On the first anniversary of the World Health Organization declaring the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic, Carl Quintanilla, David Faber and Mike Santoli took an in-depth look at another record day for the Dow, plus a rally for the Nasdaq as yields stabilize one day after the House passed the $1.9-trillion COVID relief package -- and Pfizer and BioNTech said data from Israel suggests that their COVID-19 vaccine is 94% effective in preventing asymptomatic infections. The anchors reacted to what Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla told CNBC about the importance of getting the first vaccine available. They also discussed Dr. Anthony Fauci's recollection of the first time he received groundbreaking news about Pfizer's vaccine "in his own words." Verizon CEO Hans Vestberg also joined the program the morning after his company's investor meeting to discuss 5G, the streaming landscape and why Verizon spent $53-billion on C-Band spectrum. Also in focus: Roblox's second day of trading on Wall Street and what's pressuring shares of General Electric.
