adam: do you think that the worst is over for them? >> the back-to-school season has not been very good. these retailers have been putting out a lot of unenthusiastic statement. consumer confidence will improve. i think it will improve over time. businesses will be more willing to do some spending. if you get the confidence up, things like industrials will do good. i think it is where clients overall need to be.

adam: let me talk about a technical issue would get some people interested. many trading lower than they were a year ago. we do go up quite well on the s&p. >> usually, that is a good indicator. we do have a large percentage of those industry groups that are down and are down big, that usually says you will have a big move. even with only seven down year-to-year, we have had about 17 princes on that.

on average, the market moved up about 11%. 1850-1900 for the s&p 500. that is just another way to look at it. adam: it is always good to talk to you. thank you. >> gasoline the fine and the energy pits today. we have phil flynn in the pit of the cme. >> it was a big mess by a lot of analysts. gasoline imports were down. gasoline exports were up. we produce more this week than we did the week before.

tracy: when nyse teamed up with the ice earlier in the year officials at the nyse thought it was more of a merger than a takeover. they're finding out that is not case. fox business senior correspondent charlie gasparino has the latest on this rude aweakening. before we get to that, charlie,

talk about the bank of intern. >> i want to get his name right. maurice earnhardt. we'll get autopsy result tomorrow. 6:00 a.m. new york time. 8:00 a.m. london time. remember he is a london intern. here is the interesting thing. we all pulled all-nighters. this gentleman pulled, you know three all-nighters. i think what the autopsy will show was there anything extend waiting? there is rumors about him suffering from epilepsy. we at fox business network and fox news have not got that confirmed. the autopsy should come, should show some of this. fairly tragic situation. i will say this, you know, i know a lot of interns. we, you know, it is a rite of passage for inturns on wall street to work exdreamly late particularly investment banking with sales and trading. investment bankers stay all night. they cut the deals. they do all the work and get

paid but paid sometimes until 6:00 a.m. in the morning. >> right. >> there is this macho attitude who can pull as many all-nighters. we don't know why this gentleman died but he did. apparently some still has to get nailed down. first cut. three all-nighters in a row. apparently more than 70 hours. hearts out, condolences to the family. unfortunately this is a story we have to cover. one thing i will tell you what we're hearing from banks they are starting to look at their intern policies. do they push the kids too hard. that is what they're saying on background. they're not saying it publicly. bank of america is not coming out publicly. they have potential legal liability. it the nyse story is fascinating. the merger occurred in december. ice, a computer in atlanta took over the storied new york stock exchange. i interviewed neared neared, ceo of -- duncan neiderauer on the floor of the new york stock exchange when this happened. we were first to break this was not quite a merger but takeover

by ice. we did that the night before it was announced. they seemed like they were a pretty good team. i talked to duncan personally. he said he likes sprecher. the officials at the new york stock exchange are bracing for massive cuts from their side of the aisle. 3,000 people that make up management employees of the new york stock exchange are likely to get, likely to, there are people there, whether it will be significant job losses from that as part of this merger. the other interesting thing from what we understand, officials from what we understand are largely cut out of americaner discussions. give you my sources the can't tell you who. sources very close to the discussions, first-hand knowledge. most of the stuff, the post-merger discussions, how the company's going to look when the merger closes which i believe is in the fall is being handled by jeff sprecher and his team. my understand duncan is playing a role but largely advisory. the rubber meets the road in atlanta.

let me get this out. we should point out nyse officials believed that they were going to play a bigger role in these discussions. they have not, so far. and, we should point out that neiderauer sim self will stay with the company, stay with the company one year after it closes of the he will be president of the combined entity, ceo of the new york stock exchange. we should also point it that the new york stock exchange has about 3,000 employees. this is kind of interesting. it is, more than growing pains. i mean when you have a firm like the ice, right? it is computer firm. very lean and mean. some of the people i know on the board there. this is, they're bearing down on this and you know, the new york stock exchange has a global operation. which they are going to shrink and it is a rude awakening to the people at new york stock exchange. adam: could they be shrinking too far though? could they be cutting to the bone as opposed to get being efficiencies and eliminating duplicating positions? >> i think yes they could be. i think that will probably be the case that duncan will make along the way. kind of out of his control. he sold when it came down to it.

i think they have less than 1,000 people in atlanta. when computerized company, you know, the ice does options over a, over a computer network. when that buys the storied new york stock exchange which has this global, sort of presence and then getting to your point the new york stock exchange would say, listen, we are a marketing company and in many ways. we go out and get companies to list on our exchange. we market saying if you list here, you get our imprimatur. ring the opening and closing bell. it's a good thing. share hold like having stamp of approval. like compliance and due diligence on the company. that's what they will say. in order to keep getting companies to join the new york stock exchange we need a degree of infrastructure. that is where it will go. it is pretty interesting.

tracy: charlie gasparino, you called it a takeover from the beginning. adam: thank you, charlie. we'll check in with jonathan corpina on the floor of the new york stock exchange to see how we're doing. we're down 50 points. jonathan, do you see this turning around anytime soon? >> not just yet. this will be rest of august will be. there is not a lost information for investors to feel confident to get back in this market. we have comments coming out of washington today. expect what we've seen in the past, the statement will be held very close to the chest. we'll not get a lost information. everyone is waiting for when is this tapering going to occur. we'll not get the information today. next week we head into the end of the summer, last week of august. once again as we head into sent, i think that is when we see things pick up again. adam: earlier guest, jonathan, told us we could have the s&p close around 1100 for the year. do you think that is realistic? >> that is realistic. look where we are, where we've been and where we're going to go to. we still have a full month left in that quarter.

investors will feel confident in the market once we get past this tapering. adam: jonathan corpina. thank you very much. >> thank you, sir. >> okay, so keep the change. a man in buffalo, new york actually took this kind of literally. after rigging more than 75 parking meters and collecting nearly $210,000 worth of quarters, over eight years, oh, yeah, this is according to the fbi. mechanic james badarazzo and accomplice. adam: you were raising your hand. tracy: another italian, i'm saying, tampered with the meters. i can say that because i'm italian. took the quarters and back to the bank so tellers wouldn't get suspicious. i have a vending machine business. adam: that's the ticket. >> this happen happened after the new electronic meters were bringing in significantly more money. adam: how much more. that is how much more revenue going to the electronic. tracy: inspector clousseau, what

were broadly comfortable with the characterization of the data contingent outlet for asset purchase, bond purchases presented in the june post-meeting press conference by chairman bernanke but they debated how to move forward with tapering quote, saying a few members emphasized importance of being patient before deciding on any changes in bond purchases. a few others pointed to the contingent plan and suggested might soon be time to slow qe. on their forward guidance, the minutes say, quote, several participants were willing to contemplate lowering the unemployment threshold. let me pick up the rest of this language. if additional accomodations were to become necessary or if the committee wanted to adjust the mix of policy tools used to provide the appropriate level of accommodation. and also, they say, that a number of participants also remarked on the possible usefulness of providing additional information.

but as you remember, back at the end of july, they voted to make no changes in the pace of qe. $85 billion a month. they continued that, but they kept the language on when they might change short-term interest rates the same. ashley, tracy. ashley: interesting stuff. peter barnes, thank you. we'll kind of pick this apart as we go along. tracy: but you see the markets falling off. we'll go to nicole petallides on the floor of the exchange. i think the market is waiting to hear already, when is it going to happen? >> we're at session lows, just holding 14,900. session lows here, folks. down almost triple digits on the dow jones industrials. treasury bond ticked down as we get the fomc minutes. u.s. dollar rises, versus its rivals. there's a look the at dow jones industrials as we noted here at session lows and we have seen obviously a lot of selling. the vix, the fear index is up over 7%. looks like even has gained

momentum in the last few moments. the dollar, as i noted very strong. we are seeing our 6th straight session of selling on the dow jones industrials. we haven't seen this all year this year. it is worth noting that. also we got in some existing home sales numbers. those are good news there, up 6.5%. areas among hardest hit are telecom and utilities. they're very interest rate sensitive with high dividend yields. utilities index has been off 5%. telecom sector has been off 4%. but the groups have been under pressure here and certainly a lot of selling going on. back to you guys. tracy: some members of the fed saying be patient. doesn't look like the market is very patient. nicole petallides, thank you very much. ashley: one way or the other. let's take a look at the 10-year yield as we continue to break down what we heard from the fed with regard to taper and everything else. this is interesting we've seen a spike in the 10-year yield, here we are, up four basis points,

2.5%. joining us to break down the minutes is former fed economist, stephen olinner, at aei and. thank you both for being here. stephen, let me get the initial reaction what we heard from peter barnes through the fed minutes? >> i think this wasn't really very surprising. i think the fed is on track, absent really surprisingly bad data to start tapering at the next meeting in september. i think they're really on track to do that and september is more likely than december. although of course today's minutes didn't definitely say september would be the month. ashley: bob, let me get your reaction. we saw a quick selloff, a drop in the market perhaps stalled down 91 points now on the dow. what's your thoughts on what you heard? >> nothing surprising again. i think the, the fed minutes reflect what was going on in the conversations in, you know, last

month. and, i think the fed is going to be on target for reducing the asset purchases in sent and i think they're going to start it off with the treasurys. most likely i think they will start off with about 10 billion reduction in the asset purchases. there is really nothing there in the minutes to indicate that but i think everything that we've been seeing in the economic data to date really indicates that the fed is on target for reducing that are asset purchases. i think it is a prudent move. i think it is the right move. i think the market is growing to accept it and the market is going to actually respond positive, once it is initiated and once it continues. ashley: that's true, bob. here we are, a lot of people say this is already baked in. the moment you start talking about it again. here we are down off nearly 100 points on the dow. why this reaction? >> very quiet market. you can't take a lot from what is going on. people in this market since

beginning of this year, with expectation, even in june, when bernanke came back and sort of backtracked on his initial comments back in may, saying that, you know, asset purchases was going to be likely. he saw reaction to the market and then backtracked. may have thought, that you know, qe3 was going to be in the cards for an extended period of time. it is really a necessary move to reduce this. ashley: right. >> this started about a year ago interest rates weren't much lower than from where they were after qe was started, from once it was started. i think it's an appropriate move. ashley: okay. >> especially with bernanke in the future here. ashley: sieve fenn, let me bring you in. critical jobs report about all of this, september 6th. we'll get the september 18th decision by the fed when it is expected tapering some form or fashion will begin. , but, what if, stephen, we get

a lousy jobs report on september 6th. does that change the landscape a little? i think it could. depends how bad the report is. if the report is consistent with the type of job gains we've had the past several months. a number like 175,000 on payrolls and not moving very much i think they will start tapering in september but if they have a number like 100,000 or sizable downward revisions from the past several months with unemployment rate going up i think they might have a tough debate in the september meeting about whether it would be time to taper. ashley: what about the issue of inflation, steve? there is continued concern, yes, they believe the inflation rate will come up but it does impose risks, doesn't it? >> it does. the inflation rate is well below the 2% target. cpi is well below an year-to-date basis. the measure they actually target, which is the cpe index

is even lower than that i think they still believe that transitory factors have held down the, held down the inflation rate and it is going to move back to target. i think at this point, if everything still looks pretty good on the jobs front, think i they do taper in september even though the inflation rate is well below where they would like it to be in the long run. ashley: bob, how much of a concern is the rising interest rates? we're seeing 10-year jump a little bit now. of course that can have repercussions. what's your thought on the rising interest rates? >> you know, ashley, everybody knows the street overreacts to almost any kind of news that's out there. interest rates will continue to move up. they will find their own level. i think the level will be 3 1/2. it may go up a little higher than that and then it will retrace a little bit and probably retrace a little bit more than it should but i think you will probably find a level around 3.40. i think the street will be concerned what is the impact to companies with earnings going forward but i don't think it

will have much of an impact. i think the economy is improving, if we look at initial unemployment claims, non-farm payroll, look at manufacturing, look at housing everything is working in our advantage. companies are making money and once we get back to that normalized level investors will be back in the market and driving stock prices up. i think you will have a very good year for stocks this year. ashley: interesting. market is still down. dow down 104 points. thank you, we appreciate your comments. tracy: all right. let's turn to reaction in the commodity market now. as ashley mentioned, the dow fell 50 points when we heard the minutes. fox business contributor phil flynn in the futures pits of the cme. what happened, phil. >> traders don't like rising rate when it comes to oil. after qe all the hot money went to places like china and emerging markets where they consume a lot of oil! but not so much when rates go up in the u.s., the hot money buying all that oil goes to other places.

oil is pushing towards the lows of the day at 103.78. the low was 103.50. you're looking at some of the commodity currency, they're taking it in the chin. the australian dollar, a big commodity currency is getting smashed now. gold and silver down, raising rates bad for commodities. back to you. tracy: phil flynn, you're right. thank you, sir. >> thank you. tracy: interesting, right, ash? the fed is really reluctant to put anything on paper. ashley: they are. tracy: holding out. ashley: typical fed speak vagueness, however, as bob pavlick pointed out things are pointing in the right direction. the economy is gaining painfully slowly but i think we're looking unless the jobs report on september 6th is absolutely awful which could change things, it appears some sort of tapering could happen in september. tracy: vegas odds? ashley: two to one perhaps. we're tracking the market's every move in reaction to the fed minutes. a live update from the

new york stock exchange next. tracy: plus can hewlett-packard deliver new evidence it is turning things around? i don't know. august, august is not a very good month for them. we'll preview its after the bell results coming up. but first, phil mentioned oil, let's check on it one more time. down about a dollar a barrel. $104 a barrel right now. we'll check on the metals too, the dow is down 83 points. we'll be right back. this man is about to be the millionth customer. would you mind if i go ahead of you? instead we had someone go ahead of him and win fiy thousand dollars. congratulations you are our one millionth customer. nobody likes to miss out.

tracy: hey, welcome back. post-fed minutes, the dow actually climbing back. it is off about 50 points when we heard minutes originally. it is down about 70 points. s&p and nasdaq, also moving a little bit lower on the news as well. there they are. the s&p, down slightly now. both again climbing back, of course there is your 10-year up four basis points at 2.58%. it hit 2.88. ashley: that's right. tracy: at session highs? for more on the minutes, we talked to charles payne. you were listening. what did you think? lamo? >> lamo. still going through them, i

think reaction is always lamo. this is wall street whining. tracy: exactly. >> in the past i always told people exactly what the fed comes out with this stuff, don't worry about the rest of the day. after everyone digested had cooler heads, had a few beers, maybe better way to react to judge reaction. here's an interesting thing, they say, guys. they talk about the second half. they say, we'll pick up somewhat in the second half of gdp and strengthen further there after, in other words, 2014. the reason for it would be highly accommodative monetary policy. you can't say, we'll improve if you take away the first thing you cite as driver for improvement. they're assuming mortgage credit availability. we'll see. lending officers have said they're getting somewhat easier with respect to lending, a little. no one is getting significantly easier with how much they, the receding effect the of fiscal restraint.

whole thing supposed to happen. you have pent-up demand. that fed go on to talk about express concerns about higher household wealth not translating into greater consumer spending. market is up 9,000 points. house is worth more than four years ago. why aren't you in the mall. why aren't you using the credit card? it is confounding the fed. tracy: we have september jobs number coming. depend which way it goes. ashley: will give them time to pause. tracy: talk about a game-time decision, right. >> there are a couple of participants who say they may use lower unemployment threshold. they know why, they understand, if a million people leave the job market, number goes down, that is not authentic. that is not a good sign. that is a bad sign and being honest about themselves. i think the whole notion of tapering next month is goofy it will be based on the economy. if it is based on the fed, you know what? risks no longer matches the

reward. it doesn't work, tried this now. 3 trillion-dollar balancewe'll d girls. you're on your own. that is something the street would be afraid of. there are people on wall street only believe on the fed, the fed. for the economy overall, sooner out of this thing, the better. ashley: better. >> might hurt initially. the better. ashley: about time we stood on our own two legs. absolutely. tracy: charles payne, thank you. ashley: still quarter past the hour. check these markets. nicole petallides on the floor of the nyse. what are you hearing on the floor? >> traders watch the dollar carefully and we're watching which is jumping versus rivals. that is something worth noting. we saw the dow jones industrials fall to a level of 14,880. that was a loss of about 122 points. so that was, at the moment, just after those fed minutes were released were at session lows we've seen here in these last few minutes. we have since recovered some of

those losses. that is worth noting, the vix, fear index which shot up and pulled back but still has up arrow. on the dow though the market breadth has been across the board not only on the dow but across the board. market breadth is very weak, leaning toward negative side. dow jones industrials with a few names like wal-mart, bank of america. but majority of the names have held back, names like hewlett-packard and technology has been under pressure. nasdaq composite down 1/4 of 1:00%. back to you. ashley: thank you, nicole. gold off a little bit. nothing drastic but moving a little lower after the fed minutes. tracy: think they were looking for more. coming up hewlett-packard shares have more than doubled from their fifth low so will today's results give the long struggling, emphasis, long-struggling tech giant another boost? we'll have a preview next. ashley: you're saying it is long-struggling. we'll look at the u.s. dollar. the dollar is strengthening a

bit on back of the fed minutes. most of the currencies moving lower against the dollar except for the british pound. we'll be right back.

>> 22 minutes past the hour, i'm lauren green with your fox news minute. syrian opposition groups say government forces killed more than 1,000 people in a chemical weapons attack in damascus. the accusations coming three days after a team of u.n. weapons inspectors arrived in the country to investigate prior claims that the assad regime used chemical weapons against its own people. u.s. army soldier bradley manning sentenced to 35 years in prison for his role in the wikileaks scandal. manning will also be dishonorably discharged from the military. he will have to forfeit some of his pay and have his rank reduced. national interagency fire send says wildfire in the u.s. could cost as much as one billion dollars this year. beaver creek fire in sun valley, idaho region has cost more than $1 billion to fight. that is the stories on the fox business network. back to tracy. >> lauren, thank you very much. hewlett-packard out after the bell with their earnings and the stock is up almost 80% this year

which is crazy, right? will today's results be enough to keep investors happy? jason nolan, senior research analyst at baird joins us with the latest. based on all the trouble this company has, to see that the stock is up 80% is kind of confounding, isn't it? >> it was off so much, last year. tracy: yeah,. >> it was a bounce-back from where we were and trading six, seven times earnings. not up substantially. certainly not expensive at these levels. tracy: they offered a quarterly dividend. i suppose that makes the stock attractive. really all about the service division, right? so if, because pc sales are way off. what do you do? do you buy this thing here? >> we're not buyers. we have low expectations on the quarter and fundamentally going forward, they obviously have a lot of secular and pricing pressure in the pc and printer division, especially, pcs. especially consumer pcs.

about half revenue and half operating profit. services is an area that has been challenged. they have some opportunity there and new niche activities around cloud and big data. some of legacy servers, headcount, intensive businesses are under pressure. enterprise group. it is the largest profit contributor to hp. there is lot of expectations there around server storage and networking. >> really there is no good news story here, other than the dividend. does dell going private help them at all? >> there is really, there's not, there is rumor that the head of the enterprise group is going to be reassigned this evening also. there is not a lot of positive from a top-line growth standpoint. there is cost cutting, cost cutting and a dividend and new initiatives. they're just small. of dell going private, could, could impact pricing in the industry. dell has been more price aggressive of late. lynn novo has also. we expect lenovo to stay

aggressive as private company. we'll see what happens. dell could arguably act more strategically. not worry about quarttory quarter financial performance of the company. but i don't know it changes things dramatically. i expect dell to be price aggressive in the pc market. tracy: all things digital reported reassignment as you reported. ceo meg whitman has challenges. 8 billion-dollar write-down for eps. august has not been the best month for the company. you're seeing going into earnings. you're not loving it and buying it into. so what happens to hp? >> well, there's a number about huge changes going on across the i.t. landscape. landmark changes. cloud computing. big data. security is a huge theme. hp needs to be more efficient in the commodity divisions like pc and print. they need to invest strategically in some new growth markets. they have performed poorly there in the past. investments like autonomy and eds have not panned out.

they haven't innovated internally as much as they would have liked. this is really key give all the changes. really big company. 300,000 plus employees. $100 billion in revenue. they need to be more efficient in commodity divisions. invest intelligently and into growth market. tracy: can the print and ink cartridge business carry this company? that is openly thing they have going for them. talk about their cloud computing and what they're doing with amazon? >> none of those things go away like print and pc. they're still profitable. they will not die overnight. there is pressure especially in consumer. cloud computing hp has a new product called moon shot they will try to sell to large cloud computing companies like amazon. they will try to compete with people like amazon. we don't think hp can do both of those things at scale. hp and other large, large cap

tech companies need to decide, do they want to supply to the cloud or do they want to compete with the cloud? that is still not clear where hp intends to go there at scale in the long run. tracy: jason nolan, talk about doom and gloom from baird. appreciate your insight. clearly he is not suggesting you buy the stock into earnings. thank you, sir. >> thank you. tracy: don't miss fox business's full coverage of hp's earnings after the bell, about two hours from now. boy, not good news, hey? ashley: help wanted but with a catch. many companies are hiring but the jobs might not be so attractive. we'll have details next. tracy: still ahead, head turning numbers on july home sales. we'll look what's behind the surge and whether it could last. fed taper talkers want to know about thats that's for sure. let's look at some of today's winners and losers on the s&p 500 as we head out to break. nicole is talking about lowe's earlier, up 3.6%. we'll be right back.

created. no surprise why the u.s. economy is flatlining at 1.5%. people cannot spend. it makes perfect sense. what we are also seeing is a san francisco federal reserve is also making note of this trend. we also have this memo from forever 21, this big retailer. this is a trend that we solved end up last year. now it is accelerating. ashley: you have people working two part-time jobs, but getting

no benefits. the unemployment structure is changing in this country dramatically. the question is, will it ever change? >> it continues the pace. time and again, i am so struck by what the federal reserve says. the u.s. jobless rate last year would have been lower. san francisco fed is saying d.c. policy, d.c. uncertainty. wow. you know what that is, that is 2 million jobs. tracy: the uncertainty, i think you hit the nail on the head.
