" See you third day to yet. I'm Tracy Johnke from MarketWatch -- comment this is the podcast money markets and more for Tuesday February 5. You'll hear the words super on average at least once per minutes on this day probably more. And maybe a bit of an exaggeration but not by much consider that it's super duper Tuesday. Then much anticipated date for the presidential candidates to sign. -- people going out to vote today help your voting. And New York is celebrating its Super Bowl champs with a ticker tape parade. So according to the Super Bowl predictor the New York Giants win on Sunday guarantees an up here for Wall Street right."

" Let them skeptical of that I think they'll make up some lost ground but I think you're probably all but on balance by the end of the year."

" Michael Metz of Oppenheimer and company says we may have already seen the best Wall Street has to offer this year in his name and use the word super."

" I think we've seen in the eyes of the year we haven't quite seen the lows -- live we don't have big downside here but I think it's going to be a trading range market in two O nine and so this really question of which stocks -- which sectors rather than the averages."

" Fox certainly had a super Sunday and a network and its TV stations hauled in a quarter of a billion dollars. And looks like Super Bowl 42 was the most watched ever. In -- in more than 97 and a half million viewers. And that's according to Nielsen Media Research Fox's owner News Corp also says it's not feeling any pain from the Hollywood writers strike. In fact the fox networks profits doubled during the last quarter they'll see Tuesday if the Walt Disney company is telling different story when it releases its earnings for the last quarter. They also brings a look at how the services sector of the economy is holding up its from the institute for supply management. This spring United Airlines is going to start charging many travelers 25 bucks for the privilege of checking a second bank. You're probably safe if -- a member of one of United's frequent flyer or premium passenger programs this charges for those of us. Who hunt for the cheapest fares possible."

" They're the first of the main six carriers to do it basically and not going to be. The last to be airlines are looking for every possible revenue source that camp along with cutting costs."

" Airline analyst Terry trip -- of traveler travel dot com says the baggage fees serves as both the source of revenue. It costs controller."

" The fewer bags of -- fuel. It takes to prevent -- to takeoff and fly and the last number of employees to take fewer number of employees it takes to unload unload the baggage."

" Traveler suspects that -- and have new fees this year from the united northwest delta and others."

" We -- different sides of charging for soda. On board may be a dollar of forest soda with two days it's complementary and just about all airlines."

" But will the idea fly with the economy class traveler. -- used to getting that ginger ale for a free. American Airlines try to add on some American eagle flights a couple of years ago but after getting complaints they abandoned the idea."

" At that time oil was about 65 dollars a barrel today it's 95 to a hundred a barrel. If somebody's gonna try it again and keep it."

" By the way Terry likes to joke that at some point in the future the airlines will charge us per pants. I'm talking about passenger weighing in -- second. Now if any airline people are listening remember it's -- choke people not a suggestion don't do way it's bad. Bad airline mechanic about in the large among -- not about to hand. Reminds me of Wall Street is getting pretty good at making lemons out of lemonade. Taking a bad news currents and trying to figure out it's how to make money out of it -- where the smart money is going next because of events. Here's an example Morgan Stanley says the flu season here in the US may be reaching epidemic levels in some parts of the country. It's looking at CDC numbers on flu activity last month. Collectively isn't nice way to put it by the way makes the whole things sound so clean almost staff. Anyway Morgan Stanley says this kind of flu activity can boost earnings sent pharmacies drug wholesalers and hospitals. So I might think that if you're one of those news and forced to keep the -- chuck bucket handy and have some money. To play anyway. And that's it for this edition of money markets and more please do send me a line time which I think. At am am am podcast at Yahoo! dot time. I'm Tracy -- thanks for listening"
