investors are exciting to be listening closely to the bed action almost will pay attention to the impact on stocks. you can expect them to be thinking about the broader economy and real estate. he oversees a real estate empire cheering stock exchange investment trust known as [inaudible]. bill famously sold his equity property trust and office space for $39 billion for the 2007 real estate crisis. what does the lc for the real estate market in the economy? in a new rate environment them jointly now. great to have you on the program. >> thank you. maria: let me get your take on where we are in the economy? we spoken in the past and you said you are a seller of commercial real estate and wordy about the pockets but where do you see things today? >> i don't see any reason to really change my viewpoint. i have been one who has been a
12:03 am
seller of real estate primarily because i was not a buyer. but every analysis comes down to the day you don't buy you sell and the day you don't sell, you buy. then you say what is it - where do we stand and how are evaluations relative to historic et cetera and i think things are frothy and the benefit is a significant way from the fact that there has been a gift of supply and the drift of supply is shortchanging. we are seeing very significant new supply in office and see new supply in multifamily. the flavor of the month is industrial and i don't know but i do a lot of reading and look for idiosyncrasies. one of the particular things that i found is that everybody in the world is building
12:04 am
industrial. now, i know that amazon is terrific and i think they're great company but everybody is building industrial everywhere? and building it and using - million, 2 million square-foot building and i just wonder whether, you know, the lack of discipline that marks the real estate in the is not coming but something said it so well when he who fails to learn from history has condemned to repeat it. i just have this sense that we have a lot of supply coming on and it will affect various parts of real estate and different sectors and different times. maria: buyers have changed. you mentioned amazon but they're not looking for warehouse space so that they can deliver items in short proximities. you have healthcare fine up lots of the space and living longer
12:05 am
and while this is a major trend right now so doesn't matter to you that the tenants have changed, that the buyers of some of the industrial has changed? >> the answer is - i discussed it with someone another day we talked about the fact that i raised the first opportunity fund in 1990 and raised a billion dollars. maria: back then. >> yes, the biggest bond anyone raised. no sovereign wealth funds. a lot of different - 79 investors for 1 billion, $50 million. maria: incredible smack by million-dollar institutional investors alongside 150 million dollars investors in that world has changed. it's a lot of capital out there and looking at opportunity. maria: but you are seen opportunity and the like waste and logistics. >> i think that we are investing
12:06 am
in those arenas in the waste space which is and we felt that there was a real opportunity to acquire and rollup companies and been involved in that. we been involved in both energy and refinery space but we are looking for - we have no choice but were looking for the specialized situations where we can what are our strengths. our specialty is speed and certainty. so, were looking for opportunities for you get paid for speed. maria: that the good way to put it. you got to make a decision. >> well, who am i competing with? institutions that have committees and go through a long process.
12:07 am
that is my favorite competitor. i just can't get enough of them. maria: sam, stay with us. more to discuss when we come back with sam zell, one wall street returns. i'll never find a safe used car. start at the new carfax.com show me minivans with no reported accidents. boom. love it.

12:09 am
it may be time for a change. ask your doctor about entyvio®, the only biologic developed and approved just for uc and crohn's. entyvio® works at the site of inflammation in the gi tract, and is clinically proven to help many patients achieve both symptom relief and remission. infusion and serious allergic reactions can happen during or after treatment. entyvio® may increase risk of infection, which can be serious. pml, a rare, serious, potentially fatal brain infection caused by a virus may be possible. tell your doctor if you have an infection experience frequent infections or have flu-like symptoms, or sores. liver problems can occur with entyvio®. if your uc or crohn's treatment isn't working for you, ask your gastroenterologist about entyvio®. entyvio®. relief and remission within reach. racing isn't the only thing on my mind. and with godaddy, i'm making my ideas real. when i created my business,

12:11 am
we have a refinery in hawaii here and wyoming and other refineries assets on our agenda. all of which are acquirable at significant discounts to what it would cost to replace them. you may argue that there is no justification for fully replacing them but i don't think that jet fuel is going away and i don't think gasoline is going away in the next two weeks. therefore, i think that some of the analysis of the refineries is under representing what the opportunities are. looking at different places in the united states, invested in [inaudible] and invested in [inaudible] and invested in colorado gas. we try to have a broad perspective without making too big a bet on anyone around.
12:12 am
maria: it's extraordinary that the us is or is about to become an oil and energy exporter. >> how many years did we listen to every political campaign that started with energy independen independence. maria: exactly. >> and, you know, we've achieved energy independence. maria: that was one of present drums main goals in moving economic growth. we sought two straight quarters of a% growth and to what you attribute that and how would you characterize the broader economic backdrop? is it tax policy and rollback of regulations or something else? >> i think it's an attitude. i was talking with someone the other day who is in a highly regulated industry and basically said to him what was it like this for and what is it like n now. he said before the discussion
12:13 am
with the regulator was always about how much the punishment would be. today the discussion with the regular is how can we avoid punishment and that changes the way people look at everything and if you view the government as a major impediment then you go out of your way to avoid the government. in many cases, that defined itself is not making investments and not taking risk. maria: right. >> other side of the coin as if there's a positive attitude then that encourages people to take risks and the best capital. to test the limits. maria: to higher interest rates and a string of rate hikes change the scenario. yes, you're right. animal spirits have been unleashed. they were sitting on cash and other not. federal reserve that is bent on

taking rates up from the bottom and probably the rates go up next week when the fed meets with your take on the impact? >> a guy named jim grant. maria: been regular on the show back two or three years ago he writes this thing called grant support. maria: grant interest rate observer. >> and he had an article once, two or three years ago about someone calling and asked about interest rates and said it's a little bit like, to me, and ba. he says let me explain. he says up until whenever it was in 1957 basketball had no shot clock. so the worst example which was the lakers beat the syracuse nationals and the next day the owner of the nationals put in a shot clock. it saved basketball. in the same manner i would argue
12:15 am
that low interest rates at the level at which we have been for the last few years . maria: we were at zero. >> from my perspective that illuminates the sense of urgency. if you limit the sense of urgency it changes the way you look at any opportunities and meet talk about the guys who have huge amount of cash on their balance sheet and the interest rates say zero what the urgency to invest it. maria: you want this mini ablation to stop? you want rates to be where they naturally shut? >> the governments of the world manipulate . maria: currencies. >> since the beginning of time and it would be nice that we went on to impede that from going forward but that's not exactly a realistic assessment. i thank you need interest rates. at reasonable levels in order to encourage people to act.
12:16 am
if i don't have a meter on my decision-making that it's a big impact on how i make decisions. maria: good point. sam, stay with us. more to discuss when we come back with sam zell when wall street returns. your insurance rates skyrocket after a scratch so small you could fix it with a pen. how about using that pen to sign up for new insurance instead? for drivers with accident forgiveness, liberty mutual won't raise their rates because of their first accident. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ is important to me so father being diagnosed with advanced non-small cell lung cancer made me think of all the things

that i wanted to teach my kids. (avo) another tru story with keytruda. (roger) my doctor said i could start on keytruda so i did. with each scan things just got better. (avo) in a clinical study, keytruda offered patients a longer life than chemotherapy. and it could be your first treatment. keytruda is for adults with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread... ...who test positive for pd-l1 and whose tumors do not have an abnormal "egfr" or "alk" gene. it's the immunotherapy with the most fda-approved uses for advanced lung cancer. keytruda can cause your immune system to attack normal organs and tissues in your body and affect how they work. this can happen anytime during or after treatment and may be severe and lead to death. see your doctor right away if you experience new or worsening cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, diarrhea, severe stomach pain or tenderness, nausea or vomiting, rapid heartbeat, constipation, changes in urine, changes in eyesight, muscle pain or weakness, joint pain, confusion or memory problems, fever, rash, itching or flushing, as this may keep these problems from becoming more serious.
12:18 am
these are not all the possible side effects of keytruda. tell your doctor about all your medical conditions including immune system problems, or if you've had an organ transplant or lung, breathing, or liver problems. (roger ) before i'd think of the stuff i might miss. but now with keytruda, we have hope. (avo) living longer is possible. it's tru. keytruda, from merck. ask your doctor about keytruda. you shouldn't be rushed into booking a hotel. with expedia's add-on advantage, booking a flight unlocks discounts on select hotels until the day you leave for your trip. add-on advantage. only when you book with expedia. add-on advantage. comcast business built the nation's largest gig-speed network. then went beyond. beyond chasing down network problems. to knowing when and where there's an issue. beyond network complexity. to a zero-touch, one-box world. optimizing performance and budget. beyond having questions. to getting answers.

12:20 am
that there minute things will slow down and that were looking at a 3% growth year this year but by the time 2020 rolls around we may be talking 1.9, 2% which comes from the dow federal reserve. >> i don't know who is head of the federal reserve. maria: robert kaplan. >> i thank you got a great track record. my guess is, my guess is he'll be running again. we are sitting here talking about growth rates between three-4%. allow me to remind you when that was brought up in the presidential election in 16 that the candidate who suggested that we could grow at three or 4% was hillary - [inaudible] yet, here we are. change the perspective and attitude and way people think about opportunity. maria: let's talk about the
12:21 am
issues that are of some concern to some, trade and tariffs. what is your take on where we are now with canada? china and the us has perspective china for the theft of intellectual property which china still will not admit. the force transfer of technology and doing so with tariffs, will it work? >> well, the answer is if i knew whether it will work or not, i would be rich. maria: i thank you are rich. [laughter] >> you have made me bad but i just don't think that people have looked at this problem from a broad enough perspective. let's take nafta. we created nafta 25 years ago. nafta was 50% foreign policy and 50% trade. what was the foreign policy? stop illegal immigration and solidify our neighbor to the south guess what? both of them worked.
12:22 am
in worked great. well, it's 25 years later and maybe it's time - maybe we should take another look. i think that is what the ministration is done. interestingly enough, i'm close to the mexicans involved in my initial reaction was i thought this would be wildly and tight us but in effect they said to me we need to rethink how we do things, including the fact that nafta has a shifted our thinking so that we only think about markets to the north when in fact there are lots of markets to the south and in europe that we not developed and maybe this will help us do that. maria: you have the midterm elections, third corning recorder earning season on the rise and let's go back to the us to get your take on what is going on here with evaluations. you see these catalysts been an issue for markets?
12:23 am
>> well, i think that the markets are first of all bifurcated - seven or eight facts that represent all the growth or most of the growth. maria: yeah, those stocks alone represent almost 10% of the s&p 500. >> i'm not sure you're old enough but i was around the nifty 50 and i don't know what percentage of those nifty 50 reps and in but it was a similar - it was a significant percentage and then it changed. some of the evaluations today are challenging to understand one of these committees sells for 125 times earnings did you do the math and 125 times earnings means that the return on capital is under 1%. if you have a company that's trading at 125 times earnings in
12:24 am
order for it to justify that ratio has to be 25% of the us economy in five years. i'm willing to bet on public television that ain't going to happen. by the way, the last time i looked at the numbers like that was 1997 and the company selling for 125 times earnings was called cisco and we would know what happened there. maria: cisco plummeted. >> every company plummets from those levels. we not even talked about tesla. maria: i was just going to ask you. >> explain it to me. maria: what do you say to tesla? >> i don't know what to say. company loses money after significant subsidies from state and federal governments and still loses money. maria: burning cash. >> there's a guy who is the ceo who does things on twitter that everyone else goes to jail for. i would go to jail if i
12:25 am
announced that i was taking one of my companies private and funding was secured. they would hang me out to dry. how come he misses the [inaudible] how come he gets the past? we done that before. the guy who ran enron got a pass. we seen other situations where we glorify people who where reality is no longer relevant in making a decision. maria: great to have you on
