we implement through american century's global real-estate fund run by steve brown, and it has been a class, as you can imagine of the last year so. steve really hit the ball out of the park with a fund. we continue to overweighted. because that sector has done so well and arguably we are moving to the mid cycle stocks, we have been reducing the overweight, but it has been helpful and continues to be from a better perspective. also again from a potential inflation hedging perspective. cheryl: reducing. is this specific things a you're looking at? i don't need names. specifically is it office properties, hospitals, apartment? where are you seeing some signs of weakness? >> broadly diversified. they have done so well in price terms that the valuation metrics are no longer as compelling as they once were. it is very broadly diversified across all the major sectors. again, across all major geographies as well. cheryl: kind of a general pullback. want to talk to. one of those things we have been seeing is the dollar strengthening. this could open up a whole knew host of problems for u.s. m

steve brown has a look at that live from chicago. steve? >> reporter: hey, jon.in the stock market these days. better times if you invested in farmland. now the reserve bank of chicago did a survey of a five-state area here in the midwest and found last year farmland values throughout the region went up 16%, particularly in the state of iowa. they went up 20%. in iowa in the last five years, up 100%. now that kind of movement usually draws speculators but we're told the vast majority of buyers out in iowa? they're other farmers. >> farmers have looked at what the other options are and a lot of them are saying, i want to invest in farmland because i'm getting a better return there and it also maybe sets up my family for having an expanded operation in the future and helps with the live lie hood of my children. >> reporter: particularly when they can invest up to 50, 60, 70% down payments. that is because corn and soybean prices are at the highest they have been historically over last several years and interest rates for loans are historic loans. it is a combinatio

steve brown is live in chicago. teve, good morning. >> reporter: what we're seeing is farmland prices jumping extraordinary high. in a five-state area last year in the midwest we saw farmland value jump 60% on aggregate. in iowa it was up 20% last year. over the last five years 100%. who are the buyers? not speculators, it's other farmers. >> farmers this looked at what the other options are, and a lot of them are saying, i want to invest in farmland, because i'm getting a better return there and it also may be sets up my family for having an expanded operation in the future and helps with the livelihood of my children. >> they may not like me calling them rich but there is a lot of money, a lot of equity in the farm market right now. farmers are doing really well. >> farmers doing really well. nice to hear that sentence. bill: wait for a moment, rich farmers, is that the case? >> reporter: it is the case, or at least they are working with an awful lot of capitol and you can thank soybean and corn prices. the midwest

we are tracking this with steve liesman, josh brown, josh, what's the best set up for the quart her? >> let's look at where we are relative to the s&p 500 has been health care by a long shot, secondarily, utilities is in the top five and consumer staples, that's not necessarily what you want to see at all-time highs. so i think it will be critical, that technology gets off the map and we see some kind of input here for materials to the upside. we need that rotation to happen for bulls to feel truly comfortable that something truly bigger is at play than just kissing that historic high. >> wise, the non-traditional rallies are the ones we're working right now. what's going to happen as we enter the second quart her? >> in the second quarter we'll have more uncertainty because of europe. so we'll have to take a look at europe to see if their are bottomed out or if they are going to continue to decline. we've gotten good news out of germany and that's the most important news we can get. we got some troubling news out of china in terms of tighter property controls, doing away with the ba

i wish it was a flat tax like jerry brown proposed in 1992 or steve forbes has proposed. best of all but you never want to have the higher rate taxes because you don't get the money and you cause damage to the economy and that's a double loser. dagen: in that survey we referenced at the start of the is heing many, 95% of the economists surveyed thought that the tax rode should be reform with most of them also saying that it should raise in some way more revenue. do you agree with that? would you be comfortable with a tax reform if it raised more revenue? >> i would. i don't specifically want it to raise more revenue static but i surely want it to raise a lot more revenue because it creates economic growth, dagen. that's the key to that. lower rates and broaden the base, if you do that, you're going to get terrific growth in the economy, you're going to collect more taxes and you're going to do it because you get growth, not because you raise rates. raising rates is not the right thing to do. dagen: put some odds on whether we get tax reform before the end of the president
