taking a look at what? >> if you look at volatility across the board. look at all te aset classes.o me when you look at that, it's quite a conundrum on what stock versus done, versus a commodity space and treasury. oil volatility up 170% plus. bond volatility up 20%, gold volatility up 2%. stock volatility is up 3%. it gets pull emed. stock volatility is down. what does that mean? what it's telling me is money is being funneled into the equity market. that's where the liquidity is at. all other places, there is a ton of uncertainty, the oil market. >> that uncertainty is driving volatility up there. i think, however, this is becoming a very one-sided trade. right? all the money funneled into the stocks. i think you get one hiccup in the stockmarket here. boom that sort of snaps back. you can get volatility. >> one thing we talk about the global investor. his thesis is extreme volatility and asset classes have to come to the place or the asset class. it doesn't have that volatility n. this case, that would be stocks. >> that makes sense, one of the reasons we haven't seen it in the

at the first years in terms of how to look at the deviewer and look at the cooker free kind of portfolio moving forward thank you. >> i'll open it up - >> can i ask for clarifying question when you say investment managers were you incorporating both. >> both sides and both keel with the kind of i've seen both sides. >> great the chair will be open to a motion to speak to something. >> i'll move we adapt the level it. >> does your motion include both items that staff outlined level 2 plus the compliments. >> yes. thank you, mr. president. >> is there a second. >> okay discussion on the item. >> go ahead commissioner. >> i'm not to vote against it the reason i'm going to take a step back a year ago my recollection is i proposed level one and made the motion and the board voted unanimously for it i'm not against level 2 per say there needs to be a murder - an incredulously there should be more questions asked and amongst the proposals why did they pass or not did level one be successful how do we determine whether it's been successful or has it not been successful before we as a board decid

that's a look at your ride. now kate. >> let's look outside.start you off on storm scan3, looks a-okay, no problems out there as we sweep the area. that's going to change at this time tomorrow that entire storm scan3 picture will be shrouded in green as rain moves in. look at all of the moisture off to the south and west. we can expect rain starting right around midnight tonight. continuing until perhaps as late as 5:00 tomorrow afternoon. periods of rain heavy at times. let's time it out for you here. you can see, through the rest of the morning looking at dry conditions, the sun will come up, it will be a beautiful sunny start to the day. by about 3:00 p.m., you will start to see those clouds, those first high cloud moving on in, by 6:00 p.m., it is cloudy, the rain arrives by around midnight, then is just keeps coming in waves. there is 5:00 a.m. there is 8:00 a.m., all through the day, noon, tapering to showers late afternoon, then it is out of here. yesterday's winds 35 miles per hour, good news today less wind, that means even though the

we're looking ahead, but we look back and have a look at this pmi data we had today and then the surpriseut. now, looking ahead, do they cut again? i mean, it's the second one in three months, isn't it?. >> simple answer, yes, they will. simple as that. china's problems are not really cyclical. this isn't a response to the cyclical downturn in the data. in fact, if anything, the recent numbers, the pmi we saw this morning and the trade surplus the other day, were much better than expected. so it's not a cyclical issue, it's a structural issue, and that's going to maintain downward pressure. >> you have to explain what that is, then. >> china has too much debt. it's as simple as that. far too much debt. the debt has been led to sectors that are not particularly productive. and until they introduce really major structural reforms to deal with those issues, growth is going to continue to grind lower and lower, because you're basically throwing good money off the bad lending to firms with low or very negative profitability. >> a lot of people talking about the soe, state owned enterprises and

melissa, how are the roads looking looking? >> roads looking okay, but rails, marc completely canceled today. route 201 bus will run today. vre also canceled today again because of the snow that is headed our way. as far as travel times, 270, outer loop top side of the beltway from 95 to 270 looking quite good there. 66 east no problems and 95 north on time at 23 minutes. >>> 6:13. a live look in northern virginia right now. this is the picture from vienna. you can see wet roads there. they have been seeing rain fall. we'll check in with derrick ward >>> good morning. tracking this snow that stretches from dallas all the way to boston. and we're on the southern he said of it right now but eventually this area of snow you see in the white and gray will be moving closer to the metro area but not until later this morning. right now the pink zone green mostly rain. it's just to our north and west. northern montgomery county and up into frederick and washington get something snow. metro area mostly rain with a little bit of sleet mi

so look at ultimate doppler and look at the temperatures. 29 you're looking at snow right now in trenton. 31 in philadelphia. we have sleet. we have freezing rain. temperatures right now in wilmington 29 degrees. we're looking at that sleet north and west temperatures in the 20s. we're dealing with snow in allentown sleet in pottstown as well as reading. as we look at ultimate doppler expanding the view, you can see pretty widespread coverage right now of that wintery mix. once again in white that's the snow. the pink and purple that's the sleet and the freezing rain. that is impacting our area with treacherous travel right now on the roads. the entire area right now through early on wednesday morning we are looking at the wintry mix and the winter weather advisories so especially those untreated roadways here's a look outside of our studios at fourth and mark those windshield wipers are going. 31 degrees so temperatures are at or below freezing. as far as the hour by hour forecast, you can see by 6:00 p.m. we're still right around 32 in philadelphia. 30 in pottstown. so we'll be dealing

. >> looking at longer term when you look at the higher interest rate environment? >> if rates are very, very high it makes equities less attractives. the dividends are worth less and so forth. these are very low rates. artificially low. moving up a legal bit, is it really that bad? the market didn't like it today but normalization of rates is probably a good thing over time. >> dan, you're looking at the home building sector. >> listen, we have a date, march 18th, the fed has their next meeting and whether they will remain patient. if it's in that statement, then that would be a very dovish thing. if they take it out that means rates go higher sooner than later. the tlt makes a lot of sense. there's short term oversold here. one sector despite decent news is home builders of late. the only reason i'll say this, when you think about it, if rates goes up and mortgage rates goe up quickly, you could see a pause in home building activity and a loot of retail. this was a good trade, it sets up pretty well to me because it's not off a heck of a lot from recent highs. you

let's look at the highlights.he deficit target was lower, gdp, but still wider than 3.6% they committed to early in the year. other key steps, there was a cut on corporate tax. we also saw additional spending on investment infrastructure there, roads, bridges, and power plants, and additional spending could help cement into as a leading growth driver there as we see the slowdown in the economy in china there, expected to grow in india 8.5%. here is what the finance minister had to say about real gdp for india. >> the real gdp growth is expected to accelerate to 7.4%, making india the fastest-growing large economy in the world. >> execution is key in all of this. is faced with a lot of opposition here, especially in the parliament, where the opposition parties control that area, a huge hurdle for him. the loss in the daily state election -- delhi state election did undermine some of the support that modi had. india is in a sweet spot currently. all, they said what if this window closes once we see prices go up, we

so, looking this way, and we will look up. see the stuff sticking to the power lines, fortunately, right here, there is no trees over these power lines, but sometimes you don't even need a tree to fall into when there is heavy wet sticky snow even sticking to the traffic signs out here start sticking. and then up in the distance, see the glass bus stops. not always good idea to be that close to the road when you have these puddles forming on the side of the road. people are getting drenched waiting for the bus by people doing 50 miles per hour plus and hitting puddles gathering on the side, not worried about hydroplaning. a lot of dangers whether walking or driving, we look in the distance at bishop use that is prep, one of the schools not having school today here in new jersey, and across the river in philly. >> guys? >> archdioces schools, public schools, closed, as so many, and we'll scroll those at the bottom of your screen. >> checking in with penndot see what's happening on the roads. >> charlie metzger, good morning, si
