student for the second hour of the "closing bell" with kelly evans.everybody. >>> wow, a history day. welcome to "closing bell." i almost had a heart attack. we have some fireworks going off, thanks to the folks at macy's. who knew it would be such as apt display here on july 3rd, as we finish up the day on wall street, fireworks indeed. the dow jones industrial average closing above 17,000 for the first time. never, going out near the highs of the session. >>> our own sara eisen and dominic chu, with us, kenny polcari. welcome to everybody, kenny, what do you think? >> certainly a great way to go out for fourth of july, right? kind of right at the top here, all this excitement. today's nfp report certainly adding fuel to the fire. this morning out of. >>> don't forget it's half a day today, low volumes not a lot of people around to react. >>> i think it will allow the economy to catch up. >> the line about a 10% correction is landlords bumming a punch line. how concerned should we be that it's kernel more? one of those markets where the path of least

i'm kelly evans. we don't want to speak too soon.how things shake out here but it does appear the s&p 500 adding less than a point will close today at another record high. for the second day in a row, 1,987 is the level. it is the decimal point that makes it matter. the s&p 500, the broad market, u.s. index, closing at another record high. the dow jones giving up three points, remains at pretty well off its closing high of 17,138. joining me, jon fortt and dr. j, the "fast money" trader historian jon najarian joins us. can we just talk for a second, jim, about record highs for the s&p against the backdrop of such international tension. >> what we're seeing is the big cap indices. the s&p 500, the dow jones industrial average, they're clawing their way higher. but underneath the surface if you look at what small caps are doing, at what more risky names are doing and you look at what the advance/decline numbers are doing, they don't look as good. furthermore you've got an s&p now at 17 1/2 times earnings with a 1.9% yield. that doesn't

i'm kelly evans. industrial and the s&p 500 today on the start of the month and the beginning of the second half of 2014 are closing in record territory. here is a look at how we're finishing up the day on wall street. green arrows across the board, echoing what we saw overseas. the dow adding about 130 points off the highs of the session and considerably so. the nasdaq adding 50 points, having a strong day over 1%. the s&p up 13 to 1973. let's talk about it with the panel. who better on the market day like this than bob pisani who is here, welcome. danny hughes, founder and ceo of divine capital is with us. eunice yu in the house from beijing, sharon epperson to talk about markets, brian kelly, "fast money" trader. there's a lot to discuss. brian are you surprised instead of getting closer to retaking the 17,000 mark we gave up a little bit of ground there at the bell. >> no. we barely gave up anything and the 17,000 mark for me as a trader really doesn't mean anything. what's most important is that

i'm kelly evans.r monday, here's how we're finishing an up-and-down day, a mixed one, and we're waiting for key earnings this hour, including results from herbalife. look at where we're finishing up across the major averages with the dow going out on a gain of about 20 points. of course, it's below that 17,000 mark still, 16,981 is the level. also a slight gain for the s&p, adding about half a point now that all's said and done. the nasdaq under pressure, off about 4 1/2 points. we talked about twitter last hour and they'll report tomorrow. dick costolo will be on the program. joining our panel today, andrew apartmentie from height securities, kayla tausche, private investor at newmark and for more, "fast money" trader guy adami. good to see everybody. andrew, first to you. there's so many individual names with big moves today. we've got a couple inversion deals that are still out there, we've got the dollar stores, which we've got to talk about. is this just open season for merger activity? do you ex

i'm kelly evans.reet rebounding after a tough start to the week with the dow up about 80 points at the close. that is about 15 points shy of the 17,000 threshold we first pushed through last week in terms of the closing high. the nasdaq adding 27 points. the s&p to 1972. the russell was a little weaker into the close. let's get right to it with today's panel and talk about these minutes. nathan joins me. bill snead, stephanie ling, scott cohen and also joining sus"fast money" trader john najarian and steve liesman. welcome, everybody. steve, it's been two hours since those minutes hit. do you think they were the main reason why stocks pushed a little bit higher later in the session? >> you definitely saw a reaction to the minutes following the 2:00 release, kelly. and i think the reason is that everything in the minutes is gradual. the fed gave some certainty around the end of qe happening in october. pretty much along the line of market expectations. and then gave us detail around when it will begin

i'm kelly evans down here at the new york stock exchange. >> and i'm bill griffeth. it's about the stock market sell-off. the nasdaq posting the worst decline of the day again. seema mody, what's going on there? >> bill, high-flying growth sectors that have led the nasdaq up and down this year once again showing signs of weakness. it's been a tough day for biotech, social media and internet stocks also getting hit on the chin, names like trip advisor and baidu showing signs of weakness. now, social media also moving to the downside after staging a major comeback over the last four weeks. but here's the thing, guys, it's not just those momentum stocks. large-cap tech stocks also moving to the down side. steve malone vich at ubs has a buy rating on apple, but he did put out a cautious note today, saying apple could face pricing pressures in china. on that note, intel and ibm will be in focus, kicking off tech earnings next week. that's when investors will get an initial preview of what to expect in the second quarter. bill and kelly? >> seema, thank you very much. let'

i'm kelly evans down here at the new york stock exchange, where it's been a wild day on wall street. the dow off as much as 125 points. we're down 37 at the moment. >> volatility is definitely back. i'm bill griffeth. also here at the big board. stocks staging a late-day comeback after geopolitical turmoil sparked that steep sell-off earlier in this session because of the situation in gaza remains deadly and unsettled. we'll hear about that in just a moment. and international posturing about the downing of malaysia air flight 17 in ukraine has gotten trickier. china now inserting itself and telling the west not to blame russia so quickly. but we should point out, you probably have heard that they have made some inroads in all of that and inspectors are now being allowed into that area and they are starting to move the remains of the victims off to the netherlands. >> yeah, we're watching that story today. also today on the fourth anniversary of the controversial dodd/frank financial regulation, the two authors of the bill are here exclusive. the law by many measures still incomplete

i'm kelly evans, and it's 4:00 here on wall street.finishing up the session that has seen lows of about 180 points in the dow jones industrial average this morning. looks like we're going out to the close with a decline of less than 70. meanwhile, the nasdaq, the s&p 500, all the major indexes are under pressure today. those two off about 0.5%, but the russell is off 1%. it's having a pretty rough week. let's talk to our panel now about that and what's happening in the market this week. john is from gfi group, cnbc contributor carol roth, our own sara eisen and cnbc contributor jon najarian, all with me to start things off. welcome to everybody. listen, john spelanzani, we were down sharply this morning, we came back. is it significant that we didn't close positive? how do you read the action today? >> well, i thought the action this morning was pretty good. the dip was bought very well. i think that italy actually came back fairly significantly down 2.5%. it was down about 1.2%, it closed down about 1.6%. we saw the bonds were really

i'm kelly evans.panel is herb greenberg, nick lag carlson from business insider, todd schoenberger from jay striker asset management. and to wrap up the day's action on the markets, "fast money" trader jon najarian. we're all waiting for key earnings reports due out in a couple minutes' time. dr. j., what is the most important thing to watch for here after the close? >> well, for me, it's going to be facebook, because number one, because i'm in that stock. so, kelly, that's important to me. but as far as the overall market, i think the fact that facebook could actually be monetizing in a bigger way, mobile in particular, i think that's where the real juice is coming from here. stocks just slightly below an all-time high. there were big up-time -- i'm sorry, call speculation in this name. if they can blow it out, that's going to carry an awful lot of social media names, of course, like twitter and all the rest of them that janet yellen talked about. it will carry them all higher. >> can't wait to see w

it's the second hoff of the "closing bell" with kelly evans and company.tomorrow. >> thank you, bill. welcome to the "closing bell," everybody. i'm kelly evans and here's how we're finishing up. a mixed day across wall street. we started out with the dow looking at record intraday highs. we're closing with it barely positive, up about seven points. 17,063 is the level at the moment. now, the nasdaq and s&p never recovered, turned negative on the session after we heard from janet yellen, saw a report in tandem with her testifying on capitol hill today. we'll talk about that in a second, the hit that the social and biotech names took, leading the nasdaq off about 0.5% today, down 24 points and the s&p off 3 1/2. joining us now, greg buttle from rockefeller consulting, inside capitalist. cnbc's own kate pelg and sharon epperson are here and here to break down the market reaction is david rosenburg and "fast money" trader guy adami. thank you to everybody. dave rosenberg, let me start with you, because we had a pretty heated debate last hour about whether or n

i'm kelly evans at the new york stock exchange. stocks are taking it on the chin today, this on the comeback bac high-profile earnings week, bill. amazon was the focus the last 24 hours. >> it was, but it's visa that's taking a toll on the dow itself. russia, all of that combining to make this cocktail that is weighing heavily on the markets today. the industrial average was down 168 points. we're off that low right now, as a matter of fact. >> yes, we are, although not by too much. we're off 130 points, back below the 17,000 mark, we should add. pressure across the other indexes as well. the s&p 500 up almost 10 points to 1,978 aramafteramaicing new this week. and remember, amazon is about 13% of the nasdaq 100. >> let's get more on what was wrong with visa and its responsibility for a lot of the dow's decline today. here's mary thompson with that story. mary? >> hey, there, bill. visa is off the lows of the session, but the payments processing giant's stock is the biggest loser among the dow 30, this after the company lowered its

i'm kelly evans at the new york stock exchange. >> i'm bill griffeth. depends on who you ask if you want to know exactly why stocks are down. there is a number of reasons. we will get into all the possible scenarios. but the bottom line is, stocks are now negative for the month. a major averages are. first time since january. the global uncertainty feeding in to those red arrows looks to be continuing into the month of august. as we stand here, we're at the lows of the day right now for the dow. >> the trading across europe, we saw a lot of those indexes off 2%. for a while it looked like we might outperform, bill. now the dow is off 1.6%. 267 points. we needed to add 50 if we wanted to be positive on the month. >> the dow is down 1.6%. the russell is down 2.3%. the small cap stocks are taking a big hit today. another recent leader in this market to the up side, the transportation stocks, down sharply as well today, down 115 points. >> a lot of breadth across the sell-offs, it is pretty indiscriminate. if you are a value investor, that should mean oppor

i'm kelly evans at the new york stock exchange. where are you, bill? >> i'm back at cnbc world headquarters, and we know why. i'll be on "nightly business report" tonight on pbs. hope you can join us at that time. we are "delivering alpha" today, folks. delivering news of a potential deal that could change the media business fundamentally. we may be delivering a new all-time high for the stock market as well. the dow is higher today, has been from the get-go, and this time, nothing that fed chair janet yellen said in day two of her testimony on the hill did anything to take the wind out of the rally's sales. we only need a gain of about eight points for a new high. we're already up 60, and that's even off the highs of the day here, kelly. >> that's right. so, we're sitting at 17,120 on the dow. there are reverberations from yellen's remarks, particularly in biotech, down today. that may speak all more to the strength we're seeing across the broader market here. obviously, keeping an eye on the big names involved in the mega deal you mentioned, we shoul

it's hour number two of the "closing bell" with kelly evans and company.see you tomorrow. >>> thank you, bill. welcome to the "closing bell," everybody. i'm kelly evans, and a pretty strong monday to kick things off this week. here's how we're finishing up the session, with the dow up about 113 points on the bell, 0.66%, putting the index at about 17,056. we needed something like 17,068 to close at a record high. the nasdaq adding 0.5% or 25 points, 4,440. and the s&p adding about ten to 1,977, 0.5% there and it's about seven or eight points off 1,985, its closing high earlier this month. today's "closing bell" panel joining me now is harold ford jr. from morgan stanley, ylan moy from the "washington post," kayla tausche and dominic chu, fighting some traffic problems, importantly, dom. and with us from the nasdaq to wrap up today's market action is "fast money" trader tim seymour. tim, want to start with you before we get to the markets. generally, what happened in gold today? >> a lot of technicals are working against gold, too. you have some technicals

i'm kelly evans here at the new york stock exchange. >> and i'm bill griffeth. as anticipated, a very busy, newsy day, a lot for the market to digest. first thing this morning a much stronger-than-expected growth number for the second quarter, 4%, very big, and that sent the stock market higher, but we went lower after some troubling news out of russia came our way. >> and interestingly enough, we've also been whip-sawed by the federal reserve's meeting. its latest statement which hit around 2:00 pushed us positive, since given some of that back. we continue to move to the down side. we should add as we enter this hour, we're off about 41 points. the nasdaq, though, bucking that trend. >> we should show you the ten-year yield as well. that's been up ten basis points today. that gdp number had a big impact on that. it's up nine basis points to 2.55%, and the 30-year's 3.2% right now, so moving quite higher. but i'm stealing -- oh, now it's at 3.30%, as a matter of fact, $ 3.31, do i hear 3.32? i'm stealing rick santelli's. >> troubling reports out of russia and e
