kate kate meets he regularly with the shelter providers to look at needs of the clients who the shelter have expressed a concern in they're not able to care for themselves they're fragile and there's a need for them to be move forward we've agreed to work on a plan i do know the department of public health will speak to that but their enabling more mental health nurses at the shelter to help us in p in delicate situation that's our pay attention i'm happy to answer any questions you may have. >> thank you very much ms. crumb and thank you, mr. walton just a couple of questions in terms of the when - what happens if someone is not able to take care of them and the shelter can't address their needs how is that individual usually handled. >> i know that scott talks regularly with the shelters so i'm going to ask him to provide an answer to that question. >> thank you very much. >> good afternoon supervisors the rule itself was about the ability to end a recess evacuates the shelters work closely with the nurse sport and the behavior roving team that supports shelters to try to address the issues in many case because of the alternative to call 9-1-1 they get returned to the hospital it's not an effective electrocution u solution but when a client can't move out of bed and the shelter staff are not trained to do that that's the solution that happens but what happens when those clients are identified there's a great deal of communication between the shelter provider and others often the hospital to try to determine what the solution is we want to avoid the client being asked at the hospital and they're saying the shelter and they get returned back to the shelter we work with the in home services their hours are limited and not twenty-four hour a day so the clients may have problems outside of a caregiver. >> i do want to appreciate mr. walton and ms. crumb for the work they do they've been responsive to those concerns do you have a sense of what should happen what's the ideal situation in this case so the client is not returned to the hospital not an ongoing cycle. >> i don't think that's a question the h f a can answer we work closely with the care of nurse maybe she can offer a response kate. >> (laughter). >> you're on the hot seat (laughter). >> so the question is what do we do when people go the the hospital. >> what's the ideal what's the outcome you want to see given right now it is sort of an ongoing cycle. >> it's complicated and each case is very complicated every time i get a referral for someone that can't take care of themselves that 3 involves a lot of parties not ideal for people to be 9-1-1ed out to the emergency room without someone on the other end advocating the emergency rooms are to treat trauma for instance if you have a chronic issue and you're in the er you're not going to walk out you you'll be attached

kate kelly is here with the latest. hey, kate. >> hey, scott. the whales last quarter had trouble generating alpha according to symmetric io with only 20% outperforming their individual sectors with great picks on the long side. a number of these big fish actually did stand out. starboard value, matrix capital pershing square outperformed in their selections could be instructive. some of the most profitable bets for the fourth quarter for these guys and others in the top 20 were spirit arrow systems, netflix, forest city enterprises and the williams companies. with other tech names and pharma names like allergen rounding out that list. the media and health care trend played out a bit in the top increased positions among hedge fund out performers this is where they added within the top 20 of successful stock picking. time warner, zoetis, cbs and netflix, says sem metric. energy decidedly out of favor and not just with warren buffet who sold $4 billion stake in exxon as we know, as its shares slipped last year. the best stock pickers of the quarter also bailed on anadarko and hess corp in a big way and looking at the broader universe this is now 1,000 hedge funds tracked by symmetric that file publicly, anna darkco, exxon and halliburton sold off by scores of hedges, as at least two of those names could be on the upswing at the moment. >> netflix is a standout because it's been the best performer in the nasdaq 100. the smart money was very smart. >> right. the returns were great in the fourth quarter. i think 33%. >> i thought the buffet double down on ibm was interesting as some wondered whether he was getting an itchy trigger finger to bail. >> right. very interesting. he added more than 6 million shares, a large position, it's close to 80 million shares at this point at a time, of course, when people are very skeptical of big blue. one thing i took a quick look at, where has he bald out at timing, times that would seem to be odd before. if you think what he did with exxon, you wonder. it tesco, one example, they had accounting issues last year and he sold out. he talked recently about conoco phillips and how he did not foresee the drop in oil and he had to sell out at a time when the shares were dropping after buying in essentially at a near term peak. sometimes he gets it wrong like the best of us. >> the thing is, he may have decided as oil prices started to crater he's got enough exposure given that the railroad is essentially pulling crude out of the bakken. >> owns burlington northern santa fe. >> fully. >> maybe he feels he's overexposed. >> the -- >> that stock looks like it's about to explode higher. checks all of buffet's boxes, cheap, great american brand, big market share, good cash flow, that's a really interesting stock and i would be long that name. i like it. >> katethanks. >> thank you. kate kelly coming up financials popping over the last month but is that rally for real? the traders are split. we're heading inside the hotel industry with the ceo of one of the most well-known chains in the business, hilton's ceo joins us live in a cnbc exclusive fresh off the company's earnings release. more half up next. but what if you could see more of what you wanted to know? with fidelity's new active trader pro investing platform, the information that's important to you is all in one place, so finding more insight is easier. it's your idea powered by active trader pro. another way fidelity gives you a more powerful investing experience. call our specialists today to get up and running. in my world, wall isn't a street. return on investment isn't the only return i'm looking forward to. for some, every dollar is earned with sweat, sacrifice, courage. which is why usaa is honored to help our members with everything from investing for retirement to saving for

kate. thank you. >> kate rogers. >>> we'll send it out to dominic chu here. >> we're watching a couple of big came out with earnings share reported of 13 cents. that misses the average analysts said of 14 cents per share. a miss there. revenues coming in just shy. $109 million. the expectation was for $110. what's really hammering the stock after hours is some of the commentary about q4 comparable sales. a 1.34% sale gain. also they see 2015 per share profit growth of 20%. analysts were on average looking for a 27% gain or growth in profits. their previous guidance was 20 to 25%. it comes on the low end of their prior guidance and well below analyst's expectations hence the move down. turn now to what's happening with marvel tech. that company is reporting earnings and sales. earnings of 25 cents a share beats by a penny but sales come at $857 million. 890 was the estimate. also, very weak q1 and -- revenue and earnings per share guide dance. marvel technology down about 5% in the after hours trade, kelly? back over to you guys. >> thank you very much. dominic chu back at headquarters. now 20

kate kelly is here with more. kate? lot of people talking about this one. >> this is definitely a big headline today and a big move by a group of four hedge funds to pull their stake in this company to push for change at the board level. ap louisa, ta canna and hg vora with a combine position of 2.1% are backing harry wilson, former leader of the obama administration's task force and restructuring adviser with his own firm as a candidate for gm's board this season. they're pushing for a share buyback of $8 billion which would be in addition to a quarterly dividend raised to 36 cents per share for the second quarter. the news has sent shares of gm already a popular hedge fund name soaring and some are saying the proposal makes a world of sense with the stock relatively cheap now could be a good time to buy back shares goes the thinking. kyle bass one of the fund managers behind the push has been arguing for balance sheet improvements to gm for years now. gm for its part is already defending its turf saying it will evaluate the proposals and touting that recent dividend hike and noted in a statement this morning that wilson will collect a percentage of any returns enjoyed by the hedge fund activist if their plan succeeds a detail laid out in the 95 page proposal to the carmaker yesterday. give the picture for the company and high-profile names involved will this be an interesting one to watch and one thing worth noting you don't often see ap loose sa in a proxy fight. i see one actual one attempted literally in the last 20 years. >> many things interesting here. number one, harry wilson, right, he led the restructuring of general motors in the administration on auto task force. hard pressed to find somebody that knows gm inside and out and the balance sheet as well. >> maybe steve ratner. >> ratner there as well. that said, it's still only one person. >> right. >> but it's effective that he can push the company to do what the shareholders would like him do, symbolic given his role in the auto bailout. >> a couple things here. the gm board is 13 people and corporate bylaws are such they could have a 17 member board if the board agrees to make additions. you can add him, change somebody over. it does have symbolic value. the fact that hedge funds got together and made this plan and nominated this person with credibility and history in the industry says a lot. the $8 billion buyback significant. they don't have a buyback program in place. they haven't done a buyback since 2012. while the dividend may be attractive this is a big move to return capital to shareholders. >> it comes down you owns the stock of how much cash do they need on the balance sheet. $25 billion or whatever they ended last year with. >> you can't blame them for being conservative after what they went through and they have a whole union contract situation coming up at the end of the year. issues ahead. i think mary bare ra has done a very good job. the problems at the company weren't under her. she inherited a bunch of problems and she's done a very good job in fixing sales, in fixing sentiment, morale at the company, improving margins and growing and expanding with the product portfolio they have. >> maybe these investors you tell me, katewould agree with everything you said and say that's all fine and good. >> right. >> but it comes down to how much cash they need on the balance sheet. >> is the $8 billion too big a bite? >> i think they're being conservative and just raised the dividend more than -- at the high end of what people expected and she's taking it slow. she has to fix the problems first and then grow the company and then deal with the unions and then maybe she can figure out in addition to the dvd she just boosted in big way buyback. i get there's value here. i just don't know ifs there's that sense of ur again stri activists right here right now. >> kate raises the issue hedge funds grouped together not that that is anything new. there's always these trades like hertz and some other names. >> but this is unique because it's such a large company you have to pull four people to get a meaningful stake and there it's not 4.9%. it's 2.1%. >> yeah. >> so they get together to sort of add to their heft. >> that's

that they did announce them, fossil and kate spade a licensing deal where fossil would assume the watch business for kate spade new york brants. fossil and kate watches but the balance of the results, both the earnings sales, and forecast leading to that sharp decline. you can see they're down about 13% right now after market. back over to you. >> and that is a 180 from their last quarter. wow. dom, thank you very much on fossil. crude oil recovering losses today ending the day in the green. we're joined exclusively by gary evans and today's panel. gary, welcome back. good to see you. >> good to see you again. thanks for having me. >> let's begin with the discussion we were just having. is it your anticipation that the oil price stabilizes from here moves higher or moves lower? >> you know it's a question that everybody wants to know. on the good side the rig count has continued to drop every single week going on seven, eight weeks now down to close to 1,000 drilling rigs. the bad news is we have the highest oil inventory in storage since the 1930s. so we got too much oil, but the rig count is dropping. what is different this time is that the

find out if temperatures warm up anytime soon as we send it back to the studio with kate for a check of the forecast, kated evening, justin. we have freezing rain and drizzle as justin just said with temperatures below freezing mark. you can see more moving n you can see green shading there and changing to the purple a as snow starts to fall across south central pennsylvania. the as we you'll in here we will have everything. this up across lehigh valley, purple is snow. then we have sleet to the south. the pink near the the city that is freezing rain and freezing rain is probably the most hazardous of any of these impacts because it does freeze on the surface and cause those icy conditions. right now we are dealing with some sleet and snow at the moment but as temperatures cool down many spots could see this end as a brief period of snow. temperatures across the region right now this is key. we are seeing freezing temperatures all the way down toward dover, atlantic city and way up through the poconos. this entire region is below freezing. wildwood only area hanging on to those temps above freezing at the

kate's point. >> i'm with kate. we already have it. >> we already have a good deal. although there's no doubt the opec holding the line on 30 million in production sparked off this downturn. >>

operations. he's there now and gives us an exclusive look inside what goes on behind you, eamon. >> hi, guys. what's going on here is they have analysts looking at what's going on in nasdaq trading globally in realtime. they operate 24 hours a day 6 days a week in this facility to watch for any fraud or impropriety in financial markets. they're looking for things like high speed trading and they're also looking for old-fashioned fraud like insider trading. they're doing things like background research into the bios of executives of publicly traded companies to see if any of them have incidents of fraud in their background. so much attention on high frequency trading and i asked nasdaq's ed knight what they're doing to focus on high frequency firms. >> in the last three years there had been 15 cases taken against those firms. there have been millions of dollars collected in fines. some of those firms have been removed from the market. on a larger basis, finra and nasdaq together will look at 1,500 different cases in a year. perhaps 10% of those will end up in legal action. but our goal here is to find bad behavior, but it's also to deter bad behavior. >> and guys so much of what they're doing here is about finding the evidence that there might be something suspicious and then forwarding that evidence along to federal regulators like the s.e.c. and also finra and the folks here at nasdaq have told me that a couple of cases that you might have heard of originated with tips that began right here in this room including a $9.5 million fine against new edge usa in 2013

of oil. the exchange rate shocks that they've had obviously which has undermined russia's economic strength, also their medium term prospects. so i have to tell you, the downgrading of russia's sovereign debt is a bit controversial because they don't have that much of it. the issue is that they don't have a lot of dollars coming in like they used to and so they have to really figure out where they're going to -- how they're going to put that cash out into the system. they're going to have to make choices about what kind of debts they're going to roll over. but their actual sovereign debt isn't that big in size but there's a lot of commitments for the dollars they bring in. moody's downgrading russia to junk based on the crisis in crew crane

kate snow is at the scene for us. kate good morning. >> reporter: good morning, savannah. federal investigators are on the way here now. this is the most deadly accident ever on this railroad. you can see the burned out car behind me. there were more than 600 passengers on board as it slammed into a car stuck on the tracks. a twisted heap of metal and glass is all that remains after it collided with a commuter train from new york city bound for the northern suburbs. as the commuter train traveled north, a black jeep drove on to the tracks and the crossing gates came down and the drive got out to look for damage. she got back in and tried to drive off, but was stuck when the train hit her. the train pushed the suv more than a football field, causing the vehicle to explode in flame and the front car also caught fire and pierced by the third rail. the driver of the suv was kill and so were six passengers aboard the train as the smoke spread through the cars and passengers scrambled to get out. >> i cut my hand and i bashed the glass and we started climbing off. >> people tried to help those in the front car. >> we couldn't get the door open. we were trying to blake the glass to no avail. people in the head car got out and maybe they broke the window or something. >> most rescued themselves and tweeting have now left scene and just top the go home and hug wife and kids. you never know what tomorrow will bring, folks. the last crash was december 2013 when a speeding train cama off the rails on a curb killing four. it was blamed on an engineer with a sleeping disorder. andrew cuomo spoke at the scene of this crash. >> it's a painful reminder how precious life is and sometimes how random it can be. >> as emergency crews worked into the early morning, their lights cast shadows among the grave stones of a cemetery. a fresh tragedy with few answers. governor cuomo said given what he saw last night and the devastation, he is surprised there were not more casualties. this is a train that has come under scrutiny from investigators. they had several accidents over the last few years. >> thank you. debra is the president and ceo of the council and chair of the ntsb. they are beginning their investigation. what is first on the list at the scene? >> they will arrive and begin to gather the perishable evidence and focus on things that might go away in time. they will be gathering recorders and video that might be in the vicinity and talking to eyewitnesss. >> tell me more about the recorders. what will they learn when they start to go through the images. >> with the recorders, generally what they have is recorders that will identify speed and direction and throttle position and braking. if bells or whistles were put off. we might be looking for video, any video footage that might exist at or near the crossing or on board the locomotive. there is a lot of people in the vicinity and we might have witnesses who provide video to the investigative team. >> the fact that that electrified third rail pierced the first car, how far devastation could that have done all by itself? >> we have to look at the mechanics of the crash, certainly the fire was a huge factor when it comes to the time that the passengers had to evacuate. you want to identify all of the causes of accident damage to have more robust and better crash worthy train cars in the future. >> we are not sure what happened to the jeep cherokee but you get to a crossing of a train and you see the lights what do you do? >> you have got to stop and give plenty of time. we see about 2,000 crashes every year that result in about 250 fatalities. this happens too often and unfortunately if cars get on the tracks and the gates come down it's a very dangerous position to be in. you want to make sure before you enter a crossing that you can completely clear the tracks on the other side when there is traffic in the roadway, you have to pay special attention. >> good advice there. thank you very much. >> a devastating passenger plane accident overseas captured on video. watch this. a transasia airways jet plunging into a river in taiwan overnight, triggering a major rescue operation of course. ian, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, sa van a. the latest we hear from taiwan aviation officials is that 23 people are now confirmed dead and 20 still missing. the aircraft wheeling into a taipai river this morning. >> this dash cam video appears to show the last moments of the flight. the character clipping the roadway before crashing in the shallow river below. emergency rescue converged on the partially submerged fuselage and 58 passengers and crew trapped below. debris was scattered nearby. one of the first to be pulled from the plane was a small child, one of two believed to be on board. the 72 turboprop was only nine months old. 31 mainland chinese were among the passengers and it just took off from one of two airports on a short domestic flight. the airplane lost contact in what had been a stormy morning, but it had been clear at the time of take off. local television showed the damage to the overpass. the aircraft appeared to barely miss nearby apartment buildings and it's not clear whether the pilot pilot deliberately steered it into the river to avoid further disaster. this was the second disaster in six months. another crash last july killing 48 people. it's dark now, evening time in taipai and the search is continuing for survivors under floodlights. the river is shallow so they have found the black boxes which should enable them to determine what did go wrong. back to you. >> all right, ian williams. that's just terrifying. thank you very much. >> isis followed through on the threats to murder a captured jordanian pile at. jordan responded by executing two prisoners by releasing a convicted terrorist isis did demanded. richard? >> reporter: the jordanian king abdullah who cut short his visit to washington returned to his home country. the jordanian king is a close u.s. ally in jordan and across the muslim world, there were condemn nations of isis and revulsion of the brutality. crowds of supporters gathered in imam to welcome home their king and demand he exact revenge. before sunrise jordan executed two militant who is had been on death row, including this woman who isis was trying to trade for the life of the jordanian pilot. the 26-year-old 50 lieutenant captured when he ejected from his f-16 on christmas eve on a mission in the u.s.-led war. yesterday isis released this video shocking even by its own standards with images of the pilot being burned alive in a page. president obama who met with the king after the video was released promised action. >> i think we will redouble the vigilance and determination on the part of the global coalition to make sure they are degraded and ultimately defeated. >> across jordan there is no disgust and anger over the fate of the fallen pilot. they are murderers, said the pilot's father. they do not understand human or international law or that of prisoners. i asked them that avenge the blood of our homeland. they threatened up to four more radicals and promised to deliver an earth-shaking response presumably renewed air strikes. there is growing concern for the last known american hostage, a 26-year-old woman working for an aid organization to help syrian refugees. atfamily's request we are not releasing the name or the charity that aide was work for, but a potentially positive note that i have not meat any videos they have made of the american hostage or made known demands. savannah? >> thank you very much. let's go to mike who served under the national terrorism center and now the expectative vice president working with the federal government on national security matters. i have to say this. is it possible to overstate how gruesome savage and gruel this video is. i hate to give it more attention except to ask the question what is behind taking this level of barry:ity to the next level. what are they trying to do? barry: it is helping the u.s. and countries like jordan take the fight to isis. isis's main enemy is the west but alongside and worst are regimes like king abdullah's in jordan. this is muslims fighting against muslims and that's horrific. he is a sham leader. they hope to fracture this coalition and think they will end up doing the opposite. >> how does this play in? you mention their involvement in the u.s.-led coalition has been controversial. not everyone supported it. do you think seeing what happened to their national hero this pilot might double their resolve? >> absolutely. there was a minority starting to oppose jordan's involvement and it was exactly the opposite. jordan would be more committed and think this will make sure that the u.s. stays firmly behind jordan that needs military and financial support to face what's going on in syria and iraq. >> we talked about the american woman currently being held. the president in our interview said everything is being done to try to help her, but to put it into perspective, how limited the options are. >> it is so hard. we had great success with bin laden and other missions, but this is difficult. we had few friends on the ground and even for our operator this is a mighty task. >> it is a dark day indeed. thank you very much. >> we have new developments on the boston bombing case. >> defense attorneys in the boston marathon bombing trial have not given up on trying to get a judge to move the trial out of massachusetts. they asked for jury selection to be suspended. his lawyer argued that it's clear that many people already believe their client is guilty. it is the defense's team's third motion to relocate the trial. a breakthrough may be on the horizon for patient who is suffer from an aggressive type of breast cancer known as triple thegative. researchers in jacksonville plan to begin clinical trials for a vaccine that may prevent the disease from coming back after the patient has been treated. it strikes 15 to 20% of breast cancer patients. unlike many other forms, it cannot be treated with estrogen blockers. the coast guard braved frigid conditions to save a log out of an icy channel. the labrador happened to fall in and rescuers saw it happen and then they jumped into action. the dog was about 200 feet into the channel covered in lose ice. the lab was not wearing a collar but the owners were located. a lucky day for the dog. doesn't get easier than this. an inmate back in custody after escaping from a north carolina prison by walking out the front door. security video -- that's the sound effect. william earl hewitt walked past the metal detectors and once outside he sheds a coat and sprints for the woods. this was an elaborate plan. he posed as his brother set for release and they caught him five days later. his brother also in trouble. one of the guards has been fired. >> unbelievable. >> it happens. >> all right, natalie, thank you. >> i saw that on the dukes of hazard. >> didn't chase them though. >> that's the difference. >> we have good news to talk about. we will get to that in a second. not a lot of great news temperature-wise. this frontal system will bring a light clipper of one to three inches throughout the northeast, but the big thing is that it will drop these temperatures. we had wet weather making its way through the south from new orleans. we have wet weather and west palm beach looking at cloudy skies and showers and look at the rainfall amounts. anywhere from one to two inches of rain. the rest of the country there is the swath of snow from the dakotas into the northeast and wet weather. there will be a series of storms into the pacific northwest dumping a lot of rain. your flowers madaam. it's miss, actually. ♪and each time i tell myself that i, well i think i've had enough♪ i'm sorry dad. ♪but i'm gonna show you, baby that a woman can be tough.♪ ♪i want you to come on, come on come on, come on and take it♪ ♪take another little piece of my heart now, baby!♪ miss dior, by christian dior. >>> good morning, i'm meteorologist bill henley. a cold start this morning but clouds will be thinning out. a nice warm up today in the 40s this afternoon. tomorrow, the winds shift and here comes the cold. and a little light snow in the morning with a blustery afternoon. high of 31 after a morning low of 29. colder on friday and another cold start on saturday. saturday afternoon into the 40s. dry saturday but that changes sunday, monday and tuesday. have a great day. . >> and that's your latest weather. >> tamron we are talking about a frontier in fertility treatment. >> it's a medical breakthrough and a real topic. they passed what is being called the three-parent bill that allows the use of dna from three different people to make a baby. obviously there could be benefits and the ability to prevent diseases but it has many people asking when enough is enough in terms of medical intervention. we are asking you to question this morning. should people be allowed to create three-parent babies. a simple yes or no from you, we would appreciate it. lauren said why not let biology happen naturally the way it's supposed to?
