kevin get des, raymond james. and we have senior price president of economic research. in the pits of cme. i want to start with you, dan. you guys hear these rumors. we don't like to comment on this one but this was so dramatically affecting markets intraday. what was it like in the pits? what did you hear? >> absolutely i was looking at the boards i see we higher. i peek up, six higher and kept breaking. two things to point out this market likes certainty. in early part of the day they liked what the fed said. they liked what was going on in the economy. we were 10 higher. as soon as that went down my initial suspicion there was russian problem in ukraine and that is exactly what happened. went from 10 higher to 10 lower in a matter of 15 minutes at the most. now we recovered, even more so since the close here. this thing needs to be watched. but i'm guessing there has been nees out there this past few minutes that said that russian issue isn't that big. david: saying a lot of the rumors were overblown. people were expecting the worst. >> right. david: brian, talk abou

people look at homebuilders and for example, we spoke with raymond james.pect the reality is we are losing other recent divorce is into the absorption of other households. it is probably a wash relative to other information. they call improvement stores head, he does not see those companies factoring into their model. home depot and lowe's are counting on more details, it will not end well. >> would not be terrible that was part of your business strategy at the class you have got to look at all the factors. logic will tell you, maybe would leave us more spending, but, the pros have looked of the -- looked at this and said, it is basically a wash. tough on families and not necessarily a net plus. question anyone talk to about the local areas, the geographic components of what areas get divorce more than others? >> i am sure there is more out there. we did not get into that yet. that would be round two as we continue on divorce week. >> you are an entertainment reporter yesterday and now a divorce correspondent. what about tomorrow? a food critic? >> i am rea

. >> john over at raymond james says that cvs could make up some of the loss and thinks there are others of offsetting sales, but the bigger issue is the changing business model. they are going from being a retail health pharmacy more to health care provider. >> not only does it feel better to do business with them? >> thing about it honestly. do you walk in there and think about the customer? i walk into cvs because there is a drugstore next my house. >> they want to get more into the health care provider business. you are seeing them more and more opening up these clinics inside the stores. they are offering prescription drug plans. that is what this is about. you have seen walgreens doing this. >> if you want to think of cvs as a health care provider, you do not want to see cigarettes on the shelf. >> what do you want to see? --ry goes, chocolate, great gatorade? soda pop? >> that is a good question. walgreens came out with a statement saying that they are also considering evaluating whether or not he should keep selling tobacco products. obviously, the president is very happy, he ca

raymond james had a comment about that today. sectors, well, we're weak across the board.es and health care, are the ones down the at least. industrials consumer discretionary among the weakest sectors we have. emerging markets weak throughout the morning, russia, indonesia, south korea, south africa, all down about 2%. one bright spot's pfizer, two-month high on the new breast cancer drug succeeding in a trial. at&t and verizon are sort of weighing on the dow right now. pfizer's the only stock in the dow 30 that's to the upside. take a look at the vix index. we've been mentioning the fact that that cash part of the vix $19, is now way ahead of the futures prices further out here. and you can see the february futures are just about even with the march futures. so whenever this starts happening, you get unusual inversions in the curve here. oftentimes in the past that signalled at least a short-term bottom. if it gets worse, i think it will start getting more attention. hope you saw the interview i did this morning with bill o'brien, now the president of bats. this is a new

recently, raymond james did an evaluation of it that only data that we dollars per user. microsoft outbox. sony says it is out of stock. they will cut the xbox price to compete. here is ryan payton. ryan, who is coming out on top? xbox or playstation four. call it. >> it is hard to call a game that is only in the fourth inning. these new console wars, they go on for seven, eight, maybe nine years. stuart: are you going to call it? >> which of those companies, sony or microsoft, can figure out the big key to winning the console war. that is what can they do to get people that are not hard-core one of these guys will have to figure it out. xbox is down. i think that their play on tv is probably the best that. stuart: i am always astonished at how important these game consoles have. apparently, it is calling the shots. i have to move on. you founded an independent production studio. you make independently games for smart phones and consuls. that is what you do. >> i left one of these big dogs. i left microsoft to start our own studio in seattle. i really feel like they are s

also with us, chief investment strategist at raymond james financial. good to see you both.where did you come up with 2,000? >> bill, we had our old target, which was 1850 to 1900. we set that back in august. i think the economy is more dependable. i think you're doing to see more confidence, not only from u.s. investors, but from global investors as well. so we're kind of the lead sled dog. our economy is growing at a dependable but slow rate. valuations are reasonable. so really, all we're doing, we adjust our earnings number up to $118. you take a historical average on that, and that gets you to about 2,000. really, if you look at valuations and sentiment, a 2,000 call is really not a crazy call at all. >> all right. jeff, where do you guys stand? what do you estimate? for scott, they're looking at $118 for earnings if year for the s&p 500. where are you guys? >> we use standard & poor's bottom up operating estimates. they're clustered around $122. i think scott's right. if you put a normal valuation of 16.2 on that, you come up with 1975 as your price objective. that's w

one of the things that people were talking about as we rallied into the close here was raymond james earlier today putting a 300,000 number out there for the payroll number. are people crazy to bid on that number like that or not? >> i think to see this type of rally on initial claims number might be a little exuberant. but certainly there is hope that december was an aberration. i don't buy the weather story everyone has been putti inting . i also hate to rain on everybody's parade today when we've had such a great day on the street. i have a big debate actually going on in washington, which is where i'm based, over the debt ceiling. i think that's going to be a major story line going forward, even if the jobs number turns out well. we're going to have a lot of partisan politicking, partisan brinksmanship on the hill again as we move forward. >> that's a good point. >> hold that thought, guys. we want to get these numbers on expedia. earnings are hitting the street. dominic chu is standing by with the results. >> okay, kelly. the first thing you got to know is the stock is up about
