i wanton hear from herb greenberg, too. >> yes. >> herb wrote the story last week. he was on talking about this. he was negative on it. >> these numbers -- >> where are you now, herb? >> herb, where are you? >> bring it on. >> we want to hear from you, herb. >> come on back. >> e-mail us, herb. >> laguna beach or wherever he is. >> surfing. >> herb and his house cam. put down the spaghetti o's, herb, and call us. use the #bull or #bear and we'll have the results at the end of the show. >>> let's get a market flash. dom? >> check out shares of netflix. just getting whacked again today. one of the momentum stocks down 4% in trading. the stock is down for the 20th time in the last 23 trading days since hit an all-time high of $458 at the beginning of march. it's lost a quarter of its value. so when things turn from momentum they turn and they turn hard. back over to you. >> dom, thanks. you guys think that even as momentum turns and there are a huge chunk of stocks that are under that mom umbrella that the rest of the market can just be fine? coast along. hitting new h

herb, you're going to love this. estimates, eps is forecast to rise by 1% because of share repurchases, because of share repurchases. >> when is low quality and everybody knows the big story is ultimately it's not this quarter, it's going forward and it's the iphone 6 and will it jump start sales? whether subsidy declines at the big -- the big phone company, big mobile operators will affect things. >> margins expect to be 37%, 38%, look for various shipments of the units and investors want to hear about the cash are. they going to say anything about a buyback, about more repurchases? barcl barclay's analyst on our air said why have we not heard what they are doing with cash yet? could that mean they will bundle it with bad news after the close so that's interesting. >> if you look at the way the stock trades, not a good trade on earnings day or after it. i want to say six out of the last seven quarters in terms of earning days they have been down in terms of the stock price. >> the past ten quarters, the average move

i'm not used to gazing at herb's beauty. >> it happens to me all the time. >> it was amazing. >> herb greenberg is here. >> he is here, distracting me. we want to talk about some of the potential takeout deals. what else can be a target? let's start off here. let's start with you, where are you seeing as potential targets here? >> this is fascinating stuff. just a couple quick points. what is driving some of these deals is not necessarily having products for the sake of filling your pipeline, but also what i call the management arbitrage. what does it mean? people are talking about bill ackman, but the real person actually instigating some of these deals and transforming the landscape is mike pearson, the ceo of valeant. this man has bought 38 companies since 2008. he's defined companies that have high margin products, integrated them, cut costs, and what he's done is got to the next deal. which means we're going to see companies that are special pharmaceutical, companies that have orphan drug status on some areas look ophthalmology, even dentistry, these are the companies that will b

anti-herb. you wave green flags. he waves red. >> herb is only red. the data has behaved as expected meaning it bounced back from march. i want to give you seven data points that rebounded we've gotten all this week. let's go through them. ism, all there. i want to concentrate on only two. look at the ism service, one of the employment component and look at the vehicle sales. you'll see in there the pattern we were waiting for. also you see something else. there's the, which one is that? services component. there's the bounceback. the negative part of this, the little reddish flag right there is that it didn't come back to the level it was in january. maybe it's on the way back there, and we did have a little bit of weather in march. one of the things i want to show you, the vehicle sales number. do we have that next? there it is. there's the bounceback, depressed, january, february. roaring back above expectations. again, you might have hoped for more, given how depressed it was those three months, but we did get the bounceback we were looking for. w

let's bring in contributor herb greenberg. art, you've been around the cnbc family for a long time as well. and lynisten, you can comment whether or not it's true or not, this market seems difficult, at least from my perspective, doing this a long time, to understand because there's so many ex-term factors out there right now. or is maybe that just recency bias and things have always been this complicated? >> well, sully, that's a great question. if you look at what we're going through right now, it is a major shift from a focus on fund mentals, a focus on earnings, on monetary policy to jumping from flare-up to flare-up on geopolitics, right? we've got the yew jaukraine and it's settled. i think we've always had this. it's just when we cycle through it and the market does things that are difficult to understand because it's caused by external factors. so i think as you look at the history of markets and say to yourself, what is it that stops a bull market? it's one of two things. the fed starts to tighten or there's an extern

sometimes people sell, herb, because you're afraid. sometimes the market goes down because there's no bids. >> here's what i found out. >> there's no buyers out there, which is different than selling pressure. >> which is exactly what i was saying especially when you remove the short sellers from the market because they've been squeezed out. but there's one thing i've learned in watching this. and you know i always like to watch the stocks that are going to fall, right? i've watched these things, and at times the pendulum swings too hard both ways, right? and it swings too hard when they fall as well. the only thing you have to ask yourself is, is there a structural change that is going to cause these things to go further? in other words, is qe gone? are rates going to rise? is the economy going to get worse? what will this earnings season bring? we have seen so many times that in earnings situations, we could see these earnings come out, we'll have two weeks of good earnings. >> listen, herb. okay? sometimes you need a hangover to rem

. >> herb, part of the problem is, as some of these companies have come back to earth, as andy says, you still aren't seeing any buyers ready to pile into any of these names. >> what are you supposed to do? look, there's an interesting comment from peter atwater. he reminded me, said price declines always start with the most extreme case and work backwards. he said this reminds him of housing in 2005, and tech in 2000. so, you know, you have to sometimes think we just -- by the way, scott, the data you saw on people coming in shorting right now would sort of confirm that. >> are you saying there were no natural buyers out there for the momentum stocks, herb? >> well, what i'm saying -- i said it yesterday and i did work and came back with more information. if you go back the last three months, and with tesla as the exception, because tesla is still up 39% for the past three months, it's down 13% for the past month, but if you look at a lot of other heavily shorted names, man, they are getting clobbered over the three-month period, which tells me if the shorts are squeezed out, there

but even this simple herb has found itself drawn into the ongoing israeli-palestinian conflict. for israel has outlawed the traditional practice of picking wild za'atar - in order it's claimed - to protect the species of plant. but in a land disputed by two peoples, even a simple conservation measure can have consequences... as i was to find out the following day, when i travelled north to the galilee region, to meet with an arab who's been caught out by the law... >> each year on independence day, i take my mother to collect za'atar near her old village. on this occasion i was gathering a small amount for her, when a guard came up to me and told me what i was doing was against the law. he took me to his car where another man had already filled in some papers. he told me to sign them, and said i had a fine for 660 shekels. my mother is 86 years old. when she realised what was going on, she got very angry: why should we pay 660 shekels for picking za'atar on our own ancestors' land? she told the guard that in that case she was going to go and pick 660 shekels worth of za'atar her
