[laughter] sh

liz: why? >> what you're seeing with yellen's testimony this week, basically taking the fed raises off the table from immediate standpoint so june is not in the cards. so if the fed isn't raising rates, the dollar is going to be weaker, plus the euro has been so low for the last six weeks or three months, actually, that the export growth out of europe is really expanded quite a bit. you're going to see numbers of german gdp growth and so on and so forth do better. i think the euro is going to do before. a low of 104, and i see a little resistance at 112. i think it's going to go to 117. liz: kevin? >> i don't think we'll reach parity at all. on the upside $1.15. liz: howard lutnick is wrong? he's been right and right on the dollar. >> in these conditions, i can't see given where we are in the cycle right now. liz: now to oil, kevin, oil has continued to plummet today, happens to be strengthening because the dollar got weak, if the weakness continues, does that mean oil has seen the lowest level

liz: okay. to stephane, you know, i have to bring you into this conversation especially considering it was 15 years ago that you were very much a focus of nasdaq 5000. how is it different this time? you had a company that eventually became valued at about a billion dollarss. the globe.com. >> well, it's a fundamentally different time now. back then there were only 200 million internet users, now there are two billion, and people spend ten times or 100 times more time on the internet. so people understand far better now what the internet is, let alone social networking and how to value it. and the market now trades based on 20 times multiple to earnings versus 100 back at the time. so valuations are in line, they actually fit with the revenues and profits the companies are generating, it's no longer just about the possibilities of what the internet represents. liz: well, i agree and also let's remember at the time you had 10% of all internet traffic visiting the globe.com every single day. what y

david: great to have liz claman back. liz: glad to be back. what should we do, go back to nicole petallides. energy stocks a big dip in the after market session when it came to oil itself. what about the names behind it? >> basically now for the first quarter the dow is negative for the year 2015. you saw oil pull back third day in a row. energy stocks, chevron, exxon, come under pressure. chevron is down 1 1/2%. david: one of those days up, one day down. united healthcare. yesterday they were booming. today they're down with rest of health care. >> they make the huge deal. move to all-time highs. dave, right to your point, look with they will have pullback today. >> talk about mergers and acquisition, huge deal in the cable world, $10 billion. >> this is over $10 billion deal for charter. it is up 5 1/2%. in fact, you sigh they had a nice run.
