right there is kiki, and right there is dom dom. i want you to watch dom dom. dom dom was tasered. >> they tased that little dog? >> look at dom dom. he fights back. this is a bad ass dog who doesn't stay down. you can't keep this dog down. dom dom is fighting to get back up. he struggles. his tail is moving. they hit him again. >> that's awful. >> are they trying to steal the dog or just injure them? >> the homeowner believes they're trying to steal the dog. look at dom dom. he gets his leg up, and then the back leg. he is finally able to walk up that ramp and get to the back door. >> this is awful. >> dom dom was not dumb dumb at all. he fought hard to get back into safety. >> he sure did. >> he did suffer some burns, but he is going to be okay. >> this dog needed some help getting out of the situation it got caught in. this was a 6-week-old puppy stuck in a pipe for 14 hours in durbin, south africa. rescue crews worked for seven of the 14 hours to get this puppy out, and this guy is bare-handed and reaching down the pipe to pull out the ost looks like the pi

dom, thank you, and welcome to you. and dr.son john, police science professor -- political science professor. thank you for being here. let's get right into this story out of ferguson, missouri. jason, let me begin with you. there's interesting facts, nonfacts coming out of this story. let's get with the one that's being asked, we don't know the officer in question. the police say it's for his own protection. what's your thoughts on that? >> disgusting. he is a public official. and if somebody who represents a public, someone who the tax payers pay for, they should reveal who he is. and if the police believe that it was a justifiable shooting. look, i understand giving police protection to the guy's family. i understand saying hey look, he's left town because we think people might be violent or dangerous, but reveal the name. the idea of not revealing the name to the tax payers who are concerned about this man's behavior is a violation of their responsibility to the people. >> dom, would you agree? >> no, i wouldn't fully agree

dom. dow is in double digits. people keep say why is this happening? i can give you two simple reasons. one is continuing low rates. not just in europe. take a look at our ten-year, right around there, 2.396. right now that's number one factor. number two, lower commodity prices. that's keeping consumers very, very happen happy. finally there's also the theory that no -- of course mario draghi, hinting there will be continued stimulus over there. home builders a bit weak here. there's sort of disappointing spot here today. july new home sales were very disappointing. very simple comment, be careful about making brought pronouncements on a quiet day in august. i would like to see what happens when we see more volume and more conviction. it's not that there's no -- we're having light volume on a seasonal basis. all i can tell you is there's not a lot for sale out there right now. >> bob. thank you very much. let's check out a chart of the qs over certainly the last three months. seema mody is in times square at the nasdaq suites. >> yeah, you know, simon

versus europe. >> dom chu says u.s. markets are the place to be, bus seema mody says there's more valuable across the pond. take it away. >> here we go. i'm going first. >> all right. go first. i know at first glance it doesn't look that appealing, slowing growth. we got those numbers overnight, but some market strategists say hey, europe has a supportive monetary policy that's aimed at stimulating the economy, and in a bold move, mario drawingi introduced negative interest rates to push banks to loan more money. that will continue until europe sees better days. second reason you might want to stay bullish is on earnings. and on average. 350 stock index are forecasted to show 8.5 jump in earnings this year. that, by the way, guys, higher than the average for companies in the u.s., companies on the s&p 500, so clearly disappointing data over the past couple weeks, but estimates for earnings still higher. >> here's what i got in responsible to that, yes, maybe negative interest rates are a big deal, but let's not kid ours

dom any chu joins you from the new york stock exchange. here's what is happening.you look at what's happening with the market, we're just about flat but near session highs. the month of august has been doing pretty decently overall. the s&p, though, so far, if you look at we'll call it, it's bum about 4% through the month of august. this is a big deal. if you look at the sectors, there are in outperformers in this particular month. say health care and consumer staples they're up by about 4.5%. energy and telecom stocks have been some of the lagging type of sectors. still we're on pace to at least close out slightly positive. with the s&p 500 today, if we can hold these levels, we are on pace for at least four weeks worth of gains, but we talk about this idea that things are a bit slow slower. whether or not they pick up next week, for the long weekend, that remains to be seen. for right now, ten-year yields at 2.33%, and for the most part stocks holding fairly steady. i did speak to art cashin arier today, he said his bias right now is to take a bit of risk off the

thanks, dom. >>> spending their rally, the dow and s&p up for a fourth time in five days. the dow with the biggest gain in four months. mary thompson joins me on the floor of the new york stock exchange. you should come down here every day. the market goes up. >> it's very similar to what we saw yesterday. yesterday was when the lowest volume days of the year. broad-based rally today, what's driving it, of course are earnings and the economic data. the data on the housing market, you can see the s&p 500 which earlier today brought through this area of resistance yesterday at 1972. nice move up after that, which we didn't see yesterday. it kind of consolidated to the next barrier. the housing-related stocks are higher, because home depot reported, and then the housing starts numbers were good. existing home sales are on thursday, so look for that. nat gas has popped up. we've seen a little pop here, and that in turnsz is affecting the coal stocks, because that makes some of these coal-fired utiliti

dom? >> a slew of them. right, scott?t what's happening with the markets here, near session highs, although that means that we're just marginally lower on the dow. if you look at some of the names here. look at s&p overall intraday, hovering near some of the session highs now again with the s&p up, call it 3 or 4 pounlts or 2/10 of 1%. look at big names. home depot, dow component, traded on the new york stock exchange, that at one point today hit a record high. also look at some of the other names. marriott. also hormel and, of course, dr. pepper snapple all trading here at the nyc and all at some point today hit a record high overall and, of course, it's not traded here, but people still all over the place. doesn't matter where you are if you're a trader here or elsewhere, you look at apple shares. of course, apple stock is again hitting a record high today. so some of these calmer trades overall, but still record highs, notable by a lot of the traders down here on the floor. scott, back to you. >> all right. dom, thanks

guys, back to you. >> thanks, dom. less than two weeks away now murph. what does it mean for the stock? a stock typically running up into an event with issues on the other side. >> write it up as it goes high perp getting closer to this event, see people jumping in and buying calls, buying, trying to get an upside in the stock, go out and sell the calls. take in the premium, becauses you point out, scott, a lot of times apple sells off after the event is announced. ride the stock. sell protection on it. >> doc? >> well, i think that is the play. that you take care, pick up protection here, judge, and we're talking about two different things as far as euphoria to steph's point, i think. i don't see it in the stock market. die in the economy. i see strong things happening in the economy we should be euphoric about. things like the gdp she cited. like some of these inventories whittled down. housing, all the west. that's different than a euphoric burst of volume and buying in the stock market that drives us to all-time highs. not seeing that. >> interesting

. >> dom, thank you. we're down 32 points on the dow. the concerns over the ukraine basically overshadowing stronger than expecting economic data. bears making their case yesterday. david thaison on the show called for 30-60% stock market crash right here on "power lunch." another big bear in five minute's time. he's chief executive officer at rnc, craig is also here, portfolio manager for the morning star, five star rated horges. welcome to you boept, thank you for joining us. >> let me kick off with you dan, it's inevitable if you're trading at these levels s&p 2,000, but you're going to review where you're going. what the bigger picture is. tice got a lot of attention. his argument was trees don't grow in the sky. q serks only a short term fix. why is he wrong? >> trees don't grow into the sky, they grow in a strong foundation. we're in a position where we're probably going to see 17819 or 120 on earnings this year. likely 130 next year. and training got roughly 16.7 pe trails and a 144 forward. we're not on that shaky a ground. the r

as i mentioned, dom is here as well.irst question, kind of d dom's point here, what does s&p 2,000 ultimately mean? >> you know, for us, i think we could definitely see some consolidation. we still see positives-negatives coming out of economic news. you see one good thing, and then like we had great existing home sales and then really bad new home sales. it's sort of that back-and-forth. another thing is, there really is psychology around these big numbers. when the s&p crossed the 100 and the 1,000 mark, they actually crossed four to seven times and took over a decade to finally move away. tie don't think that's going to be the case in this period when it crossed 1,500 or 500, it was more like quick touches and then keep bouncing off. i think that's more likely what we will see. >> yeah, i love that chart that goes back to 1995 showing sort of the peaks and troughs. i wonder how it would look overlaid over the size of the u.s. economy. in other words, people saying here's what the stock market's done over this period s

oh, dom chu is there! dom chu, hello there. what's going on?all right, we've got a lot of movers. let's start with cardinal health, moving lower after the health care services company said its fiscal fourth-quarter sales declined due to the continuing impact of its expired contract with walgreens. so, those shares are off session lows, down nearly 3%. now, disney's moving higher as its "guardians of the galaxy" marvel franchise movie soared past expectations with a $94 million opening weekend at the u.s. box office, setting a new august record for films. amgen also gaining ground on news its blood cancer drug met its main goal in the late-stage trial, shares up nearly 3%. and let's end with michael kors, falling after the company said it expects margins to shrink for the year as it invests more to open stores across europe. kors down about 6.5%, kelly and bill, on today's trade. back over to you. >> thanks, dom. welcome back. >> yeah. good to see dom again. is this an opportunity for investors to get in on kors or is the company head ed the way

dom chu is back with a look at these and the wild stock. dom, we should be clear, a lot of these companies are small cap companies. >> that's right. that's the full disclosure part. they could swing quite a bit. they are on the smaller side. let's start with a company tekmura, it opened stronger on the hopes that an experimental ebola treatment would be renewed by the fda after a clinical hold last month and biocryst. there is a privately held company map biopharmaceuticals, there are reports that its drug was showing signs or promise. it showed competitors like tekmura down in trading. some analysts contend with the current six, investors should proceed with caution when it comes to these types of truck companies. >> it is unclear whether these therapies will get used, will get commercialized and whether or not any of these companies request actually profit off the buy risk in africa, where there is obviously not a large amount of money to pay for theerps. so, again, high risk situation here with these plays, so one would need to be extrem

. >> back over to you dom. dr. j. this is a company until a few weeks ago no one heard of. it's a small company thrust in the limelight in light of the ebola sair scare world wide. what do you make in light of what we heard? >> like a lot of companies in their pace, their burn rate is extraordinary, they are losing money faster, accelerating these tests is grit for the people suffering. it's not great for the company as a whole unless they get to that break-through event and there is some sort of compassionate use of the product. otherwise the commercialization of this product is out there in terms of years in terms of them getting money back for it. so missing on top and bottom lean pretty big, that's not a surprise. again, most biotechs do. but as far as the stock has already gone from 8 or $9 bucks up to $20 on the ebola breakout. that was sort of priced in here. the fact that it's sinking a dollar-and-a-half or 8 or 9% doesn't scare me if are you in for the future of this particular treatment, you stay in. otherwise, i don't touch it. >> got it. macy's is shaking up the

let's bring in michelle caruso-cabrera, dom any chu, also bob pisani. michelle, is this for real? or do we take it with a grain of russian salt? >> i think what it tells is, one, the markets were very nervous. there had been a big buildup, and without a doubt across wall street had been expectations ratcheted up, that it was possible russia would invade ukraine the reason -- it looked like ukrainance were doing quite well, and it looked like they might beat them back. so that's why the expectations were high. this market was vulnerable to good news. this comes out. i think whatsh read in the market reaction is people in the market think that russia will not invade ukraine this weekend. remember, putin has backed down before. we saw it happened in may. it looked like we were on the brink of something big. he backed down, markets rallied, but only -- what did he do? he came back again, right? you. >> this was announced, so i guess what we can surmise is there was an expectation in the market, perhaps even a small one that maybe these weren't actually just war games. >>> for anyone,
