9:00 am
dagen: russia is pumping oil at a post soviet high. it shows it needs the money. maria: we've got a big lines, we'll talk about alliance chief and former fed chairman ben bernanke. "varney & company" is next, stuart, have a good show. over to you. stuart: thank you, we'll take it. it looks biblical and now westbounding -- we can see what a foot or more of rain would do. sustained rain in charleston south carolina. am some of the rivers have to crest and it's not over. more on that in a moment. russia intensifies bombing and they don't worry about civilians. in the polls, trump's lead in
9:01 am
new hampshire narrows and the outside he is lead the politicians. in democrats, hillary leads in iowa and bernie sanders in new hampshire. "saturday night live" pushes the likeable hillary. >> donald trump, the one that's like, you're all losers? ♪ >> we are going to start with the historic flooding in the care liolina carolinas. governor nikki haley called it a thousand year flood. ashley we'll watch dramatic video, but tell us, is it over? we've got rivers rising for technically two more days although the rain spigot will
9:02 am
be turned off finally in the next few days. central south carolina, columbia the capital hard hit to charleston and as you said a one in a thousand year flood, the perfect storm, i hate to use that analogy because it's overused, but it really was in this case. stuart: i wonder if we're going to keep seeing that flood water rushing. ashley: absolutely. it's a cumulative thing. 23 inches. stuart: 23 inches. ashley: yes. stuart: good heavens, central south carolina. stuart: biblical. and ashley, more on that. look at the dow futures, we'll be up triple digits you don't get a sense -- if you follow the market, and you get the sense that people are out there, buy, buy, the market is going up. you don't feel that. market watcher keith fitz-gerald says the system
9:03 am
will fail and we can prevent another crisis. you're pouring cold water like a lot of people, all over this monday morning rally. >> i hate to do it. you know me, we've worked together for years. i'm an optimist at heart and believe the glass is half full. but right now it's time to be cautious and confine your investigators only to the best companies. the politicians have no idea what they're doing and fed lost control a long time ago. there's a shakeout coming, unfortunately. stuart: would you agree with me, look, on this program for a couple of weeks, long there's been a single analyst who said buy that market, buy it now, because we're going to 18, 19, 20,000 dow industrials. nobody has said that to my knowledge? >> no, i'm not aware of anybody making that call either. stuart: you're on the side that says, watch out, bad news is coming, can we sum it up with that? >> well, yes, we can. but be cautious, among other things. don't do anything rash.
9:04 am
that's the message here, don't do anything rash even if there's bahhed news. stuart: i can't see anything wrong with going for the high flyers and into the dividend stocks. >> absolutely, i can, that's the thing i get excited about and pt-- optimistic about. absolutely. stuart: and we're back when the market opens in 24 minutes' time. see you shortly. new polls, trump still in the lead, but now he's got company and his lead is narrowing. start with iowa. what you're seeing is trump 24, ka carson 19, fiorina 8 and marco rubio. not pictured bobby jindal and ted cruz, also at 6%. and trump has come down a little bit and lead has narrowed. how about new hampshire, trump 21%, fiorina, 16%, that lead narrowing in iowa bush 11, rubio 10, carson 10. and fiorina the second place spot, 16%.
9:05 am
the last time that poll, that particular poll was taken she had 6%. she has come right up there. and mary kissel, i've got to say now on the republican side it now looks much more like a real race. >> it definitely is a race and it's still very fluid, stuart. i think it's easy to look at these polls and say, well, donald trump, the lead is narrowing, on his way down and fiorina is on the way up. voters are still learning what the candidates are about. stuart: hold on a second, i was going to say the top five are emerging on the republican side and pulling away, that's the race. >> stuart, you have to be careful making statements like that because guys like jeb bush, guys like ted cruz, they have a lot of money. the super pacs are going to allow them to stay in the race longer, going to allow them to explain their policies to voters so you just can't say that they're out of it. one piece of good news, everybody is talking about tax reform, everybody is talking about economic growth, that's the best news on the republican side.
9:06 am
stuart: across the board on the republican side all of them, growth. >> if you look at the tax plan, it looks like jeb bush's tax plan like he kind of cribbed it from jeb bush. stuart: they're talking tax rate cutsmen. >> with a 2% policy you have to cut taxes to grow. stuart: we've all been saying that, they've been listening to us. i admit, self-flattery. russia, intensified attacks in syria and british prime minister david cameron joins the chorus, hey, moscow, change course. and joining us walid phares, the times. there are plans for thousands of arab fighters to join the kurds in the fight against isis. that's a ground war. is it going to happen, do you think? >> depends who are the arab fighters. if we're talking about militia
9:07 am
men, that's already happening on the ground. the only force that can change greater in the ground is if the gulf would send regular units and egypt would send regular units. but saudi arabia, yemen and egypt busy in libya, so that's not going to happen very soon. stuart: do you think that we could now see one front going after isis, that's our coalition, and another front, the russians going after the anti-assad forces? can you see that happening? >> it is happening. we are overlapping. we are conducting air strikes against isis and other al qaeda-linked groups and so is russia doing. the difference is, russia is doing this to protect the assad regime and maybe to extend the assad regime reach and also to build a territorial bridge through iraq to iran.
9:08 am
russia has a much wider agenda than isis. stuart: it's hard to see how we're winning. the coalition that america supposedly assembled, it's hard to see that winning, coming out on top. it seems like putin has won. >> i think he's now in the lead. it's like a race. we are losing ground, we are losing ground with eric iraqis who are shifting toward iran. the russians are in a war in baghdad. and number one, they're frustrated that we did the deal with iran. number two, the russians are in syria and may be head today link it economically to recover some of oil that isis wants to take back. one fallout, i think, will be even more refugees forced out of that whole north african area and making their way to europe, am i right? >> very important strategic conclusion. thank you for mentioning it. i was yus coming back from the european parliament conference in copenhagen yesterday and
9:09 am
that was the most important point. if no solution is found and if the russian advance is going to be serious, there will be not uns had-- hundreds of thousands, there will be millions, through turkey, the balkans and mediterranean. it's catastrophic in nature. stuart: in your opinion, one minute left, what should america do and president obama do right now? >> well, change course, change course. he has been doing in a direction, partnering with the iranians and the muslim brotherhood. he needs now to work on the arab coalition and help them, work with the kurds for civil society and firm with the russians, telling them where they should go and where they should not be going. is there any engineering in the white house in that direction? i don't know. stuart: okay. walid phares, thank you for joining us on this day. >> thank you. stuart: a cargo ship with 28 american citizens on board is missing at sea. the u.s. coast guard says it spotted a 225 square mile
9:10 am
debris field. they've seen styrofoam shipping containers. it's believed to have encountered severe weather. >> they found a large aisle sheen and life jackets, things that don't look good for ship at all. we'll get an update at 10 a.m. from the coast guard. this went missing in the hurricane of joaquin. at the time had wind of 130 miles per hour. stuart: can you imagine being in a ship, on a large ship. >> in the 1970's era ship. the question we should be asking, why are there so many old and decrepit ships out there. what are the barriers to competition in the shipping industry that are putting this stuff out on the ocean. ashley: can't say this didn't see this coming. because charting of hurricanes was pretty good. why were they taking that risk and obviously heading right to where the hurricane was. stuart: what a dreadful story.
9:11 am
coming up ben bernanke, he says wall street executives, individuals, should have gone to jail for their role in the crash of '08. that's red meat to judge napitano and he's on it in a moment. and obamacare bureaucracy, you're not going to believe the new coding system for various illnesses. how about 100 new codes just for diabetes? that strains doctors, causes wait times and much higher medical fees, doesn't it? ♪ hi, tom. how's the college visit? does it make the short list? yeah, i'm afraid so. it's okay. this is what we've been planning for. knowing our clients personally is why edward jones is the big company that doesn't act that way. you can't breathed. through your nose. suddenly, you're a mouthbreather. well, just put on a breathe right strip which instantly

9:14 am
huh. the good news is my hypertension is gone. so why would you invest without checking brokercheck? check your broker with brokercheck. >> in front, going all the way to end the game. stuart: and now what are they now? 2-2? i think so, yes, 2-2. okay. by the way, beat man u and that's the thing. >> and what's that.
9:15 am
stuart: did the audience hear that? wait a minute, are we still watching, look at this. he runs and he gets clobbered. okay. that's the expert commentary. okay. [laughte [laughter] >> here is the formal introduction of judge napitano. ben bernanke telling usa today more corporate executives should have gone to jail because of their role in the great recession. roll at that tape. >> it was within my preference to have more, more investigation of individual actions as obviously everything that went wrong or it was illegal was done by some individual not by, you know, an abstract firm. in that respect i think that there should be more accountability at the individual level. stuart: now, this red meat for judge napitano? i'm not sure. what do you think? bernanke wants-- he wants perp walks by the sound of it, do you.
9:16 am
ashley: you know what he wants? >> book sales, it's all about selling his memoir and the clip that we just ran, as i understand it, i haven't seen the book yet, reiterates or teases some arguments he made in the book, but seriously, for a person to go on national television without naming names or identifying crimes and saying that people should have been invited is not the mark of a serious scholar of the recession of '08 and how it happened. and i don't know who he's talking about, i don't know what crimes he's talking about. >> talking about the role of the fed, he wasn't running the fed. stuart: the authorities went after institutions and threatened them with a criminal prosecution unless they coughed up tens of billions of dollars because that's how the authorities work it out. >> yes, the authorities were more interested in filling bugetary gaps with cash than putting people in jail. it's difficult to reach the bar to put somebody in jail, but
9:17 am
it's easy to threaten to put somebody in jail who has a lot of money, knowing that they'll cough up a lot of money. stuart: the wall street board is sitting here. >> exactly, judge, what that was was a shakedown operation. what was the crime, selling junk stuff to sophisticated investors who should have known better? if you with a pt to point the finger, point the finger at fannie mae and freddie mac, to the bureaucrats who said let's sell mortgages to people who can't afford them. >> of course, the bankers knew that fannie and freddie would buy any piece of garbage they put together and who was on the hook? taxpayers. and bernanke was offering th this-- using this loosely, he didn't have any responsibility in this? >> you don't approve of ben bernanke's statement that individuals should have been
9:18 am
prosecuted and perp walked? >> if he knows this he should tell the justice department was and-- wants to sell a book. >> the government was behind the housing crisis, it's a bait and switch. go look over here, don't look at us in washington. ashley: blame the people we encouraged to act the way they acted. stuart: the government was responsible for the housing crisis? >> yes, and the crown jewel of all of this, tarp. stuart: tarp. >> thank you. [laughter] . stuart: by the way, ben bernanke is on with maria tomorrow. i'm not sure of the precise timing, but he's on with maria tomorrow morning, 6 to 9. and we won't get into the idea that-- no, we won't. that ben bernanke saved the american economy, let's not go there now. >> a separate issue. stuart: yes, indeed, the mic is open.
9:19 am
coming up, hillary clinton on "saturday night live." she is trying to change, shift her public image by making herself appear more likeable. some say it worked. >> can a business have a mind? a subconscious. a knack for predicting the future. reflexes faster than the speed of thought.
9:20 am
can a business have a spirit? can a business have a soul? can a business be...alive?
9:21 am
9:22 am
>> hillary clinton making a special appearance on "saturday night live." the season premier. look at this, please.
9:23 am
>> all anyone wants to talk about is donald trump. >> donald trump? isn't he the one that's like, uh, you're all losers? >> do you think he'll win the primaries? >> he must. i want to be the one to take him down. i will destroy him and i will mount his hair in the oval office! . stuart: did that make hillary look more likeable, mary? >> was that-- that was an ad forhill. i thought the point was snl was to skewer the guests. i didn't think, where was the e-mail scandal. >> it felt like hillary wrote it. ashley: a satire to mary's point. >> why were they doing a skit about hiding the e-mail server in the trunk of her car or in the front yard. stuart: get your point. i thought she looked more likeable in that particular
9:24 am
skit. how about this one. hillary is expected to announce a gun control plan today and ashley, i think the principal proposal to-- >> third party liability, you were pointing out in the commercial, like making fedex responsible for those who mail drugs. >> and tightens up on background. ashley: that takes everybody out of the process. >> a lot of the guns are legally obtained, even without the background checks. the question, how do we solve the problem of the mass murders? president obama said we have to politicize this, which to me suggests that he wants to make it a political issue, he doesn't want to focus on solving. stuart: taking the legislative, we the people, that's out of the equation. the judiciary takes care of the gun manufacturers and the executive branch takes care of
9:25 am
background checks. ashley: we the people have no say. stuart: can you imagine the class action suit that they will be launching on this. i think we've kelt dealt with that. coming up, we'll take a look a the a mini rally when the dow opens. one of our guests say, don't be fooled, the markets are set up for failure. and taxies about be to launched next year in japan, robot cab tackies.
9:26 am
9:27 am
9:28 am
9:29 am
>> for a person to go on national television without naming names and citing crimes without being indicted is not the mark of a serious scholar of the recession of '08 and how it happened. stuart: if you're just joining us you missed the judge there critiquing ben bernanke who says individuals should have done perp walks because of their role in the crash of '08. remember, please, we start at 9:00 sharp every single day. the opening bell will be ringing in precisely 30 seconds. we're expecting a triple-digit gain for the dow jones industrial average. this, of course, would continue friday's 200 point gain. we have that gain because it
9:30 am
was a rotten jobs report which implies that the federal reserve will not be raising rates this month, may wait until december or later. that apparently is good news for stock prices. you can never depend on how exactly it's going to be taken, but that's the few of the market so we're about to open and we will open up, probably about 100 points. let's see how we do. the bell has rung, we're up 30 points, 32 points, away we go. joining us this morning, keith fitz-gerald. ashley webster is here and scott shellady. keith, first to you, earlier on the show you warned that the system could fail again, time to cash out, maybe. say that again, please for the benefit of viewers just coming on board. >> sure, the system could fail and you could cash out, stuart. here is the thing, you want to be very cautious here, the system has not changed. to have ben bernanke coming out right now is very telling. it's a bait and switch, it's disingenuous at best.
9:31 am
he could say look over here because us at the fed, we did 0 your job. supporting the big banks, middle america is hurting and corporate earnings are in decline. you want to concentrate on those companies with strong cash flow and big balance sheets. they're out there, otherwise be cautious. stuart: scott shellady, you're basically a commodity kind of guy. why do you laugh when i say that? i'm going to ask you about stocks. time to cash out a little bit because the nasty episode is coming down the road? >> well, i mean, the definition of a black swan we can't predict it. i agree with keith. i think that ultimately the engine is broken and the numbers keep telling us that. as long as the fed stays data dependent, the reason that the market did rally back on friday, was maybe there were thoughts of maybe accommodation down the line, but i still say that shouldn't be good for stocks. if the economic engine is truly broken, then stocks should go lower. here is where we
9:32 am
9:33 am
9:34 am
9:35 am
we don't have any real true growth. and what the u.s. may be stumbling a little bit. how are you going to say that's a big driver. >> moving on to more individual stocks with individual issues affecting them. how about vw. it began stalling software designed to cheat on emission tests, this morning we hear the focus is on two engineers in particular after who did this thing. >> yeah, the two names coming up. one is audis chief engineer and-- lead engineer from porsche. these two individuals are stars in the german auto industry. they were put under pressure,
9:36 am
to get a fuel efficient engine sold in the united states that met the standards here, which are pretty strict. volkswagen is doing well around the world. one in four cars in europe are a volkswagen branded car. the pressure was to get it done in america and it's a huge market, the theory goes that they couldn't deliver without the defeat device as it's called. and that's where the investigation is focused right now. i want to know when that stock is going to move up. look, i'm not going to predict this, but in times past when major auto companies have gotten into trouble with some kind of scandal or other, the stock goes down and bounces back. vw is down to 22 today. ashley: the incoming chairman said a chilling comment, he said this scandal is quote, an existence threat to the company. stuart: and how much it's going to cost, the image.
9:37 am
ashley: the damage to the brand and image. diesel is less than 5% in the u.s. it's not a huge market, but the image, and cheating that goes back to 2008. stuart: now, on my script in front of me, it says death watch. that usually means we play the organ music. ♪ who is on death watch? american apparel. nicole, give me the background. nicole: the background, they have the ceo who founded the company back in 1989, weren't cutting it, there were always worries about misuse of funds and the teen retailer fickle in the first place. there's a one-year chart. it's 1 # -- 11 cents. this was a $16 stock back in 2007 and the ceo has about 15 million dollars in credit so the creditors are now looking to cash in and trying to hold him at least in part, responsible. on the other side of the coin, we're watching aeropostale
9:38 am
soaring, up 9% today. the same market, teen retailers, but, they're out, they could be in and aeropostale forecasting for the holidays, a 3% gain in sales, a winner. stuart: and wasn't aeropostale dropped way below a dollar a share? >> a very small company. these companies are having a hard time and some of them have gone out of business. cache, wet seal, body central, right, all of those filed for bankruptcy. it's a tough business. stuart: yeah, teen retailing, very tough. i should know. how about tuning in every weekday morning at 5:00, lauren simonetti, nicole petallides taking you through the business at 5:00 in the morning. disney, taking a page from uber, looking at surge pricing to control the themes at --
9:39 am
at the theme parks. ashley: signature plus, a 1,049. and you take away the plus, good for 350 days can't go on the peek days peak days. stuart: and that's the golden ticket. what about surge pricing? >> that's a good problem to have. some of the disney parks have been overcrowded and they're trying to stagger the crowds. gold, silver and bronze tickets. the gold could be used every day of the year, and so on down, because they're twice in recent times had to shut the park at the entrances because it reached maximum. so they're trying to say, if you want to be here on a peak day you're going to have to pay more, but if you're here on an off peak day much like uber, you pay less.
9:40 am
stuart: at the florida park, 105 for one adult for one day. ashley: a family of four well over 400 bucks before you eat. stuart: it's full of foreigners. ashley: it is. stuart: glencore, up. and in the asian market up as much as 70%. the company put out a statement no new announce on its part to explain the gains. can you tell me what's going on with the giant commodity company, scott shellady? >> lot has been written, the ceo has been flying all over the world trying to bolster investment confidence in that stock price. it looks like what he's saying and doing is working. i know he's a bull dog and he's a fighter. we'll give him a chance. i think it's mainly due to the fact they've been working extra overtime to make the investor confidence come back because it did go quickly.
9:41 am
>> this is about the worldwide slump in commodity prices, that's what it's all about, isn't it, scott. >> 100%. it's not just glencore. everything else has come off significantly. and you can't go anywhere else to find a reason for that except the big economic entrants around the world are broken. we haven't found true growth. he's going to have a fight on his hand, but right now seem to be coming back. stuart: good monday morning, the market has been opening. we're now at 16-6. and now, an issue very much worth talking about, ben bernanke, he told usa today that more corporate executives, individuals, that is, okay, should have gone to jail, done a perp walk for their role in the great recession. do you have any comment on that, keith? >> absolutely that's true. but, again, ben bernanke is
9:42 am
being disingenuous. it's all about book sales and ben bernanke, it's not an acknowledgment of his role in this. i find it appalling. stuart: scott shellady, what do you say about individuals should have been charged and go to jail? >> i saw the interview and i thought it's one big cop out. like any other liberal psychologist, i would say let's stop looking for blame and let's look in the mirror for accountability. that's what should be done here, not what he's saying. stuart: next up, driverless, robot taxies. they're going to be in a japanese town. ashley: it's south of tokyo for those of you keeping score at home. they're going to run the trial taxi service, you're seeing pictures of the elderly because they're going to use the taxis for elderly people who have no access or good access to transportation. they're going to put them in the robotic car, and they'll
9:43 am
have a driver in case something goes wrong. by all intents and purposes they're supposed to do nothing and let the robotic tackies do their job and by 2020 when tokyo has the olympics, they hope to have robot taxies in pla place. stuart: it looks like it's coming. the dow jones industrials are up 161 points as we speak. not a bad opening for a monday morning. here is what's next. joe biden targeting republicans. he says the g.o.p. candidates running for president are homophobes. sure sounds like he's going to make a run. more varney. proud of you, son. ge! a manufacturer. well that's why i dug this out for you. it's your grandpappy's hammer and he would have wanted you to have it.
9:44 am

(interrupting) you can't pick it up, can you? go ahead. he can't lift the hammer. it's okay though! you're going to change the world. that's a good thing, eligible for medicare? but it doesn't cover everything. only about 80% of your part b medical expenses. the rest is up to you. so consider an aarp medicare supplement insurance plan, insured by unitedhealthcare insurance company. like all standardized medicare supplement insurance plans, they pick up some of what medicare doesn't pay and could save you in out-of-pocket medical costs. call today to request a free decision guide to help you better understand what medicare is all about ...

and the beatles, on this day in 1962, they released "love me do", it was the band's first hit. the rest, as they say, is history. check out the big board, please. we're up nicely. 161 points and we'll take it. how about the price of gold, monday morning fresh out of the box, 1139 per ounce. we're up $3 this morning. and gas right there at 2.28, 2.29 a gallon average for regular, it's been that way ten days straight. 2.29. joe biden sounding a lot like a presidential candidate when he calls out the g.o.p. roll tape. >> the american people already with you look at the numbers. there are homophobes still left. most of them are running for president, i think. stuart: that was a slap. most of them are running for president.
9:48 am
obviously the republican side, let's bring out that. that was a gratuitous slap, was it not? >> as only joe biden can do. stuart: when you do a slap like that, that generally means you're setting up shop for a political run, doesn't it? >> you could say that anytime joe biden goes before a crowd, he's a sitting vice-president and you would expect something like that. stuart: you're a democrat, and harry reid, i won't go into that. he's a liar, i won't go thoo ththoo-- into that. do you want joe biden to run. first question, do you want him to run? >> that's something he'll have to decide for himself. that's deeply personal. stuart: penny lee, what do you think? do you want him to run?
9:49 am

10:02 am
do you think things would be more stable. >> of course they would be. stuart: well, that's interesting. joining me now, fox news analyst. i don't want to turn you into a trump analyst, but i would like to hear what you have to say about what he has to say. >> he's right. stuart: really? >> yeah. the middle east is a big giant snake pit and hussein on his. when the lid came off, all the snakes started slithering out. now, you can blame everybody; right? you can blame president obama, and i think that was true. you can blame bush for going in the first place. they're both wrong but what we're going to see in the next generation, the next ten years certainly is a fightan between the sunnis. stuart: that's a civil war in islam. >> it is a civil war and for them, they all think they've been chosen by the supreme being to be the surviving islamic -- so i think they're
10:03 am
in a fight for the finish. stuart: so this is how it's going to play out for years and years and years to come. >> that's right. stuart: the middle east is going to be left in rubble. >> it is. there are no longer borders that matter. they were evil, they were brutal, terrible leaders, but they kept the lid on the snake pit. and now what you see is borders don't matter. libya is jihadi chaos, iraq has been dismembered, and it's isis and then at the same time it's the persian, it's iran, russia, assad, iraq alliance. stuart: this can only result, and i'm changing the subject to some degree, only result in a huge flood of refugees. a new flood of refugees. >> yeah. stuart: from the muslim countries of north africa and the middle east. >> because all the guys are getting squeezed out. so you have the christians and the sunnis in the middle east, they have no place to go. they go fight for isis and
10:04 am
they don't want to do that, so they're leaving. >> trump is being criticized, as you reported that hussein used chemical warfare, mustard gas, killing hundreds of thousands of people. so is that keeping a lid on it, keeping in place when he goes across border. >> but this is a snake pit, remember. >> yeah. >> so the question is were they able to least keep the middle east a safer place. not safer for a lot of people for sure. but if you look at the jihadi chaos and the potential of nuclear weapons, it's horrible and hard to choose. >> the chemical warfare pushed iran to push for nukes; right? >> no. it did not. >> what you're saying is it takes a dictator to keep a lid on the snake pit. >> we have seen in the collapse of dibbing tapership throughout history that when that happens, chaos ensues. it's like a three x play. you've got the dictator, get rid of the dictator and then

saying that corporate america sees the writing on the wall, preparing for recession. make your case here. >> well, there's no doubt about that, stuart, and thanks for having me today. but with the threat of deflation, there's no doubt that's going to affect top line and bottom line revenue and earnings growth, hence there's a number of companies that have announced major layoffs, caterpillar a 10,000 person layoff, verizon said they're going to cut employee expenses by 2.5 billion. and the true employment rate is around 10%, we have very low labor-force participation . stuart: you're a money manager, a money visor kind of guy. you organize money, and may be corporations preparing for a recession, are you investing differently? are you saying take some money out of stocks at this point? will go to has been there's no doubt we're investing differently. we're really advocates for the average investor. and the stock market and the

10:10 am
greater. half the market is in a bear market right now and the macro data really indicates that there's a greater drop to come. and if the drop doesn't occur, this will be the first time in the history of the market that we didn't have a three drops in a long-term pattern. so i don't think that's going to happen with the stage set currently. stuart: very interesting. you gave us clarity. we like that. jeffrey shawl, everyone. thank you very much for being with us. you can come again soon. >> thank you, stuart,. stuart: now, we have the labor participation rate. at levels not seen. that is not stopping the markets. look at that. dow industrials up 181 points. can i call that a rally? i think so. 200 points friday. 191. >> sure why not. stuart: it's a rally, folks, i'll take it. it may be a lot more expensive to take your kids to vacation to the magic kingdom. more on disney's surge pricing after this [ male announcer ] eligible for medicare?

10:17 am
recovery, began in june of 2009, and every month that goes by more and more people dropping out of the labor force. now, stuart, you normally see the opposite, the economy picks up and recovers further and you see more people entering the labor force. so, by the way, month after month on your show i'm going to say it again. the biggest in washington is the unemployment rate is 5.1%. it is not 5.1%, it is 10% because you've got to include all these people who dropped out and the people who can't get full-time work and, by the way, that was the other big statistic that stuck out to me, people can't find full-time work in america, we count them as full-time employees. stuart: do you think we're going to approach a recession? because all the indicators -- they're not spiraling down but there's real signs for concern here and if we really do slow this economy, i don't think this administration has any tools to fix it. >> i don't think we're headed to a recession. i think we're just stuck at 2%. we may -- may be in that 1.75
10:18 am
to 2.25%. we've been there for six years, i anticipate we're going to stay in that. now, you raised the key point. what did the president say when this lousy jobs report, the despicable jobs report came out on friday? he had three solutions. number one more infrastructure spending. i think we tried that, didn't we, with the shovel ready projects six years ago. and number two he mentioned the export, import bank. like, yeah, if only we could fund the export, import bank. i just wrote a piece in the wall street journal on friday saying stop the budget caps. stuart: but if the president got everything he's asking for, infrastructure, export, import, et cetera, et cetera, give him everything he wants, would that give us 3- 4% growth. >> no. no, it wouldn't obviously not. now, look. i said this the other day on fox, but i'll repeat it. i have three ways we can
10:19 am
increase growth, you know, to 4%. number one you just heard it from katie, she's right. frack, frack, frack. number two get the epa off of the back of businesses just last week they came out with these new epa regulations with respect to ozone, which they say is the most costly regulation they've seen in 20 years and number three roll back the epa -- i mean the obamacare regulations on how many people you can employ and how many hours they work. i mean why don't we just get rid of the 30-hour week rule. let's say 40 hours a week is a full-time job and then more hours given to the workers and they need the work. stuart, how do you feed your family working 28 hours a week? . stuart: i sense your frustration. but here's -- let's close this with some good news. >> okay. stuart: of about 20 seconds. good news. every single one of the republican candidates who is talking about tax cuts. >> yeah. stuart: to create growth, your message, ask i know you've delivered it personally to
10:20 am
these candidates is getting through. >> and, you know,, stuart, you get a president who wants to do these things, you can do them all. and i left out, cut the corporate tax rate from 35 to 15%. we've got it. solved all of our problems. [laughter] . stuart: thank you for joining us. we've got it this time. now, the coast guard says the cargo ship has sunk. authorities are no longer looking for the actual ship. this is a search-and-rescue mission now. listen to this from a coast guard news conference just moments ago. listen up. >> we want to make sure there are no signs of life. they were hoping to find a survivor, so we needed to check everyone. in one of the survival suits, we did identify human remains in one of the survival suits. we lowered a rescue swimmer to confirm that the person was deceased and was basically unidentifiable. stuart: can you imagine sailing a ship of any size into the middle of a hurricane? it's impossible, isn't it?

good observation. up to seven candidates that can really pay play in this top tier approach. this is areas where either candidates have room to grow. the fact that they can bring in other gop voters to support them. trump still maintains that lead. it is tightening up. i think that that third debate, it will be incredibly important. >> i think of you, i should not say and establish republican, the fact that you are -- >> i would say that i am a conservative. stuart: are you therefore pleased to see trumps lead? >> carson and feel rina bring in

stuart: hillary clinton following the speed of president obama. what she is actually doing is taking the politics out. voters, set aside. you are not part of the clinton plan. she would use executive power to change the rules on background checks. the legislative branch of government has failed to act. take the issue out of their hands and have the executive branch take charge. voters do not count because voters do not vote the right way. impose a legal liability on gun manufacturers. this time, she would use the judiciary. the trial lawyers to get what the left wants.
11:01 am
can you imagine the class action suit? can you imagine the cost that would be imposed on gun makers? what we are looking at here is a power grab. they have failed to win the support of voters and they have failed to win the support of all of these people who are buying guns at record rates. the latest example of the left using good executive ranch to impose its will on we the people. ♪ >> a 200-point rally. we have that on friday. that is a modest rally. how about ge. not often that you get a big-name moving 4% higher. activist investor. two and a half billion dollars worth of ge stock. he says that it is undervalued.

11:04 am
we think they will lose it in 2016. >> demographics. putting demographics right up front there as one of the reasons why we will have a crash in the next couple of years. we are having far fewer children. we are aging throughout western society. populations are actually shrinking and aging at the same time. >> it is more precise than that. age 46. they spend less and then they spend down their retirement savings. from age 46 on, it is toast. most countries do not have a generation large enough to even replace these baby boomers. we will never need more houses again. look at japan and germany. this will only get worse. you cannot grow your way out of this. stuart: thank you very much for

now -- >> full disclosure, i used to work at nbc, which is owned by ge. not a bad guy. stuart: no understood. >> yeah. stuart: but is nelson going after his leadership at ge. >> here's what's going on right now. we don't know what's going on in the future. right now nelson pelts capital is a big activist hedge fund. one of the biggest investors in ge, so he has power. right now enwent to -- this is interesting, activist investors, they're fortunate to do something. if it stays as it is now, this is a new step in activist investing where the activist is actually enwent to the plan of jeff, which is to become smaller and buy back stock. so that's right now. now, here's where it gets interesting because ge is the company that generally does not like to be told what to do. nelson is a hedge fund manager that likes to tell people what to do as a activist.
11:35 am
he doesn't like demand, he doesn't go to low out the he's endorsing them now. when the two sides don't agree, so he going to say screw you, jeff? that's when it becomes contentious. right now it looks like, would jeff step down? now when you have nelson pelts throwing in a chunk of change, endorsing his plan and calling. they put out a white paper, they did a huge analysis they're saying this is a 45-dollar stock over the next three years. jeff, if i'm minimum of is about 60 years old, he's going to be there for three years to watch the stock and retire. that's got to be his plan now. but this is going to become real interesting if they go -- if they start arguing with each other. the other thing is you have to ask yourself. why did they do what he's doing now sooner. >> yeah.
11:36 am
>> i mean he waited forever to really take this company. stuart: nudge from pelts saying you're doing the right thing, get it done. that's why i'm putting money. >> simple, by the way, reported last year. this is how fascinating this is. he invited pelts in to give him some advice on what to do about activist investing, meaning jeff. stuart: that's right. >> foxbusiness.com you can go and read the story. stuart: and a friendly relationship. >> now it's friendly. stuart: all right. thank you, charlie. breaking news here we go. amtrak is reporting that the train that travels from vermont to dc has derailed about ten miles south of vermont state capital. emergency crews are on the scene obviously more on that as it becomes available. but this is just happening. the news just coming in. to afghanistan. the northern city u.s. officials investigating a deadly bombing of doctors without borders hospital could have been u.s. -backed air

strike that mistakenly hit that. and now engaging the taliban on the ground. former cia officer mike baker joins us now. is this something new? american troops special forces firing their guns in anger going after the guys in afghanistan. new? >> no. what they're doing is they're working as advisors. intel advisors, air support advisors for the afghan forces that over the past few days have been trying to retake from the taliban. this was a very important battle that's going on. it's over shadowed by a lot of other world events and we all set afghanistan to the side, unfortunately. but, yeah, we have personnel on the ground but they're not engaged directly in the fight. they're back advising the afghan troops. stuart: that you just change? do you think that the special forces and maybe others will start to take a much more active role firing their guns in anger quite deliberately
11:38 am
according to strategy? do you think they'll change that direction? >> well, i think -- not in the nearest term but i think in the midterm and long term if we don't want that country to fall back under taliban control, the only option is for us to stay engaged. and that likely will mean that, yes, there will be moments like this. and this situation with the doctors without borders extremely tragic. but it points to the fact that this urban-type warfare, the afghan forces came in, they mount a counter defensive for the taliban, that sort of engagement when you've got afghan forces working with u.s. advisors requiring u.s. air support at times inside urban environment. few scenarios that, you know, create the possibility of a goat rope more than that. stuart: the russians on the other hand with their bombing operations in syria, they

don't have to worry about civilian casualties, they don't have to worry that putin is going to apologize for killing some civilians. it's a totally different ball game if you're on the other side of the democratic fence. >> no. absolutely. and so we -- this -- again, i go back to this doctors without border situation because this is going to hold the headlines for a period of time until investigations prove exactly what happened. u.s. military despite what some of our enemies would like to say court and others who are opposed to the u.s. military, we try to do the right thing. occasionally there will be tragedies like this. but the investigations that follow, i think we've seen from the military over the past they -- they're thorough, and they try to identify those that are responsible, they try to be as transparent as possible. but this is going to play out for some period of time until we get all the facts. but you're right. putin acts, you know, on behalf of assad with complete immunity. we want to be on the side of good obviously. stuart: okay., mike baker, i'm short of time but thanks so
11:40 am
much for joining us today. thanks, mike. >> thank you. stuart: to the markets, please. the dow jones industrial trading on the upside, a nice gain this morning. right now up 172. and jason joining from us california. i want to start with one specific stock actually. and that will be facebook. i think you're really big on facebook, the stock is up today. a lot of people have told me that this is the one big tech stock that still has a ways to go o on the upside. what say you? >> what say me? well, i've said it more than once, and i'll say it again this morning. facebook is the ultimate growth stock. that's really the bottom line here. every single dip on facebook should be bought. it hasn't even hit triple digits yet. i think five years from now you'll look back at 100 and think my god why didn't i buy more at 100 and you can buy at 93. so i think facebook has a tremendous growth potential because it owns so many companies that could be publically traded successful companies in and of itself and
11:41 am
they're all owned by facebook . stuart: you make it out to be another apple or google, which a lot of people didn't see coming in the early days and the huge zoom took place a couple of years later. would you put facebook in that category. >> sure. i mean take a look at facebook relative to countless other companies and websites that try to make a dent in the social networking space that have failed. i mean, you know, ten years ago there was facebook versus my space. who even logs onto my space even more? they have shown that through foresight they know how to evolve but may the make a a boatload of money while they're at it. stuart: let's walk down the road one year. where do you see facebook one year from now. >> at least 20% higher. stuart: so you're looking at 115, 120, something like that. >> i think that's very reasonable, yeah. stuart: five years down the road. go ahead. surprise us all. five years down the road. >> 250. stuart: really?
11:42 am
okay. >> 250. yeah. because the thing is there's virtual reality, there's hundreds of millions of members on what's app that aren't even being monetized yesterday. facebook owns instagram, which everybody logs onto 100 times a day now. and they're just starting to monetize it. there's the whole emerging markets which have yet to log onto facebook. so, again, i mean there's no 100% sure thing, but i think this is pretty close. stuart: all right, jason, you're on videotape saying 150 to 120 a year from now, 250, five years from now on facebook. >> i'll see you there. stuart: all right, jason, good stuff. thanks for joining us. appreciate it. >> sure. stuart: hillary clinton appearing on nbc this morning going after republicans and their attacks over her e-mails and benghazi. the judge on hillary. next we live in a world of mobile technology, but it is not the device that is mobile, it is you.

11:47 am
now, there are reports that two cars went over an embankment and are on fire. emergency crews are on the scene but that's where it happened to an amtrak train. okay. more details coming up we'll have them for you. and now this. hillary clinton appearing on nbc today's show. visibly angry at republicans over their investigation into her e-mails and into benghazi. listen to this. >> look at the situation they chose to exploit to go after me for political reasons. the death of four americans in benghazi. i knew the ambassador. i identified him, i asked him to go there. i asked the president to nominate him. this committee was set up as they have admitted for the purpose of making a partisan political issue out of the death for americans. i would have never done that and if i were president, and there were republicans or democrats who were thinking about that, i would have done everything to shut it down. stuart: judge andrew napolitano is here. i would have done everything
11:48 am
to shut it down if i were the president. >> that brings to me-to-mine two observations. one she's being critical of president obama for not shutting it down. two the president cannot shut down a congressional inquiry when the other party controls congress. and richard next onwhere this can lead. stuart: fair point but the guy who who wants to be the speaker of the house, mccarth mccarthy, he has admitted frankly that it was a political move on the part of that committee. exploiting that. >> if his admission is true, it's reprehensible. however, his admission is belied by the hundreds and hundreds of hours of sophisticated law enforcement work that's been done by investigators and committee members. when she said this is being -- this is taking advantage of the death of four people, this is obviously in effort to ship the focus from herself to the death of four people.
11:49 am
i appointed the ambassador, he worked for me, which she forgot to say, i put his schedule where he was going in libya and in insecure server that could be hacked by anybody. because among the confidential classified e-mails that have been released were hers talking about where the ambassador was going in libya. she didn't say that in her things that she did on behalf oon behalf of the ambassador. she's going to have to answer for that. . stuart: yes. but she's making hay with that comment from the. >> uh-huh. stuart: possible future speaker of the house about the politicalization. >> whether it's true or untrue, it's beyond me. stuart: right. >> if it's true and he said it, he should be kicked out of politics, if it's untrue and he said it, there's no way he should be speaker. stuart: all right, judge, you said earlier that hillary clinton is tightening the nuse, which is of her own
11:50 am
making about the e-mail situation. >> yeah. stuart: explain, please. >> she continues to give altering explanations from what she said before. she has said consistently there was no classified material on any e-mail i sent or received. the government has now identified 400 e-mails with classified material ranging from confidential, the lowest denomination to top secret. how could things, like, satellite photographs of north korean military, e-mails of cell phone of foreign agents, the ambassador of stevens as he traveled throughout libya, how could that not be classified? i don't know how she can explain it. as well she said this morning on the today show that she chose which e-mails were personal and which were government before this morning, she insisted she didn't make that choice, it was done by her lawyers, or it was done by her personal aids
11:51 am
. stuart: and her aids have now lawyered up. >> at the advice of her own lawyer. stuart: okay. the nuse is tightening. okay. we hear you. judge, thank you very much indeed. >> you're welcome. stuart: up next, it could cost you $5 to take money from an atm. >> what? . stuart: yeah. under what circumstances is that going to happen? we're going to tell you. we've got a report. and a very special guest tomorrow on mornings with maria. former fed chair ben 6:00 a.m. eastern is when the show starts, on that show, it's on fox business. what super poligrip does for me is it keeps the food out. before those little pieces would get in between my dentures and my gum and it was uncomfortable. just a few dabs is clinically proven to seal out more food particles. super poligrip is part of my life now. i accept i'm not the rower i used to be.. i even accept i have a higher risk of stroke due to afib, ♪
11:52 am
icantly less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis had both. that really mattered to me. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. i accept i don't have to set records. but i'm still going for my personal best. and for eliquis. reduced risk of stroke plus less major bleeding. ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you.
