Photo Finish In Women's 400M Sprint; Michael Phelps Talks Future Plans
HOWELL: At the Olympic Games it was an incredible photo finish in the 400-meter sprint on the women's side, a nail-biter between the Bahama's Shaunae Miller and American Allyson Felix. CNN's Coy Wire is live in Rio with exactly how the winner managed to cross that finish line and take the gold -- Coy.</s>COY WIRE, CNN SPORTS CORRESPONDENT: George, what a finish in that 400-meter final. Everyone in the stadium or watching on T.V. had no idea who had won. Shaunae Miller of the Bahamas had a huge lead but the defending world champ, Allyson Felix, dug deep. She would end up leaning in at the line but Shaunae Miller does a feet don't fail me now, diving across the line, and it worked. Gold by seven one- hundredths of a second. But with that silver, Allyson Felix earns her seventh all-time medal and surpasses the great Jackie Joyner-Kersee to become the most decorated American female track athlete ever. Guys, this just in. Simone Biles is human. She is, she really is. After three straight golds here in Rio, a bronze in the beam competition. She nearly fell off the beam and had to use her hands to catch herself. Judges score that as a fall, so bronze it is. She could still end up with gold in the final tonight -- on the floor final, that is. But congrats to young Laurie Hernandez, too, Biles 16-year-old teammate who finished with a silver in the beam event. All right, let's get an early start on the medal count, like Christine Romans' early start on your money. We've got Team USA, 75 overall. China's in second with 46, and Great Britain in third with 41. Now, guys, last night I got a chance to catch up with Michael Phelps and I had to ask him what's next for the GOAT, the greatest Olympian of all time.</s>MICHAEL PHELPS, 28 CAREER GOLD MEDALS: I think first, I get to go home for a couple of days and relax and just enjoy some sun and get to see the pups. I'm happy now and I think that's the biggest difference between now and 2012. You know, in 2012, I think I just wanted to be done. I wanted nothing to do with the sport anymore. And now I'm very happy, very pleased with the place that I'm in and I'm happy with how I finished my career.</s>WIRE: Guys, it was great to see Michael Phelps out and enjoying his 28 career Olympic medals. We'll also get to enjoy Usain Bolt today, a 200-meter heat that he'll be racing in. It's been a fortunate experience to be able to watch two of the greatest of all time in these games.</s>HOWELL: Coy, I saw that picture that you took with Phelps that you put out on Twitter. That's a picture you hold onto, man. It's very cool.</s>WIRE: Thanks, George, I appreciate. I had to keep that man covered from the rain.</s>ROMANS: I know. I tell you, it's a Coy Wire, my job does not suck day, you know? All right, thanks. Nice to see you, Coy. All right, let's get an early start on your money this morning. It's a trifecta for stocks -- record highs. Yes, folks, stocks have never been higher. The Dow, the Nasdaq, the S&P 500 blazing into unchartered territory, a synchronized gold medal for these three average. All three now posting strong gains for the year. The Nasdaq has had the most impressive rally, frankly, from its low back in February. It's up more than, I think, 20 percent from that low. This has been a classic broad-based rally. I want to show you the top performing sectors in the S&P 500. Telecom, 19 percent; utilities, 15 percent; energy, 14 percent; materials, 11 percent. So can anything stop this bull market? Some investors are growing nervous that prices are inflated. Remember, the last time these markets all hit highs together was in 1999. Remember what happened after that? A bubble burst. There is also political risk. Wall Street seems to be betting that Hillary Clinton will win the election. If the polls swing toward Trump stocks may swing as well, so there's always that. Right now, Dow futures slightly lower. Stock markets in Europe and Asia down a little bit, taking a step back from all those records. Oil down about six-tenths of one percent. Two health care headlines to tell you about this morning. Aetna is dropping Obama care coverage in 11 of the 15 states it services. Next year, it will only sell Affordable Care Act products in Delaware, Iowa, Nebraska, and Virginia. Aetna has lost some $430 million since the exchanges opened in January 2014 because they people who sign up, they found, are sicker and more costly than expected. And a new report this morning from Fidelity shows the average American will need $260,000 for health care costs when they retire -- the average American couple. It projects that cost will jump between four percent and six percent annually in future years. Something to think of. That's outside of savings in your 401(k). Those are health care costs in retirement for a couple -- a quarter of a million dollars, more than that.</s>HOWELL: When people hear that, though, does that make them feel like they can't do it or --</s>ROMANS: You know what? I'll tell you what, a lot of people see numbers like that and they just say I can't make the paycheck stretch as long as the month right now --</s>HOWELL: Right.</s>ROMANS: -- how am I supposed to save? It reminds people that health care is one of the fastest-growing costs in your retirement formula.</s>HOWELL: And nice reference to the Olympics there --</s>ROMANS: Yes.</s>HOWELL: -- in your financial report.
