i agree with hank. think over time what we'll see stocks will do relatively well compared to bonds with a fair amount of volatility. and the reason is companies are delivering tremendously strong earnings and the ones, the stocks you want to be in is the stocks that have earnings growth and that deliver good shareholder value, some of which may come in the form of return of cash through dividends and share buybacks and some which may be reinhe is having in the business to deliver more growth down the road. lori: so, having said all that, seth, what would make you more committed, more bullish, more interested in picking up some of these dividend players, classic utilities and so forth? >> i don't think we would be very excited about utilities at all? lori: never? >> they're trading very substantial premiums where they trade ever and they are in fact, right now, expected to have negative earnings growth over the next few years. and tend to be relatively leveraged companies that have a lot of regulatory ri

(laughter) >> normally i would say that's an extremely strange analogy but there is something about vladimir putin that tells me that he has sheered a lot of pigs in his lifetime for the sole purpose of hearing them scream. the bottom line is-- the bottom line is, whether or not we get our hands on edward snowden any time soon has no bearing on the fact tha

also, hank paulson here in aspen. he worked with ben bernanke. i asked him if he was surprised the feds still had to do so much with the stimulus five years later. we will also talk about china economically and u.s. relations. a tomorrowic, as you know bill, that hank paulson knows well. we will get his insights on china. on this market day driven by the fed, jim grant of grants interest rate observer coming up. and market in the triple digits, bill. >> yeah. let's get you updated on how we are trading now. dow was up 165 points at the high of the session. off that now with gain of 123. back above 15,000 at 15,033 today. nasdaq also with a pretty smart gain of three quarters after percent. 25 point. at 3401 and s&p 500 index. higher by the financials, by the way. that's the leadership group the last three sessions as we move higher here. s&p is up two thirds or 11 points at 1614. >> much of the action today, a reaction, to two federal reserve policy makers. assuring investors that ben bernanke may have been misinterpreted and he is not easing up

joining me now, hank hughes former senior accident investigators with ntsb and one of the people featured in the documentary making the claims. i know according to the press release and information out there, this documentary has solid proof there was an external detonation. why hold this information to reveal in a documentary? why not reveal it now? >> well, i think an interesting aspect of your opening remarks might be addressed first. you talked about two criminal investigations. at the time it occurred, it should have been civil aviation accident investigation. the question of why would they believe it was a criminal act, for the first several days they kept saying it was a missile. with regard to the examination, we violated our own protocols that have been well established. parties to the investigation

hank, this is a weighty allegation made here.'s solid evidence that the original finding was untrue. what is that evidence and what are you and your colleagues now saying happened to that plane? >> witnesses say a missile or missiles shot down flight 800. the physical evidence supports that. but in terms of penetration, nitrate deposits found on the aircraft, when we reconstructed the interior of the airplane, which is a job that i supervised, we found that there was absolutely no correlation between the victims, the interior, and for that matter the explosion, which suggested a high degree of separation of parts or high ordnance explosion. in addition to that, after pain stakingly filing requests and suing the fbi, the cia and trying to get factual information that should have been made available to the public, we were able to analyze the radar data. at the time of the explosion, there were particles of debris and matter traveling at mach 4. >> you're saying that the fbi, with the help of the cia and your bosses at the ntsb mani

your ancestors and mine and i'm sure hank with his. >> sure. >> we are truly the land of opportunitiesd i do feel a strong moral obligation to share and give back. >> there's been a breakdown between society and the banks, society and the wealthy. how are we going to come together? why is the 1% constantly vilified, even though things like this, your giving, it's not discussed? >> i think there's a change in the mix of our population, and it's -- we move too far to the left and we don't appreciate the fact that jobs and creation comes from the private sector. it doesn't come from government, it comes from the private sector. >> let me ask you each about the way you give, because hank, your star foundation, what are you trying to achieve through the foundation's philanthropy? >> well, we're doing many things. for example, we have a major cancer research program. and one of the things that we brought to that, not just money, but we insisted that the various organizations that are participating -- cornell university medical school, new york hospital, the brode institute, cold springs lab

raiseum was unable to money, and hank paulson and goldman sachs acquired the land. you might think that the goldman sachs would take the forest, a multibillion-dollar asset, and log it for itself. instead, hank paulson gave the land, worth billions of dollars, to the wildlife conservation society and took only a $34 million text deduction. when this was brought to the attention at the meeting, the directors fined paulson $100 million, but the dirty deed was not unwound. today the 800,000 acres remains unproductive. trillium had anticipated revenues of $150 million annually from its project. instead, the wildlife conservation society is now trying to figure out how to develop it as a site for eco- tourism, which is pure foolishness. the sad tale is the reality of sustainability. it is only a notion, the purpose of which is to fool people to think that environmentalism exists on a higher moral plane than the rest of us. it is the environmentalist that are thinking of and planning for the future. otherwise the rest of us would just wreck the planet for future generatio

hanks can read him the warrant. >> he'll get a copy.ve my copy here and i will read him the warrant verbatim. then he's released back to the custody of the facility. demetrius? >> yes, sir. >> i'm tom hanks. i'm a detective with the indiana state police. this is your copy. i'm going to give to it this officer. i'm going to read this to you. arrest warrant, the state of indiana, authorized the warrant on demetrius burks, no social security number listed. 4-6-1988 date of birth. criminal offense of count one, battery, resulting in bodily injury, class "d" felony. if the court set this is matter for initial hearing by video conferencing with wa bash valley correctional facility and the warrant does not expire. >> that's a "d" felony, sir. >> it's going to be count one, battery resulting in bodily injury, class "d" felony, correct. okay? >> yes, sir. >> all right. thank you. >> he got an initial hearing i think video conferencing that will be conducted with the courts, it will be done here. he'll probably request a public defender and he'll

hank, welcome.on the closing bell. >> thanks for having me. >> you guys have been undergoing a big renovation. any of us who've been there to any of the games have seen it. where is it right now? >> we're almost done with the biggest transformation ever to occur in any arena. we've taken the icon, madison square garden, we've built a brand-new building inside that iconic exterior. we're two-thirds of the way tone. after the summer we'll reopen and the project will be complete. the completion will include a brand-new lobby called chase square. two brand-new bridges suspended over the playing area that will be called the chase bridges. brand-new state of the art score board. we'll be refinishing the ceiling. last but not least, the last v.i.p. amenity still left that's not sold out, the signature suites, which have recently gone on sale. >> it's cost about a billion dollars. and there are some in the city who want you to get out within 15 years. you've just done a new lease. they want to do 15 years.

former ntsb accident investigator hank hughes is one of the people in it. >> what would your analysishe primary, primary conclusion was the explosive forces came from outside the airplane, not the center fuel tank. >> reporter: the ntsb and fbi stand by the findings but today as the wreckage of the plane sits in a hangar, authorities promise they are open to a new investigation is new evidence is presented. gary tuchman, cnn, atlanta. >> the new documentary is called "twa flight 800." and features investigators including hank hughes who joins us tonight. >> this say pretty weighty allegation made here. you say there is solid evidence the original ntsb finding is untrue. what is that evidence and what are you and your colleagues saying happened to that plane? >> witnesses say a missile shot down flight 800. the physical evidence supports that but in terms of penetration, deposits on the aircraft. when we reconstructed the interior of the airplane, which is a job i supervised, we found there was no correlation between the victims, the interior and for that matter the explosion that sugg

myself and hank and others, we would promote gigs and put malcolm x on the cover of flyers. and some cat would roll up to us and say, "yo, who's this malcolm the tenth?" [laughter] that's when we said it's important to see if we can use the music as it reaches people and just fill it with something that means something. one particular song and one particular video that got the attention of many, by the time i get to arizona, which was about arizona's reluctance to declare a statewide holiday in honor of martin luther king, jr. right. at about the same time you recorded that, i was actually working for usa today and interviewed the governor. oh, you did that, huh? a lot of us did. this guy was... mecham. intransigent. there was no-- and the state was in no mood to be lectured to by public enemy about what they ought to be doing. you did this-- this rap video, and you did-- the video itself had some provocative scenes. the governor was poisoned; is that right? or blown up. the governor was blown up, and a senator is poisoned. here's my question: beyond the obvious entertainmen

see, come on, hank. landing the punch. greater than a conviction for past wrong? >> he looks good. he does work out. listen, yes, i mean it is no joke, no secret that office is political stepping stone. i think what kind of bothers people and i think particularly the greenberg cases just, so useless at this point. hank greenberg was thrown out essentially of aig. ashley: federal case to proceed anyway? >> that is legally dubious too. no federal case against him. ashley: yeah. >> he was thrown out in 2005. spitzer charged him with various violations of martin act securities for it as new york attorney general. most charges got thrown out except two. they are pretty weak tea charges. why are you going after the guy? he is 88 years old. adam: real quick. we're running out of time. sac, the deadline is approaching. when is this deadline? you have a book -- >> what is great about the deadline, approaching a week after, this is the statute of limitation, when it ends in mid-july. it's a week after my book comes out. adam: inside

welcome, hank steinberg. writing for television and writing a novel. >> writing for television is very immediate. you know if you're episodes a year, something will shoot. you're doing it off the seat of your pants and you're not being professionistic. someone's going to direct it, someone's going to light it, it's going to go. when you're writing a novel, you're all alone in the dark little room hoping there's a reader out there somewhere. it's also kind of a straighter line between you and your readers/audience, because you know it's not going to be interpreted by all those people in the middle. >> right. >> and, you know, every word is going to be, you know, absorbed and when you write a screenplay, you kind of know, you might just say, you know, interior bar, it's a dive, period, that's it. you know the production designer is going to come in and they're going to interpret that. so it was a very gratifying experience. i always wanted to do it. ever since my "without a trace" days, i kind of found the righ

in 1975 before i had my tonsils taken out, hank aaron was my idol growing up. had my tonsils taken out, i was 7 years old, very nervous. my parents gave me hank aaron pajamas, and when they gave me these pajamas, my mom and dad told me the challenges that the hammer faced in pursuant of this record and they told me the challenges and what he's overcome despite his color. this is a lesson my mom and told me when i was 7 years old and a lesson i've carried throughout life. i treat everyone fairly and by their own merit. under no circumstances should you judge somebody for any other reason. >> let's take mark at his own word and paula deen at her own word in 2013. can we move on from this? can we accept that, yep, she used it, she hasn't in a while, and it's okay? >> here's the thing. whether or not i take her at her words is almost immaterial. she has a right to have a tv show and say what she wants. she has a right to thing what she wants. even though she's racist, i don't think we should take everyone's job because they're racist. that would be the entire netwo

i'm just trying to imagine been i was talking to tom hanks recently about his first broadway play hes doing. he was moaning about how hard it all is. you have to do real acting. i was like what about you? this is just you on the stage? >> it is a real test. if the play wasn't so substantial and about someone so, so richly important as a human being, i would be hard put to do it. but actually the only time i'm at peace and happy is when i'm actually doing it. the prep, the -- racing home, the going through the going to bed procedures we all go through, have to get down by 2:00, must go down by 2:00, must get up by 9:30 or 10:00, must hasten through -- and i virtually have no other life because of course this time of year is very big in the theater. you have to do wonderful actors, fund benefits and things like that. it is serious. >> the guest list is incredible. tom hanks, the clintons, gabby giffords, mark kelly came, meryl streep, bette midler, tom jones, whoopi goldberg, so on, so on. everybody is raving about this play. >> it feels pretty special because of, again, who the play i
