The cable sector heating and began. Reporter a few names to take a look at. Up about half of 1 . Charter communications up. And this is as big news. A story we have been following.

Among the largest buyers of server processors and the world. Intel dominates. The fifth largest customer. Shares are trading down on todays session. Adam whether they wait until next week, the managing director says it is a buy on the news opportunity for both equities and fixedincome. Great to see. Thank you for having me. Lori lets begin with that. We are so anxious to hear the fed planned on tapering. You say it does not matter if we get it next week or early next year. By on the news. Absolutely. First of all, this is probably the most telegraphed move in history. Everyone knows it is coming. Is irrelevant whether it is coming in december, january, march. We sit here like the credit markets. Tax receipts continue to go up. The treasurys offering less securities. Theyre offer 600 billion less securities than they did this year. If the fed were to taper by 50 billion per month, which is obviously a very robust estimate, no one thinks there will be that aggressive. That will be a neutral effect. Lori basically its that and is raising a lot of concerns about the threat of lower prices and inflation in the economy. I am wondering if this is something that bernanke and company are looking at closely saying maybe as sooner taper than later is in order. It is certainly possible, but given the fact that the Producer Price index is coming in weaker than expected. Japan is trying to struggle out of their deflationary environment, if anything that would give deterred the tapir. Washington d. C. This is the excuse that was given back in october because of what was going on with the budget showdown. Obviously the debt ceiling. Even if they agree on a budget, and signs are there will get one done in the next couple of days, there are a lot of indications that it will be as easy passing the senate as it was the house which could cause stress. All this suddenly have washington d. C. Politics, its transition, and Economic Data which shows improvement, but it is in fits and starts which is not necessarily the super strong environmental. Lori you think the market in the economy is set up an healthy enough to withstand a tapered. If you look at the treasury market, see rates rising. Maybe it is already some positioning. That is basically what you are describing. Absolutely. A lot of times the market is about positioning. Good news is sometimes the market does not react well. This is an instance where it will be bad news in the market might. The tlc, the 30year long bond etf, see that this tree is positioned to go lower and race to go higher. As far as the positioning with treasurys. Treasury shorts are near oneyear highs. Very good chance that will surprise everyone and you see rates dip down. Lori and equity markets. Chief equity strategist, making headlines. First everyone knows rates are going up. The economy continues to strengthen. Systemic changes which could fleshedout of to the sidelines. I have been reading reports that a lot of the managers are still sitting on elevated levels of cash. This is probably the most jaded rally that we have seen in the years and i have been a trader. Also we have some regulatory tailwinds next year. People keep talking about maybe the fed moves on excess reserves a negative Interest Rates. What does that mean . Ever since the financial crisis banks have been warning about 2 trillion that the feds have been trying to flush into the system. If the fed was to start taxing gas was savings that we have a depository institutions we will be pulling money out, looking at different asset classes. Lori, we have the back. Anytime you want im yours. Lori you never said to me. Adam investors are dumping bonds elizabeth mattel is here. Youre right. Good to be with you guys. Look at the chart. When you see what that redemptions have been. Look at a take off in june. This is the exact time when many bernankes are talking about tapering, reducing the bond purchases. Heres the deal, the problem. They are surpassing the dollar amount of redemptions. The bond yields start to spike higher north of 6 . Bond yields still trending around 2 , to the 3 percent. And they are trending down. Theyre trending down to levels that we saw before the Federal Reserve stepping in to do there bond purchases. Individuals, but mom and dad to own Municipal Bonds actually were pulling money out. It is the lowest level we have seen since 2007. Over one and a half trillion. Adam that is roughly 32 billion less. Why are they pulling it out . They are afraid. Growth was talk about this. The bond king. Interest rates probably going up. Well the total bond universe. Still smaller than the redemptions. 2 percent. They are afraid of Interest Rates going up, afraid of the bond fund going down in value. As a problem for the month. Of the remember, it is being priced into treasurys. We are seeing that already. Buying mortgagebacked securities. Funds that invest in corporate. Lori expectation. Compton of Corporate Bond funds trending down. That is the picture were looking at. Awesome. Lori crudeoil falling below 97 per barrel.

Adam lets get right to. Smart watches. What happened . Are people using them . Who is going to really see these proliferate in 2014 . Are they yesterdays news . I think terrible really kind of hit their stride in 2013. So now the people are sort of familiar with them we have seen pebble become a little bit more mainstream. I have seen them, you know, one by people on the street which is always something of a sign that something is getting popular when you start seeing it out in the wild. But i definitely think that 2014 will be a big year for where rebels, and not just on the wrist, not only are we going to see the iphone five as with the ms seven coprocessor the real stars seem developers and application makers really start to kind of let it loose a little bit in terms of what that can do for people who use an iphone five yes. We will also be seeing even crazier where rebels as some people are not familiar with. Glass is a big deal right now. It has been a big deal in the tech community, but it is starting to bleed out into the mainstream. My dad asked me about it, which is always a sign that something is going to be bigger than you normally would expected to be. And also, even sony is getting into the game. A little while ago we some patents for smart ways which is completely bonkers and just great. I think, you know adam what does it do . Kind of a crazy idea, but they are saying that it would be helpful for somebody with a Vision Impairment to get directions as they walk around. It would give vibrations. It could also monitor things like heart rate, blood pressure. It is an nteresting time. Not only will we be seeing better wrist where rebels in 2014 but some are really amazing applications ways and glasses. Adam let me ask you of something. I am still waiting. Is it ever coming or will someone beat them to the punch . Explain to me why everyone will go nuts over four k.

It will be little more subtle to the human eye because the more dense the pixels are in the resolution is on the screen the less likely you are to notice it in terms of, you know, while, it will be a little more subtle stag. We have seen it in the trade shows. All dry hd. We will even ctk screens are smart phones and tablets which is a big deal. You know, apple is super secretive. So we really do not know. Until we start seeing leaks coming out of factories and from the inside, we are not really sure exactly when we may see. I dont know if it will be next year because i think there will be focusing on the fabled watch. I hope there are changes. Lori when i here i tv acting space 1999. You may not be familiar with that. Very quickly, digital cash. But coin not ready for primetime just yet. Fourscore is everywhere. Paypall as its own version. Digital currency is going to become a really big deal. It already is.

We have also seen douala youre able to get an actual physical card. I think next year will be a really big year. We might be seeing some Larger Company buying out these smaller startups.
