she joined the troop as part of a $2 million deal with mattel. in addition to the new doll, girl scouts can earn a barbie badge. it's the first patch ever with a corporate sponsor. with her passion for fashion and that impossible hourglass figure, consumer groups are blasting the partnership, saying a barbie in a scout uniform sends the wrong message. >> barbie is basically a terrible role model for girls. she's not about what the girl scouts' principles are which have to do with leadership and courage. >> reporter: the girl scouts strongly defend the partnership and the new doll, saying that barbie has a wholesome image. >> girls and moms alike associate this doll with the outdoors, camps, giving back in your community, and we think that those are really positive messages to be sending to all of our girls. >> who's a girl scout here? >> reporter: but can barbie cut it as a girl scout? >> absolutely. >> reporter: in a world where kids are bombarded by ads at an early age, this mom thinks the dolls and the past are no big deal. >> i think that the

[ applause ] meanwhile, mattel just introduced a new barbie doll called entrepreneur barbie.hat's her. mattel says barbie is ready to make a bold business move and strike out on her own to achieve her career dreams. it's about time. she's like 80 years old. she comes with a -- you can see the tiny little smartphone and tablet computer, so you can look forward to fishing those out of your kid's nose in the near future. and by the way, she has her own linkedin page. i already spend like, i don't know, half the day ignoring linkedin requests from my friends. now i have to ignore them for my daughter's toys, too. and by the way, entrepreneur, not a career. entrepreneur is the job your cousin who sells weed claims to have at thanksgiving dinner. [ applause ] it's the sort of thing thief been thinking about lately, these toys, because as fred mentioned my wife is having a baby this summer. we don't know if we're having a boy or girl. we assume it's one or the other. but you never know. i have two older kids. my kids are in their 40s now. one of them is older than i am. so it's been

mattel, it says barbie sales are way down and so is the stock.orter: barbie sales are way down, down about 15%. the drop we have seen them barbie sales is the worst we have seen in five years. coupled with the fact that they have bishop price under their control and that is 11 quarters in a row of seeing drops. fisher price strength is coming out of american girl dolls and that is what area doing well and some of the frozen dolls they have been manufacturing, which complete against her own product, so those are two areas of strength for mattel. they have other things, polly pocket know that, but barbie's the big headline. stuart: i have a report that says xbox sales have doubled. it seems like kids are playing games for sure. barbie dolls not so much. reporter: is you later barbie. stuart: local, we will be back shirley. a new poll, charles will not like it. 62% of voters who own stock believe the market is rigged in favor of insiders are people who know how to military the system. you talk about this all the time, charles. it seems that kind of

about it then i did a mattel commercial and it was for a doll that you pressed a button and her two front teeth came out and my first line was getting the first. well so the very prestigious. in life or anywhere i would say for me what growing up on t.v. is not easy when your voice is changing where you're going through puberty at fourteen i just remember i think it was our third or fourth season we wrapped and we came back four months later and my voice was a lot lower and i the seeing all the writers and the producers again and you know it wasn't easy and there was there's only so there's a boys. going with them my favorite thing about working with ben is that we've developed a friendship that's lasted now twenty one years and i know no matter what the circumstances are ben always has my back and i know that he knows that i always have his back doing to turn the shows we weren't as close during the time off as we were certainly while we were on the show during the ninety's and as we are now but we kept in touch we never fell out of contact. with her she's very passionate and she's very

mastered the art of hospitality, chipot chipotle, whole foods, men's warehouse, southwest airlines, mattel and beyond, costco, brown-forman, goldman sachs. it's amazing to see how well his premises worked. s&p 500 rallied 39% in the five plus years since then. the danny meyer index left the s&p in the dust, average stock roaring 380% higher. why has the meyer index done so well while the gatsby index has done so poorly? the gatsby index was all about trying to measure a specific segment of the economy, the high-end spender, the high-end consumer. it is the same problems you see in a typical etf when you invest in a whole sector or concept because you get the good with the bad. but the meyer index was very different. danny's idea of a hospitality quotient took profit for execution which leads to higher sales, higher gross margins and, best of all, bigger profits. this is the point i want to nail home here. when picking stocks, remember you're not just betting on a given theme or industry. you are buying tiny little pieces of actual companies. those are run well. their stocks tend to perform
