Has she quieted down a little sft . Maybe she would be available. I think we might have an easier time getting her if shes staying up all night. Okay. Then, something else. Ive got a mind that cramer yesterday making the point that the market didnt believe the deal could be done. Im almost 90 this deal is done. It was down 150 yesterday, its down again today. The deal is going to get done. The market is not going up based on the deal getting done. Why did it go down yesterday . Buy on the rumor. So all that stuff we were worried about, when they finally happen, i dont think the market trades on them at this point. What did it trade on yesterday . I was trying to figure out why it was down 129. I think it didnt trade on the deal getting done and we were thinking i was up how much was it up on friday on the jobs report . It already reflected the good news in the economy and i dont but ill tell you, thinking of looking at paul ryan, who i hes grown in stature in my eyes again because he is he coming back on the show . No, yesterday i that, too. But yesterday i was thinking, you know, i dont need your trash the tea party because i think i understand what their motivation is about a lot of things and i agree mostly with small government and the private sector and i think thats really what but if youre in a position where there is no way the stuff you believe you cant just hold on to your principals as you go, you know, crashing into the ground and is just say well, i was firm in my convictions. Thats what we just did. We went through that with cruz. It didnt help anyone else but him. So ryan says, im not nifg any of the stuff i really want, but im pragmatic to know that this is the best we can do at this point. Right. Boehner has been burned by these guys. Hes given them the benefit of the doubt. Now he finally said, this is crazy. What did he is . He comes on and hes playing both sides. But he comes on and he says, this is throwing in the towel. This is the republicans getting rid of all of their theyre abandoning all of their principals. But if i were you, andrew ross sorkin, i would say the deficit has already been cut in half. We understand the entitlements and the entitlements are going to get worse with obama care. But at this point with this congress and this white house, lets get the government open for the next two years and make some who do you think is going to hold this up if it gets held up . I dont think its going to get held up. The democrats dont like theres no Unemployment Benefits. Mitch mcconnell has hes being threatened by the tea party in his own state. He knows its probably going to pass, so he gets to vote no even though it wont matter. Andrew said the other thing one of the easiest things to do is vote know when you know its going the pass. And they do that all the time there. And they will probably allow for that. But we learn you know, harry reid is still around. Delaware, they lost that senate race. And in the senate this time around is vulnerable unless they go hijacked by the far right again. If youre not in office, you cant really do much, can you . Right.

It is now time for the Global Markets report. We are going to go over to london to say hello to our good friend, ross westgate, who is standing by. Ross, good morning. Good morning to you.

Not so great, though. Not a great way to start the morning. Well see. You go through these things, these ups and downs. Some people yesterday were wondering if this is the beginning of a crash. A what . A crash . Is this the beginning of a crash. I can see the beginning of the first 10 move that we saw because so many things are coming to an insider put that out and people are saying, are you kidding me . You shouldnt do this. This is irresponsible. I would blog stuff lately. Hes more anticapitalist than some people think the pope is. Did he learn religion after his problems or something . I dont know. Its very strange. Its all about egalitarian outcome. Did you just the pope . I did. Because yesterday you kept you know, he consistently will take that point of view from if someone barbs capitalism, youll bring it up. Were a Business Network and i was trying to relate this time story magazine we were questioning the basic tennance of capitalism. Hes the pope. He has to worry about the poor. Thats what the pope does. Hopefully theyre not worried about rich people. Of course, they need to get its harder to get through the eye of a camel than yes, yes. But he didnt mean eye of a camel. My point was tapering looks like its coming sooner or later. So all of these things that weve been talking about, the end game is in sight. This would be you know, the market goes up, not knowing if anything of this is really going happen. Then when you see that its becoming reality, then everybody says, hey, ive always acted. Yeah. Typically, yeah. It doesnt seem like there was much else to explain it yesterday. Right. It is snack time on squawk box. After a successful trial run, graze. Com is launching its u. S. Business today. The company, which delivers healthy portioned snacks to suit your taste. It started out in 2008 and is now one of the Fastest Growing startups in the uk. Joining us now on set is anthony fletcher. Thanks for coming in today. Hey, becky. These are small healthy snacks that are portion controlled. Ive gone through the day sometimes and thought, i just need a little something. You go to the snack machine and theres nothing in there that looks all that healthy. How did this start out . The people who set up the business used to work at the netflix of europe and they were interested in reinvented snacking. So they came up with this whole model, being able to send portions of the snacks through the post directly to your home and office. So the one im looking at looks like it has dried apple in it. It has another one called nanofi pie, which is dried banana and nuts in these things. How healthy are these . How many calories are in these . Its a really good question. What were here to do is try to give people healthy snacks which they want to eat instead of a candy bar or a bag of chips. We offer different boxes depending on what youre after. So if youre on a diet, we offer a light box which is low in calorie. But you know, people are after lots of different things. What do i have to do, can i get one in a half an hour, an hour . Do you order it in advance . You order it online. We ship to 250 million addresses in the 48 lower states. You sign up and we send it to you regularly. Its a bit of a different service. What we to is pop you up with snacks each week so the box is always there when you need it. Its not getting the product out quickly. How big is the product in the uk right now . So were one of the uks Fastest Growing businesses. Weve gone from the bedroom to 17 million in five years. In our trial in america, weve shipped close to 1 million boxes. We started by emailing 100 people. One week later, we had a customer in every state. How much is a box like this . 6 plus delivery. Theres four little packs, right . This is any nut pack. I dont know which one this is. So theres four, six bucks for all of them . Yes. Do you get a discount if you order ten boxes . Not at the moment, no. And is it offices or consumers homes where youre delivering this . Well send them to both, but in america, people are really enjoying having these in the office. So they keep it in their desk drawer. Is there ever an opportunity or are those so already owned by the pepsis and cokes of the world that you cant even touch it . This is what is fantastic about technology. From our one post upgrade kitchen in new jersey, we can reach 250 million american addresses to build up that sort of distribution through vending machines would take decades. Anthony, i want to thank you very much for coming in. Thank you. Coming up, we are answering the call at 35,000 feet. This is actually one of my favorite topics. We are talking about using your cell phone to make calls on airplanes something that has taken off overseas. Were going to talk to a ceo making that happen right now. Whats ahead for tech in 2014 . Will elon musk continue to push the envelope . And what will that mean for investors . Squawk box coming back after this. The s. E. C. Opening a Public Comment period today that could eventually lead to passenger use of cell phones on airplanes. Each carrier would decide whether to allow call necessary flight. But inflight cell phone use up and running overseas. Were joined now by area mobile ceo kevin rogers. Good morning to you, kevin. Good morning. So first of all, what is the chance you think this actually happens in the United States in a meaningful way . Well, im sincerely hoping it really does happen. It might take 18 months to two years. Im hoping the s. E. C. Can make a progression tonight. What has been the experience for you in europe thus far . What airlines are doing it, what airlines arent doing it . What have been the bad tell us about the bad experiences and also some of the good. Well, to start off with the bad experiences, there really havent been in any weve been in operation now for over five years. Were operating on at least nine airlines, operating on many of the long haul fleets. Which airlines . Weve got lufthansa, fas, and a number others, as well. Air lingus is operating on many daily flights across to the states from dublin. Whats the price point on those phone calls . Some of those are so prohibitive i could tell it wouldnt become a problem because most people dont make those calls. Well, youre absolutely right. I wouldnt say the price is prohibitive. What this is not, this is not the old Satellite Phone in the aircraft. This is an International Roaming service, so price res set by the home operator. We have roaming agreements with over 250 operators around the world. So give me an example. If im on a Virgin Atlantic flight that has your service on it and i wanted to call home and im, saying, in the middle of the atlantic and i talk to my mother for five minutes, what is that setting me back . Youll probably pay a couple of bucks a minute, Something Like nap. So like two or three bucks a minute or eight or nine bucks a minute . Oh, two or three. Although, kevin, a lot of the people who use it, you said i think its not very common for them to be making phone calls. Really theyre doing it for things like texting and emailing. Yeah, thats right. Thats right. Most of the airlines that we operate on office voice, text and data, sort of three services theyre used to on the ground. On those aircraft offering more than three services, more than 80 of the users never use voice. The amount of voice usage is actually quite small. The typical length of the call is one to two minutes. Either making a call or receiving a call. And a number of phone calls that you might experience in the cabin or on a long haul flight is about five or six. So these are based on the statistics that weve accumulated. Its worth pointing out, as well go ahead. Just going to point out, as well, that although most of our Airline Customers operate all three services, several b airlines have taken a decision not to operate voice. So they just offer text and data to their passengers. Who has done that . We look at air lingus, for example. Theyve taken a position that they offer just text and data. When i say have you offered any bad experiences, you have no anecdotal stories of somebody sitting next to somebody else who is yapping on the phone for a half an hour and it gets to fis a cuffs and people get hauled off the plane at the end or theres a screaming match . None of that . Absolutely none. Nothing that has come to my attention. Im very confident that if you go and is speak to the Airline Customers were doing bits with, theyll give you the same story. And bear in mind, these stories, these are the same company deploying this equipment on all of their aircraft and no one is retracting from offering voice. Kevin, is competition for you skype or are your Services Going to run that, anyway . Meaning people who have lamb tops and other services ta dont necessarily connect to their phone, per se. Yeah, yeah. Well, most of the airlines that were dealing with and these are the Long Haul International carriers, theyre deploying both wifi and phone. So the common theme here is that the Airlines Want to give the full gamut of Connectivity Options to their passengers, the same options we use on the ground. You go to a hotel room and you have wifi and access to your cell phone. Its the same in the skies. And youre dealing with 250 passengers here. Each one of those has a different user preference. So im going to send one text to attach to the wifi. Some want to do a long surfing session, so theyll pay the 10 or 15 bucks for a wifi session. So you have to market for both of these in the cabin. And the demand for our services is very strong, very strong indeed. Right. Okay. Kevin, thank you for joining thus morning. Appreciate it very much. Yeah, thank you. Thank you. Cant you think about, like, the train . Theres a quad car. Ive never gone to the quad car and theres people all over. I dont always like sometimes i hear some pretty good stuff, actually. I hear people talk about what theyre going to pay on the ploy employees. On a train, i can get up and walk away. There have been people that have driven me crazy kind of like the who is on and doing work the entire time. And talking loudly. So i filed found a story from where enron was going bankrupt and you ron went bankrupt . Back in the day . Not necessarily. Forgot about that. Anyway, it was ads 67 650 bill. People next to me, they hated me the whole time and i think i would hate me, too, in this
