12/14/05: The U.S. Trade Deficit Reaches A New Record

SUSIE GHARIB: The U.S. trade deficit stands at a new record tonight, almost $69 billion. The Commerce Department said today that the gap between what America imports and exports grew by 4.4 percent in October. Economists had expected a decline and many are now concerned that this ballooning trade deficit could slow overall U.S. economic growth. Scott Gurvey reports.

SCOTT GURVEY, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT: The cost of imported oil fell in October and most economists believed that would lead to a smaller gap between imports and exports. They were wrong. Instead, record trade deficits were posted with China, Canada, Europe and Mexico, resulting in another new record for the overall trade deficit: $68.9 billion. The trade gap for the year is now on target to reach $718 billion. That would be a whopping 16 percent jump over last year`s total. Today`s report is leading many economists to lower their estimate of GDP growth for the year and is raising concern that the United States is unable to compete with other countries in a free trade environment.

ROBERT BRUSCA, CHIEF ECONOMIST, FACT AND OPINION ECONOMICS: They have low wages across the board, and we really haven`t found a comparative advantage in an area that`s big enough to compensate for the areas where we have a comparative disadvantage and that`s the problem. And so the level playing field, the Doha round, forming new trade alliances, enlarging NAFTA -- all these things just make the trade deficit bigger and bigger and bigger faster.

GURVEY: Normally, huge trade deficits would be reflected in a nation`s currency. But trading partners such as Japan and China have been building up their foreign currency reserves -- in effect, supporting the value of the dollar. At some point, foreigners` willingness to hold dollars should diminish. Until that happens, many say relief on the deficit front will be minimal at best.

LAKSHMAN ACHUTHAN, MANAGING DIRECTOR, ECONOMIC CYCLE RESEARCH: I would expect it to improve in 2006 as the U.S. growth throttles back a little bit, while growth in Europe and in Asia firms further. So on the margin, I suspect that we`ll see the deficit improve a little bit. But in the big picture, it`s unlikely to go away, because we just consume much more than we export to the rest of the world.

GURVEY: A new agreement with China to limit the level of textile imports was reached last month, but the lower level of textile imports was far outweighed by increases in imports of televisions, toys and computers. Scott Gurvey, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT, New York.

12/14/05:The President's Contributions To The Country's Economic Health

PAUL KANGAS: The Bush administration economic team argues the trade deficit is just one measure of the economy`s health. Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez told reporters one reason the U.S. has a trade deficit is because we are growing faster than other big economies around the world. As Darren Gersh reports, today`s pep talk is part of the administration`s campaign to shore up confidence in its handling of the economy.

DARREN GERSH, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT: The Bush administration delivered a one-two PR punch today. First, the president admitting much of the pre-war intelligence on Iraq was wrong, but defending his decision to oust Saddam Hussein. Then, the president`s economic team talked up Mr. Bush`s record on growth and jobs.

JOHN SNOW, TREASURY SECRETARY: Over the course of the last year, we`ve seen 1.8 million new jobs. In the last quarter, the economy grew at 4.3 percent.

GERSH: Heading into a congressional election year, the White House clearly believes it deserves more credit for what it calls a good economy. Democrats see it differently, pointing to the record trade deficit, record natural gas prices and job losses at auto makers like GM.

REP. NANCY PELOSI (D) MINORITY LEADER: The Bush administration can say all they want that the American people are enjoying a better economy, but if they can`t convince the American people of that, then I think they have a tough case.

GERSH: Tough Democrats say because real average hourly earnings have fallen 1.6 percent over the last 12 months.

REP. ROBERT MENENDEZ (D) NJ: While corporate profits have soared, incomes for average Americans simply have not. They have been stagnant.

GERSH: The Administration dismisses that as class warfare, pointing out after-taxed incomes have risen more than 6 percent since 2001 and workers may soon be seeing more in their paychecks.

SNOW: I think we`re really at a tipping point here where we`ve seen a couple years of high returns to capital. I think we`re going to see now returns to labor begin to pick up.

GERSH: Many economists see the Bush economic record as mixed.

JOEL PRAKKEN, CHAIRMAN, MACROECONOMIC ADVISERS: The administration can legitimately take credit for applying fiscal stimulus to an economy that needed a boost coming out of the recession in 2001. It would be incorrect, I think, to overstate, particularly, the ongoing importance of the stimulus, since those tax cuts are now several years behind us.

GERSH: And it doesn`t look like the economy really needs more stimulus. The Federal Reserve is signaling that output may not be able to keep growing at 4 percent or more without risking an outburst of inflation. Darren Gersh, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT, Washington.

12/14/05:One On One With Hank McKinnell, CEO of Pfizer

SUSIE GHARIB: America`s business leaders expect the economy to stay strong next year and that`s despite the challenges of rising health care and energy costs. That`s the result of a new survey of chief executives out today by the Business Roundtable. Looking at the group`s outlook index, the results came in at 101.4, a very bullish reading. That`s also the second highest level in the survey`s history, trailing only the first quarter of this year. As for specific issues affecting corporate America, the CEOs say their greatest cost pressures are in healthcare and energy. This afternoon I talked with the head of the Business Roundtable, Pfizer CEO Hank McKinnell and began by asking him what was the survey`s most important finding.

HANK MCKINNELL, CHAIRMAN & CEO, PFIZER: To me, the most important finding is that CEOs of America`s largest companies remain confident in the growth of the economy well into next year in spite of some rather exceptional events: high energy prices and the impact of the devastation on the Gulf coast and damage from hurricanes in Florida. It`s quite remarkable the economy is this resilient.

GHARIB: And I found it interesting that this is one of the most bullish outlooks that you`ve had in the history of doing this survey. Why do you think CEO`s are so optimistic?

McKINNELL: Well, on all measures from expectations from future revenue to hiring to capital expenditures, these are very strong results. It does show a quite strong bounce back from the somewhat depressed expectations just after hurricane Katrina. But it shows the strength of the economy in spite of some unusual events.

GHARIB: Looking specifically at the results, you mentioned capital spending. I`m wondering, were you surprised that 56 percent of the CEOs surveyed said that they planned to increase capital spending over this next six months, when only a few months ago in your September survey, the numbers were much, much lower.

McKINNELL: They were. This is not too unusual at this point in the cycle. Recovery from recessions are usually led by the consumer, by consumer spending which accounts for well over two-thirds of the American economy. But at this point in the cycle, as factories get close to capacity, as business confidence remains strong, businessmen then make those kind of investments in future capacity and future productivity.

GHARIB: As for economic growth, the CEOs in your survey said that they expect the GDP to grow by 3.3 percent in 2006. That`s compared to their current forecast of 3.4 to 3.5 percent for this year. Given that the Federal Reserve seemed to signal yesterday that it`s in the final phase of raising interest rates, do you expect GDP growth to notch a little bit higher?

McKINNELL: Well, this survey was conducted before the Fed`s announcement. But I do think the opportunity for less increases in interest rate, hopefully the tax cuts being made permanent, which would avoid a tax increase, which would be a very bad thing at this point in the economy and the business confidence that we see in this cycle and very strong productivity growth, 4.7 percent in the last quarter, I think that leaves lots of room for non-inflationary growth in the economy.

GHARIB: The CEOs continue to rate skyrocketing health care costs as the greatest cost pressure. As the CEO of the world`s largest pharmaceutical company, what do you think is a solution to this very serious problem?

McKINNELL: I think there`s several things we need do. First of all is deal with the crisis in health care costs created by legal liability. We need to rein in the plaintiff`s bar here. Secondly, we need to bring the benefits of information technology to health care. The latest estimate I`ve seen is $165 billion in benefits. A bill has passed the Senate. We need to make sure there`s similar legislation in the House and finally, as you know from a book I`ve written on the subject, we need to spend less money on sick care treating heart attacks and strokes and more money on real health care, preventing those heart attacks and strokes through an emphasis on prevention and wellness.

GHARIB: On the other subject of the survey is employment and plans for hiring. Again, the CEOs were quite optimistic in their expectations to hire. What is this telling you from your group? What is the message here?

McKINNELL: Well, we`ve seen in the economic data for some time now strong productivity gains, which means there`s less need to hire people. But also an increase in overtime numbers, which means people didn`t yet have the confidence to actually take on new permanent employees. That seems to be shifting. The economy is growing fast enough and the outlook looks secure enough that people are now making decisions to hire. Some 40 percent of the CEOs plan to add to employment so that means there`s more good jobs for more Americans based on sound economic principles.

GHARIB: Mr. Mckinnell, thank you so much. We appreciate your time as always.

McKINNELL: Susie, thank you.

12/14/05: Identity Theft- Part 1: Risky Business

SUSIE GHARIB: Whether you head to the mall or plan to shop on the Internet this holiday season, be careful as you pull out your wallet. Identity theft is a growing problem. Millions of Americans have already had their identities compromised, causing hours of frustration and paperwork. Tonight, correspondent Stephanie Dhue kicks off a two-part series on identity theft. She begins with a look at how you may already be at risk.

STEPHANIE DHUE, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT: In the aftermath of hurricane Katrina.

RONALD VILELA, IDENTITY THEFT VICTIM: They broke through this window and climbed in, unlocked the little latch that opens the window.

DHUE: Ronald Vilela`s apartment was looted and his identity hijacked. Thieves stole his checkbook.

VILELA: They came in here and this is exactly where I kept my checkbook and this is where they stole it and they came and this is my sock drawer where I usually hide a lot of stuff.

DHUE: When he noticed money missing from his account, Vilela immediately filed reports with the bank, police and major credit agencies. Now, he`s on constant alert.

LARRY JOHNSON, SPECIAL AGENT, U.S. SECRET SERVICE: They`re still out there. They`re still walking around with my checkbooks. And so and until somebody figures it out, that they are still out there and still writing checks, it`s the potential for them to keep doing it over and over and over again.

DHUE: Thieves don`t have to break in to steal someone`s identity. They weed through trash for personal information, hit mailboxes for outgoing mail, and rip off information from business dumpsters. And identity thieves are using the Internet to increase their potency. Larry Johnson is the special agent in charge of the Secret Service`s electronic crimes task force.

JIM MALONEY, SECURITY CHIEF, CORILLIAN: One keystroke and he`s got thousands of identities as opposed to two or three identities being stolen from a dumpster.

DHUE: One of the easiest scams thieves use to swipe identities is through what`s called "phishing," spelled with a PH. Phishing is a mass e- mail hoax made to look like a request from a legitimate company or government agency. People are tricked into giving out personal information. Despite warnings not to respond to unsolicited e-mail, people still do. Security experts say identity thieves look for the weakest link to snare unsuspecting computer users.

MALONEY: As an industry, the web sites themselves are fairly well protected and what the phishers and hackers perceived as the weak point in the (INAUDIBLE) system was the end user and their PC.

DHUE: And online scams are growing more sophisticated. People who bank online or invest using the web risk having their keystrokes watched. Thieves monitor sites and then track the keystrokes to steal passwords.

MALONEY: Keystroke logging is done by, basically, a virus or a Trojan that gets downloaded to the PC and it captures your keystrokes and periodically collects those together and sends them off to another PC so that person can look at them.

DHUE: If caught, identity thieves can be hard to prosecute. To avoid detection, criminals steal small amounts from large numbers of people, often across borders.

JOHNSON: We`re now spending a lot of time with our law enforcement friends overseas and training them about what to look for and how to deal with this type of crime.

DHUE: As identity theft continues to rise, the fight against it is focused on educating businesses and consumers how to protect themselves. That story tomorrow night. Stephanie Dhue, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT, Washington.

12/14/05: "Money File"-Be Charitable But Careful

SUSIE GHARIB: In the "money file" tonight, `tis the season of giving, but don`t let the bad guys steal your holiday spirit. Here`s Terri Cullen, personal finance columnist for "The Wall Street Journal" online.

TERRI CULLEN, REPORTER, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL ONLINE: Before you open your heart, and your wallet, this holiday season, take the time to make sure the charity is worthy of your generosity. Many are so poorly run that most donations go toward paying salaries and administrative costs rather than helping the charity`s cause. Some phony charities sometimes make donation requests using the name of a charity that sounds very close to the name of a legitimate, well-known charity to try and trick folks into giving. And gifts to some charities don`t qualify for a tax deduction. So check up on a charity or foundation before making a donation. The Better Business Bureau tracks charities that meet its highest standards for accountability. You can also call your state consumer protection office to find out if the charity is registered with the government. Beware of charities that use high-pressure tactics or make overly emotional appeals to convince you to give and be wary if someone calls and thanks you for a pledge you don`t remember making -- it may be a scam. Never respond to telephone or e-mail solicitations for money. They may be thieves attempting to steal your credit card information. Instead, contact the charity directly and make your donation by check or credit card so you have a record of the gift. If you believe you may be the victim of a donation scam, file a complaint with your local consumer protection office. I`m Terri Cullen.

12/14/05: "Paul Kangas' Stocks In The News"

PAUL KANGAS: Blue chip stock prices showed slow but steady growth this morning. That as the record trade gap was overshadowed by a drop in oil prices, a big order for Boeing aircraft and an upbeat outlook from Honeywell. At noon, the blue chip Dow was up 42 points. But the NASDAQ Index was off seven points, thanks to analyst downgrades on Apple Computer. While the tech sector remained lower, the blue chips continued to rise on growing confidence in the economy. The Dow industrial average closed up 59.79 points at 10,883.51. The NASDAQ Composite was down 2.41 ending at 2262.59. Standard & Poor`s 500 Index rose 5.31 to end at 1272.74. Over in the bond market, Treasuries were buoyed across the board by that growing trade gap and continued hope that the Fed`s tightening campaign is winding down. The 10-year note rose 16/32 to par and 9/32, putting the yield down to 4.46 percent.

Once again topping the active list on the big board on 41.8 million shares today, Pfizer (PFE) moving up $0.54, still in response to that 26 percent boost in the dividend announced earlier in the week.

Then EMC Corp (EMC) with a $0.09 gain.

General Electric (GE) up $0.30.

Honeywell Intl (HON) gaining $1.62. As I touched on, the company gave an upbeat outlook for next year, forecasting revenues would rise 9 percent to the range of $30 billion.

ConocoPhillips (COP), fifth in volume was up a dime.

Then a big gainer, a new issue, Suntech Power (STP), this is a Chinese solar energy company, 26.4 million American depository shares offered at 15. They opened at $20.35, the high $21.20, right where the stock closed.

Then Time Warner (TWX) down or up $0.10.

Lucent Technology (LU) a $0.01 loss.

Ford Motor (F) itself up $0.03 as I mentioned.

And Cendant (CD), tenth in volume, was up $0.18 a share.

Boeing Co (BA) up $0.86 on the close, traded as high as $71.96 on that $10 billion order from Australia`s Quantas Airlines for its 787 Dreamliner jets, nice move there.

Then we see Newmont Mining (NEM), the metals were very weak today, profit taking after big recent gains. New York February gold tumbled $14.60 an ounce down to $509.50. Copper was also weak.

Anteon International Corporation (ANT), this is in the defense information technology business and General Dynamics will acquire the firm for $50.50 a share in cash. That whole sector of defense information technology strong today.

Caci Intl (CAI), Mantech Intl (MANT) and SI Intl (GINT) all doing very well on the upside in response to the Aneon takeover.

Constellation Energy (CEG) up $4.83. The "New York Times" reported today FPL Group, Florida Power & Light is in advanced talks to acquire it for about $11 billion. FPL stock was up $0.13 on that news.

And then Nike Inc (NKE) up $3.52. Citigroup started covering the stock with a "buy" and a $104 a share price target.

Navistar International (NAV) down $2.11. The company postponed an analyst meeting because the external audit for fiscal 2005 is still in progress.

Then the construction materials firm Vulcan Materials (VMC) up $4.10. JPMorgan upgraded it from "neutral" to "over weight" and boosted its price target from $74 to $82 a share.

The Crane Co (CR) up $1.62. Bear Stearns upgraded it from "peer perform" to "out perform." Yesterday the company raised its outlook not only for this year, but next year as well.

Winnebago Industries (WGO), the RV maker, up $2.52. Despite lower first quarter earnings $0.44, down from $0.57 last year, but that was $0.02 above the Wall Street consensus.

Apple Computer (AAPL) topped the active list on NASDAQ. It closed down $2.97, traded as low as $70.27. Bear Stearns downgraded it from "out perform" to "peer perform" on a valuation basis. Bear Stearns downgraded it from "buy" to "neutral" for the same reason. The stock has risen 50 percent in the last six months.

Google (GOOG) up $1.47.

Intel (INTC) $0.09 drop.

$0.04 loss in Microsoft (MSFT).

Cisco Systems (CSCO) was up $0.19, fifth in volume.

Yahoo! (YHOO) up a dime.

Dell (DELL) a nickel loss.

Qualcomm (QCOM) up $0.39.

Sirius Satellite Radio (SIRI) lost a penny.

And Amgen (AMGN) closed down $0.68, but just after the close, the stock started to rise, rose over $2 a share on news it`s going to acquire Abgenix for $22.50 a share.

And Abgenix (ABGX) stock closed up $0.46 and then after the close soared over $7 to the area of $21.90 on that Amgen bid.

Sciclone Pharmaceuticals (SCLN) losing 40 percent of its value today. Late stage trials of the company`s hepatitis C drug failed to meet objectives.

Those are the stocks in the news tonight.
