6:33 am
over 6 million americans. there is so much going on. consolidation interestingly enough in this whole health insurance industry you could see the big five turn into the big three. in fact they're all jockeying for position. that is why you're seeing so many companies trying to get offers and sweetening bid. a story on "wall street journal" saying it could cut consumer options. that a interesting read. sandra: the concern how this will affect the consumer. will this lead to less choices. >> for those in company plans you're generally only given one choice these days. i'm stuck. using my wife's plan of the mistake. just had a big fight with guardian. we'll leave them at the end of the year. that is only company her company offers. my company offers another one. what i find interesting, if all the bids are coming in now, seems the industry expects the
6:34 am
supreme court will rule these exchanges are okay. i much better buy health care company after negative ruling. the stock will go down if 29 states don't have an exchange. >> wording laws on the fly ad hoc. do after the fact rewriting laws, congress voted in and president signed. sandra: you say that would be amazing. what do you anticipate? >> i think strict constitutionalists stick the way law was written. the law said the tax credits were meant only for states for health exchanges. not federally-built ones that was incentive for the states. to nicole's point "the wall street journal" analysis is amazing for senior citizens. if there is humana-aetna hookup, 3/4 of the medicare advantage customers would be in those two companies. wow, that is son r consolidation. that is price risk. they could easily raise prices
6:35 am
if they have a monopoly. sandra: that is a big concern, when you look at stocks of these companies the market is is fromming more consolidation in the industry? >> those stocks in particular are doing exceptionally well. anthem 31%. aetna also a winner. the group overall is doing very well. we'll see how the consolidation could affect people using each one of these. 272 by the way is the dollars per month that the costs could go up. >> that's right. i want to be clear what the journal found. 3/4 of the medicare advantage customers in 180 counties in the midwest and the south would be in one insurer. that is a lot of people with one insurer. >> it would raise antitrust issues. we'll have to see what happens. sandra: what is the reading, jack, as we await the decision coming down from the supreme court? what is your reading on the market and what is its tolerance as we await the decision. >> i don't think you would see a
6:36 am
bid before the decision at an 18% premium if the bidder thought those stocks were going to fall. i can't see any other scenario than the stocks having a temporary fall, if you said 29 states may no longer have these exchanges. therefore fewer customers. >> this also opens, we talk about 2010. this also opens up when if they will repeal most or part of this whole act overall, this whole health care act. >> right. sandra: thank you very much. nicole petallides, for bringing that story to us. turns out jonathan gruber was more involved in the shaping of this obamacare law than everybody initially thought. according to "the wall street journal" he was in frequent contact with the white house over the design of that law. blake burman has the story out of washington for us. >> sandra, good morning to you. one top obama administration health care advisor described jonathan gruber as quote, our irehero. "the wall street journal" looked at 20,000 previously unreleased
6:37 am
pages of email. that gruber worked closely with the white house officials than previously thought. he was caught on tape in 2013 mocking the electorate. >> lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. basically call it the stupidity of the american voter or whatever, basically that was really, really critical to get the thing to pass. >> afterwards the obama administration tried to separate itself from gruber. the journal reports at times there was not much distance at all. the emails show larry summers, top economic advisor to the president asked gruber 2009 what he would do if he were president. gruber predicted elsewhere there would be winners and losers health care reform and kept administration apprised interviews he did with reporters. sandra. sandra: blake, thank you. over 1000 passengers stranded in warsaw after hackers breached an entire airline. that is next. continue the conversation on

systems in air could be hacked but they are saying it is, there is potential for it. there is potential. not there yet but could happen. sandra: this is polish state-owned airline and a spokesperson for the company basically putting it out there, not at any point as liz mentioned are were the flights themselves in jeopardy. more about the planning and scheduling of these planes. we're taking about the airline industry talking about open to mackers. -- hackers. >> this is brought up the german airline pilot crash. that raised issue of hackers. what if hackers cake over the airplane. that is one of the big obstacles to that solution. >> sandra, the discussion at least is happening. we don't know. there was a security expert out of, chris roberts out of colorado said he hacked into the system of a united plane i believe, but it wasn't true. his claims were disputed. but he is saying it could
6:45 am
happen. i know i could get through that entertainment system in the airplane and get through to the plane. sandra: by the way, jack, the cover of "barron's" over the weekend, climb aboard now the paper says. airline stocks could soar 50% in the next year as profits surge. why american is our top pick. explain, sir. >> i would say one word, valuation. the airline stocks were extremely cheap coming out. financial crisis. they rallied pretty nicely. this year they're down 22% before the story came out. they're selling half the market's valuation, if you look at price-to-earnings ratio it's very low. we use something called enterprise value to ebitda which is better measure. sandra: now, now, if stuart varney were here he would ring the buzzer on you. explain. >> looks at the valuation of the company in a way that doesn't let debt make it more confusing. price to earnings ratio might

6:47 am
canceled last-minute by spirit and couldn't get another outbound flight. sandra: they're not a business carrier. >> the airlines are in a sweet spot with oil prices going down, jet fuel going down and can buy back their stock and "barron's" noting refitting plane. oil prices go back up to continue to annoy their customers base. people will say i will do a staycation. >> share travel. who knew uber would destroy the new york city taxi industry, not destroy but a big competitor. they will go to the ride-sharing apps for smaller planes. they had it. sandra: that will be a tough business model. to liz's point about cheap fuel the "barron's" article is basing valuations of these stocks calling them a buy based on cheap fuel prices. that could change in a heartbeat. >> i wouldn't say it is based on cheap fuel prices. sandra: cheap fuel, plus less
6:48 am
competition equals attractive stock. >> point, we actually did the math. if fuel prices were to go up, it would cut into their profit margins but valuations would be still much lower. sandra: how high would they have to get, oil prices for you not call the airlines attractive. >> that would depend how high they raise their ticket prices in response. what they have not done is lower ticket prices as lower oil prices come down which means they're keeping money. if oil prices go up the question would they leave ticket prices where they are which would be okay or would they raise them. frankly with all the consolidation, i think they have, delta announced last week raising ticket prices by just two bucks but importantly southwest followed. what you're seeing is, they do have the ability to raise prices. that is why we have confidence -- sandra: why i told jack at 6:00, i hope you had your coffee. thank you, everyone. michael jordan brought the nba to another stratosphere.

♪ taylor puts her foot down and apple blinks. taylor swift protesting apple's decision not to pay for a three-month trial of apple music and apple responds by changing its policy. the company will now be paying artists. will a time warner shareholder dominates the annual meeting peppery macias questions about actor george clooney's pay in whether that money was going to a lebanese wife for anti-american causes. it turns out jonathan gruber was more involved in shaping the obama cared than originally thought. he was in three-point contact with the white house. blake irvin has the latest on that story. >> good morning. one health adviser described jonathan gruber is our zero.
7:04 am
according to "the wall street journal" is a look through 20,000 pages of previously unreleased e-mails. those e-mail show gruber had worked closer what the white house and top officials. the m.i.t. economist has caught on tape in 2013, mocking the elect are it. >> lack of transparency is a huge political advantage and basically the stupidity of the american voter. that was really critical to get the six-pack. >> they try to separate itself. there wasn't much distance at all. the top economic adviser asked gruber in 2009 what he would do if he were the president. gruber also predicted elsewhere winners and losers from health care reform and kept the administration apprised of interviews with reporters.
7:05 am
sandra: thank you, blake. turning the supreme court come a decision before the end of the month on whether obamacare subsidies for 34 states will stand. for more on this, dr. debbie, assistant professor at the nyu school of medicine. thank you for being here on this early morning. what are you prepared for? >> and thinking about the six to 9 million americans affected by this. with this decision they could lose their subsidies in the states that don't have -- that don't have marketplaces. for us, health care providers, will they be able to plan their care? if you lose those folks, the insurance companies might start raising the premium to be able to manage their health care with fewer people paying in. it could also affect their decisions on health care, too. sandra: broadly speaking, what
7:06 am
is your take? >> generally speaking we should cover a lot of people to offer health care. i'm concerned about patient health but that doesn't mean the law that fits the place right now. there's a lot of room to change things. if the supreme court rules in favor of the plaintiff, if they decide they should be eliminated, that gives politicians like republicans rooms to move or negotiate certain topics. sandra: dr. debbie is known for being so polite. there are some republicans in congress that would hate to differ. >> when this law started, when upon a kerry sign into law, we know at the time it was not perfect. now i think when you look at the insurance companies, you see a lot of them trying to buy each other. i wonder how that plays into the individual consumer.
7:07 am
i am in the camp that it will be more affordable for people of health care in this country but i don't think obama carries the way way to do it. >> went to look at not just insurance but technology and research development. insurance only makes their certain things accessible but it doesn't improve only have out there in terms of treating diseases and all of that. a lot of the focus should be placed on not as well in advancing health care. dagen: politically it could hurt the republicans as well because the republican party has not stepped up and put in motion something to take care of the people who the subsidies. the backlash is because they could hit so many americans could be broad and people who aren't directly involved with losing subsidies could be health insurance costs go up because the costs will get passed on to people and who don't give
7:08 am
subsidies. a few even by a compliant plan through the individual market. >> some of the proposals have to do with that of course. should they continue a subsidies until the elections have passed at least to both parties might be a little safer. these are the things out there so it could be a backlash for both parties. sandra: thank you for coming in on that. the that. the golfers and bigger rejections. the latest on that. reject dean entre subfloor rejecting an offer by interpol spirit and 18% markup on the closing price on friday. the $47 billion takeover bid is far less than the company is worth. health insurer at not looking to take over humana. humana is valued at around

markets. although the greek drama has been great for headlines come at the end of the day it will really be a whole lot of nothing. >> i am going to give biased, but basically that isn't so good and for u.s. a lot of guys have those in the portfolio and i'll take that as they are moving. you were mentioning the fact we had the debt ceiling talks. tax cuts on the lower and cuts will push their middle-class tax increases. it seems they are serious about reforming the financial system finally. sandra: we shall see. cheryl, thank you very much. we will talk about taylor swift east but the tech giant straight ahead and continue the conversation on face the. butterworth facebook page and tell us what you think and what you want to see. click the link button to see the

i could not get my head around how apple could artists wouldn't be upset. >> exactly. apple couldn't handle it. i have something to share with you. last update talked about the humanoid robot, peppered that women suffer $1600 in japan. all 1000 units of the robot sold out in 60 seconds. it's not a cute little robot? $1600 each. if an iphone retail store at the $500, $600, maybe that's a good deal. sandra: are we going robot? >> we might.

customer by doing this? i would argue no. >> i agree, no because when you we all know when you need a car you take your phone out go to uber, you know i don't know how they prevent people from carrying guns. >> how effective is when it a company comes out says, you know no guns allowed in our cars, how many people actually you know -- >> the driver now reserves the right to say if you see somebody carrying a weapon, but -- >> i remember sitting on the beach in a bathing suiting virginia beach virginia a man walking down the beach wearing a glock strapped to him the middle of the day why i have no idea, going to steal coins he picked up using metal detector but it throws you off perfectly legal. >> well take a look at dow futures, as we head towards the opening bell this morning, green are a roz dow up 134 points, the futures on the dow that is, s&p nasdaq futures also up, remember this is

8:15 am
in afghanistan, quite frankly, as i've been predicting for about 10 years now, this is going to go the way that iraq went. both very foreseeable going to take little time for taliban to retake away country. >> i starting out saying this is -- this could be an intelligence failure, likely is one. what would you what would you base that information on that you are seeing that as a coordinated planned attack? >> well, more than that, the fact is that the attack actually went on. and was not interdicted by afghan foers if they didn't know this was a coming at hart of government a very serious intelligence failure obvious at this point. >> what does it indicate for the future of our fight over there, as far as -- as far as afghanistan is concerned? >> well afghanistan is going doing the way that ira k is going probably going to take less time to do it. going to see the afghan government prime minister trying as hard as he can but

not good enough, taliban is very deeply entrenched there successful ideology over there not as opposed very substantially the minute we pull troops out finally, the afghan government will tall taliban will retake the country. >> secretary babin what can be made just from the simple fact that these he soldiers there stood up and fought we got a lot in the press about how in iraq the soldiers turned and ran away a few weeks ago, can you at least make a positive out of that? on the phone: well, yeah, we got we got to dig pretty hard for positives in this whole thing, guys. but yeah, that is a -- small positive. i think that certainly they were pretty much cornered so they had to stand up and fight. and, you know, it is -- little things go a long way sometimes, but at that point i don't think you can extrapolate from that small fight, to a larger fight to save the country. >> when you talk about the intelligence failure here sh, i
8:17 am
you were to start to point fingers or lay blame somewhere where do you, secretary? on the phone: well, [laughter] -- you can go back to the entire policies of nation will billed a lot of blame to go around with this i am not sure anyone can be blamed significantly for the failure of afghan intelligence, because i don't know that has ever been a very strong force to begin with. but i think if you are looking at the entire policy here, the policy of nation building, is at the heart of this failure we have been doing that in aviation for what almost 14 years now? and we did it in iraq for more than a dozen years, that is the kind of thing that -- we have to understand, that nation buildings is never going to work, outside of a nation. where defeated kinetically and maybe logically in this case taliban have never been defeated either way the same thing goes for iraq we just

sandra: jeb bush and marco rubio are solidifying their positions at the front of the republican presidential campaign. according to a new "wall street journal" poll 3/4 of gop primary voters could see themselves supporting either candidate. let's bring in former hillary clinton strategic advisor, edelmen berlin, ceo, michael berlin. i'm sorry i botched that a little bit. i'm excited to talk about this. i talked to both candidates past couple weeks. i have done a sit-down with donald trump. to me appears very serious about what he is doing but you will tell me otherwise and too, marco rubio, sat down for an houren our show "outnumbered" on fox news channel. he has compelling case, a lot of support behind him. who is the frontrunner at this very moment in time. >> right now this is very food news for jeb bush. he had a very rough start.
8:31 am
his numbers are coming up. his launch last week worked. he is happy. the person that is really happy, marco rubio, first time senator in florida, about the same age brahm obama was. he is now in the game. this could be real issue for jeb bush. sandra: what is the strongest point for marco rubio? where is his strength coming from? where are his supporters coming from? >> he is a new voice. he is talking about issues that matters to americans. he gives some life to the republican party that doesn't want the same old thing. sandra: donald trump, i sort of joked about you're saying he has not filed to run, paperwork for president and you think this is publicity stunt for him. >> be clear, only thing donald trump has had a press conference. not clear they were his supporters. they might have been fill-ins for a production shop. i worked for a real businessman, mike bloomberg. sandra: are you saying that donald trump is not a real
8:32 am
businessman? >> we know he is a good promoter. sandra: i have to open this up for discussion. sandra: i think you're giving one side. mike murphy may have a different side. he is real estate mogul is he not? >> he is a real estate mogul, agree comparing donald trump to mike bloomberg not a fair comparison. donald trump much better at self-promotion we've seen but businesses are very different. >> what has loom berg built in terms of the bloomberg business empire i would say more impressive, any building that donald put his name on. if you're looking strictly from financial perspective. sandra: but donald trump has thrown his hat in the ring. he has changed the conversation. quite frankly, people that were discounting him were very impressed when he did speak and way he spoke. he is changing the conversation. >> i think donald trump nailed the issues. i think talking about job creation, talking about isis, donald trump is on message and
8:33 am
he has a very good, strong, provocative message. sandra: but? >> this guy is talking about birther rights with obama before. goes, you have to be one or the other. have to be serious candidate who will have real impact or a publicity hound. >> he insults woman, if he doesn't like women he refers to them unattractive. people have not begun to what he has said to and about -- sandra: that subpoena a very good point. who wants to wade into that goulash what he said. sandra: other presidential candidates losers. >> it is good tv. if mike bloomberg jumped in we would see serious businessman. sandra: is this serious conversation? mike bloomberg will not run for president. >> he came close to 2008. >> let's put odds on it. what are odds bloomberg weighs in as democratic presidential candidate. people are waiting around. >> mike bloomberg stands on

8:35 am
$9 billion in assets. >> that is the problem. >> he has, we haven't gotten the real dirt on his finances. how you value, how you value is he putting on his assets. >> he is extremely successful business person. i also think he will help the republican party in that he is willing to say some things to attack the democratic party that other, more established politicians wouldn't say. >> this is republican primary. so republican primary is different than a general election. he will have to speak to republican voters about republican issues. i think it will be great tv. if i were the democrats i would be very happy to have trump in, go at it. sandra: what about scott walker what about the other candidates? you're just talking about a couple here. >> they're increasingly relevant. sandra: okay. >> seeing rubio and bush pull away. huckabee stay into it because he has got a base. if they separate i think the

field will narrow quickly. sandra: it is early, sir. >> maybe. may be early. sides are recall toking. we're five months away. >> you point out about rubio that he is a first-term senator, very similar to barack obama when he was elected as if that's a good thing? >> it's a thing. whether it is a good thing, look, i was on hillary's campaign at this point. what happens with a young, charismatic candidate a voice of change they can get momentum. politics is all about momentum. if you have momentum into the first few primaries you can be a force to reckon with. sandra: we have to go. what about bernie sanders and his rice on the left? >> bernie sanders is having a nice dialogue with himself. sandra: i didn't know you would be that quick. thank you. thank you for all of your comments this morning. >> that is funny. sandra: if you missed it, the u.s. open had it all last night, young star, heartbreaking defeat
