How would you allocate capital this morning . Leo i think you to allocate capital carefully and deliberately at this point. Stocks are still down from their high but this is a big rally and we have been taking small bites for some time now and this is the classic warren buffet. You get rich in bare markets. You just dont know at the time. People forget it is a forecasting tool and not a weighing machine. I think the market is trying to discern between massive economic disastrous numbers that are in front of it and the fact that we are starting to reopen and i think what investors miss sometimes is human ingenuity. We have persistent way to finding shock events like this and the markets are putting that in the numbers. Maria so are you saying that despite some negative head lines you still want to own stocks . Leo i think you want to absolutely want to own stocks. Again, if you are a longterm investor especially today, bond prices with yield essentially crushed and the treasury basically at zero are as expensive as they have ever been. The pe on a treasury is astronomical. You you absolutely need to own stocks to fight what is going to be inflation in the future, not in the next 6 months or in the year or so, but down the road. I think what people miss we are longterm investors until the markets go down and then suddenly everybody becomes a day by day trader. If youre a stock buyer you have to have a longterm point of view. By the way, this takes the whole vshape and,shape and put it on its head. The longer it looks like a v. Maria Dagen Mcdowell. Dagen nasdaq is down less than 3 . Thats like an like a slight earnings miss from apple maybe. What does that tell you . Is there risk in tech given the fact that it looks like clear sailing ahead for these tech investors . Leo i think what that is telling you, dagen, we are looking at a market that reminds you of 19892000 where you have tech names and the weight in the tech stocks is enormous and youre seeing the small group of names that are doing quite well in the current environment. Really driving the turn higher and as is the case in my market, investors have to look very closely at value. I think if you look at some of these biggest tech names that have the lower risk like any other asset. When you buy the lowrisk name you will over time get the lower return. I think at price level investor has to ask themselves are you a longterm investor and are there turn around place here and if you pin it correctly active management you can make a higher rate of return. Maria so in that theme, is there value to be had right now in the Energy Sector . I mean, look at oil prices under pressure sharply lower just in the last couple of weeks over the new concern over storage capacity, leo, would you look to buy commodities or would you look at the oil companies, are you concerned about dividends suspended, exxon mobile reporting earnings, whats your take here . Leo all dividends in danger when they have come under pressure and energy and if theres a signal that market is forecasting tool it was this past week where Oil Prices Went negative and Energy Stocks are actually moving higher. Thats the market looking forward to 30dollarbarrel oil in the future. My challenge with energy is there is so much supply, not just as a result of the crushing demand, but there has been a lot of supply. We basically dropped another saudi arabia into the world supply when we started fracking. Its not as it was decades ago where oil would run and make the huge price movements. You saw that here. We had a perfect environment for Higher Oil Prices and we didnt get back to where we have been historically. So i think you have to be careful with energy and be careful with debt levels and i think you have to expect dividends to come down. There are places where you can buy dividends and energy is a risk. Maria all right, we will leave it there. Leo, thank you so much. Leo thank you. Pleasure being here. Maria coming exclusive interview with Michael Milken. He will speak with me live at 8 00 a. M. Eastern. Big show coming up. Stay with us. Back in a moment. Maria welcome back, preventing the spread of coronavirus as governors across the country discussing easing restrictions this morning. New research is indicating that the coronavirus is able to linger in the air of crowded rooms or areas, hospitals in wuhan have reported finding traces of the virus in airborne particles inside of the hospital including areas where hospital staff take off protective gear. Joining me pediatric Infectious Disease specialist at Cleveland ClinicChildrens Hospital dr. Frank esper, good to see you this morning, thank you very much for joining us. How concerning is that . Reading the story right now in terms of the coronavirus in air and at 2 hospitals in wuhan, researchers found bits to have viruses genetic material floating in the air of hospital toilets, in indoor spacing large crowds and they are saying that people produce two types of droplets, larger ones that drop to the ground and smaller ones that make airsols can you tell us about that . Thats true. The question where theres airborne transmission versus droplet transmission has been going back and forth in the last couple of months. Theres been a lot of reports stating that there may be air transmission, we have done some really, really studies and looking how well the virus stays in the air. Theyve also done epidemiology and 75,000 people down in china. I will be honest its not too surprising to me that theres some amount of this material, of this virus that stays in the air a little bit longer than a cough would. The question is whether or not to be infected for a person that walks in the room. Maria i see. Whats most important . Whats your maintaining away about the coronavirus . We already know how well this virus spreads, we have seen it already and we already know as well that this virus is really contagious in closed areas, the whole diamond princess cruise ship, which seemed forever ago, we saw how many people got so sick so quickly and what we are seeing in these enclosed areas like the older care facilities where youre really stuck in one building, we are seeing a lot of people get much, much sicker than other areas which are not so enclosed or highly trafficked. And so what i would say is that this gets another why things have gotten so bad so quick especially as we learn more and more about this virus. What we do need to know, though, takehome point is if this virus comes back, when this virus comes back, thousand prevent such explosive infections like what we see here in the United States over the last couple of months. Maria Dagen Mcdowell. Dagen as pediatric disease infectious specialist, children are less vulnerable to coronavirus. I know that there was a cdc, some data published that only 1. 7 of 150,000 infections were found in people under the analysis of 18, what do you say about that and what does that mean toward reopening the country particularly getting children back to work to school potentially . I think reopening the country will be paired straight with getting kids back to school. We cant go to work if our kids arent being taken care of and thats just a fact. Youre right that children are less vulnerable to severe disease. Thats not to say they cannot get infected. Its very important for us to understand that children can get infected and some children can get very sick and we have seen children get very, very sick in the country and die and its not something that you say, hey, they are off the hook. That being said, getting kids back to school is one of those phases where we try to reintroduce children but its going to be different, the way we reintroduce children into school will be very different than what happened before this pandemic and certain measures in there to make sure that we prevent kids from going to school when they are sick, making sure that we identify those vims who have to be taken out of the school before they get into school to make sure that we dont maria so real quick, do you have a reaction to cdc adding 6 new coronavirus symptoms, they include chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat and loss of taste and smell. Cdc previously listed cough, fever, shortness of breathe as mainknown symptoms. Thats now expanded. Yeah, im not surprised and i expect that list to actually get a little bit bigger. The answer is at the beginning cough and shortness of breath and all were looking around and, boy, thats everything, despite respiratory. This is still not specific for someone who deals with respiratory infections and a lot of viruses, cough, chills, sweat, sore throat. The type of headaches, these are nonspecific. A lot of viruses give you this type of feeling when you get infected. The one thing thats very specific on this list is basically loss of taste and smell. Thats something thats very unusual and something characteristic about this virus. Every other one of the symptoms on the list is basically a character of many viral infections. Maria all right, we will leave it there, dr. Esper, great to see you, thank you for your insight. Dr. Frank esper from the Cleveland Clinic. Race in 2020, six months until november.

Cog amid coming amid endorsements for biden. Mattie, using moment of crisis for political gain and is he gaining because people are tired of the president s press conferences, how do you read . Mattie good morning, maria, two months from now we could be in a completely different world just like today is completely different than it was two months ago, certainly voters are looking at the president s handling of coronavirus and what has happened under the result to the economy. As you mentioned earlier we had a couple of stumbles along the way. The ppp loans getting out the door. With states reopening now and the federal government i think doing pretty good job putting out guidelines for states to follow that shows certain amount of leadership. What really matters over the next couple of weeks and months how confident people feel entering back into society, going back about their normal life and how the economy recovers as a result of of that. I think theres upper glide, voters will rewarded the for that. Maria dagen. Dagen one other thing i will throw here concerns among healthcare professionals, people who i speak, resurgence of the virus and that will clearly play out in the president ial election, but to borrow something that kat temp said on greg gutfeld, how strange the less you see of joe biden the more he rises on the polls. People like not seeing him as often. Thats upside down. Maria meanwhile the scandal is it resinating, one of bidens former Senate Staffer tara reade accused the Vice President of Sexual Assault and retaliation had story corroborated. Can the camp, the biden camp ignore the claims . Do you think this becomes an issue . Dagen let me rephrase that.
