Fed Cut: Najarian's big question is will the Fed cut 25 or 50 basis points. Finerman is surprised that the market is rallying on the Fed rate cut anticipation. Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLU) led the stock market higher on Monday. Adami likes Public Service (PEG) into earnings.
Crude oil rose to a record $93.80. Reuters saying that gas prices will now play catch up with crude. Najarian continues to like the oil service sector, with Adami suggesting Tesoro (TSO) as a buying opportunity.
Warren Buffett: Doesn't think China is a bubble; he just thinks the market has run up. Buffett sold his entire stake in PetroChina (PTR) because he made a handsome profit, not because he thinks it won't go higher. The real concern with China is what will happen after the Olympics.
Chartology: Carter Worth joined the show to review the charts of Liz Claiborne (LIZ) and Eastman Kodak (EK). Worth points out that stocks worldwide are rallying but nobody is buying Liz Claiborne. On the other hand, the Eastman Kodak chart displays bullish trends going into earnings.
Earnings Preview: Procter and Gamble (PG) is set to report earnings on Tuesday and Clorox (CLX) will report Wednesday. Najarian reminds investors about Colgate (COL), which he think has more upside then Procter. Exxon Mobil (XOM) is set to report earnings on Thursday before the open.
Stem Cell: Genentech (DNA), Gilead Sciences (GILD), Amgen (AMGN) all reside in Silicon Valley. Scientists are now excited about the potential of stem cell research and California is positioned the best to benefit from the controversial process. Najarian would keep an eye on Myriad Genetics (MYGN) and Cepheid (CPHD) for genetic plays.
