finally j.c.ney trading higher after reports the retailer will begin offering targeted discounts. last week on halftime bill ackman had this to say about j.c. penney. >> people criticizing them for taking away the sales last year and going to every day low price. some people have noticed the company is starting to bring back sales and clearance. it's going to be a balance between every day low pricing and sales and other ways to drive traffic and to give the customer value which is something the company stands for. >> all right. that conversation happened before the brouhaha. so it was sort of lost. >> yes. >> that comment from ackman. what is your reaction to it? >> i think looking at -- i think what ackman has to say about j.c. penney is really, i don't give it much credibility. he's been dead wrong on the stock. but i actually bought j.c. penney stock this morning because i think the stock was over sold. i thought that a little bit of positive news like we got here could get the stock rallying

j.c. o'hara and zachary carabela. j.c., what does the chart of walmart look like you to?ke the charts, another 10%, to 11% downside risk before it looks attractive. what's the technical story? well, if you look at a longer term chart of walmart it's a blue chip megacap stock that's slow moving, and then comes 2012 and all of a sudden the stock price rallied up to 75. and this is one of those examples of a stock that moved too far too fast. the larger the pop, the farther the drop, and right now with the rounding top running out of gas at 75, i'm looking at 62 on my chart as a downside level before walmart begins to lock attractive to me. >> j.c., you're a seller. zach, what do you say? >> a $6 drop on a $6 tock, maybe it's 10, maybe it's 9 or 11. from my perspective it could fall 10%, so the question is you can't own anything in every portfolio so you've got to own some things. i don't think walmart is ever going to hurt anyone. the question with walmart is how much will it benefit you regarding others and a lot of trends in wall mort's favor. one is a somewhat stabilizin

on the technical side j.c.enix partners group and on the fundamental side steve cortes with veracruz. j.c., what do you think of the charts, mcdonald's, coca-cola, who do you like? >> there's no such thing of looking at a chart coke and having a smile. a longer-term chart looks like the price will fall off of the sugar cliff. if you draw a trend line from the 2009 lows you'll see it rest right around 36. that also lines up with horizontal chart support. coca-cola right now is trading in the low $37 range. if any more weakness enters the chart we'll have serious technical damage so i'm staying away from coke so i'm looking at mcdonald's because i'm beginning to warm up to this chart. reason why. similar pattern, longer term up trend and was intact in october and now it's fighting its darnedest to move back above the 94 level, a nice sustained close above 94. back in business for mcdonald's. >> steve, you want the coke with the fries, don't you? >> i do not, and i'll pass on the fries here actually, j.c. between

on the technical side of things j.c.hoenix partners group and charles or theel with newport partners. great to have you on the program. j.c., kick it off. stocks or commodities? >> let's keep this debate very, very simple. stick with the winner and the winner over the past weeks, months, years have been the equity market. look a chart for the s&p versus crb as a proxy. equities are higher and commodities lower. look at a chart of the s&p. i don't have to be the first one to tell you the s&p is break out to new 52-week highs. new multi-year highs. while commodities have been trading lower. stocks, higher highs and higher lows and commodity lower highs and lower lows, so right here i want to stick with the winner. >> j.c., this is charles. i respectfully disagree. it all depends what time period you go back into. go back to 1998, 1999 and do the comparison, what you see is stocks have not delivered for investors appropriate risk-adjusted returns. gold has been a consistent winner. not all commodities are great. i agree wit
