eastern time. wednesday, august 23. yeah, debate day in milwaukee. check the market, dow up 116 and nasdaq up 184 points. as for big tech stocks, all are heiser, no exceptions. alphabet, 132, meta 294, apple 194 and microsoft up $5 and amazon at 134. all of them up. why? look at the yield on the 10-year treasury. it is coming down. you're back to 4.23%, a significant decline from where it was a few hoursing a. now this, tonight you're going to see a vivid contrast on the debate stage, eight republicans all trying to break truffle in california, a vacationing president hold up and silent in a lake tahoe mansion. let me backtrack for a moment, president biden has just returned from a disastrous trip to see the devastation on maui.

his age and infirmity on full display. he didn't like look a man that could be president for the next six years. put that i meanage of a tired president up against the vibrant candidates on the debate stage. ron desantis, he's 44. he has young children, he's holding down the job of governor of florida. vivek ramaswamy, well, he make as point of his youth and vigor postings a video of his very energetic workout with his wife. you may not like his ideas, but he's not short of new ideas. tim scott, he's in his 50s, shows no sign of slowing down. his smile lights up the room. nikki haley, 51, she works six days a week crisscrossing the country and no sign of fatigue. tonight, when you scan the stage, you'll see relative youngsters trying to break into the top level of politics. i can't help but think the debate stage represents a changing of the guard, the country is surely ready for a new political generation. the contrast with an aging president will be obvious.

third hour of varney starts right now. stuart: the man that's about to appear on the right hand side of the screen. david avella. david, do republicans want a younger candidate? >> well, we want someone that can beat joe biden next november, stuart. and thinking about the debate tonight, the key is who comes across as authentic and can deliver very precisely a message that makes republicans say, we need to give more of a look to this particular candidate, whoever that is. whether that's vivek or desantis or any of the others on the stage tonight because coming out of tonight, the winner is the person who can keep getting attention and get some oxygen, which to date president trump has effectively controlled the

oxygen about this republican process. stuart: 52% of republican voters in iowa, 52% say they can be persuaded to support another candidate. so when you've got 52% that could be moved aside or changed their minds, that means it's still anyone's game, isn't it? >> this is still a process that someone other than donald trump could win. the key, as we just talked about is you have to be authentic. look, the reality is there isn't a single person on the debate stage that thinks donald trump should be the nominee. so when they talk tonight and certainly we'll hear president trump's name a lot tonight, they have to be honest with their positions related to those questions around donald trump and why he shouldn't be the nominee. it is also extremely important, stuart, that they tell americans and republican voters tonight why they should be the nominee, and if you think about the

winners of debates, it's been someone that can get that one portanova two lines in -- one or two li lines in that have carrid onto getting them more attention. stuart: david, would you like to say who that person might be and gets one or two lines in and breaks out and gets more attention? who do you think? >> well, they're all good -- they wouldn't be on the stage if they didn't have some success. there's a reason why desantis and vivek and tim scott have seen forward movement in the polls, the most movement in fact, because they have been able to communicate that. those are the three front runners that will be on the stage tonight. they're the ones most likely to be able to deliver a solid debate performance, though that's why we're going to watch tonight. stuart: i find it exciting. i mean, really, this is the first real big move in the 2024 election, and it's tonight and it's on fox. i think you're there. david avella, thank you for being with us this morning. i appreciate it and see you tonight. >> thank you. stuart: back to the markets,

please. tepper is here. got to talk nvidia. they report after the bell today. now, i distinctly remember, i can remember some things, i remember this, earlier this year, you said if there's one stop they could only own, one stock for one decade it would be nvidia. changing your position? >> no, not at all. i hope it sells off a bit after the earnings report today so i can buy some more. i absolutely love the company. in my opinion, stu, this is the biggest earnings report of the year, hands down. i think we can make the argument and maybe we would all agree that most of this year's market rally can be attributed to this ai hype; right? we certainly didn't rally because banks were collapsing and negative earnings growth; right? when you look at nvidia, the great thing about this earnings report tonight is all of the other so-called ai players, all they've been able to produce for us is future promises. nvidia is the first scenario where we are actually -- we have

the opportunity to see immediate results right now because they're at the front end of this. you have to buy their gpu processers in order for you to put the code on and all that stuff. this is where we actually get to see whether or not ai is blake g adopted as we hope and honestly as how much is priced into the stock already. already. stuart: you wouldn't bite stock at the time of the earnings report coming out. you'd want to wait for the call. the call tells everything, that look to the future. >> you've got to hear the future guidance. last quarter in may, the future guidance, they raised revenue estimates by 50% above where street had them at. that nevers, especially for a company of that size. i want to hear obviously future guidance, where they're going to be heading. jenson wang happens to be optimistic most of the time, that's good. i hope there's results we can stack. stuart: to be clear, nvidia runs

the ai chip industry. largely. >> i read a research report that says they have 90% share of that chip industry right now fai. stuart: and their chips are faster than anyone else's? >> they're afew years ahead of anyone else. stuart: keep it for years. >> if it sells off s what. i'm looking to hold this for the next 10 years. stuart: there's an endorsement if ever i've heard one. stay with me for the hour, tepper, i need your advice. lauren is looking at the movers and we'll start with apple. lauren: reports that the new iphone, the 15 will launch the 12th or 13th of september. lot of buzz about the charging speed. they would have a new charging sport so it would be super fast the current high end model, 14 pro max, takes like two hours to charge. stuart: really? lauren: yeah. stuart: good lord. speed thaw. come on, apple. lauren: who has time for that. stuart: is apple a stock to guy and hold for a generation?

>> i like apple. if you go back to 2010s, the biggest movement in that point in time was mobility. being able to access the center on -- internet on your phone and work from your phone and they were the leader for that for that decade and the movement right now is ai and nvidia is the leader. apple, they claim they have some ai potential, but that remains to be seen. stuart: nvidia is the company. what's the correct pronunciation? >> i don't know, i go with nvidia. i don't know if that's right or not. stuart: doesn't matter. i see on my screen, manchester united, the stock is up. what do you know? lauren: 5%. reports that a sale could be weeks away to whom, you ask? the kataris. closing the $7.6 million takeover by mid october potentially. that would be without the family keeping a stake.

stuart: premier league soccer, very valuable commodity. lauren: i would say so. stuart: huge. synopsis. lauren: this is the head of nvidia earnings. >> all nvidia today. lauren: confused on how to say it. synopsis is riding this ai wave and help in the chip design, in the semiconductor design and get 10% of the revenue from ai and that's growing. it's up 2.1%. this is a lou basanese pick. stuart: thank you, lauren. frontier airlines wants to turn your student loan debt into free flights. not sure how that works. we'll try to explain it. teachers in portland, oregon, being encouraged to stop handing out 0s as grades. the district thinks this will solve inequity in schools. critics argue it's just hurting the kids. we have the story. donald trump will turn himself into prosecutors in georgia tomorrow. the day after the republican debate. is the legal process being used

people here in new york city think this is a disservice to students. watch this. >> not giving someone a zero? ridiculous. >> if the student fails to do the assignment point-blank or doesn't hand it in, receive a zero. >> craze you not to give a zero. children learn nothing by being rewarded for not doing anything. >> we're setting them up for failure, and these are the people that are going to lead us. >> now, this is coming from the washington free beacon. this new policy portland is considering it'll eliminate zeros for grades even when a student cheats or fails to turn in an assignment and allows students to revise their work and includes no consideration for participation or effort or behavior. supports of the so called equitable grading in other school districts say it removes bias from the classroom. watch this. >> by removing the stressors of punishment for not turning in an

assignment on time or not participating in an inclass discussion, you're leveling the playing field. >> stuart, it's happening not just in oregon but schools in new york state seem to be considering a shift toward equitable grading. the school district leaders met last year about these policies and fox business exclusively obtained internal documents from that meeting. one document showing this comment was made "we're under the assumption that kids care about their grades, but kids don't care. if the goal is to educate, why not get rid of grades? now, stuart, we reached out to both portland schools and new york board for state schools and no response from them yet. portland reportedly plans to introduce equitable grading by 2025. stuart: how exciting. great report. that's fascinating stuff. tepper, this is the end of meritocracy.

the -- of course that's just one day after the big debate tonight. shannon bream joining me. is the political process being used for political processes, shannon? >> that's a great question and one that we recently asked in our polling with fox news polling, and we found that 51% of people, majority of americans do believe that they think there's some politics involved in these investigations into president trump. so he's got majority of americans that line up with him on that point. now, listen, slightly higher percentage, 53% think he did something wrong, but you've got the majority that believes regardless of that, he thinks these prosecutions for indictments are political in nature. stuart: the georgia trial date has been set, i think it's the day before super tuesday. i have to call that election interference. isn't it? >> that is what they're asking for. now, whether that's how this place out, we'll see. as you know, the former president has multiple state and federal trials and it's interesting in their request order for moving that date to

march 4. they acknowledge the former president has got all kinds of other legal angles and have to -- wranglings and have to work around each other and all these people federal and state put in requests to see these happen and they all fall in the middle of the most important part of the primary calendar for the former president, who at this point is running away with it. see what happens at the debate tonight. his team said he's running for president and can't manage all of these things. he can manage them but can't do the trial when is they're being asked for. one they've asked to put in 2026. see if the judge goes along with that. stuart: do you think voters, america in general, will think it fair that trump is, you know, got to go through all the trials right in the middle of a presidential campaign. will voters say, yeah, that's fair. that's fair. i don't think so. >> yeah, i think you're right. i don't think his base will, and the fact he's got the majority of americans and regardless of party, this isn't majority of

republicans, but regardless of party, majority of americans think some of the prosecutions are political in nature. fit withs the stump speech and the message out there that i'm trying to drain the swamp, stand between me and you and them. i'm the barrier here. that's why they'recosming after he. so if you've -- they're coming after me. the majority of americans think you're being wronged and he predicted if i get indicted, it'll help me in the numbers and he's been right at every turn. stuart: last question, we're sitting black looking at this extraordinary situation. i have to think is it possible that donald trump could go to jail? >> anything is possible. i mean, these charges, if he's convicted especially in the federal charges, they have, you know, some of these counts decades in prison assigned to them. now, most legal scholars think, he'd be a first time offenders, former president, having secret service watch over him in jail and all would be so unprecedented but, stu, we've come to realize over the last few years that we're living in

unprecedented times, uncharted territory. there would be years of appeals if any kind of conviction so that would be very far down the road if it ever happened. stuart: shannon bream, we'll be watching you on fox news sunday and we'll be watching the debate tonight. shannon, thanks for being with us tonight. >> thank yous, stu. stuart: the dow up 140 and nasdaq up 204. that's 1.5%. i'll call that a rally. next case, elon musk, he wants to change the way we can view news articles on x formally known as twitter. what's he doing? lauren: you're going to -- this is not going to go so well. he's changing how new links show up on a time line. so it will strip out the headline and the text so it just displays the lead image that limits user's ability to know more. to read a little bit of context. musk writes, you can pull it up,

if you're a journalist who wants more -- the next one, freedom toy and a higher income, public directly on this platform. so he's trying to make money and arguably sticking journalists in the eye who use x to share more about their stories. i don't think you understood that and i didn't explain it well. stuart: i don't use twitter, you see lauren: at all? stuart: no. lauren: it's a great source for current information. stuart: just call "varney & co.". >> you don't need twitter. stuart: i don't. what do you think about the changes? pulling the face throughout lauren's report. lauren: i felt it. >> elon, he's interesting. the angle he's always got, you know, it remains to be seen whether it'll be profitable. i think buying twitter in the first place wasn't meant to be profitable. but whenever you share an article, there's, you know, the text, at least the title of the article. it's autopopulated in the twitter -- auto pop lated in the

feed or quick scan. getting rid maybe it requires somebody that's re-tweeting or reposted. i don't know what they're calling it. re-tweeting a story to define it in their own words. i think that's kind of cool. maybe they have a different angle on the content in that story than whatever the author titled it. stuart: do you use twitter? >> i do. stuart: as part of your business? >> yeah, but not as active as i once was. i try to get on every day and interact with some of the people i'm connected with. stuart: okay. lauren? lauren: i don't tweet, but i do use twitter. i very rarely post a message. i think that gets you in trouble. stuart: can do. that's for sure. now this, wrestling legend hulk hogan, he says, he's sober after an addiction to pain pills. we're going to tell you the unconventional way he got clean. we're just hours from the republican debate. bill hemmer is in milwaukee breaking down the biggest issues of the night. bill joins us next. ♪
