it's got fda approval, it is moving into health in a new way.ople are buying these things not just because it tells the time, or whatever else, there's huge segments. that's why i think apple will become a $2 trillion company in five years. the health market... for them it will be removed the other bits and let's just have this. the segments they haven't tapped as much before... but nobody has tapped this in the sense it has fda approval, it will alert emergency services... the complaint was they weren't innovative enough, i think their share price will double in the next five years. but the reaction was interesting, shares went down over 1%. with apple we always expect even more than they give. i spend more time on this thing than i do with my wife and children. how can you confess that? it is undervalued, it should be priced a lot higher. i should be priced a lot higher. i should say i'm an apple shareholder. this should be worth a lot more. interesting. dave lee, ourtech correspondent, said health companies could be buying these by the bucket

the real plays on the biomedical side going through the fda. are applications for epilepsy but that is the tip of the iceberg. community have never studied this yet. this is frontier science and even those who know about it will tell you there is a lot more to learn. we don't know a lot more than we do know. we do know, from an efficacy standpoint, is the wellness side. caroline: there is $70 billion of market cap at the moment and, romaine, it seems it is held up by a few companies. romaine: it seems i collect a promise. i wonder if this is all on the medical side or recreational because a lot of the play in that could market is on the recreational side then it is on the other. todd: i think it is a fair amount of semantics. a lot of people have been self-medicating for so many years that the lines between recreational and medical are blurred. there are certainly going to be -- a pathwayations through the fda. the only way a government could take the bite they want is through the fda. there will be two markets. the valuations we are talking ab

you have been critical of the fda in basically asking some of the major manufacturers of vape productse up with regulations you characterize that as asking the fox to recommend plans for guarding the henhouse. isn't it smart policy in a way to ask -- to get industries involvement in the policy making process one way or another not to design the recommendations necessarily, but to have input into what is ultimate ultimately determined? >> i don't disagree that they will have input in the final product. i just think what you have to be aware of is an approach that leads to self-regulation presents a couple problems one, there will always be a segment of the market that doesn't comply with the self-regulation. look at the market right now you can go to the internet and find many, many products that are directly appealing to kids second of all, if you allow complete self-regulation, what you allow is really a pr stunt what we want is universal, uniform rules, that keep these products out of the hands of kids. >> what does that look like to you, products marketed to kids >> looks like a web

fda reviewers refused to approve of a beneficial drug, not any people are going to know about it. in fact, the numerous that could have been approved or even acknowledged by the public, we are turning to the topic of digital technology, there are some legitimate downsides we can clearly see. i don't think we should use that as an excuse to not look at the benefits that could happen by introducing new technologies. instead of innovation as a problem of the past, i think government should view innovation as potential. regulatory humility, it means making an honest assessment of where the market is, recognizing the government can't always predict where it is going to go, and that it should not try to micromanage the future, and instead just try to get through the red tape, and let the market sorted out. what kind of red tape are we talking about when it comes to the fcc? i'll give you one example of what i deal with on a daily basis. i inherited rules of the fcc that demanded a whole bunch of companies maintain the copper networks that have been in the ground, in some cases, for 100

joining us is fda commissioner dr.th more on why the agency decided to do this dr. gottlieb, thank you for being here today >> thank you >> you've talked in the past about some of the teen epidemic problems that come to this what is the situation and what do you describe as an epidemic >> well, we have access to early data that we're going to make public very soon that shows us the proportion of high school students using e-cigarettes is nothing short of an epidemic in my view. and it requires steps to take dramatic action to curtail this. and we've seen e-cigarette adult smokers trying to migrate off the products who presumably don't have all the rinks associated with combustion, but don't come with the expense of putting a whole generation of kids hooked on nicotine and tobacco products unfortunately to narrow that for kids we're going to have to remove that for adults the key is removing the flavors from the product >> that makes sense. it never made sense the argument that adults who are trying to quit smoking woul

lauren: fda's taking a harder look at flavored e-cigarettes.reporter: because teenagers are smoking these and the fda said it will consider banning all flavored e-cigarettes in the united states because of the teenagers using the products has become an epidemic. the fda sent letters to companies which make flavored cigarette refills seeking comments on ways to reduce the number of teen smokers. the 60 day process and at the end. cheryl: we have a lot more coming up. downgraded, but not losing steam. hurricane florence was hours away from making landfall. >> this is going to be one of the biggest ones to ever hit our country. life is the absolute highest priority. cheryl: janice dean will have the latest on the storms brand-new path and remember the cyclist who was fired after flipping off the trump motorcade? now she's hoping to score a new gig from her vulgar response. the dow jones is up 31. we are watching storm stocks and you are watching "fbn:am" i needed legal advice for my shop. that's when i remembered that my ex-ex- ex-boyfriend actual
