but will dish chair charlie ergen accept that ruling? charlie gasparino is a fighter, right? sources close to him say he's all but likely to challenge this thing. i mean, it's almost baked in. you can see it baked in by the statements he gave fox business and other media outlets about this ruling. remember, this was a ruling about an auction that two companies bid on spectrum back in 2015. those companies were 85% to 90% owned by charlie ergen. he tried to say they weren't his companies. fcc took a couple -- took five years but the fcc finally said they are part of your company. $3 billion of that auction, you have to make good to the federal government. if the federal government can't make up that difference, and that's where this thing is going. so here's the thing that's fascinating about this story, i think, liz, is that ergen has basically convinced the analysts that cover dish that he's really going to owe nothing in the end, that what's going to happen is this. they're going to bid on that $3 billion. the government will re-bid that $3 billion. it will get probably the

that's charlie ergen. back to you. liz: well, in my neighborhood, it's chutzpah. eighborhood it's a little different. charlie, thank you very much. okay. good to see you, charlie. thank you. good work. >>> the dow right now has just come off a new session low of, what is it, 230? 295? 296 is the latest low. we are losing steam fast. yes, boeing has completely reversed. that's part of the problem. when we come back, we will check more on that and we've got the man who back in january said the blue chip index would hit 31,000 by the end of this year. with a little more than one month left and about 1300 points to go, he's here again with another big call that you must hear. . . . when i was in high school, this was the theater i came to quite often. the support we've had over the last few months has been amazing. it's not just a work environment. everyone here is family. if you are ready to open your heart and your home, check us out. we thought for sure that we were done. and this town said: not today. ♪ ♪. liz, folks, so in the commercial break we fell 300 points f

if charlie ergen owes $3 billion.ot talking apple here in terms of cash on hand. it's a company, you know, it's doing okay but that would be a big chunk of change for its balance sheet. we should point out that ergen is likely to appeal this ruling by the fcc which has not been made public. i confirmed it through my sources. good chance he's going to lose and the reason why is because this was bipartisan. all five commissioners, i think there are two democrats on the commission right now, voted, put their numbers down on charlie ergen. big story for dish. it's a big corporate story, has a laot to do with 5g and its development. we will be following developments on this throughout the day. we have a lot on our plate with the economy and the pandemic and the potential vaccine but 5g is a huge story and charlie ergen is in the middle of it and right now, his hopes of creating a 5g carrier, major one, hit a major roadblock. back to you. neil: thank you, my friend. he's a wily character. i have a feeling he might come out
