our games, nothing it more important to us. i think it's going to be a good experience when it's said and done, it will motivate everybody to work harder. a good thing. maria: jason robbins, thanks so much. thanks, everybody, a great day. stuart varney is next. have a good show. >> thank you, maria. maria: that doesn't sound like stuart. it doesn't like like stuart. >> i'm stuart in spirit today. thanks a lot. maria: i'm sorry, charles. >> the real stuart-- >> i don't see you before we come to you and i need somebody to tell me that you're-- i mean, like i'm going to watch double now. >> that's okay, we want you to watch no matter what, thanks, maria, appreciate it and by the way, stuart will be back tomorrow. in the meantime, we've got an amazing story for you. isis trying to get their hands on nuclear weapons, that's right, gangs affiliated with the ties, and trying to sell

nukes to the terrorists. and joe biden is the candidate in three swing states now in polling, the best chance to win in ohio, florida and pennsylvania according to yet another new poll. and donald trump, well, he goes after george w. bush calling the iraq war, a quote, disaster. now the new york attorney general investing those fantasy sports website. you just saw the ceo trying to explain himself. espn now has pulled the sponsored segments for now. a lot to go now, three hours of "varney & company" about to begin. >> first, take a look at the dow futures, a beautiful thing. pointing to a higher opening, up 110 points. a massive reversal since last friday. big question now, it's a legitimate one, could we hit 17,000 by friday? last friday we were wondering if we could hold above 15,000?

a wild market, we'll keep you abreast of that. here is something that's going to get a hit at the open. yum! brands, parents of kentucky fried chicken, taco bell. they cut the four-year profit forecast and slower than expected in china. the other end of the spectrum, oil has been on fire. look at this, close to that $50 a barrel range right now, 49.20. gasoline 2.29, went up overnight. it's considered cheap that's the national average for a gallon of regular. listen to this, anheuser-busch inbev is making another bid for sabmiller. $104 billion. sabmiller rejected an offer. they're belgian-brazilian. this would combine the number

one and two brewers, i'm not sure if it would pass regulatory reform. nonetheless, the shares are higher, anheuser-busch on verge of capturing the entire beer market. disturbing news from the associate press, isis trying four times the past five years to buy nuclear weapons with gangs with alleged ties to russia. let's bring in rich lawrie, fox news contributor, rich, this is disturbing since it feels like from what i'm reading they're close to getting their hands on a nuke or nuclear materials. >> it's something like out of a james bond movie, they're trying to sell nuclear material to our worst enemies and plots that we know about have been foiled, but apparently one of the downcides to foiling them as early as they've been foiled, they get away with all the material and apparently for some reason the smugglers aren't seriously punished so it's an ongoing security concern. >> a lot of them are in mall

dova and meet at the high end clubs. and i've seen this movie before. i think i saw one was triple-x. and i've seen this and-- >> nicole kidman was there. >> an eastern european country, high end club, disco, and a-- >> jumping out of an airplane. >> it's real though. >> fiction does follow fact, right. >> to the point, the king pins of this get away. they're back out there and try it again. they've been stopped four times in five years, what are the chances if one of the attempts gets through. >> they high. donald trump was on special report last night with brett baier. here is what he had to say about russia's involvement with syria. >> you look at syria, also

hitting isis, by the way. if somebody wants to hit isis, that's okay with me. >> rich, what are your thoughts, donald trump saying, okay, let putin have fun. >> it's not about hitting isis. they've launched some strikes now against isis, but the major project there is buttresses the regime of bashar al-assad and they'll harass turkey, a nato state. >> why would russia harass turkey? >> because the big strategic play here ultimately for putin is try to defang and demonstrate the uselessness of nato. so, he's going to play around the edges in the southern part and then he's also going to do it in europe. we're going to see some, i believe, before this administration is over, some big play in the baltics, where those states will ask for nato help because putin is going to send his men in there. >> will we give him the help? >> putin is saying no.

>> russians were kicked out in 1973 from egypt and they're bk there. they'll have power from moscow to tehran to baghdad to damascus and looking at turkey, he's getting this ball rolling under our noses we've got to at some point say enough is enough. >> it's also costly for russia, they have a 3% budget deficit and have due bills coming in. >> and i know we want to break the economic back of russia, but it's a dangerous game, very dangerous game at a tough period of time for the world. we want to stick with politics here. we've got a new quinnipiac poll out showing ben carson and joe biden would be the best candidates for their party to win the three key king states. in florida carson beats biden head to head. however, in ohio carson tops biden and in pennsylvania. this time by a wider margin 47-42%.

and liz peak with the fiscal times is leer. the polls where they are right now, trump with more competition, but hillary, really, in trouble. >> oh, hillary has been in trouble for weeks if not months and the world is waiting to see if joe biden is coming in the race, even without being in the race, he's doing better than she is in a number of confrontation. she has run in my view a bad campaign, it gets worse the revelation about the e-mail scandal. the good news for her, it's taking attention from the foundation which is also a problem for her. i think that biden is a strong candidate and particularly, if, as is rumored he comes in with elizabeth warren as a running mate. >> who would have thought six months ago we would be talking about carson and biden as the strongest candidates on each side. one of them isn't even in the race. >> although would he could argue not being in the race helps, too, you don't get the scrutiny and hillary is killing herself shooting herself in the foot.

by the way the same poll adds credence to pundits that trump is the favorite g.o.p., even though he beats those in the party he loses to the democrats. >> the polls are skittish and every time someone says that gets attention as carson did about muslims last week, he surges in the poll, what isn't going to change too much, i don't think, is the growing unfavorable trustworthiness issues that are a problem for hillary and increasingly for trump. >> those are bouncing back and in this poll took another dive lower, a lot of republicans say they're adamant in this that they're not going to vote for donald trump, mid 20's to high 30's anywhere in the state. >> the conventional wisdom about trump is correct, so much has been wrong, there's a ceiling there. if you're not with him after he's gotten five months, more earned media than god, you'll probably never be with him.

>> saying he's going to sort of morph into more traditional campaign, with his wife and family and kind of things that make us more endearing to politicians. you're laughing. you see the trump family walking around and. >> am i going to feel better? okay, that's my groove. back to fantasy sports scandal. espn pulled draftkings segments from the show and they are there's an investigation into this, what will they be looking for. job titles, job descriptions of the people working at these fantasy sports sites and you know, it's interesting, espn is trying to, you know, create distance now between itself. major league baseball, the nfl all have deals with these-- the two big ones, democratic and fanduel. what i've heard from most, they have no clue that the workers there were actually involved in the games themselves, even though it wasn't on their own

site, it was the other one and they had access to proprietary information. we had the ceo on maria's show, he said we've done a big internal investigation no wrongdoing. >> i think he should have been cool and said listen, we're going to investigate and leaking to people the lists and-- >> i thought that was a ridiculous conclusion, if i were he, i would say we have some problem and we're going to tighten regulations and they also came out with a joint statement the two big companies, we don't have a problem because we enforce the rules. not true. >> i can't get my head around the fact that what started as a pastime of anti-social, baseball, statistic nerds have now become a corrupt industry, billions. >> it may be, to call it corrupt, but more than dungeons and dragons. volkswagen about to announce a

massive recall, jo ling kent has a lot more in case you missed it. >> the volkswagen new ceo said they're going to start, told a german newspaper it's going to start a massive recall of those diesel cars in january expected to last through the end of next year. the german company says it will be correcting the software cheating the system. and google, you can hit edit and draw, it's been popular on facebook messenger and snap chat. two billion have been uploaded to facebook every day. despite endless expectations are weddings. many couples spent less than $10,000, but the average is 26,000.

but it's skewed because of places like manhattan. i'm married. >> you get married in city hall. >> what about pure love, says the man who spent more than 10 grand on the ring. >> nice. >> and microsoft breaking the mold. they're after apple. and the question, can they compete with the big guys or too late? we'll have the answers for you next. first, the yankees, one and done in the playoffs, losing that wild card game last night to houston at home, by the way, 3-zip. the astros homered twice and the yankees managed three hits in total. . >> and a swing and a ground ball to short, a big hop for correia and astros advance to kansas city.

it's a clump of fire ants in greenville, south carolina, yikes. >> formed together, they create an island and they do have to survive, and they can form a raft like this and remain floating for weeks. of course that storm jumped 11 trillion gallons. >> don't put your hand in it. charles: nature is amazing, it is. a quick check of the futures, speaking of amazing, last friday we were off 250 points and we've been up since then. now the question is, could the dow hit 17,000 this week? it might. and also, made a really nice move, it's actually been creeping up here. we're going to get inventories in the next hour that always moves oil and have eric bolling in to join us and tell us where it's going at 10:30 eastern. now a look at microsoft shares, where they're going to open. slightly higher this morning, a day after they unveiled two new phones, a laptop and a wearable fitness device.

and this augmented reality system, you feel like you're fighting with robots just like if you were actually in the movies. let's bring in christine, a lot of new things from microsoft. >> at that take them on in the laptop space, the surface has gone against the mac book air. and they have the surface book and that could do well against the mac book pro. it has the pin inputs and the detachable keyboard and runs windows which a lot of businesses still run. this is the first time we've seen high end hardware that can go against a laptop from a major competitor. charles: i thought that laptops had sort of been written off, but we've seen tablet sales peak as well. can they both survive, whether it's microsoft or apple, because you mentioned that the

detachable part, or, you know, i feel like one of them has to go. >> yeah, i think eventually one has to go. i think that microsoft has been ahead of the curve trying to figure out a way to have the hybrid model where it can be both and apple has been slower to catch onto that and announced the ipad pro last month and introducing it later this month and taking cues from what microsoft is doing. charles: the phones? >> the phones, that's not going to compete with anyone. charles: why does microsoft waste their time on that? to say this we can do this. >> i think they're trying to do things with phones, they're trying to build apps for android and ios. they build good apps and a good platform. it's hard for them to say we lost on mobile, knowing it's important. lost on mobile. charles: you lost microsoft, move on. but the three grand, the

virtual reality is coming back and, you know, a decade ago it was a bust, but this time it's going to set our world on fire? >> that looks great and three grand is for the developer version. we don't know what it will cost for end users. microsoft has the xbox legacy and it's the augmented reality and it's both. charles: of course, we know that oculus is going to be doing things with other gamers and that's a big area. and i'm afraid to get involved in it because i'm going to lose touch with the little bit of reality i already have. really appreciate it. [laughter] stephon marbury, new yorkers remember him, do you? he played for the knicks and then to china and guess what, he's taking on michael jordan off the court, criticizing him for the price of sneakers. it's controversial and it's next.

you wouldn't take medicine without checking the side effects. hey honey. huh. the good news is my hypertension is gone. so why would you invest without checking brokercheck? check your broker with brokercheck.

>> point guard stephon marbury getting ready to release his uberaffordable starburies. and comparing the two sneakers, one marbury tweet reads, jordan

has been robbing the hood since kids dying for shoes and the only face he makes i don't care, times will change. ashley, this is an important story. ashley: it is, $15 as opposed to michael jordan's shoes that cost anywhere from 70 to $220. charles: right. ashley: and jordan, he says, has been robbing the hood and kids dying for shoes and the only face this dude makes is i don't care. it's very inflammatory. charles: it gets back we talk about how many murders happen in chicago. a lot of it will be over things like a pair of sneakers. ashley: sure. charles: i got beat up for wearing the wrong sneakers, when i lived in harlem, you could get physically beaten to a pulp for wearing skips. and i don't blame michael jordan, the accountability has to be in the community. when black people continue to point the finger away from black people committing atrocities against each other i think it's an farce.

i mate that-- i hate the way that marbury is going around it. >> and by the way, $15 sneakers aren't a token of success. charles: marbury wasn't a success and he didn't live up to his potential, and he did play in china. getting back it accountability. every weekend when 20 black people shoot 20 kids in chicago, new orleans, they never blame the black kids, they blame guns, the media, tea party. >> and sneakers. charles: thanks a lot. up next, we're in dow 13-- i'm sorry, 13, i hope that wasn't-- 17,000 watch. ashley: what? >> we'll have a few reluctant bears to talk about it. 17,000 by friday, is that possible? mcdonald mcdonald's launches all day breakfast. the opening bell rings in just three minutes.

we're cracking down on medicare fraud. the health care law gives us powerful tools to fight it. to investigate it. prosecute it. and stop criminals. our senior medicare patrol volunteers

are teaching seniors across the country to stop, spot and report fraud. you can help. guard your medicare card. don't give out your card number over the phone. call to report any suspected fraud. we're cracking down on medicare fraud. let's make medicare stronger for all of us. >> the big strategic play here, ultimately for put putin it to defang the uselessness of nato and he's going to play around on the southern part and do it in europe. we're going to see some, i believe, before the

administration is over, some big play in the baultics. >> that was rich lawrie at the top of the hour, remember, we start 9 a.m. eastern every single day. the market will open in seven minutes. last friday the dow hit 16,000, now we're considering the dow going to 17,000. maybe the next 24 hours or so. that's it. we're opening bell, we're ringing and you can see on the board there we're up 23 points out of the gate on the big board. and shah galani and liz peak. you're a reluctant bear and bearish and pretty strong in convictions. now would you say dow 17,000 by friday? >> we could see 17,000 today. there's nothing ahead in terms of the dow getting there. charles: what happened in the last 72 hours? >> i think the sentiment changed briefly and it could change back, right now we're looking at the same old story, the fed probably going to delay and now we're looking at oil. i think the rise in the price of oil is giving folks who are

worried about the commodities markets and some of them, glencore and some of the issues, and if the oil market is heating up we've got a clear path forward. charles: i'm looking at rio tippetto's move, and i'm shocked. is the commodities route over and if it's over does that bode well for the global economy? >> you know what, i don't know how you can say the global commodities route is over. because we're not seeing growth out there in europe and china and even in the u.s. suspect to so it's tail wagging the dog now. and as far as the fed not tightening before the end of the year, that's bad news, too. and shah mentioned earlier, i think we see 17,000, but for the reasons we're seeing it, oil shouldn't be up where it is economic growth, it's up there because people think maybe they're going to start parring back supply of it.

that would be the only reason. that doesn't indicate growth in my view. charles: well then let's switch gears a little bit. i like the topic, i want to get back, let's talk about yum. there's kentucky fried chicken, taco bell, a big, big forecast miss. shah, are you buying this, that it's only china or that this is some sort of proxy for china? >> well, 50% of their, the revenue comes from china so i'm worried about the fact when the ceo comes out and says there are unexpected headwinds. i'm not sure if 50% comes from china, ratcheted the earnings expectations below, so when the ceo talks down, the earnings of the company, that worries me. >> dan, here is the thing, some pee say it's a proxy for china, i'm not necessarily buying it. yum had a major controversy there, and i don't know if i lived in china if i would go back and eat there either. what do you think, is it yum

specific or-- i think it's yum specific. whatever fast food item they get it's like the glow is wearing off on it. i want to see what the rest of china is doing. yum! brands is not the big global mover of china. so i'd say it's a company specific issue, not a china specific issue. >> let's switch to something that's a global proxy, oil is up again, dan. we know about the troubles in the middle east and you talked about the dynamics, with the demand and supply, let's face it, oil's freefall in the first place came at the hands of the shenanigans, and with the fracking miracle. this sort of equilibriuequilibr. >> demand could pick up? >> absolutely, demand could pick up. we have to ask ourselves where does oil belong? one thing that's important to remember, saudi arabia's ploy

was to put the frackers out of business. it does, but when it's 50, 60, will they pump? sure, they'll pump. i think we have a cap on oil, 55 to 70. unless we see strong economic growth out there. charles: that's huge. >> supply and demand should dictate. charles: 55 to 70 is huge from here, dan, absolutely huge. i want to take a look at microsoft shares of course, out of respect to stuart varney, who owns the stock, but they're getting into hardware, can they really give apple a run for the money, ashley? >> i think it's a good day for them yesterday. i like what they brought out. but apple is apple, are they going to put a dent in the i-mac? possibly. i think that apple is king of the heap. charles: are you a buyer. >> i've been a buyer of microsoft and one of our core holdings and add to that position. charles: do you like microsoft over apple. >> i like them both. both of them are core positions for us. charles: all right.

let's talk about fitbit it did dip after this. we know there arewarable devices in it. tell us where fitbit is right now. i'm sorry, nicole's not there. all right. we are watching some other winners though today and we've got to start with twitter, and we know the stock has been hammered down this year. we heard that saudi prince al waleed has doubled his stake, it's huge. and then there's fiat chrysler up 15% in the past week, auto workers authorizing a strike against chrysler. we're going to have more on that later. and we talked about apple, you know, apparently no impact. we can see the stock is up slightly and netflix, netflix, keep in mind up 121% this year and amazon is up 73% this year. you're a value guy, would you touch either of those? >> no. charles: none of them?

>> way too expensive for me at this point. charles: really? i don't know, you know, i hear-- i know everyone is saying sooner or later everyone is getting into the game and netflix is going to lose. i think that netflix has one more bounce in there. >> you ka you willed, very early on the call and you're right and i missed the boat. at this point if you want to jump in now there's a lot of downside potential. charles: the risk reward there. anheuser inbev, and sabmiller says it's not enough. another bid is coming up and would combine the world's number one and number two brewer. if the deal could happen. a lot of hurdles there. >> when you get number one and number two companies together. officials could look and say too much concentration. this deal, as i understand it, is complicated in terms of two different structures and so forth.

it looks like there are holdouts not particularly liking that structure, who knows? it would be a mighty big company and powerfully focused on different regions of the world. huge-- >> i really do know the see how the europeans in particular would allow this to go through and for me, you know, this morning constellations brands reported an amazing number. i think the stock is an all-time high so beer sales propelled them. beer is strong for me makes coors tap a good stock to look at. >> no, i don't think this deal makes sense. there's a debt component over 60 million dollars, i don't know if the market is capable to digest that. i don't know that it's going to pass regulatory. charles: it's a belgian-brazil company and with warren buffett and these are companies that combine everything. ashley: market share. charles: and fire a bunch of people. it couldn't create any economic

well-being for the underlying economies. >> this is what we see in top of markets. we see this consolidation, not a lot else to do with your capital. >> and when interest rates are zero percent. there's a tremendous amount of people that do deals that wouldn't be looking at them. charles: now let's take a look at mcdonald's, rather. yesterday they rolled out the all day breakfast nationwide, i think it's huge. even i-hop getting in on the act, trolling mcdonald's on twitter. do we have that tweet? we don't, but i-hop, this is their area. breakfast is their thing. and i don't think it's a silver bullet, that coffee was for mcdonald's at one point and the dollar menu is, but i think it's a good bridge to whatever that silver bullet might be. >> they need to make a lot of changes, this is a good start. this is something positive and been positive for the stock and had a nice bump here and-- >> anybody buying this? i think they do two things, put out press releases for media,

particularly the mainstream media and cage-free birds and antibiotics, but the fact of the matter is people like big fat juicy burgers and even chipotle isn't as healthy as it was made out to be. honestly, don't you want a big fat burger with a little bit of grease. let's revamp the burgers. >> that's a good point. that's a core product and haven't changed it. ashley: aren't they toasting their buns a little? >> i think the big mac debuted in 1959, let's revamp it. put in juicy meat. and in alabama they don't care about the antibiotics they want fat food that tastes good. let's look at tesla, tesla bulls are worried. they think the new model might be pricey. ben, you must have two or three of these. what do you make of the model x.

>> i've got an option on the fourth. this is too expensive for the masses. if you look at tesla, ford f-150 vehicle sold, and tesla won't do that in a year. and it's a great car, no denying it. they can't make it profitable enough for a 244 level. charles: i will say this, dan. doesn't it also give us-- doesn't acknowledge a dirty little secret that the majority of tesla owners are in a 1% and something ironic about the 1 percenters, getting subsidies to buy the flashy cars. >> absolutely, you've got to be extraordinarily well think to buy the cars and even the one with more traction for middle income people saying $55,000 and you're putting that up to low end luxury car levels, it's not going to happen. charles: there is a car that most middle class people can

afford and it's a lot of those volkswagen, unfortunately, a raw deal they've gotten. and volkswagen is going to start one of the biggest recalls in their history, they want to fix software designed to manipulate emissions tests and ashley, we've seen maybe in some degrees worse recalls recently. >> well, i was going to say where the loss of life was involved they've come back. charles: but they deliberately set out to cheat. ashley: the damage to the brand is significant. yesterday we did something about the resale valley and kelley blue book say they've dropped 1700 in value because of the cheating device, you know, on the emissions. can they recover? yes, they can, but it's going to be a little while before they can get back. charles: they were already struggling in america anyway. >> yes. charles: here is a number for you guys, grab a hold of this one, $2 trillion, that's with a t, how much money the 500 largest american companies in

america right now holding off shore to avoid taxes. apple, pfizer nike. liz, we've heard it before and every time it resonates. and we're getting a handle on it because donald trump has been talking it up and we're the only country that punishes people that makes profits from out of the country. >> it's not something that the companies are doing that it's inappropriate or wrong, they're doing it because the tax code is screwed up. if we want to change this and repatriate a great deal of this money, let's change the tax code and bring the money back. charles: a 10% window to lure the money. why not zero? he admitted zero sounds good, but thinks he can get 10%. give nem a zero and then 10% after that. george bush did this, we get 400, 500 billion back, but 300 billion is the stimulus plan that no american taxpayer has

to pay for. >> it's amazing some of this money isn't parked overseas because where the companies are investing and growing. it's not like $2 trillion is going to come home. charles: i said we could get 400 billion or 500 billion, a heck of a shot in the arm. let's look at the big board. the dow is strong and hanging in there 120 points, could we hit 17,000? shah says today and could sell everything. [laughter]. a warning about killer robots. some are worried about it and sounding the alarm next.

usaa makes me feel like i'm a car buying expert in no time at all. there was no stress. it was in and out. if i buy a car through usaa, i know i'm getting a fair price. we realized, okay, this not only could be convenient, we could save a lot of money. i was like, wow, if i could save this much, then i could actually maybe upgrade a little bit. and it was just easy. usaa, they just really make sure that you're well taken care of.

usaa car buying service. powered by truecar. online and on the usaa app. >> fantasy sports company fanduel releasing a statement this morning, says it's banned its employees from all daily fantasy game and banning employees from other fantasy sites. ashley: that's an important point they make that they made the announcement.

i don't think many people realized they were allowed to play on competing sites. that is causing controversy when they're getting access to proprietary material and gives them an advantage and knowing every player out there, what teams they're selecting, gives them of sense of getting an advantage. the new york attorney general, he doesn't care they say they've done nothing wrong. we had the ceo with draftkings this morning on with maria this morning and says we've done absolutely nothing wrong. charles: in 24 hours, we did an amazing investigation. it was big of him to come on and talk to maria, but maybe some attorney should have spoken with him first. he it wasn't convincing. >> not at all. charles: millions and millions of people are engaged in this. ashley: more than 14 billion. charles: and just like the stock market, you want to make sure it's fair. i don't know that people mind winning or losing that comes with the territory, but they

may have the advantage because some guy won $350 grand, like a tiny investment. ashley: $25. charles: this is like hillary clinton somewhere calling for whitewater workers and say what happened. ashley: oh, boy. charles: couldn't resist. and so, fanduel comes out and seems to be getting ahead of this in a different way than draftkings who adamantly just denying. ashley: they put out a joint statement yesterday. it does not smack of-- it feels like there needs to be a lot more investigated, that's the problem, charles and why we have the new york attorney general and others to get in there and it's going to lead to congressional hearings and they're going to get regulated. >> and senator ma len dez, he called for an investigation as well. some people consider is gambling, got by with the supreme court ruling, it's a

game of skill rather than chance. ashley: correct. charles: and a lot of states already think, have banned their people in those particular states from participating. ashley: right. charles: it's going to make it hard. ashley: it's amazing how far it's gone with players from other individual leagues endorsing it. it's like the horse bolted a long time ago on this thing. it's huge already, it will be interesting to see how much it will get reined in or attempts ma i had to rein it in. charles: nothing worse than sports than betting or gambling scandals. we've seen rape allegations, but never seen the punishment that these leagues have, and going back to the white sox scandal and it matters a lot. ashley: we cannot escape the commercials for these two entities. if you watch any sporting event over the weekend in the last few weeks, it's phenomenal the amount of advertising they've done and people say that's pretty good, i want to try that. charles: people talk about uber, all of these things, and

valuations and this stuff, these guys raised a lot of money including from 21st century fox. ashley: jerry jones from the cowboys and kraft-- >> people wondering if they've got enough cash. the big board, the dow jones industrial average up 134 points. having a great day. yum cut their earnings forecast in china. there you have all 30 stock, majority up and the ones on the bottom lagging behind. but mcdonald's look giving up gains from yesterday. more varney next. does it make the short list? you remembered that too. yea, i'm afraid so. knowing our clients personally is what we do. it's okay. this is what we've been planning for. thanks, bye. and with over 13,000 financial advisors,

seen the hollywood movies, we've read the books throughout the years, and beginning with isaac's free launch of robotics, you say that won't matter if we continue on the course that we're on we're going to regret it? >> i would say so. but i would say so, but ignore the --. >> go ahead. >> i'm sorry, i'm getting an echo here, just a second. i would ignore all you're hearing from the science fiction, really because we're talking here about things that look like conventional fighter jets, tanks, submarines, et cetera. charles: where is the risk, sir. >> such that they're-- once they're launched, they activate-- i'm sorry, i'm getting a terrible i can could he here and it's very, very difficult for me to talk. charles: and we're going to work on this, sir, and come back to you, ashley, listen, again, we all kind of understand the risk here and

there's a lot at risk associated with this, not just the science fiction things that robots would eventually turn on us, but the idea that it's easy-- it makes it easier to indescriminately kill people, harm people when you have a robot army at your disposal. ashley: it becomes a giant real life video game, with people at controls using these artificial intelligence to carry out whatever you want them to carry out. that video for some reason wigs me out. you know. charles: that's the darker project. and every year they give a prize. this year went to a south korean firm and, you know. ashley: it you imagine an army of thousands and thousands of these robots. charles: sure. ashley: although, you know what, who could use them. charles: anybody who lost somewhere in a war in the middle east say i would have preferred a robot rather than my son or daughter. there will be an inflection

point it will back fire to what degree. ashley: exactly that, where is it? i think we're close already. charles: first you're going to see this with drones. someone like isis can take drones retrofitted and that's what we'll see first, i think. hey, here is a headline that probably won't shock you, mainstream media, hillary clinton and i'm talking a whole lot more than joe biden and bernie sander, the idea of russia trying to buy nukes.

>> here is the big story for you this hour. terrifying news about isis, the associated press reporting that eastern european smugglers have been trying to get them nuclear material, enough to take out a whole part of major cities, they've been trying it four times in the last five years,

but they continue to try. the swing poll joe biden and ben carson, the two leading in florida, ohio and pennsylvania. as for hillary, she's all over the mainstream media. brent is here with how much coverage she's getting compared to competitors. and there are reports that say that directions led a woman to her death. the second hour of "varney & company" starts now. ♪ >> let's check out the big board, 16,000 last friday, could have hit 17,000 this friday. looking good right now, take a look at oil. creeping up. everybody was talking a two handle, a three handle. what about a five handle? close to 50. the oil rally hanging in there looking really good. unfortunately, yum brand won't be joining the parade. the parent company of kentucky

fried chicken and taco bell reported in china, stock is annihilated. disturbing news from the associated press, isis trying four times over the past five years to buy nuclear weapons from gangs with related ties to russia, rich lowery had this to say in the last hour. >> the plats have been foiled. but one of the down sides to foiling them as early as they have they get away with the material and the smugglers are not seriously punished. so it's an ongoing security concern. charles: navy veteran ortega joins us with more on this and here is the latest out of south carolina. the lanefall that flooded the state, amounted to roughly 11 trillion gallons, and the second wave of flooding is becoming swollen rivers, still could crest again. so far, the flooding has killed more than a dozen people and cost more than 1 billion in damage. a real natural disaster. back to the markets, john

layfield down in bermuda. i want to go straight to it. dow 17,000 by friday, what are your thoughts? >> i think certainly could. it seems to be that motor tum is carrying us up. it's a psychological barrier, anything more than that, the headwinds and economy are against the market right now. charles: why this remarkable reversal. it looked like when the job numbers came out and the dow was down 250. they said this is it, yields are going down and the market will crack down in 15,000. and how does that change in 48 trading hours? >> people are trying to find where the bottom is. second biggest economy in the world going from 7% to 5%, if those are real numbers, hard to tell with china, that's a 30% drop. that causes repraying-- repricing of markets around the

world and namibia to australia and there is a contagion effect. i think we're looking for a repricing of markets and we're not sure where that price is. charles: so we gave up 2,000 from the high and maybe it's somewhere in between? >> i think you're right. i think we're-- look, right now, we're realizing and the fed is realizing this, which is disconcerting, america cannot pull the world economy. you're seeing slowing of the global economy and we're seeing growth in our economy, but not enough growth to pull the world economy. charles: you have a couple of stocks you brought us today. why do you like ryder? >> people are going, people are worried they're not buying trucks, they're renting trucks. ryder, i do own it and pretty good appreciation from this point forward. charles: i like ryder and i think that people are going to start being able to quit their jobs and getting a new one

somewhere else, household formation, to your point, i think they're going to rent the trucks and go all out. controversial, you like bp, you think do the worst is behind them? >> i do. small yield, better than treasuries, but what isn't better than treasuries right now. they just settled with the u.s. government for the oil spill. i think right now, you're looking at oil stocks, i don't think we see 60, $70 an oil because iran is going to come on-line at some point, a million extra barrels coming on line some point probably in the next year, but i like the oil stocks right here and i think that bp has been beaten up so badly i think the worst is over. charles: i tend to agree with you, i like those paying hefty dividends. >> great to talk to you. charles: you, know, the headline of the morning, a fresh quinnipiac poll showing

that joe biden and ben carson, biden has an edge in florida, but in ohio carson 46-42 edge and then there's pennsylvania where carson on top by 47% to 42%. as for hillary clinton, well, she's getting all the love on the mainstream media. over the last nine months hillary received, get this, 80% of coverage among democratic candidates followed by joe biden who is not officially in the race at 13%, and bernie sanders has been killing it with only 6%. joining us now, media research center's brent bozell. the media had a love affair with the clintons, joe biden filling stadiums with 20,000 people and that amount is crazy. >> let's look at it this way. it's more telling, i think, the positive and negative coverage that they're getting. it is interesting. hillary's coverage in the last

two months has dealt with 54% of it has dealt with her scandals. so that makes it primarily negative because she doesn't want to be talking about that. but, these are events that are out of her control and they're just happening. the fbi has an investigation and what not. the media reporting that. but what is interesting to me is biden and sanders. in the two month period, joe biden's negative coverage 2%. bernie sanders' negative coverage zero, 100% positive and with none of them there is any discussion about the issues. not a one is being-- are the issued being discussed. bernie sanders is the most far left candidate potentially in history. there's not been one second devoted to that. charles: well, you're not necessarily surprised although i guess that the magnitude of the 0% negative coverage does

blow your mind. this is the kind of candidate, the mainstream media has been longing for for a long time. >> here is an interesting one, you're absolutely rate. they love bernie sanders and he falls in their narrative. here is something interesting to consider. joe biden, he's had a miraculous rebirth of his career in the last two years. let's remember, joe biden has had a history of being an incredibly nasty politician when he wants to be. think of robert bourke, the justice alito hearings, think how he made mince meat out of paul ryan in the last debate and yet, he has remained himself into this lovable grandfather figure. this other thing is his gaffes. dan quayle must be hitting himself in the head with golf clubs right now. joe biden is far more gaffe prone, but it becomes lovable when it was biden and a sign of idiocy with dan quayle. to me it's remarkable he has

played this media game brilliantly thus far. charles: we'll see if it's enough to lure him into the race officially. >> thanks for having me. charles: to this explosive growth in drone sales, the potentially deadly collisions now the subject of a major house hearing today. congress increasingly concerned that government rules are so weak that drones could collide with an airplane causing it to crash. of course, elizabeth mcdonald is here with more liz: the house hearing is underway right now. the f.a.a. has not come out with rules on drone use. they're going to punt it into march of next year. the headline, f.a.a. is really concerned according to the f.a.a., one million drones are expected to be sold by this christmas. one million drones under christmas trees, 19 different models in wal-mart fr.

ap pilots spotted drones, 650 drone sightings by pilots in the first seven months of this year. that's up five times versus 2014. so, here is the issue, the real paush is hobbyists are buying drones. you're not supposed to fly above 400 feet if you're near the airport. they can't fine the operator if you're going to do that. chuck schumer is saying they may demand, may change the law, the law to put in technology into drones, disable drones if they come anywhere near air space or around airports. charles: a kill switch kind of thing. ashley: what's the danger, they're tiny compared to the plane, they can be sucked into the engine. >> you can't build the engines-- >> we've seen disaster with birds. flying might get comfortable with airbus gets their way. jo ling kent has more.

>> charles, look at that. charles: no folding chairs. >> it's worse. stacking chairs. airbus wants to cram more in the plane by stoacking on top of your flyers. look at that, they arrange flyers in two different levels like blocks. >> wait a minute, is that like burning beds on the airplane? >> it looks like it. what they want to do is take advantage of that normal seat, the spice above your head and take advantage of that and using, get this quote, use the unused upper lobe of the aircraft fuselage. charles: it looks like an egyptian burial-- >> you talk about the safety behind that, too, you just don't know. >> a lot of the unfriendly skies. >> isn't that the case? >> geez. >> child care, guys, costs more

than rent in a majority of states. according to the economic policy institute, it's cheaper to pay for four years of in-state college tuition than to hire a nanny for your child's earlier years. parents in bingingham new york is paying more. and pumpkin pie alert. >> 0 ex. >> if it's your favorite treat at thanksgiving you might want to start stockpiling the cans of filling. the chicago tribune, yeah, reports that thanks to record rainfall and a crop watch out back in june, the canned pumpkin manufacturer libby could produce a third less and once they're sold out, guys, that's it. >> that's it. >> oh, until the next harvest. >> that's a big deal. >> yeah, that's a big deal. and shah is saying my granddaughter turns three today. >> oh. >> hip birthday. >> i agree, the daycare center

is so expensive after the show, i'll be selling hot dogs outside of the building. >> don't have the price too high. >> thanks, jo. >> thanks, charles. >> donald trup taking a swing at george w. bush saying the iraq war, a quote, disaster, those comments are sure to upset a whole lot of folks. and russia in syria, there are reports it's intercepting u.s. military drones. more varney next.

here is what to look here. the shares opened, up $2. in the meantime, twitter shares down 20% this year, but saudi prince al waleed is raising his stakes and raised stakes already. and he's one of the richest arab world and now twitter's second largest shareholder. and a plot to sell nuclear material to isis. the latest known case in february when a smuggler sought out a buyer from isis. joining us now is navy veteran morgan ortega. i have it here, it reads like a movie plot. four times before, and they're running rough shod in maldova. >> it's a concern back when the oath union thought about what was happening. charles: back then the dirty

bomb stuff and people were talking about dirty bombs and now people are trying to facilitate this stuff. >> this goes on more behind the scenes than we're aware of. this is why you have to have human intelligence on the ground and can't rely on a signalled intelligence and what we're getting from computers and that sort of thing to know what people are doing. clearly the fbi has done an excellent job in foiling the plots. >> they say they can't get next to the king pins so they get a few low level people and keep moving on and they negotiate on the nightclubs, just like a plot out of hollywood movie. >> this is one of the reasons it's destructive. current relationship or lack thereof with russia. if the president is going to rollover and let them do what they want to syria at least they'll press for cooperation in the area. >> and i would think that now that russian troops are-- >> they are supposedly going after isis. charles: it looks like they're

dropping bombs on everyone. >> the only one that thinks that russia is going after isis is putin and trump. charles: i want you to listen to what donald trump had to say about the iraq war. >> i think he was a disaster and i think it was one of the worst decisions ever made. he has totally destabilized the middle east. had saddam hussein still abouten in charge you wouldn't have the problems you have now. charles: listen, he's talking about george bush and he says the war was a dumb move. >> thank you, captain obvious. charles: it feels like, listen, it's almost beside the fact now. >> yeah. charles: colin powell says you break it you mix it. what degree should we own it? >> the iraq war and middle east at large is a complicated region. you have to look at it, he would not have gone in when the president made the decision. fine, what would you do when

you get the intelligence. the majority of the congress, senate, democrats voted for this. what do you do when you get that sort of intelligence. charles: the president say i'm going on a hunch, i have i've got a hunch this is a bad deal, let's not do it. >> when you speak about going with good instinct that president bush put on. i was in iraq when the surge was there, a courageous act. obama inherited piece and trump needs to go after what president obama has done in the past six years, which is nothing, not president bush. charles: donald trump would increase the military and it would be intimidation factor. do you think that the bad actors would-- >> we're the strongest military in the world, i agree with mr. trump we should increase the military.

and because of sequestratiosequi agree with him there. and inhe's incredibly naive about iraq and syria. charles: not a robust start, i think it's a cloud play here. we might glean something out of that. coming up, obama administration wants to release 6,000 prisoners, officials say they they need the room and the ways that the traffic app is now said to have led a many with a to her death. it's a tragic story, more on this when varney comes back.

i just had a horrible nightmare. my company's entire network went down, and i was home in bed, unaware. but that would never happen. comcast business monitors my company's network 24 hours a day

and calls and e-mails me if something, like this scary storm, takes it offline. so i can rest easy. what. you don't have a desk bed? don't be left in the dark. get proactive alerts 24/7. comcast business. built for business. >> the obama administration is planning to release thousands

of prisoners by the end of this month, we're talking 6,000 of them going to be let go. mostly what they call nonviolent drug offenders, this is a part of an effort to reduce over crowding in a prison system. thousands more prisoners will also receive reduced sentences as well. constellation brands, hitting a new high today. looking good. a good earnings report. better than expected profits and corona beer and raised their full year guidance. unfortunately, avon, they've been beaten down this year and today, the stock is up also, but that used to be a $30 stock. an elderly couple visiting brazil through their gps app was taking them to tourist streets near rio de janeiro. instead allegedly took them on a road of the same name they were looking for, but this was in a slum where the woman, the tourist was shot dead by whom authorities believe was a local drug gang. ashley. ashley: a sad story.

charles: what do you make of it and also-- i'm sorry, that they're liable here? >> no, i don't, it's a very sad solution. they rely on gps, we hear people driving into lakes and rivers because they rely blindly on gps. they came back and said they are saddened by this, but unrealistic to take them only through safe areas. charles: and at the bottom of the thing, in tiny print. ashley: you would never read liz: what happened to the woman, she drove into the area, dangerous area in brazil. ashley: she wanted to go to a beach and instead put in the gps took her to an area where there's' a drug infested slum area where drug gang lords basically run the community and the car was fired upon and hit 20 times.

2.2million barrels. why is that important? it gives us maybe a sense of supply and demand. we had a build of over 3 million. let's bring in our oil expert, eric boling. >> 1 million more than expected. in general, the feeling is that the demand is starting to spike a little bit. the other issue is the dollar. we have this massive long term strength over the last few months. the perception is the increase

in the dollar slows down. it is very positive for oil. you see it bounce off the lows. there are certain reasons. the midwest. the east coast. houston. inventory builds do not mean much at all. sometimes it is a storage issue in oklahoma. >> any part of the country going through that whole blind changing thing? overall, the narrative is that china's economy is too slow for us to see the growth we saw an oil when they were spending money crazy. have we reached a point where they can just simply be oversold as well? >> china said that they are slowing down. it feels like the u.s. economy

is starting to pick up some of chinese growth. ours starts to pick up. you listen to presidential candidates. they are all saying four-6% growth going forward. also, unrest in the middle east. that has a huge effect. >> in the past we have seen geopolitics and oil up. the premium on oil in the past for instability in the middle east used to be huge. it is almost nonexistent right now. >> iraq or iran or iran gets involved or russia gets more involved, to u.s. shuts down a russian airplane over syria, you will see a three-four spike. putin has made a lot of accidents. iran coming online.

we have seen so many rigs go off-line here. finally starting to peak ample back in america. you have up to 4 million barrels it was just hitting at a cheaper price. going through different venues. that would be a negative. where are we going to be at the end of the year? higher or lower. i still think that the general picture for oral is lower. >> okay. thanks a lot. eric boling every day. take a look at yum brands. you know the company. taco bell. they issued a full-year profit forecast. an oxymoron in this case.

primarily in china where the stakes are claimed. they had a big scandal they are. obviously, it has not worked out for them for a long time. shifting gears for a long time. it is going to ban be and its employees from playing on any sites. the ceo of draft kings actually spoke with maria bartiromo earlier this morning. >> we are completely committed to creating an open and transparent environment. we have done everything, i think, to investigate this incident. very clearly found through evidence that we pulled, there was absolutely no wrongdoing. >> also want to remind everyone that 21st century fox is also an investor in draft kings.

joining us now is sports attorney richard roth. this is a real, real ugly situation. something that is starting to really explode on the scene. >> the way that these two companies came out. you cannot watch a football show right now. how it will play out is, they fail to do so properly. you have everyone coming in. you have eric snyderman sending letters. you have two different congressmen wanting to get into it. this is a form of gambling. >> the supreme court has said that it is not. somehow this will be considered a form of gambling down the

road. >> that was for the entire season. there was knowledge. some knowledge of football. what they have done is they are betting on one game. this may very well be a form of gambling. right now it is technically not considered gambling. the bet is on the guys you do not know. who were rookies last year. the unknown. that is the big payoff. this kid made $350,000. it is ugly. from a $25 bet. that is unheard of. 250 grand. >> using insider information at their own country. went over there. los angeles saying none of the employers would be allowed to play. >> about one hour and a half ago.

he stands behind his employees. there will be more employees. >> they come on the air in say we are not allowing any employees to bet. you know the legislature is going to comment. >> will it look the same? >> it could look the same. if they are successful. they can get over this hot. at lot of skeptical's. if you believe that there is some insider information. >> people love sports. >> very true. charles: thanks a lot. cheryl, what are you watching? yum brands. under a lot of pressure. they have problems in china.

the share of whole milk versus the rest of the department. >> i will not come on the show here and recommend that people drink whole milk. >> why not? milk has a lot of protein in it that is good for you. it has a lot of sugar in it. saturated fats, the big debate that is going on, charles, if you take out the saturated fats, what do you replace them with? we have been replacing the saturated fats with sugar. yogurt has a ton of sugar. how much sugar are you getting? you know what the body does to sugar? converts it. you have a mediterranean diet.

>> there is some evidence that whole milk prevents diseases. listen, we are going to get sugar from different sources. the defense mechanism from certain diseases. we should ignore that? >> i think that mel campbell * your immune system. they used to say drake felt it goes right into your coronary arteries. there was recently a study. it definitely increases cholesterol. it may not increase the kind of cholesterol that goes right into your arteries. milk may not be as bad for you as we thought it was. it is probably bolstering the immune system. four people who cannot get it elsewhere, milk has an advantage. recommending through, vegetables, olive oil,
