>> welcome back to open about 40 minutes away take a look at where we stand the dow industrial 84, will be following the ramifications of the debt crisis in china all day. thank you to dagen mcdowell and joe concha, right to "varney & company". i will see you tonight at 9:00 p.m. eastern for your new show america built, i'll be there. stuart thank you very much indeed, that was a nice intro and i'll take it. good morning, everyone i'm going to call this a market slide after three weeks of market losses the slide continues with a vengeance. the dow industrials are going to be down 600-point plus, s&p 75 in the nasdaq down 260-point,
9:01 am
that is a huge selloff at the heart of the problem is a company you may never heard of ever grand china second largest real estate developer it has $300 billion worth of debt, if it doesn't get a government bailout and may default and the ripples are spreading all around the world, for example goldman sachs has a piece of ever grand debt some are calling it china's lehman moment, three and a third%, big drop for a company that sighed that's not the only problem in the wall street journal janet yellen warns about the economic catastrophe if we don't raise the debt ceiling, that is pretty strong words, crypto sliding big time in percentage terms their losses are much worse than stocks bitcoin is down about 10% almost 10%, ethereum way down as well. crypto's are not a safe haven.
9:02 am
let's sum it all up, the financial markets are in turmoil this monday morning, they are sliding, you can also say that the president biden is sliding politically. the parliamentarian elizabeth macdonald said the cannot include immigration in the budget reconciliation package that's a big blow for the president just as the crowds of haitians under the bridge are more than 14000 we are fine some of them back to haiti. the president three map training dollars spending plan takes another hit, joe manchin says push it into next year end the presence in the middle of the big fight with france america did do some plumbing deal with the brits in australia killing a 60 billion-dollar deal lined up by france there furious and has within drawn is a boxer to washington, d.c. where is the president, he spent the weekend at the beach he went bike riding and answered no questions, there is more, asked
9:03 am
why the president did not acknowledge his successful spacex mission elon musk tweeted he still sleeping, the working-class designer of aoc tax the rich dress turns out to be a tax cheat and treated her employees very badly. and the enemies held indoor in los angeles without masks, california kids must wear masks in schools, celebrities not. , monday september the 20th 2021, "varney & company" about to begin ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪. stuart baby are you down, down, down. maybe we have a selloff in a half in progress right now, who better to bring in, left-hand
9:04 am
side of the screen that's a selloff, jason katz joined us, let's get to it several rapidfire questions if you can deal with if you can. is this a lehman event? >> i would characterize it as a long-term capital event than a lehman event and will see the chinese in the 11th hour step up. stuart that's what i was going to ask if beijing does not bailout evergrande, do the ripples spread and we have a global debt crisis? >> china has been tightening their grip and a variety of areas this is one place that can ill afford to do it so the odds are heavily in the favor that they step up and if they don't it could morph into a lehman like moment but there is not enough debt or leverage involved with evergrande to that materialized in my view. stuart the fed meets this week how can the fed started to taper in the middle of what may be a global financial crisis is.
9:05 am
>> ever granted a variety of other issues, the debt ceiling notwithstanding are going to likely give the fed pause this week i do not think they will announce the taper, i think it's a december event. stuart could this be a start of a correction? >> yes without equivocation, if today's market declines two plus% were at or 5% correction which we have had an 11 months and we haven't had a 10% correction in over a year and we could be getting there although i don't think it's going to get materially worse than that. stuart is there anything more to the selloff in evergreen? >> i think were in a show me market show me the earnings market everything has shifted from the micro to the macro the micro earnings are nothing short of spectacular and were done with earnings season and i went do we have to focus on everything that you mentioned in your opening not to mention
9:06 am
delta, tax regime above trend inflation reading and someone is obsessing over that we have a had a selloff likely to see the markets get wobbly, that being said, last week we saw over $60 billion shift from money market into equity the most in one year, i'm going to go back to what i said to you with all the cash on the sideline and rates remaining low and what's likely to be a very decent earning your next year stocks probably are not setting up for a lehman like moment, i'm sorry i'm the ted lasso of the market but i am optimistic that the intermediate term were gonna stabilize and move higher. stuart: ted lasso was very successful at the emmys. thank you for being here, we will see you again really soon. the president spent the weekend at his vacation home in delaware in fact i think he still there he has not left he seems to be
9:07 am
overwhelming crises are not alone in that opinion here is what chuck had to say. >> i think he has a pretty big credibility crisis on his hands because all of these problems in some ways showed up after he said something basically the exact opposite, afghanistan withdrawal was not going to be messy, the booster shots he said eight months now were not sure if anybody under 65 is going to get a booster shot, it's pretty clear we have a bigger problem than we had in years and this is in these policies have turned into becoming a magnet. >> charles h.e.r. joins us as monday morning, overwhelmed, credibility crisis, not a good time for this when there's a global financial slide, what say you. >> of course for the biden administration the real problem he's starting to lose with the media and the media has been his biggest constituency from the very beginning. the whole reason he is in the white house right now because the efforts by the media and
9:08 am
their intense distaste for the previous guy so when chuck todd notices this he's usually the last person to notice anything, you know it's a real problem and whether it's afghanistan or the catastrophe at the border were seen getting worse with the gathering of the haitians in the overpass and dell rio or you're talking about coping and a lot of people tend to give the president some leeway on something like open but president biden ran an entire campaign and say the actions of the president regarding covid he had all the answers and that he could solve this problem he has not solved it in a lot of ways it's gotten worse and he's off on vacation in delaware riding around on a bicycle and we have not gotten into the wholesituation h you've outlined so far in the show it's a pretty terrifying glimpse right now and there's no
9:09 am
indication that the guy has checked into all of this. stuart: if he pushes for three and half trillion dollars worth of spending right now i think that would be a major mistake, that is just me, thank you for being with us on an important day, see you soon i'm gonna try to look for something positive and i think i found it space civilian crew completed the three-day historic commission back on earth, shortly after they landed elon musk mocked the president, what did he say. >> elon musk was asked why joe biden didn't acknowledge the successful launch as were looking here and this is what he said, he is still sleeping, sarcasm, because in donald trump on the campaign trail called biden sleepy joe, i don't do politics but he kind of just got into them but you are looking for good news, here it is space
9:10 am
civilian launched opening up the low orbit earth for business they're good at bringing a lot of money space 6526 a year. stuart: that is good, that is good news i'll take that. >> and trillions and billions of dollars. let's take the good news and run with it the rest of the show i have to show you futures again, this is a major league selloff, the nasdaq is down 250, the dow is down 637, why don't you wrap this up tell our viewers, what is the big problem. >> the driver not the reason, the driver is china there is fears of a default by their major property developer evergreen and that is spilling over to the worldwide market their services the default has ripple effects to the other global economy but also beijing widened its content to include real estate if you have a slowdown in china which is so many commodities that impacts
9:11 am
the price of those commodities let's take a look at copper down three days in a row adding to a 4% selloff last week, aluminum prices, nickel pressures also lower today as you can see the selloff in the major stock falling as a result, that is china, here at home the debt ceiling disagreement or deadline you have a fed meeting in a calendar we have september proceeded to october, bad month for the stock market, not to mention the dow is writing the three week losing streak we have not seen that since last september, september 2020, it seems like the market is right for a pullback but something other than climbing this worry, they're going down the other side. stuart: that's a good wrap up of why we have so much red ink. let's see what the beijing authorities do. we have more on the market selloff coming up. what are voters most worried about, inflation, rising prices that's according to a new fox pool, a question who gets the

9:17 am
the dow and s&p on pace for the biggest drop since july 19, the largest decline since may 11, plenty of reading, the fox pool, 74% of voters are extremely concerned about the pandemic, let's go further than that, what are they feeling about masks and vaccine mandates speed. a majority say the mandates are effective if you look at where and how free teachers, 67% believe teachers should wear masks, 61% say vaccinate them, for workers whether government or private more than half say they should be vaccinated, what is the polls ask whether they thought the vaccine was safe 65 says safe and effective and asked whether city should require a vaccine passport for indoors, 54% approve, up to 50% last month while the number opposed. stuart: only 54% approve a
9:18 am
vaccine indoor activity. lauren: were very split were moving to being accustomed to being told what to do. stuart: what is the ceo but united airlines with a mandate for airline passengers. lauren: scott kirby said were prepared for a vaccine mandate for passengers but that could be a burden especially on the vaccinated passengers. >> i think the administration is doing admirable job of trying to find all the levers to push to get the whole country vaccinated, getting people vaccinated is a one shot and you can get a high percentage of the country as opposed to making a burden to people vaccinated every time you get on the plane they get great data and science and the we want to check everyone were prepared to do that as well. stuart: he doesn't like you buddy think it might happen. lauren: he's also mandating that is workforce 67 of the employees get vaccinated and they have to show proof of that by september 27 and the number of united employees that have quit
9:19 am
because they don't want to show that they have been vaccinated or get vaccinated, fewer than ten out of 67000. stuart: that is interesting, big news pfizer says the vaccine is safe and appears to generate a robust immune response this is from a clinical trial of kids ages 5 - 11 years old, doctor siegel is with us this morning. if this vaccine is fully approved by the government, do you recommended for children 5 . >> yes, i do and i want pediatricians involved in case-by-case, listen we mandate a lot of vaccines for five euros to go to kindergarten and were facing a ferocious virus we can't do science by press release i want to say this is a good day for pfizer and biontech 2200 kids studied and they gave one third amount of dose which should be safer and they didn't see any serious side effects. interval is too short but the
9:20 am
point is we still need the fda advisory committee on this i think it's likely you will see the vaccines available by halloween and were seen 300 kids hospitalized from covid-19, this is a really important tool, i do think it is safe and effective and here's the most important thing, we need to keep our schools open and the vaccine isn't just about protecting you is about decreasing spread, thickets a very important tool, the devastation from closing schools as an organist. stuart: are we going to cite if this vaccine is fully approved, all children must get vaccinated in order to go to school? >> i think that's a tough question, will depend on how much viruses around and normally that is a local school district or state-by-state question not one that is imposed federally, i am disturbed to see the federal government getting ahead of excuse and the president saying mandate, what you been reacting
9:21 am
to but i do think it makes a safer environment, again if there's a lot of virus in the area i want all children to have it who are going to school even at the age of five and six years old, to me it's an incredibly safe vaccine, as a physician it's a no-brainer if i had a 5-year-old i would give it to them i gave him five seconds to my 16-year-old it took me five seconds to decide it was good for my 16-year-old who also wanted to get it right away. if this data holds up, young children should get it. stuart: let me sum it up. >> it should not be necessary to be mandated, should it be necessary to be mandated. stuart: basically we are both saying and a lot of other people are saying vaccine is good and good for children if they work but no coercion, no mandate, that's a wrong way to go, are we in agreement on that. >> absolutely version does not work it causes a divisiveness
9:22 am
and resentment and comes across as bullying it's not the way to go get your pediatricians is vaccine in their office that's what i want. stuart: thank you for joining is a very important subject on a big day, thank you for being here. there is one country that has already started mass vaccination for children. lauren: is cuba as small as three years old is not mandated but is popular they have their own vaccine and they haven't shared much of the data but it does require three shots for the sovereign vaccine for adults and children, they're not sharing the data. stuart: let's get to the market we are writing all over the place were coming back a little the dow futures are down almost 700 in our ago now are down 580 was their debt buying we don't know but will take it to wall street after this.
9:23 am
9:25 am
are the things america makes out here. the history she writes in her clear blue skies. the legends she births on home town fields. and the future she promises. when we made grand wagoneer, proudly assembled in america, we knew no object would ever rank with the best things in this country. but we believed we could make something worthy of their spirit. but we believed we could make we did it again. verizon has been named america's most reliable network by rootmetrics. and our customers rated us #1 for network quality in america according to j.d. power. number one in reliability, 16 times in a row. most awarded for network quality, 27 times in a row. proving once again that nobody builds networks like verizon. that's why we're building 5g right, that's why there's only one best network.
9:26 am
9:27 am
keith fitz has been saved by the differ the last ten years and he's been right, keith fitz are you buying today's dip. >> i am starting to nibble and i'll tell you what i'm looking at this like a viking would look at all-you-can-eat buffet anybody complaining has an opportunity this week. stuart: you're gonna do buying today? >> yes i'm going to obvious and going to take it very seriously this started on hong kong and lots of people are deleveraging so i'm not in a rush but if i'm looking at some of the big names that we talked about companies are changing the world and the business case is still great odds are pretty good i'll be doing that within our, are you convinced it's a dip and not the start of a major correction. >> that is a tough call washington is up to his usual the fed about to make the move it's too early to make that judgment but you have to be flexible, nimble and long-term
9:28 am
perspective so i'm not going to cash in my chips. stuart: is today's downside action about evergrande and a possible default or is there something else going on another negative we should take in account on. >> that's a good question, the early going with evergrande about $300 billion they won twice in the last two weeks, china's lehman moment the washingtons beltway i don't know why they're allowed to go on recess if they can't do their jobs you keep kids off the playground it'll behave in a classroom why should washington be allowed any different. there are concerns about a slowdown in concerns about the variant in the masks but that a been a narrative for weeks. again we can step back and take a deep breath and look at the big companies that's where we want to focus today and as tough as that's going to be and is scary is going to be. stuart: when you say big copies are you talking about big tech, big tech, pfizer is another 11 of the keys the role of the back
9:29 am
page and it hits the front pages 30 past news, what you want to focus on is the back channels and that's where pfizer is talking about mandate or vaccines for children, medical things if you go to pediatricians and what they're gonna do with mrna technology, cancer, hiv and lot of other things that are blown off the front pages today but i think viable stories for tomorrow. stuart: are your clients calling you or messaging you saying what's going on what should i do. >> i'm getting smiley faces in emojis and this is great, what are we gonna get today what's on sale i'm getting very positive messages this morning. stuart: that's because your reputation is a debt buyer and you don't want to lose our reputation, i hope you are right and i hope it bounces up again because if it doesn't we have a problem. we will tune in regularly and see what you have to say and will be back with those real soon, thank you for joining us. stuart: let me tell you one more
9:30 am
time you have a lot of red ink after this morning, essentially i think there's maybe 90 minutes ago the dow futures were down 701 that's a low point, we bounce back a little bit from their but we're still down 567 points and the problem is evergrande real estate developer in china may go bust, it is 930 on a monday morning were not used to this but what we've got is a huge selloff right from the start, 500 points down as we speak, 541 every single one of the dow 30 that's open so far is on the downside 29 out of the 30 were waiting for one were to open, down 537 that is 1.5% 100 over 1.5%. the same with sap the drop in percentage terms down 1.6% and the nasdaq is down 1.9% i
9:31 am
imagine that big tech is not doing well this morning you can't think of any industry group that is going to do well this morning. susan is with us this morning, good morning to you the following the market is down on the chinese property fears, give us his latest before let me ask you china evergreen this is not a new concern we've been here about this for the last few months but they do have payments due this week and if they get the realization for the stock investors and global investors that china is awkward to backstop the people that have overspent which includes the second largest developer by sales evergreen. stuart: you don't think that the chinese government will bail them out. susan: it's clear that they're not quite avail them out this time around and they do have payments this week. but it's also global contagion when you have hong kong down 4% into a weekend that you can't trade in and out of stock people have to sell it when you lose money you have to take money out
9:32 am
somewhere else and that's why we see this here in the u.s. i would note there are domestic factors you have the fed meeting where people expect the tapered and interest rates to go higher earlier than anticipated and you have debt ceiling concerns and cyclicality with december september being in the year. stuart: a 500-point drop from the dow right from the start although that's not as bad as a 700 drop. susan: technicality we did move below the 50 day moving average for the s&p on friday, what that means ufc the momentum on the downside go lower. stuart: i saw you open your computer, you been checking on industry groups which have gone up in the industry group that are gone down, first of all the ones that are the hardest hit. susan: more the growth plays take a look at oil in the occidental to marathon, banks
9:33 am
are economic proxies it looks like there are growth concerns with the delta variant that means financials come down on all of this with high-tech. stuart: i'm sorry to interrupt but i'm looking at the financials if any of them hold evergreen debt and some of the big investment firms like goldman sachs they don't take a hit. >> will contagion because you do have hsbc and standard chartered bank that have the lows for the evergreen properties, have you looked at the fear gauge this is indication to the jitters on the market highest from mid-may above 20. stuart: what about morgan stanley they came out and said it's a warning for morgan stanley there warning about a destructive outcome to the bull run. susan: note that were in a bull run morgan stanley is saying their chief u.s. strategist has been cautious for the last few months heading into the fall now the market with a fork in the
9:34 am
road that there's ice and fire and he thinks the eye scenario is more likely to play out that we could see a 20% correction from here and other factors besides ever grandeur of earnings revision going down week consumer confidence, poor manufacturing numbers and he's calling for thousands for the s&p by this year, that's about 10% down we could see about 20% but a lot of investment banks which have been worrying about stocks and september. stuart: is a sister of a majorly correction or we don't know if this point and will the chinese authorities back up evergrande and stop the run, those are two questions we cannot answer but i wanted take a look at the crypto, look at them on the screen right now all of them way down, not a safe haven. susan: that is true, when you lose money in one market you have to take money out from somewhere else. they capped profits, that's what's happening here we call
9:35 am
this crypto currency down about 10%, bitcoin, ethereum in a like it's up 3000 when hit below a certain level that cascades with algorithm. stuart: you have a modest bounce back but is very modest indeed, bitcoin is up $43000. susan: and the marathons that's having an equity effect as well. stuart: down big time in terms of percentage. look at that. how about tesla i understand the head of the transportation safety board gave elon musk's company tesla some bad news about the self driving software upgrade, what is the bad news. >> tesla is not ready to rollout self driving because they can't cross the basic safety issues, elon musk saint tesla would rollout and upgrade of the new driver assist software but the ntsb says hold on this is misleading not all self driving,
9:36 am
you should keep your hands on the wheels the ntsb is investigating two dozen crashes involving tesla self driving. stuart: as we speak the dow is down about 500 points after five minutes worth of business. there is some green amongst all the red, there you have on your screen right now. susan: this was up for the double digits now it's barely up 2%. they have had some great news when it comes to their cancer drugs, colon cancer shrunk tumors more than a third of patients of the small study and they have a new ceo as well and astrazeneca if you look outperformance of the drugmakers, astrazeneca revealing strong data when it comes to the breast cancer drug in a large medical conference. look for some green there are 70 spots but there they are. stuart: will take it when we can get it, the dow was down 490 points let's take a look if there are any dow winners, drugmakers at the top.
9:37 am
there is a couple of them including on the list of the least worst performers of the dow industrial, that's how bad it is, s&p 500 winners, are there any, yes there are a few difficult viewscreen, drugmakers again. stuart: how about nasdaq winners, are there any, yes there's a few but not the big tech names, anything big? susan: pepsico, but the fact. stuart: were seven minutes in and down almost 500 points, almost 1.5% the ten year treasury yield, i believe it's moving down to 1.32%. that may help big tech, we will check that later, the price of oil -- i'm sorry gold, 1007 at $256 per ounce up just a fraction this morning, oil is down to $70.88 a barrel that's where the oil stocks and oil
9:38 am
companies are down, nat gas is on a tear down this morning but above $5, 508 to be precise. the average price for a gallon of gas is $3.20 per gallon, california still the highest at $4.39. texas the cheapest at $2.80. texas beat them on the downside. we should move. treasury secretary yellen warns the weakest pace and economic catastrophe if congress doesn't raise the debt limit. maybe that has something to do it today selloff, another crisis on the border shows no signs of slowing down will to you to del rio texas were more than 14000 migrants are packed into the bridge, phil is there with a live report. as we go to break another check of the market, is this the big correction we are looking for will the chinese backup evergreen, all good questions we will try to answer them after

9:43 am
stuart: no were not doing peloton we will bring that later, democrats are moving ahead with the vote to increase the borrowing limit, the debt ceiling, now commit lauren what is janet yellen saying if we don't, what is janet yellen saying if we don't raise the debt ceiling. lauren: she said congress raise the debt limit we are finally emerging from the pandemic, let's not plunge ourselves into a financial one, pretty strong words democrats want and expect
9:44 am
them to help them raise the debt limit and republicans are saying no way we're distancing ourselves as much as possible from the three to half trillion dollars spending package and the debt that it adds, the longer the standoff is drawn out the riskier it becomes for stocks in the riskier for consumer confidence flashed back to 2011, downgraded the u.s. credit rating because of all the drama leading up to lifting the debt limit and we could be in that situation once again. stuart: we need to bring in an economist, his name is stephen moore, what do you make of janet yellen the treasury secretary saying if were not raising the debt ceiling is an economic catastrophe, what do you make of that. >> this is pretty rich for the democrats who say they want to spend 11 chilean dollars, without a single republican vote they pass a 1.9 trillion other blue state a lot without a single republican vote and by the way can you stop saying this is a three and half trillion dollars spending bill it is
9:45 am
5 trillion there using phony accounting is a 5 trillion-dollar bill if he used honest accounting, my point the democrats could pass a debt ceiling increase tomorrow without a single republican vote, they have the votes they own the house and the senate and they own the white house there's no way republicans can stop the democrats from passing the debt ceiling to advert the financial crisis but what the democrats want is the republicans to sign on to this and basically say were proud of the debt ceiling so republicans cannot use that vote against them in november 2022 but what sense does it make to raise the debt ceiling by six and seven try get dollars when the democrat said the first thing were going to do is raise the debt ceiling and pacify trillion dollars spending bill that is economic catastrophe not the debt ceiling itself. stuart: as an economist doesn't have a grand situation default, does that worry you around the world in a lehman moment, do you worry about that.
9:46 am
>> no i worry about a massive increase, the argument would say your spending and spending a borrowing money and then blaming the bank for not raising their credit limit, come on the crisis of the debt itself, democrats want to advert a financial crisis which we all do, the way to do that is stop are weaning spending and taxing so much money, i do believe that this bill we will be debating for the next two or three months on your show is $5 trillion great society part two at the most financially irresponsible bill in at least a half of a century, it raises tax rates, increases borrowing, the green new deal, let's stop the financial crisis but not spending all this money. stuart: if we don't stop the spending, if they somehow or another agree to 2 trillion,
9:47 am
states 3 trillion suppose they agree on 3 trillion total, is that bad for the economy are good. >> you mean more government spending? stuart: yeah. >> no we should be cutting government spending, last year we had the massive borrow because we have the covid lockdown and a lot of businesses went out of operation but that crisis is over and the economy is back all we need to do is stop spending money, when a crisis is over if you look out the last 200 years in the crisis is over that's when you start paying down the debt, this is the first time in american history we have a congress that wants to spend trillions of dollars after the crisis is over, it makes absolutely no sense. stuart: all good stuff and i promise to refer as a 5 trillion-dollar. >> it my mission, 5 trillion not three and half trillion. stuart: thank you so much, senator joe manchin is asking
9:48 am
congress to delay the three and half trillion dollar package, i know it's in total 5 trillion but he wants to delay the three and half trillion. lauren: 2022, until next year axioms reporting that's what he's saying and private we need more clarity on what happened to the virus and the inflation it causes, by the way one week from today the house is set to vote on bipartisan infrastructure bill like the real infrastructure bill, the 1.9 trillion euros in the bridge is not the human infrastructure, if they vote on not only that, what happens to the three to half or $5 trillion human infrastructure bill and imperils it. a lot of numbers here. stuart: is certainly does. the taxi starting point public friday, the ceo on the show to

♪. stuart: good morning, everyone. it is 10:00 eastern. let's get straight to your money and i will tell you this right off the top, this is a sell-off or a big slide as i prefer to call it. the dow is down 400. that is 1.2%. a little perspective for the moment though. the dow is still up 12% this calendar year. still up on that basis. nasdaq is down 230 points. that's a slide. how about big tech. all of them in the red. that is pretty much true of every single industry and category on wall street. microsoft is a big loser, down about 1% there. show me the 10-year treasury.
10:01 am
the yield there is 1.32%. now this, china's second largest real estate developer is in danger of going bankrupt and that is the main reason that wall street is sliding. every grand has $300 billion worth of debt. they're having real trouble paying it off of the they're asking their own employees to pitch in. they're supposed to make an interest payment. don't know if they can make it. the big question whether the chinese government will bail them out. they may let them fail to teach investors a lessing. anyone that might have exposure to ever grand bonds they might take a big hit. cryptos, you might think they would offer some protection. they are not. they're not a safe haven. all of them down sharply so along with stocks. oil is down. if china slows because of ever
10:02 am
grand, the world close an less demand for oil. down it goes to $71 a barrel. treasury rates, raising the price, lowering the yield. all this is happening as president biden's political position seriously erodes. he is surrounded by crease sees. there are 14,000 camped under the bridge, mostly haitians. they asked for national guard troops to restore order. they got to response by the biden administration. so thousands of racial shuns are coming here. raising debt ceiling there is a vote own this. the democrats want to spend and build up debt. latest top poll shows voters top concern is inflation. eight out of 10 worried about it. voters believe biden has been a divisive, not a unifier. we have a market slide because
10:03 am
of developments in china. wall street is not helped by the president's political difficulties. the second hour of "varney" just getting started. ♪ stuart: okay. steve forbes joining us this morning. the president is surrounded by crease seasoned the market is sliding. what say you to these two events, steve? >> i think it is accumulation of bad policies over this president and you did know in the past whoo might trigger something on wall street. that is why they call them black swans, you don't know where it comes from. what is happening in china could be trigger of what is happening with all these bad policies and if the president announced today, which he wouldn't, that he would postpone the blowout spending bill, new entitlements, wreck budgets in the future you would see things turn around. if america gets its economic act together we can cope with the
10:04 am
crisis in china and the government there will mitigate it, if they let ever grand go under, they will find ways to mitigate it flooding economy or something else as they did in 2008 and 2009. the key thing comes back to us what will we do now? will congress stand up to biden? that would be great for the market and economy and global economy. stuart: a new fox poll shows inflation is the top concern of voters. 82% saying they are extremely or very concerned about it. but, steve, the fed still thinks that inflation is going to fade. so what do you make of all of this? inflation, we could all see it, we can all feel it, everybody sees it and feels it. i don't think it is going away. the fed does. what say you? >> the fed is engaging in happy talk because its chairman wants to be reappointed by the white house. that decision will be made in a few weeks. in terms of what the fed has done part of the inflation today is because the fed created too much money in 2019 and 2020 and
10:05 am
this year they have mitigated it a bit by buying bonds and putting the money out in the marketplace, hauling it back in through a device called reverse repos, reverse repurchase agreements. that number is $1.12 trillion. how long they can continue games like this to prevent a flood of money and inflation i hate to say remains to be seen. i don't think they can do it much longer especially if congress passes those terrible spending bills. in terms of recovering from the pandemic and government bad policies there, confusing policies on health care that is hurting the economy as well and preventing recovery from disruptions from the lockdowns last year. so all coming together in a bad way, the thing is, stuart it, can be kurd by some sensible policies, short term do nothing. leave it alone. leave the economy alone. stuart: that is out of the question. biden thinks he will get the, democrats will do well in the
10:06 am
elections next year if he floods the market, floods economy with free stuff like free pre-k and free college. he thinks that is political winner. i suspect like you it is a economic disaster. what say you? >> that happened in the 1970s. terrible thing with the dollar. gave inflation. people noticed higher prices. that will be more than perspective free community college in a year or two down the road. they see it now. not what might happen three or five years down the road. stuart: got it. steve forbes, thank you very much, appreciate it. >> thank you. stuart: get back to the market, i want to comment here about dip buying. we were down 700 on the futures, very low prices. some people came in and bought the dip and the market went back up again. but now, market is going back down again off 400 points if that dip buying period failed. so you're down 260 on the nasdaq. down 430 on the dow.

we have movers. start with doordash. lauren: they have a deal. customers can order alcohol through the app in 20 states that could boost checks for restaurants, right? you can see orders up as much as 30%. half a percent gain isn't of when the market is down 400. stuart: take it. lauren: this is big boost, american airlines. up 1 1/2%. so "the financial times" is reporting that the u.s. might relax restrictions for vaccinated europeans starting in november. that is good for the travel sector. stuart: okay. a bitcoin miner, big digital, is that it? lauren: big digital, big farms are riding the cryptocurrency selloff. they are moving in the direction of equity equities. bit farms is down 8%. stuart: in percentage terms the cryptos, crypto miners are off far more than stocks at this
10:08 am
point. lauren: they're not a safe haven. they are morris ski, proving to be so. not a safe haven at all. stuart: jeff sica joins us this morning, you say quote the stupidity of the biden tax plan has reached it is pinnacle. i guess you're referring to the capital gains taxes, the estate taxes, are those proposed tax increases are part of the reason for today's selloff? >> yeah. i think that and one of the things i'm specifically referring to, stuart is the increase in the corporate tax because you're talking about inflation prior, how more people are concerned with inflation than just about anything else? here you have of government, which i'm wondering if the biden administration, any of these people have taken an economics course in high school? because what's happening here is, first off, corporations do
10:09 am
not pay taxes like individuals. that's what you learn in economics. and what i see is that corporations will pass on their taxes to consumers in the form of price hikes and consumers right now need higher prices like a submarine needs a screen door. so that is what they're proposing. these companies that would reinvest in their company are now going to export jobs overseas. they're going to hire less. they will spend less, capital spending is going to decrease. so just as i think that the biden administration has reached the peak of stupidity they go to another level and last week with the fair share rhetoric that was coming out of the biden administration, it just, it just infuriated me. stuart: any there are two questions about the market which are unanswered.
10:10 am
maybe you can help us out here. number one, is this start of a real correction that takes us down five or 10%? number two, will the chinese communist party bail out ever grand and save the day in china? can you answer either question? >> stuart, one thing about the chinese government they're not big on transparency to say the least so this collapse is creating a lot of uncertainty. we're all waiting to see what china is going to do but there is another element of this. the market has been priced to perfection. it has been looking for a reason to sell off but as you mentioned earlier, stuart, this is a 300 billion-dollar chinese developer. you have a big consumer market in china will be greatly hindered if this company is allowed to collapse. then there is the whole, the whole analogy to lehman which is that what is the
10:11 am
cross-contamination risk? and a lot of people are looking at this document that came out in 2020 that talked about the exposure that they had to banks and financial institutions. you're talking about hundreds of banks, financial institutions. that's what the contagion is what the worry is now. stuart: it sure is. >> if this spreads to the banking system. stuart: time is up, jeff sica, good recall performance today. see you soon. >> thank you. stuart: turn our attention to the vaccines and the virus. an fda panel recommends pfizer's booster is it shot for certain people. who are they recommending the boos shot for. lauren: those 65 and older and immunocompromised. this is the advisory panel, fda, cdc, are meeting this week. we'll see what they do. likely they will be guided by the advisory panel. dr. anthony fauci said don't rule out the widespread roll out
10:12 am
of boosters for everybody, because in a few weeks we'll have more data. as they keep getting the data they will tweak their decisions. right now boosters for 65 and up. only are the pfizer booster, they're the only one who submitted the data but that could change. stuart: tell our viewers there is positive results for the pfizer vaccine for children age five to 11. got news this morning. lauren: by halloween we could be possibly injecting our children. stuart: the kids. the dow industrials are down nearly 500 points. 28 of the dow 30 in the red. that is a loss of 1.4%. landowners in texas sick and tired of more than 14,000 migrants remain camped under the bridge waiting to be processed. so bad, residents are is chaing away migrants from their homes. bell medical medical at the border with the latest. as the country face crisis after crisis, president biden goes for a bike ride at the beach. >> mr. president, what will you

10:19 am
camera down here right now, to give you a depth shot how many people are down here. like three football fields in lengths. upwards of 12,000 people. most are from haiti. most of them across earlier in the week. now they're just waiting to see what is going to happen to them? will they stay or be deported back to haiti. a third live perspective. a live drone again giving you another perspective how large the cam is. the federal government started repatriation flights back to haiti. that is largely single adult men going back. there will be some women and children who are processed and released into the country with notice to appear. why are there so many people down here? look at this remarkable video we shot on saturday. we were given a boat tour on the rio grand. a constant stream of hundreds of migrants crossed into mexico into the united states, walking across the dam and river. hundreds of people. it went on all day long until

10:21 am
pick up, stuart, the goal will be to change the subject for the president from issues like afghanistan. even with tensions with france you referenced before the last break. two issues like climate change, the rise of china. will be a tall task for president biden to get the attention of the world off of these foreign policy challenges that hit his administration here in recent weeks. think about how the day played out on friday. within a matter of hours first of all the pentagon admitted the drone strike in afghanistan killed a number of civilians including seven children not the isis-k terrorists who were targeted. france recalled its ambassador to the united states upset over a submarine deal made between the u.s. and australia. that was just on friday. part of the background for president biden this week. he will address the general assembly. his approval rating taken a hit. went down from a high of 56% in june in the fox poll to even 50% of the poll just came out. you look inside of those numbers. it is clear afghanistan is the reason they have gone down. listening to administration officials talk about it, that
10:22 am
shift in focus we refer to does appear to be the goal here this week. >> president biden will speak to our top priorities, ending the covid-19 pandemic, combating climate change, the climate crisis, and defending human rights, democracy and international rules-based order. all three are challenges that stretch across borders. they involve every single country on earth. reporter: there are over 100 world leaders who will be on hand. a little lower than it normally is because of covid. some speak remotely. asking their delegations lower than they normally would. the four people from each country will be allowed in the general assembly hall inscrewedding the speaker. secretary of state antony blinken will be here at some point with meeting with the uk foreign secretary. john kerry the climate envoy has
10:23 am
been seen here at the complex. again the president speaks here tomorrow. stuart. stuart: connell, thank you very much indeed. i want to bring in christian whiton on foreign policy, domestic policy and all the other stuff going on here. president biden is surrounded by crises foreign and domestic. is he up to the job? >> i think pretty clearly he is not. more importantly foreign leaders believe he is not. he ran back bringing putting an end to the trump era, putting end to some of the turbulence not just with foreign adversaries but just with allies. what has happened, anything but that has happened. i think the french are more to blame than the u.s. but we're at loggerheads with france. you have this terrible image and action coming out of afghanistan where the u.s. killed seven children and frankly lied about it until they were caught by the "new york times." and you have the collapse of u.s. power more broadly in afghanistan. they want to change the topic from this but i'm in the sure they will be able to.
10:24 am
stuart: do you think the chinese will bail out evergrande? >> i think so. there is just so much on the line. there is so much zombie debt. there are so many corporations have been allocated capital for political reasons in china. their economy depends on staunching this crisis in some way. a bail out would look very different in the united states where you may just give a company money and wipe out the equity holders. it will look more chinese. the debt holders might be wiped out. some executives may go to prison. some banks may be forced to offer loans at zero interest. things like that are more chinese than american. stuart: beijing is surrounded by crises foreign and domestic almost as much as washington, d.c.? >> you know, xi xinping orchestrated this left turn and resoundingly reversed what began under xiaoping, this idea that china gain power in tacitly
10:25 am
subdued manner. he has been very aggressive. part of it in the name of anticorruption gain control of country himself to reward himself and his predecessor's cronies. hardcore left-wing communism ultimately doesn't work t ultimately is the inefficient allocation of capital. stuart: you got that right. christian white ton. thank you, sir. appreciate it. see you soon. stuart: elon musk mocks president biden after the president neglected to comment on spacex's very successful spaceflight. we'll tell you exactly what musk had to say about that. lumber prices finally dropping. don't hold your breath they could go back up again to the old record highs. we'll tell you why after this. ♪.

10:33 am
shelves. this lumberyard has been busy because prices are coming down. they're keeping up with demand. things are getting tight as more and more contract builds start to happen. because we're seeing better prices compared to may, when those prices were very high. so what we're looking at now, a price of around $600. in may we were way higher than that. we spoke to an expert who says if you want to start a project, you better start it now. >> now is a great time to start. now is great time to get material on the grounds. i don't see it going lower again. we're back into a high volume period of time of the season. get it ordered, get it on the ground. they know they warrant to get closed in before the winter months. reporter: so the problem right now is that demand is great, that prices are climbing again, surging 39% this last month but as you can see on the screen we're doing much better today than we were back in may.
10:34 am
that is when you would have been paying $1686 for your lumber. lumber prices are one of the key reasons why new home builds have been more expensive recently. that combined with other material shortages and labor shortage, a new home will goss you 50, to $60,000 more than usual f you're looking to build a new home now is probably the time to do it because lumber prices are that low. if they move anymore they're almost definitely only moving up, stuart. stuart: how about that. matson, a fine start to your fox business and on this show. thanks very much indeed for being here. good stuff. reporter: thank you. stuart: we got numbers earlier today on homebuilder confidence. in september is inched up just a fraction. jerry how warred, the ceo of the national association of homebuilders, joins us now. homebuilder confidence inched up a little. was this because of lower lumber
10:35 am
prices, surely not? >> it had a lot to do with it, stuart. lumber prices coming down is a crucial element building new homes but the real problems that are still out there are the rest of the supply chain which is still inconsistent and unreliable. that means for everything from tools all the way to appliances. so, the demand is out there. the builders are just a little bit leery about the supply chain. stuart: president biden said he wants to build 100,000 new affordable homes, new affordable homes. i don't think you can do that unless you really change the regulations and red tape real quickly. i don't think you can do that. >> you're exactly right, stuart. what is causing the housing affordability crisis, the cost of materials, the supply chain, shortage of labor and regulations and i don't know how the president intends to address those issues but to build
10:36 am
100,000 new affordable homes in whatever markets he is talking about will be extremely difficult. i assume he is talking about some of our toughest markets like california. it is incredibly hard to build in that state right now and i hope he can pull it off. would like to work with him on it. we have miles to go before we sleep on that one. stuart: what is the easiest state to build a new home? >> the mountain west is real easy and the south. those are the two high growth areas. stuart: i will remember that. jerry howard. thanks for being here. see you again soon. >> thank you, sir. stuart: remember archer aviation? they went public last friday. today they rang the opening bell on wall street. can that stock, it is an air taxi, electric air taxi stock, that is what it is, can he do well in this kind of down market? i will ask the co-ceo adam goldstein about that. he is on the show next.

stuart: it is a september selloff or a plunge or a slide, whatever you want to call it, but the dow is down 500 points and it is getting worse on the nasdaq which is down 309 points. we're following this all through the day of course. we want some good news and got it. spacex capsule splashing down sunday. it was historic all civilian crew going around the earth, orbiting three days. give give me some good news. lauren: this is first time amateur crew. they had six months of training.
10:42 am
they made it through earth's orbit. three days orbiting planet earth. opened market for tourism. they raised $200 million in the process for st. jude's childrens' hospital. it is for charity around gee whiz as well. stuart: elon musk mocked president biden because he ignored the mission. what did he say. lauren: here is the backstory, president biden snubbed elon musk two times. first he invited general motors and ford to the white house for major ev announcement. he did not invite elon musk. probably because they do not use unionized labor and ford and gm do. if you look at 3 1/2 or five trillion dollar spending bill there, is extra tax credit for electric vehicles made in union shops f you're looking to buy a tesla, that bill goes through,
10:43 am
you don't get the extra tax benefit. so elon is mad. stuart: what a ridiculous thing. lauren: varied includes. stuart: to base a tax break on unionization, that makes no economic sense at all. lauren: that is part of the mission and the goals of the progressive party. stuart: i know that. i don't like it. >> americas perfect sense if you're looking at it like that. we'll see if it goes through. stuart: stop it. move on. great guest. show me archer aviation. down 7 1/2% today, they began trading publicly last friday. they rang the opening bell on wall street today. look who is here, cofounder, co-ceo adam goldstein. you're an electric flying taxi company. obviously not a great time to go into the market, is it? you were down last friday. you're down 7% today. you can't do much about it, can you? >> well the good news here, stuart, that we're really in this for the long haul. this is a product we're really excited to bring to the market and the technology has matured
10:44 am
to the point where we can now fly economically viable missions. regulatory environment is now in place to allow for certified vehicles and by raising the capital here and you know opening new york stock exchange itself it is really laying the groundworks here to enable us to bring the vehicles to market in 2024. stuart: just for the benefit of our viewers, what is the recharging time for an electric air taxi? >> a great question. so the way that we designed these vehicles are actually that they can fly back-to-back missions basically all day long. so if you think about a trip like manhattan to jfk or lax to pasadena, those are routes millions of people take the drives every day. they're spending 60 to 90 minutes on the car on the ground taking these trips. these are trips we can fly five to eight minutes. we do it back-to-back all day long with the vehicles. charging time typically take place between loading and
10:45 am
unloading of passengers to enable continuous flights all throughout the day. stuart: so again, you can recharge fully just as you unload the passengers and load them back on again. that implies maybe an hour you can completely recharge? >> well the good news, stuart, we're not going to use the entire battery on every flight. so we will hold a certain amount of the battery in reserves. a certain amount of the battery will hold, that will just keep there as backup as well and then we'll take the battery down, typically around 30% permission. when you go to recharge, you're basically topping off the battery every time for missions, that enables quick turnaround times here. we're talking turn around times of ten minutes or less. stuart: are you fully authorized by the faa? is your machine, equipment, all checked out? you're definitely going into the air, 2024. >> that is really great question. so the faa has been laying the groundwork over the past 10 years to enable this new industry really to come to
10:46 am
market. so we actually just announced a couple weeks ago that we received our g 1 certification basis, which is the first major milestone in the faa certification process. so we're working with the faa to continue working through the process. our goal is to be certified by the end of 2024 which we feel really confident we'll be able to do. it is wonderful working with the faa that they're really a forward thinking agency and enabling a new form of transport to market. stuart: i want to be on your first flight if i'm still around in 2024. >> we're looking for test pilots, stuart. i will tell the team, i will sign you up. stuart: let's not get crazy, adam. we'll have you on the show. best of luck with archer aviation. >> thank you. stuart: new york city updated quarantine guidance for students. what are they saying? lauren: new york city schools have been open for one week. in one week one million students go back to school.
10:47 am
384 tested positive for covid. 592 test positive for covid and 384 staff members. okay? as a result, 445 classes completely shut down in just one week. so now what new york is doing is saying if the kid has a mask on, vaccinated or not and they are three feet apart from other kids you have to close the classroom. you just have to test negative. stuart: that is a very big deal. it keeps kids in schools. it keeps schools open as opposed to shutting down every time they get a positive test. that is big, big deal. lauren: starts monday. stuart: thanks, lauren. show me the dow 30. need to get a sense of the market, as you sense from the graphic right there, left-hand side of the screen. 28 of the dow 30 are in the red. the dow industrials are down 500 points. that is 1.5%. this is a selloff, folks. state alcohol boards warning of shortages ahead of the holiday season. we'll tell you why it could be

10:53 am
energy is down 2 1/2% today, chevron, exxon are down 2%. financials also down sharply. if you look at a chart of the dow 30, goldman sachs and jpmorgan are at the bottom here. goldman, jpmorgan, are the worst performers. that links to the story in china. stuart: because goldman sachs may have some of the bonds owned by -- lauren: evergrande, ever grand cannot pay off on. that is hurts the dow because it is a dow stock. cvs are planning to hire, how many, and are they, can they do it in this market? lauren: they want to do 25,000 additional workers. they want to hire them this week because they're preparing for booster shots. people can go into the pharmacy, get a flu shot, get a covid shot and get the booster shot if that is given the green light for all americans. right now likely just for those 65 and up but that would be big business for them. and they need more workers to do that. stuart: can you get 25,000
10:54 am
workers to show up on short notice. that is not easy these days. >> you pay them more than $15 an hour. stuart: that is something to come back to work people don't like. lauren: we'll see how they do. stuart: still ahead on the program today, sandra smith, jake bequett, the owner of bobby van's steakhouse joseph smith. you have to show proof of vaccination if you want to get into a restaurant in new york city, so are his restaurants in new york city full? i will ask joseph smith. china's second largest real estate developer cannot pay its bills. that is it causing a the market slide. will beijing bail them out and help out. we'll take that on in the third hour of "varney" coming up next. ♪

absolutely everything and you see in the fox news polling, inflation those that concerned, 82% over the coronavirus pin dimmick, over afghanistan and over employment that is certainly something to keep your eye on in addition to this is a laundry list of aggressive taxes right now you have a tough tax rate combined located 62% in this country, people are looking for the safe haven in the equity market has gone on so long going up little volatility although was see the fed's next move, that's a big question. stuart: president biden is sliding politically, he is just leaving his vacation home in delaware. >> amounting crises. stuart: crises were made about him everywhere it doesn't answer

say you dakota? >> 100%, the faster that you have to take intel, when young the defense anytime you're on the defense you always have to react to situations in the level of the margin of air goes up at that point and this is what happened, this administration took our military they put them in the defensive position and we were attacked and all of a sudden they wanted to react as quickly as possible and just like with the attack and iran anytime on a drone strike is multidimensional you have to work with your allies and have to get intel way these people are out and you're trying to keep her own people safe, like i said this is a political, this is what happens when you let politics drive the tactics instead of our generals. stuart: are you still in the military or have you left completely. >> i'm not in the military.
