are all believers in the product. the ceo in a fox business exclusive. "countdown to the closing bell" begins right now. liz: good afternoon, everybody. it is the last hour of trading and the operative word of the day is white as in very light volume. that could help explain why stocks have retreated from the record highs we saw yesterday and the day before because if only a few people are buying into a rally we can quickly get a down day like today. dow jones industrials down about it is six points. the s&p losing seven. the nasdaq down 22. again, pretty much hovering, languishing at the lows of the session for all the major

indices. we have talked about lagging computer sales for years now. sony is forecasting an annual loss in six and seven years driven in part by expenses to get out of the personal computer business. right now shares of sony going down by seven percentage points. that is $1.26 cut for the stock. sony is still up about 3% year to date. bases reporting 3.2% increase in first-quarter profits, but that increased all short of expectations. macy's is still sticking with the outlook saying i is improvig business trends. we look at shares slightly lower at the moment i a quarter of a percent. just slightly off the six-month highs. sears has been trimming back the canadian operations. the retailer is considering

selling all of the stores in canada. every single one. sometimes they moved to the upside when you show those kind of moves, but not today, down nearly 3% at the moment. it has been an ugly year especially around february, march. shares down 24%. quite an interesting day in the treasury market displayed a stronger-than-expected jump in april producer prices shows pricing power for manufacturers and they did rise six-tenths of a percent last month. the 10-year treasury yield hit a new low of 2.25% at one point today. when we say new low, we mean recent low. why didn't we see yield go higher after the data? the traders at the new york stock exchange, cme and the nymex. if there is fear in the market,

a move into treasuries, that is what we saw yesterday too. >> you stole my thunder. bonds are not my thing, but we look at the 10-year treasury yield, so the question becomes why is the 10-year treasury yield not moving when we get the ppi data stronger-than-expected. a bit of a troubling sign. people are really concerned about growth in this market. therefore you have to be concerned of valuations. price to sales ratio is at all-time high. when you look at valuation, the market cap going forward, we don't believe the markets doesn't believe the growth story in the economy going forward therefore the valuation will be too high. liz: this market vindicating the bears are about to have a win. marketwatch in this building at

fox, it says stocks are telling you a bear market is coming. are they? is that the signal we look for on that? >> there are a lot of other things we look at that we have gotten smarter about: direction on the market. we are still bullish on this, we don't see any indication we will have a massive selloff. we will have to see that happen a couple more sessions. liz: what signs do you see a bear market is coming? i get a correction, but a bear market overall? >> i don't get that sign. with respect to the 10-year as an indication of a bear market coming, what we're seeing more in the 10-year as far as what is contributing to the strength that futures itself and the yield falling, if the relative value of the u.s. 10-year versus what we're seeing over in europe, these artificially suppressed rates in europe, if

you're looking for a comparable fixed income product, what are you going to do? are you going to have a german pang under 1.1%, a french under 2%? when you look at it through that lens, 2.5% for u.s. 10-year, which everybody would agree is a much safer investment, it doesn't look too bad. there is a big enough disparity where these things could still continue to fall as far as the yield in the u.s. and it wouldn't necessarily precipitate with the equity market fall in addition. for the short-term, they could be mutually exclusive, which is counterintuitive to historical price action. liz: there is bullish action in oil at the moment. we have a short term forecast for the summer that says gasoline prices are going higher, oil probably goes higher, $102.16 per barrel

today. >> i think repeat earlier in the season, about six weeks ago retail gas about 308. nowadays below 300. we have gasoline, that will be a very sensitive number. looking at gasoline dross today, so they are building in crude oil. that was the session high. we are right up against the resistance. if we could take it out by the end of the week, we could be at 105. it is still pretty strong here. liz: thank you so much for joining us on the floor show. many of us remember it like it was yesterday. the crippling impact of the financial crisis on the market, on many of you. fox news bret baier host of special report with bret baier sat down with former u.s.

treasury secretary to get his views on this. reflections on the financial crisis. he is standing by from washington, d.c. listen, treasury secretary tim geithner was at the heart of all of those negotiations during the drama of that time, what struck you most about what he said today? spiege>> a number of different headlines from this interview. he was the head of the new york fed at the beginning of the crisis and became treasury secretary as it went on. a couple of stories, charlie gaaparino broke yesterday about this lawsuit in new york and a deposition he gave that did not seem to track what the book was with when he knew aig, the insurance was really a threat to the global financial situation. in the deposition he suggest that it happened they relate,

too late. he had a handle on it early. he kind of said once you see the full deposition, it will lineup. other headlines, he walked back comments about too big to fail being misguided policy. he said you cannot say you solve that problem, but we have made it much, much better and addressed real criticism from the special inspector for the tarp funds. politically in washington there was a lot of eyebrows raise about his description of a prep session where the communications team and dan pfeiffer specifically prepping the secretary for sunday show said he should say social security did not add to the deficit. tim geithner didn't feel comfortable with it, that is how he wrote it in the book. for the white house trying specifically to mislead the american people? >> i was never in the position

nor anybody to ask me to do that, neve you never would havee that. what he was doing was to point out that we don't want to look like our proposals to solve the long-term fiscal problems were something that would appear to some as cutting social security benefits to cover the shortfal shortfalls. >> i guess it reads a little differently because you say i remember in the prep session before i appeared on sunday shows, i objected he wanted me to say social security didn't contribute to the deficit. it wasn't a main driver, but he did contribute. it was a dog whistle to the left. he had to explain it was a phrase to the democratic base single and went to protect social security. it wouldn't be a dog whistle if he ask you to say this is just not a main driver. >> we thought it was good to be vulnerable to this misperception

on either side. we could solve the deficit problem on the back of social security. i thought it was very interesting. >> but it does contribute. >> to the long-term fiscal problem? yeah, it is just a math thing. >> and obviously walking back something that is in the book is back and forth. one more thing quickly, for the "wall street journal," u.s. backs off tight mortgage roles. that will be a tough balancing act and he understands concerns of lawmakers who think that maybe open the door to boom and bust down the road. melissa: i have talked too many billionaires who thought he did a great job. it is interesting to see the appears to be. all if you can catch his full interview tonight on special

liz: blackberry is not dead. how dare you say that. likblackberry is looking to conr emerging markets. a d3 touchscreen smartphone in indonesia.

emerging market. it will hit stores may 15 retelling less than $200. will it help blackberry grab international market share or will this be another failed attempt to try and compete for rivals such as apple, samsung and nokia? blackberry used to have 70 plus market share in this sector. used to. jaguar financial chairman and ceo. because you are the bull, you think this may be away for blackberry to get its muscle back. why? >> absolutely. the key as we have a transformational ceo, an enormous difference focusing on niche plays and niche market. indonesia, southeast asia,

india, vietnam, places like that, those are niche places like renova has been successful at. liz: and now let's go to michael. shoveling sand against the tide? >> i agree is a transformational ceo. the transformation are going to see overtimes is this company getting out of the phone market. liz: why would he released a brand-new phone right now if he was getting out of the phone market? >> the only places they are doing well at all our markets like venezuela, indonesia. i think this is the right strategy for now. but i think it is only a matter of time until those markets end up looking like our market in the canadian market where people start to move past blackberry. the future of this company is in telemedicine, automobiles.

if you look to our three years down the road, you have a hard time finding blackberry in enterprise device management or in handsets. the only handsets they will have will be in the few emerging markets like the one we mentioned. liz: michaels is an $8 price target, yours is at 17. there's a huge discrepancy in the belief here. you both agree with me on that. here are a couple of weeks ago, he has a plan keep blackberry viable, or does he? what if you start to break off pieces of it because the parts are more valuable than the hall? >> he could end up doing that, but right now it he has done is totally restructured the company, he has brought in a management team, he downsized the workforce enormously, scaled off the real estate, generating about 275 million.

the balance sheet is looking a lot more formidable than it ever has. michael is absolutely right, his focus now is software and services. mobile device management is going to incorporate a strengthened and secure dbm platform as part of the play. he is very focused o on the car infotainment business. they have a big market share there as well the software as michael pointed out. liz: down 90%. i don't know, could there be a play here? five years from now does this stock, does it exist, what does it look like? >> it really is a call option on these new businesses. despite the operational improvement and the outsourcing and the restructuring, this company burn 600 million in cash

last quarter which was much higher than expected. they haven't stemmed the bleeding yet. you are buying a caller option on a new operating system and new market not in the smartphone market, but the problem is there still a lot of value. $5 per share that we can still lose in the smartphone market that will inevitably happen. you are betting on something that is hard to value, hard to see how to execute and it could be 10 years before receive it works or not. melissa: michael, thank you. senior marketing analyst. thank you. thanks so much. the closing bell ringing in 39 minutes. the yahoo ceo buying the company behind the self-destructing messaging apps, so they say, called blink. in the blink of an eye she is shutting it down.
