The Federal Reserve is Keeping A Close Eye On Hurricane Rita
Well, hurricane Katrina will probably be the hot topic of
discussion with policymakers at the Federal Reserve tomorrow.
The Fed meets to decide whether to continue raising short-term
interest rates. Darren Gersh has a preview of what to expect.
DARREN GERSH, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT: After
10 quarter percentage point interest rate hikes in more than
a year, the Federal Reserve`s next move is no longer considered
a sure bet.
TOM GALLAGHER, POLITICAL ECONOMIST, ISI GROUP: Looking at
the futures markets, the market is the least sure about the
near-term pace of Fed policy than they have been since the
Fed started hiking rates.
GERSH: One reason, of course, is Katrina. Former Federal
Reserve Governor Laurence Meyer`s best guess is the cataclysm
will cut one percentage point off growth in the coming months.
But it is only a guess and the Fed faces uncertainties about
Katrina`s impact on both growth and inflation.
LAURENCE MEYER, VICE CHAIRMAN, MACROECONOMIC ADVISERS: Natural
disasters typically lead to stronger economic growth after
a period, so on the one hand it has to weigh the negative
hit immediately against the added strength next year. That`s
hard to put numbers on those.
GERSH: If Meyer is right, the economy will still be growing
at a healthy 3.75 percent, enough to convince the Fed to raise
rates tomorrow.
MEYER: The fundamental challenge is still to contain inflation
in an economy that has been growing above trend and is arguably
already at or close to full employment.
GERSH: But Alan Greenspan`s risk management philosophy is
to head off low- probability events that can cause large economic
pain. And in this case, former Fed Governor Lyle Gramley says
the big fear is consumers will pull back, seeing Katrina as
a warning to salt away some emergency cash.
LYLE GRAMLEY, SENIOR ECONOMIC ADVISER, STANFORD WASHINGTON
RESEARCH: I think in this case, the low probability, negative
consequence of a big rise in the personal saving rate will
lead them to pause tomorrow and wait for the smoke to clear.
GERSH: Other Fed watchers believe the central bank will use
tomorrow`s post meeting announcement to signal a more far-reaching
change, perhaps suggesting that monetary policy is no longer
on auto pilot.
GALLAGHER: That is, they probably drop measured pace -- which
has been the shorthand for 1/4 point rate hikes -- but say
that they are not done yet.
GERSH: Tomorrow`s meeting is not just a matter of simple
economics. The Federal Reserve won`t want to be seen as unsympathetic
should it decide to raise interest rates when so many hurricane
survivors are trying to rebuild their homes and businesses.

One on One With James Paulsen, Chief Investment Strategist
at Wells Capital Management
GHARIB: Our guest says today`s stock sell-off will not have
a lasting impact. He`s James Paulsen, chief investment strategist
at Wells Capital Management. Hi Jim, nice to have you on the
program again.
JAMES PAULSEN, CHIEF INVESTMENT STRATEGIST, WELLS CAPITAL
MANAGEMENT: Good to be here, Susie.
GHARIB: Tell us your take on today`s market action. You say
it`s not going to have a lasting impact.
PAULSEN: Well, it was certainly a nasty day. But fortunately
it follows a very good week last week and it`s kind of like
the markets have turned into weather forecasters here and
kind of erring on the side of expecting the worse, which is
sort of understandable after what we went through with Katrina.
I think chances are that Rita will prove to not be as bad
as people think or expect even if it does have some impact.
Over the pull, I think that we`re already seeing that some
of the lights are coming back on in Louisiana and could have
a dent for the economy for a quarter, a fiscal stimulus that`s
coming behind that to rebuild that area is likely to create
even faster growth when we look ahead.
GHARIB: So what are you saying long term? What is your expectation
as far as the market is concerned?
PAULSEN: I really like the market. I like... It seems like
it wants to go up. Even though we had this horrendous hurricane
with Katrina, the market last week got within a couple points,
the S&P 500 almost setting another new cycle high. And
I think that profits keep coming through unexpectedly better
than expected. I still think we got a shot yet, Susie, of
perhaps challenging the S&P 500 1300 level here before
the year is out.
GHARIB: Jim, what do you say to some of the statistics that
we`ve been giving that give us some feel for how the consumer
is feeling? Consumer sentiment at a 13-year low, very high
gas prices which obviously have got to be hurting consumers
and making them think twice about how they spend their money
and just a general sense that worries about the economy and
the stock market. You heard our report. Some consumers may
be on pause until they see that, you know, some bright lights
here.
PAULSEN: I think that the human tragedy of Katrina was very
emotional. The survey that went out to measure how consumers
were feeling was right around that time that that hit. And
I think that that big dip in consumer confidence that we saw
is likely to snap back a little bit when they do a survey
at a time a little more removed from the emotion of that event.
I think if you look outside of that confidence measure, Susie,
that a lot of the consumer statistics look pretty good. We`ve
been creating about 2.5 million jobs in the last year. Real
labor compensation has been growing 6 percent in the last
12 months. Household net worth is at all-time record highs.
Retail sales have been very strong even in the last report
that we got (INAUDIBLE). So I think in many ways if there
is a shock here in the short run, it`s much better than we
have it now than a year ago or two years ago.
GHARIB: If things are so good, if things are so good as you`re
painting, why aren`t we seeing stocks making a more dramatic
move higher?
PAULSEN: Well, I think that`s a good question. I think that
we`re building up a lot of possibility here because all year
long profits have been growing much faster than expected and
stock market has been flat. Interest rates per long-term bonds
have stayed flat as well. So stocks have gotten cheaper and
cheaper and cheaper relative to earnings all year long and
I think that reflects caution -- caution about the economy
rolling over, caution that Fed tightening will (INAUDIBLE)
the oil prices. I think that ultimately I think optimism might
win out.
GHARIB: I hope you`re right about that. Thanks so much, Jim.
PAULSEN: We`ll see. Thank you Susie.
GHARIB: We`ve been speaking with James Paulsen, chief investment
strategist at Wells Capital Management.

Sentencing Day For Ex- Tyco Titans Kozlowski & Swartz
YASTINE: Tyco`s former CEO Dennis Kozlowski and former CFO
Mark Swartz are heading to prison. They were sentenced today
for their part in stealing more than $150 million from the
conglomerate that they ran. Each could spend as much as 25
years behind bars, and both were ordered to pay almost a quarter
of a billion dollars in restitution and fines. Erika Miller
was in the courtroom and has the story.
ERIKA MILLER, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT: Former
Tyco CEO Dennis Kozlowski entered Manhattan supreme court
consoled by family members. But he did not leave the courthouse
after the sentencing because he and co-defendant Mark Swartz
were taken into custody immediately after their hearing. Kozlowski
and Swartz were each sentenced to 8 1/3 to 25 years in state
prison for stealing hundreds of millions of dollars from Tyco.
Kozlowski was also ordered to pay $97 million in restitution
to Tyco
and Swartz $37 million. In addition, Kozlowski was fined $70
million and Swartz $35 million. Since the pair received sentences
of more than six years, they likely will be sent to one of
New York state`s maximum security prisons. Afterwards, Kozlowski`s
lawyer said his client was disappointed.
STEPHEN KAUFMAN, KOZLOWSKI`S ATTORNEY: He`s taking it as
well as he can, but it`s obviously adverse and that`s had
a tremendous impact on him and his family.
MILLER: Before the sentence was announced, prosecutors asked
the judge for the maximum penalty of up to 30 years. They
said it was warranted given the magnitude and impact of the
theft, as well as the lack of remorse from the defendants.
And Kozlowski made a short plea for leniency. He asked the
judge to consider all the positive things he has done in his
life and pointed to 130 support letters from family, friends
and co-workers.
Kozlowski is the latest chief executive to be sentenced in
a wave of high-profile corporate scandals. Bernie Ebbers,
former head of WorldCom, was given 25 years for his role in
the accounting fraud that toppled that company. Ex-Adelphia
CEO John Rigas received 15 years for looting and fraud there.
Legal observers say there`s a common message.
GREGORY WALLANCE, ATTORNEY, KAYE SCHOLER: It`s the same message
that was sent by the judges in the Ebbers and the Rigas family
cases, which is crime doesn`t pay. White collar crime doesn`t
pay. And as a result of all these scandals, offenders are
going to be dealt with very, very harshly.
MILLER: Although both defendants are currently in custody,
they may be released. Their lawyers say they intend to request
bail pending appeal. Erika Miller, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT,
New York.

American Farmers Are Pumped About Biodiesel
GHARIB:
Jeff, for some American farmers, there could be a silver lining
in the recent rise in fuel prices. Sales of biodiesel, a fuel
made from vegetable oil, have been taking off in recent weeks.
As Diane Eastabrook reports, tax incentives and wider availability
could make biodiesel a very popular fuel.
DIANE EASTABROOK, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT:
If you
thought soybeans were only good for making tofu and soy milk,
think again. Oil from the crop is also used to make a clean-burning
fuel called biodiesel. Chicago-based Bell Fuels began distributing
the product as a diesel blend four years ago, but didn`t expect
it to ever take off.
ROBERT TROCH, CEO, BELL FUELS: I`ve been 50 years in this
business, and I said I never heard anything as crazy as that.
And I was wrong.
EASTABROOK: Troch says today biodiesel comprises what he
calls a significant percentage of his business. Commonwealth
Edison, a division of Exelon corporation, is one of Bell fuel`s
largest customers. It uses a biodiesel blend in more than
2,000 of its utility trucks.
WILLIAM PETTIT, DIRECTOR, EXELON FLEET SERVICES: We`re very
pleased
with bio. In terms of longevity, in terms of performance,
it does have a higher (INAUDIBLE) rating. We`ve been very
pleased overall.
EASTABROOK: Biodiesel is created through a chemical process
that separates glycerin from animal fats or vegetable oil.
The technology is very similar to the one used to make soaps
and detergents. That makes biodiesel production an ideal business
for Stepan Company, which also makes chemicals that go into
shampoos and fabric softeners. Logistics also makes biodiesel
a good business for Stepan.
JOHN VENEGONI, V.P., STEPAN COMPANY: So the fact that we
have a plant, our largest plant located in the state of Illinois,
makes it an ideal fit to support the Illinois farmer, as well
as the fuels distribution throughout Illinois.
EASTABROOK: Currently about three dozen U.S. companies produce
about 300 million gallons of biodiesel a year. But experts
think production could double in a few years as bigger companies
like Archer Daniels Midland get into the business. Some producers
say biodiesel`s biggest hurdle to widespread use is consumer
acceptance. But they are encouraged by the popularity of ethanol,
a corn-based fuel.
VENEGONI: When ethanol first started, people were a little
reluctant to put it in their tank. But once they did, once
they got comfortable with it, then they felt good about buying
the product.
EASTABROOK: Experts also think new Federal and state tax
incentives will increase demand for biodiesel and help make
it a smart alternative fuel for the future. Diane Eastabrook,

"Commentary" -- The Gas Tax
GHARIB: In the wake of hurricane Katrina, tonight`s
commentator has a radical suggestion to make. It could help
the economy, but it won`t help your wallet. Here`s Mark Zandi,
chief economist of economy.com.
MARK ZANDI, CHIEF ECONOMIST, ECONOMY.COM: The most serious
economic fallout from hurricane Katrina is the surge in gasoline
prices. If gasoline is still selling for $3 a gallon at Christmastime,
many of us will have the hard choice of whether to fill our
gasoline tank or to put fewer things under the tree. It may
thus seem counterintuitive to consider adopting a variable
gasoline tax. The idea is to impose an additional tax
such that retail gasoline prices do not fall below $3.
Say, for example, market gasoline prices go back to $2.50.
Then the added gasoline tax would be $0.50. There are three
key benefits to this proposal. First, the tax would reduce
gasoline consumption and thus our dependence on foreign-produced
oil. Our mounting dependence is a significant economic and
national security problem.
Second, the tax would raise significant amounts of revenue
for the Federal government. Using conservative assumptions,
this tax could raise more than $1 trillion for the Treasury
over the next decade. The entire financial hole in the Social
Security system could be filled with this revenue.
Third, most of the economic damage from $3 gasoline will
occur over the next several months, as we adjust to them.
Once that adjustment is over, using the tax to simply keep
gasoline prices from falling will have little further economic
impact. Passage of a variable gasoline tax would require deft
and very courageous policymaking, but something good would
then come out of the economic pain caused by Katrina. This
is Mark Zandi.

"Last Word" -- Martha, Martha, Martha
GHARIB: And finally tonight, will the real
Martha Stewart please stand up? If you ask that question on
her new television program tomorrow, all the Martha Stewarts
will stand up -- all 151 of them. The super homemaker has
invited 150 other Martha Stewarts to be in her audience. And
some of them have rather unusual credentials. Like Martha
Stewart of Smithville, Indiana, who shows the other Martha
Stewart how to clog dance. That Martha
Stewart says she gets kidded about her name all the time,
but she`s a real fan of the real one. Jeff.
YASTINE: I`m sure having a name like that helps you get restaurant
reservations at least in New York, right?
GHARIB: Good thing she has a good sense of humor about it.
YASTINE: Certainly.

"Paul Kangas' Stocks In The News"
YASTINE: And tomorrow`s Fed meeting and of course higher
oil prices were the one-two punch that took down the major
indexes today. The selling began at the start of trading,
with the Dow dropping nearly 60 in the first hour. Industrial
stocks were hit hard, with General Motors down more than 3
percent. Even GE was off more than 1 percent. The NASDAQ was
not spared either, losing 16 by noontime, with the homebuilder
and semiconductor stocks coming in for selling. And the Dow
ultimately gave back all of Friday`s gains and finished with
a closing loss of 84.31 points to finish at 10,557.63. The
NASDAQ Composite fell over 15 points to close at 2145.26.
And the S&P index ending off nearly seven at 1231 and
a fraction. In the bond market, the 10-year note rose 8/32
to 100 1/32, putting the yield at 4.25 percent.
And we start things off with Wal-Mart stores (WMT) which rose
$0.14, but the stock still hovering near three-year lows.
Wal-Mart, Exxon and Hewlett-Packard were the only other Dow
gainers today.
Time Warner (TWX) falling $0.36.
Pfizer (PFE) was off $0.30.
An here`s ExxonMobil (XOM) which jumped $0.93 to a new all-time
high as fears of the Rita storm could enter the Gulf of Mexico
and further disrupt oil production.
Here`s a quick run down of some of the other oil firms that
are getting a boost today, BP Plc (BP), Chevron (CVX), Murphy
Oil (MUR), Royal Dutch Petro, all with exposure on the region
and all doing quite nicely.
Lucent Technology (LU) rather losing a nickel.
And here is General Electric (GE) dropping $0.42.
EMC Corp (EMC) gained $0.28.
Blockbuster (BBI) down $0.14. CEO Tom Antiocho acknowledged
to the "Wall Street Journal" that the video rental
business is quote, in the tank and so is the stock for another
new all-time low. Antiocho says he does not expect Blockbuster
to default on its debt but said the Hollywood movie studios
quote, had a legitimate reason to be concerned about the entire
video business.
Motorola (MOT) losing $0.43.
Hewlett-Packard (HWP) gaining $0.54. It`s buying a software
IT firm, Peregrine Systems for $425 million in cash and also
a private firm, (INAUDIBLE), that one for an undisclosed price.
Shares in Spinnaker Exploration (SKE) vaulted over 30 percent.
Norsk Hydro is making a $2.5 billion bid to buy Spinnaker.
That will boost its oil production capacity in the Gulf of
Mexico.
Shares of Nike "B" (NKE) were off and running,
up almost $5. The athletic shoe maker reporting a 32 percent
jump in first quarter profits and it beat estimates by a sizeable
margin.
But quite a difference for another sportswear maker, Russell
Corp (RML), which the stock fell nearly three bucks after
management cut profit estimates for the rest of the year.
Inventories damaged by hurricane Katrina and lower sales to
Wal-Mart to blame there.
Carnival Corp (CCL) jumped $1.75. The cruise operator says
its fuel costs are going up but so are the number of people
taking cruises and spending money on those cruises in the
third quarter. It reported profits of $1.36 a share. That
was a penny above estimates.
Capitalsource (CSE) gaining over $4. It will pay out more
than $5 a share in two special dividend payments as the company
switches to a real estate investment trust structure.
And Chiquita Brands (CQB) gaining over $2 on a BB&T capital
"buy" recommendation.
Over on the NASDAQ, Google (GOOG) rising more $3.50.
Microsoft (MSFT) fell $0.07.
Apple Computer (AAPL) gained $1.43.
Intel (INTC) dropping a little bit there.
Amgen (AMGN) gaining $1.31.
Cisco Systems (CSCO) falling a quarter.
Apollo Group (APOL) though dropping nearly $4. The operator
of for profit education firms like the University of Phoenix
lowered revenue forecasts slightly and will take a $0.01 charge
due to some of its Gulf Coast campuses damaged by hurricane
Katrina.
Ebay (EBAY) off a fraction. Bear Stearns downgraded the stock.
Dell Inc (DELL) dropping $0.55 and approaching a new one-year
low.
And Sears Holdings (SHLD) dropped down about $4.26.
Sirius Satellite Radio (SIRI) closed down $0.35. The satellite
radio firm upped its revenue projection for 2005, but that
was still less than what analysts were expecting.
Hoku Scientific (HOKU) jumped nearly $3. This is a fuel cell
device maker getting a boost. It came public back in early
August.
TBC (TBCC) soared over $8. It`s being acquired by Sumitomo
America and makes and distributes replacement automobile tires.
And Integrity Financial (IFCB) surging over $1.85, Integrity
being purchased by FMB in a stock and cash deal about $20.86
a share in cash. It provides two North Carolina banking houses.
Those are our stocks in the news tonight. Susie.
