charlie gasparino, not surprised. charlie was ahead of a lot of folks talking about, this was being positioned not only a something donald trump was taking great interest in but potentially the people all around him taking great interest in this. very different than the people in charge right now. what can you tell us? >> i just want to point out that vlad tenev is a great entrepreneur but he gets a fee every time someone does a trade. he has a little bit of a conflict of interest in touting this, whatever we are talking about here. the digital coin, the technology behind it. what he leaves out of this equation and this is what scares me and it should scare anybody that wants to hold this to 200,000 is the blockchain technology has not kept up in terms of indi innovation with te massive speculation in digital coin. nobody i know would buy stuff on the bitcoin blockchain. that last guy you had that bryan llenas was interviewing, his miller high life, but often with dollars and cents. it's not a very facile technology r

charles: the company -- neil: than he was cut charlie gasparino rich.nvestigation. the sec was hounding them. now to see him as the second most powerful man in the world. neil: how will that work? all the personalities here. if i am donald trump, unleashed these guys, when you start trying to call the shots, he checks back with this stuff but i don't know. charles: i'm already hearing people taking bets like how long he lasts in trump's good graces. there's a lot of competing forces in trump world, the white house, lots of people with sharp ammos manifesting in a fight between scott bessent over the treasury secretary. and -- neil: the president-elect likes that. charles: i have always seen the guys that last longest to do the best in amaga world are the people who try to keep a low profile, if you think about it, people like larry kudlow, steve mnuchin, people like that did their thing, loyal soldiers but -- neil: does musk bounce off of these views and wouldn't go off on his own? charles: i don't know but here's what i would tell you. elon musk tried

we're asking brian brenberg, breitbart's john carney and charlie gasparino. talk about the chaos in economic policy. and the suddenly sour market. first or man edward lawrence, live at the federal reserve board. this kind of looks messy to me. reporter: and the dow reflecting that it was positive territory before 2:00 eastern time announcement it dropped about 1173 points from that time and settled in 1100. the fed did cut 25 bases points, federal reserve backed off that mission accomplished statement. he -- or feeling he had before the meeting, on inflation, the fed chairman said that you can't just look at two months of increase inflation, and see a trend. >> we have inflation coming down, core inflation coming to 2 1/2 next year, that is a significant progress. you see a slower path, i think that does take onboard that we tom see real progress, but we would see meaningful progress to get inflation down to that level. reporter: so now federal reserve chair back to talks about inflation adding he feels good about where they are at the moment but dropped word

what's behind the big moves, charlie gasparino. >> not me.hen you were -- when you lost your voice. liz: yes. i sounded like a frog. >> i lost my voice too as you can tell. just coming back. christian carlo could be the new crypto czar when the new committee when it's established and cftc chief and adviser to trump transition team and all things crypto. he predicted on this and almost guaranteed that the remaining sec case against ripple. remember, they're essentially like appealing the whole thing. and that he lost half and won a part but they're appealing the part they lost. he thinks the sec will drop that. that really sent tongues a weighing. liz: xrp is the native token. >> yeah, and christian carlo sated, and trust me, i follow this on the internet and the clip of him and me talking went viral in the aftermath of that. on top of that, there's new xrp etfs that both people are talking about and put all that together and there's a bull run. i will say that i think be careful here. i mean, i disagree with the sec it's a done deal. the case

charlie gasparino's here. >> we should unpack this, because this is surprising.eported as much. what trump did here, it's typical of trump, you never can say it's it's definitely an appointment until you see the press release, right? the signals clearly coming out it was chris, cftc chief, crypto dad, big propoint of the coins dub proponent. again, i never report something done deal with trumps in i see the -- unless i see the press release. apparently, they're going to create -- no word if they're going to do that crypto agency, right, that commission they were going to have, and i'm sure chris giancarlo will play a role if they do -- liz: you mean david -- oh, chris january car low. >> -- giancarlo. >> what's interesting is he's combining a.i. with it. i think that pushed this to a new direction. david sacks has been a proponent of a.i., thinks there's -- liz: he's a venture capitalist, invested in a lot of it. >> right, did a lot of to it. i think that's the theory here, that a.i. and crypto and, blockchain, which i think is even bigger hand crypto, people --

charlie gasparino joins us with what's behind this latest dust-up between musk and the sec. 's a thorn in their back. it's going to come across as a parting shot to a trump supporter. i covered the takeover of what is now x, twitter back then, and musk was kind of all over the place trying to get in and out. i'm not quite sure where the high level fraud is here. i mean, what did he do? he paid, in the end, i know he tried to get out of the deal but he paid the amount of money. investors did really well. he paid $44 billion for twitter. guess what it's worth? four, maybe. i mean, you know that. who is the victim here? so then why is gary gensler, when you know, he's barely in the office, gary gensler, right? so from his chalet somewhere, where it's the de facto headquarters of the securities and exchange commission, why does he care about this right now? so the rule of law, and he didn't dot an i or cross a t, or file paperwork, there was paperwork filing as i recall he didn't do. i mean, it's so biza. my guess is elon musk will tell him to pound sand and he'll adjudicate and

coming up charlie gasparino has more on what today's announcement really might mean for long suffering warner brothers discovery shareholders in the meantime, markets are in the red. they are still close to record highs so let's get to the floor show jpmorgan global market strategist jackmanley is here along with phil blancato. some of the red can be blamed on what we got today which is the economic data of inflation at the manufacturing level the producer price index on just about every metric, it came in hotter-than-expected so jack, when you see that, i mean, year-over-year 3%. the expectation is 2.6% so that's a big miss there and it is hot. does that concern you at all as it pertains to the stock market? >> yes, first of all happy birthday less. liz: thank you. >> wonderful news, but i do think it's important to pay attention to inflation of course and ppi in particular because those prices will feed through into what we're paying as consumers. but i am a little bit worried that we're a bit too anxious about what's going on in inflation right now and when i look at yesterday's cpi

charlie gasparino following that forking over $1 million donation. >> and to the victor go the the line general feeling, i thought the democratic ground game -- they were doing it before the election and look like internal polls turned out to be right that trump was going to win. then you saw jamie dimon of jpmorgan do a 180. he initially said he would think about working for kamala and said he would stay neutral when those polls change to. neil: not considering it. charles: they have a back channel, they do have a back channel of dialogue that goes on, larry fink was talking to trump. charles: both sides could be pragmatic, transactional. charles: didn't see the numbers. julie: google guys want to make nice, jeff baeza's next week, what do you make of that? charles: he really went after jeff bezos, all about amazon, cloud computing, defense contracts, he was mad at them about the washington post, being in his view very anti-trump, the washington post trying to move dramatically to the center as a news organization. it didn't endorse anybody. that's what you've got. i think -- you go wo

to charlie gasparino and what to make of this. a big fan of crypto, very enthusiastic about it, the president-elect coming good in. what's going on here? >> we been reporting this because of this is more of a regulatory story than bitcoin or block chain technology. this is maybe irrational but enthusiasm in the crypto community. a pretty niche crypto known as x rp is up 400%. that is more than bitcoin. this is exuberance across the board and it is regulation, trump ran on deregulating crypto. sought the crypto industry for campaign contributions, he received that, they were big supporters, might have helped him in certain places in a close election, he has a regulatory team that is much more aligned to the crypto business including the story we first foreshadowed, paul atkins who was part of the digital chamber of commerce, long-term securities lawyer in the front running to the sec chair and that announcement, this is where it gets interesting, i don't think paul atkins, knowing what i know about his background is going to say le

great seeing you, wonderful weekend, jerry baker, wall street journal, charlie gasparino with us right now. looking at the personnel and all the people donald trump is surrounding himself with but the markets have been remarkable since this election. is there a sense that they are pricing everything? charles: what is interesting is some of this is exuberance. part of it has to be air rational. bitcoin. neil: are you exuberant? charles: i am positive. we've gone from an administration that's in key regulatory posts, near socialists. they wouldn't allow logical and mende deals to go down and now you have a change in that. neil: those who police the markets. some of the names you've seen you like. charles: the trump administration is not crazy about big tech. there's going to be a burst of capitalism of its good for the markets. the whole doge thing, when paul ryan was running for vice president and as a congressman, you don't have to solve the deficit tomorrow, you have terrain it in slowly. a change in direction. this is about market expectations. if the market, the bond market is the k
