to unlike the july brent --gilli --gillibrand and mccaskill amendments, there were no objection so weaverd in both bills in terms of sexual assault even though article 32 languages not limited to sexual assault it is limited to the use of that procedure for discovery which creates unfair problems for people who are victims or the complainants so we were able to get an agreement that we should address that but we could not get agreement that we would address either the gillibrand or mccaskill amendments but they are free standing bills. i talked to senator harry reid and so has senator gillibrand and senator mccaskill because all of us want to vote on those matters even though in these bills there are major improvements in the area of sexual assault for instance, will give you some of them again. one of them is retaliation is the crime. threat of retaliation is one of the reasons they do not report. the insults or improper context for sexual behavior. we make in this bill that will be introduced in the next couple days and the senate retaliation is a crime, we also point the direction for

the devotees of weaver programs and others that are designed to facilitate travel have the security component and we do want the government to give a thumbs up or down based on the information available and this is very hard for them to do legally because to dig through the data bases that are not connected right now but to share risk assessments that they doubt they are able to do so there is a way forward on this and we think that they can solve these problems but we think there are some urgency's to it. >> the cost of doing business is quite it could be high gear and brazilians and largely due to the price available another is the tax regime and where to set up the production. where do they find the aggregate for these and are they making it easier and facilitating the process of doing business in brazil so it's not like a five or seven year timeframe or ten years plus. >> it's not just people coming in from the outside but one of the striking things about that is if you are based in brazil it needs to be addressed to promote not just from helping generate increased growth but also the gro

>> weaver been in motorcycle with victory brand.ty is excellent. we built a great engineering team, great supply team operational team and we took that learning and built an all new indian motorcycle. the style points continuing to give back to heritage of the original bikes. >> we were just talking as well about general motors which had to be bailed out by the u.s. taxpayer five years ago. five years ago was around the time you were coming into the company. i mean how opportunistic were you then and how much convincing did it take for people to stick with you stick to the turn-around plan and get to where we are today? >> i remember being here in march and our stock was at 2k9 $9 and today we closed at all-time high. it was because we had so many great people to fight through that recession. we didn't get any government bailouts but we took a lot of cost out of our company and put a lot of savings back into innovation. we consider ourselves an innovation company. we put 4% of revenues back into r&d every year consistently. lately a

>> how weaver been structuring portfolios is for rising interest rates. our portfolios have a core component to them, we also complement that with credit which tends to be positively correlated to rising rates and managers who have benchmark agnostic strategy who can be more nimble during this time period. if we see a rise in interest rates to 150 basis points, i would consider moving back into negatively correlated assets at that point because of the steepness in the curve and attractiveness. >> a lot of people have been talking about negatively correlated assets, like real estate. to the point rick was making isn't there such a thing? don't these prices move reflecting other developments happening across the economy? >> yes but largely what you'll be watching for is earnings. we're about to come into fourth quarter earning season. we're positive on that. we think guidance has been down enough that we'll get a decent report in the fourth quarter. 2014 looks good to us with earnings on the s&p at $116. i think rick is scared of the boogey man, $4 trillion

jenna: in the meantime, weaver showing some of -- we're showing some of the greatest hits, a highlighthings he's been through. he's admitted he broke the law and he smoked crack, and there's video of it, but yet there still have been no charges over it. and that's a little confusing. if you break the law and there's video of it, why would there be no charges? >> you know what? it's a very good point, and the layperson says, what are you doing, canadian government? why don't you arrest this guy? the bottom line is they don't know what he smoked. just because he's pounding on the table saying i smoked crack cocaine, they don't have it which means they can't test it, they would never get past the verdict because they don't have the goods, and for that reason i do not think he's going to be arrested for any drug-related charge. jenna: phil, do you get the sense that maybe there's even a bigger story somehow behind it, that maybe the goal of the law enforcement is to go after this drug ring? it just seems a little bit confusing about where the priority is in this case in general. >> i think

had this fourth -- this revision for the third quarter gdp, 4.1% first time since december of 2011 weaver had a 4.0 handle on the gdp and yet the bond market just sits there today. what's going on? >> the bond market is in recalculate mode. on the yield curve it's position logistics. look at two-year it's up four basis point. five-year, it's up 14 basis point. ten-year virtually unchanged. there's your readjustment. dollar up a whole handle. simply stated, i think stocks can go up a lot more, too. but on that exit better be one darn big door because everybody will get the same idea at the same time. we just don't know when. >> let's happen if that's not for a longer period of time bill? i guess that's the question. >> yes, it is. i've got to write this down this date rick santelli made a prognostication on the stock market and it's much higher from here. i love that. thanks, folks. have a good weekend. appreciate that. have a merry christmas. >> merry christmas to everybody. >> thank you. >> a little more than half an hour to go in this "closing bell" session. we have to look at major ind

the weavers often work in conflict with one another. sometimes they are just that far apart that the problem is your the person caring for a family member that is in that little space between the two waivers. door in trouble. you're not sick enough for this or to wealthy for that. so this notion of a much simpler approach to the waivers is one that was endorsed by the commission. the other concern was raised on that obviously is the issue of individual protections, beneficiary protections that the waivers deliver on the services that need to be provided. so in that balancing test is how do you create the kind of flexibility is that you get programs like some of the ones we have heard from the also make sure that in the process of providing more flexibility that we are not actually losing services for those who need them and that there is adequate oversight. >> just to follow on that point, my experience in reviewing waivers and thinking about ways in which the federal government could do a better job of the flexibility has been that ove
