredy-cat look at someplace
4:04 pm
like emerging markets which have done horribly for the past three, four, five years. even though it is riskier there you get a better return and valuation compared to america is rock bottom. the same thing we're seeing in europe. just remember, every country, every area has a business cycle. as we're getting long in the tooth on our business cycle here, look to the european central bank and draghi. that's why we're talking draghi, draghi, draghi all week. as the fed thinks about tightening they will think about loosening in europe. there is money to be made out there. david: hold on a second. scott shellady, those ism numbers must have given you twice fits. they came out with three revisions. what did you make of that and how did it affect the markets? >> you can see on a chart what it did to the markets initially. everything looked a lot worse than it was. revisions came out and made things look better. ultimately i say this, this economy is not firing on all cylinders. the 10-year is telling us that.
4:05 pm
i think it goes to 2.2. i read more research today said it was going to 2.0. i would love for things to get better sooner rather than later but i just don't see the jobs and i'm worried about housing to really support that going forward. liz: somebody wanted to jump in. >> 10-year is that low, the 10-year is lower because there is huge demand for risk-free assets. i know the economy isn't great as you want to see in the pit, scott, there is such demand for risk-free assets, demand is causing rates to go lower and economy is sluggish. liz: but, jim lowell is going in different direction. looks like with your picks you like to see a little bit gutsier moves from investors such as international growth? >> yeah. one way you can go overseas and look for those out of cycle stocks by staying right at home in the largest blue chip battleship balance sheet names we have. they derive 70% of their revenue from the overseas markets.
4:06 pm
megacap stocks are reasonably valued in the precisely because they have not been able to participate in the upside in the small and mid-cap u.s. sectors. go overseas reasonably west a lot less risk by trading home and trading up. david: lee, you can still find stocks that haven't gone out of sight over the past year and i love your pick ofecause i was looking at a one-year chart of costco around it's way off its highs. is not down to its lows by any means but it is kind of meandered up and down yet it is a solid company, right? >> it is. i think that investors need to look at that. if you're not, i don't love picking just a full thing of stocks but if you want to have a stock that is poster-child for where value is, i think costco represents that. think about if you take an idea like costco, it is high quality, has a market, and think, what if other countries and other places in the world where you're still seeing that effect? if you look at costco in america, that's what you can see
4:07 pm
in some emerging economies and that's what you see in europe. i would say if you go in that international range as well, i disagree i think you should look at smaller things and things that are deeper value. david: which is a terrific -- >> stodgier stocks, stay in the u.s. david: which is terrific introduction and tease for jim rogers who says exactly what you just said and he has specific picks in that arena. we'll get to that later in the show. liz: in fact he turned bullish on an area he was bullish on for 46 years. you have to stay tuned and look for that. lee, thank you. jim lowell, good to see you. scott, we'll come back after the break for s&p futures close. thanks so much. thanks, twice. david: epa as you probably know asking power plants to cut carbon emissions by 30% by 2030. debate on economic impact kicking high gear. white house says there will be billions in benefits but of course others predict billions in costs, not surprisingly from the energy field. in a fox business exclusive we'll talk with senate minority leader mitch mcconnell.
4:08 pm
he is from a state that cares a lot about energy usage about the republicans response to the new plan. liz: famed investors, we were saying jimmy rogers has been bearish on one particular country for 46 years. so when he says guess what, i'm changing my tune and now buying bullishly, where in the world is that? jim rogers joins us in a fox business exclusive to tell us where. david: also bfw heating up the green car wars with its new i 8. this is a hybrid. not exclusively electric but goes pretty far in that direction. analysts are calling it a big threat to the high-end tesla. we take you from zero to 60 in 4.5 seconds as we test drove the new car and we are going to be talking to the person that did that. we want to hear from you. reports say regulators are pursuing an insider trading probe involving carl icahn, phil mickelson, yes, the golfer and billy walters as the guy in the

4:12 pm
liz: you want to know what really soared today? shares of semiconductor giant broadcom of the biggest gainer on the s&p 500 is you know hop knows all why that happened? it is her, nicole pet p. what is going on. >> dave and liz, you're too kind. i've been watching broadcom up all day up 9% on the day. the number one performer in the s&p 500, up almost three bucks. that is because basically it is selling off its part of its chip business. specifically unprofitable according to the analyst. they have lost steam against some competitors such as qualcomm and others including media tech and marvell. that left them in a really tough spot according to fbr capital. they are looking at options to sell or wind down this business. this ultimately would likely save them about $700 million per year. a mice big move up for broadcom today. back to you. liz: nicole, thank you. david: well, the s&p futures are
4:13 pm
closing in just about a minute. let's head back to scott shellady at the cme. scott, how is it ending today? >> we'll end obviously on a high he note. take a look at this. we have investors not pricing risk in properly i don't believe. we'll have to find a place to put cash. i think that will be in the stock market. when you've got say a third of s&p 500 stocks yielding more than 3%, that makes it look like a better deal than the 10-year at 2.5. the 10-year at 2.5 sometimes now looked at as hedge against a falling stock market. maybe that is why we see some of the rates break as the treasury market rallies, because buyers are hedging their long equity risk. perversely enough, i said this before we'll see the stock market slowly levitate higher as well as the bond market levitating higher until we get a better feel what the economy is doing. we have perverse market where stocks rallying and bonds rallying the first time.
4:14 pm
liz: scott, i didn't want to rub salt in the wound but i had to bring this. >> here we go. that's not nice. >> the kings beat, well, are they, your blawkhawks. you are a black hawk finance. >> they are my blawkhawks fan. the network needs l.a.-new york rivalry. david: rigged? >> we knew it was going to happen anyway. liz: rigged? let me say something, if -- david: exactly what liz would be saying, scott. liz: i think it is almost rigged. oh, my god. calling -- >> there will be a brand new book out now. david: scott, now liz and i throughout the series, so this is going to be war here. liz: scott, thank you. david: this will be war. >> no problem, see ya. liz: we need to get to breaking news about the epa proposing new rules to regulate carbon emissions asking car coal plants to cut emissions by 30% by the year 2030. david: the plan is already causing, we have the person at
4:15 pm
the center storm. rich edson in a fox business exclusive interview with senate minority leader mitch mcconnell. >> dave and liz, we heard from the p.e.t. and epa administrator. we'll ask from mitch mcconnell definitely a different perspective from the administration. some thought perhaps a reduction of 42% from 2005 by 2030. they went with 30%. that does provide any relief from what you thought was coming >> no. 40% of the america's electricity comes from coal-fired generation. in my state are 90%. if you're concerned about carbon emissions, united states emits about 6% of the world's carbon emissions. nobody else is doing what we're going to do. the chinese and indians are not. this will have no effect. it is a fool's errand. but in the real effect of it, is going to be lost jobs. we have already lost 7,000 coal mining jobs in my state, seven out of 18,000. we've got a depression in
4:16 pm
eastern kentucky. that is before we get to this rule beginning to be implemented. we've got 15 coal-fired generation plants in my state. the way we remain competitive is with our low utility rates. we've been among the top five in low utility rates in the country. that is going to be lost because rates are going up for everyone. this is a huge, huge, negative for kentucky and for other states. the limbo here in the senate the majority leader who says coal makes you sick, won't let us vote on things. i will introduce a bill later this week to try to push back against this. the my guess the majority leader won't allow the vote. >> what would your bill have and what specifically would it require? >> we would require the regulation to meet some standards. in other words, the congressional budget office would have to certify that it would be no job loss, no increase in utility rates and no
4:17 pm
adverse impact on growth. you know, we had negative growth in the first quarter here. growth is a problem. joblessness is a problem. thieves people are trying to create a depression in my state. it will not have any impact on global carbon emissions. >> given the environment here in the u.s. senate is there any chance of anything like that passing at least this year? >> probably not because the majority supports the president's defend daft the majority leader supports the president's again today. he made it very difficult for us to get votes on anything. i can't imagine he will allow a vote on this. which is another good reason to make me the majority leader in january so that we can actually vote and participate. there are a number of democrats by the way who would support legislation like mine if they were given an opportunity to vote on night one such democrat is your opponent alison lundergan grimes saying president obama's new epa rule that washington isn't working for kentucky. she says she will fiercely opposed the president's attack on kentucky's coal industry if she were to become senator. ask you to respond to that.
4:18 pm
>> i'm sure she would. she would vote to make harry reid majority leader of the senate. as long as he is majority leader of the senate he will protect the president because he agrees with the president. because he said coal makes you sick, end quote. so i'm sure she would be pro-coal. she would be ineffectively pro-coal and would vote for, you know, a majority leader and a mt. who are completely in the other direction. >> we have a year to finalize this at the federal level. an additional year. it goes into effect 2016. do you see any chance that this rule can be amended, changed, stopped? >> i think it depend how much pushback there is. if a lot of negative comments, if a lot of democrats who don't like this speak up, given the year commentary the senate may change before next year we might have a real chance to stop this. >> does it surprise you given the president's reluctance to rule on keystone pipeline, pushing that decision back
4:19 pm
beyond the 2014 election, midterm election, that he has gone out and put this out so close to election season? >> i think it is entirely consistent with not approving the keystone pipeline. you know, they knew this required legislation by the way. they tried to pass it back in 2010 when they had a huge majority in the senate and a huge majority in the house. they knew it required legislation. >> will you challenge this in court? >> it is bound to be challenged in court. >> would you challenge it? >> i don't know whether i would have standing to. there are plenty of people that are going to challenge this why did they think it took legislation in 2010 and doesn't take legislation now? this is the kind of executive branch overreaction to everything and the belief that they can do anything by themselves. we've seen that on obamacare where they just pick out parts of it and say, never mind. >> senate minority leader mitch mcconnell. thanks for joining us. >> thank you.

4:25 pm
new i8 and despite the fact, lauren you're not crazy about electric cars, you love this car? >> if you told me to buy a plug-in hybrid i would buy pretty much but anything this car is impressive. david: it looks so cool. does it drive as well as it looks? it looks so sporty. >> it goes as fast as it looks. it looks like a rocket ship. i had the best time driving all over l.a. the looks we were getting. people were stopping us. david: flip up car door. >> starting with that it is so sexy i have to say. david: bmw is known as very tight driving car. by that the mean the steering wheel is so tight you always have to be on it. you can't let it go. is it a little looser than that? >> it is a little looser. it is not a race car. you could put it up on the track. i tyke it up mulholland drive. i had it all day and rode down row dade yo drive and watched

heads turns and this is head-turner. david: it can run off both the brake and motor itself, the gas motor. >> right. there is an electric motor in the front. good up to 22 miles, up to 75 miles an hour. in the back you have a three cylinder engine that is turbo charged. when you merge the two together you get amazing power. that is sport mode. but there is comfort mode. david: by the way there is three modes. there is the sport mode, comfort mode and ecomode. >> i drove it in all three. when you're cruising around or sitting on highway the ecois great. when you out on the track and go to mulholland or have fun this is a dream. david: you spoke to the tech buy but he is does pr for the company. he told you, let's play that clip and get to you respond. >> okay. >> the i-series cars are really important for us at bmw and we think broadly speaking they're important because we see a future where a new approach to performance is going to be really important. the idea that we can have
4:27 pm
performance but in a very sustainable and environmentally-responsible way. bmw i8 looks the way it does picking up certain bmw styling queues. certain styling cues to the bmw-i. it is not only meant to be arrow dynamic with a drag coefficient of .26, but the shape of it when you look at the front or even from the back, it is very reminiscent of a falling drop of water. for customers, looking to own an i8, with starting price of $135,000,700. you first of all have to be able to afford that but beyond that obviously people will be attracted to the way the car looks, naturally. and people will be attracted to the performance of the car, so people who appreciate high performance sportscaster but we think it is also people who are interested in technology and like the idea that they can drive a car like this, getting fuel efficiency that is on par with a subcompact. so they don't have to feel
4:28 pm
guilty about driving a high performance car and having all that performance because they're actually being quite socially responsible at the same time. the competition for the bmw i8, that is really hard to clarify because the car is so unique. so you say, well what is the direct competitor? really nothing quite like it out there, wow. that is david, by the way. it sounded like you really took that baby out, you went pedal to the metal at one point? >> absolutely. we had the pedal to the metal and the car went up and went. david: we'll not say exactly how fast. there may be a grandfather arrest clause. bottom line, does this thing make money. >> yes it does. they have sold out all the 2014s. most of the 2015s are sold. there is a waiting list. if you want one and afford one, get your name on the list now. david: now is lauren fix a convert to the electric car because of this? >> if you forced me to buy one i would but the truth is i more into the collectible cars. if you told me buy a ford gt which is $300,000 i would buy that instead to figure out how
4:29 pm
finance it. david: the key though, tesla in order to fulfill the dream it has to sell the vast middle. great on high-end. bmw will sell out on high-end. what about the middle ground? >> yes. david: what about electric cars between 30 and 50,000? >> the bmw i-3 are for sale. bmw have great success. they are selling. i see them all over the country. bmw will have great success with the i line. this is aluminum keeping cars light and meeting c.a.f.e. standards and giving people what they want. david: maybe i can convince my wife i have a midlife crisis, i have to buy it. >> you should. i'll see what i can do. >> lauren fix, convert to the electric car maybe in this case. >> thank you. liz: whoever comes out in a suv first. i'm having a mid mom crisis. legendary investor jimmy rogers investing in a nation with what he calls one of the most hated stock markets in the world. which country is that? how long will he stay the course? jim joins us in a fox business
