the ceo there shared stories about conspiracies and deep state. cisco's ceo will be live on cnbc in the 6:00 hour talking about layoffs in the south bay. all right. biggest fall on the dow so far this year, as investors ran screaming for the exits out of stocks and into bonds. president trump who has tied his presidency to the performance of the stock market puts an interesting spin on it. tremendous amounts of money pouring into the united states, people want safety. he's correct on this. the united states is u.s. treasury bonds. people are pouring money into government securities which are a safe investment. he has it right. but it's a weird statement. it's like saying yes the boat sank, but we got to wear snazzy orange life vests with blinking lights on them. so money pours out of the market and heads towards those safe

notes, government bonds and safety. that will affect the yield. how much the security pays you back in the end. look at the big board in new york city at the end of the day. it's time to talk about that yield curve again. a ten-year treasury note will have a high yield. it's going to be up here, it will move back and forth a bit. the graph over time might look like that. it has to be a high payoff, you're lending money for a long time. you can also invest in a two-year note down here, apparently my board won't allow me to draw a two year note. that will pay less. this makes sense. you spend a lot of money or you put a lot to of money aside, you get a high payoff, less, lower amount of time, less payoff. enough people rush into the long bond, like the ten year. the yield, the payoff will go down naturally. they sunk low enough and the

payoff on the short-term has risen high enough this has inverted. they intersected. this right here is a good predictor of a recession. it's called an inverted yield curve. now, marcus and lauren, inverted yield curve freaks investors out. the $64,000 question is does the inverted yield curve cause the freak ju freakout or does the streakofre cause the inverted yield cufrve. the answer is yes. a pumpkin spice phenomenon is back. hormel foods is launching a new pumpkin spice spam. ham is just like spam. any way.

temperatures going into tonight. at least the a's game today will be in the evening. that's when it starts to cool off. for the rest of this week, high pressure slowly starts to move away. that will allow us to get an ocean breeze, cooler wins coming in from the storm system that will be dropping in to the pacific northwest. look at how our temperatures drop. going from 104 today to 85 on sunday. it looks like we'll start to see hotter temperatures by the middle of next week. we'll enjoy that break while it lasts. mike, you're checking in on highway 101? >> south san francisco exit from southbound 101, still reportedly blocked by a private bus. trying to find out if folks were affected by that or if it was just moving place to place. no mrob problems south of ther. the overnight construction cleared from san leandro from

the anymonimitz. there is the slowing on south 101. some flashing lights, folks will tend to slow down and shift over to the lanes to the left you have plenty of them. getting towards the bay bridge, we have some slowing, it's in the fast track lanes first, not the cash lanes. we have that backup forming as the metering lights will turn on in the next two, three minutes getting over from oakland to san francisco. getting over to san rafael, no problems here. all 31 of those expansion joints were completely retearepaired. a nice drive and ride for these transit agencies. reduce the number of cars and spare the air. >> so important. thanks a lot. coming up, teaming up. this morning we're hearing from

able to get out and were able to get the other folks out. the prisoners that were in there are also unharmed. i don't know how that happened. >> the s.w.a.t. team shot their tear gas into the home late last night. the suspect walked out and was taken into police custody. an update to a miysterious and gruesome crime in san francisco which remains unsolved one year later. 65-year-old brian egg vanished from santa clara street last summer. strangers seemed to take over his home. his neighbor and others called police for weeks reporting egg missing. when police did enter his home they found his bodice membered. police are still investigating, but egg's neighbor feels like egg has been forgotten. >> hopeless in many ways. lost a lot of faith in the police department. >> this department is committed to making an arrest in this horrific crime. >> police initially arrested

china to their ability to settle the protests without violence. the president tweeted this morning of course china wants to make a deal. let them work humanly with hong kong first. this is big. both tying hong kong into the trade war and then the president making nonviolence a condition of the trade talks. unexpected. must have taken beijing totally off guard. as for the stock market, president trump tied his presidency to the performance of the stock market and the markets are suffering. we gave you a granular look at that at 5:1524 mothis morning. dow fell 800 points yesterday. that's the biggest drop of the year. the fourth biggest ever. lots of people pointing out all four have to come during president trump's term. the bigger the dow gets, the more it can drop. percentage wise, it's not. picking a few at random, we had drops twice as big when obama or

bush were president. there was a recession there, the terror attacks. and democrat john hickenlooper, former colorado governor, will drop out of the presidential race. one of the most notable things about him is how centrist he was. 5:48 for you. trending this morning an unusual snack for sale in a veniding machine. somehow that raccoon got inside of that machine and was trapped. this happened in florida. luckily the calvary came to the rescue. the deputy and an employee of the high school where this happened were able to free the critter. no word -- >> dpe hahe did have a maszinma.

60s. mike, now you're in san francisco tracking a crash? >> getting you the of san francisco, heading down the peninsula is our slow drive. we see a little slowing for san jose on schedule. kshgsz a rshg a continued shift over the next two or three weeks, we'll key that. not much of a change for 101 southbound. it's just building now heading down towards cedar point parkway. northbound there's also slowing. four cars involved in a crash. no major injuries, but flashing lights and they may still be in the middle of the freeway. that's why the northbound commute is slowing through the area. keep that in mind. 280 is green. so south 880 is starting to recover. they're moving those crews. no delays for the bottom two numbers through oakland. the east shore freeway, 18

minutes. smooth drive through berkeley and the backup at the bay bridge. but the backup is there at the bay bridge. carpool if you can. it's a spare the air day. happening now, at least 23 people are recovering after a flight made an emergency landing outside of moscow's airport. the plane collided with a flock of birds right after it took off this morning. the birds got into both of the plane's engines causing a malfunction. new this hour details we're get being a prting about a pris south of the bay area. but first, alex rodriguez's new message to the world after that san francisco break in. we'll show you his new post. you're watching "today in the bay."
