half percentage point hit in stocks to alert you to a possibly 25% hit in home prices. you heard me right. goldman sachs out with a stunning report cites u.s. cities that could be in for record price drops. we'll tell you the cities. here is a hint. two are in california. those four markets might discuss be the start. now former vice president mike pence, the latest government official with some explaining to do over classified documents in his home. we talk to a guy who used handle a lot of pens's explaining in the past. former press secretary mark lauter is here, only here. have you heard the latest, the congressional budget office now says that social security trust fund could be completely exhalfed, i.e., out of cash, ten years if republicans and democrats don't do something big and fast and soon. something like ronald reagan and tip o'neill did 40 years ago.
12:02 pm
amazing what politicians can do when they put the politics aside. welcome, everybody, glad to have you. i'm neil cavuto. even with some nasty emails you've been sending i encourage you to keep sending them. we'll share some doozies in just a moment. more on that later. the real worries over real estate. they're compounding, four key cities where they're expected to fall 25% or more. kelly o'grady has more from california. kelly? >> reporter: that's right, neil. we're seeing more signs the housing market is cooling quickly. goldman sachs expects home prices to decline as interest rates continue to skyrocket with some cities facing catastrophic dips. unfortunately for me they're all on the west coast. goldman is predicting in 2023, san jose, san diego, both in california, phoenix, arizona, austin, texas, they will see home prices decrease 25%. for context that would be similar to 2008 when the bubble burst and prices across the u.s.
12:03 pm
dropped 27%. goldman is free checking average decline nationally should be small enough to avoid a sharp increase in for closures. that said the western region could be in trouble. they shared this, quote, overheated housing markets and the southwest pacific coast presenting localized risk for higher delinquencies with mortgages from late 20202 and 2021. what does it mean? if you own a home your market will get cooler especially in those cities. if you're looking to buy, price declines in phoenix or austin could present a opportunity. that could be offset by higher mortgage rates. we're 6.15% for 30 year fix. that is down from% from november. one place that will prove extra difficult, miami. i thought this was really interesting, goldman was predicting a increase of 0.8% in home prices. that will certainly crunch
12:04 pm
things for homebuyers there. neil, overall home prices are cooling across the country. that is what the fed likes to see. i wish los angeles was one of those where i am. i'm still renting. neil: not exactly affordable. thank you very much for that kelly o'grady following that. kristin jordan back with us, real estate agent extraordinaire. she was shaking her head from that report. you don't buy but this idea we'll have a huge bubble burst, right? >> the hardest part about a article like this, every market is localized. they're pointing out austin, texas. as you asaustin is huge. further outside you have sprawling cities i think it is very hard to generalize. of course we're seeing that prices have come up so much that the, if they come down this, talking about 10% or something like that we're still at above
12:05 pm
average appreciation year-over-year since 2019. neil: it's a good point because i know certainly in the phoenix market, prices went up more than 50%. so even a 25% tumble would leave you up a net 25 but having said that is there something that the hot markets are the first to give up some ground and why wasn't florida then part of that? >> the hot markets coming down first makes sense because some of them didn't have fundamentals for demand. like a table that has only one leg very as you a table with multiple legs. new york city is a table with multiple legs. we have multiple streams of buyers. same with florida. multiple states people are leaving to come to florida for tax purposes. but the record demand you always have from new yorkers. neil: nothing like the bubble we saw a decade ago. so we don't have that going on? isolated selloffs in different markets? >> markets didn't have fundamentals for sustained
12:06 pm
demand and the demand those markets had had a lot to do with people working remotely, feeling they could live anywhere. if that demand goes away, people expect deappreciation to continue, that will not happen. demand stops. some people are extremely rate sensitive, they're priced out of the market until rates return for them to get in the market. neil: it is can any, kristen. rates go down a little bit. don't have to go down a lot. mortgage rates were 7% this week. a lot of cash buyers are out, a lot of those who put a good deal of money down as deposit are out what sustains this. >> people that have been watching, waiting, were priced out because prices were going up at the same time as rates were going up because for a little while rates went up while prices still went up. neil: right. >> prices started to come down. rates came down a little bit, people said okay, that house i'm eyeing on zillow is in my price
12:07 pm
range because i have the mortgage calculator right there. i'm ready to go. neil: a lot of sellers, unless i'm missing something, they're not budging. they know what their home was worth a year ago. they don't want to give up the goose. i understand that. until they do, a lot of buyers can't come in to take advantage of this, right? >> there is a stalemate. a lot of sellers are stuck don't have a place to go because there is a lack of inventory. a lot of markets are experiencing -- neil: where is the inventory problem the worst, in other words the most acute? >> the most acute i know just for example from our local markets we're seeing westchester has incredibly, incredibly tight market where there is very little inventory. new york city is completely neighborhood dependent, completely neighborhood depent dent. it is about knowing your local market. any real estate in affluent marketplace, part of florida, there is no inventory for the regular buyer to come in to purchase right now.
12:08 pm
neil: people paying $100 million for a penthouse in new york, whatever, where are they gone? are they still there, are they doing that, what? >> those buyers are definitely watching right now to see where they find opportunity. they want the feel the sellers are having a little bit of pain when going after the properties. we're seeing trades that have not hit yet of real discounts, still a big price point. somebody asking 50 million, trading at 40 million. they want to make sure the seller had to give up a real discount. they're ready to transact if there is value. neil: taking a look at the real estate market as a whole in this country, how would you describe it? these hot markets notwithstanding could be so hot they tumble from the hot levels? maybe like the four cities we got into so what's the national picture. >> the national picture definitely buyers watching and waiting will jump off the fence and we'll see a very, very active spring market in any market and the markets that had these really, really frothy demand that we don't really know
12:09 pm
where the demand really came from, they're going to struggle. there will have to be discounts there. overall we'll see a busy spring market for buyers watching, waiting, we're priced out six, nine, 12 months ago. neil: you still get competing bids, right? >> when there are opportunities buyers are more educated than they ever been. you will see more than one bidder on that property. neil: thank you very much. good read on things. kristen jordan, real estate. pick your poison, we're overdone or ripe for this, hard to tell. as you know things changed around here with new shows, timelines. this is a one-hour show now. we try to pack a lot in. we want to get your reaction to a lot of this. we invite you to email and tweet us. many of you have. tweet at teem cavuto. traditional email at cavuto @folks dot-com. just i expected you would would

♪. neil: we're down half what we were, what is interesting about what you're watching right now in techland because that is where it all started microsoft coming out with earnings last night. earnings beat the street. revenues were a little soft people were weighing on it, cloud business, some other things they're doing don't look promising. by morning it was selling off. since it led to other tech names selling off, but last time i checked there are other technology stocks here. don't know what to what i can of reaction about it is overreaction. better to see susan li on this. you have other names to wait on. >> reporter: most are reporting on february the 2nd, in a few days or so. right now i would call it a bit of a give back, you have seen the best start to a year for tech stocks nasdaq in particular since 2001. neil: good point. >> reporter: keep in mind what
12:16 pm
happened in turn. you are probably expert what happened later on that year. 8% up first three weeks in the year? people will take it. microsoft is being blamed for a bit of a tech giveback. earning were not that bad, they were pretty much in line with estimates sure, slowest quarterly sales growth in six years. we expected that. azure put in 30% plus growth rates which is pretty much what we anticipated, right? the stock initially popped in after-hours. you got guidance on the earnings call. deceleration in azure is what they're calling for. growth will decelerate, slow down by four to five percentage point in quarter. i counted at least seven brokerage price cuts after the announcement. city group raised microsoft target, 282. jpmorgan going down to 265. $40 in upside, not bad. a bit more softness when it comes to cloud growth. that is ticking down other technology names today like amazon. as you know. aws, amazon web services biggest
12:17 pm
cloud player by far. they have 40% plus market share. bernstein, ubs cutting price targets on amazon down to 121.18. i don't think that is terrible. keep everything in context. amazon is up 14% first three weeks of this year. double-digit rallies for alphabet, meta, even apple close to the 10% gain so far. tesla tonight could be a game-changer if they do better than expected. neil: sure. >> we know what we'll get. we're expecting profit 3.8 billion. record deliveries announced for next year. neil: they had cut prices. some of that will materialize in earnings, right? >> also, what about the five to 10 billion-dollar stock buyback elon musk promised for this year? will he be on the earnings call which is interesting, especially staring at 65% down on the stock price, there is a lot to answer for. as i mentioned apple reports on
12:18 pm
february 2nd, amazon as well, alphabet. so that is a big day. expectations are set so low it could be ease for stocks and companies to beat. neil: well-put, susan, thank you very much for that. we like to put these in perspective, when you see numbers out here, somebody switch around, i admit other business networks, ah. we try to step back when we can, just to put it in some perspective. scott martin, very good at that, kingsview asset management cio. susan spelled out a lot of big names we're still waiting to hear from. maybe they can change the sentiment built around microsoft. it is interesting in the microsoft numbers, good reaction first, people chewing own it. almost if they wanted to find an excuse to say all right, this early pop in technology was overdone. how do you feel about that? >> well, i feel you're right. like the spectacular susan li said i think it is about expectations these days, neil, more than it is actual fundamentals and i believe that behavior you're talking about you saw in microsoft yesterday,
12:19 pm
i think frankly the behavior we'll see in tesla after-hours today will be exactly that. these expectations of things maybe still being too good eneven though we should all be expecting things a little less sanguine than they have in the past few quarters. finding a reason as you said to sell these stocks. as you see tesla into earnings calls, microsoft price action, you will see with a lot of tech stock price action, my friend, these are reasons to buy these stocks or opportunity to do that. as i've been telling you the last few months, i think stocks, especially in the tech space are absolutely overdone. for that matter if you're a long term investor this is where you should be picking them up. neil: i know you weren't born at the time, scott, i remember when internet boom went bust -- >> '99. neil: there was theory known of the guys would survive, cream of the crop, ebays, amazons, microsofts, some thriving today.
12:20 pm
pets.com and lot of others went by the wayside. i am wondering whether we're going through a shakeout here? that the big names won't be as impacted as some ancillary names? how do you play that? >> yeah. i read a lot of reports on those olden times, what amazing time to be alive sounds like, seems like. neil indicative of the process, what happens during recessions, what happens during bear markets. a lot of these companies, some of them go away and they frankly should probably because they're mismanaged, they don't have a lot of cash flow, they're heavy in debt. they obviously don't have what it takes to get through a downturn. unfortunately some of those companies out there like the fubos of the world, not just picking on them, a lot have come down, smile direct club is another one, these are high-flyers man, pushing 80, 90, 100 bucks at one point in 2020 and 2021. now they are pennies on the
12:21 pm
dollar. companies like in 1999, through turn they can't make it. in the next expansion that comes, new companies pop up to do their thing. that is just the cycle. neil: on technology names as an aggregate, if you buy something that mimicked the nasdaq 100, or etf, obviously what's in them you wouldn't give up on them as an asset class? >> i would not and i would not give up on myself. i'm like the nasdaq 100 at times. i like adobe here, neil. adbe company got trashed last year, overly so i think that is good name. neil: always good see you, scott martin. >> kingsview asset management. the nasdaq has shaved about a amount it was earlier. still down. all the averages are. we're keeping an eye on it. we'll keep an eye on latest documents cases. who has what documents and when. the latest issue former vice president mike pence, guess what i have some documents

biden documents fallout. he came across what he called a small number in about four boxes. he said they may be classified. his team secured the documents in a safe, alert the national archives. handed the documents over to the doj and alerted congress. a pence attorney tells fox because of the abnormal hurried from the trump to biden administrations officials failed to review the documents primarily from the vp's residence at naval observatory. pence paint ad different picture in an earlier this month. >> before we left the white house the attorneys on my staff went through all the documents at at white house, our offices there and at at vice president's residence to insure that any documents that needed to be turned over to the national archives, including classified document were turned over. so we went through a very careful process in that record.
12:28 pm
>> reporter: former president trump has jumped to pence's defense saying on truth social, mike pence is an innocent man. he never did anything knowingly dishonest in his life. leave him along. oversight committee chair said pence's handling of this is better than bidens. quote he full ai greed to cooperate with con he aggressional oversight any questions we have. former vice president pence's transparency stands in contrast to president biden's staff to continue to withhold from congress and the american people. they are not weighing in whether the department of justice should appoint a special counsel in this case. they're broadly refusing to answer any questions about bide's document kerfuffle, neil. neil: i do know, as you were first reporting, jacqui this weekend. neither his wilmington home or rehobeth vacation home, does that have anything to do with this? >> reporter: could mean there are more searches planned. we don't know, they have refused
12:29 pm
to tell us. any question we asked they refuse to weigh in on this. i will say about the rehobeth home, according to prior statements from biden's personal attorneys they have gone through that place. if the fbi and doj go back there to redouble the work, that would be a new development. there are questions whether they might go to the university of delaware or any other locations tied to the president. we don't know. neil: got it. great reporting as always, appreciate it, jacqui at the white house. let's go to marc lotter, former press secretary to the vice president. very calm individual. i always marveled at marc. >> good good to be back. neil: were you surprised that the vice-president said oops, i got them too? >> i was surprised they were thorough or so meticulous but no, i used to joke the presidential transition was the largest corporate hostile take over in global history.
12:30 pm
it is also that true going out. every so often you might miss something here or there. from the sound of it, these boxes were sealed never reopened from the time they left the vice president's residence in washington to the time they went to the home in indiana. neil: i had on my show yesterday, mark, andy card, former george w. bush's former chief of staff. you don't understand how they handle the moving to another administration. they pack up quickly. not the vice presidents, cabinet secretaries, a bunch of of assistants, ramming flipping stuff into boxes getting them in a truck, there is very little time to sort of digest all of this. is that true? if that is true, that alone could be worrisome, in the pros of clearing desks you're clearing classified documents and people who shouldn't even be seeing the cover? >> it is remarkable.
12:31 pm
the whole process the general services administration goes through. this about this, president of the united states regardless of party is president until 12 noon. the oval office is theirs, vice president's office is theirs. if for some reason we were under national emergency, it falls upon them until 12:01. it remains fully functional for the current occupant. until the new person takes the oath of office. i remember walking down the parade down pennsylvania avenue with the vice president, inauguration day, 7:00 at night you go into the white house first time. the new office is set up ready to go for you. neil: that is so wild. i guess it comes back, i don't know how you feel about this, marc, not so of what mike pence knew it when he knew it or joe biden what he knew, when he knew it, donald trump knew it when he knew it, other people have access to it, not intentionally, giving benefit of the doubt clearing papers but their eyes are not supposed to
12:32 pm
see this stuff. classified documents are supposed to be seen in a safe venue and returned. that is clearly not happening. maybe it is the sheer volume of these documents so how do we correct this? >> the sheer volume is part of the problem. i've seen classified reports with newspaper clippings in them. what is classified about the a newspaper clipping? it is in the public already. you have issue about that. there is large issue of overglassification in government. the higher level of classification is, the tighter the scrutiny is. it gets to a point where it gets to certain levels it needs to come in a locked briefcase. only be opened and accessed inside the most secure of rooms. then the further down the classification structure you go the looseer those standards are. we don't know what the documents were in any of the cases not just with the former vice president. so you know, it sounds great and scary to say classified. we need to know what it was before we start thinking why
12:33 pm
wasn't somebody waiting there to take it back, to put it back into a locked briefcase? neil: i had chris sununu on my show, the new hampshire governor, might be entertaining a run for president, i'm not sure, but certainly sounds like that he made a point this wouldn't happen to me. i wouldn't be just carelessly handling documents or wouldn't write a book need the documents or somehow taken them out and use them for those purposes. it is already become a campaign issue for candidates who are trying to make it such. what do you think? >> well, you know, i mean that is easy to say when you're not the president or the vice president of the united states and when you're going back, all of the information, i mean i just marveled at the amount of physical information, not just classified, but written that came across my desk every day when i was in the white house. it was mind-boggling. to go back when you want to write a book, something along those lines, you do need access to the notes, things you previously saw to make sure
12:34 pm
you're remembering things correctly. i don't, i don't, i don't question anyone that would need to go back in the course of writing their book or something along those lines to see that classified information and when it comes to the other handling of it, in many cases depending on what it was, literally it would just be thrown into a burn bag and destroyed by specialists with the military that deal with these issues on a daily basis. so it is impossible to say that you know, as you're scouring up all of your papers in the scramble to get out and get in, that something doesn't get jumbled in the mix. neil: got it. we'll see how this all sorts out. i have a feeling there are other little revelations to come. what do i know. always good to see you. marc lotter, former press secretary of the former vice president of the united states mike pence. the dow is down 214 points. we're getting constantly graded by you folks you reached out to us. we're flatter many are.

depend on the email or tweet. january writes other shows and hosts are more informative and entertaining assuming you want feedback, you can't hold a candle to varney. that's fine. we have someone else putting this in some perspective and saying you know what? i absolutely love your show. your sense of humor makes me laugh out loud. ignore the haters. they may want to find something more productive to do with their negative energy. that was my sentiment exactly. a lot of negative energy wasted on me. i'm not even including all the ones that had the nerve to say i might be five or six pounds overweight. yeah, you know who you are. we'll have more after this.
