>> by the time the market -- to
11:01 am
try to time the market perfectly, it's very difficult. inflation is a difficult gauge here. >> just since last summer, stu, we've reregistered voters at a rate of 9 to 1, republican to democrat. florida's no longer a free state, it's a red state. >> republicans winning in november, if we get a more dovish fed ors, i could see 10-20% rally for the markets from here. >> petroleum-related products, stu, permeate the entire country. if you continue to tax oil, then the supply will go down, and the price will go up. the cavalry's coming for checks and balances and change. ♪ all fired up -- ♪ i believe there comes a time when everything falls in line ♪ stuart: good morning, everybody. it is just after 11:00 eastern
11:02 am
time. it is tuesday, november the 1st already. amazing, isn't it? we've got a downside move. started with a rally, now we move lower. we got some positive news on the manufacturing sector and on the job openings sector. it was positive news suggesting that the fed would probably keep going with rate increases. that's what brought the market down. show me big tech, please. we've only got one winner, and that is meta platforms. all the rest are down. how about the 10-year treasury yield? the big tech rallied earlier this morning when the 10-year treasury yield was all the way down to 3.93%. now it's 4.06%, and the rally in big tech and nasdaq is largely gone. now this. the president is resorting to demagoguery. he knows that inflation and gas prices are hurting him politically. he's behind mt. polls, unpopular in his own party.
11:03 am
he's desperate the avoid blame for high gas prices. so in an rangly -- angry rant, he points the finger at big oil. it feels like we're in a time warp, doesn't it? democrats have been venting about wicked oil companies for decades. demagoguery is no substitute for good policy. you'd think the left would have learned that lesson by now, but they haven't. big oil hatred is like trump hatred for these guys, never goes away. baden has issued -- biden has issued a threat f they don't bring down gas prices, he'll hit them with a big winfall profits tax. does that remind you of president carter in the 1970s? it didn't work then, and it won't work now. tax hikes do not produce if more oil. he knows there's a diesel and heating oil crisis, trying to get ahead of it with a temper tantrum. they're ruining my president city and killing the planet if. that's his approach. this is what passes for energy
11:04 am
policy these days. it's desperation. and the president and his party face a serious election defeat. third hour of "varney" starts right now. ♪ stuart: pete hegseth is with me now. i don't want to talk energy with you -- >> hey, stuart. stuart: i want the talk twitter with pete hegseth. oh, yes, i the do. i believe you went back on twitter after musk took over. you're tweeting again. you got any new followers? [laughter] >> yes. it's been a very interesting 24-36 hours. so, yes, i was booted off of the old twitter -- stuart: yep. >> -- for reposting what a terrorist had said because we should know the motivations of terrorists, yet i was accused of proliferating terrorist views. i rejoined very subtly, quietly, didn't do much. the minute musk took over i went
11:05 am
from 14,000 followers to 105,000. [laughter] added 100,000 -- this is with one or two tweets. and i had hundreds, thousands of people coming to me saying i've never seen your tweets before, they've never shown up in my if news feed. now, part of that might have been that i lost all the 400,000 followers i had when i got kicked off, but the point is i don't care how many followers i have on twitter. i could care less. i don't put that on my mantle as a trophy. who cares. i just want to live in a fair platform, and that's why i got off in the first place as well. people can't see what you write. why do i want to be a part of it elon musk has a massive opportunity to provide a forum for everybody e, and twitter will explode, i think, if he does. stuart: and i think that's exactly whoo he's trying -- what he's trying to do. moving on, we've got the latest fox news power rankings. i'm sure you've seen them. looks like a comfortable win for
11:06 am
the republicans in the house, but the senate's going to be close. what do you make of that? >> i think it's going to be a lot stronger for republicans than those numbers reflect. this is good data today, and early voting, you know, will reflect a lot of that. but the sentiment and the momentum amongst republicans is real. i think that 236 number in the house is low. i think there's a lot of races in the toss-up category that will go towards republicans, even leaning d that will surprise in states like minnesota and michigan and pennsylvania. and then on the senate side, the races that are toes-up races -- toss-up races, pennsylvania, georgia, arizona, nevada all look good for republicans if you're being honest about it. in fact, the independent just dropped out in arizona. laxalt's running a good campaign in nevada. oz's opponent can't speak in pennsylvania, and herschel walker's fought his way through to -- and supports a lot of popular positions in georgia. so i think there's certainly a
11:07 am
path in both, and i think republicans will take the house. i think we could go as high as 54 in the senate for republicans in ways that'll surprise. stuart: 54 to republicans, that means they take the loss -- [laughter] they take it all. >> they take a lot. look around. look at what you just talked about. look at people's lives. this is the sanity election are, stuart, the sanity election. which part is sane and believe ares that if you're illegal, you shouldn't be here, if you're committing crimes, you should be in jail, that if you print money, it causes inflation. that your boy is a boy and your girl is a girl. it's basic stuff, not ideological, that your bank account should go up and not down. i think a lot of people in states like and minnesota, even illinois, wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania are going to vote their common sense sanity vote, and that gives me hope. stuart: are you better off now than you were two years ago? no, i'm not. >> that's it.
11:08 am
stuart: i know where i'm voting. pete, you're all right. >> you got it. stuart: i'm afraid we're heading a little further south, dow's down 200, nasdaq's down 63. mike murphy, why do you think -- if it was a republican sweep of congress, if that happened, why do you think that's good for the market? >> well, it's good for people, stuart, so it's good, we get back to some common sense. having criminals on the streets doesn't help anybody. it's for now -- and remember, that doesn't just hurt people in the area, that ultimately hurts corporations when it's no longer a crime to steal from stores. that hurts the bottom line of companies. so that trickles throughout the economy. people don't feel safe, secure, and people don't know what the next move is going to be from some of thed radical leftist leadership. stuart: what i'm more interested in doing is they get that sweep, then maybe you could turn around some of the tax increases on business. maybe you could turn around the 87,000 new irs agents. maybe you could turn around
11:09 am
energy and drilling and what we can do. i mean, that surely is what the market wants from a republican congress. >> absolutely. and one of the biggest things, stuart, would be energy, would be drilling, would be oil because i think people are realizing now it's not just the pain at the pump, it's also the fact that when we're relying on iran and russia amongst others to give us our energy, that's bad. especially when we have an abundance of it here in the united states. stuart: do you think the fed is about to pivot? because i think the market suspects that maybe they will. >> that's why you saw the selloff this morning, because we had positive data that came out, so we're back to the bad news is good news and vice versa. i do think the market is starting to read through some of the fed speak and thinking that next move could signal a last move or it will be 50 basis points after this meeting. so if that's the case, it's going to be a move higher in the markets, it's going to be positive for big tech because lower interest rates, money flows into big tech.
11:10 am
so i think that's what we're seeing. but again, stuart, i would caution, let's wait to hear from the horse's mouth. let's listen to what they have to say. stuart: yeah. the tone and all the rest -- read the tea leaves, is what you have to do. stay there, please, i want to talk to you about uber and their wonderful report later, because i know you own it. lauren, the movers, idex laboratories. lauren: this was the top of the market on the opening bell on both the nasdaq 100 and the s&p. they do diagnostics for animals, water testing. hey, pet health care is a real thing. people are going in and getting their pets tested for things, and they say that it's higher than it was before the pandemic and it should continue to grow. that end helps beef up their third quarter earnings report, so 8% gain. stuart: did you see what people are prepared to pay for their pets? lauren: uh-huh. i'm going to throw my mother under the bus, years ago our dog
11:11 am
got sick and my mom said, i love you, but not that much. we're not going to do that surgery. stuart: you did chuck your mother -- >> i know, i'm sorry. i said it. it was that expensive. stuart: okay. tell me about avis budget group -- [laughter] lauren: sorry, mom. okay, down 9.5%. huge u-turn. they see a big demand in both commercial and -- bookings, now it's down in double digits. this could if be a short squeeze because this report card was pretty good. stuart: i'm just recovering from what your mother -- lauren: i know. i don't think she's going to talk to me later. the dog was very old and had a lot of problems. stuart: goodyear tires. lauren: executives are worried about inflation still showing its ugly heading also weakness in europe and a strong u.s. dollar. so old and new challenges responsible for a 15% decline. stuart: do you have a dog in your family at the moment? lauren: no. no dog for me. i are have three children -- stuart: you can't afford a dog.
11:12 am
[laughter] lauren: and time. they say they're going to do all the responsibilities, walk the dog, feed the dog, they'll do it for two year, and then tests your responsibility. stuart: okay. i've got two dogs at the farm, okay in and they cost a fortune. it really does. >> when lauren gets a farm, she may get a dog. lauren: when i own a farm, i will own several dogs. stuart: you should. and pay for hem too. thank you, lauren. a a man -- to ping his $30 million lotto jackpot. he doesn't want his wife and kids to ever find out. what a guy. we'll tell you about that. the supreme court could soon ban affirmative action in college admissions. the protests have already begun. david webb takes that on. russia ramping up attacks on ukrainian cities, knocking out water and power lines, and there are reports that iran is preparing to send more weapons to the russians. greg palkot will have that story from kyiv next. ♪ ♪

11:18 am
missiles and drones. officials here say that most of the power and water knocked out has been restored. but we're warned the worst could be yet to come, that the ukrainian home front becomes the new front line with russia. >> the target is to completely destroy the power grid and to prevent tens of millions of ukrainians from getting electricity. >> reporter: ukraine's biggest utility chief tells us recent russian strikes damaged all the country's big power plants and much of the transmission network. millions affected monday a alone. today's restoration, the result of fast repair work. still, unless ukraine gets more air defenses and power equipment, this winter could be a very cold one. >> they can trigger a largest humanitarian catastrophe in europe. this is our mission, to recyst this e scenario. -- resist this scenario. >> reporter: and what a scenario with, stu. through more ships, by the way,
11:19 am
full of grain have left ukraine ports after russia pulled out during the weekend from the u.n.-brokered deal. they've been getting food supplies globally. ten ships left yesterday, it was feared the ships would be attacked by russia. so far moscow hanging fire and, yes, moscow getting a little help from some of their friends. new reports that iran will be shipping more of those deadly drones and missiles this way, and there have been rt reports there are even iranian soldiers showing the russians how to do it. back to you. stuart: greg palkot in the middle of it as usual, good stuff. now, as you heard from greg, some ships have left ukrainian ports bearing their grain for world markets, but there's a question as to how safe those ships will be. former u.s. ambassador to nato, kurt volker, joins me now. mr. ambassador, should we, maybe the american navy or a group of navies, be protecting these grain ships? because they are under threat. >> yeah, i do think it's a very
11:20 am
important idea, that there ought to be military escort to insure the safety the of shipping in and out of odesa and not just grain, but any kind of shipping. that being said, there are several complications with that. one of them is, obviously, that could put a direct confrontation with russian vessels to fire at these ships. second, turkey controls access to the black sea under the 1920 convention, and so you'd have to have turkey's full agreement that there's going to be these kind of military escorts. but we ought to be pushing for this in order to keep the port open and keep food funneling to the rest are of the world. stuart mr. ambassador, fox has confirmed that president biden had, quote, tense words with zelenskyy during a phone call in june. a senior official says biden believed zelenskyy wasn't grateful for the $17 billion we'd already given them. what do you make of this, sir? >> yeah. when you're being attacked by your neighbor, when thousands of people have been killed and
11:21 am
millions have been displaced, it's hard to exhibit gratitude. [laughter] it is true that the united stateses has provided more than $15 billion worth of military equipment, and it has helped save ukraine. but at the same time, zelenskyy is fighting for his life, fighting for his country's life, and i think we have to have some understanding for the situation. stuart: we understand that germany delivered sophisticated air defense weaponry some time ago in ukraine. if that's the case and it's sophisticated stuff, how come kyiv is still getting battered with, by air power? >> yeah. it's volume. the russians are lawn will. ing -- launching whole arrays of drones and missiles all at the same time, and it's very difficult with the volume of the attack for the ukrainians to shoot down everything. just the other day there were reports of a number of drones
11:22 am
that were fired, just over 50. ukrainians shot could be 44, but that means -- shot down 44, but that means 6 or 7 still goes through. and that's enough to damage the power plants and the water facilities that we're hearing about. stuart: have we stalled -- at one point the russians were really being pushed back. has the ukrainian effort stalled at this point? >> with no, i wouldn't say that. the -yard line ukrainians are still making incremental gains on the ground. the russians are not able to advance and not able to hold what they're got. that's why they've reis sorted to these medieval tactics, trying to lay siege to the civilian population of the country. it's a different game. we have to get the ukrainians more and different air defenses and make sure they can replace the transformers and power equipment that the russians are liberally targeting. stuart: are we willing to let them win? i suspect not. last word to you. >> yeah. i think we have to actually
11:23 am
change our thinking about that. we won't be secure, europe won't be secure as long as vladimir putin is out there on the prowl, so ukraine has to win for all of us. stuart: mr. ambassador, thank you for joining us. always good, thank you. i'm going to really change the subject now, and i mean it. a man in southern china dressed up in a costume to pick up his $30 million lotto jackpot. ashley, he wanted to hide his identity from his wife and children. how come? ashley: probably the best story of the day, yeah. the man keeping his $299.9 -- 29.9 million lottery jackpot a secret, why? because he's worried that the winnings might make them lazy. he told a local newspaper that he feared his wife and child would become complacent and would not work or work hard in the future. the man, identified only as mr. lee, went alone to the lottery office in southern china to claim his prize wearing, as you can see, a bright yellow
11:24 am
costume that covered everything including his head. he did donate, by the way, about $690,000 to charity but hasn't decided what to do with the rest which works out to about $23.6 million after taxes. but how many wives are now wondering in that part of the world where their husband is holding a very, very valuable jackpot ticket? [laughter] stuart: i wonder. hold on a sec, ash -- ashley: crazy. stuart: -- because i've got mike murphy with me. want to question him about morality of hiding your winnings from your wife and children. >> it's a great way to get a divorce. i mean, for a marriage to work -- i'm 22 years into it, thank god -- there has to be full disclose your. so dressing up in a yellow costume and hiding it, it's never going to work. he's going to find out. full disclosure, open book transparency is the only way to make it work. stuart: i doubt that it's the law in china that the wife gets half.

11:30 am
years. it took off from kennedy space center in florida this morning. it brought classified military satellites into space. now, just a few minutes after liftoff, amazingly, the rocket touched back down on earth again. how about that? that's spacex for you. let's check those markets, please. we're the still down, not competely -- completely out. moderate losses. twitter is now freezing some workers' access to moderation tours. it means that they're -- tools. it means they've going to limit their ability to flag what they used to say ahead of midterms. maybe the truth can get through. i think it's a wonderful thing. >> it's the a great thing. i think what elon musk wants to do is open it up to all different points of view. he wants a committee in place so that your point of view, although it may differ from mine, has a place on the twitter platform. that's not what used to be there. so if getting conservative point of view out there, you can agree with them, you cannot agree with
11:31 am
them, but they need to be on the platform. i think it's working already. stuart: sounds like they're admitting and accepting political discussion but not factual errors, and that's a good way to discriminate and get your mod if ration policy in place. >> absolutely. stuart: democrats using former president obama on the campaign trail. frequently, by the way. david webb with me this morning. does obama campaigning help the democrats? >> i don't think it does because if you look at the time period where he's out, most of those people have is already made up their minds in the base. who's he going to convince, independents? independents are driving to the grocery store, they're going to the gas pump just like democrats and republicans or non-affiliatedded voters are. who does he move? the fact is biden is hiding. biden's in his bouncy house politically in miami gardens today because it's a safe district. he's going to the new mexico. where's kamala harris? she's not on the trail. their policies have failed, and popularity will not overcome

11:33 am
miami, but it is a right-leaning, business-friendly, economic and future-forward city which is not looking at democrat progressive policies. stu tooth sure. but i do think that miami-dade county could go republican, and if it does, that's a huge blow concern. >> it's already on the way, and i'm doing my part, i can tell you that. stuart: i know you are. >> i will say obama is great, he really is as good as he ever was when he's out there, especially when you contrast it with biden. >> but when you reach back politically for someone who's the former president and you were his vice president, now, if they were out there together on an event, biden and obama, the one-two pun of. , that may have an -- punch, that may have an effect on independent voters, on voterrers who are undecided. but, again, debates have been seen now, early balloting is out, by the way, record numbers. 159% over 2018 in georgia, 20% other 2020. those are record numbers of votes cast before the debate and before obama went into the final

[laughter] stuart: okay. the supreme court -- [laughter] the supreme court may ban affirmative action in college admissions. they're considering the case right now. would you be happy with a ban, an ending of this, of affirmative action? >> yes. stuart: completely? >> completely, 100%. stuart: would you see -- >> we have evolved as a nation. sandra day o'connor's decision and maybe this would no longer be valid in 25 years, i disagreed with it from a constitutional perspective as well, but i see the point. we've evolved. get rid of the race-base admissions. you cannot have equality in treatment with inequality towards one group. stuart: as a black man, have you ever benefited from affirmative action? >> no, and i would not accept it if i didn't -- i would not
11:35 am
accept it. and if someone has judged me based on the color of my skin, that was their issue, not mine. stuart: it was supposed to be a very limited time frame. i think some supreme court justice said, look, after 25 years -- >> that was sandra day sandra day o'connor. stuart: yeah. she said in 25 years, you're not going to have it. >> our country's evolved. it's time to end this. you have equality of opportunity. the american dream is opportunity however you see it. this fake equity, these ideas of putting one group in one position, another group in another box, it's over, america. stuart: the harvard case is all about discrimination against asians who are well qualified to get in but subject to getting kicked out because of a quota. that's going to change. >> it has -- look, and the fact that it's asians, not blacks. typically you get the specter if you're black or brown, which is a ridiculous term, by the way, right? we all have a certain hue and color to us. that's just how we were born.

but again, we have gone past this. the people have gone past this. the activists, the progressives have not. they use race to divide us into boxes. americans have got to stop this. we are the most diverse country on the nation when it comes to ethnicity, to generaller. there's only one race, human. broke case is -- procreation is proof, and in the end we need to look at how we are as people, who we are as a republic and what we offer to people coming from all over the world no matter what ethnicity, what country they come from. we're diverse. our diversity is not up for debate. stuart: you need a radio talk show. >> i think so. i'm going to be ambushed after this, as you -- [laughter] stuart: david, thanks. see you later. a truly shocking 37% of small businesses could not afford to pay their rent in full haas month. ashley, where were the delinquencies concentrated? ashley: yep. no big surprise, all states with high taxes as it turns out. massachusetts, new jersey, new

york, california and, oh, yes, pennsylvania. it's according to align bl, a network of 7 million small business members. the delinquency rate has climbed, by the way, 7% from last month and is at the highest pace this year. the findings basically reflect how inflation is affecting small businesses. more than half say their rent is now at least 10% higher than it was 6 months ago. that's a lot. and if you break it down further, about 49% of restaurants were unable to pay their rent this month. that's up 13% from september. while 37% of real estate agents couldn't pay their rent. that's up from 27% last month as that market starts to struggle. supply chain problems also hurting auto dealerships and car repair shops where almost half were not able to meet their rent in october. those numbers are quite shocking. think about it, almost half cannot pay their rent just in the auto and car repair business, stu. stuart: ashley, thank you. back to you shortly.

11:43 am
voted to authorize a strike. ashley, what does that mean for holiday travel? ashley: well, nothing at this point. we're told that, don't panic, there's not going to be a whole bunch of cancellations. the pilots, though, continue to want better pay and benefits. tell that pilots have been working under a contract that was negotiated back in 2016, but efforts to hammer out a new agreement have been dragging on since 2019 including a 2-year pause during the pandemic. the airline pilots' association, which represents about 15,000 delta pilots, says 99% of those who cast their ballots backed strike authorization. under federal law pilots cannot go on strike unless a federal government board has declared an impasse in negotiations. after a 30-day cooloff period, the union can go on strike or the carrier could initiate a lockout. so a lot of steps and further down the line. now, delta says the vote is not going to affect its operation and that significant progress

to sick time for you? >> no, maria. the money doesn't equate to sick time. what brought this to the forefront for us and all of labor in the industry, actually, was the pandemic. we had members that went to work in groups of five, six, getting in vehicles together. one individual has covid, then they all get it. the railroad forces you to quarantine at home without pay. >> reporter: a strike wouldn't hit until well after election day, but the threat is now looming over the midterms. if 12 railroad unions don't ratify the deal, the truck thats could -- tracks could come to a halt as soon as no 19 which would throw the -- november 199 which would throw the supply chain into chaos. the white house is trying to aced void a railroad crisis and is warning that if a strike seems imminent, congress could step in. >> the president has said for months any shutdown would be
11:46 am
completely unacceptable. it is the responsibility of the parties involved to resolve this issue, and any idea that kicking this to congress will result in a quick or favorable outcome is deeply misdivided. >> reporter: the association of american railroads spokesperson says the claims that they don't get time off is false. in fact, they say that members of the brothered hood of railroad single men actually have generous sick leave benefits that begin after four days and and last up to 52 week withs. stuart: all right, hillary, see you soon. tesla plans to start the mass production of their cyber truck at the edge of next year. okay. that is two years later than their initial target. mike's with me still, mike murphy here. i want to talk uber. they've gone straight up. i think the stock right now is up about 12, 13%, manager like that. a very good report from them this morning. is that -- look at that, they're
11:47 am
up, way up there. is in the beginnings of a real turn around? >> it is, stuart, and it's the beginnings of the ceo's plan. he said he would get this company to be cash flow positive, so they're even to positive now x they raised their guidance next quarter where he says they're going to earn over $600 million for the quarter. that's real money. this is a company that was losing money and losing a lot of money a very short time ago. i would say, to add to that point, there's over 110 million individuals going on the uber app on a monthly basis. as they figure out how to monetize that, i think there's a lot more upside for uber from here. stuart: that's ooh real turn around. you start making money, that's good. and they're up 11%, just shy of $30 a share. good stuff. let's have a look at the market overall, show you the dow 30, give you a sense of the market. there is some selling this morning. we've got about three-quarters of the dow 30 are in the red, and the dow is down 200 points,

lives. you can now own a replica of that famous mask as part of a big movie and music memorabilia auction that's going on at the prop store. the ceo is steven lane, and he joins me now. all right, steven, how much for that? the jason mask, a lendly ca only. what's that going for? >> no, no, this is the real deal. this is one of the hero masks that was used for filming, so it's not a replica. all the detail on this actually matches up perfectly to specific scenes in the film. and this has an auction estimate of somewhere in the region of about 40,000 pounds. i think that works out probably about $43-44,000, something along those lines. stuart: a couple of months ago, it would have been about $60,000. [laughter] sorry about the british pound. christopher reeves' superman costume. is this the only costume, or is it one of many? >> no, it's not the only one,
11:54 am
but it is an incredibly rare costume. it's incredibly rare to actually find a complete set together like this. and what's really interesting about this particular costume is it's almost three films in one. they had a hand me down process during the production of the movies to save on budget and time. so the tunic was worn by christopher reeve in superman 3. and the belts and the trunk and the trousers were worn in superman 2. and then the cape was actually used inman 1 as a flying cape -- in superman 1 and repurposed for superman 2. so it's three films all in one, in one complete set. stuart: how much in american dollars? >> it's about 275,000 to sort of $550,000. stuart: okay. the "shawshank redemption" bible. >> yeah. so this is the bible here sitting right in front of me. this is the biblical prop which for what is considered and has
11:55 am
been voted the number one movie of all time. this, of course, is the bible that andy due train gets given by the warden as he enters at the beginning of the film, and he says to andy that salvation lies within. the ward withen goes to his safe, pulls this out expecting the ledger to be in there, and there's an annotation saying salvation did lie within, referring to the cutout here. so this is where the rock hammer went inside of this. and this is completely custom made, all of the details absolutely scream match to the sequences in the film, so incredibly rare. voted number one of all time. that has an auction estimate of about $165,000. stuart: worth every penny. . steven, the auction continues as of now online? >> that's right, yeah. the auction's taking mace right now online. there's over 15009 lots.
