♪ we will we will rock you ♪ we will we will rock you ♪ stuart: a little disco or dance hall. is that it? may be a generation ago it was. good morning, everyone. 10:00. let's get to the money. you will like this especially if you have dow stocks. the dow is up 300 points. i'm afraid big tech is dragging the nasdaq down off 124 points. it keeps thinking. the 10 year treasury yield hovering around 4%. now it dropped below 3. 99%. that might help big tech a little bit but it dropped below 4%. the price of oil going up, $89 a barrel, bitcoin hovering around 19 or $20,000 a coin. important news for realtors and the real estate industry, mortgage rates.

lauren: 7.08%, the highest in 20 years. should i tell you what it was a year ago? if you are thinking of refinancing, it has more than doubled. stuart: is at 7.08%? 30 year fixed rate loans, double what it was in april. thanks very much. now this. the president likes to be folksy. he wants to connect with ordinary people. kitchen table talk can bring in the votes but it can also trivialize issues. the folksy approach can dumb down on fundamental problems. the important issue of inflation. to tackle at the president is going to crack down on junk fees which he says especially hurt low income earners and people of color, you deposit a check that bounces, you have to pay a fee.

you buy a plane ticket and find your paying extra legroom without knowing it. maybe you can make the case such fees are unfair, but you can't make the case that ending them will make a serious dent in inflation. the president wants to show he's a man of the people talking about what is important. that is politics. but the kitchen table junk the conversation doesn't do much to cut inflation nor does lowering prescription drug prices which doesn't kick in until 2024. if the president wanted to tackle inflation he would have to change course for completely. drill for as much oil and natural gas as possible and pull back on his wild spending plans. to tackle inflation he has to withdraw the inflation reduction act. he's not going to do it. second hour of varney just getting started.

♪ stuart: look who is here. ben domenech, the man himself. does kitchen table talk help biden politically? >> i have to apologize for not wearing my batman outfit. i didn't know we were doing that this morning but when it comes to the issues we are talking about, the previous segment said something deep about the nature of america's concerns. if you don't have confidence in the future you look to the past, noster alger. a lot of people are nostalgic for when they didn't have the concerns they have, the nature of inflation where they had confidence in this fundamentals. to see the way after a global pandemic that upset so much about the way we live was encouraging to some.

now they are experiencing the discouragement of leadership in the white house that seems completely divorced from the reality americans face on a day-to-day basis, nothing related to junk fees. to satisfy the concerns americans have about the direction of our economy. stuart: new york governor huchul during her debate said she didn't understand why crime was such a big deal. that is beginning to hurt her seriously in the polls, lee zeldin is catching up. >> nancy pelosi couldn't believe people would vote for some of these republican candidates. when you look at the way democrats are out of touch extends to every aspect of this. it extends to the inflation side, the crime side of this, the border side of this. when you have the equivalent of an hour's worth of people going

to martha's vineyard and they say they can't handle it it is a sign how out of touch they are with the real problems americans are facing is what you will see after the wave in november and you know how bullish i am about it i think we will see the conversation shift to whether president biden should commit to running again for the presidency given how badly things are going. stuart: they are trying to reframe the debate on inflation and crime. speaker pelosi wants the democrats to be the party of public safety. did you see that? i don't think you can manage that. that is head spinning. >> it is a total one hundred 80 and you can to do that turnaround overnight and that will confront democrats after this election as they grapple with the fact the communities most concerned about crime often include the urban

communities including minority voters, who they are seen as part of their coalition. that's not the case anymore without 180 ° change. stuart: okay, batman, it is over. thanks very much. the latest of the view got into a heated debate on skyrocketing crime in new york city. take us through it. lauren: they say it is safe to roam the city and crime is just a republican talking point. >> new york is one of the safest cities in the country. >> i don't feel safe in new york. i live in the city. >> you are very young. you are 32 years old. i have been around. there were worse crime rates in the 80s. i was afraid to leave my house. lauren: because it might have

been worse in the 80s you have no right to be scared right now. everyone comparing how bad it is to have that was then. year to date major crime up 30%. transit crime is up 30%. 25 people have been pushed onto subway tracks. 8 innocent bystanders shot in new york city in the past month. should i keep going? 33%. but it is safe. i was afraid to leave my house in the 80s. stuart: we watch local news and every night we see dreadful crimes being committed on your tv screens. it is the perception, the fear that creates, the perception of crime. not the actuality of it but the perception. lauren: you could be the person who gets pushed or shot. stuart: let's move on, the markets. d d.r.where do i get 9.6%

interest with a tax break and no risk? you know how to get this. >> we have been talking about 1-year bonds, to your bonds, really good deals when you have spare cash but there is an even better place. it is called i bond. it is directly from the government. it is 9.62% interest if you get it issued in october so you only have a couple days to get in there and any american citizen, anyone with a social security number can buy them directly from treasurydirect.gov. you can only buy $10,000 worth for per person but that is for husband, wife, kids, it is a great deal and you get the interest rate locked into the next 6 months and there is very

little downside to this except you hold it for a year. i love this product. stuart: that is interesting. i want to congratulate you on lockheed martin. it was three or four weeks ago you said lockheed martin, defense contractor going places. up 20% since you said that. well done. where to from here? anymore upside potential in lockheed martin? >> there is. i love lockheed martin. the defense sector for obvious reasons, global uncertainty, i still like. i believe buying it right here after a 20% run up, it was two weeks ago, we can probably expect a little bit of a pool back. if you have money you want to put to work, a little bit of a dividend, defense upside, 20 or

$30, about 440, that's a great place to enter. stuart: we will take your advice on that, see you again soon. what is moving this morning? boeing is moving up 6%. lauren: china southern airlines scheduled domestic flights of 737 max for the end of the month. that feeling market, china, where airlines have not returned after the crashers a few years ago. stuart: talk about the travel boom, southwest airlines is writing at 3%. lauren: they forecast the demand, a lot of airlines continue in the fourth quarter, that is the end of the year. you have that holiday travel so investors are moving. stuart: service now. digital workflow. digital work flow software. lauren: connected to the cloud, doing things online. executives put out numbers,

good forecasts the executives said there is us -- there is a restraint environment but most understand you have to prioritize investing in digital transformation and they are going to do that to stay relevant. stuart: 13%, a nice again. thanks very much. ea west was escorted out of the sketchers office after arriving unannounced after his comments were released. what happened? lauren: it wasn't happening. security officers escorted him out. they don't tolerate anti-semitism. his comments because the mansion -- major fashion fallout, they are pulling their merchandise. we do not tolerate discrimination, harassment, or hate. we instructed our buying teams not to purchase this

merchandise for sale in any of our stores. adidas and their partnership, that brought in $2 million year. ye is taking this in stride, lost $1 billion in one day but still alive. the locker, the gap, peloton stopping his music streams. stuart: they all joined in to knock him off their sites. lauren: celebrity catastrophe. stuart: some circle k stores are a 1-stop shop for gas, lottery tickets, we will tell you where this is happening. restaurant owners in california outraged over restrictions on natural gas powered appliances, casting them a lot of money. we have the story. pennsylvania senate candidate john fetterman claims he always supported fracking after

natural gas production. both candidates support fracking now as a debate but they have shifted their positions. most notably fetterman. we dug up at 2018 interview in which he was clearly an anti-fracking component. we can play that for you in addition to his response in the debate the other night. >> i support fracking and i do support fracking. i don't support fracking at all and i never have. i signed the no fossil fuels money could. >> reporter: doctor vi dr. oz cited breathing problems, rashes, headaches and other health related issues around fracking sites. he said there shouldn't be any fracking until they were proper health studies done.

it strikes me, when a ceo gets new information, changes their mind because of a changing landscape and takes a new course, they are seen as wise and strong. when a politician does it they don't want to admit they changed their minds. just an observation. stuart: i knew which side you were going to come down on all along. you are all right. congressman dan meuser from the great state of pennsylvania. you represent the fracking patch in pennsylvania. four years ago fetterman opposed fracking, now he says he is okay with it. do you believe it? >> fetterman is not telling the truth. we have to watch not what these guys say about what they do because they are willing to say anything. we need coal and natural gas,

he has been particularly against it. most democrats are. look at the biden administration and the enablers in the house and senate, what they have been doing to our energy industry and the results speak for themselves. how they have an energy policy that is gas backwards. stuart: gas backwards. that is very good. how big is the fracking business in pennsylvania? i am told it is a $5 billion a year business. is that accurate? >> it is accurate and it can be doubled and it holds 400,000 jobs and many indirect positions. natural gas, drilling is safe. we have proven that and it is also the greenest of energies that exist, 50% less carbon emissions than other fossil

fuels. it is very important. the reason we have high gasoline prices is inflation, attributing 50% because of the biden administration -- they won't issue permits. we have 3400 permits the biden administration is sitting on. it is an all out assault on small banks and large banks and their investment in the energy industry. stuart: can you reverse that? suppose the republicans take the house and the senate two weeks from now. if that happens could you reverse the policy of suppressing fracking and natural gas production? >> we will work on it. we will pass bills. we will have chairmanships in energy commerce and financial services, a new speaker in kevin mccarthy. we can bring bills to the floor and pass them. there is bills associated with

the permits i mentioned called the energy independence act. we tried to bring it to the floor but nancy pelosi said no. that will release many of those permits. there are leasing prohibitions that could take place. i'm digging into the sec as i believe they are violating the laws that have existed since 1974 that protect investment because they are forcing investment banks and small banks. at a small bank yesterday in my district who says he's being threatened by the sec on what their carbon investments are. serious stuff. stuart: go at it please, come back soon. congressman dan meuser. there is an ongoing push to ban natural gas powered appliances. i find that ridiculous which is bad for restaurants.

lead to they agree. 76% of them use natural gas in the country. it is the open flame, hard to replicate and create food that tastes good. stuart: and it is cheaper. lauren: you have these states that wants to ban natural gas, 60 cities in california have taken steps to phase out appliances. when california does something other states are copycats of their energy policy. it can happen in a lot of places. stuart: forgive me for asking but when do they want to phase out natural gas? what's the timeframe? lauren: berkeley is next year in berkeley, california. stuart: to build a new property or house. lauren: that has happened. stuart: you can't -- lauren: california, colorado, new york, and washington state put measures in place that restrict buildings from having natural gas. stuart: you've got to power your stove with electricity. electricity is expensive and

not as good as natural gas. lauren: not if you are a chef. california is a copycat. when i was there last week doing a high gas price story they said we set the tone for the nation. we have high standards and everybody follows in line. stuart: governor newsom wants to be the president of the united states. hyundai has an electric suv that unlocks by scanning your face. how the genesis gb 60 works. we have record high inflation, border crisis and historic learning loss among students. vice president harris is focused on school buses. >> who doesn't love yellow school bus? raise your hand if you love a yellow school bus. stuart: 12 days to the midterms i think she's missing the mark and we will be back.

court with no hope for investors that in the near term this will be anything. stuart: look pretty dow up 440 points. i'm sure that has to do with a reading this morning on the third quarter economy expanding 2.6%. that is pretty strong and why we have the dow up 500 points better than one and 2/3%, 27 of the dow 30. i interrupted your flow. lauren: you had four components, honeywell, caterpillar and merck. earnings are showing up for the most part not for meta-but many companies. stuart: two losers rapper soft -- microsoft and apple. apple is down. i like this out of that the giant ruptured your flow. lauren: shopify, 17%.

there's a smaller than expected loss and back to normal is consumers resume normal. lauren: inflation is hitting dr pepper, and the third-quarter profit fell sharply and didn't convince anybody with their outlook so they are hit by inflation. stuart: the new genesis gv 60 is an all electric suv which unlocks the scan of your face, starts the engine going with your fingerprint. our car guy is gary gastelu, he has these things on fox square, show us how it works. >> reporter: just received a soft safety rating from the nhs but you have to get in it. this is how you do it.

move the vehicle into her parking space or out of one if it happens to be tight or difficult to get into or out of. this is getting totally botched up and it is totally my fault. hold on a second. let me give you a shot. stuart: this is live tv. >> reporter: i've done a bunch of times today and this week, you remotely start the car, lights are on and now we are going to back it up. to the parking space nearby. it makes the beeping noise because it is electric, silent, don't want to run anybody over. if you run into the back it will stop on its own. not going to try that right now. it stops and you get in, drive it, pretty cool tech. only thing, it is a great car

on the road, doesn't drive very far, 230 miles depending on the model you get but it charges very quickly. 18 minutes to 8%. as fast 7:42%. as fast as anything on the road today, the state of the art when it comes to electric cars. stuart: i am dying to see what the genesis people say to you when you walk off camera but good stuff, good luck with that car. let's go to tesla reportedly under investigation by the justice department. what for? lauren: it is a common investigation they are reportedly facing about claims that tesla has made about their self driving. self driving mode fsd means the vehicles can drive themselves but this is misleading. reuters is reporting talk of a criminal investigation. it is hard to prove. complicated by the fact that

tesla does offer warnings about the limits of their autopilot features, 100,000 people have feste, pay for it and tesla tells them to stay alert. this get settled in civil court in the end. stuart: stock is not affected. it is up today. lauren: twitter already is. stuart: the administration unveiled a plan to replace gas fueled school buses with new electric models. vice president kamala harris is excited about it. lauren: not the first time she mentioned her affinity are old-fashioned yellow school buses. he or she is in the seattle. >> who doesn't love a yellow school bus? raise your hand if you love a yellow school bus. there is something about -- most of us, many of us went to school on the yellow school bus. is part of the last algia and

memory of excitement and joy of going to school. lauren: i don't know what to say. may be the focus should be on education but they are putting us on any quality. the first billion dollars of the epa grants is getting cold out. they are going to buy 2400 buses most of which will be electric. the administration says, you did not hear it in that soundbite, this is to help communities overburdened by air pollution so that is the focus. i would rather hear about education. stuart: we often turn to teenagers to help us with technology but even they are susceptible to scams. we will tell you how much was lost. another rail union rejected a labor deal broken by the administration. how will this affect the holiday shopping season if they go to a strike?

railway signal men voted the contract out, the second union to say no on this contract, the brotherhood of maintenance employees that voted the contract down. the white house press secretary says these folks don't mean a strike will be imminent, putting a positive spin on it, there's a cooling-off period until after the midterm elections to allow negotiations to continue. something the labor secretary worked out to get into this agreement. here's how the white house characterized it. >> the unions that have not ratified and railroad employers agreed to a cooling-off period that extends into november giving them adequate time to continue their work and ensuring our economy is under no immediate threat. the president remains focused on protecting america's families, farms and businesses by avoiding a shutdown. >> reporter: four unions are yet to vote, 6 have said yes so far.

we have two and no foul up. november 19th is the first day unions can strike. a strike could cost the us economy $2 billion a day. the railway stuff will have to go on trucks. the president cannot step in and force an agreement, under the current law with congress to force in and get unions to agree to a contract if numbers of congress can't agree on that at this point. stuart: they don't care what happens as long as there's a strike after the midterm elections. >> reporter: saudi arabia asked for midterm election cuts, they asked for the rail contract at a possible strike after the midterm elections. stuart: you could call that election interference. maybe not. thank you very much, you are all right. one economist who says these rising mortgage rates crossing 7%, rising mortgage rates could cause home prices to fall dramatically.

led us to this point. the public safety fallout and erosion of scientific wildlife management nationwide. several years ago in washington state, 6055 pass, anti-hunting, band bait for large hunters. a high percentage of state voters, the practices were cruel which this was the first step in managing wildlife with ideology over biology. the vast majority of wildlife biologists express public safety concerns over predator populations that were increased and that occurred. to further exacerbate the issue, the wildlife commission took the unprecedented act of banning spring bear hunting again employing woke ideology over biology and what was the effect? 3 months later in june at 9-year-old little girl playing hide and seek was attacked by a cougar.

last saturday the department of fish and wildlife officers killed a black bear after injured a woman in a park in downtown leavenworth on the heels of another cougar attacking a child in the same community and mountain biker getting killed by a cougar in 2018. stuart: you object to town folks comes city folks creating woke rules that apply to you in rural areas. there is a clash here. >> there is a definite clash but we see an increase in washington state population, 25 to 35,000 bears and the issue is of the 7 western states washington, the smallest geographically but second population only to california who adopted these actions but if bear baiting is unethical, luring ducks and geese is unethical, is that a different

side of the same coin? how about the use of dogs to hunt pheasants and quails, is that different? stuart: you make a very good point. you did make the connection between woke politics and bear attacks. why don't you come back sometime when we have more time? you are speaking to me. i have property in rural areas and know what you are talking about. we will see you. >> appreciate the opportunity. stuart: you are tom, i am stuart. black rock headquarters in new york city storms by protesters carrying pitchforks. was blackrock -- lauren: they are investing in energy companies, $170 million, not doing enough for the environment. they adopted call ash one point, stop funding climate deaths, third day of protests,
