Really across the board some better than expected earnings boosting these markets. Adam him depot hitting a new high today. Cheryl making some news today activist investor carl icahn sent another letter to ebay shareholders saying, quote, he has raised what he considers to be serious and direct questions regarding Corporate Governance that ebay. The letter primarily focuses on conduct of the ceo john donahue and directed scott hoch, this after carl icahn charged the days board with complete disregard for accountability, that is a quote earlier in the we.

Cheryl a bitcoin bombshell to tell you about. The shutdown of one of the digital currencys biggest exchanges is rattling the bitcoin market place, concern surrounding the viability of the digital currency. They are left with little recourse as bitcoin is unregulated, some moving huge sums of money including our next guest, the ceo of colinof all who joins us on the phone from panama. First, how much money at this point will you lose if mount gox is insolvent . Something over 550 bitcoins which is a quarter Million Dollars. Cheryl you are coming out in defense of bitcoin . Why would you defend bitcoin when you lost this amount of dollars . This isnt a problem with the Bitcoin Technology or protocol. It is a problem with one individual company, mount Gox Mount Gox in japan. Was a shady company that was not very trustworthy. They had problems for years and ultimately i got burned because i had fun there. Cheryl theyre looking into mount gox to see if there is attribution, but you have a full defense of bit in general and you say when it comes to regulators, quote, they are focused on amplifying and in cities destruction. This happened in the u. S. The federal reserve, they would have your back, you would get your 300,000 back. At this point you have got nothing so why blame regulators who could have stopped this and could have saved you . For what happened to mount gox but you cant regulate await incompetence and failure. That is what people try to do in the u. S. Financial system and were left with these too big to fail companies that posed systemic risks to the entire system. At bitcoin we dont have that and it is healthier. Cheryl supporters, even tech conference fors, zero financial experience. How can they be trusted to regulate Something Like bitcoin or even from a currency which again is not propped up . This is what the market takes care of itself. Bitcoin has emerged from the bedrooms of 16yearold packers over the past few years and is moving into the professional financial world of people who know what theyre doing. Mount gox was originating in that past world and they didnt have the experience or competence to be running and exchange. Now they are gone and new Companies Like Second Market in manhattan are building things that are far more resilient and will carry bitcoin father. Cheryl even people like the n winklebvoss twins, they want t profit from this. More tech entrepreneur is finding ways to profit in dollars off of bitcoin, taking advantage of the average investor who may have thought this was a sound investment idea. People should not treated as an investment unless youre comfortable with highly speculative, experimental technology. Bitcoin is used by normal people transfer value from one person to another round World Without fees. You dont need to hold bitcoin for long time to do that. I wouldnt recommend to anyone cheryl that is what has happening in 2013 and why so many viewers stayed away from bitcoin. Frankly because it was 13 in january of 2013, a 1,100, any investment, stock, bond, anything with that much of a runup would be a red flag for most people in this country but yet you still defend bitcoin. I defend bitcoin. I did not tell people to invest in it. People should stay away from it as an investment. People should learn to use it as a tool of finance but not hold onto it as an investment. That is an important distinction. Cheryl we are looking at 350 million of loss in mount gox and that may not end. We will see what prosecutors have to say. Thank you for joining us. Adam investors anxiously awaiting details on a multibillion dollar port region Debt Offering but current debt holders may be in for a nasty surprise when the plan is announced, peter hayes is head of the Municipal Bond group, welcome back to markets and what is the timeline on when we know we expect about a 2. 8 Million Offering but when this will actually happen . A few weeks ago weber fast tracking the deal and we thought by now we have an offering document with details are around it and we havent gotten that. In fact as of this morning the and it still had to approve the authorization to issue bondss as well as the important part, details around those bonds because as you alluded to the structure of this deal may have implications for existing bondholders. Right now they are saying authorization any day, about a week later document will be mailed, two or three weeks later the deal will be priced so some time right now, mid march is the expectation. Adam discussions with different people who were following this they told me the hedge funds that are going to be the potential buyers of the estate are looking for i dont know if it is guarantees but at least some kind of protection. That is going to be the key in all of this. I completely agree. When i look at the fundamentals we have talked about this for a while. The fundamentals and puerto rico have not changed, they remain very weak which makes me wonder why investors are so interested in buying this deal with nothing has changed and you dont believe the economy is ultimately going to grow their way out of this so they must be looking for certain types of protections, certain elements of this deal to invest in other than the very high yield which is certainly one attractive element but i think they will be looking for those protections and that makes me wonder why this deal is being held up over the last couple of weeks. Are some of those details still have to be worked out or not approved and what does that mean for the implications of the deal coming will ultimately gets done but the details are around it are very important. Adam one persons protection is another persons burn. Lets talk about protection. For some of these hedge funds it could be as simple as if there is a matter to be adjudicated it would happen in new york courts, not where rican courts but for others who i have spoken to they want are details such as if i by this i have a first league should i have to against poor region taxes if i have to collect. What happens to the millions of retirees who right now might be holding Puerto Ricans ons. Did that kind of been be granted by the border region government . A big question and the great question. You mentioned earlier quarter rico is widely held investment investor client portfolios. I think it is. We get asked an awful lot of questions about puerto rico which means it is still widely held and does have implications for the existing bonds. That is one element of what many of these investors are looking for. They want to be adjudicated in new york but what does that mean . Of the restricted these bonds pdjudicated in new york versus all the other 70 billion of debt that get adjudicated in puerto rico soil, one court says one thing, another court says another, who wins . The federal government has to what does that mean for existing bondholders . A lot of complexity and questions still remain until we really see the details of this particular deal. Adam what is frustrating for investors is the specter live nature of all these discussions so we get something on paper but lets assume they come to the offer with the 9. 5 coupons. That will drive down the price of existing Puerto Ricans bonds and what is going to happen to investors who hold those bonds now . Agreed. Over the last couple days weve seen prs bonds rally a bit and that makes me wonder, a little puzzled by that because this deal will have to come at a discount, has to come cheaper in order to clear 2. 5, 3 billion, probably at a discount so the proceeds to pr, somewhere in the 2. 8 billion range which is what they need to buy themselves some time but i do question what that means for existing bondholders. I think theres any type of preference on this deal over existing bonds i think the value of existing bonds have to drop. Connell adam millions of people applauded say, not just the 2. 7 Million People in puerto rico. We appreciate your input on this as always and i know we want to speak to you again as we get the details on this, thank you very much, have a good day.

Top executive at Credit Suisse admitted a small group of rogan bankers that its firms appear to have violated u. S.

Others are gone as the bank insists it has been cleaning house and trying to clean up its practices particularly concerning 22,000 accounts for u. S. Customers most of which are not documented to the Internal Revenue service. The Senate Subcommittee on investigations saas the account had 10 to 12 billion.

Cheryl a couple in Northern California making a onceinalifetime discovery, millions of dollars in gold colins. That treasure buried right on their property. Claudia kaolin is live with the detaiis on one lucky couple land all that time, there it was. There it was. Morrison 100 years. Imagine walking your dog in your own backyard and stumbling across the greatest buried treasure ever found in north america. That is what happened here, 1400 rare gold coins, most dating from the 1880s and most likely buried by someone who decided putting their money in the ground was safer if than putting it in a bank, these were the days of the wild west when californias gold country was in many ways the edge of civilization. They were found a year ago by selfemployed couple who had walked that have hundreds of times, worried Treasure Hunters might choke with treasures and backhoes they want to stay anonymous and rare coin experts say that is a smart move. We have seen shipwrecks that have phenomenal amounts of colins on them but when you start to look at buried treasure we have never seen a group of gold colins buried in the ground of this size in value. Cheryl the coins were found stuffed in eight rusty cans and a couple quickly realized they shouldnt handle anything before calling in the experts. Good thing they did because cleaning the calling themselves could have reduced their value significantly. As it is this treasure is worth 10 million. Several of the rest coins could fetch 1 million apiece when they go on sale on amazon. The couple will need to pay taxes on their sudden wealth likely over a Million Dollars but say they dont want to change their quiet life style. They plan to denny to charity and keep a few collins as keepsakes of their incredible buried treasure discovery. Cheryl i cant help but wonder if the previous owners will potentially try to find this couple and lay claim to this, the ears of some unknown gold rusher . This family has owned this property for many years. There have been efforts to locate whoever might have buried this treasure but so far they dont know who did.

It is a good performer and up 30 in the past year. Back to you. Adam thank you very much, nicole. Some of the nations top banks wager importance of mortgage business. Charlie gasparino has a exclusive interview with dick bove. He has a solution for Share Holders to take over. He has a 18 price target if they go through with it, right, charlie. When we spoke a little bit, dick, you blew me away. This is 40 stock, fannie and freddie. You think it goes to 18 a share. How does it get there if. I have to be very clear with you. If the u. S. Treasury does not change any of the things today, the stork is worth zero because 2017 the company is gone. If on the other hand, the stock or company is returned to shareholders, since the company is earning about a buck 60 a share in my estimate and it can sell easily at 10 to 12 times that number, 18 a share is what it is worth. Plus if you treasury decide to turn it back to the shareholders, the biggest winner of course is the american taxpayer because the american taxpayer will have 4 billion shares of this stock and will pick up 75 billion if the treasury does what it should do. If the treasury of course chooses not to, the u. S. Taxpayer loses 75 billion and everybody else walks away with nothing in their hand. What exactly is the treasury trying to do . You have members of congress that want to get rid of fannie and freddie completely. The treasury holds the warrants. What do they want to do right now . This is in court right now, being challenged by investors, correct . Correct. In other words what the treasury wants to do is take 100 of all the profits of fannie mae and freddie mac and put it into the treasury and wants freddie mac an fan fay take the capital down to zero in 2017 which would of course eliminate the companies. The basis of their making that claim are the desire to do that is something called the third amendment which is an amendment that the treasury put into place in 2012, in august of 2012, which from my point of view and obviously the point of view of the 20 or so Companies Suing the treasury is illegal. Right. If that, if that amendment is taken out, then theres a chance that the tax, that the shareholders get the company back. We should point out youre not alone in this. Bill ackman i believe is involved in this. There has been other lawsuits out there. Richard perry, a Big Hedge Fund executive, is suing the federal government. But you know, there are a couple, what i find so speculative about this if i may, number one you have to expect that the government is going to lose and, doesnt sound like they can lose this, doesnt it . I mean, this is the federal government. Obama administration going to courts saying we bailed out this company. We own it. It is ours. We want to keep all the money and pay for all our welfare perhaps which is essentially what theyre trying to do here . But they dont own it. They basically said very specifically in the 2008 housing recovery act which set up the Current Situation that, a, this would be a conservatorship and b, they would give it back to the shareholders once the conservatorship was ended. That would end when the company turned profitable. In august of 2012 it was very clear that the company, the companies had turned profitable and the government reneged on the deal. The government says, well, now were not going to give it back to you. This sounds like it is going to the Supreme Court if you ask me. It is not at the Supreme Court. Im sure it is. Im sure it is if youre going to play the stock what is your time horizon in this thing . Well i think that congress has got another issue to deal with here. If you eliminate fannie mae and freddie mac with nobody in congress is actually thinking about, you eliminate 20 and 30year fixedrate mortgages in the United States. Ive spoken to at least a dozen banks. The biggest banks who issue mortgages in the United States and not one of them is willing to issue a 20 or 30year fixedrate mortgage if they cant sell it to fannie or freddie. So what does that do to the price of housing . It is rationallal that fannie and freddie go back to private company. I understand that what do you think the time horizon is this gets through the courts . Ill be honest with you, if goes through the courts the whole distance, it is three to five years. If the government decides there is a risk here, remember, the New York Times is suggesting that there is fraud here and that the directors are at risk at this company for stockholder fraud on top of what the treasury has done. And you know virtually every day another Insurance Company that owns the preferreds in this company sues the government. So the government is not going to wait three to five years to resolve this it has got to resolve it sooner and it cant risk eliminating 20 or 30year fixedrate mortgages about this country. It just cant take that risk. When you do that you think it is an 18 stock, correct . When they do that the taxpayer makes 75 billion. You about the shareholders, 11 stock, correct. Yeah. Exactly. Weve got to leave it there. Thanks, dick. All right. Adam thank you, charlie. Cheryl were actually getting some more breaking news into fox business. Want to bring this to you now.

Interesting, gordon, that youre targeting this particular consumer. A lot of these kids have Student Loans and living at home. Why is radisson and carlton making this big bet . Hi, cheryl. It is bigger than that. You look at sadly young people of today are old people of tomorrow, and i count myself in that equation as well. So what were looking at is attitudes and trend and behaviors that are beginning to prevail now, p. E. Little be the mel future. Looking at behaviors. I have to jump in. You say behaviors for millenials. The hangover, the movie, part 4. Were talking about 20somethings and hotel rooms. This could be recipe for disaster yet youre catering to that. Youre putting larger bars into these hotels. Are you concerned about the quality of customer you might get here . Oh, you have such little faith in the youth of today. Cheryl i do, im sorry. We were all there once and we all grew up and we all get responsibilities and you can even see that in the changes in behaviors and attitudes and trust me, if you look at most hotels over the weekend period you will see pretty bad behavior. So that is something that we are doing actively encourage dont actively encourage of course. And something that is part of the territory. Were fighting that. Cheryl okay, no. I hope so. Off hotels around the world by 2020. That is the goal here, spending 140 million bucks to push all of these forward. I certainly wish you the best of luck. Hopefully, hopefully, gordon, the customers will be there and wont, you know, trash your hotels. Fingers crossed, fingers crossed for the kids. Gordon, thank you very much. Good concept. Thank you.

A new device makes it a lot easier for visually impaired to read and as simple as to use as slipping on a ring. It is a wearable tech called finger reader. It converts tech to speech by running your finger over the words. It is created by the Mit Media Lab. It is just a prototype but it is getting a lot of buzz. Joining us now the creator of media labs and his professor. Thank you both for being with us and joining us. Roy, how did you get the idea to do this . Thanks. Well our research at Mit Media Lab has been focused creating more natural user interphases. These devices make it easier for people to access applications or while moving about or doing other things and we thought that putting a camera on the index finger would make a lot of sense because people naturally point at things around them and ask questions. So that is where we got the idea to put a ring on the finger. Adam roy, im curious, the applications for this have to be greater than just the visually impaired. Students learning a Foreign Language. Even the fact that a blackberry or smartphone, thats a device that gets in the way. Could this be kind of Wearable Technology that changes everything for us . We think that and indeed it can help you translate although we dont have that implemented yet but the apps, and Technology Already exist that is does that. It can help you translate right there and, and then you just look at some Foreign Language and translate it to you, and read it back to you or help you pronounce the words if youre just learning a new language or if youre learning a language, your first language. Adam patty, how do you market this, how do you bring this to market . How does this become part of the private sector or get commercialized or buy a device like this as we wrap up . I i want to stress this is jt a Research Prototype right now, but basically the students at the media lab are very entrepreneurial about want one in three of our graduates starts a company to commercial alize the research they have been working on and we also work with a lot of our industry sponsors in commercial alizeing the inventions that we come up with. Adam got it. Roy and patty, this is fascinating. I got a feeling someone from google may be calling you in a few minutes or vc to give you some financing. All the best to you. Thank you.
