exchange for investments. this is a very opaque world, those behind-the-scenes and that is an angle, in singapore and others that never -- stuart: a question you may be unable to answer. you are an individual investor, would you buy ali baba stock? $92 a share. >> i am a whimper. that is your reputation. >> is why i don't care about insider-trading, that is the bs crime, not a big deal. if you knew how to play this market, put your self in an s&p 500 funds, you know when janet yellen puts the brakes on and you get out. we will tell you, stuart will be here telling you, you might not -- you make enough money and
12:10 pm
that is what you do to go to the mutual-fund for muni bonds. stuart: i want to represent those of our viewers that want a piece of ali baba and are compared to buy it at $19.95 per share, they would buy it right now because it is the next google or the next amazon or whatever it is. they go straight up. google did go up. yahoo! is down 3%. yahoo! owns 25% of ali baba. it is down 3%. explain that to me. >> the nasdaq is down. yahoo! own good chunk of this i
12:11 pm
am out of it. what does yahoo! have? it was the purpose, part of the purpose is to take out monetize their investment. here is the thing. what does yahoo! have if they don't have ali baba for the future. it is kind of a lot of questions about this, lot of questions about where they go in terms of not competitive with google. >> the signal to hold on a second. we are on. ali baba all the time, here is the lineup for the rest of the hour. is seeking manuel, architect of obamacare, we are going to stray from yahoo! and ali baba, that guy is there, as each emanual says he hopes he dies at 75 years old. dr. siegel on that one at 12:25
12:12 pm
and then home depot, 65 million credit card numbers generally compromise over 5 months period. we have a hacker, why did home depot not act sooner? we are on it all. plus this. coming up, new ad from governor scott walker, why the unions are calling him out for it. brian kilmeade coming up and also -- brian has this. more proof regardless of the controversy will still watch the nfl. the latest poll numbers. and ali baba.

12:15 pm
stuart: this is the story of the day, the month, maybe the year, ali baba goes public, for $92.70. and look at that volume, 132 million shares traded. jack ma, the guy who runs the show, was worth $19 billion one minute, then he is worth $17 million the next. the money is moving today and this is a big story. look at yahoo! briefly, look at
12:16 pm
that chart. down it went to the moment ali baba started trading. look at the bug in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. you will see the ali baba stock quoted so you can keep up with that. occasionally we will switch gears and go to something completely different. france makes its first air strike against isis. joining us now congressman mike kaufman, a veteran himself and he says air strikes alone won't do the job. welcome to the program. sorry we got such a short time here because of ali baba day. if airstrikes won't do it do you want to use american power on the ground to go there and kill them? >> the principal question is are we not going to deploy any ground troops? when we talk full deployment of ground troops in terms of being the new element on the ground and doing heavy lifting we ought
12:17 pm
to use indigenous forces. stuart: sorry to interrupt. really clear here, you don't want american troops on the ground firing guns in danger. and these indigenous forces advisory, air and logistical support and in doing so we need some folks on the ground, and forward units and quite frankly they will be under fire and we have to respond. stuart: they are in combat. if they are forward deployed, tagging with a laser target for american air power to knock them out. that is a combat mission. you are ok with that, troops on the ground who are firing guns in danger and in combat. >> i don't want to see us be the conventional force on the ground, but if we are going to
12:18 pm
say no u.s.. on the ground with forward elements i think it will be a problem in terms of lack of effectiveness of air support, more collateral damage, more friendly fire and casualties and if we effectively deploying our air power we better have u.s. military personnel on the ground with visual on the target directing that support. stuart: that is a clear position and thank you for joining us. i am very sorry it is such a short time. it is ali baba day, what can i say? thank you. back to nicole petallides, do you have an answer on why yahoo! dropped so much when ali baba opened? nicole: i ask the same to the traders and they said jumping out of yahoo! going into ali baba death forget yahoo! has 20% stake in ali baba. yahoo! has been running nothing to this ipo. stocks on yesterday's close up
12:19 pm
10% this for the month of september so now people who were buying yahoo! so they did have a piece of ali baba could sell their stocks and the other thing is their stake of 22% will be reduced to 16%. not sure if that is actually today but yahoo! has 22% down 16% so those two reasons people may have jumped out. >> thank you very much. show me the big board because it seems to me ali baba sucks all the oxygen out of wall street, getting all the attention and all the money. dow industrials were up 40, 50, 60 points and pretty much stable at that point. ali baba right now at the price that it opened at this morning. the first rate and $92.70. not just where we are now but
12:20 pm
slightly below that, $92.60. and others say the thing is stabilized, it has for 20 minutes that this won't be a stable marketplace for the rest of the day. $92.40 as we speak. brian kilmeade is here. want to talk football, sponsors, not leaving the nfl and new numbers show fans are not leaving. 86% of fans say they will not change their viewing habits in light of the scandals. i am not surprised by this, are you? >> if you knuckleheads, a guy who seemed to be on the wrong side of the models of america from watching football? football is more than this generation of players of the past generation of players, the game belongs to america, the players are stewards until they retire because these guys go out and do horrible things to win and more children we are supposed to give up our weekends, our passion, not use our season tickets, makes total sense to me. at 3:00 they will address the
12:21 pm
problems which is interesting. roger goodell just called a press conference at which time no one knows what he will mention. some expect him to talk about mandatory domestic abuse education throughout the league and even child abuse education throughout the league, something proactive. those who say he will resign don't hold your breath. i don't think he should, i don't think he will. >> the nfl may have weathered the financial storm because the sponsors are talking with a loud voice, not taking their money off the table. may be the nfl has weathered the storm. i didn't know about this press conference. >> my sources said if you want to know why adrian peterson is not playing for the vikings this weekend and why they reversed course on monday changing to tuesday it is because -- anheuser-busch came out and said 49 words, a huge problem to handling this and that sent a message because it is
12:22 pm
$1.1 billion contract and that changed things. stuart: they speak, everybody listens but they don't move the money unless they are not listened to. that is the point. here is what else we are talking about today. seat emanual, the architect of obamacare says he doesn't want to live past 75 years old. we will explain that. dr. siegel is here. ali baba, $92.74 right now. ♪ [ bell ringing, applause ] five tech stocks with more than a 10%... change in after-market trading. ♪ all the tech stocks with a market cap... of at least 50 billion... are up on the day.

12:56 pm
stuart: there you have it. i think you won the debate but elon musk is addicted to tax breaks and this company would not be the company it is without them. >> it was founded in 2002 with elon musk own money. he said do you want to know how to make 100 million in the space industry? he cofounded paypal, 100 million of it trying to start up space x, but if you're looking to tax subsidies, look at the railroad industry, look at the airline industry or big oil, a lot of these companies would have a lot of trouble doing the business they do without public-private partnerships. ronald reagan did it, george bush in 2007 started the
12:57 pm
electric vehicle tax subsidies. stuart: why do i feel like i'm being beaten over the head by elon musk and backed into a corner? >> cannot believe the way she stated her argument and stated her case this is a knockout drag out. congratulations, i would like to hang out. stuart: we're out of time, but that was a good debate. more on alibaba next.
