mark and trading options for edge, explaining it all. [closing bell rings] thanks jordan and mark. it is quite a roller-coaster day. s&p is down but just barely for the s&p. the dow, too close to call. i will see you tomorrow. >> whiplash roller coaster ride. we've got it all going. market volatility continuing. take a look at the chart on your screen. the dow logged more than 360 points swing today. fighting for gains in the final moments of trading. dow is down 10 points. we'll take it, okay? s&p and nasdaq closing in the red. well off the lows. nasdaq hit by lingering concerns over big technology regulations. i'm cheryl casone i'm in for melissa francis. >> good to see you today. i'm david asman this is "after the bell." more on the big market movers. here is what else we're covering for you. we have a busy hour ahead. what china is saying ahead of

kim jong-un's visit ahead after planned meeting with president trump in may. facebook adding new privacy settings while the cambridge analytica whistle-blower says the company could be listening to you at home or while you're at work. we have mark penn on likelihood of that. a preview of mark zuckerberg's hearing now scheduled for next month. betrayed by the fbi, american photojournalist, kidnapped and tortured by al qaeda joins us later in the hour about what he discovered about the fbi's role and latest since his harrowing escape. cheryl: back to the whipsaw markets. the dow losing steam right into the close.

we have go to nicole petallides. >> amazon such a big story. at the low the amazon was at 1386. 1386. that is a big, big move to the downside. all of this comes on the heels as president donald trump, the reports are that he is looking at their tax treatment. and that might be revised in a different way because mom-and-pop shops are getting shut down because of amazon's strength. all that gave a boost. amazon finished down $65 at 1431. how about the retailers? guess what? they pretty loved hearing trump talk. we revised consumer spending. sears up 12%.

jcpenney up 5%. a quick look at tesla. tesla sells off here. go things happening. federal regulators looking at a fatal crash from last weekend. the stock is down 7 1/2%. the second thing moody's cutting debt rating on tesla. concern about them pumping out model 3s, not getting them out fast enough of the back to you guys. cheryl: nicole, thank you very much. david: let's bring in today's panel. we have jonathan hoenig from capitalist pig hedge fund and fox news contributor. anna green, former speechwriter for president george w. bush and todd horowitz, the host of the bubba trading show. todd, let me go to you first. we had good gdp numbers, because of concern about consumer spending so why the wall street pouting? >> hi, david. markets are overbought. the strength of the dollar which

in my opinion is black swan event. if it gets too strong that kills global lending. forget about gdp. there is about the big global story and issues all over the place including china which creates a major selloff here. david: annika, wall street can be fickle. we're seeing examples of that it is very nervous right now. it could be a disconnect what is happening with the economy which seems extraordinarily strong by a lot of different measures. a lot of people are saying what president trump was saying i'm responsible for the market doing well, frankly there is a lot of evidence of him doing that, but frankly he should have associated himself with the economy than the market which can be so fickle. >> that is historically what presidents have been done, but making comments and he is tied to market performance that in ways may end up not being positive. some market reports that gained by trump have been erased by

37%. which is something he won't want to see for long term. david: jonathan, the market was doing well during obama because of what the fed was doing and printing money. the markets not doing well despite the fact economy is? >> the market, number one risk right now is not a slowing economy, it is the government. you weren't worried about necessarily barack obama talking smack about an oil company but not amazon.com. not facebook. if you take a look where the tremendous damage has been, i wouldn't let the market move for the dow kind of persuade you today. look at internal, david. almost 200 new 52 week lows. handful of 52 week highs. tesla bonds yielding more than ukraine's bond. is real worry in the technology sector. david, that is the sector that amazon, facebook, the government has in its cross-hairs.

cheryl: stay with amazon, jonathan. president trump looks like he wants to go after amazon, possibly change the tax treatment according to axios. the white house responded earlier today. listen to this. >> the president has said many times before he is always looking to create a level playing field for all businesses and this is no different. he is going to always look at different ways but there aren't any specific policies on the table at this time. cheryl: jonathan, is that enough for you as an investor? >> well it is unfortunate it is not true. also today, for example, we got word about the president's wishes for new tariffs or extended tariffs with south korea for light trucks. so i don't think as an investor you can take it as the bank that the president is looking for low, fairer taxes, equal taxes for everyone. the fact as you said, he is going after amazon. this is one of the great stalwarts of the american, the world economy. the fact that any employer that any business person has to be

worried about the president going after them, no wonder investors are selling first, asking questions later. >> $53 billion in market value shed after the report from axios even some of the statements he made to sources they have spoken to the president was actually off the mark and didn't really have the facts together with regards to say the u.s. postal service. the postal service actually benefits from amazon. he thinks amazon is hurting them. does that kind of again allay your fears about the president on this one? >> one of the things we see from president trump, he likes to get a lot of feedback, not necessarily people in the white house. he talks to friends. axios, five different people talked to him about amazon, brick-and-mortar stores being harmed by amazon. that has been a long-running narrative. what you often see his comments on the fly don't dictate his policies and his advisors weigh in ultimately. cheryl: especially todd, if there is no there there

especially whether or not amazon is benefiting. quickly i want to ask you about this, in this report he talks to a lot of his friend in real estate. he talks to a lot of his friend in real estate. amazon is killing businesses and hurting mom-and-pops shops around the country. that has heart-felt sentiment of the president even if he doesn't change policy. >> cheryl, what you're seeing here the markets have taken what amazon is doing. amazon got unfair advantage because they had more access to capital than the small business. so they systematically taken every small business and put them out of business, destroying shopping malls which is a lot of people, a lot of help, a lot of employees. amazon is a great company but they have unfair advantage to access to capital. >> can i make the point? whatever image conjures that, whatever access to capital allison has they have earned. it is american public. the people who make amazon so powerful. >> i totally disagree with you.

you're totally off base here because again the banks are not lending to the average small business. they're making the average small business go to credit cards and go to predatory lenders not lending to normal, small businesses which is real crutch and problem of lack of a free market. interest rates set by federal reserve. cheryl: you're making both fair and good points. panel will stick around. david: we want them to stick around. we like the enthusiasm of this crowd. big trade story coming out of the white house of the first america first trade deal of the administration, the south koreans agreeing to a deal that will spare them from the steel tariffs. let's go to adam shapiro at the white house with more. hi, adam. reporter: david, the white house and the administration spinning this as a victory and in some part it is when you consider the south koreans agreed to limit exports of steel to the united states, 70% of a three-year average over the last three years. that is only part of the deal. here is what sarah sanders had

to say about it. >> this is a big deal for the american automotive industry. it's a big deal for our parts manufacturers. it is a big deal for our pharmaceuticalps, ultimately a big deal and major win for american workers and american businesses. reporter: that is it one of the reasons the president tweeted earlier today the u.s. trade representative announced a deal in principle. a great deal for american workers and let's focus on our security relationship. there is potential for upcoming meeting with the north korean leader. orrin hatch chair of the finance committee, he is opposed to tariffs the administration is talking about. he said quote, the agreement in inches principle makes steps towards improved implementation and maintains the strong economic ties with our two nations. as we move forward it is imperative that the administration continue to monitor cree yeah's compliance with the agreement to benefit manufacture evers, service

providers, farmers and ranchers. some people think the deal is one for the dogs, what they got for automakers. per maker 25,000 cars. that will grow to 50,000. as critics point out, no manufacturers in the states shipped more than 11,000 cars. on oat hand it may be go, dog, go. a lot the u.s. gains in this deal. david: nice summary. our panel is back. looks like from the outside the threat of tariffs against south korea paid off here? >> it certainly brought them to the table but that is not something that surprises me. south korea has been a strong, and long-standing ally of the united states and vice versa. of course they will come, we like access to the markets. we want to be in the same category as canned at that in regards to steel. david: todd, they have been a good ally, but on the other hand according to donald trump we had a terrible trade deal. in this case according to trump we have a good trade deal, the

threat of tariffs work. i assume you like it? >> i do like it. again, all i think trump wants and all that i want is everything to be fair, equal for all parties. i think that is what he is striving for. that is what he achieved within south korea. they change ad couple of dynamics of the original deal and i think it is fair and it should be. it is better business for everybody if we have a fair, straight deal. david: jonathan, we have a trade deal for now, no tariffs for south korea. why don't you like it? >> david, is that true, as i understand it, part of the president's trade deal is extending tariffs on automobiles that were supposed to sunset, were supposed to expire for another 20 years. that is not getting rid of tariffs. david: you heard what adam said. that would apply to autos beyond the amount that usually south korea sends to us. it may not, it may not apply to them at all here. >> well, it is, if you believe that a free economy is a fair

economy, david, this is a very centrally-planned economy. so, it is hard to get behind it. i think one of the reasons that even among the south korean stocks today, you didn't see a lot of upward momentum because this is literally a figment of whim. what is government going to come up with next? hard to make plans and invest in that. david: last word from jonathan. todd and annika. cheryl: facebook falling in bear market territory. falling 20% from the last record high on february 1st. the company trying to win back trust making privacy settings more transparent and user-friendly. we have a former president of the stagwell group, a former microsoft chief security officer who helped the company through a crisis. great to have you here, mark. >> thank you. cheryl: let's start with your reaction to this change that we heard from facebook today, the latest thing that they are going

to evaluate their privacy set ises. maybe it looks like they're trying to make amend with consumers. do you think the latest issue is helping the crisis they're going through? >> i don't think any of the moves have taken root yet. i think they have a really big concern that their subscribers and right now, people typically spend about a half hour a day on facebook products, are really concerned about whether or not they're giving too much privacy. they had no idea facebook was getting as much data as turns out facebook is getting. i don't think more privacy settings which emphasize they're getting all the data will be the thing that makes the difference. cheryl: how would you advise mark zuckerberg if you were there as executives of facebook? if you were sheryl sandberg, what would you say to him? he agreed to testify in front of congress. that is an about face for him. he will not speak to british

regulators. they want to talk to him too. he is being picky and when? >> first and foremost he has it get back to his base being values, openness and authenticity. that is how he got 66% of the american public to go on facebook every day and those values are lost with this discussion what happened with cambridge analytica. cheryl: with cambridge analytica, this was basically a whistle-blower situation erupted into a crisis hitting facebook of course affecting the stock. do you think there is more out there? >> well i think, i kind of emphasize in micro trends squared, i think the future of technology is great but they have got to pay more attention to the rules of the road, private sir, ethics. i think you have in the seen beginnings of privacy with ai. i think driveless cars are a fantasy. they will no the be produced for many, many years. that is beginning to sink in.

technology will be incredible driver of innovation. they will have to look at new set of rules of the road that they will operate by. i think that is coming down the pike. think this is waking the economy and washington up to that fact. cheryl: mark, real quick, tim cook responded to this. he basically said yes, there needs to be another discussion about privacy. there needs to be another discussion what is shared from consumers to companies and if it is sold or not. do you think he is the voice that is going to change the covers? >> i do think apple has been a leader in some of these things. they did make decisions against being really a database company and instead are about selling the devices or services with a different business model. so it is easy for him to talk about it. for the database companies they will have to have more disclosure. let's face it, nobody knows their texts, emails, read, digested, scanned, so everything they said in their email from their doctor is part of an

advertising campaign. cheryl: right. >> people don't know that. they may accept it but i think the days where it is snuck under the table are coming to an end. cheryl: i think a lot of americans didn't know and i think this affected facebook the stock, the company, et cetera. mark penn, thank you very much for your time. appreciate it. >> thank you. david: how great to hear from somebody that knows what he is talking about. cheryl: been through it. david: inside of a top secret summit. what china is saying about kim jong-un's visit ahead of his meeting with president trump scheduled for may. another guy who knows what he is talking about, general jack keane is here on that. cheryl: look out below!. the latest details where and when a chinese space station may crash into earth. david: that's a problem. standing with orange county. the president applauding the oc for its decision to join a federal lawsuit against california's sanctuary lawthis as california's attorney general could start arresting oc officials for the crime of helping feds hunt down dangerous criminals. we're going to be speaking with

an orange county supervisor and the county's undersheriff next. >> california is trying to poke the president in the eye and stir up trouble. it is not good for our society, and we're tired of being the pawns. ♪ more and more people have discovered something stronger...

cheryl: we're getting breaking news in the department of justice inspector general michael horowitz just announced he will investigate alleged foreign tell gains surveillance abuses by the department of justice and the fbi. this following both attorney general jeff sessions and congress requesting this probe. we'll follow this investigation very closely. we'll bring you any updates. >> state law is state law and

it's my job to enforce state law. i will do so. >> lawsuit against the sheriff's department or arresting the sheriff? >> i think i just answered that. david: california attorney general javier becerra threaten officials in orange county who announced they will defy the new state sanctuary law to help federal agents capture criminal illegal aliens. we have don barns, orange county under sheriff. good to see you both. supervisor steele, do you feel threatened by the attorney general? >> no, not at all. it is just a threat. it is going to be really interesting pause he is going to arrest our sheriff and then jeff sessions will arrest becerra and how many people have, out of those three, who has the most police power? so it is going to be really interesting. i think it is just a threat. david: i have to continue with you for a second, supervisor.

you really think it will come down to an arrest? that is, that the attorney general of california will arrest somebody in the sheriff's department? >> i don't think so. how it is going to happen like that? i don't think that is going to really happen because the sheriff is doing whatever she can to protect our public safety and our residents of orange county. so i don't think that is really going to happen. david: well, sheriff barns, have you had to choose in the past couple weeks from the time the sanctuary law was imposed on the state, have you had to choose between following the sanctuary law of the state and the federal law that requires you to help out federal agents? >> well, no. because unfortunately sb 54 passed into law. we have to follow the law. the law is legal unless it is proven to be unconstitutional which is why we asked for and actually welcomed the lawsuit brought on by jeff sessions that

will clarify the legality of it. we think he will prevail. it will be overturned and back in the same position we were before. david: do you know, obviously the primary concern is keeping your community safe. that is why you became a sheriff. have there been instances where dangerous people have been put out on the street because of the sanctuary law? >> yes, there have. we have had several instances where that has happened. under a previously-passed legislation called the trust act, we can still, the sheriff still has the discretion to turn individuals over for very high level crimes to i.c.e. we've been continuing to do that but more than half of the individuals in our custody aren't meeting that threshold. they're very dangerous who with very sophisticated criminal histories are being released back into the community. most often back into the communities which they preyed upon before. making community less safe. david: supervisor steele, very recently we had this vial criminal, an illegal alien, he

was a cop killer in sacramento, during his sentencing he threatened to kill more police if he was let out. he said he was going to get out. i mean this is the, i'm just wondering if the people for example, in oakland who have gone as far as you can go in a sanctuary city, there is the criminal, the bald guy in the middle, would that kind of a person be let out by the sanctuary law of the state? >> of course not, because i think government's duty, first comes is public safety undersheriff don barnes will let us know. january 1st of this years until march 19th, we had 172 illegal criminals were released on the streets as a supervisor of orange county public safety comes first. i want to make sure our residents can walk on the

streets safely. that is what the sheriff does and that is what undersheriff they decide to -- david: supervisor, i'm sorry for interrupting, you heard from sheriff barnes there have been dangerous people put out on the street by the state law. >> exactly, why we have to pass this resolution. we asked our county council to file the lawsuit. david: sheriff, what happened to california? the rest of the country is shaking their head, wondering how they pass something like this. i know you guys are standing up to it. you're in the minority at least in terms of the number of counties that have going along with the state law? >> that is true. there have been attempts throughout the last several years, an attack on california's three-strikes laws passed in the '90s. beginning in 2011 with ab 109, state prisoner realignment, putting prisoners back in county

jails. prop 47 passed in 2014 which changed felonies for drug possessions and thefts to misdemeanors. we can't book those people into jail anymore. now they're amongst in our community. another law passed last year, all these decriminalization efforts happening in the state. it is making communities less safe. the one thing about the bill makes it very challenging for us, is this bill, we saw the ability, it is focused on criminals, not on the community. we do not do immigration enforcement within the community. we want to keep the criminals where they are, hold them accountable, not release them back in the community where everybody is at risk. david: supervisor, i'm afraid we got to go. what i was asking about whether there is backlash what we have seen this trend in california the past couple years, quickly if could you? >> yes they do. most of the people support what we are doing in orange county. we are very proud, we have

3.2 million people living in our county. so we are leading, hopefully other counties are joining us, that we will really go against this bad law. david: michelle steele, don barnes, best of luck to both of you. appreciate you being here. cheryl: well, two major cities hacked. details on the ransomware attacks that left atlanta and baltimore vulnerable. plus an american journalist escaping al qaeda, only to be betrayed by its own government. matt schrier joins us with his shocking story. that is coming up. >> you're saying the fbi sacrificed your safety in order to track al qaeda? >> yes. ♪ and notice one another and take the time for each other. that's his gift. ♪ i'll stand by you.

♪ cheryl: held for ransom. hackers crippling two major cities in the last week, baltimore and atlanta. unclear who is behind the

attacks but won has to wonder are we prepared to thwart a cyberattack from north korea or russia? deirdre bolton is live in the newsroom with the story. >> that is a great question. both north korea and russia are responsible for the biggest attacks on record. north korea went after thousands of victims in more than 70 countries. britain, here in the u.s., we had a fedex unit affected in europe. shipping lines, telecommunications companies. it was the largest ransom assault recorded so far. following a month later russian state hackers deployed a similar ransomware package. computers were perillized in the ukraine, a lot of damage. going now to atlanta and baltimore. no one is really saying yet that any hackers have been linked to states. it is really too early to tell. so most cyber experts are assuming that the hackers were there for the cash. that doesn't make it less significant. it just happens to be a fact. atlanta described the situation there as a hostage situation.

none of the city's 8,000 workers could use their computers. in baltimore part of the city's 911 and 311 emergency systems were hacked. now the fbi is assisting local officials with both investigations. cybersecurity experts estimate that criminals made more than a billion dollars from ransomware in 2016 that is actually according to the fbi. the larger worry here, cheryl, is of course these bands of cyber criminals, sometimes they are tied to state actors but the point is in each scenario they seem to learn more from their attacks and then obviously build towards attacking larger systems. back to you. >> deirdre bolton live in our newsroom. thank you very much. david: coming up a trump-happy roseanne is back, breaking records. taking a gamble by airing a pro-trump view in liberal hollywood but will it last? that is coming up.

it is being reported in the chinese press that president xi and kjun made statements they are committed to denuclearizing north korea. that has never happened before. that is significant. clearly i certainly agree with the president's press secretary about being cautiously optimistic and we're on the right path. we are on the right path here. cheryl: well you know, no sitting u.s. president has ever met with north korean leader but at same time, or a north korean leader. but at same time kim jong-un and the regime and his father was famous for empty promises and falsehoods. can we trust what he is saying to the chinese that he will actually follow through and will the chinese push them to denuclearize? >> we don't know that answer. we know the history as you

suggest. they gone into negotiations before. they were largely ploys to buy time and get technology and get concessions that could still be the case here. we're going to find out pretty quick. you know, kim jong-un has displayed some pretty savvy diplomacy. what you think about what he has done. he opened the idea of participating in the south korea's olympics. sends his sister who become as media darling, invites the president of south korea to visit her brother in the north. he sends a couple of officials up there, particularly the chief of the intelligence service, at that meeting kim jong-un for the first time reveals to anybody outside of his own country he is willing to denuclearize. he would like to have a discussion not only with president moon of south korea but have a separate discussion with president trump. those officials come to washington, debrief the president, and the chief of the intelligence service is is the key guy here because he was covertly operating in north korea as a younger

intelligence officer for two years. i think he knows kim jong-un really well. cheryl: you know -- >> let me finish here, general. let me finish here, please, thank you. the fact is, that i believe that intelligence service chief convinced the president of the united states that there was some sincerity in kim jong-un based on his analysis of him as an intelligence officer known a lot about north korea, much more than our own intelligence service knows, and that is why the president so abruptly accepted the meeting. so, at that meeting we're going to find out though, because here is what the strategy will be for the north koreans. it is the conditions they will lay on the table that is going to be the key issue. that is going to determine whether these discussions are successful or not. number one condition, get your troops out of south korea. and we will not do that. that, where the discussion goes from there will determine whether it is successful or not. >> i had more questions but
