8:02 pm
531 points. that's a decline of 3.1%, although if you have diversified investments, they look more like the s&p 500 index, versus the do you 30, and they fell more. 3.2 percint. the s&p index is down 5.8% for the like. there's years where the market ends ends up 5.8% up or down. to have it happen in a week is dramatic. the nasdaq has been moving more. 3.6% lower today, 6.8 for the week. let me take it out further, do you is down 10% from its all-time intraday high, set on may 19th of this year. decline of 10% is the definition of a correction, a bear market is when a market drops by 20%. the do you fell more than 1,000 points this week. i tend to talk in personnels, because points have different
8:03 pm
value depending on how much the dow is up. that's a loss of 5.8%, like the s&p 500. now, there are three big reasons for this. we have been talking about china, devaluing its currency, in response to a slowdown in the economy. that has the world worried, that china is slowing down. it's been driving, a big drop on the world economy. the fed has been sending mixed signals about raising interest rates. that has people worried. and oil price, the price of crude oil in america dropping below $40 for a moment. that has people worried. all of these have signals of slowing economies around the world, feeding off of each other. that is what is happening right now. we are keeping a close eye on this. the idea that the do you closed at the lowest point in the day suggests it will expend to
8:04 pm
monday. >> ed is the wealth manager at chat wood investments, and is in dallas tonight. i understand you don't think this is about china, tell us why? >> ali does a great job with basically everything he said. there's one point he left out, about earnings, and stocks move 6-9 months i head of when earnings and economic data is announced. what is happening is they have moved up. we are seeing the earnings retracting the forecast. that is happening. some of it is china, the world, europe, japan, singapore. the whole world is slow, the earnings will not be there to support the stock prices. we have a lot of selling. >> where is it headed? >> it's going lower. >> you know, you look at some of these things, you look at what is really happening, there's a technical analysis, and not to get wonky, but you have programs - we have 400-500
8:05 pm
points on the downside. monday is not a pretty opening unless something happens over the weekend. >> at the same time oil prices are at the lowest level in years and years. that means a lot of things will not cost as much as they have before. does that help consumers when it comes to prices? >> it will at some point, but what it's really saying is that the world has slipped so much that they are forecasting demand to not be there. therefore, that hurts earnings, i love seeing oil prices lower, and that should help businesses, at some point that will help some industries, but the cloud of the slow world economy is so great and intoxicating in terms of being a negative for business, you'll continue to see negative numbers out of every market. germany is a problem as well. in europe, germany was the good engine in that world economy - or european economy. that is not doing well either.
8:06 pm
at some point things will change. it's not a normal 10% correction. >> plenty of people have 401ks, but some are not into stock at all. how will this affect the average american? >> depends if they decide to shorten investment. if you are an investor, and have more than five years to invest, and you don't need the money, you stay in equities, turn the television off and go about your business. if you need the money, you should have 12-18 months worth of money set side. we'll have a rough market for a while. in the long run, you are better off being in equities. you'll be scared, but live through it. in the long run, you'll be better off being in the equities. >> you are worried about a drop on monday? >> it will happen. take my word for it. >> good to see you two americans hailed as

8:33 pm
happen again and find the person that did this heinous crime. >> by eliminate ght the person or finding the person that did this, it doesn't eliminate violence in community. >> something like this doesn't happen on a regular basis in ferguson, or st. louis. we have only had 30 or so murders. in the city, not far from us, they are on track to do more than 120 this year. it's not that this happens on a regular basis, it's a tragic situation that shouldn't have occurred. >> so what does this killing represent as far as the challenges and the problems that exist in ferguson? >> it represents the situation that creates a lack of hope for a community. if one can't graduate from high school at 18 and go on and live a full life, and grow past nine
8:34 pm
while doing homework, it provides an opportunity for people to lose hope, and that's not what we need. so at this time, we need to come together, and haven't seen the things that we need to see happen over the past year. this is the second wake-up call that we have to push us in the direction of doing more. >> representative - what would you like to happen? >> we need to go back to the drawing board, and look at things from birth through graduation. we don't give individuals a quality education, we don't protect them as as well. we don't have the community fully invested. some of the leaders are not fully invested. we need to come back to the table. the events last year were a wake up call, we need people to wake up. >> the shooting of michael brown, and the shooting of this girl are different. in your opinion, are they connected? >> they are both connected in
8:35 pm
the sense that you can do everything that you are supposed to do. but if the policing community, if the leadership in the community, if the community is not together, we can't stop things like this happening. we can't present a future to anyone, if we still have either of these situations taking place. >> given everything that happened in ferguson in the last year, and a shooting on the anniversary of michael brown's death, then this, i mean, how is the community coping with all of this? >> it's pretty much like every day life for any minority. we do the best we can, getting by. i don't want to live in a community where we are just getting by. that's again as we come back to the table, making minorities fully participating members, and give all the support they need that they haven't gotten from the state, country and city. >> good to have you in the program again.

8:38 pm
gentrification is happening here. it has always been in. here in brazil, african brazilians are living in a terrifying situation. i'm inspired to be a journalist, so compare the struggle. right now we are in kabula, at a site where 13 young black men were massacred during the carnival. the police lined them up against the wall and shot them. in el salvador, no one talks about the police, we don't deal with the police. everyone is afraid of police. they can kill you. they come to the marches and take pictures of the people. i'm like we are coming for you. police have military, and they come through in tanks. this kind of violence is still common. it is normal.
8:39 pm
