companies like boeing mcdonnell and so many others in the dow jones industrial average. that is driving the action with the dow down 211 points. that will do for "the opening bell". i will see you tomorrow same place, same time. "varney and company" begins right now. stuart: this is a very big day. hillary is going to speak stocks big sell-off, apple after the what is revealed and gas is down again. there's a lot at stake today. hillary clinton will address the e-mail and fund-raising scandals, she will be there this afternoon or most importantly she will take questions. her and declared run for the white house is threatened. huge stock sell-off. chaos in currency and jpmorgan says the wall street rally is getting tired, down goes the dow. the morning after the apple watch launch, a lot of skepticism but would you bet

against apple? we saved the best alaskan gas getting just a little cheaper again. good friend. "varney and company" is about to begin. ♪ >> what difference at this point does it make? stuart: that sound bite from hillary clinton is bound to be repeated so long as she has the:00 this in mind and so will her statements on the e-mail scandal machine will be making a couple of hours. she is also going to answer questions. we have a lot more on that coming up but you got to look at this. a very significant saw on wall street. the dow down 213 points. jpmorgan and city say europe will make you more money than the u.s. and another problem too would be the almighty dollar. soaring. that is tough on america's

multinationals down they go. the dow is off over 1%. on the flip side impossible turning point for the price of gasoline. national average for a gallon of regular went down half a penny to 244 overnight. gas has fallen two straight days. we won't call that a streak but it is a nice trend. we are down less than a penny in those two days but the trend is down and we love that. hillary clinton will address let e-mail scandal today. she will answer questions. we are also learning that all five democrats on the benghazi select committee asked john kerry to prioritize the release and review of hillary's e-mails. digital politics editor is with us. do you think that what she says today is going to be make or break for a candidacy or am i going too far? >> it certainly could be break if she comes out with something, come amy, some preposterous

statement she could do dire damage to her ambition. most likely what she is going to do is get out there, say some stuff try to buy a little time so she can get a campaign closer to launch which we are now expecting at the beginning of april and to punt the bits. should we expect chuck todd at nbc reporting and others intimating she will talk about how secure her home bruce server was and one of her rhetorical focuses is on the fact that it sounds kitschy, you have a home brew server listed in your home in chapel, new york but it is okay because it was really secure. stuart: do you think a punt is good enough? >> doesn't have a lot of choice because remember what happened. it was 40 days ago, five weeks ago that we had thought perhaps hillary clinton would wait until july to launch a campaign and she was going to run in this crystalline sphere orbiting the earth far out of reach from the

detritus of regular human politics and the very special place and wait as long as she wanted for her coronation. that has crashed to earth and now she's in the urgent business of going out to do reporter's run to clean this up a little bit. this is hillary clinton's big coming to earth moment. stuart: it will be very tough because the obvious answer to your rhetorical question is why doesn't she just tell us why she did this? why does she have a personal e-mail? why does she have her own server? why did you do this? she won't. >> you know why the democrats are focused on the release of those 55,000 not e-mails printed pages of e-mails for but this's sake they're focused on those because they have already been vetted and approved by clinton's campaign, release, ready for launch. what republicans and other people are interested in is what are the e-mails he didn't turnover and was on those servers. stuart: the new poll from the wall street journal nbc says 51%

of -- view hillary as a return to the past. that is not a good polling number when she is mired in scandal again, is it? >> no. the problem for hillary clinton has been when people said the clintons's baggage they thought about her husband's could billows and laughed about it. now they are being reminded of things like the alleged sale of pardons the white house/china, travels to the gate and those other things that remind people the clintons bring with them all of this scandal baggage not just what bill clinton did with monica lewinsky it is the money the abuse of power and the secrecy that made people uncomfortable for so long. stuart: are there any other democrats beginning to emerge as hillary runs into trouble? we know about elizabeth warren and whether she has emerged as a candidate or not is a good story. martin o'malley, former governor of maryland, joe biden, anybody else? >> there are a couple others who

are too ideological, too far and ideological poll jim webb too far to the right, bernie sanders too far to the left but the menu should be watching, joe biden. watch the vice president of the united states. he has had a hankering to take on hillary clinton they fought inside the administration and now would be the time if he wanted to because he has the name id air force two and the obama legacy project is a of a week, is on. let's do this thing. stuart: ten seconds left. could joe biden be the next president of the united states? >> anything is possible. are we out of time yet? stuart: sorry chris. i am sure you will be back soon. thank you for being with us today. check the share price of apple. they did youed watch. and the ipad, skeptics are out

in force cheryl casone is with me. do you think we should beat betting against apple? >> there is a good case to be betting against it. the stakes are big for tim cook and what the buzz was. we can be on stage and debuted this thing and if nobody buys it you can bet against them. stuart: make your call. i you going to buy this thing? >> start with the fashion industry the supermodels on stage yesterday used it for fitness. there are plenty of fitness trackers out there already that are not doing so well. paris fashion week has been going on. they gave her an advance look but the you know what their response was? it is co-pay. the runway shows says this is

technology not an accessory unless you get kim kardashian wearing that what you won't sell it to the fashion industry or -- stuart: when you discounted it as a fashion item. cheryl: let's talk technology two thirds of americans will not pay using a mobile device, they are afraid of security risks, how many credit cards have been stolen last few years particularly this year. they are saying i don't trust apple pay or mobile technology in general. that is another negative because apple pay is a big thing you hold your watch up and -- stuart: the big story is is it a brand new platform for apple to lodge another run-up in its stock price? cheryl: i have done this before there cannibalizing on other items. the question is the iphone to use the watch you already have the iphone, spend another $400 on that. there is one positive and it is

for travel. there is great for travel, american airlines, they are going to have a watch as your hotel key so for the travel industry they are excited about it but you really need to people to use this as part of your life. it is tough to make that argument. stuart: an overall down market and apple is down $2 a share. not exactly judgment on the watch. cheryl: if i had thought that stock six months ago, great. stuart: please check this out. i have a tractor trailer it flipped over on i-95 in maryland. if you know the eastern seaboard of the united states you know that road is the principal north/south hobbit for these united states, 10 to 15 miles outside washington i-95 southbound shutdown. part of the northbound lane shutdown as well. the trucks carrying bio diesel fuel, clearly this is going to

help. national security analyst kay t. mcfarland just returned from cairo. i am told by egyptian living in america that they believe president obama is on the side of the muslim brotherhood and not cc. what are they saying in egypt? >> i met with the grand imam, the equivalent of the archbishop of canterbury, one of the first to meet with him in recent times, i met with the coptic christian pope and they said the same thing, they are on the front lines, they are fighting in libya, they are fighting in the sinai but also within their religion. the grand imam went to mecca and said to the religious leaders of the muslim world we must reform. we must call out this radical version of our religion which endorses terrorism and we must reeducate, we must have a focus on education in our schools. at the same time the president is meeting with the muslim brotherhood.

the muslim brotherhood is now saying the same. stuart: egypt is doing and saying what we would expect and want egypt to do and say so the logical question is why isn't president obama supporting what they're doing and saying? >> this is what i don't understand list since september 11th we said where are the moderate muslim? wyatt and not condemning terrorism? why are they not condemning extremism? they are. they are now doing it and yet we seem to have an administration that is not listening or endorsing. stuart: what is the reason? >> i won't explained the what the administration, from the beginning they have been supportive of the muslim brotherhood. when i was in egypt and met with a number of people mid level people, ministry of defense and others, the muslim brotherhood was about to take over and turn our country into iran. >> we are helping the egyptian. we give them $250 million in economic assistance.

republicans are the ones that want to get rid of that. that is on there chopping block so we are giving them money. do they want help or just our money? >> they want military equipment. i met with the ministry of defense and asked the president and the administration said they are developing this military equipment for the egyptians. i talked to the general in charge and said we are not getting in or we are getting apache helicopters, they are sitting on a runway. and they are fighting. stuart: it is more than military hardware. it is fleecing political support. president obama why is he not saying you are doing exactly the right thing? going to the christian churchs calling for reform within islam you are doing what we want you to do, why don't we support him? >> it is a bigger problem than this. as egypt goes so goes the region. if they get it right we get it right. >> we got to tread carefully. look what happened in pakistan.

no one wants to see that repeated again when it comes to egypt. are they really our friends. >> i think they are. stuart: how can we doubt that he is a friend? did he not go to a church and state -- >> christmas eve. >> he went to a church in a muslim society, an extraordinary thing to do, isn't it? >> i go back -- >> actually called for a reform of islam from the inside. >> we have been burned before by this region in particular, with these countries. this has happened before. stuart: you deal with that. thanks very much everybody. red light cameras. have you ever met someone who was for them? chicago is getting rid of some of theirs. why not get rid of the mall? live report from chicago. taylor swift, a pop icon taking out an insurance policy on her legs. how much do you think they are worth? we will give you the magic number in a moment.

the state department server is the one that gave up the wiki leaks by some hacking that we do not understand. that is my answer on those three fax. as to whether that is good defense or not stuart, i leave that up to you and others. stuart: we have had a former secret service agent that has worked at very high levels of government that has worked on that server in mrs. clinton's house. here is what he had to say. roll the tape. >> the do agree of security. information on private correspondence. anybody could have been looking at this thing. we know for a fact that the person obtaining this server

could not have been a state employee. stuart: he is saying that to fixed that server who did the work on that server did not have security clearance. that server is open to hacking from just about anybody. >> that is a reasonable question. my answer is, what would he say about the state department server that was completely hacked into by wiki leaks? it is all a question that should be asked on any server. government or private. we have to wait to see what kind of security measures -- stuart: i only have 20 seconds left. we do appreciate you coming on the show. why did she do this?
