dom chu is on the floor with a look at the reports. >> it's been a mixed picture.etimes these banks are up or down, even though their profits are up or down. you can see goldman sachs down about a third of a percent. we'll get to it in a bit. let's talk about citigroup because it is america's third biggest bank. report a hefty decent-sized profit beat and yes the shares are up, one of the best performers in the s&p 500 financials right now. they were helped by some cost-cutting measures, helped to offset the trading weakness they saw from some of their divisions, so citigroup shares up on a good earnings beat. goldman sachs is down about .33 in trading, despite knocking the cover off the ball. beating analysts expectations, they show their fixed income currency and commodities trading surged by 10% after a decline last quarter. those shares still down, goldman sachs saying its investment banking revenues the highest since 2007. >>> and blackrock, those shares are down as well. the company got a lot of inflows, about $70.4 billion of long-term fund inflows in its fu

dom chu at headquarters with more on that. >> watching the i.t.percent. led lower by autodesk apple and salesforce.com fielding takeover offers according to a bloomberg report. it's down more than 3% today. a big run-up yesterday. apple suffering after a report from dow jones about possible problems with one of the components of their new apple watch. the big winner in i.t. equinix which yesterday raised its 2015 guidance on annual sales and earnings. still tech stocks to the down side today. back to you. >> thanks dom chu. >>> shares of time warner cable are roughly flat after the company reported profits and revenues that did come in a bit below wall street estimates but had very strong subscriber growth. as i reported yesterday, charter communications and time warner cable will likely meet next week to discuss strategic opportunities between the two companies. comcast dropping its bid for its deal to acquire time warner cable almost one week ago. joining us exclusively at post nine, chairman and ceo rob marcus. want to bring in my colleague med

dom chu? >> $16 per share.high end of its previously anticipated range of 14 to $16. at that valuation etsy would be worth approximately, again, approximately, $1.27 billion. they will look to raise $267 million in ipo proceeds at that valuation. it looks like etsy met with at least a certain amount of strong demand. pricing at the high end of the range, 16 bucks a share. >> the craft store of the internet, carol roth. is it worth that much? >> this is a great example of the sharing economy at its finest and, frankly, it's better to have a job that pays you money than one that sucks up all your money like golf right, bill? >> she hits me with a zinger at the end. melissa francis, you guys -- melissa lee, i'm sorry. >> that's okay. >> this is actually something that we got on etsy. we'll explain a little later on -- >> is that a sock puppet? >> and whether etsy is a takeover target. >> that looks like a sock puppet. >> i can't wait to see this. trust me it's all yours. >> thanks guys. "fast money" starts right n

dom chu, what do you have? >> that's right., we have micron the condition here is reporting earnings of, again, what i'm seeing is 81 cents per share. that beats the average analyst estimate of 73 cents per share. revenues also coming in slightly better than expectations $4.17 billion versus expectations for $4.15 billion. so a narrow beat there as well. just going through here and checking out the stock reaction we're seeing shares move up to the tune of almost 5% in trading so far. about 826,000 shares have traded so relatively heavy volume sara and bill with the move but up 4.7%. beats on both profits and revenues at least right now. the street reaction seems to be positive on this after hours. >> i'm with primerica. >> dom chu, thank you very much. we're going to talk a lot more with you. >> sara is going to be the adult and keep us on time here. >> be sure to stick around and catch guy adami, guy, thank you. >> good-bye guy. >> on "fast money." michael farr thank you. we'll check out our op-ed that you shamelessly plugged

dom chu. >> we have an open right now. it will open $20.50 it looks like right now. shares traded so far. opening trade was $20.50. on the higher end of all those ranges we were giving throughout the course of this particular half hour. it did take about a half hour to open it up. we are now trading at around $40.70. a very quick 22% pop in the stock from a $17 ipo price. we don't know whether it's going to stay there or not, but it did take a little bit to open. let's see what happens. back to you. >> we are going to talk to the ceo of party city. now that first trade happened. what a morning down here at the big board. meantime, the imf and world bank meeting kicking off in washington. our sara eisen is there live with a pretty important exclusive interview. >> good morning. i am here with stanley fischer, vice chairman of the federal reserve. nice to see you again. >> nice to see you. thank you. >> so here at the imf world bank meetings the economy is described as uneven and moderate. the global recovery. is that how you see it? >> yeah. it's very uneven. it's gro

. >> dom chu, thank you. delays, tarmac times, mishandled bags, how did airlines do throughout the brutal winter snow? we have the new data out. phil? >> melissa, these are numbers from the department of transportation looking at how the airlines did in february, and, remember we had a series of storms particularly in the northeast that made flying around this country a nightmare. here's the best airlines in terms of on-time percentage, and by the way, industry overall 7 % on time, but alaska hawaii and delta the tom three. in the bottom there's envoy air, american eagle as it is now, frontier and jetblue, not surprising given what we saw happening in boston which is its hub. how much damage storms caused, 16 flights delayed three hours in february, eight delayed at least four hours, and check this out, one flight between frankfurt and jfk, folks on that flight february 2 sat on the tarmac for seven hours. look at shares of the airline index, keep in mind that the airlines have had a tough sled over the last

so the market is somewhat -- >> dom chu, you're at the wall with a look at what we should have our eyesit is the worst performing s&p 500 industry group today down by 2%, 3%. something to watch for sure. when we talk about the consumer, that's a lot bigger of a deal for many investors because consumer spending makes up two-thirds of our u.s. gdp. this earnings calendar for this week is stacked with consumer spending pictures where discretionary or on the staple side of things. you have coach and kraft, both -- one's a staple, kraft, the other, discretionary. you have colgate and clorox to round out the weekend. >> winding down to the end of the program. three hours to go until the end of the day. what's your last thought here? >>. >> pfizer and merck. let's see how they do. i like health care. >> i love those names. >> we talked about tesla earlier. >> we talk about it being a technology company or an automobile company. it's a technology move today. it's back to the cars, talking about the improves to the "s" and the launch of the "x." a lot of the reasons why you're seeing the stock m

. >> thanks so much, dom chu. it's interesting the reasoning behind it. save money. >> it's going to save a lot of man power there. >> can you imagine what kind of company this is going to be now? >> leaner, meaner. >> you got to wait until they report on april 21st. you've got to wait and see what they say. i think you're flipping a coin right now. it has bounced off a recent low, but i think in you wait to see what they say. >> what we're seeg in the future for the two of these companies with they're both up identically. they're broaching the year to date for valero. i think you make a bit of money there, still, but you're better off in the service. >> linkedin rallying after the companies that would acquire education site for $1.5 billion. this would be linkedin's biggest acquisition ever. >> this makes total sense. it's a one-stop shop. and people always -- we talked about this. sort of counterintuitive. when the job market is terrible, you think this stock should do well. i think when the job market is great, people are more apt to get on because the

dom chu has more back at hq. >> we're going to try to clarify the details here.s there has been a cargo ship seized in iranian territorial waters, but it is not a u.s. ship. what we know per a department of defense spokesperson is that iran has seized a ship, but it's the "mersk tigress" that's a danish shipping company and the "tigress" was flying under the marshall islands flag. per the same defense department spokesperson cited by "reuters," there are no u.s. citizens aboard this ship. however, the pentagon is also saying there are u.s. military presence in the area and that they are monitoring the current situation. that chart that you're looking at right now is nymex crude oil, you can see when the reports first came out, that pop, that spike in crude oil prices, we've now given up pretty much all of those gains. we're now flat on the session for crude oil. so john, just again to be clear, per a pentagon spokesperson there has been a seizure of a cargo ship by iran, but it is the "mersk tigress" a danish shipping company's shipping vessel, flying under a mar

speaking of the deal that we've spoken about, dom chu at the wall with the other movers on this mega merger. >> the ripple effects we did see, some of the air let out of that halo effect trade so farp. many traders when they heard the headlines about the possible bg group with royal dutch shell thought about exxon mobil and xto energy. another natural gas company in 2009. remember a $31 billion deal. nothing to shake a stick at in terms of the overall size of things. check out some of the stocks here that have been moving. earlier today on this idea maybe they could be potential targets here because they do have natural gas assets and operations not just here in the u.s. but also around the world as well. anadarko, apc, one of those names that some have been talking about, one of the stocks that did see a bit early in the session come off that level a little bit. also another one to watch here is apache. see those shares as well, they are now marginally in the red, down by about a third of a percent the. earlier today we saw a pop on the idea maybe they could be one of the companies

a lot of stocks on the move today, including three airlines which got down graded,dom chu. >> that's right. if you look at these stocks here, delta, united continental, american airlines. deutsche bank cutting rating on these stocks to a hold from a prior buy. and they point out to weaker things like weaker than expected international sales. also other factors, as well. so those airline stocks lower on the day, thanks to that, and, of course, rising fuel prices as well. over to you. >> thanks. okay, so pete. >> yeah. >> you've got this price line upgrade yesterday by scott devit, in part expecting tail winds from an improving economy. you have the downgrade today on these three names in part because deutsche bank sees international sales a source of earnings disappointment. >> yeah. and they're concerned about the strong dollar. it makes sense why the downgrade, quite honestly. i understand when you look through the list of reasons, it makes a lot of sense. but he also mentions, hey, these guys are set up for the record profits. potentially. and record cash flow. so i think that comb

. >> dom chu, how did it come out? >> all three of us added to this. according to the fast ratings that came out right now, cbs sports final round coverage of the masters garnered an average 14 million viewers. that's a 26% increase over last year. the ratings was about 8.7 out of 19. that's what it garnered in terms of share. so again both 26% increases at its peak the ratings share was 10.6 ahead of viewership at its peak, between 6:30 and 7:00 the final round, the 18th hole of 17.7 million viewers. so a huge number of people tuned in to watch jordan spieth with the record-setting performance at the masters. a nice ratings boost. i'm sure a lot of people have been tweeting in on this tiger, phil justin rose all those guys as part of the mix, rory mcilroy had something to do with the ratings boost as well. >> you bet. as good as the sunday numbers were, saturday was 48% better than the previous year. >> wow. >> unbelievable. >> we need protagonists. that's what the game needs. if you get them this is what happens. >> personalities. that's for sure. th

dominic chu, keeping a sharp eye this final hour of trading. dom? >> one bright spot on a down day as mattel. the company has been struggling of late. barbie sales continue to drop. it beat expectations for the first time in six quarters. those shares up by 6% on a down tape. american express, the biggest loser in the dow jones industrial average. the company beat estimates but revenues fell short due to the strong dollar and the end of several co-brangdding relationships. goldman sachs, following a downgrade. a valuation call there. verizon, rolling out a new plan allowing its fios customers to make monthly choices of which channels they want to watch. a la carte style. the stock is up 5% so far year to date. outpacing what's happening with the dow and the overall s&p. back to you. >> we'll talk a little a la carte, dom. verizon slicing up its bundle packages to give consumers more choice over the channels they pay for. >> the public has been clammering for this pick and choose package. now that it's here is it going to be a success? richard tullow
