investors to chinese tariffs. hang seng jumped and nikkei surged more than 1%. joining us now gary smith, good morning, gary. >> good morning, tracee. tracee: big question right now why are we not seeing any big reaction on the market, we had thursday, positive day, are people optimistic, what do you have to say? >> i'm not sure they are optimistic although this will be resolved in our favor in the long term. i really don't think there's anything to worry about, look, i make the analogy that this is wal-mart being concerned with projector&gamble thinks, wal-mart is such a big buy e of proctor&gamble an came out and said, they are treating us like hoodlums, probably because they have the power.

in a similar case, our import from china are 4%, 4% tracee, of gdp. we have the strength to, quote, unquote push them around, should we push them around, that's for another day i suppose. is trade war good, no. but do we have the power to quote, unquote win this, absolutely. tracee: all right. so i want to ask you, what are you watching today? any specific stocks to watch today as we are in the trade war? >> well, you know, that's interesting because i think the stocks to watch are the ones that people have talked about as being safe haven. tonight, tracee, regardless of what happens with the market you and i and others will be using netflix, ordering from amazon. i wouldn't say the stocks are totally immune because it takes buying power which might erode slightly with trade war. those are the ones to watch. if those stocks keep going up,

nasdaq in particular and those kind of tech stocks, the fang stocks, if you will, the place to go. tracee: so do you think investors are also maybe focused on something else, twef job's report coming out. do you think they are looking at that more so than what's happening with china? >> i do not, i think the job's -- at this point everybody expects strong job's report, 180,000 or so new jobs, we are going to see wages creep up. nothing in job's report that should be a surprise or even slightly a shock if you will. i think that's baked in. i also think this whole talk of trade war is also kind of baked in market. that's why you are seeing futures flat, maybe slightly up right now. tracee: thank you very much, gary. >> you bet. cheryl: a lot more coming up. the film that sent everybody out of the water.

just three months. cheryl: griff jenkins live with the latest, all eyes on secretary of state, good morning. >> that's right, hit the ground running secretary pompeo met by environment kim-jong-chul. pompeo noted it was third visit and joked that fe comes one more time he will have to pay new taxes. new video as pmp into begins two days of talk to nail down commitments made by chairman kim jong un on denuclearization amid skepticism, the regime is serious about an agreement. pompeo issued statement in advance of arrival saying he's seek to go fill in details on commitments and continue momentum towards implementation of what the two leaders promised each other and the world. in optimistic president trump praising his relationship with chairman kim at rally in montana last night. >> they said he's too tough, he's going to cause a war, it's

too tough, now they say, he's too nice, he's too nice. [laughter] >> i got along very well with chairman kim, i got along very well. that's a good thing. >> looking ahead the president also taking a shot at critics casting down on upcoming summit with russia. >> putin is fine, he's fine. we are all fine, we are people, will i be prepared, totally prepared. i have been preparing for this stuff my whole life. they don't say that. >> the president meets face to face a week from monday, pompeo meanwhile will continue onto japan, vietnam before joining the president in brussels for the nato summit, cheryl, tracee, as we watch a president with very unorthodox international approach to things. cheryl: that's certainly proven true as we watched the tariffs go into effect overnight.

griff, thank you very much. let's bring patrice, senior policy analyst and robin byo, guys, good morning. >> good morning. cheryl: so much to talk about. let's start fist patrice, pompeo's mission is to fill in details, two things he's hoping to accomplish, one he has to find out exactly where the nuclear test sites are and more details and proof from the north koreans that they are starting to dismantle the nuclear arsenal and also remains of the u.s. soldiers, 200. main objectives, what do you think the chances that he gets things accomplished? >> we have seen north korea comply when it comes to turning over hostaging or releasing, they have shown good-will gestures. likelihood that we will see the remains brought back to the united states. i think the details in terms of the agreement and flushing out what the framework should be

going forward. we have to have skepticism. we will see if north korea is willing to comply with that. i think we have seen that north korea have made lots of agreements and they've reneged on those agreements, and, you know, this is going to be important. i also think secretary pompeo is trying to figure out who his counterpart is going to be and from there, this really start of a long back and forth negotiation to bring this completion. cheryl: point person for pompeo, back in this country, rob, if you look at the highlights from several newspapers seems that the rhetoric is the landscape has changed since campaign. north korea plot to go keep arsenal. key manufacturing plants. i mean, all of this is backdrop of what history tell us that we can't trust the north koreans, robin. >> you know, there's good reason

for that as condoleezza rice has said. you can't trust them as far as you can throw them. i want to believe that we can accomplish something and if anyone can hold the feet to the fire i really do believe it's pompeo. so i'm glad that he's going over there. i think that, you know, he's really going to hold his feet to the fire and what i loved about how pompeo did this, if you're serious, send over the nukes now so that we can start the process of denuclearizing them. so, you know, i really just -- if anyone could get it done i think it's him. i think he's the right man for the job. cheryl: i would hope so as well patrice, i want to get reaction to new york times, basically quoting outside experts that have conversations with the secretary of state that he thinks that this -- this summit is set up to fail, that his work in north korea is set up to fail, he's not optimistic that the north koreans will negotiate. what do you make of that?

>> well, the sources in new york times i think there's already an agenda behind that which is to shed as much negative light on the potential for north korea to do something that previous administrations have not done. you know, i think if these sources are really accurate, then they'll certainly have some real concrete proof behind that. i don't think secretary pompeo is going the take all of the time and effort to put into negotiations to really think, o well this is going the fail. he could certainly undermine his own work in other ways. cheryl: you make a point about "the new york times", it is "the new york times", we will see where this all goes. i do -- i want you to listen, though, robin to gordon chang, one of the china experts and north koreans experts at fox news and fox business. thereon what he said about the possibility of kim jong un coming to new york. >> and you don't talk about a second summit in new york in september between trump and kim because kim will just love that.

that's legitimization, that further bolsters rule back home. that's exactly what we should not be talking about at this particular time but obviously administrations are. cheryl: robin, he says that's a horrible idea, that's being talked about. >> and i'm concerned too because it gives him the legitimization that right now we need more than just talk, we need some action that's why pompeo is going there because in order to -- for that to happen, we've got to get more action, you know, i'm a special operations veteran and want to see more accomplished before we legitimize him in that way, so i would agree with that assessment that, you know, more action less talk. cheryl: all right, we will see how the secretary of state affairs, he's pending the night which is a first for him. patrice, robin, thank you very much. >> thank you. tracee: obamacare premiums have hit all-time high despite

countless promises that they would be affordable, rising costs forcing more than 1 million americans to drop their coverage. cheryl: fox news peter doocy breaks down pricey plans taking center stage ahead of midterms. >> more than a million americans decide today drop health insurance last year once policy changes dictated that 20% of people paying for obamacare plans would not longer get government help paying for them. this year's early numbers show a slight 3% rise in obamacare sign-ups, centers for medicare, fema says, quote, these reports show that the high-priced plans on individual market are unaffordable and forcing unsub sized middle class consumer to drop coverage. different reality than the one president obama promised. >> if you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan. >> democrats believe priceyier plan are product of

republican-led majority backwards. >> gop bill for the rich and rich republican donors an shareholders in wall street and reward corporations and shipping american jobs overseas and driving up health care costs for hard-working americans. >> most popular option on the government-run marketplace is the silver plan and there are 13 states where premiums for silver plans are at least 40% higher this year than last year including senator john barraso's wyoming. >> we had lots of ranchers who had insurance that could afford but made illegal by the obamacare regulations that said, no, it's not good enough for the government. >> experts say when premium doubles an tripled the quality of care doesn't double or triple as well. >> on average $4,000 and networks are getting narrower and exclude the best doctors and best hospitals. >> control of congress could be determined by the rising health insurance premiums or at least by which party voters blame for

the price going up because the next round of premium increases will be announced right before the midterms. in washington peter doocy fox news. cheryl: well, we have got a lot more coming up this morning, tensions rising again between uk and russia oaf the latest nerve-agent poisoning. we are also watching president trump's twitter feed, is it going to make any comments ahead this time of the june job's report? is he going to tweet again? we are curious here. taking a look at futures right now, a bit of escalation in selling, dow down 42 in premarket, s&p down 2 and a half, nasdaq is down 9 and a half again. tariffs on the china 34 billion took effect, the chinese lobbied tariffs back. you are watching fbn:am. insurance that won't replace

clients? >> well, the tariffs have been well telegraphed and now that they've gone into effect, both sides have something on the negotiating table to discuss so hopefully they'll work for something in best interest of both companies, we tell our clients that, you know, we are in high-quality stocks for long-term and this is interim noise along the way. cheryl: although high-quality, big names that could be affected, boeing, caterpillar, there are large conglomerates in the country that do business in china. we are hearing stories of chinese changing shipping routes, giving american companies a harder time trying to block things up at the portment all the stories are coming out as the this begins, this doesn't worry you at all? >> well, certainly the large multinational companies have exposure in china as well as europe, canada, canada, but part

of the course, u.s. economy is doing well, jobs are doing well, it's a balancing act. cheryl: let's talk about job's then, less than 3 hours away from june's job's report, expectation 195,000 jobs, unemployment rate holding steady, 3.8%. those are the numbers. you go behind the numbers, i think the biggest question is are we going to see wagings pick up. you would think we would have more wage growth in an environment where we have such low unemployment and american companies are fighting for workers now. >> yeah, i do believe wages will be on the rise. we may not see it in the report this month but certainly more jobs available than there are workers to fill them that are qualified, so that certainly puts a premium whether it's truck drivers or computer coders, u.s. companies are competing for workers, that should lead to higher wages and those companies will need to

pass higher wagings through in higher costs and services. cheryl: that's inflation story. i want to ask you about the president, do you think investors are going to take it one way or the other if he doesn't tweet ahead of the job's report, last month he tweeted ahead of it and it was a very good report, are you looking for a sign from the president's twitter feed. >> i would like to think he won't be tweeting about the job's report before it comes out. hopefully he's been councilled not to do that. cheryl: always good to have surprise, you know, right? we like the excitement at the job's report, thank you very much. >> thank you, have a great weekend. cheryl: we will have more coverage at 8:00 a.m. tracee: coming up in sports, rhonda rousey makes ufc history and we will tell you in world cup quarter final matches start today, can belgium beat the
