Line here, it too on track for a record close. An effective vaccine now more important than ever as the pandemic death toll today topped 250,000 americans. Yesterday alone, more than 1500 people died. One of the biggest obstacles to rolling out a new vaccine, we talked about this, maintaining the ultralow temperatures needed to transport tens of millions of doses. The ceo of the u. S. Company that says it can get it done is here. Hes churning out his medical grade freezers as fast as he can. We will show you what it takes to achieve refrigeration nation. With cases spiking, businesses, yeah, you will dread this, sending workers back home again. Are you dreading zoom group calls . We are about to show you a new video platform that may have you considering the switch. Plus, chris krebs, that trump appointee the president fired last night by tweet for saying the election was secure, has just himself tweeted out a defense. We will show you that tweet and the two protrump senators siding with krebs right now. All right. Stunning news from pfizer. Weve got to get to that. Its hurling the drug maker and its german partner biontech to the forefront of the race to end covid19, a disease that has now killed more than a quarter million americans. Pfizer says its going to seek emergency approval quote, within days, for its covid19 vaccine after final trial results actually showed their shot had a 95 success rate, not 94. 5 , 95 . Not 90 . 95 , no serious side effects. There are reports the fda will likely take a look at the data next month. Joining us with whats next in the emergency use authorization process, which involves a lot of business and supply chain, is blake burman. Blake . Reporter it does indeed. When you look at the timeline, pfizer applying for that eua, emergency use authorization, likely within the upcoming days here. The fda has already said in recent days that that process might take weeks, so potentially here, potentially, a Pfizer Vaccine youre looking at some part at the early or middle portion of december. We just got off of a reporter call a little while ago with the top officials on operation warp speed and i got to tell you, it was interesting listening to the top scientist, dr. Slaoui. He was bullish on moderna as he was on pfizer. The doctor was asked well, what happens if theres both vaccines out there, how will you determine which patient ends up getting which vaccine . This was his response. It would all depend on the reviews by the fda on the minutae of the data, exactly whats labeled, the safety profile, et cetera. They are very similar in their making and in their performance, and therefore, i dont think there should be any constraint on who gets what vaccine. Reporter we also heard from the Johnson Johnson ceo as he spoke to David Rubenstein during a virtual d. C. Economic club event. The ceo was fairly optimistic or at least hopeful as well on the prospect of the oneshot vaccine at his company. We use both formats, one and two shots, and we are going to have to find more information. The early data that we were able to generate both preclinically as well as in the clinic in our phase 1 trial suggested we do have a robust response, and that is again, how the body responds in producing neutralizing antibodies, with one shot. Reporter so lots of optimism in the upcoming weeks as to what might be. I should mention that during that operation warp speed press conference that you saw there, the top general who is in charge of all of the distribution of this, whenever there is a vaccine, said that when there is a vaccine, within 24 hours, the military will be ready to get it out the gate and get it where its needed. Liz . Liz which is a perfect segue, blake, to our next story about that race, of course, for a vaccine as it looks like its heading straight for the finish line. We really only hit a mile marker. Next challenge, what blake talked about, getting it out there but security the most important thing required to keep the vaccine stable as it rolls out. Ultralow temperature freezers, elt, theyre called, they are needed to store and transport the potential lifesaving vials. Ohiobased stirling ultracold makes the only commercial freezer with variable temperature setpoints ranging from minus 20 degrees celsius to minus 80 degrees celsius, the precise range moderna and Pfizer Vaccines need. To athens, ohio, where the ceo dusty tenney is taking a moment during this very busy time to speak with us and show us how it works. You are really very much the man in demand, dusty. Tell me what your world has been like the past couple of weeks as these vaccines get closer and closer to being ready. Yeah, its been rather dynamic in many different aspects. Lot of reach out from a multitude of different customers that are really trying to position to deliver the vaccines, recognizing the pace at which thats taking place. Weve got 150 hardworking people here in athens that have been working pretty much straight out to position the tools that we have been able to put in the marketplace that support that minus 20 to minus 80 degrees celsius thats critical in terms of making sure we have the efficacy and viability of those vaccines. Liz i want to explain to our viewers why this matters. Cold chain failure, thats when the electrical current to one of these freezers goes out or whathave you, has actually destroyed or ruined, i was reading this, 2. 8 million vaccines lost during that lastmile delivery in five different countries. This is extraordinarily serious. We do not want to see that happen because every vial is incredibly important. Explain how your freezers work and what makes them the best option here. Well, theres a couple dynamics that we have in our freezers. First of all, we use a proprietary technology called stirling engine. Thats a unique device that ultimately gives us the ability to actually maintain temperatures between minus 20 and minus 86. On top of that, its very very reliable. The system itself is robust, its a closed loop system, and the ability for us to actually scale both at freezer farms, which we have collaborated very closely with a lot of logistics companies, and on top of that, we have taken the opportunity to mobilize down to that last mile which is probably the most critical element that you noted, liz, in terms of being able to really be successful in getting vaccines from that distribution hub down to the respective point of use clinics that will ultimately be administering the vaccines. Liz talk to me about exactly how they work. I believe youve got one right there. Perhaps you can kind of show us a little bit. I know that its adjustable but in what increments, because it does span, its got a pretty good spectrum here of temperatures that it can handle, and you know, give us some golly gee whiz facts about it. Is there an alarm on the door . Is there an l. E. D. Keypad, anything that can make sure that nobody can access it except the people who need to . This device is actually located with me here today called the ult25. You can sort of think of that as what i consider as a beach cooler that has a stirling engine on it that ultimately takes those respective temperatures in onedegree increments. It has an onboard computer and that computer basically continuously monitors the temperature inside the freezer itself. Basically, as you would think about as a beach cooler, you would open up the lid and inside the lid, you would have a compartment in which the vaccines would be stored. Weve got trade designs we built specifically to support the variety of different vaccines that the drug makers are moving very fast with. Ultimately, it does alarm and this device is highly portable. It can plug into power ports on vehicles so when you start to think about that last mile and getting it down to the clinics and pharmacies that will be using it, this is going to be a very very important device in order to be able to enable that control of temperatures which is critical for the efficacy of the vaccines that will be delivered. Liz i know our viewers might want to just peek inside. Can you reach over to that one over your right shoulder . I think i can here. Just a second. Yes, i can. You can probably see a little bit. Liz we can see it. I want to see the inside. Okay. That does look like a cooler. It does. We have actually an inner lid inside to keep the vaccines cold throughout that journey and as i said on the front part of it, even though i can probably rotate it here for you, it does have a computer that monitors the temperature constantly and provides continuous feedback to any remote device in the market. Liz 80 market share with big pharma companies. The company is called stirling. Good luck to you guys. My floor guy, greg, is like does it do beer . No beer. Im not sure beer would be the appropriate device but it does a great job on vaccines and biologics. We look forward to being part of that distribution stream and ensuring that vaccines that get manufactured ultimately support the needs of our population. Liz it is extraordinarily serious work and we are thrilled to see that its being done right there in athens, ohio. Thank you so much. We are watching this story very closely and as we now shift to home improvement, why are we talking about that . Well, it is still where the heart is for consumers.

To our floor show traders. Teddy and scott. Teddy, with the rush to suburban areas away from those urban, you know, very very crowded areas, thats still in full swing, what are the trades here . Does that mean investors should avoid any company thats doing building in the urban areas, skyscrapers or reits . I think this will continue. There are two big factors here. Number one, you have a very low Interest Rate environment vis a vis mortgages and the fed has indicated thats not going to change for any time in the near to intermediate future. Number two, you have what i would call the toxic politics of the big urban centers, where you have people fleeing, either fleeing covid or fleeing higher taxes, but the bottom line is people are leaving the high tax states and going to the low tax environments. That trend started well before covid and my suspicion is it will continue. I think all the strength we have seen in new formations, new homes and in building, which flows to stocks like lowes even though its down today, and home depot, you know, you could pick your poison, they will all benefit and i think this trend continues and i think if you own these stocks, you want to stay long. If you dont own them, you want to look for an opportunity to buy them. Liz scott, i get the Home Builders. But there is an area that is a little less obvious that youre looking at that youre seeing some trades start to nibble at here . Sure. Couple places. First, you mentioned reits. I think its a really good time to start nibbling. The reit market got absolutely destroyed, it has recovered back somewhat, but as we start, you know, with the reopening, these could be a really, really good place to park some money longer term. In terms of some individual stocks, related to the Home Builders, theres two i really like. Trex is one of them, its that outdoor deck maker. The fact is that almost 25 of every new home being built has a new deck on it. The fact they use sustainable products, they love that. People love that. I love that company. Number two, overstock. Yes, you are going to say scott, the stocks up 900 this year already. Overstock. Com after this little selloff to me is a buy opportunity. They have really transformed into an online home goods company. They used to just sell everything, any kind of overstock merchandise. They really have transformed themselves into more of a Home Furnishing, home goods online seller here. I really like the upside potential there. Liz trex is a fascinating company. We have had them on. Their stuff is on my deck. Ants and bugs cannot eat it, termites are like no can do. I love trex. I like that pick. Teddy, you will get nothing and like it. We love your picks, too. Great to have you. Gentlemen, thank you. It is fascinating to see that all the Home Builders are up right now and the reits that scott, we had them on, theyre down.
