Dagen very big overseas. Connell we will talk to jo ling kent in a minute. Good morning. Volatility has been what we have seen recently. We are still in nonvolatile time. Right now we are seeing a pattern with lots of green arrows across the board. The Dow Jones Industrials up. Almost a half of 1 . Just like the tech heavy nasdaq. The s p is getting walmart with some tough numbers out. Back to you. Dagen whats app. That is how you are supposed to say it. Connell some mixed reviews from the analysts. 19 billion is what facebook is paying for what app. According to early investors whats app adds 1 million users every single day. The stock is actually down 2. 2 . They see a higher costs and delivering engagement. Theyre taking a more positive stance. The strategic rationale is sound. Here is something i loved researching. He tweets hear all about it. It is amazing how things change. It is. Tac is something a lot of people are talking about. We bring Michael Bloch in. Good to see you. What is your first reaction . My first thought is i am not a whats app user. I do see that there could be merits here. You are right. Sometimes we are out of it on these types of things. It is a lot of money. It is money that they do have. They have time warner and aol merging. Connell remember that big News Conference that they had. Right now we are not looking at valuations that are overstretched. Time will tell if that makes sense. Connell you use the expression. What is the time we are in right now . Right now i think we are in sure time. It is not silly time. Nothing is really stretched ear. We have come a long way in equity markets. We had a jump down in january. Turkish currency moves should not really affect us, but yet it did. Connell just a pullback that we needed. I do think that we are moving around. I do think that the Global Central Bank policy is remaining easy. I think that means a lot here. It does not mean that we are going straight up. Connell not as concerned about the fed. We kind of know what we are dealing with their. His concern was china. Is that still chief among your issues . First of all, i do not have a pet issue. I think that they will remain easy here. I do not think that they will tighten rates until after the 2016th president ial election. I think for political reasons that just will not happen. Connell that will help stocks . Do you have any big worries . I am not worried about growth. My noise concerned, my shortterm concern is that some of the Wealth Management stocks have turned into a torrent that becomes a distraction. It could create some noise which could create your kind of five five7 corrections that will be a problem. Connelll good talking. Now you know what whats app is. Dagen another major roadblock. A judge striking down a nebraska law that allowed though pipeline to proceed through the state. Connell what will it mean for thousands of jobs. Monica crowley joins us now with the latest. Now there is another legal obstacle in the way of building this pipeline in addition to all of the obstacles we have seen so far. It is a setback. It will be challenged. Dagen it has already been five years. I guess the domestic agenda was focused on the oil in north dakota and montana. A lot of that oil is now moving in other ways because Oil Companies that are getting it out of the ground could not wait for this. That is right. Transcanada has said we will ship it to china. We will ship it to other places. A lot of the unions want this. We have this legal also call that will delay us even further. I know the judge is holding it up now. At some point you still get the feeling that it does get done. Look, obamas own state department issued a statement two weeks ago saying there is not really a significant degree. It has been under review for five years. Every kind of examination on the keystone pipeline. It is all found to be perfectly okay. In every way, this is such a nobrainer. Just one obstacle after another. Connell it is always great to see you, monica. Twice in one day. It off to a start. The big story overseas continues to be what happened yesterday. We will have details what we come back. Dagen president obama facing resistance from his own party. We talked exclusively about that. Connell from the world of retail. Gasoline. A bandaid from the government to do that. We will tell you how much coming up on markets now. Connell we are back here at a quarter after the hour. Dagen at the world watches as the violence escalates in ukraines capital city. Earlier truth cookware by the russia backed president was quickly showered as fresh gunfire quickly hit the streets. At least 70 people have been killed during clashes today. There are also reports that demonstrators have taken 67 Police Officers captive. They are continuing to burn as several thousand protesters remained at the square. The white house now weighs in. The administration urging ukraines president to withdraw forces and allow demonstrators to express themselves. Dennis raising the hourly pay to nine dollars an hour. This move will increase pay for 65,000 of its 90,000 employees across all of its u. S. Store brands. Dagen i think it is about 10. 50 an hour. They are about 20 states that have a minimum wage higher than the federal minimum wage anyway. What may have been nationwide. Connell makes him more money. Dagen here are your favorite twins. Not the olsens. Making a big bet on. Connell the disappointing data in china. Europe raising concerns about the global economy. Big news for peter. First, lets get into currencies.

Whether its building the worlds most advanced satellite, e space station, or the next leap in unmanned systems. At boeing, one thing never changes. Our passion to make it real. My dad has aor afib. Brillation, he has the most common kind. Its not caused by a heart valve problem. Da it says your afib puts you at 5 times greater risk of a stroke. Thats why i take my warfarin every day. But it looks like maybe we should ask your doctor about pradaxa. In a clinical trial, pradaxa® Dabigatran Etexilate mesylate . Was proven superior to warfarin at reducing the risk of stroke. And unlike warfarin,ith no regular blood tests or dietary restrictions. Hey thanks for calling my doctor. Sure. Pradaxa is not for people with artifial heart valv. Dont stop taking pradaxa without talking to your doctor. Stopping increases your risk of stroke. Ask your doctor if you need to stop pradaxa before surgery or a medical or dental procedure. Pradaxa can cause serious, sometimes fatal, bleeding. Dont take pradaxa if you ve abnormal bleeding or have had a heart valve replaced. Seek immediate medical care for unexpected signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Pradaxa may increase your bleeding risk if youre 75 or older, have a bleeding condition or stomach ulcer, take aspirin, nsaids, or blood thinners. Or if you have kidney problems, especially if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctors about all medicines you take. Pradaxa side effects include indigestion, stomach pain, upset, or burning. If you or someone you love has afib not caused by a heart valve problem. Ask your doctor about reducing the risk of stroke with pradaxa. So ally bank has a that wothats correct. A rate.

How far these stocks have come particularly in the last year. This year they will do 400 million. It is just a money making machine. They have a strong pipeline. They deal with seven of the top homebuilders in the country. I just think that the stock will go higher. This is one of these things. There are two things. Connell you have been up front about it. Charles it is a top priority. Dagen a very large chunk. Exactly. Charles walmart is complaining that cutting food stamp is the problem. Connell you would never invest anything controlled by the wiggle boss twins. Charles i would not. I have drawn a very firm line with that. The great wall of china. Dagen they are creepy. Charles too creepy for me. Facebook lawsuits. They say Mark Zuckerberg stole the idea from them. That is what you get when you try to win one over on a nerd. We have a new bitcoin venture. They have launched their own pricing index. Connell that is funny. Charles they could have come up with a better name than that. Dagen it is a blended price index.

Groupon over the last year is up 80 . That has been a stellar performer. Hewlettpackard two. Priceline up over 85 in the last year or so. Recently hitting some new highs. Watch these five names today. We will bring you all the news pertaining to each of these companies. Back to you. Dagen thank you, nicole. Dagen peter barnes is live from the white house with an exclusive interview. Peter. That is right. We are here to talk trade with mike from and who was with the president in mexico. We are looking for a briefing on what happened yesterday in mexico, particularly on this trans atlantic partnership. Did you make any progress . Clearly one of the areas is working well in the transpacific partnership. This is 12 countries representing e are down to some very difficult issues at the end of the day. We are all working very hard to bring it to a close. You should be able to get a deal on this trade agreement this year. Will that happen . We will make as much progress as we can, as quickly as we can. A High Standard ambitious comprehensive agreement. All countries are focused on the major gaps. There are issues like agriculture access to japan, access to canada. Then there are the issues of the standards. Putting disciplines. Strengthening intellectual property rights. The digital economy. Creating new rules for the digital economy. A lot has happened over the last 20 years. This is our opportunity to upgrade. Raising labor standards. It is a great opportunity. Let me ask you about mexico. The president said he told the Prime Minister that there is a process that the United States is working through. The president made clear that the process that the United States government is involved and to make a determination. The big trans atlantic trade agreement you are trying to negotiate with the european union, the eu and you just started those talks in the last year or so. You met this week with an eu negotiator on that. What is the progress on that deal . It is coming along well. We see many of the issues in similar ways. The focus of our discussion this week was on new issues. That involves bringing together two wellregulated markets. Finding ways without compromising the level of health, safety and environmental protection. This allows you to get deals. A lot of democrats are concerned about environmental and work place standards. Republicans are worried about giving the president more powers. Are you going to get fasttrack authority this year through congress . It is an election year. Twelve years ago, this is an opportunity for congress to update its roles. Talking to members about the transpacific partnership. They understand what it is that we are working towards or negotiating. Dagen and connell, watch for that. Developing news in the world of our central bank. Just rescheduling its hearing. Janet yellen. A week from today is when she will appear. It may raise shortterm Interest Rates. What does former atlanta said executive Vice President at Cumberland Advisors think . The market did not read the minutes correctly. The fed has a tapering process. After each meeting. That means the process will not be completed until around december 2014. They are fairly precise about saying they intended to keep rates low for a period of time beyond that. That puts it about the middle of 2015 which is pretty consistent with what Dennis Lockhart said the other day. Dagen it is odd that some investors reacted the way they did to the minutes. Is a Communications Problem in the making . It still keeps people on edge a little bit. What the rate change process would be. They are focusing on other dimensions of the Labor Department. They are very neevous about this. They had that 6. 5 trigger. That is what people are focusing on when they read the minutes. Dagen one at a moveup and longerterm Interest Rates do more damage to a still recovering economy been moving up shortterm Interest Rates . The Federal Reserve not directly controlling Interest Rates. One of the big links is to the Housing Market and Mortgage Rates. If you start seeing an uptick in Mortgage Rates because longterm rates are going up, then, yes, that will put downward pressure on the Housing Market. In particular areas where it has not been recovering as fast as florida and california and other places. Dagen bob, good to see you. Be well. Thank you. Connell blockbuster. It is not what it once was. Why is anyone in this business . Well, we will find out from our guest coming up. Dagen guess what i did in college. Manage video stores. Connell we will be right back.

I do not know what else to do. We have only had one down year in 30 years. That was then 2004. Our samestore sales are still up. Connell why . Given the trends that i do not go out and rent as many videos as they once did. Using netflix or as many as we once did. There are so many other ways to do it digitally that we do not frequent the stores. It does not seem to make logical sense. I do not think people realize, we get movies 30 days before redbox and netflix. I think that people still like to connect. People like to be there for a long time. People come in. They see their friends. They see other kids and family members. They have a great time in our stores. Connell to her pizza place works and with the video ssores. We have 51.

Netflix, they will not get hot movies for six months after us. They really are a subscription model. They base that on tv. You are subscribing to tv shows. I do not even think netflixs streaming competition for us. Absolutely. What we have done is, you know, we own all of our real estate. We take our stores and slowly chop them up. I do not see that happening. It does not mean in six years it will be over. Connell i do not know if dying businesses right, but if you get people on thanks a lot for coming on. Thank you.

We had to digest a mixed bag of economic news, we are a little weaker than expected but the p. M. I numbers and manufacturing numbers are better than expected. We came off of tough economic numbers from china and weaker manufacturing. Verizon, exxon, the best performers on the Dow Jones Industrials, people wanting to take some chances today, there are plenty of up arrows, the board, down 16,107, the ticket in nasdaq up 1 4 , the s p up 1 4 . A few larger than the dow including walmart. Cheryl we will watch that throughout the day. We will see you in a little bit. It is one of the biggest price tags on the startup, facebook buying what is apps for 19 billion, mixed reviews from wall street analysts, following this story. The latest move to accomplish two things, increase focus on mobile First Technology and by a businesses for the strategy, the offensive actions, and photo sharing, and facebook messenger. The ceo, 415 million monthly active users and 70 of those users active every single day, 1. 2 billion users for facebook and 62 daily active users. Mark zuckerberg paying 19 billion, a huge amount of new users and return, plus new ones every single day. Facebook was in competition for google, fortune reporting the search giant offered 10 billion for the mobile messenger, look at another messageing related stocks, blackberry is up more than 5 . Late last year the Company Finally opened up its android users, they had 18 million users which pales in comparison to what is apps and the Public Market leader for social discovery is up 14 now. Looking at china, the mobile messaging service, to what we chat, that stock was down 22 3 . Looking at analyst coverage, we downgraded the stock, 44 analysts, 4437 have a buyer, strong buy rating on this apps. Cheryl jo lin king from the newsroom and this deal. Thank you very much. Lets stay with this deal between facebook and what is apps and bring in our panel, oliver portia, gary goldberg, ted harris, and Charles Payne helping make some money on this, all talking about this 19 billion deal. Id start with you. What is the buzz about this . And facebook, tough road for facebook over the last year. It was a tough ipo, stock is up sharply, we dont own the stock, not the type the we invest in, it is all about mobility and advertising revenue so i think what facebook is doing is Smart Business strategy in line with what other companies that doing, just a very exciting new domain and that is what people are abuzz about. Liz does this help facebook . Does it make it more Attractive Company . Charles absolutely. This is not just from them being 1dimensional because oliver mentioned advertising. A straight at deal, we provide a service. Make that 1 billion in the blink of an eye. This is growing by leaps and bounds. The ideal weather they pay too much is so irrelevant this is amazing stuff, why Companies Like microsoft, four horseman Technology Stocks comfortable with it, where they are repeat centric and you have some young entrepreneurs out there between elon musk and Mark Zuckerberg who know they have to do this to keep going and it is amazing in my mind. Cheryl will we see more deals like that and one 19yearolds out of the alarm rooms. Close enough, they are young and billionaires. I you excited about the group . We dont own facebook. Mark zuckerberg, it is a natural fit. If it is in the wrong hands. Seems to be a big Customer Base that they can leverage. And i need to see the monetize that. Cheryl you say that can happen. Charles the instagram thing help them out but. They will lose the young people because parents were getting at it. Young people were going to instagram and a step ahead of the game. This was not just a gutsy move. I jumped on to Mark Zuckerbergs bandwagon. I jumped on that bandwagon. Maybe some of the things about the monitors asian of mobile but every question asked of this young company, young public company, they answered in most of the financing before the bell so i think it they are going to do great with this. From investment perspective is important to understand this is exciting and could be very exciting to watch, to witness, to the heart of it you are whats app customer doesnttmake it a great investment. These testings we can caution investors to say when theres a lot of buzz that means volatility. Cheryl we are old enough to remember the technology bust, the internet bust, we are all adults. We did not know what whats app was. Does that make ou cautious at all . Definitely. Aol timewarner merger was a great example. That was a bust. I would say Good Companies often need to acquire to grow and at some point they will become attractive enough to invest in. For example qualcomm was a company that in its heyday sold for 200 times earnings. I thought it was a quality to crap kind of play and the market rotated into stocks like that. Our own qualcomm for the past 12 years, the Company Became a very stable, mature, good company and has done pretty well. Maybe we will see that. Cheryl what about google . They are off of the bidding war. Charles it is of bidding war. Dont know how many prizes are out there like whats app but we will see the mend google what theyre doing is going for a lot of Different Things and a lot of stuff they are trying dow will fail. By the same token one of these things is almost like a publicly traded public venture or venturecapital firm. They have their sights on the next big topic. Cheryl buy office space in downtown san francisco. As you point out in this segment, what whats app the common competitor of facebook, unlikely to be the case with google. To pay a significant premium, i have no idea what it should be valued at, something we will not concern ourselves with but it is a different business model. We own google and think it is a terrific growth company, executing, if they had the Company Expected to grow by over 25 , that is a company we want to own, that is the type charles never look at facebook. Cheryl good point. Anything else in technology you like t you are watching . It is the dark, it looks attractive, some growth issues recently but the Company Still seems to have a great product cycle they are in. We like qualcomm as well as emc which is boring as well. We see great things ahead for storage. Technology cheryl do you own qualcomm personally . Do you own emc personally . Through our mutualfund. Cheryl not you personally. Want to get that disclosure out. Oliver portia, Charles Payne, thank you very much. The wolf of wall streets causing even more controversy. One of the reallife lawyers portrayed in the movie is asking for the film to be removed from theaters and your personal information is at risk if hackers attack big businesses and even universities but there might be a way to fight back and make some money while you are doing it coming up. Cheryl dow 72, looking at cocacola, annual Dividend Increase for this company, the stock at 3742, dallas 2 points, the dow higher by 72, the Company Offering 0. 20 a share, thirty. Five cents per share. That is the Dividend Increase for cocacola. That came out of the minutes ago. Bring in Nicole Petallides for the Stock Exchange. Nicole a lead story today is the fact that facebook acquiring whats app for 19 billion, that is a few moves. What about the other names in the business . Watching blackberry on this news. How much these messaging services are worth, it is very popular, and target of 950. It is sitting at 950. They could get more money than people regionally fought for their very popular messaging service and that is why were seeing blackberry been down. We know that for a fact the base on the news we are seeing, the acquisition of whats app, what does that mean . Thank you. A string of death and suicide has the financial world on edge. A person dies under mysterious circumstances. Liz macdonald joins us now, the story were looking at. She reportedly jumped from a skyscraper in hong kong. Jpmorgan chase is where she worked, the third death at Jpmorgan Chase in recent weeks. The first suicide, suicide was not at. Bank. We dont know if it was a suicide yet.

Then there were others at Deutsche Bank and other mysterious deaths. We have a statement from Jpmorgan Chase, and they are not commenting on whether these deaths are suicides. Jpmorgan says says the tragic incident occurred at hong kong tuesday, investigated by the police, it cannot comment further. We cant link of these seven. Nearly 8 Million People work in the finance industry in the United States the run. 800 Million People work in Automotive Industry around the world. I tell you something. It is odd that these deaths had been in rapid succession since december. Cheryl go back to the stories from the great depression. The stock market crash, in new york, you can understand why financial ruin and does stearns turn certain people to commit suicide. The point is well taken weekend link this. Liz i will tell you how the Companies Respond, the timeline of the mysterious deaths, youll see this in december, the first is robert wilson, and. A bank in here and Russell Investments and jpmorgan. Here is what the Companies Respond and this is according to an executive i spoke to who was a top level led citigroup and individual at Jpmorgan Chase. They go through their individualss computers and laptops and tablets to figure out whether is stress related, did something trigger it, was there an email they were upset about in terms of Company Action against them in terms whatever it could be. The fact that theres a string of 7 deaths since december is noteworthy but should be taken in the context of hundreds of thousands of people, millions who worked in finance, motors around the world. We have to put it in that context. Cheryl great job, liz macdonald.

Cheryl new and existing home sales receive a lot of headlines but only a fraction of Residential Housing recovery. Equally important trends in to repair remodel segment which measure how expenditures, joining me for a special series, the business of real estate, is the chief economist of the American Institute of architects. It is good to see you. I find it interesting that one of the big things we are seeing right now is the baby boom generation is changing their homes so they can live their days out at home. How big a part of the business is that for you . That is the huge market and will be big. The number of baby boomers age 65 plus is almost going to double between 2010 and 2003 as the baby boom enters the market. Most stay in their current home. Older homes dont accommodate accessibility so they have to do some fairly significant retrofits to make sure they meet their needs moving forward. Cheryl maybe not so much the baby boom generation that cash on hand. Overall modeling, where is the model coming from. Theres a financial crunch in the lending market. Where are they getting the cash to do these remodels . They are equally tight on the homeequity lending side too. Households are using cash to pay for Home Improvements something something they have done traditionally but 70 of spending on Home Improvements is on a cash basis so that limits the amount they can spend, makes the more cost conscious in terms of products they undertake an end up with tight budgets. Cheryl one of the things we are seeing in the new york area to the region specific is technology in the home not just for the Younger Generation but overall, anything new or something perhaps gutted in the new york area people are selling ipads, we have seen that in the magazines in new york. Is that a National Trend or something that is happening in cities like new york . That is national. Home automation will be one of the fastestgrowing segments in this market moving forward and with the recent news of google buying nest and being involved in this market we will see a lot of changes in the next few years. In terms of the types of products offered and in terms of consumer interest in getting more involved in this area. Cheryl Energy Efficiency is the other thing because of tax credits being offered. A big proponent of the model market. We talked to contractors who say 30 of their projects have Energy Efficiency motivation in them. That was very big as you mentioned during the downturn because of tax credits associated with it. Concern is with the increase in Domestic Production of energy and likely of latter price moving forward. This will continue to be a driver of homeimprovement spending and we will see that as the market unfolds and Energy Prices unfold. Cheryl good for Companies Like lowes and home depot in general. Also curious about the rental market. There has been a huge bloom in the rental market in the last two years on the heels of a recession. Is that big Home Improvement space . That rental market . It hasnt been over the last few years. Theres focus of home ownership. The renters share of the market climbing from 31 to 35 over the last decade, 35 of households are renters and the stock largely hasnt been invested in. There is a lot of upgrading that needs to take place and that is going to be and is already a very hot market. Cheryl the madmen generation, 1916s remodels and stuff like that, fun stuff happening out there. It is interesting about the fat happening now. Thank you very much.

Nebraska judge overturned a 2012 law that allows the governor to approve the route of the keystone l pipeline through nebraska. The ruling leaves the decision in the hands of the state Public Service commission. National Transportation Safety board is looking at pilot fatigue as a factor in the deadly crash of a ups cargo jet. A cockpit voice recorder transcript shows the pilots complained about hiring work both pilots were killed when the plane slammed into a hillside short of a runway in alabama. That is the latest from the Fox Business Network giving you the power to prosper. Cheryl pictures this. It is snowing and you are stuck in new york, d. C. Boston and need a place to sleep. My next guest is aiming to revolutionize how the book their rooms and give shelter to you if you need it. Jerrod simon is the cofounder and see 00, thank you for bbing here. I want to start with that. You have an apps that lets people book rooms, that warning for that night given deals but did you see a lot of activity in the northeast over the last month . Incredible. The last several months and certainly our experience over the last several years these weather events are interesting for us particularly, in the last few weeks the variable weather, even the super bowl, variable weather, really interesting opportunities for us and we are bringing some interesting deals to people as a result. Cheryl 10 that are desperate but happier customers or business travelers so is an apps on i i phone or samsung that lets me book a hotel, 9 00 that morning local time. The deals are out there. How many rooms go on sold every day . On average in the u. S. About 40 of Hotel Inventory goes unsold. It is a Staggering Amount of inventory available same day. Cheryl that is very high and you have 9 million users. 9 million users worldwide. We have launched 17 countries around the world. Cheryl you have been signing up partnerships with a lot of hotel companies. Now new Venture Capital coming in and funding from starwood, not the hotel chain but the financing sight. Talk to me about the funding coming in and what you see this company doing in the future . What is going on here . We always knew we had something interesting, we knew there was a need on the hotel side and the consumer side for a way to connect the two same day. And they needed another distribution channel. The recent investment to the founder of starwood hotels, is a great validation for us, that in addition to the fact that several hotel chains have signed up on the service, really nice validation for us that the establishment is realizing we can add real incremental value in in in a sea of other distribution options. Cheryl what is better than going into the hotel, i am stuck in new york, what is the difference . Do you find they are competing more worried there might be collusion between the hotels and other services in the past . I think the Hotel Tonight premise for hotels is we offer a sole purpose distribution medium for them. We only sell rooms for tonight or stays that start tonight and we limit the amount of hotels we display each day in each city. There are limited slots and 4 hotels that means since we dont deploy the same hotels each day we offer a nice, focused way to get in front of consumers when they need to move rooms right now and because they know they are not on display every day, it doesnt become predictable for our consumers which hotels will be up there. That allows hotels to get comfort in being more aggressive with their rates same day. Tremendous deals on hotels today. Cheryl prior lifework that orbits so you know about lastminute deals on anything. Thank you very much, interesting story. Thanks for having us. Cheryl the dow up 107 points pushing session highs, lets go to the Stock Exchange, jonathan cortines, marine Equity Partners on the floor. I think our viewers are getting used to the volatility we are seeing over the last few sessions and almost a race, the dow, the losses we saw in january, is that bad news the we have gotten that correction or pullback that many said were a pealthy event for the market . The volatility we saw in january is healthy for the market. That might be the move everyone is expecting. People talk about big numbers, 50 move in the market. We dont need that to flesh out the activity in the market. What we need is what we got in january. Works people up and remind us the market wont go up every day and we wont get 30 return so a little Lesson Learned but stepping back and looking at what we have, Economic Data has been soft, mildly getting better, confidence in the market is here and diking we will see the progressions we have seen already in february. Cheryl this really has become quite a story for our viewers who are watching our investment . With all the news out there we are going to continue to see activity, cash on hand is key. Companies need to use it, we will see more and activity coming. Cheryl thank you, good to see you. Lets move to the other side of the spectrum. Oil stocks rising less than expected. Lets head to the trading pits of the cme, we got supply data out one day late because of a holiday on monday. What do you make of the numbers . A little bit of a miss . It was a mixed bag. If you look at the crude oil number we are now rallying up, we will have a four month hire and after the report even though we missed the mark prices came back down. Part of that was we saw big drum down in cussing, oklahoma bringing products to the market and better than expected supplies for distillate fuel and gasoline so that kind of was an offsetting type of situation. The one thing we got out of this report because of the drawdown in pushing, we see the wti spread gain on the front that everybody is going to watch. Who said this would never be the Global Benchmark again . It is well on its way, markets are going crazy because of the weather, look at coffee over the last few days . They have the biggest up move in 20 years . Guess what happens today . They were down, the biggest one day move since august of 2010 but theres a possibility that 30 of the Brazilian Coffee crop is at risk meaning higher prices and you better book your joke right now. Cheryl i can never predict what you are going to say . Coffee . Watching coffee in the market, so phil flynn on the pits of the cme. The wolf of wall street is stirring up even more controversy.

The death toll climbing in the ukraine. Last nights brief truce comes to an end. We have a correspond or in gf. What is the latest you can tell . The body count is rising. There is a cathedral overlooking the city. Right now, protesters are trying to strengthen defenses. We are pretty much expecting some kind of swatch of government. Dennis we heard this rumor. From what i can understand, the protesters that the truce was actually a ruse and did not trust it. We saw more violence breaking out today. Is that correct . That is correct. There will be more. There will be more if this escalates. Dennis the fact that they are using live ammunition, it is really disintegrating into a silver war. How does this play out . It is very hard. I think it will take some very talented people to prevent it. There are negotiations going on the uestion is whether it is just too late because of the distrust. It is pretty deep. Dennis thank you so much. Stay safe and be well. Cheryl a critical gateway for natural gas that moves from russia to western europe. 50 of russias imports passing through the country. What do these ongoing protests mean for the future of natural gas . Matt, thank you for joining us. I want to get right to this. We do not have much time. You will have to convince me that this is a realistic concern. This is actually something that is driving Natural Gas Prices higher. I followed these markets very closely. I find it hard to make a connection, but you do. We are not actually seeing an impact on prices. Russia is the largest supplier of natural gas to western europe. What we saw, the workplace scenario back in 2009, russia cut off their pipeline. The worstcase scenario, we see 25 of imports cut off. I am not saying that that will happen, but russia has aligned itself with ukraine. It knows that this is such a key element of the Natural Gas Market they are in europe. Cheryl could these protests eventually affect the pipeline . I am looking back at history. There is not a lots of evidence that protest like this, the end result is that they do get to the pipelines. Is that a realistic concern here . Yes. We saw prices spike. The reason that the russians have given this bailout to ukraine is because they want to get into a situation where they can possibly do that or have some influence. Cheryl we are looking at Natural Gas Prices. What could potentially visit due to already sky high Natural Gas Prices. There is sort of 10. It is not really likely to have an impact. We have our Domestic Production. We cannot enforce it yet. This really could affect europe. These are global markets. I will end with this. The reason we see natural gas pricing spike is because of our supply. I am sorry, i have to disagree with you. Once we get to this cold step, next week we see the april contract, mind. That will be your answer. We will see prices easing lower. Cheryl im not sure all the natural gas will stay in the u. S. Thank you very much for joining me for that. Dennis one of the biggest price tags. Jo ling kent joins us with more. 16 billion in cash and stock. According to early investors, ceo and cofounder john is a classic american story.

Peter ducey is that the white house with the details on that. The judge ruled that their states constitution does not give the governor of nebraska the authority to approve the keystone exelon pipeline construction. The ruling is that that authority belongs to the nebraska Public Services commission. Governor already signed off on keystone after planners redrew the map. We made a thorough review of the group. The state department, not yet commenting on the latest keystone development. President obama is saying with a big project like this it is okay to go slow. I stated previously that there is a process that has been gone through. I know that it is extensive. These are how we make these decisions about something that could potentially have a Significant Impact on Americas National economy or natural interest. Transcanada says that they are disappointed they are looking at their options. Sandra. Cheryl thank you so much. Fox news peter ducey. Dennis lets get a check on the markets. What a day.

They took a 10 stake in green mountain. The stock went absolutely through the roof. Monster, it is interesting with monster. They have actually missed the street. Looking at that same quarter, use the reasons why it would be fantastic for one of these to make the acquisition. We are only up 7 . If you put the muzzle of a coke or pepsi behind, it makes more and more sense every day. Even diet soda is starting to come down. That means a top line growth absolutely amazing. A lot of people think it is a one trick pony. We go through these phases. We will use it for two or three months. There we will decorate it for two or three months. Wall street hates this company. They just had a really bad. They had a really ugly preliminary earnings report. Now, i love it to the upside. They report in the next couple of days. It is a high risk play. Okay. Charles payne.

Lets head down it floor of the new york Stock Exchange where our own Nicole Petallides where the dow seems to be powering higher right now. Nicole . A few notables here, sandra, on the Dow Jones Industrials. The dow jones is at 16,157. So that is a gain of 116 points. With this gain and this move a couple of things are happening. Number one we are really around the session highs of our trading day. The other thing worth noting last friday we closed at 16,154. So we are now three points in positive territory for the week. And that would make it the Third Straight week of gains for the dow. So it shows the trend remains to the upside. So you do see it battling back. It has been one of these days. Risk on. They have been buying up just about everything. Back to you. Sandra thank you. Ashley we, a new way to cut down the time it takes to mend broken bones to perhaps just days. It is called fracture putty, a new approach being developed with the use of stem cells which may hold the key to decreasing the Recovery Time significantly. We have the lead scientist of this remarkable project. He joins us now to discuss exactly how it works. Steve, thank you for being here. Now you have not yet tested this on humans if i believe that to be correct. You tried it on rats and pigs and sheep. What results have you had so far . I guess we should begin with, how does it work . Right. Thank you, ashley, for having me on the program. Fracture putty is really a new class of proteins, cell therapy, all mixed into a jell that is injected into the injury site, the broken bone and it takes advantage of the stem cells and their healing ability but also recruits the bodys own healing process to mend bones faster and with less pain and with less sideeffects. Ashley as you mentioned you tried this on animals. But what kind of results, what are the challenges when you take this new approach to use on humans . So really the approach we take is the same we take with animals, except it will be scaled up significantly. The approach to take the stem cells introduced. A protein that will make the bone heal faster so much smaller scale in rodents. But as we moved up into sheep and fixing clinical cases in sheep with the Surgical Team here at the university of georgia. Then also with our human Surgical Team well be able to go into Clinical Trials. A lot hinges being able to make it a safe and effective therapy. That is where our research is focused currently. What are we talking about here, steve . Traditional you set the bone in a cast and hop around for six weeks, two months. How much quicker could the bones heal with this treatment . Exactly. And that is what our goal is, to do it much more quickly. So for instance, many of our war fight thats come back from the middle east spend months in a bed, bedridden due to injuries. And fractures and so forth that could take months and sometimes never will heal and then, amputation is in order. But with fracture putty the hope is to heal those bones within weeks. Weve been able to do it within weeks and in animals, up into, up into sheep and pigs now. Ashley so quickly, how soon, if everything goes to plan how soon could this be actually used in the real world, steve . Currently were in the process of conducting preclinical studies. That is again for safety and efficacy of the treatment. Were starting to begin to plan our discussions with the food and drug administration. That will occur this year and we hope to be in Clinical Trials within the next year. Ashley well, we wish you best of luck. It is fascinating. Steve, thank you so much for joining us.

Ashley the largest string of suicides and other deaths on wall street since the financial crisis has banks reminding employees of Resources Available to them. Charlie gasparino is here with more exclusive details on which firms are the first to act. Charlie . This is not a story you like to do. This is a terrible story. You dont like to brag you did it first. But as we reported earlier this week, this is an issue. Wall street is now following up. There hasnt been this many deaths in a cluster i would like to point out, in a matter of weeks. Talking some six to eight weeks since the financial crisis. Even then that was more or less, you know, over a series of many months, okay . What we do know right now the banks are now, telling the Fox Business Network that they are taking affirmative steps, affirmative actions to remind employees what type of counseling they have. We know jpmorgan is doing this we do know that bank of america is doing this. But they are going out there and saying listen, we are worried about this. This is an issue. We should point out that most of these deaths, five of them are suicides. Two of them are, you know ashley mysterious he circumstances or unknown. Unknown. People do have heart attacks even at fairly young ages. Ashley yeah. Although i think the oldestgy guy, the oldest person in this cluster is in his 50s. These are generally youngish people. And, you know thats where we are right now. The banks are taking those affirmative steps. Wall street is an interesting place. I will say this as someone who covered wall street a long time, when madoff happened and when you had the financial crisis, again that was a slow burn. People did stuff like this. The type of personality, if you get into it, why might people be doing this particularly the suicide portion of it . Wall street is high stress. But my dad went up on scaffolds and worked 20 stories up with a construction workers. Ashley that is high stress. Those guys werent, that is really high stress. People in battle. That is high stress. What is interesting about wall street the type of person it attractions. Attracts typea personalities. Ashley yeah. Typea personalities are often people that highly strung. Highstrung and armchair psychology here. People that do drink and do we dont know why these people died just yet. This is person where ashley we all have personal lives. Doesnt necessarily have to be job related. When you do it on how much money these guys make, and if youre in the environment you are now, not makes as much money, wall street salaries, take out the top dogs. Ashley yeah. Main line wall street salaries, theyre not doing as well. Middle of the road salesman trader, which most people in wall street are. They dont make gazillions of dollars, most make in the area sound big to main street, 200 to 400,000 a year. Those salaries are stagnant and going down. That adds a layer of pressure. Giving you armchair psychology. I dont know why these gentlemen did what you did. That is essentially what is going on. I will say this again. This is what is kind of weird about this. Listen, this could be just random. Stuff happens randomly. Ashley yep. How was the universe createed . There was randomness to the big bang theory, right . This could be random this, is odd when it happens all at once. As a reporter when you see Something Like this you tell people about it. I cant give you the reasons why. They look, they appear to be, despite, this is all over the internet in terms of conspiracy theories. Ashley of course. There is lots of who knew who where and how they might for all intents and purposes theyre unrelated. Ashley yeah. They didnt know each other. Dont think so. Anyway. Not a happy story but, well continue to, the street is taking ashley banks are taking action. Yeah. Ashley charlie, thank you very much. Appreciate it.

Sandra oil tank hanging on triple digits. Volkswagen top labor representative is threatening to block expansion in the u. S. If the workers are not unionized. Rich edson with more from d. C. Rich . Good afternoon, sandra. German labor unions have much greater say in their companies than american counterparts. With the rejection of the Union Representation at the volkswagen plant, the head of the german vw union is threatening to Block Company expansion in the u. S. South. Telling a german publication, i cant imagine fairly well another vw factory in the United States, provided one more be set up, does not necessarily have to be assigned to the south again. If codetermination is not guaranteed in the first place, we workers will harding be able to vote in favor. In the runup to the vote, officials said volkswagen would likely build a new line in chattanooga if they rejected the auto workers plan to unionize the plant. Vw denies that. They are trying to get a foothold in the Auto Assembly plants in the south for some time. This was the best chance prompted by its german union allowed uaw to campaign in the factory and agreed to the fast track election. Despite vws accommodation, chattanooga workers rejecting organizing with the uaw by 712 to 626. As part of the agreement with volkswagen, the uaw will refrain from trying to organize that particular plant in chattanooga for another year. Back to you. Sandra rich, really interesting. What do you think theetimeline Going Forward is going to be . Obviously there is something new on volkswagen every day right now. What are we watching . Were expecting sometime in the next few weeks for volkswagen to announce whether they will expand the plant, suv assembly in the american south. Mexico is candidate for that. As for that election last week, there is still the possibility that the uaw can challenge those results, basically saying what had happened, was that there was undue influence from outside sources. Well watch on that as well. Ashley rich, thank you so much. Interesting because american south, nissan has a big plant in tennessee. They have been given massive tax breaks. There is no state income tax in ttose states. There is lot of advantages for know, automakers to go to the south. But as rich pointed out, those unions in germany, they are really, very influential in what the company does. Sandra absolutely. A bit different than what were seeing here.
