tv   After the Bell  FOX Business  October 24, 2014 4:00pm-5:01pm EDT

4:00 pm
this week. fundamentals. >> there goes the bell, ladies and gentlemen, with all the worry, for a while for the past couple of weeks, every time we had some kind of worry whether it was ebola or isis or whatever it was, the market would react. today, it ain't happening. it looks like the market is shaking some of its fear factor out of the final stats as the day comes to a close. healthy in the green. russell 2000 still in the green just up a fraction of a percent. all the others really up close to 1 percent. it is a good day for the markets. we got patrick burn from overstock coming up to tell us why his stock is up 9 percent when amazon is down 8 percent. a busy hour "after the bell" starts. right now. >> let's get right to
4:01 pm
today's market. brian boil is telling us where he's finding little pockets in this market. time to buy low. beta stocks. we got mark joining us. mark, why didn't ebola fears turn the market negative. a lot of people thought it would happen, it didn't. >> i think we're starting to shake off that unknown panic that comes with ebola. what we're finding out, it really does take close personal contact, really inciden intimate contact with the patient. who is getting it, doctors, nurses, people who treat these people, nobody from the airplane that carried that nurse caught it. nobody on the cruise ship caught it. i think we'll find this doctor in new york, nobody at the bowling ally will have caught it either. i think the fact that we're up 13 points in the s&p shows that, you
4:02 pm
know, unless something really changes on this ebola outbreak that story has passed in its ability to affect the financial market. >> for today at least. that's a good thing. let's talk about the volatility we've had. so much volatility in the markets this week. frankly you've got the fed meeting coming up next week and that could be a game changer about that. how concerned are you about that meeting? >> we definitely think some of the volatility we've seen is in anticipation of what fed will do next week. we believe the volatility that we've seen while elevated we expect it to stay around and expect to see more volatility next week with the fed's decision coming up. >> what are they in your mind? >> i don't think any of the worries that caused us to go down 10 percent ten weeks ago are any different now. global economic growth is the biggest one. if it wasn't for the words of mr. bowlard i
4:03 pm
think we would still be in that situation. so the fed bailed us out again. >> i was looking at the numbers as we were coming in the close, and this kind of -- s&p best week we've had since january of 2013 and the nasdaq best week since december of 2011. does that surprise you at all? >> yeah, it's really been an absolute crazy couple of weeks. one of the indicators i watched called average true range. what it measures how much the s&p 500 is moving not just from close to close, but intraday. that range has been almost 29 points a day. close to 2 percent. that is massive volatility. the vix which is around 16 would basically need to be double to handle that kind of movement. there is a lot of real volatility in the market. and, you know, i'm really kind of surprised the way we bounced back.
4:04 pm
we're right here at the hundred day moving average. right around 1961. the 50 day 1966. those are two major technical lines that traders watch. i'll be interested how we move on monday. do we break up higher? it may be clear sailing up until 2000 until the federal reserve comes out. if the federal reserve comes out and does what i think they will do, which is hint they won't move rates until 2016 or later, we could keep going. david: the real question -- the rates issue is kind of an old issue. the main issue is whether or not they will go into another qe whether they'll stop the tapering and continue to buy or perhaps announce even more buying than they were planning to. >> we think they'll hold off on another round of qe now.
4:05 pm
certainly they want to make that available to them down the road. that's something they want to leave on the table. we think for now, no other round of qe is going to come out next week. charles: >> i was looking at some of the stocks you like. you like raceon. and it's a total defense play. is this isis -- i mean, is this fengsz with tensions wih russia and the ukraine? >> it certainly helps. using this volatility to pick up a name like raceon who is very reasonable valued. it's going to raise that yield. it has tons of free cash flow. keeping in my mind what's going on in the world. there's a reacceleration of earnings next we're. i think the most interesting thing on the conference call that the nation of poland has a 2 billion-dollar patriot missile contract out there that's up for bid which raceon is bidding
4:06 pm
on. they're moving up the award of that to the fourth quarter from next we're, and obviously that's because of what's going on in the ukraine. so yeah, when you're a company that does patriots and tomahawks that's definitely helping. you're not paying a lot for a great yield on a great company. >> i thought oil bottomed out. >> i think it's really formed a bottom. david: hold on a second. it was down a full percentage point. it has come down even more today. i thought it was bottomed out yesterday, but it hasn't happened. >> i think that 80 is going to be a hard hard level for oil to break. it's bounced off a couple of times. there's just a ton of resistance there so, unless some sort of major glut, the saudis announce they will put out more oil and they're working to push the
4:07 pm
price down, i don't think oil is going a lot lower. which makes the oil service companies start to look interesting and attractive here. >> if oil goes lower, one of your picks is the energy sector. that is a rush story if oil continues to go down. >> absolutely. in the near term. either opportunities are being created right now for those who have an outlook the next couple of years. we think we're close to the bottom. over the couple of next years we think there are a number of opportunities being served right now to investors. david: what's wrong with investing in tech right now. >> we think expectations have gotten a head of themselves. amazon was down significantly. the bar has been set really high for the technology sector because of the growth we've seen. we like the sector fundamentally. when you look at prices, we think a lot is priced
4:08 pm
in. we think there are better opportunities out there. >> thank you very much. mark spellman, mark intassian. s&p closing in a few moments. thank you. >> the doctor diagnosed with ebola in new york city passed right through airport screening on the 17th of this month. will this case push the government to finally close our borders from ebola countries in africa? >> travel bans there's your word. amazon continues to bleed money sending shares to a 52 week low. overstock.com is soaring. take a look at that. more than 9 percent. they're massively outpurchasing the markets. and guess what, the ceo is here exclusively. >> and we're going to tell you the best day and the best time to buy your airline tickets to secure the best deal. lot of holiday traffic coming up. you want to save your money, we got the
4:09 pm
answers straight ahead.
4:10 pm
4:11 pm
>> all right. take a look at this stock. soda stream. it's soaring closing 16 percent. let's go back to nicole petallides. >> very interesting. this will be my son's dream come true to be able to make pepsi at home.
4:12 pm
also to make sera mist at home. that is exactly what is underway. pepsi has confirmed in fact that soda stream is running a trial now with some limited brands of pepsi in their at home make it at home. it's a ten week trial. it begins at walmart, bed bath, beyond, orlando in certain cities. with this potential deal, soda stream was up 15 percent today here at the close. pepsi also a winner up 1 percent today. year to date though soda stream has been a lagger down about 15 percent while pepsi has gained 4 percent. soda stream is a smaller stock, but the shares are rallying on this idea they'll be testing some pepsi drinks that you can make at home. (?) >> sounds like a lot of calories, nicole. >> you're young. who cares. mark sebastian is at the
4:13 pm
cmc to tell us how it's shaping up for monday. >> we're up a little bit. and, you know, i can't stress how important the level we're at right now. we're in between that hundred 50 day average. that will set the tone for the entire week. if we're up nicely on monday that will probably mean up all the way through to the fed. that will i can't wait to get on demand mountain dew at my house. so good job soda stream. have a good weekend. >> well, the first case of ebola has been diagnosed in new york city. dr. craig spencer contracted ebola while working with doctors without borders. adam shapiro live where the doctor is being treated. adam. david, and cheryl, the question now is whether his fiancé will test positive for ebola.
4:14 pm
she has shown no traits of having the virus in her system. as well as two other people along with her who is under quarantine. she's quarantined here. two of their friends are quarantined at their homes. all of them are in good health, this morning, the other question has to do with traveling. whether it was the doctor coming to africa from the united states or once he was here in the united states. there's a confusion of whether or not he was under a kind of self-imposed quarantine under doctors without borders guidelines. here's what the city's health commissioner had to say. >> we're still getting clear the amount of time he spent outside of his apartment, but our impression is that he spent most of his time inside his apartment. and he was taking his temperature twice a day. i don't want to give the impression that he was self-quarantining or -- because he was leaving his apartment.
4:15 pm
>> but keep in my mind that dr. craig spencer had been working for a month treating people who had been exposed to ebola. and here's the head of the cdc, tom frieden said back on october 15 about people who had potential exposure to ebola. these are the cdc guidelines. quote, cdc guidance in this setting outlines the need for controlled movement. that can include a charter plane. that can include a car, but it does not include public transport. that from the cdc two days before dr. spencer came back to the united states and, of course, according to the mta road the subway several times. the mta, by the way, this morning cleared the subway and said safe to ride. >> adam thank you very much for that live report from bellevue. >> the latest ebola patient came back from africa through jfk airport which supposedly as the best screening for ebola in the world.
4:16 pm
if the best screening doesn't work, is it time to start a travel ban from all countries heavily infected by ebola? former michael very different views on a travel ban. congressman long, first you aren't a lot of democrats getting together to call for a travel ban now? >> yes. they most definitely are. and the american public is telling us and over over that we need to ban travel from these areas. it's stimple. it's easy to do. we can cut off the visas until this hot area is not hot anymore and until people coming back from there can be tested just like they said this new enhanced travel ban i asked dr. frieden the other day in our hearing about checking people's temperatures by walking by them. that new enhanced system works. it's kind of like the underwear bomber when they tried to light his underwear and everyone
4:17 pm
tackled him. if you knowing that kind of system works, people tackling him if that was the system we had homeland security, then it worked. >> the fact is the system does not work. we have the best screening process available in the world at jfk. that's where dr. spencer came through. like mr. duncan who also had ebola. he didn't do what he was supposed to. again, when you take human error into account. you don't have a perfect system, do you? >> i would raise two issues here, first of all, the doctor who returned was an american citizen. are we suggesting that we will ban us citizens from entering the united states? >> hold on aced. yes what we're talking about a travel ban for all individuals who come from west africa. dr. spencer as you just heard said he was under quarantine -- put himself under quarantine. you're not under quarantine if you go out bowling if you use the subway.
4:18 pm
i don't know if you've been in a new york subway recently, but you can't help, but to be very close with the person next to you. >> well, travel bans have their limits. and my view is that we are going to learn as we go on how we can improve monitoring. apparently the doctor did not have a temperature when he landed. we'll learn more from this as we go. i've reported many times those who studied suggested they had a lot of problems and maybe we'll discover that's the best thing to do. the reality is we're learning as we go. >> congressman long there are countries in africa like nigeria who have travel bans against those countries in west africa affected more severely by ebola. they credit those travel bans from having spread ebola in their own countries. if they can do it 234 africa and they see some success to it, why shouldn't we?
4:19 pm
(?) >> that's exactly right. dr. frieden said it's becoming under control in africa. that's because the neighboring countries cut off travel. we need to as well. if it's an american citizen they need to be quarantined 21 days. if they want to come back here, they need to be quarantined 21 days at a safe location somewhere and then allow to come into this country. what does this new enhanced screening system if you can come through. do you have to have a temperature in order to pass it to other people? and he said, well, by the time you had a temperature you would be sick, maybe you would you wouldn't be out in public. what kind of plan is is that? we need to cut off these visas and get it under control. we don't need anymore nina pham and amber vinson. i was thrilled today to see that nina tested negative for any trace for ebola in her system. but we don't need to put
4:20 pm
our health care workers at risk. >> and we don't need to put our citizens at risk either. manhattan is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. we always hear about how it's difficult to contract ebola. unless you have personal contact. again, you cannot avoid personal contact in new york. it's one of the hazards of living in this city. if you don't have a ban, i can't think of any other way to assure of us of keeping with ebola out. >> you refer to it as a travel ban. we started to think of a travel ban as a complete cancellation of flights. now, we're talking about what i would call travel restrictions. that's where we're moving. that will what call for. significant travel restrictions. if this goins spread in other countries, this will become substantial more challenging proposition. could i say about those countries that have been able to avoid it, you
4:21 pm
mentioned senegal and ghana and others and nigeria. listen, they did a lot more than simply ban travel. there are a lot of ways people can travel. they were very aggressive in the way they contained. in the same way we did. i think we'll have good results. it's probably not the last case we'll see in the us so we'll have to do a lot more than simply travel bans. restrictions is where we're moving. very severe restrictions. i don't think we're a long ways apart. >> governor, we gave you the last word. really appreciate the debate. we want to hear from you folks. does the latest ebola case prove we need a travel ban in the u.s.? send a message on facebook or tweet us. >> david you and i last night were talking about amazon. that stock traded. it took a huge hit now, overstock is getting a huge boost.
4:22 pm
last quarter numbers and how is it outperforming its competitors. overstock ceo patrick byrne will be joining us in a fox business exclusive that's coming up next. three pro golfers are teaming up off the correspondence to create a line of craft beer. will it be a hit? we'll talk to golfer frederick jacobson. and spammers sending people fake emails embetted with malware. that story coming up.
4:23 pm
4:24 pm
4:25 pm
>> we want to bring you
4:26 pm
up-to-date on a developing story. 35 miles outside of seattle earlier this morning is dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. local police confirming another person has been killed. we assume a student, but we can't verify that right now. they're not aware of any threats made against the school before the shooting. we're awaiting an update from the hospital on the condition of several victims several of whom are on very serious condition. >> well, overstock they're actually getting a big boost. this stock is up 18 percent just over the past month. their competitor amazon took a huge hit. >> what is driving overstock's growth and how is the online retailer outperforming the biggest players. joining us now is our good friend patrick m. byrne, ceo and one of
4:27 pm
the most impressive men on the planet. patrick, great to see you. >> oh, stop. good to see you, david. david: i know you're famous for saying, i don't give a damn what happens to my stock day to day. however you got a big boost. do you gain when amazon is weak? is there a direct correlation? >> i don't really worry about them too much. we are perfecting ourselves. we are doing better and better. we're getting so many -- although we have a whole road map. in many ways we can get better. if we stick to our knitting and improve continuously -- david: are you saying that you can ignore the competition? >> well, we don't ignore them. we keep an eye on them president valuations on the marketplace have been so screwy for so long. i don't mean to slag
4:28 pm
anybody. here's amazon. we make more money than amazon. we have for on and off for the last three years. i think now we're nicely profitable. they've lost half a billion so far. i don't think they have the road map to profitability. we're getting more and more profitable. and we're inventing some huge things. the market values them 500 times than us. so it's surreal. i don't even know how to think about how the market treats them. >> one of the criticisms of amazon, it's cheryl, hello, come up with the fire and -- they come up with all these devices. they misspent their cash. you must be learning a lesson from this. if you want to do new things with overstock, what are you going do differently than what amazon has done. >> i thought that for years. they got this enormous buy from a bunch of cronies on wall street. they say we're spending
4:29 pm
all our cash on building warehouses. they don't count against your income statement. they get these enormous buys from the analysts on wall street. i didn't need to study amazon to know what to do. i grew up under mr. buffet and he taught me, you think about a business like your own whole business. there is no public market. you run it as if you're trying to build the greatest long-term value. that simple north star has made it easy to guide our decisions. we didn't make a lot of mistakes i did not because i studied jeff bez on his because i wasn't like gee i won't do that. it seems to work. >> you also grew up as a student for militant friedman. you love as well. he's a big free market guy. (?) he's say just don't worry about the chinese communist or anyone else you're competing with. compete as hard as you
4:30 pm
can. but alibaba is coming in like gangbusters into our market trying to make advantage of the weakness of amazon. i'm sure they're trying to cut into your market share as well. how nervous would you be about buying something on alibaba, i'm kind of giving you a softball knowing the chinese government with a history of hacking is very close to alibaba and i'm kind of nervous myself about giving them my credit card. would you be? >> let's just put it this way, i don't shop on alibaba. i don't shop on them. you might as well send your credit card information and personal history to some people on the far side of the pacific that you might want to have it. so i -- yeah, i mean, i prefer you shop at overstock than alibaba if that's what you're asking. >> i'm asking if we should all be nervous about the relationship of alibaba the company and a chinese government. >> i'll leave you
4:31 pm
investigative reporters to unscrambling that one. i speak chinese. i was a student in china years ago. i love china as a country. i'm not such a fan of the way their government runs their railroad, but i try not to slag them. it's a big world. we're going to be going over there. this country -- we're only 6 percent online. i think retail will shift to be 20, 30 percent online. >> congratulations on the quarter. patrick byrne. overstock.com. one final word. >> one final word, this ebola has everyone worried, if it breaks out, there will be isolate and quarantine the strategy. you'll be told to shelter in place. we've been building a platform that all the farmers market can integrate to. now, you can buy your food fresh organic have it delivered to your home. we cover 15 percent of
4:32 pm
the us population. we'll be up to 70 by the end of the year. >> thank you patrick. thank you so much. all right. well, take a look at ford. the stock falling today. recalls, europe on their earnings this morning. the company has key elements they hope they will turn everything around. we got the cfo coming up. >> making a sale at the end of that. what could be better than golf and beer? launching a new craft beer line. we'll be talking to golfer fredrik jacobson. we'll find which it is.
4:33 pm
4:34 pm
4:35 pm
4:36 pm
>> three pro golfers have teamed up to create some new options for the 19th hole. gray mcdowell, and freddie jacobson are teaming up a line called golf beer. they're target the outdoors consumer with refreshing taste. >> freddie jacobson joining us now. thanks for being here. a lot of other golfers have gotten into wine. it's kind of distinguished them. it gives them an air of sophistication. i love beer. but why did you choose beer instead of wine? >> yeah, it was for me personally it was a pretty easy call once i got approached. i felt there was a natural connection between golf and beer that isn't there with wine in the same aspect
4:37 pm
at least not when it comes to the 19th hole and being on premise. also personally i'm a beer guy. so that was a no-brainer for me. fifty plus golfers have gone down the line of making wine before, but no one had stepped into the beer market. we felt like it was a nice gap in the market for that. >> so who are you target here? is it just golfers? are you hoping to get the average joe golfer involved as well or basketball players? >> hopefully all beer lovers. obviously we have a natural connection with the golf audience, the outdoor living. the whole line of beers have been designed to fit a nice active lifestyle kind of an outdoor living. and we put them in a position where it's kind of a refreshing craft beer. it's not overly heavy. it can be suitable for a
4:38 pm
lot of different occasions. >> when you say not overly heavy it's light alcohol content so you can drink and drive. drive in the golf sense. >> drinking responsible. playing golf personally if i was out there and having a beer on the course or even after the run, i don't want to have six, 7 percent alcohol by volume, you know, so we position all them between four and a half and five. >> you got a blond ale thank you very much. >> thank you so much. thanks for having us and hopefully you'll enjoy all the beers. >> best of luck to you, my friend. thank you. two new york city police officers wounded in queens after being attacked by a machete, no actually a hatchet wielding crazy man. we'll have more on the state of the victims and possible motives behind the gruesome attack
4:39 pm
coming next. >> and ford a 40 percent drop in earnings. how does the company plan to bounce back? stay tuned to find out.
4:40 pm
4:41 pm
4:42 pm
david: airline ticket prices have been climbing over the past couple of years. the first half of the year the average ticket
4:43 pm
cost $509. that's up 2 percent since last year. what can you do to save on your ticket? your odds of saving improve if you buy on the weekend. airlines reporting corporate analyzed 130 million domestic and international round-trip tickets found that the lowest average price was found on sundays. the study says you should keep an eye on fairs, that's the day when the most frequent price drops leaving the door open for deals. the cheapest time to buy domestic trips online was 57 days before departure. tickets were 19 percent loafer if you did it that early. holiday travelers rarely save any money no matter when they book. doesn't make a difference. airlines know they'll most likely fill the flights. prices start high and stay high.
4:44 pm
>> i feel much early about my early purchase of my ticket. shares of ford in the red today. following earnings that failed to excite investors. the company isn't concerned on one quarter. they have their eye on what they hope will be a game changer. the new aluminum f-150. i asked bob if any of the new f-150s have hit the assembly line yet? >> absolutely. we actually have the plant up and running in its early day. we have started mass production. we're at the very initial stages of the launch curve as we start to accelerate and increase the pace of the line. off to a great start. so excited to get those products out to consumers. >> there's a little bit of concern among the analysts about the fact that they're somewhat worried that the vehicle, of course, replacing steel with aluminum, it will be
4:45 pm
more costly for you to produce and that will have a long-term impact on earnings. are you starting to factor that into your numbers? >> well, we expect the f-150 to be very, very profitable. and the change in our guidance this year from what we originally had at the beginning of the year had nothing to do with the f-150. it was more around external conditions and warranty costs particularly. recalls. we expect f-150 to be a driver of profitability. it's certainly an important part of our improvement to our eight and a half million profit in 2015. that's despite the fact that we won't have dearborn and other plant running until we get to our second quarter. >> let's talk about the rising cost of recalls. this is something that every automaker across the globe has had to deal with. are you setting aside
4:46 pm
cash to deal with potentially more recalls down the line? >> well, what we do do from an accounting standpoint with every vehicle we sale, we reserve a bit based on our history for a potential recall. not necessarily knowing any particular issue obviously at that point in time. but what we have seen this year is number of what we would call extraordinary recalls in terms of the size and magnitude. that's what happened to us in the third quarter. going forward, i think it's a really good question. if we're asking about whether there's a new normal, but frankly, you know, the recent recalls we've had in place are just issues we would have recalled, in any event, regardless of what's going on in the external environment today. something we're certainly looking at going forward. >> it's hard to know and i'm sure every ceo and cfo is saying the same thing. a little bit of a
4:47 pm
disappointment for the entire region. but china what a story. double digital percentage increases for china when it comes to sales. what is working for you right now in china? and can you continue to deliver that same kind of number quarter after quarter? >> well, what's working for us is products. the consumers are really responding both to the brand and to the entire line up. we've had a really strong utility line up within our overall portfolio and they're extremely strong. we've got more coming frankly. i think over the next maybe quarter or two, you probably want see the type of year over year improvements we've been delivering because we're at our capacity in china. >> let me ask you about one other global story because certainly the global sales number is critical and that is russia. a lot of concerns about russia that's been hurting the bottom line for you. do you worry more about geopolitical issues when it comes to russia or is it simply an economic
4:48 pm
story when it comes to the problems you're facing is there? >> that's a good question. i think they're all one and the same. the economy is clearly affected by what's happening from the geopolitical events, the sanctions and now what we're seeing, of course, the lower oil prices. which given the importance of oil to their overall economy is going to have a material impact if they say at the levels they're at right now. so something we're concerned about and trying to understand what it might mean. should they stay at this level at 2015, that's a challenge for everyone doing business in russia. >> we're still waiting what the miles per gallon will be on the new f-150. can you give us a number? >> i can't give you a number, but we expect to have the labels confirmed by, no, i have. that's the time frame we're looking at. >> again, a little of a
4:49 pm
rough day for ford. the stock trading down, but bob is optimistic as you can see there. >> i love that truck. scammers are taking advantage of the fear with regard to ebola. they're sending out malware through emails designed to capitalize on the recent panic. we'll tell you how to keep your personal information safe. plus, a man attacking new york police officers with a hatchet. could this be connected to the recent calls by radicals to attack military and police officers? the guy was a recent convert to islam. we've got more information coming next. >> i'm gerri willis coming up is the latest on that ebola case in new york city. was that doctor irresponsible in putting those people for risk at infection. will the government quarantine returning health care workers? one of the big stories coming occupy "the willis report" in just ast few minutes.

4:54 pm
