on that. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, frank. good morning, michelle. a lot of buzz on wall street a report from reuters saying that [ indiscernible ] capital management and other private equity firms are interested in buying all or part of safeway. that would be a huge deal. safeway is the second biggest supermarket chain in the country. it has a market valuation of $8 billion. safeway recently adopted a poison pill in its shareholder rights plan to avoid a potential hostile takeover after an activist investor took a large stake in the company. it's been making all sorts of moves to beef up its bottom line as it's getting out of its canadian operations selling those for $5.7 billion, also going to exit the chicago market by selling its dominic's chain. wall street thinks this could happen. right now safeway stock is soaring higher by more than 10%. that's a reason why carl icahn is a billionaire. it's all about buying low and selling high. he got into netflix in a big way over the summer. he bought the stock at $58 and this month he revealed he sold

it not all of it but a lot of it at more than $300 and made a profit of 457% on the stock. stock market overall pulling back after a nice day yesterday. corporate earnings a big reason for that. disappointing earnings from companies like caterpillar. the dow down 59, nasdaq down 25, s&p down 8. netflix is up 2.25% after dropping 9% yesterday. back to you. >> why can't we get stocks like that? >> reporter: got to make the right moves at the right time. >> guess so. thank you, jason brooks. time now 6:46. let's get a check on traffic with liza. >> good morning, everybody. we are going to talk about the commute along 680. chp is checking on reports of a new accident that happened in the southbound direction approaching crow canyon road. at least one lane of traffic is shut down so expect some backups heading through there momentarily. it certainly has been delayed along highway 4. we had a major accident. it's an overturn accident that happened in the eastbound direction.

so it's counter-commute approaching pacheco. you will see slow traffic now in both directions of highway 4 and not too far from there, i- 80 is jammed westbound very slow leaving the highway 4 interchange. that stays heavy through berkeley and emeryville bound for the macarthur maze. just remember, fog is a factor for many commutes out there. the bay bridge toll plaza, the metering lights are on and traffic is backed up from the foot of the maze. the san mateo bridge we haven't had any major problems there. westbound traffic still just chugging along with no problems towards the peninsula. the golden gate commute we have been talking about the fog. you can see it right there. southbound traffic looks good heading into the city and an earlier accident cleared from lanes, 101 outside of the waldo tunnel. just a reminder if you plan to catch bart they are offering full service this morning with no delays. but in the midday they will be suspending service between lafayette and pleasant hill. they will be offering a bus bridge instead between noon and 3:30. so expect possible delays on the bart system in the midday. that's a look at "kcbs

traffic." here's lawrence. >> yeah, very cloudy around, good part of the bay area this morning. the fog is settled in again. looks like it's going to stick around through the morning hours but by the afternoon, what a difference in temperatures we are going to see from the coast to the valleys. still, out the door right now we have some foggy conditions, dense fog advisory in effect in the north bay valleys until 11:00 today. some of the visibilities less than a quarter of a mile this morning. by the afternoon, plenty of sunshine in the bay and the valleys but still continuing patchy fog and chilly at the coastline. then minor changes over the next couple of days. but maybe more changes as we head in toward the latter part of the weekend. right now we have a blocking ridge of high pressure that is sending the jet stream well to the north of the bay area keeping us dry for the foreseeable future. a eventually a couple of lows undercut this ridge of high pressure and a few more clouds and maybe cooling temperatures coming our way over the weekend. today plenty of clouds outside. we have delays at sfo of over an hour on arriving flights. by the afternoon, though, plenty of sunshine and about 65

degrees. if you are headed around the u.s., we have 48 partly cloudy in chicago. 61 in denver. 81 degrees in houston. rain in new york could cause some delays there. temperatures expected to be in the 80s in the interior valleys. 60s and 70s hazy sunshine inside the bay but only 50s out toward the coastline. next couple of days we'll keep those temperatures down a few degrees and, well, a few more clouds over the weekend but lots of sunshine on monday and tuesday. time for your schoolcast today. livermore high school looking good a little chilly to start 50 degrees. 75 and warming up though by lunchtime and the home of the cowboys enjoying their homecoming week, 84 degrees for your final bell. if you would like to nominate your school for our schoolcast, go to kpix.com/schoolcast. >> thank you. >> the cowboys! >> go, cowboys! >> right. >> absolutely. go, livermore! it is 6:49 now. something's fishy in santa cruz and it stinks. len ramirez shows us what's in the harbor. >> reporter: thousands of fish
