if they're too big to fail, they're too big to exist. and let's start right with that proposition. >> you've described what other people have called the financialization of the american economy, the growth in the size and the power of the financial industry. what does that term mean to you, financialization? and why should we care that it's happened? >> because what it means is that a massive amount of resources are being devoted, being allocated or being channeled into pure financial speculation that has no gain to society as a whole, has no real economic contribution to the process by which gnp is created, gdp is created and growth occurs. by 2007, 40% of all the profits in the american economy were coming from finance companies. 40%. historically it was 15%. so the financialization means that as we attracted more and more resources and capital, and we made speculation easier and easier, and we funded it with almost free overnight money, managed and manipulated by the fed, that's how the economy got financialized. but that is a casino.

banks that are too big to fail are too big to exist. but we also got to look at what banks and what corporations are too big to be held accountable. because if they're too big to be held accountable, how are we going to have a functioning economy that allows workers and everyday people to get their fair share. but also a democracy that flourishes and allows people to engage and have real power and decision making. >> but in the spirit of milton friedman, one of your former chicago residents, the only accountability corporations have in the free-market system is to make as much profit as they can for their shareholders. >> and we have to change that. >> how would you change it? >> i think there's two things. one, you know, when corporations were originally created in america, they actually had to demonstrate a public purpose that you were going to serve. and you could make profits. but you also had to say, "we're going to do this good thing for the public." so how do we move back towards that? but there's also an interesting movement tha

eric, a big win, a big night. there's no denying that. but we've had a few of these. then the oxygen, something gets sucked out of the balloon. how significant do you guys think tonight is for your campaign? >> well, it's 21 states now, piers that governor romney has won. 21 states and territories. he has half the delegates he needs to secure the nomination. if you look at the math and if you understand how delegates are allocated and you understand the upcoming contests on the calendar, there really is no opportunity for mitt romney's opponents at this point to make up the ground that they need to make up to overtake him in the delegate count. so we feel very confident. >> newt gingrich has come out with a soon to be cheerily statement tonight saying that basically you can't have a nominee that out spends his rivals 7-1. i didn't quite understand why you couldn't? i must say. it seems to me that the one thing you have to concede about mitt romney, whether you agree with him or not, is that he has run the best campaign. he has the most money. he has the best infrastru

many big banks were the big winners today, with the exception of goldman sachs and citi. investors gobbled up bank stocks. there were also big moves in insurance stocks, retailers and gold miners. let's start with the k.b.w. bank index, which tracks 24 of the biggest financial firms. it rose 1.3% as investors had a chance to react to generally positive results from the federal reserve's stress tests. bank of america was the biggest mover in the dow today. shares of the nation's biggest bank rose more than 4%, hitting levels not seen since last summer. as we reported, the bank passed its stress test, a relief to many investors. american express shares jumped almost $2, or 3.5%, after it announced a stock buyback worth $4 billion. the shares are now trading at pre-financial crisis levels. but the fed's stress test results took a toll on many insurance stocks. investors now fear the industry's biggest names will face tighter capital requirements. met life was the biggest loser in the s&p 500 index. the shares fell $2.30, or almost 6%, after its plan for a buyback was rejecte

liz, how big a problem for the president?k it could be a problem for the president, and obviously they're worried enough about it that you saw him talking about it in his weekly address. he's talking about calling for oil companies to improve efficiency. newt gingrich has been hammering this issue in the last couple weeks, and he's been really. >> chris: 2.50 a gallon gasoline. >> he's mocking president obama as president algae in a way that only newt can. there are some indications he's picking up movement in the polls. they're a bit all over the place, so we'll see. we'll see if this message really works. i think on the other hand i will say we've had so much volatility in gas prices over the last several years that i feel like consumers to some extent have seen this movie before. although no one likes higher gas prices, i wonder if there's a bit of a cushion where people think it's up high now, it's seasonal, it may go back down. i don't think there's quite the sense of its up high and it will never go back down necessaril

a big move lower. the gold trust exchange traded fund. why don't you think this is a buying opportunity? >> well, if the federal reserve chairman has actually taken quantitative easing off the table, this is a strong backing for the uds dollar, and obviously, the relationship between gold and the u.s. dollar has been a prominent one over 12 months. and secondarily, until you can buy a big mac and frefrp frys with a exceled to coin, it doesn't have a place in our portfolio. >> tom: how about grains? you like grains. dba. the trend has been lower over the past 12 months. are you looking >> we've had low carry out across the grain complex combineed with warm weather in south america. at these lower levels, we're interested in the longer term picture for food. >> you still see dmroebl demand increasing? >> i think that's right, and that synchronizes with the global recovery as a backdrop. that's really why and where we see food, and does have san appropriate place in the portfolio. >> tom: natural gas inventories have been at record levels. u

recovery is on track. 203 points is a big number to refer in one day. >> apple making a big announcements afternoon. effect is talking about the ipad 3. what are the rumors here? what are we expecting? >> we have to wait until 1:00. that is when the big announcement is coming from san francisco from apple. we're talking about a couple of things at this point. it could just be the latest update to the ipad or perhaps ipad hd which would be kind of like a high definition great resolution ipad that would run on the 4g network. are you guys going to pay more money to have that faster network. the most common ipad sold is the cheaper wi-fi version at this point. maybe there will be an update to apple tv. here is the thing. this will get you so angry. if you bought a house back in 2002, you probably paid $230,000. instead of doing that, if you just bought apple shares and held onto them, your apple shares with that same investment would be worth $10 million right now. your house would be worth $280,000. >> i hay sense of where you were going with this. we've been talking about it in the studio

three yards and a cloud of dust. >> big, big delegate win tonight. this was important for us because we're counting delegates between idaho, massachusetts, virginia and santorum's problems in ohio. so but it's not dramatic. and it's not a coalescing in any way shape or form around mitt romney. it's kind of a grudging sort of -- across the finish line. >> he has a terrific organization compared to the three other opponents and he's got a lot more money. >> he's got a lot better organization and he did run once before. he's a much more mature candidate than then. >> the fact that he was on the virginia ballot and santorum was not and newt gingrich was not and the fact that santorum couldn't even get on all of the ballots in ohio. >> absolutely. i think that's right. and santorum continues to have a campaign that's underfinanced and not as organized as it should be. but the other thing that, wolf, that's starting to happen is that president obama is starting to get much more directly involved in campaigning almost directly against these guys. what's pre

eric, a big win, a big night for you guys. >> it's terrific.atified and i think it's another sign that the republican party is uniting behind mitt romney candidacy. >> is it time seriously for newt gingrich and/or ron paul or both of them to consider stepping down? >> look, that's a very personal decision. i'm not going to make that for them. i understand about the emotion and the hard work and the sweat that goes into a campaign, they have been at it for a long time. both rick santorum, newt gingrich and ron paul, they're decent people. they have run honorable campaigns. at some point the reality is going to set in that mitt is the all but certain nominee. i can tell you what mitt romney did four years ago when he found himself in the similar situation running against john mccain. after super tuesday, john mccain didn't have the delegates to become the nominee, but he was on track to get the delegates and mitt romney made the decision to step aside. he stepped aside because he thought it was good for the country. we were at war in iraq at the
