because janet yellen's speech in jackson hole is focused purely on jobs.cused on, do we have the right metric for measuring employment growth? and for me that can be a seminole speech like bernanke was, you pointed out earlier, for capping the rally near term. >> for more go to "futures now" host, mandy drury. >> with a colder vix, fear index. ript? seeing a little bit more fear out in the market today with the vix, you say, rising to the highest since april. and do you feel the con placeancy for today is leaving the market? >> absolutely. lasts longer than today, mandy. certain things have changed in this market for sure. the sanctions, argentina, just a couple. investors are now looking for a way to hedge portfolios against these falling equity prices and the vishgs is one way to do that. and as far as the jobs number tomorrow, expand more on the show. we could be in an area where good news is actually bad news for the markets. >> rich, what do you think? how far could this vix rise? >> with vix up 20% pointing to lower equities to the tune of 1% to 2% t

that's something that janet yellen at the next conference, maybe even jackson hole, might explain. >> but what this tension is going to do, the next time we see forecasts from fomc members, they're going to be bringing forward the rate hikes. that's the way individual members express that is dissent. that may actually condition into the market. i think the market itself will bring forward the expectations. >> great stuff, david, thank you very much, bob and steve as well. the market reporters are standing by. let's get down to bob pisani and rick santelli. >> the reaction down on the floor there? >> i think most of the traders are talking about slack in the labor market, a range of labor market indicators suggest that it remains significant underutilization of labor resources. let's look at the markets here. we actually moved up. i think, and i'm just checking with people down here, the general feel is that's a keep paragraph here right now. there's a little move up. oftentimes markets move down. i think it's probably related to that. most other people also pointed to a slightly more

and i'm hoping places like jacksons hold the fed speech by janet yellen.e get some sense of the parameters. >> you'll be there. >> absolutely. >> front row seats. >> sometimes i want to take a porcupine quill and poke myself in the eye. i know we have to go, but you know when mortgage rates went down six, everyone said when we hit six, it's going to be a gold mine, gold, jerry, gold, now we're at four, and if we go to six, we're dead. now 1% fed funds would have been a gold rush a number years ago. now we're look at 1% as if it's going to destroy the economy. >> brian, if all you did today, and any day is come into work and lean against the hiser it ya, you go home with your head up and tell your kid you did a good day's work because there's plenty of people out there that are try, that's why i'm saying the risk of fed going up is higher maybe because of the better numbers. pointing out that the numbers are better and it doesn't mean the end of the world, but it is something that a prudent person would put in. get up, have a cup of coffee, go home with you

jackson hole in august? >> no. i think that the last comments janet yellen made about the slight uptick in inflation being nothing much to worry about, it does seem to me to indicate a bias to say that we had a bad winter data, we saw weakness in emerging markets, last summer we saw slowdown in the housing market. we need to make sure we have a post winter rebound in the data and they'll get that. but i think once we've seen the data through the summer, once we get back to the start of a new school term, the start of new graduate training probably with higher salaries than last year's, then i think the whole thing shifts. i think the football might be more exciting than the minutes. >> couldn't possibly comment. the dollar? >> the dollar, we all held the dollar at the beginning of the year in anticipation of a rate rise next year. currencies move before the rate rise. we're all kind of crazily early into the long dollar trade mainly because lots of people like me found lots of other currencies they didn't like. patience is incredibly difficult to keep hold of. but it will come, just not yet. >> the euro is not too str

i think you have to believe that the fed -- i mean, let's wait until jackson hole to hear what underutilization means by janet people really don't know how quickly the fed's going to run back into the table, but there's a little more descension on the fed board. i would not be scared with the bhps and the alcoas and integrated miners and the industrial metals. i think if we have the kind of growth and the inventory build we saw out of today's gdp, those are trades that still have a valuation argument and i think they've got the global economy behind them. >> are we making too much of this dissent at the fed? just to remind viewers, we've had two dissents this year. the one back in i think march, was to the dovish side of things and now one with plosser more hawkish. >> which is more surprising. people thought it would be richard fisher, especially in light of his recent speeches. >> it kind of was, yeah. >> when it comes to the "wall street journal," they transcribed his speech, sort of going against what's happening right now and talking about the inside for higher interest rate policy. you have to see more

i think janet yellen will have to make her case on this story and convince markets that she knows what's going on out there in the labor market. i think jacksonmes important to, and tomorrow's number becomes important. two words you need to put on the potentially endangered list, considerable period. essentially what charles plauzer objected to. interesting to see if others begin to object to using that term, which is the time between the end of qe and when the fed would raise rates. in the statement it says considerable period. some commentary this morning, carl, that that phrase could be endangered. >> steve, thanks a lot. see what happens in the morning. steve liesman. >>> a quick look at t-mobile here. shares off the highs. still positive this morning after the wireless carrier did beat expectations for q2, adding 1.5 million customers raising subscriber growth forecast to a profit. joining us first on "squawk on the street" and credits shifting mobile trends for their growth. take a listen. >> everybody will have multiple devices. most people have more than one cell phone that they're -- a tablet, wearable device, and i think that's -- t
