>> well, the relatives have been in the focus for the last two days after this terrible accident and in these for sure darkest hours in the history of the group, and we have tried as much as we can to take care of them. we have sent counselors and we tried to be with them all around the clock, and we also managed to get the information to them before they found out from the media which is a sign of respect which is highly appreciated. >> reporter: how do you explain what happened? i mean, it seems something that is so out of the question, and how do you explain something that could happen in a pilot that was trained in your company and who flew for your company? >> to tell you the truth, we have no explanation at this point. and to this point, we have been so proud to select pilots and training them and having them train in this way, and having something like this is incomprehensible and it is a case that every safety system in the world cannot completely rule out. that is what we will take as a explanation if you want to call it that. >> reporter: but might there signs or could there have been indications that the person might have been mentally unstable? >> no shgs, the pilot has passed all of the tests, all of the medical exams, and we have a lufthansa, and the reporting system where crew can report without being punished their own problems or problems of others, and none of that was used in this case. and all of the safety nets that we are so proud of have not been use used in this case. >> and so for now, you must be gathering information about this co-pilot andreas lubitz and what have you learn ded? >> well, we won't answer this, because of the law, but of course course, we are looking into things, and even this is a single case, and we will now go back and see what we can do to even improve our system further, because lufthansa safety has always been number one, and that is why we do our utmost to bring it to the higher level after this terrible accident. >> reporter: i know that you have a long process where people go through stages, but are there changes that need to be made for the process? >> again, this is a terrible single case, and we have decades of selecting pilots, and training the pilots in phoenix, arizona, and qualitying the people to fly the airplanes up to the 620 that we have now, and we will take this now to take it for better ideas and improvements but it will take time and this again, we should not rule from this single case that a system which has worked for so many decades is not as close to perfect as kitit can be. >> reporter: how big of a blow is this not just for the airline but for the credibility of the air looin airline, because people fly lufthansa, because they feel they are in good hand and the airplanes are very well maintain the and the pilots have the best training and are very professional? >> well all of these reasons to fly lufthansa are still valid, and we are putting in training and maintenance, and we are doing whatever we can to improve the safety level, and again, after this terrible accident maybe feelings have been chang changed, but the professional commitment has not changed a single bit. >> reporter: but you accept that some people will be feeling uneasy about getting on the planes at this point? >> we understand emotionals, but for us as professionals we have to let you understand that we are not touched with the professionalisms, and we are not going to be touched, and we will not let it be be touched in the future. >> reporter: and so in the united states there has to be a person who has to go into the cockpit if a pilot leaves such as at a ten dant the.-- attendant. >> and that is not in all cases for the united states is my understanding. but the global thing that is most accepted procedure that a pilot can leave the cockpit for personal needs which is very quick, and this is something that we will look into it. >> reporter: are will you make changes? is. >> we will look into that with the experts of other airlines i am sure. >> reporter: what do you know exactly happened? some of it you have said that apparently the captain was locked out of the cockpit. what do you know exactly what happened afterwards? >> we know the same thing that the public knows from the statements of the french investigation office where apparently after the pilot, after the captain has left the cockpit, he has tried to regain the access and knocks on the door according to the french authorities it was not lock ded open the way it was supposed to be and that is a clear indication that it was the co-pilot for the pilot to return. >> and no clear indication that there might have been a meddle cal emergency, and some other event for the pilot to be incapacitated and you believe that the co-pilot deliberately steered the pilot into the mountain mountain. >> and we have a procedure where the pilot opens the consciousness, and a way for the door to open up the inside unless they block it and this is apparently what happened here. >> reporter: and he blocked it from the inside as the captain was trying to get back inside? >> from what we know he did not allow access to the cockpit is what the french authorities have so far informed us about. >> reporter: what did the captain do to get back in? can the captain get back in at this stage of the game? >> after 9/11, we have put doors on the cockpits not to be opened with any force or small weapons, so there was no way for the captain to get back into the cockpit in this case the co-pilot was not able to allow access access. >> reporter: how do you break something like this to the relatives of the victims, because now they were grieving and obviously awful for them but now there has to be a certain degree of anger as well? >> well, we have trained psychologist, and people who have done this before and people who do it in a professional way, and supported by the people of lufthansa, and yes, it is incomprehendiblekom precomprehensible to understand what they are going through after losing somebody two days ago. >> reporter: we understand that lufthansa is a robust company, and could this affect your credibility?

works. works! works? works. works. >>> there are plenty of legal questions surrounding the crash of 9525 and especially now that the investigators say that the co-pilot deliberately crashed the plane. let's talk about it with the aviation trial attorneys who represent families of air france 447. thank you, gentlemen, for joining us. mike talk about the legal rights of the grieving families who had loved ones on the flight and obviously, nothing can make up for the loss of life, but this tragedy has thrust a great financial burden on the family and we talked about it earlier, because it goes beyond the emotional stress there is a financial burden on the families. >> yes, before you talk about the legal aspects, there is a human aspect, and my condolences go out to the families. it is different to have a loss of the loved ones, but it is different to have lost them at the hands of a psychopath and so i'm as much at disbelief as anyone else. as the proposition to make a claim against lufthansa and germanwings, that is governed by the montreal convention, and the european conventions, but in short, the carrier is responsible to the families for damages, monetary damages, which of course does not compensate the family for the loved ones, but it is upon tear damages of where the case can be filed. >> and mike, can that take a while, because more specifically, the financial damages here, because it could be a husband who was a breadwinner, and the wife who is a breadwinner, and now lufthansa is goinging to be incrementally giving them money, but still -- >> and under the law, and no question. under the law, both the european regulations as well as the montreal convention, they are mandated to make humanitarian payments to help bridge the gap of what is going on now, and the ultimate adjudication of the claims, and now, we are only two days after the accident and there is all of the leaks as to what people believe happened and some apparently incontrovertible evidence of what happened. so it may be that the cases will resolve through the settlement before a full court procedure. the major issue for the families in the legal standpoint is the ability to where to file the claim. dun under the montreal convention, the majority of the claims would have to be ajude kated against the carrier in germany, and maybe some in spain p. the three families in america could pursue a claim in the united states' court because of the jurisdictions rights they have under the convention, but the measure of the damages and the process is going to be so different. in short a claim in the united states courts based in the american law under the wrongful law of a loved one is quantitatively different than the german courts. >> i have to get stephen in here and what he said and does it make a difference if it is a criminal act as far as compensation compensation? >> well, let me address the criminal act. the criminal act probably assists the families. in the last three criminal prosecutions in europe which is the sky guide prosecutions, and the dhl, and the other midway and the concord which result eded in criminal prosecution, and the sas midair ground crash involved prosecutions and jail terms for the people involved. >> but who do you prosecute here? there is no one to prosecute. >> yes, they did prosecute, and you would think for example in the sas crash, you never would have expected on the ground incursion a criminal prosecution, but they prosecuted the airport managers for not putting sufficient markings on the airport, and the sky guide, the person who was not paying attention served time and then ultimately killed by a family member and then in the sky guide, ultimately, executives were prosecuted because of a faulty tire that was well known and metal strip left on the runway. >> could someone in lufthansa be there? >> and well, you saw a prosecutor called in today and so they are possibly opening up criminal prosecution and it would be monitor it. and even rebalance it. i've been called innovative. revolutionary. and just plain smart. i'd blush at the compliment if i could. but i can't. so. i won't. say hello at intelligent.schwab.com nobody told us to expect it... intercourse that's painful due to menopausal changes it's not likely to go away on its own. so let's do something about it. premarin vaginal cream can help it provides estrogens to help rebuild vaginal tissue and make intercourse more comfortable. premarin vaginal cream treats vaginal changes due to menopause and moderate-to-severe painful intercourse caused by these changes. don't use it if you've had unusual bleeding breast or uterine cancer blood clots, liver problems, stroke or heart attack, are allergic to any of its ingredients or think you're pregnant. side effects may include headache pelvic pain, breast pain vaginal bleeding and vaginitis. estrogens may increase your chances of getting cancer of the uterus, strokes, blood clots or dementia so use it for the shortest time based on goals and risks. estrogen should not be used to prevent heart disease heart attack, stroke or dementia. ask your doctor about premarin vaginal cream. i have the worst cold with this runny nose. i better take something. dayquill cold and flu doesn't treat your runny nose. seriously? alka-seltzer plus cold and cough fights your worst cold symptoms plus your runny nose. oh, what a relief it is. some questions can't wait until morning. so i'm one of many nurses at cigna with answers anytime, day or night. i'm lauren, and i've got your back. >>> and now to try to get some answers to your questions, our experts are here with the data showing that the autopilot was reprogrammed and you can ask your questions at #german wingsqs. and so the first question goes to david hall and to dan rather. dan, from gavin, and he says is there no air checking in the a320's pilot software for setting the software below cruising parameters? >> well, there is no error that you set an altitude that you plan to go to and that is the first parameter is to set the one that you plan to stop at. that is not an error, so you would need to land so you need to get the airplane down to the ground. so there is no error checking at all. all. >> and so, this is from angelo and why is he not a terrorist, and murdering this many people would be an act of terror and why isn't it, juliette? >> well, we tend to throw around the term terrorism, but it has a meaning that somebody does this for an ideological person for political gain and there is nothing that germany and france can do about this and they had a mass murder, and this is what it is, and there is no evidence otherwise. and i'd like to preserve the word terror ismism for the real thing, because if you throw it around, it means nothing afte

dan. dan, what do you think about these results? >> well kelly, looking at the numbers, the key number as you know was that cloud figure which i was looking for about $530 million so they were pretty much in line with that a little bit below, 28%, 29% growth. as you have been talking about the key is this transition they're making whether they can give up the incremental revenue on their older model, which is their standard licensing growth which i was looking for a little bit over $2 billion, down about 4% year-over-year and whether they can increase incrementally every quarter to go above the losses that are being on their core business which relates to database and erp. initially looking at this kelly, it looks like they hit that cloud number which is what everybody is going to zero in on just like what we get with microsoft, everybody zeros in on the cloud number. so it looks pretty good but official we want to get a little more information. >> shares initially negative on that report. now slightly positive. guy adami, what's your view on this one? >> everybody throws around this cloud like it's going to cure obesity. people throw it around and think 90% of the people that talk about it myself included, probably don't know what cloud is. and my concern is with everybody talking about it is it becoming commoditized? that said, it's still not a huge portion of oracle's earnings. let's put it out there. it's probably 5% to 8%. revenue miss concerns me. eps okay. still not an expensive company at 13 times forward earnings. i think it's good enough to get the stock back to levels we saw a couple months ago. >> evan where does it leave us? >> i think it leaves us where we started which is basically in the same exact place. the market has gone basically nowhere this year. the u.s. market at least has gone nowhere, and i think it's afforded opportunity for investors to sit back and ask themselves one fundamental question which is will the u.s. economy finally decide to grow at a reasonable pace going forward? is the u.s. economy fundamentally different than the japanese and european economies? because basically the market right now is kind of saying you know what? interest rates are not going to go up very much if at all. the u.s. economy is going to be kind of okay but not very -- nothing special. that's what oracle's earnings are kind of saying. as we look forward over the next nine months before the end of the year you have to ask yourself is something dramatically going to change? >> do you think something dramatic is going to happen? >> i don't think it's going to be dramatic but i'm a believer in american exceptionalism so i do not believe that the u.s. is going to end up like europe and japan, so i believe rates will go higher the u.s. economy will finally start to grow north of 3%, but it's not going to happen right away. >> but evan to be exceptional don't you have to invest in that exceptionalism? we can't just be exceptional because we think we're exceptional. we have to invest capital to maintain that level of exceptionalism which u.s. companies are not doing. >> u.s. stock prices are exceptionally high right now. so it depends what you pay for that growth. right now when you're paying 17 times forward earnings you're basically saying, you know i believe in growth. if it turns out that the u.s. is not exceptional, the stock market should go down because the multiples should go down. i happen to think things are okay. >> what do you think, dr. j? >> margins over oracle shrank just a little bit, so in terms of that particular story here rather than the whole economy, the margin shrink will be something people pay attention to as much as potentially a slight miss on the revenue. so those are things that you would rather if you're long which i have no position in oracle right now, but if you were long you would rather see that revenue number come in slightly above and the margins holding instead of shrinking. >> what names excite you most in the market right now? >> i think we want to be focused in on some of the dividend-paying stocks that have been hit by folks thinking that the fed move which could have that patience word removed tomorrow, i think when we jumped up after the last employment data kelly, and we got to 2.26% for the 10-year, i don't think we get that high for the rest of the year. i think 2.26% is, you know way out there compared to where we'll be with -- i mean basically europe has 63 billion a month they're throwing at the markets. i think they're going to continue to push rates to zero. they've already done that in spades for short term. anything five years and under is trading at a negative yield over there. >> right. i'm just guessing that you totally agree with that guy? >> yeah i do agree. doc and i have been steadfast. i think the reasons why we think rates are going down are different, but it doesn't matter. i think we both feel they're going lower and ths fascinating to me that the fate of mankind hinges on one lady's word tomorrow, whether she uses it or not. that's absolute madness. if the market wanted rates to go higher, the bond market would have raised rates months ago. the reality -- >> but that's the 30i7b9 isn't it? >> u.s. rates are going down regardless of what jaw boning happens tomorrow. >> so it doesn't all rest on what she says. >> no i don't think -- it might for 24 hours, but it's madness to think that -- listen, the genie is out of the bag there. they might think they control it but they have lost control. the forces of the market are firmly in control and we're in a deflationary environment. look at the move in crude oil. look at the elevated oil volatility volatility, the ovx trading around 60 three times what it typically is. doc can speak about that. it's right out there in front of you. you just have to be willing to see it. >> i don't mean to interrupt. we want to get one more earnings alert. it's on adobe following this one after hours with our jon fortt. hi jon. >> actually adobe's numbers look pretty good. revenue coming in at $1.1 billion. a little stronger than expected and nongap earnings per share at 44 cents versus 39. stock is down a bit after hours though. a little more than 4% and the reason why could be that the cloud subscriber number, a little weaker than expected. the street was looking for something closer to 600,000. 573,000. adobe came in at 517,000 net subscriber adds. the question is is that people churning off the creative suite? that's sure to be a question on the call as is the guidance for this current quarter, kelly. >> thanks jon fortt. thank you very much. danyou here, so adobe a bit of a miss. oracle's numbers look a little better. separate for us the winners and losers in the space at the moment as you see them. >> it's kind of interesting, kelly. if we go back and look at s.a.p. hewlett-packard is a big enterprise player ibm is a big software player all three of those companies pretty much negative in terms of revenue on their software. oracle looks like an okay number. obviously we'll get, like you said, on margins and other things. adobe number doesn't look quite as good as everyone expected. one thing to remember is adobe is kind of ahead of oracle in terms of they've gone a little bit further in making that transition over to the cloud in terms of more of a subscription based model. oracle is in the process of doing that with their acquisitions. it's interesting to see how adobe does as kind of a down the road forward looking on where oracle may be in a year or two. software is a tough market right now. >> and a very competitive one.

question we will ask investigators today. as far as recovery is concerned, where we are at that staging area, finding the other black box, the casing has been found but the recorder has not been found. finding the second black box will help to determine what happened on the crash. that is a priority for recovery crews today. if not badly damaged that would help explain, hopefully, hopefully, exactly what happened. aviation experts tell us if the report is true that leaves two possibilities, either incapacitation or a purposeful act. we won't know either until we get more information from the investigators today. >> molly, you mentioned the recovery operation. the terrain looks rough. how long could the recovery operation take? >> it is extremely rugged, ryan. we're actually five miles

site. you can't get there by car. you can not get there by walking. we're told the investigation on site will take about a week. i can tell you with only a handful of helicopters we are watching take

dan, dorothy and mary kissel also joins the panel. dan, did prime minister netanyahu change any minds? >> oh, i think he probably did change some minds. he came here and made a very serious case against the iran deal. and at the moment i think you know for instance, in the senate you have senator bob corker who has introduced a bill that says the senate needs to be able to vote to approve this deal once it's announced. and he now in the past days has got 64 members of the senate signed on. that means there's a lot of democrats who have decided that they want to sign off on this bill. and i think part of that is the result of prime minister netanyahu expressing the seriousness of what we are committing ourselves to in this deal with iran. >> john kerry has been in the gulf and it seems like arab governments now agree with netanyahu. >> "the wall street journal" had two very interesting stories this past week in which they are publicly saying, the saudis, the qataris, united arab emirates they feel they're being thrown under the bus by the united states in this deal with iran, a sworn enemy. why is the u.s. elevating iran in their region in such a dangerous way. >> before we leave the speech, i do want to show you one brief item that occurred within the speech. it is former speaker nancy pelosi. i think she turned her back on prime minister netanyahu. there you have it. she's turning her back. that happened several times. i'm rolling this videotape quite deliberately before i invite dorothy raninowitz to pass judgment on what we have just seen. >> well, it's only a foreshadowing of the very strange comment former pelosi made which she was moved to near tears by the israeli president's condescenton and failure to respect. the failure to respect the intelligence of your audience has been the prime exhibit of the obama administration. i kept thinking all the way down the list the prayer breakfast in which you compare the crusades with the greatest horrors of the 20th century, islamic fundamentalists, you can keep your doctor if you want it on and on and on and on, nothing but embarrassment. and then let us conclude we have the president of israel coming before congress grateful to receive at last some huge blowup of truth which has been in scarce supply in washington, and that is what you saw on the faces of those congress people. the recognition that they are listening to the real thing. democrats and republicans, i watched that speech many times. so we can say, ask yourself this. he comes to america to put forth this enormous danger all of the world is facing from a nuclear armed iran and what is the white house busy doing? something you have heard all week. they are busy in this extraordinary opera, this pettish aria of disgrace directed -- >> dorothy, i do hope i never cross you. that's a fact. mary, bring us up to date with congress. what's going to happen? dan has told us senator corker has 64 votes in the senate to make sure any deal with iran goes through congress. >> 67 would be veto proof. >> where does it go from here, mary. >> there's never been a significant arms control agreement with congressional approval, a major deal. congress also imposed a series of sanctions on iran, so congress wants to be involved. there's a bipartisan coalition, as dan explained, that needs to be involved, i think will be involved. i think netanyahu's speech put democrats in a very difficult position. this was a methodical, powerful accounting not just -- it didn't just expose rouhani as not a moderate but also laid out how iran has a vast nuclear infrastructure how they have hid that infrastructure, how the sunset clause would legitimatize them as a nuclear power. all of these facts will make it very, very difficult for democrats to approve the kind of deal obama is doing. >> 30 seconds dan. wouldn't it be true to say that prime minister netanyahu alerted

dan in connecticut, dan? >> caller: hi, mr. cramer. before i give you my stock i'd like to say i've been a loyal viewer since i was in middle school when my dad first introduced me to you. now i'm a finance major at sacred heart university hoping to work on wall street one day. you have been a major reason why and i'd like to thank you for teaching us young viewers so much and keeping us so engaged in the stock market. >> i remember the group of kids from the university of texas today felt the same way. you got to get people involved. the great ideas come from you, my friend by looking around. how can i help? >> caller: i'd like to know your opinion on go pro. they've fallen quite a bit since their highs but i think it's too far too fast since the important under 40. what do you think? >> as a flier you're a young fellow maybe but that was a trade like ali bab ba was a trade in the singles day, go pro was a trade into the christmas holiday season. once a trade is finished i don't look back. put the same amount of time in your portfolio as you do with your bracket. when it comes to filling it with the west coast players i say go with fb and wells fargo. much more ahead including my interview with the man behind the biggest story of the day. i'll ask ceo of starbucks howard schultz about his campaign. then the crew chaos has put the entire oil patch in a world of hurt. >>> plus the breakouts that need to be on your radar screen. i need you to stick with cramer! >>> yesterday howard schultz caught a lot of flack for his bold race together initiative. designed to use his coffee chain to kick start a national conversation on race relations, something that's very consistent with the company's socially conscious image. at today's annual meeting howard and his team spent time on the genesis of this campaign along with ahost of other initiatives. in the wake of his annual investor day which i watched on closed circuit tv and loved, let's check in with howard schultz, the founder, chairman and ceo of starbucks. welcome back to "mad money." >> thank you, jim. thanks for having me. >> howard i go and get my triple ven tei cappuccino. i say hello. they say hello to me. i never noticed whether they were african-american or caucasian. now i do. is that good or bad? >> in all fairness jim, i don't think that's the question. let's first look at the situation in the country today. between ferguson madison, wisconsin, new york cleveland, obviously the country is being torn apart by racial injustice and a level of racism that we haven't seen publicly for a very long time. i think starbucks has had a long history of recognizing that we have a national footprint and we want to answer the question in the affirmative, can we use our scale for good. all we're trying to do is potentially do something catalytic to start a conversation. we don't want to be intrusive on any level. in many ways this is what we did a year ago when we had the concert for valor and raised the level of awareness when in fact, most of the american people did not know very much about the 2.5 million people who were serving in iraq and afghanistan. so in conjunction with usa today in producing this document which will be in our stores as well as over 2 million usa's on friday, we're simply trying to raise awareness, the level of compassion necessary to bridge the cultural divide that exists in this country today. if a customer or a barista wants to opt out, it is not mandated. it's simply an act of kindness if, in fact the customer wants to receive a cup and understand that we're just trying to raise the level of awareness and sensitivity and perhaps that person may have a conversation with a co-worker or somebody else as a result of the fact that we took this initiative. this is not marketing. it's not p.r. i think what happened yesterday was a little bit misguided about what took place on social media. it was out of context. in addition to that, we announced today that there are 6 million disconnected youth in this country, the majority of them are black and latino. they're not in school. they're not working. they're ages of 16 to 24. like what we did with veterans on the hire initiative, we announced today we're going to hire at least 10,000 of them over the next three years. lastly and i know it's long-winded, i think it's a time in america where race relations diversity and inclusion affects all of us and i think the country would be best served if we could live in harmony and live together. >> i was surprised, i have to tell you. you put in front issues like gay marriage gun control, partisanship in d.c. veterans affairs and jobs. were you shocked that it was so vitriolic? >> i wasn't because i knew that this is an issue that obviously has a high degree of emotion attached to it and is very complicated. but let's go back to the beginning. i have held town hall meetings across the country with employees in los angeles, new york oakland, st. louis, and in chicago. i've also met with chief bratton. i've met with chief beck in l.a. i've met with chief o'toole in seattle. so i tried to do my homework and really understand how could starbucks use its scale for good. i recognize that when you are taking on an issue like this and you're establishing leadership and potentially going against the grain, there are going to be people who are going to be angry and upset, but what i try and do every day is ask myself is this initiative in the interest of our people our customers and our shareholders. this was discussed at length at a board meeting a month and a half ago, and i give great credit to our board to recognize that this is a time when we all should not be a buystander and we have to have a level of engagement on this issue. i also think that the country is at a tipping point. how long are we going to ignore these issues before something very serious happens, more serious than has happened in isolated ferguson or madison or new york. this is a nationwide problem, a problem that we need to address, a problem that's been going on for hundreds of years. starbucks is not going to solve the problem unto itself but can we be a catalyst and potentially elicit the help and support of other businesses and business leaders. i will tell you i have heard from other ceos and other businesses who have complimented me and the company on this initiative and want to know more information about potentially what else they could do inside their own company. >> but howard i regard my starbucks as my third place. to quote melanie hobson this is a third rail issue. why would i want as a customer or as a shareholder, a third rail running through my third place? >> i think you're missing something. a, if a ba brees ta does not want to write on the cup they don't have to or if the customer doesn't want to accept it they don't have to. jim, writing on the cup is a small piece of this overall strategy. the big piece of the strategy is starbucks and usa starting friday creating real content that will help all of our customers understand something. i think this is vitally important. whether a person wants to admit it or not, we all have some level of unconscious bias. if we could approach that with a higher degree of empathy and compassion and understanding, it will go a long way to bridge the divide. writing on the cup is a piece of this issue and it's not something that's going to last long. it was a catalyst to start this. what's going to last long is our company saying that we believe that there is a serious problem in america where in every community almost in america and can we use our stores and our national footprint for good. i would also tell you lastly and i think this is the most important piece of this this decision would not have been made in the affirmative if the large majority of our people weren't supportive of it and very proud to participate in it. so every open forum i've had across the country, our people have encouraged me and asked asking the question how could starbucks get outside of its small self and relative to the small meetings we're having and enlarge this to a larger conversation. >> twice you said i'm missing the point. i drink starbucks every day, so i don't think -- my position is both as a customer and as a shareholder. i don't know if i'm missing the point as much as i'm concerned about starbucks as a place, as a company, and as an institution, and i want to get my priorities right. remember, i don't work there. i go there. i'm not trying to say the wrong thing or the right thing. i'm trying to understand the context because there's been an overwhelming response, a firestorm, and sometimes i think the message was hijacked already and i think the message needs to be put in the context of look this is voluntary. it's not like you go to our place and you're going to be taught something. i'm concerned as someone who watched the stock today because that's my job to that i just don't want the message lost because in the end you're a great american company doing fab things for shareholders, for people who work there for customers. all three have to be balanced. >> you said it better than me so thank you. it is voluntary. it's voluntary for our people. it's voluntary to the customer. starbucks is a primary place for people to have conversations to meet. it's a social place. we're obviously not going to do anything to dilute the integrity of the third place between home and work which starbucks provides every day in this deep sense of community. but perhaps we can be a catalyst for some people to take the message and take it away take it to their children take it to their co-workers and have a conversation about race. one of the things we learned throughout the country in having these meetings is creating a safe place where people felt an opportunity to talk about their life experience and what happened taught other people who are not like them an opportunity for greater understanding and compassion. and i think that is what's needed. >> okay now, i want to ask you, do you think -- you've been criticized from both sides which tells me that you've done something right. do you think an initiative can be both a cynical exploitation to get more business and at the same time an idealist initiative that can hurt business? >> well i can without question tell you, jim, that there's no part of this on any level that's about marketing or p.r. or trying to get month are business. you know the company and i think you've known me too well to know that this is from our heart and from our conscience asking ourselves how can we use our scale for good. i don't think it's going to hurt business. we certainly have not seen that in the last 24 hours. this is going to have a long tail to it. i think people trust the brand. they trust the intentions of the company. they trust our people. and i have great faith that our people will do the right thing and not put any customer in a situation where they're being handed something they don't want to carry. >> i completely share that faith but i would be wrong because it is still "mad money." i felt technology initiatives and post mates, the ideas we've had them on our show of getting your beverage delivered, that would have been monumental. can you give us the business side. >> i want to say something. i'm not in the business of short-term rewards on a 24-hour cycle. we're building a great enduring company. the stock split, the delivery opportunity with post mates, they have a significant national infrastructure that will leverage all the things we want to do. we talked to a number of companies, they clearly won based on merit. then we're going to have delivery in certain buildings. we announced directly that we'll have delivery in the empire state building. one thing we did announce today which is quite significant and that is a joint venture with one of the largest ready to drink beverage manufacturers and distributors in the country of china with over 1 million points of distribution. they'll be bottling and distributing bottled frappuccino in china. that's a huge deal going forward. >> howard i wish i didn't have to say that you were courageous. i wish i could say this is every day business because it should be. right now it's courageous and i think it's great. i want to thank howard schultz, chairman and ceo of starbucks. >> thank you. >> look starbucks, look inside yourself and think about it but i also look in the end, it is cramerica. what a great stock, what a great guy. stay with cramer. well, sir. after some serious consideration i'd like to put in my 15-year notice. you're quitting!? technically retiring, sir. with a little help from my state farm agent i plan to retire in 15 years. wow! you're totally blindsiding me here. who's gonna manage your accounts? this is a devastating blow i was not prepared for. well, i'm gonna finish packing my things. 15 years will really sneak up on you. jennifer with do your exit interview and adam made you a cake. red velvet. oh, thank you. i made this. take charge of your retirement. talk to a state farm agent today. >>> in this environment where the price of oil is slammed even as it rebounded today after plunging at one point to a six-year low, what are we supposed to be to do with the pipeline focus that at one time has been one of the strongest markets performing. take mmp, a stock that spiked almost $3 today. they have the longest refined product pipeline in the industry. it transport gasoline and diesel along with the storage business with 95 million barrels of crude. roughly 85% is fee based, not the price of the commodities. it's got a strong balance sheet, so important. lots of projects in the works including the building of 800 to $850 million pipeline. so let's take a closer look with michael myers, the chairman and ceo of ma gelen mid stream partners so hear about where his company is headed. welcome back to "mad money." i've got to tell you, i was so glad when you were coming on the show. your company has made a lot of money for our viewers and you have been the most level headed of the people that have come on about oil. the mass limited partnership that's fee based but still depends on the transport of projects that are currently existing plus new ones, can that exist at $45 a barrel? >> absolutely it can exist. first of all, when you look at crude oil, the market needs crude oil and we transport crude oil. partnerships transport it. the market needs the product so it's going to move. it's just a matter of how much moves and whether you have commitments from parties that are credit worthy and can support the movements. >> let's talk about it. i saw today anna dark co came in. so many people want to be in this that it seems anti-thet cal to the business that i hear about the buzz. >> with regards to our project, we have partners now, we have plains. anna has just joined the partnership. we're very happy with that partnership. but i think that sets the example that we're investing for the long term. it's not really what the price of crude oil is today. when we build a pipeline the issue is and the question is what's the price of crude oil for the next 20 years. it's not going to be $40 or $4.0545$45. >> this is an unnatural price you believe? >> absolutely. oil has always been a cyclical business. the world market is not balanced at $45 crude. it's going to drop off. drilling is dropping off. production lags the drilling but it will if the price stays at this level but it can't stay there for long. with that dropoff in production you'll reach a point where supply doesn't meet demand. >> let's take the case the other day of a project that was cancelled by newfield. here's a place, 100,000 barrels a day out of utah. it would have been natural to build a pipeline but now they're canceling projects. that means a pipeline that will never get built which means that perhaps or will be on hold and will keep you from raising distribution because you've been a serial raiser. you need that growth. >>le with growth is important and there's no doubt about it. but we've got a lot of projects. you've taken one example where they're probably challenged. if you look at the global picture -- the domestic picture. you've got a lot of opportunities. the demand for storage is growing. >> we know from curbing you need storage. >> absolutely. there's strength in that market and facilities on the coast. that's a primary for us marine facilities and storage and dock capacity. you can look at the individual cases and say maybe that's challenged but the growth has not gone to zero. >> what would happen -- let's say you were 50/50. would you want to invest in that company? >> i wouldn't be opposed to it. again, the price of crude oil is cycles lick cal. it's not going to stay at $45 forever. the more commodity exposure you have the more issue is when you time it to get in. >> but it's timing. next year at this time you don't think it's going to be as low? >> absolutely not. >> it has to go higher because of worldwide demand or u.s. demand? >> it's a combination of growth and demand and the reaction we get from the low prices today which is going to bring supply in balance with demand. >> i'm with you. i don't know how fast but you know your business better than i do. that's michael mears of a company i regard as the most successful.

dan run us through. dan: the headline tells the story. the estimate was 50.5. in this part of the world when the estimate is so far off, that is a concern in the big thing about the numbers and the sub factors, not a good news. march is doing what we thought might happen in february, going soft. the data we are seeing more recent times. chinese data has been on the softer side and more underwhelming side. a big take away a 49.2 versus contractionary number first what we expected a small expansion. pmi case, it has flown through to the currencies. we are seeing the fed signaling possibly raising rates in the latter part of the year which is been a welcome relief from commodity price currencies and the kiwi. they will take no joy of the report. and really to say, it is a terrible read. not what the markets expecting. we really wait and see what the gdp numbers reflect in the first quarter. simply put, just seeing such a weak and anemic number was the real shock. policymakers and china have their work cut out for them. jonathan: going forward, do you think the numbers come out periodically and they seem to be tweaking things are around the edges. a few rate cuts and no big stimulus packages is that what you expect as the year progresses? she playing around the fringes? or do they have to think about going big? dan: they were at the start doing big soon enough. and the case of the chinese, looking at the data, in the first quarter, you have that factor and then they do start to build things off. to go to the point, really nice to explosive numbers in the growth we saw last -- probably the last five years. what the chinese will do is -- whether they like it or not, that will have to go in aggressively. at some point, when chinese tracking like that one, they need to keep the proverbial engine running. sometimes a rather crude instrument. very effective and blunt instrument in doing that. a big challenge ahead of them. not only is it a transition going on for domestic consumption, they will have to do something. they cannot really be what the rest of the world and the u.s. because currently, 7% and people are going what is to worry about? maintain their target? it seems to be somewhat challenging in this environment as opposed to 2008. jonathan: what is the rate for your home country? australia wi
