joining us is ed lee from "the new york times" awaiting netflix earnings technology, steph, in the cross nasdaq down 1.3% could earnings be a lifeline for this group as we await the netflix numbers and the coming big cap tech stocks over the next few weeks >> it certainly could especially pockets hit that have quality earnings and good end markets like for example the semiconductor stocks all of those end markets are quite strong like in the trillions if you go out the decades so there's going to be opportunity and in addition to the earnings i think there's very strong free cash flow and going to save the day there's such a big allocation to tech and comm services notice s&p 500. and so you're going to have to have the other sectors do better we saw excellent results this morning from union pacific the airlines nk throw away 4q but the rest is encouraging. it is a stock pickers' market. you can pick some tech where you feel confident semiconductors is where i'm at and also into enterprise software and enterprise i.t. recovery names so you want to be careful but find some ideas and we ha

ed lee tweeted this out earlier and it is a two panel chart and it is market cap or stock price and the bottom is shares outstanding. they bought 82.5% of stock and they could buy back and not add any net debt through 2026. it is creating its own floor under the stock, guy >> yeah, it is pretty amazing, right. that added with the fact that passive investing and how many etfs and mutual funds that apple is in, you could start doing the math and understand as money flows and the news cycle and it is sometimes rendered moot i'll say this quickly, they probably get penalized crazy enough for the amount of cash that they have on their balance sheet. you could make an argument that they put that to work in a more productive way than just buying back stock the stock and their rating would actually be higher so quarter of a trillion dollars or so sitting around on a balance sheet, again, my sense is that is probably not' net positive, to some shareholders or investors it is a net negative. >> what do you want apple to do with its cash, karen >> buy google shares i would think google should buy

mayor willie brown, newsom and ed lee. over 14 years and eight months. as a person that has experienced the policing, i think the mental health part of polices is the most important. i want to make sure the people, citizens of san francisco receive the best policing that is possible in our city and in our state. i think that as a black trans woman i am concerned about the things that other citizens are concerned about and mentioned by the other speakers who have presented their issues here. i think that ones we get the police force and proper oversight of police force a lot of issues citizens are having will stop the complaining and abuse that is done by the police to citizens. i would like to see the murders of trans people of color solved. my girlfriend mariah was murdered not too long ago. her murder is still not solved by the police department. i would like to see action taken be on that. i think that more important than anything we have to show and the reason i run is to show that transgenders can do more than just walk through the streets. we have

ed joining in a moment tom lee joins us just a little later on, but there is your up to the minute market picture rob, i go to you first as i said, there's carnage all over the place you have technical damage. you have the vix at 35 bitcoin at 34. what are you telling your clients at this moment >> we came into the year thinking the markets would selloff, scott, and holding some extra cash while we don't think the worst is behind us, we definitely think there are stocks to buy today and we'd spend about a quarter to a third of that cash today. as global growth and negative rates will eventually carry the day and we also think that powell threads the needing controlling inflation and not doing too much damage to growth and markets are doing some of that for him already >> steve weiss, i got 78% of the s&p down 10% or more from 52-week highs. i've got the ark complex down today by some 8% cramer at 10:34 this morning says 9-1 down and maybe it's a little bit to rob's point. must buy even if you hate it hate in all caps how do you see the market here, steve? >> you know what i hate losing mo

. >> in your opening op-ed as a senator you wrote, in order for america to reassume its lee shipped inolitics, the company had to repair failing in our politics at home. it was obvious what you were pointing to at the time. frankly things look worse than it was than when you penned that op-ed in 2019. i am curious, where do you think we stand? if you read "the new york times" op-ed, two on the civil war, one about where america is coming apart at the seams. is that where you are? where do you think the nation is right now? >> there's no question the nation is severely divided. president biden said he would try to unite the country. his comments in georgia didn't suggest he's trying to pull us bam together again. when he was elected people were not looking for him to transform america, they were looking to get back to normal, to stop the crazy. it seems like we're continuing to see the policy and promotions not aing accepted by the american people. james carville just said he's had a bad week, but not a bad year. smaflkt, he's had a bad year. he's had 52 weeks of bad weeks. people are 7
