your traders are tim seymour, steve grasso, brian kelly and guy adami. here's what's on the "fast track" tonight. the apple watch hype overshadowing an apple downgrade today. hear what tim cook has to say about the preorders in a cnbc exclusive coming up. >>> and the hong kong market hot right now, but for how long? we'll tell you how to play the big rally. we start off with our top story. general electric powering the dow higher today. ge closing up nearly 11% with trading volume nearly 300 million shares. the company announcing a massive restructuring this morning. it is selling most of its ge capital and real estate assets and is instituting a $50 billion buyback program, this for a stock that has not done that much under their ceo. >> looking at the comparison between a honeywell for example and a general electric over the last 15 years, let's say since pre-2000, there is no comparison. honeywell has completely outperformed. both stocks trade around 15 1/2, 16 times forward earnings, but we've said a number of times, ge needs to get back to being gen

steve grasso. >> i'm red green.d to have a trader that doesn't know red/green. >> see a problem that. >> we live in a color coded world and there are color signals all around us. and so people have difficulty doing things every day in their day-to-day lives and occupations like being a pilot. a lot of military occupations. being electrical engineer or being an artist or interior designer. people really struggle with not being able to see color. when you think about color vision deficiency or color blindness not well understood that people see only about 1% of the total color discrimination that most normal humans have. and, so, it is quite limiting in terms of a visual sensation that is missing. >> this is also a one shot in the eyeball sort of thing. >> which sounds bad. >> which sounds awful. i mean, really. >> i'm out. >> this would be a simple procedure that's done millions of times in the u.s. every day. >> on purpose? >> for example, fa simple injection to the eye. it will be very well tolerated for patients.

"fast money" traders john najarian and steve grasso join us also. interesting moves. we talked about the stock market moving lower. bond yields are starting to move up. is this all about the fed? >> it might be. it's kind of a nonevent. i want to make a more optimistic spin on the lousy gdp numbers. when you have winners and whatever, let's look at a four-quarter change. when you do that real gdp is up 3%, it's not flat. when you look at consumption plus investment the basic heart of the economy, that's been drawing at 3.3% annually. the last several, three, four quarters. i'd like to see a 5% growth rate. i think we're actually moving towards a 3% growth rate. i love the fact that there is zero inflation. zero. zero. priced to go. i love it. >> carol, has he got you convinced? >> absolutely not. he's not had me convinced for probably a year now. if you look at the consumer the fact that they are not spending even though we've had this great sort of gas, almost quip of a tax decrease for the consumer they're not spending. we're not seeing the capita

tim seymour, david seeburg, steve grasso and guy. here's what's on the fast track the apple watch being released but not everyone is handling with care. the guy that did a tear down of the watch to tell you what he found and the mining stocks on fire today. is it too late to buy into the move? we'll debate it. start off with our top story the nasdaq closing at its highest level ever and we are in the center of it all. amazon, microsoft flying on the back of earnings but the sector is not showing green. chip names like intel, broadcom, qualcomm all sitting out today's rally. are these semiconductor stocks flashing a warning sign for the tech rally or do we take google, microsoft, amazon as heavier weights. >> when it's time for chips, but broadcom to me, qualcomm we've talked about for a while been a disaster since july and will continue to be as disaster. qualcomm -- broadcom not expensive, great quarter. we caution and said listen this thing traded up to 47.5, 48 back at the start of 2011, be careful. if it spikes there post earning

grasso, what do you say? >> barriers to entry are nothing here. >> for yelp? didn't mention it, but amazon could do this in their sleep. everything he rattled off -- >> or google. >> but amazon's already there. it's so conducive to their business model right now. tomorrow. >> also, remember, google owns that and they have maps so it's a broken -- it's been a broken story for a long time. i'm not discovering something new here. but i don't think you buy this on a dip at all. >> time for the final trade. around the horn we go. dan nathan? >> twitter, i was not happy. i think it's a very unique property, i did buy the stock on yesterday's close and again today. i've -- it's been good to me buying it at 38 over the last year so i like it here. >> bk? >> xle, i like the energy sector and this is for a trade. >> karen finerman? >> anthem, the old well point, came out with earnings today. i thought even though the stock traded off i thought there were impressive numbers there. i like it. still not expensive here. >> grasso? >> bakers hughes, bhi, up 22% year to date.

virtu. >> grasso?the theme on all these ipos, everyone has figured it out and dan pointed it out on the smart board yesterday, is this small floats they all have. if i had to pick one, i would go with party city. i don't agree with the business proposal of etsy. i don't think the company agree was their own business proposal. they don't sound confident. party city sounds like the one with the best chance of being successful. >> listen, i have a personally etsy i think could be actually a really good name except for the fact it went up to 87%. mrs. b.k. is basically a whale on there, buying everything as part of her business. up 80%, can't buy it. given those three i bpick virtu. >> guy, do you like the sock puppet? >> i don't want to see party city. virtu because we ran into all the cats that are running the place out in the foyer of the nasdaq. >> foyer. >> leverage. >> fancy. >> coming up next, ben bernanke has a new hedge fund job and it's causing a stir on the desk. find out what the traders have t

steve grasso, what do you think costco? >> costco is up 5% year-to-date. doesn't make a habit of cross over the 100 day average. i would be careful. this one seems weak. they are saying all those right things. they are saying dividend and buy back. as dominic chu elaborated, might be a little bit to look into. let it settle above 146. >> netflix bucking the sell off trend. is it time to take profit from this 0 stock. plus take your position. facebook, yahoo! google and microsoft all out next week with earnings. we'll tell you how the traders are playing it. >>> rough day for are the markets. one stock bucked the trend. netflix went up another 2%. so what, i know guy said that was a good sign. does this make you more confident of netflix? >> yes imf brought up a great point the other night. so many people have bet against this stock there's a lot of people waiting to cover it. it's so hard to cover a stock that's priced at the level that netflix is. you have to look at the inter l international growth. >> do you think part of this move higher was still shor

[roll call]>> the clerk will report. >> it is my vendors

and grasso thinks you need to look at the dollar index to figure out why. >> if the dollar is creating head winds for the s&p 500, then you have to look at the environment that it's creating for the smaller cap names to actually outperform. by a ratio of 2 to 1 and 3 to 1 if you look at the midcap 400. you see this level right here. that's your march level. it sells off, tries to test that level once again, fails, fails, doesn't even create another momentum event here. so you fail right before par, right before $100. this is the 50-day moving average. that's been in your support. that level is 96. 85. it seems to be strong at this point. if you bleed it out longer term it's actually overbought on a monthly basis on an rsi level. so the trading range is actually 95.85, being really specific all the way up to 101 let's call it 80. that's the levels that you want to know. if this sells off, good for large cap. if it continues to rally, good for midcap. i would say at this point you might be closing that gap between performance levels because i think the dollar is due to come back back off
