This stock -- taken taken stock research CEO it's now.

You say get rid of this one -- as a fiscal clip decision on your part -- you just Alec but the stock is doing right now.

-- Cheryl this is based on our quantitative models funny factor taken power -- rating which -- in bearish on McDonald's since last march.

This bump up in same store sales may have happened because of a very aggressive pricing on their dollar menu.

A couple of analysts this morning of pointed out that this may -- net -- so.

I think it's been a relief rally here of about 9% as a few brokerage firms recommended in the head of these.

Same store sales figures but here's a stock that's been underperforming the market for almost a year I think this is a great time to get out of McDonald's.

11% year today to that certainly would make would make.

Cents John on the sales basis that the same time there are some stocks that you also say that we should be buying right now on I think what the want to surprised me was -- -- You like Marissa Mayer you liked what she's doing -- you said this is a stock down.

This is definitely a stock to own this is almost the perfect storm they -- -- away from Google after missing on their previous.

Choice she's turn the whole culture in the -- -- Yahoo! around in four months.

She's got a big pot of cash to play live from the Alley -- -- cell.

Initially there -- gonna buy back stock but now she's rethinking that and making some small acquisitions and the focus is what's interest thing.

These -- acquisitions in the mobile space she's buying teams that she's known from Google of young engineers with expertise in mobile.

They bought stamps they bought on the air and they're shutting down -- business is so what's the rationale.

She's making a big commitment to mobile going forward by hiring -- very very Smart young young engineers.

And you also met a recommending eBay you today that 70% you say right the way but also -- veriphone earnings are coming out on Verifone.

This was a little bit of a different story of -- you know the stock is up 22% year over year.

Mobile payments leader do you think that they really can't stay strong in that segment.

By favored in the space is eBay but Verifone is very interesting there were very brutal about guidance in the stock dropped from 58 to 28.

You now have UBS recommending them less the last week with a target to 39.

I think the earnings which are due out on Thursday and have the potential to surprise positively six expectations are so low.

They've also introduced a really -- product.

You can buy lottery tickets at the pump.

There have a pilot program in Minnesota with seven gas stations this could revolutionize the lottery business is a lot of people too busy to.

Stop off at a convenience -- so.

We -- into the -- business in the lottery we've seen become very very Paul but not popular has with the F powerball.

Up already -- -- put names here before let's go market -- or other stocks that you're saying besides McDonald's.

Our viewers should sell now before the end of the year you say DuPont you -- dollar.

General -- pot you say it's one of the weakest stocks in the Dow.

It is down 14% of us through must but -- general have been set to star during the recession why it might not like -- this one.

I'm not liking and -- based on two things -- technical action in the stock is just awful and there's been a lot of insider selling.

Here's a company that's gonna report earnings this week that has beat estimates for eight of the last quarter's.

And my question is why is this stock trading so poorly we've got a bearish taken power -- rating which says that the twenty factors all.

Sort of sum up to a negative potential for the next six months.

I prefer and a market climate like we're in right now not to guess about stocks that are due to report earnings so.

If it's got a bearish rating and -- due to report I'd rather get that out of my portfolio and reevaluate once the earnings are out they'll probably be on the earnings per share but right the guidance may be weak enough to push the stock down -- just wondering why it's trading so poorly after eight straight quarters of positive -- Well we're gonna find out later on this -- -- from Dollar General mark chicken -- -- -- much for the advice appreciate it.

Thanks -- President Obama.
