for a little bit but i think history clearly shows that if you do that over a long period of time it ends in tears. the other aspect. charles: what you're saying we have to do homework no matter what. i appreciate it and i appreciate you. i have a little bit of momentum but not the cp effect but enough to take to the closing bell. liz: considering where we've been i think this is a pretty decent move we were down more than 100 points on the dow, let's take it. yes donald trump's lawyers are about to begin their defense arguments in the second impeachment trial of the former president but you would not know anything was happening at the capital at the white house where high-stakes meeting on the economy just wrapped up president biden, vice president harrison treasury secretary janet yellen bringing in the heaviest hitters in the business world.

the comments just made about what's needed to heal the financial wounds of the pandemic. this is a wartime push for vaccines is very much into the unfolding mode but is now perplexed with the time to pull back on the stocks behind the lifesaving preventatives and the investor doctor chris barton gives her diagnosis on this. within over looking to play their own rolls in the pandemic fight as a rideshare gun the engine to survive ahead of their latest quarterly report or all-star panel is here to tell you which app you should add to your portfolio, not both, which one. markets looking to muscle their way to new records any gain for the dow, s&p, nasdaq and russell will do it. and bitcoin looking absolutely unbreakable after smashing through the 48000-dollar mark overnight yes it is slightly down the back above 47000. as we watch that more before we dive into the market and everything else

we will begin with breaking news. the president discussing a wide range of economic issues with the top business leaders in the nation ranging from the health of the economy to raising the minimum wage. j.p. morgan chase ceo jamie dimon walmart ceo doug mcmillan and lows chief and u.s. chamber of congress tom donahue and sonja signal the president and ceo of the gap all in attendance. our blake burman is outside. liz: did they go in the black door, we want to know exactly what they talked about. >> we would love to ask them questions, it's my experience when you get the biggest players you put them on the screen, they like to go and where the cameras are not. but in any event we saw them on camera briefly at the very beginning of this meeting with president biden if it's still ongoing it would mean it would go on for an hour were just

trying to figure out if it's happening or not any event some of the biggest players when you talk about the president the treasury secretary janet yellen and you mentioned jamie mentioned jamie dimon and doug mcmillan. we heard from president biden that he wanted to talk about the economy, the rescue package, after the infrastructure which the president has signaled will be one of his next major items along with the topics of the day or at least certainly of the week not being minimum wage the president make an argument off the top with the american people are hurting and real trouble and there was part of his continued push to go for a massive release package entered release package. >> were in a position to think big and move big and move in the direction that cannot only get the economy back but we have to get people well before we get people on their feet. >> it was interesting to hear the president say they would talk about the minimum wage there is a nonpartisan score this

projection from the congressional budget office, the white house is pushing back on some, the c.b.o. said not only would it reduce poverty by 900,000 people if the minimum wage were to go to $15 an hour but it would lead to 1.4 million job losses. the white house today saying in part they don't necessarily align with some of those numbers on the job losses front but they also said the president will be unveiling what they call a jobs package in the upcoming weeks as well. liz: jobs we need will be watching all of this and when you have jamie dimon in the oval office you will get good information, the second we get some of the details and work land your rarity of what happened will get it to you in the meantime, the world of gaming right now is the fastest growing sector in its evolving outta brace neck pace, look at blue mobile, the stock is trading around 35% higher

at the moment already taking out the $12.50 a share all cash purchase price, were at 1271 right now but this deal gives flew out $2.1 billion value glue is known for games focused on celebrities like tim kardashian but the portfolio includes design home in mlb sports baseball. it is getting props for investors of the acquisition as well, the stock moving higher by 2.7% obviously mobile is not the only way that the gaming industry is expanding, yesterday's skills ceo to discuss his gaming platform tools company and the deal that is struck with nfl collaboration with game developer challenge that will enable off-line sports data better access to online gamers in the way that the gamers really envision it.

if you take a look at the competition we have two interactive lower came out with earnings a little bit of a disappointment down 5.8% activision blizzard up 1.7% and microsoft the parent of xbox is moving higher by three quarters of 8%. it is not just child's play were looking at the bedding apps, mobile bedding, draftkings, flutter the majority stake in fanduel, pinned national gaming in our parent fox that has fox back, we have a mixed picture to up to down, i want to bring in the traders from the floor show tom hayes and scott bauer. with all signs pointing to mobile where people want to consume media right now what do you like in this phase? >> the interesting thing about the deal 2.4 billion cash was despite tac stock trading at 2026 times earning they decided to not use any stock. if management wants to hold onto their stock i want to hold onto it $175 billion industry 50% of that is mobile, glue has 14 million

monthly mobile users ea has 100 million but blue grew at 25% in q4 ea is only growing that at 3% so this is going to help ea grow their mobile ea will help grow the international exposure and distribution the competitors as you say 35 times earnings with flat growth we don't like that as much, atv i has call of duty, they are trading at 28 times earnings and grow 16% but ea has fifa and blue mobile in their trading at 26, the lowest multiple and what could be the highest growth in years to come we like more growth for a more multiple. liz: yes, i agree. that's what you want. you want to be buying at the right price, these are momentum names and had you asked me when zoom in the early part of the pandemic was moving so much higher

and $50 or something somebody said should i buy it and i said it's a momentum, look at them now i pull this thing up and again, it's not a gamer stock but are these the new stay-at-home stocks that might really have more wind at their back? >> listen tom made a great point this deal be an all cash deal there not giving up stock the insiders are holding onto the stock in general the biggest aspect that i love is a generational demand young and old love video games that means the market will continue to grow and it's not just the u.s. phenomenon this is a global demand and it's the highest it's ever been, the demand in semi conductors in the recent consul feels that were seen, their peak demand, were seen these companies both on the gaming embedding level just expanding and expanding. the 26 times earnings you have to throw that out this

could be 30 or 40 or 50. i love ea also from a technical standpoint this thing is coming up to major resistance like a triple top up to 149, i think this breaks out and the sky is the limit. i really do. liz: we showed the semi conductor all of this needs microchips to run, i get all, i did want to mention zoom it is trading at $433. what happens to the stay-at-home trades do the pellets on survive and then the doordash do not do as well, you have to give me a sense. >> you mentioned online betting and this is a perfect analogy because you take a look at drafting is trading at $25 billion a hundred million dollars of revenue 30 times sales, that flew with the stay-at-home stocks last year. a good way to play online betting i would go for fox corporation, your record

ratings in the second half of 2020 on fox news and fox business, it is trading at 13.5 times earning into v streaming in fox but for free versus penn national which is trading 69 times earnings and their gross as barstools they only own 36% of barstool i would play that through fox corporation 5 billion in cash on the balance sheet they can buy back stock they could do the acquisition and you get the betting business for free. how is that. liz: today fox eight is 5% cheaper, if tom is right it goes higher and we will continue to watch all of this, there is to be which is a big deal. great to see you both thank you so much. in the latest episode of attack, one merger between biotech companies seemed like a sure thing, gemini therapeutics which debuted yesterday cell on the first day of trade it was falling

act now. liz: to the hottest burning question on the planet, was coping created by man for mother nature. the world health organization says the virus spreads to humans through an animal host not because of a lot of accident. the world health organization that conducted a massive investigation that involves scrutinizing thousands of human samples

and animal test in the chinese city of wuhan where the virus first emerged announced it is extremely unlikely that the virus leaked from a chinese laboratory. meanwhile in the united states the race to vaccinate people is ramping up nearly 10% of the population has now received one dose the flurry to develop a vaccine and other cutting-edge medical tech has proven to be beneficial for the entire sector the new york stock exchange biotech index is up 22% over the past year. we want to bring in somebody who spans the gamut when it comes to knowledge about this she is a physician and an investor we welcome doctor chris barden portfolio manager oncology, great to have you. it would make perfect sense for an investor to say i cannot go wrong investing in the vaccine makers, millions of people want what they have right now but should they be chasing the run up that we have

seen? >> i think we have to be a little cautious and biotech the market is most certainly very hot we seen record inflows of capital from the institutional as well as the retail side and we seen record numbers of financing i think that combined with a low interest-rate environment has seen the biotech run-up over the course of last year. with regard to your specific question for vaccine obviously were incredibly grateful for the incredible work the vaccine companies have done my myself and grateful my mother got a vaccine two weeks ago. the question is how big is the market going to be and how is it going to get split up with the major players. in terms of how big is the market going to be it's still whether patients will need one vaccine or if they'll need multiple vaccines every year like a flu vaccine for example. with the new variance coming out. liz: can i stop either, what do you think i just asked the doctor the other

day and the doctor said you're probably going to need to get every year. that only extends the opportunity for these names doesn't not. >> i think that is true and were seen new variance right now coming out of the uk and south africa which suggest the very least we may need a second vaccine but i would say that the jury is still out because the real goal is not to prevent cases of coronavirus the real goal is to prevent hospitalization, severe illness and death and that is not available in terms of how the new variance will affect the long-term. i think the other question. liz: one more thing on the vaccine makers and i want to actually get to what you do think are the opportunities that are out there that are not so overheated when you look at pfizer, pfizer has a price-to-earnings ratio of ten that is extraordinarily cheap which is good and it's about $8 off the 52

week high, why not this type of stock for portfolio when you look from an investment perspective. >> i think from a major pharma company they are certainly very attractive and from that perspective they have faced earnings from the normal base business and pfizer is a prominent player in a field like oncology so they have a great underlying business in some way vaccine is crossing on the case but if you look at a company like moderna now which is a 70 billion-dollar company half of the size of pfizer but obviously without the incredible earnings and revenue different that they have. i think the other question how are the players going to split up the market i think we are not only seeing new players such as j&j and astrazeneca coming on board but several up-and-coming biotech companies like novavax and even smaller ones that may be competitive on the long-term the final thing that you have to remember we have data from russia.

liz: what else do you like is there something else within the subsector of the overall medical space, biotech firm a space that you feel is a better opportunity. >> i think right now i'm a fundamental investor and i think oncology is one of the most attractive spaces and biotech. at the end of the day he was be surprise oncology market how to slow down during covid we stopped doing clinic visits and drug treatment with less urgent cancers. but at the end of the day cancer is one of the biggest on medical needs in cancer patients is set to double over the next 20 years. from that perspective's were investing in a fundamental innovation in cancer and were excited about areas of targeted therapies and we think the cancer from a long-term perspective is one of the highest growth areas and biotech. liz: that makes a lot of

sense were gonna put your oncology pics on your facebook.com liz claman page because we like ideas from people who get it who are right there within the space on so many levels. doctor christina barton, we appreciated thank you so much. >> thank you for having me on. liz: heating up at this hour, ubs raised its price target by $14 to $54 a share is $42.10 right now this from the company behind the thousand dollar parkas. let's move it over to today's up arrows be the signal that where's the start of a comeback story for the ages for luxury retail overall not just the price of parkas. the stocks you need to watch the glitzy is names and shopping prepare for life post-covid closing bell 39 minutes away we have the s&p in the green, the dow and the green, same with the nasdaq and the russell not a bad day, stay

but it's also largely because of the pandemic you can do in-store shopping but luxury retailers have been struggling for the last year or so, sales down about 23% compared to 2019 but there are signs of hope in this industry, largely they improved online sales they went from 12% 2019 to about 23% online sales with the luxury retail sector in 2020 that's expected to continue to grow but everybody wants to know when brick-and-mortar retail be back when will i be able to go to the magnificent mile and go shopping like i used to. there is hope there as well the real estate firm j ll says by the end of 2021 they expect 80% of employees to be back in offices which is promising for downtown sectors like magnificent mile, times square and other areas

where there's a lot of people working which drives sales. another area of promise, tourism is expected to pick up a lot of people don't think of this right now when they're not traveling but what do people do when they travel they go to the luxury retail areas and they spend their money. it could be time until sales recovered in 2019 levels but there are signs of promise on the horizon and all of the stores like omega behind me there used to creating the experiences. they're not something that you can get online and that's why there's hope in the sector in particular luxury retail, high-end shopping that it could bounce back after the pandemic. liz: you have lv mh, canada goose, were very slightly lower but it's great to feel that there will be a comeback and when the weather gets good i am putting on designer purses on my arms, look at me. thank you very much, grady trimble. lift is just minutes away

ask your doctor about trulicity. - i decided to diversify, mainly because of where we are as a nation, with our debt that the government has, and the value of the dollar, and how the value continues to drop. i just thought it'd be wise to have a hard asset that could be passed down. one of the reasons i bought gold was because i want to create an inheritance

for my children and my grandchildren. i was born and raised on this ranch, i married young, just a fabulous man that i'm still married to, 56 years later. we have two daughters, 13 grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren. i feel like that gold and silver, it's a tangible, hands-on inheritance. whereas your dollar is backed by nothing. it's just paper. of course, nothing is without risk. and that being said, i feel that by diversifying with precious metals that i'm covering my bases. you need a whole basket full of different ways of preserving wealth, or creating wealth. so gold and silver is a way of doing that. so i went back on the gold standard.

but you should not, yes both were slammed by the pandemic but that's pretty much where the comparison ends if you had to grab the wheel of one of them for your probe for leah which one. to our panel chief technology strata list brad and market watch senior reporter john swarts, welcome, purely on stock performance alone look at the annual comp chart i was looking at this year-over-year lyft is up 7% while uber is up 49%, they had very different recovery is a choice as simple as this? >> we like the basket approach and we like both of the companies but if you're looking at one of them lyft has not performed as well to your point. there is definitely more room for multiple expansion and you might get a little bit more performance because of that you have to look at does the investor have more appetite for a pure play) company or with

uber's case closed along with the delivery services. they're both going to be really set up very well for the next six or 12 months as we get to the recovery phase but lyft has more. liz: how can you say that when uber clearly, a is international and please push back if you disagree but uber has an international business and uber has a new burrito which is offset so many of the losses it is seen over the past year due to the pandemic and nobody wanting to get into the car with a strange driver that they don't know they have been tested were wearing a mask et cetera. if you look at that and say they are expanding in the delivery area why do you see both of the seamen away. >> we like both opportunities you are right and it's a great question

when i say you have more room for expansion uber has it evaluation, lyft as a kcbs closer to uber's evaluation then we close the gap it might be more of an opportunity for upside, as you mentioned you do have more international plays with uber and ridesharing and delivery side. we think both will benefit and as you get a shift from the work from home to the recovery place both of these companies benefit. liz: talk to me about what uber is doing in the delivery space. >> that's a differentiator for me for it breeds if you look at what's estimated this quarter uber eats is going to be $1.5 billion compared to 819 million in q1, it's nearly doubled in size and it's 42% of uber's quarterly sales and on top

of that is the alcohol delivery app whose gross bookings grew more than 20% year-over-year, that is clearly where the growth is, if you look in times of ridesharing the numbers for the quarter if there correct will be significantly up for rides on uber about 1.76 billion compared to the low point of a hundred million or 790 million in q2, and two tracks it is growing incredibly well and if you look at lyft their delivery service is still an early stage plus they are not making cost cuts like uber like getting rid of autonomous vehicles for an instance. liz: does lyft make a big announcement "after the bell" today about their so-called delivery service we don't have a grip on what that may be. >> i think the numbers are

just in the beginning of the recovery but i do think the outlook will be favorable with the global economy is certainly opening up in both of these companies play right into that and i think there's a mindset for most people that they want to go out and do something for such a long period of time and they will consume uber and lyft ridesharing, and i also believe it's very strong soy don't disagree with that, lyft if it makes a comment on the after. liz: john i've got to talk about the coin because obviously the announcement or the reveal that tesla has bought a half a billion worth of the coin has sent it to the moon previously high was 44000 it's about 48000 and were trading at 47000 foragers $65 and

climbing. tell me what do you think you have michael buri he was the picture guy, really smart and he came out and said this is elon musk trying to distract from the problems tesla is having with its quality control in china. i don't even know how he would know that but what do you think can you give us some sense of what is going on. >> there is no sense going on with bitcoin if you look at it a try think came out a couple of days ago about the factor which is grown over the yearly. in the same growth was over a monthly. then it was a daily. now it's an hourly. there is no sense to what is going on there i would not discount anything in terms of distraction but he's a good businessman this was a pretty wide investment at the time he made. can i go back to something about lyft that i did mention they are going to be significantly lower in terms of revenues of uber because they're not well known as a name and in

operation. one thing i want to say in defense of lyft there is survey data that indicates younger writers are more inclined to use lyft and that might help them as they move away from public transportation and vaccinations pick up that is a hidden strength that lyft has that we don't really talk about too much. liz: the numbers are coming out "after the bell" the expectation is a net loss of 72 fence and the revenue is not a loss it'll be 562 million. more than what uber is going to be down but uber reports tomorrow. thank you for keying us up for the two big names in this space. tiktok craze not going away anytime soon and looks like some of the biggest stars are looking to bring back old school fabs, charlie gasparino breaks it on the big deals being made with tiktok next.
