we remember t.j. maxx had a same issue. the information has been optimized. to watch your credit report very carefully. police several times a year, engage and credit monitoring to make sure that your identity has not been stolen. gerri: i just can't get over that. talking a little bit more about this cloak and dagger world. why don't they show these marketplaces down, why's it so easy for hackers to roam around and get all of our data? >> well, these are online marketplaces and you have these underground forums that you have to be vetted into. so you can't show up in the side to buy it. you have to be a trusted member of the community. and as you build up your reputations you can start by cards and stolen information and the software that you can use in these attacks. and the fbi and the secret service they do manage to shut some of these down particularly if they are outside of russia. but they just move to somewhere else. so at the end of the day the internet is a big place. you can operate one of these very easily. so we just see it migrating from one pla

the way to think about this is what happened with t.j. maxx a few years back. it was terrible.ook a hit. but everyone understood, this is a wake-up call. they'll get their act together. tagger will be fine. the reason it didn't sell off is because nobody thinks this will be a huge mission. >> target will be fine if you believe in target's fundamentals. >> target fundamentals are challenging, especially the headwinds from canada. around $60, there's long-term support for this company. this is not target's problem. it's everybody's problem. and getting back to rsi, this stock is oversold. it's trading at 30 rsi. you take a shot with limited downside. >> the term polar vortex, following a record-breaking blast of cold air. now another arctic chill could hit the midwest as early as tomorrow. how should you trade the frigid weather. let's bring in dennis gartman. good to see you. >> good to be seen. >> for most people out there, they think of a cold snap, they think of ung. look at how ung, it has not done well as the temperatures drop. what gives here? >> well, you've got a problem

this instance, the only other breach like this is t.j. maxx, a number of years ago.s organized, it was with multiple groups that worked together to hit all the different retail stores. it's a trend just starting in 2014. where hackers go, that's where the blood goes. a magic unicorn in the security industry and it wouldn't happen to them. you have these soft inside squishy networks they have, point of sale systems which aren't touched because they generate revenue. this is just the beginning. we'll see harger heists and larger credit card disclosures as well as other things hackers target this year. >> lovely. well, have a nice night, guys. seriously, thank you very much for the heads up. >>> and did any of hear about the former transportation secretary making the round for hiking the gift tax? everywhere he went most interviews seemed to be obliges, smiling, agreeing, until the good secretary stopped here. >> that's what we've always done in america. >> all right. we also account for the monies we spend in america. we'll see, mr. secretary. >> we'll see. >> we'll se
