>> great to see you, courtney. and my initial reaction is, this is putting cold water on big megamergers that banks might be trying to get through. this is not the first time that the ftc under president biden has blocked a merger of this size. blocked some other ones. and what does this mean for deal-making moving forward? all of my sources in the industry, no one expected this to be one that the ftc would want to make an example out of, and when we started to see some inklings come out about this, they were considering a lawsuit, i mean, there was a lot of shock in the industry, you know? so, what does this mean for deals moving forward? and also just a lot of surprises. this is what the ftc is up to. >> yeah, i think i was pretty surprised, as well, that this is one they went after, but then it seems like the market warmed up to the idea, because stocks -- both stocks are sort of hardly moving in reaction, so, i think many people thought this was coming down the pike. i find it very interesting, when you would l

5 to 2, i think 2 is challenging back to are higher rates ultimately net good for the consumer, courtney is right to signal those that are actually net positive in terms of their balance sheet. i think it's the opposite for much of, call it the middle class, even middle class baby boomers, so people that don't have a lot of savings. what's interesting about this whole theory and this conversation is, yesterday we were saying what happened to the banks. shouldn't the banks be the beneficiaries of this same thesis in terms of net interest income, their ability to borrow here and lend higher in a higher rate environment it was a great day for banks, by the way. i don't think there's anything particularly wrong with banks as long as credit doesn't fall apart here it's a fascinating time. i do think it's a great time for the 60/40 portfolio it's a great time for people to have an income portfolio that gives them an opportunity to weather good times and bad and make money fixed income is for the first time alive as an asset class to invest in. >> our next guest sees accelerating economy for th

so, courtney, what's your trade here?e of the big key here is what's been happening in the cocoa and chocolate space, sugar price, huge price increases. cocoa tripled just this year alone. that's about 10% of the sales or cost of their sales, which is going to be an effect on their bottom line. so i think that's really what investors want to see are they now again having to increase their prices. b, how are consumers reacting to that. i am optimistic. they have a really good balance sheet. they increased their dividend 11 years in a row, all bodes well in this kind of environment is the stock you want. i actually would take them here. i think what's interesting about their story, too, is about a third of their sales are in emerging market countries with large populations, increasing incomes. they see snacks as a convenience and also there's this big trend happening in the u.s. with things like glp 1s and weight loss. that's happening less in the emerging markets. that will benefit them. i would take the mondelez. >>> fina

we will do be joined by courtney. what do we have? breaking news this evening that we have been trying to get more detail on. here is what we know so far. according to iran's semi state media, they are saying there have been a series of explosions in iran, and while a lot of reviewers may have heard of that city, it is because it is where some of iran's critical nuclear infrastructure exists. so far it seems that these explosions are not specifically in isfahan where the nuclear facility is but are nearby. now, u.s. officials are not saying anything about this. neither are israeli officials but, of course, this comes when there has been a back and forth between iran and israel and threats from both sides. on april 1st, the israeli military struck a site in damascus, which was later determined to be some type of site killing a number of senior iranian officials including a senior general in the iranian revolutionary guard. of course we know that last weekend i run retaliated with pretty great force, about 300 projectile missiles and dr

i want to bring in nbc news correspondent, courtney >>. what are you hearing right now? >> so we are trying to get any kind of details about this operation that israel carried out inside of iran. all we know is iranian state media is saying that there were a number of explosions near issa hahn. of course, our viewers may be familiar with that city because there is a critical nuclear facility there. but at this point, we don't have any indications that that is, that there was any kind of specific a strike or attack on the nuclear facility, it just nu happens to be in the area around there. of course we are asking questions. but as of now we have no indication that this was actually an attack on the ly nuclear facility itself. now the u.s., as we heard from gabe, u.s. officials are not confirming any of this. we are hearing that the prime minister netanyahu's office is also not commenting on this. but steph, the reality is, we have been waiting for something like this to happen all week and that is for the israelis to respond to this massive volley of, massive attack that

that is william courtney, a senior fellow at the rand think tank in washington. we very much appreciate your time today. welcome. now, part of what president is. lensky says he will use american funds for is for to fine ukraine's orders. drone technology has dramatically changed the bottle for the skies and seeds, but on ukraine's land border with russia. the countries armed forces are focused on a farm or traditional form of defense against a looming russian offensive of the modern wolves, and may be high tech. but trenches are still proving vital in ukraine. kit is hoping all this will allow ukraine's army to hold back. russian forces president. so lensky says, ukraine is building 2000 kilometers of 40 vacations in 3 lines. this is part of the, in the most line of defense. and it's located in the sunni region, which is a 560 kilometer long border with russia. work on defense structures begun here last year, but intensified in february. the regional capital of see me is also in circled with defense lines. local sources say the confidence that any surprise russia

up next, courtney, let's talk about caesar's. target suggests a nearly 37% rally in sell-side analysts are correct. what's your take on caesar's? >> i would stay on the sidelines of caesar's. i like a lot of the casino operators, but when you're looking at gaming demand, a lot of that is much more abroad than it is here in the u.s., specifically macao and singapore. and some of your other casino operators do have that exposure. caesar's doesn't. they also did have a recent merger with el dorado, which i think longer term is going to be a benefit for them, but what happened is they had to take on a lot of debt for that, so although they do have good operating margins, a majority that is going just to pay off interest payments, which is likely to weigh on their shares for a little while there. >> all right. courtney garcia, let's go to the last one of the day, and that is united health, unh. >> united health, i would be a buyer on here. this also has been under pressure this year, like the other three. most recently, they did have

. >>> let's get right to courtney kube. u.s. officials confirming iran launched weaponized droned.t could take hours to reach targets. what is israel's ability to intercept them? >> reporter: that's right, jose. u.s. officials expect iran will launch various types of drones in this operation. now, what they expect most of them to be what are called one-way attack drones. specifically the shahead models. packed with explosives that detonate when they hit a target. some of these drones can fly over 1500 miles and carry hundreds of pounds of explosives and only fly about 100 miles per hour, but they also fly lower, which can make them harder to intercept. now u.s. officials tell nbc news that the intention is for the u.s. military to shoot down some of these drones and even these ballistic missiles with u.s. assets that are already in iraq, syria and at sea if they come within range. jose? >> courtney kube, thank you. >>> i want to bring in kristen welker, moderator of "meet the press." president biden rushed back to the white house from delaware for emergency national security meetin

courtney: thank you, mr. speaker. mr. speaker, a couple days ago on saturday in the city of hartford, connecticut, the capital city of state of connecticut, 60,000 people gathered to celebrate the parade that was held in honor of the uconn men's college basketball team, which, again, just a mere week ago on monday swept over the university of purdue, a very good team, and secured back-to-back national titles. mr. speaker, that's the first time that's happened since 2007 when florida university was able to do back-to-back titles. college basketball has changed a lot since then. the new rules allow players to transfer from one university to another with no loss of eligibility. the nba continues to recruit even freshmen who play in the ranks of college basketball. the ability of a university to repeat because of all these factors that undermine continuity was really, i think, extraordinary that the uconn men were able to -- after losing three players from last year's team, to the nba, losing other players to the portal was s
