Talk, talk lauren President Trump meeting with wall street executives this afternoon as investors brace for another whiplash day of trading whavmen. What do investors need r to stop the bleeding or to calm the volatility out there. Todd horowitz is the chief strategist at bubbatrading. Com. He joins us now. Good morning. Good morning,. Lauren were waiting to hear the details of some sort of stimulus package. Why are the substance and timing so unclear . Is that one of the reasons that the market doesnt know what to do . Well, i think, listen, first of all, if you look at the markets in general, weve kind of topped out anyways and we started to see some of this volatility. Investors were looking for a reason to sell and the coronavirus happened to be the trigger point and of course now because of all the media and because i think this is another way for the left to try to push on President Trump, theyre creating much more fear than due. What hes doing is the right steps, bringing in the ceos and saying calm down, were going to figure this out, were going to take care of it and whatever we need to do to help the economy get through this, if we have some loss of business which weve already seen, were going to deal with. Thats what the meeting is all about. Lauren why exactly is the president meeting with heads of our biggest banks today . What can they do . I think he wants to calm everybody down and really take the bull by the horns and say, look, were going to take care of it, were going to resolve the situation, we have everybody working on it and well take care of the economy. Lets not create a bigger fear problem than is already here. We have markets that are weak, besides the coronavirus. We have the early stages of a recession so theres a lot of issues that the president i think is taking a lead as a good ceo would and hes trying to put everybody at ease and make sure that he knows that Going Forward were going to Work Together and get it done and get it fixed. Lauren im going to use your words. You say this is perhaps laying the foundation of a recession. Do you expect the banks to meet with the president today and say okay, were going to allow Small Businesses that are suffering because of the coronavirus or people that cant make their mortgage payment or their credit card payment, were going to defer some of those payments . What exactly can the banks do to fix this . Well, the banks will defer payments. Typically, they dont have a lot of small loans out there. Theyre no not lending to the sl business. Theyre forcing the Small Business to go to higher rate lenders. Its a challenge as a Small Business to borrow money directly from the banks. They dont like working at these very short margins on risk. So theyre usually buying the loans back from a higher rate lender and i think thats another issue the banks are overleveraged as well. Lauren finally, i have 10 seconds here. We were expected to see the biden bounce, he did well in the michigan primary and others last night. Instead, we have a selloff on our hands, the dow is down this morning. Biden is assumed to win now. The only surprise would be a biden loss would create a bigger selloff.

Cheryl joe biden coming off a successful night, widening his lead against Bernie Sanders and winning the key state of michigan. As we head further into the primary season, is there a path forward for Bernie Sanders. Lets bring in political analy analyst, tesla figaro. Look, let me ask you this. He didnt come out and talk last night. Thats the first time he has not addressed supporters after a primary. Is he going to stand down today . If i know anything about senator Bernie Sanders, i know that he is not promath, he is promovement. Even though the math is not working in his favor, i would suspect he will do like he did in 2016 and say every vote should be counted and will continue on through the primary. I do think that more than likely he certainly got a bit of reality, a reality check last night. In 2016, i spent most of my time in michigan. I was there just this past monday, still fostering those relationships and a lot has changed. In 2016 we won only by a percent or two and last night it was a decisive win and joe biden was able to win across the board, white and black voters and every demographic so it did not look well for senator sanders. That was his biggest possibility to move forward. Cheryl well see what the Campaign Says today. You bring up 2016. President trump barely won michigan in 2016. Those young voters did not come out for sanders that he promised last night. And looking forward, the Editorial Board of the journal says this is Twilight Time for Bernie Sanders. But they also point to the fact that turnout was strong in michigan for biden. Not just i mean voter turnout was strong for the party. What does this mean for the general if its biden and trump . When i talk about the general, thats a completely different analysis. Cheryl its time to look forward, dont you think . Well, i mean, the voter turnout went up. But again, trump as we know has a very strong lock on his base as well. So thats a totally different race. I tell people, this what is the democrat the Democrat Party is clearly moving forward with joe biden. Its not just the establishment. It was Bernie Sanders race to lose. When you Start Talking about biden versus trump, now youre changing the dynamic in a completely different race. I tell people all the time, democrats know that socialist would have been the worst thing to run against President Trump but i also tell my conservative friends no worries, youll have plenty of material with joe biden. [ laughter ] so well have to see. A lot will change as we move forward. That will be a very interesting race. Cheryl the Trump Campaign did put out a statement after the results last night. They said it is clear that the democrat establishment rallied around the confused joe biden in an effort to deny the nomination to Bernie Sanders. Are you worried as a democrat that thats going to taint the race moving forward . In a general, again, in a general. The partys been fractured for the last four years. So this is nothing new. I do credit democrat establishment with some of it, that goes into some of the play. But its really honestly not all of it. Bernie sanders started out with more volunteers, more individual donations, more folks on the ground. Hes been running for five years. At the end of the day, even though i work for senator sanders, im not a socialist. Thats the bottom line. I always said that. At the end of the day, most americans are not socialists, most are independents, most are moderate, most are center, a lot of folks are center left. And folks know that that is just not the message that is going to do well in a general election. Doesnt mean that joe biden is the best candidate. Ive criticized him as being a terrible candidate, obviously. But when it comes down to having to choose between those two, democrats seem to have made a very clear choice. Cheryl the older democratic establishment that youre mentioning, they came out and voted in michigan yesterday and it was for biden. Teslin, always great to have you on the show. Please come back. Thank you so much. Lauren lets take a look at futures this morning. After an 1100 point rally yesterday, giving some of that back today, dow down 391 points, s p down 51, the ecb is warning of a 2008 type of crisis if the central bank does not act and we expect some movement by that agency.

People were nervous, many deciding not to travel. Airlines are taking a major hit as a result. How bad is this expected to get . We have the president of the aviation agency, brian del monte with us today. Brian, good morning. Good morning. Lauren how bad is this going to get . Is this a 9 11 type situation . I hear that routinely and i am actually here in charlotte at a conference of schedulers and dispatchers and im talking with Business Aviation and commercial aviation and i keep hearing this feels like 9 11. So well have to see. I think its early yet. But you have Major Airlines reducing their capacity. You have airline after airline basically issuing new warnings in terms of the Earnings Guidance and theres a lot of fear and uncertainty on both sides of the airplane at the moment. Lauren we hear that there are tsa agents on the west coast that have the coronavirus. Were talking amongst ourselves in studio. Our stage manager is a little nervous about an upcoming flight that she is still planning to go on. Someone next to me is probably canceling a trip. I have a question mark on one of my trips. What do you say to people . This is something that people are talking about every single day. I mean, are the airplanes clean . Is there an issue like lets say you can go to florida, everythings fine. Did the situation change back in new york so much so that you cant get back in . I dont have good answers to those questions. What i can speak to is ill tell you my own experience flying in. My plane was pretty full and Charlotte Airport was pretty full. I think people are theres a lot of fear, right. Its hard to understand, in part because of all the conflicting information were getting about how to react to this. You know, is a plane safe . There are a lot of measures on aircraft in order to even without coronavirus to reduce the transmission of illness, so i personally didnt feel afraid getting on a plane. I wouldnt i guess we dont know, right. I mean, you raise a good point. If i travel to florida and i want to go to new york, am i going to be able to get to new york. The short answer is im not sure how thats going to work. I dont know. Lauren the airlines are basically saying look, we conserved cash, were taking all these steps to make sure we dont need a bailout. But do you thinks theyre going to need think theyre going to need a bailout . Well, it would seem so. I think the airlines are doing the things they need to do. I think everyones trying to be very cautious and do the right things here. But if we see a precipitous dropoff in travel, how and its not going to be just the airlines. Hospitality, the travel industry, theres a lot of industries affected by all this. So i would think so, yes. Lauren brian, thank you very much for coming on and also thank you. Lauren giving us a little calmness that i think we need this morning. Thank you. Thank you. Cheryl im happy to go to the caribbean right now. Lauren shes already buying her ticket. I hope you got it cheap. Cheryl a new report says the u. S. Is not equipped to handle major cyber attacks, that report set to request released later set to be released later today. Lauren brett larson is here for the details. Its a bit troubling but not surprising that the government is not prepared to deal with a Cyber Security attack. Weve seen this happen in some smaller communities where their data centers or their civics office or whatever is taken over by a hacker and theyre held at ransomware attacks, weve seen several of those over the past couple months. This report basically lays all of that out, says were not prepared for it, says congress should create separate committees to deal just with Cyber Security. The committees that put this report together arguing amongst themselves on the language of what they had to talk about with Cyber Security. Theres a lot of things at play here. When we think about Cyber Security, most of us think about Online Banking or changing our password or what have you. When were talking about Financial Institutions cheryl talking about the u. S. Government. The u. S. Government. Cheryl the military, the pentagon, the irs. This is this report is going to be big. Yeah. Cheryl serious. Farreaching implications across the board. Our governments not designed to handle Something Like this. Washington likes to juststatus quo, were going to continue to do things the way were doing it. You mentioned the irs. Theyre a huge target for hackers because they have all of our financial information. People have been known to submit phony tax returns to get the money back from random people. They steal your Social Security number, they file a bogus tax claim, they get your money. These are things that are actively happening. Cheryl its also an election year, brett. I mentioned that earlier. Do we need to worry about the structure of our electoral system . The electoral system in our country is so fractured in that different communities vote in different ways. Some people are using paper ballots, some are using computer voting. It doesnt have a paper trail which i dont think is generally a good idea. We dont have National Infrastructure on voting. Its good in a way because theres not one target to go after. Its bad in a way because then you have all of these other targets to go after. If everybody is using, say, Voting Machines from diebold and you know how to hack into that and you know which communities are using those, its a pretty round and easy summation to get in there and hack a voting machine. Lauren sometimes having different systems is beneficial, albeit confusing. Thank you very much. Cheryl you can catch brett on fox News Headlines 24 7, sirius xm channel 115. Well, the u. S. Is deploying Missile Defense systems to iraq in the wake of the attack targeting american troops by iran.

Valerie, why is there such a discriminatory attitude about hiring employees 20 is a low numnumber. It is a low number. We im t aim to show employers e adaptive equipment we use to show they can convert offices, buy something that costs like 50 and thats all somebody with a disability might need to do their job and they would get the best employee they ever had. Cheryl chris, what is the best part do you think about working for somebody like valerie, who as you said really believed in you. Ive known her for 14, 15 years and we did really cool group together.

Thats where i think this is going to land, in that maybe the midpoint, not at the high end but the five years, i dont see that happening in any way, shape or form. Cheryl well be curious to see if he speaks today in court. He never spoke out in his defense. He can talk today, though. Absolutely. Cheryl should he . Look, thats a decision that his Defense Attorneys are going to have to make. Its going to depend on his mindset, whether or not hes going to make a compelling case to the judge. Remember, defense presents whats called mitigating factors. Youre going to be hit with two victim impact statements today and thats always very influential. Judges would like for him to speak but if his attorneys think it would be to his detriment remember, in public statements he made, he didnt seem too remorseful. You want to show remorse. If i was his attorney and i had a question mark, probably better to let your attorney speak for you. Cheryl i wonder if his attorneys will bring up the fact were learning he reached out to jeff bezos and Michael Bloomberg to try to save his career. Hail mary at the very end. Cheryl lets talk about the cruise ship lawsuit. This couple now that was on the grand princess has filed suit against Princess Cruises. This is the first of probably many. They say they were they never, ever would have gotten on that cruise if they had thought there was a risk to their health. Do they have a case . Look, i think they do have a case. I think this is just the tip of the iceberg. Theres going to be so much litigation coming out of the coronavirus. Now, their argument, its a negligence case, it says the cruise line did not act reasonably because they knew there were people on the cruise that had been exposed and they failed to take action to protect other passengers. Now, look, from a defense perspective, theyre going to talk about the way corona has spread, the fact that its a pandemic, theyre going to call it whats called an act of god, theyre going to say we didnt have control over the situation. But these cases are going to survive, cheryl. Theyre going to get litigated. Cheryl does it become class action. I 100 think that it will. There will be so many lawsuits regarding this cruise line. I think were going to see many more coming out of it, class action lawsuit. This was filed on behalf of individuals. The reports indicate theres actually an attorney already working up a class action case thats been speaking to particular passengers. Cheryl do you think the Airline Industry executives should be nervous about lawsuit as well . Have they done enough to protect us to fly . You make a really great point. I absolutely think were going to see lawsuits against Industries Like the Airline Industry. One of the reasons you see so many corporations, the Airlines Taking precautions and putting it out there so that if god forbid something happens they can say we took precautions, we took these steps which we deemed to be necessary but we couldnt prevent it entirely but we took these steps. But theres going to be so much litigation on so many different fronts sprouting out of the coronavirus. Its something were going to see as this continues to unfold. Cheryl keep your cell phone on. I will, i will. Cheryl well be calling you soon. All right, thank you. Over to you. Lauren lets take a look at u. S.
