kristina partsinevelos, jonathan hoenig, john layfield and gary kaltbaum. guys, isn't demonizing the rich an attack on the american dream? >> well, look, i would like to say that yes, it's a war on wealthy but more, it's a war on people who are trying to get wealthy. when you raise taxes and they are going to raise taxes on everybody, it gets tougher every time you move up the ladder. let me just give you a list. this is just a one week list of what's being proposed. a higher payroll tax, higher corporate tax, higher capital gains tax, carbon tax, 90% tax, 70% tax, 77% estate tax. wealth confiscation, i can't even call it a tax because it's already earned money. i'm almost speechless at what we are seeing and what we are hearing. the thing is, they are doing it and trying to sell it because i guess some people are listening but really, it's just one big giant con because these socialists hate successful people. it is simple as that. success is the biggest enemy of these people. >> oh, okay. to your point, you are saying who is listening, you have democrats

we have kristina partsinevelos, liz peak, gary kaltbaum and also joining us in a fox business exclusive from capitol hill, iowa senator chuck grassley, chairman of the senate finance committee, also serves on the senate judiciary, budget and tax committees. senator, what i didn't mention was she also talks about eliminating cows in the next ten years or at least cows, forgive me, but she said this, that pass gas. i don't know of any cows that don't pass gas. you come from a farm state. forgive me, but she says this. what do you think your farming constituents would say about it? >> it sounds to me like we have a member of the house of representatives who kind of believes or knows this about food. food grows in supermarkets, not on farms. and the problem we have is only 2% of the people in this country produce food and know what it takes to produce food, and the 98% don't know as much about it as they should, and you get stupid comments like that. >> this is what representative cortez had to say on the investment and the dollars with the green deal. let's get to it. >> this is an investm

kristina partsinevelos, liz peak, john layfield. first, back to new york city, where amazon's second headquarters would have been built. connell mcshane, new polls show locals wanted amazon to come in. what are you hearing? reporter: in the end it was really that local pressure from the likes of congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez that you brought up that amazon says led into the decision to pull out. remember, there were a lot of jobs being promised. amazon said it was bringing more than 25,000 jobs here, high-paying ones as well. $150,000 average salary but again, that local political pressure got the best of the company. in a statement earlier today it said wow, the polls show that 70% of new yorkers support our planned investment but a number of state and local politicians made it clear they oppose our presence and will not work with us to build the type of relationships that are required to go forward with the project we and many others envisioned in long island city. among those who envisioned it, the governor of the state,

kristina partsinevelos, thanks.ristina's point on aoc ideas, you heard heard president trump inventor publicans using the term socialism to go on the attack against alexandria ocasio-cortez or other democrats. the former clinton energy secretary bill richardson was on with us last hour saying the green new deal is a counter move to terms policies. here's how he put it. >> i disagree with howard schultz. i think what you're seeing is the alternative, connell, the president saying there is no climate change problem. >> you're going on the record in supporting something people being honest about it is not technically going to happen. you don't think that's a local issue appeared >> no, i would go on the record. i would support it appeared connell: bill mccurtain joins us now. interesting to hear that narrative to republicans especially as this is like a political gift to them to get the democrats on the record. >> the meanest thing the republicans are doing to democrats on this is asking them to vote for it. it's a bri

kristina partsinevelos on floor of new york stock exchange. christina?> we're at session highs but nonetheless closed in the green. what has contributed? you alluded to the jobs numbers. we also got ism manufacturing numbers. for the jobs report, really beat analyst expectations. economists expecting a lot less. look at those numbers 304,000 jobs added. we had the partial shutdown. the shutdown did contribute though to the unemployment rate which hike ad little higher to the 4%. also some positives. focus on positives. you saw wage growth up 3.2% compared to last year and seems like a lot of furloughed workers, those working for the federal government did tap into the part-time market. you saw a lot of new part-time workers. talking about markets this week, look at that the dow, almost all of them 1.5% higher or the dow almost climbing up higher. so green territory. we know the month of january was best month for stocks in 30 years. we'll see if we continue the trend for february. some of the winners. dow winners for the week. you got boeing on the board

kristina partsinevelos watching markets from the new york stock exchange. blake burman watching budget battle from the white house. edward lawrence coughing all things china trade from washington. kristina. very good day. >> that is an understatement. we had four days of negative territory for the dow. we're seeing a rally. honestly from traders i'm speaking to today. doesn't have to do with the shutdown. a lot are heading, buying into china. they believe, several traders around me believe the president will come to a conclusion as he alluded to today, he will push that deadline forward and that they are going to work on a deal and maybe get something going by the end of march. a lot of investors entering the market contributing to the rally. some dow leaders we're seeing are typical dow leaders we see whenever we talk about china trade in the mix. caterpillar on the board, boeing, 3m. all of these stocks, except for caterpillar up above 5 1/2%. you can see constantly very similar story. i want to end on an interesting story that seems to get a lot of consum

let's go straight to kristina partsinevelos on the floor of the new york stock exchange. kristina. >> i almost hit the guy, traders telling me not much movement, not much news. you have a lot of earnings. but it has been quiet over the past few days. consumer discretionary, technology, really moving markets. let's look at dow movers. you see movement literally towards the last 15 minutes of the day. what winners are we seeing on screen? boeing up there, just in 2019 alone. a top performing dow stock. because the dow is weighted. when the boeing stock is doing well. the rest of the dow is doing well. it accounts for a quarter of dow's gains. you're seeing apple a lot higher. latest news we're see receiving right now, apple reached a deal with france to pay back taxes. nonetheless not really affecting the stock market cap. it is still very, very high. you have intel in the mix over there. but if we're going to talk, we talk about apple, we talk about boeing, i want to bring in two other retail companies really moving today. that is because of the earnings report. you have go

kristina partsinevelos, following it all, joins us now. >> you have the third and fourth largest wirelesscompany, that would consistently have 127 million subscribers. there is a lot going on in congress today with the ceos of sprint and t-mobile, even though congress can't veto this deal, they wanted to ask a few questions and they were concerned about competition. you had the ceo, john legere who spoke about promises for customers. listen in. >> the new t-mobile will have the capital, scale, the network to super charge competition, unleashing significant benefits for consumers that includes keeping prices low. >> he went on to promise he would keep prices low up to three years. they do claim too, this could potentially keep prices low for everyone because they will be better able to compete against all the competition like at&t and verizon but also compete against tech giants that enter the wireless say like let's aapple. they plan to move to rural america, offer 5600 new jobs, five new call centers from 2021. this deal would also help them improve the 5g technology, that they could bea

our very own kristina partsinevelos joins us with manufacturer. >> that is exactly right.till continuing to look at a presidential run in 2020. he doesn't want to side with the extreme right. he doesn't want to side with the extreme left. he wants to focus on centrist policies. which means he would attack alexandria ocasio-cortez's policies, the first one being tax rates. he doesn't think those making over $10 million should be taxed at 70%. but then he was asked, what tax rate would be suitable for the wealthy? he didn't have an answer. you talk about the green new deal. he said that he completely disagreed with it. green new deal focuses completely on 100% clean energy, as well as changing infrastructure in the country. it is supposedly going to be paid by the federal reserve, extending credit as well as the government. howard schultz spoke at a cnn town hall yesterday evening. listen to why he disagreed with the deal. >> it is immoral to suggest we can tally up, 20, 30, 40, $50 trillion of debt to solve a problem that could be solved in a different way. let's not just t

kristina partsinevelos joins us from the newsroom. there is a lot of parts to this, right?> there is definitely a lot of parts. amazon is not in the search for a second headquarters. they're considering going to nashville. what we do know from the statement, it had a lot to do with backlash from politicians an residents n the statement, i want to read one quick part of it, while polls show 70% of new yorkers support our plans and investment, a number of state and local politicians have made it clear they oppose our presence and will not work us to build the type of relationships that are required to go forward with the project. so that is the major crux there, the major issue, there was no positive collaboration, this again is a quote coming from them between local politicians and amazon. then you had mayor de blasio, reach out make a statement, quite strong statement, and i quote, you have to be tough to make it in new york city. we gave amazon the opportunity to be a good neighbor and do business in the greatest city in the world. instead of working with the community, am

retailer giant offering quarterly bonuses for good attendance, kristina partsinevelos live in washingtone with more on this development, hi, kristina. >> hi, what we know is that right now we have entered a very, very tight labor market, companies are pushing forward to retain employees and wal-mart is just one example. they've announced just today, so starting today all hourly workers they are going to be offering protecting time off, for every 30 hours you work in a week you will get 1 hour off, the days, they can be used for anything, doesn't necessarily have to be vacation, dentist appointment, you can take the time off, the only caveat out of this, let's say you have unexpected take the day off, they have decreased the amount to 5 days, if you take off more than 5 days you could potentially get fired. like you mentioned, they are also structuring bonus program a little bit differently so it's linked to attendance as opposed to only store performance. of course, you have people that aren't happy with, this labor activists groups that say that's going to encourage people to come to wo

kristina partsinevelos digging through the numbers. kristina. >> anything but you're seeing major indices across the board up higher on economic data. the jobs report as well as ism manufacturing report. let's dig into the jobs report, for the month of january, we know jobs climbed up to 304,000 added jobs for that month. we're seeing strength. that is way higher than what a lot of economists were thinking. they also did revision for november and december. there were 70,000 fewer jobs. even if you take that into account, you're still seeing strength across a three-month period. lots of strength in the jobs report. the wages climbed 3.2% year-over-year. spoke to one trader, the 3% threshold was important to go beyond it. seeing strength there. hourly wages climbing higher. labor participation rate, up ever so slightly. that is seen as positive, especially as baby boomers are retiring. it is showing new talent entering into the market. moving on to other data. i will not bog everybody down with too many numbers but you have the ism manufa

kristina partsinevelos has been following it all. >> yes, in regards to twitter we're looking at too,ire tech sector is being hit broadly, primarily before larry kudlow did discuss china you saw the tech sector down. twitter did release earnings yesterday. revenue strong, earnings per share strong, but the problem with a lot of investors the cautious tone when it comes to guidance. we'll bring up some of the points we're seeing for the company. what are they talking about? their revenue will be 715 million to 765 which is a little lower than what analysts are expensing. you're seeing expenses for the next quarter will jump 20%. the company, this has a lot of chatter, amongst a lot of analysts and traders, texting with one guy, getting rid of the monthly active user metric. instead they're going to focus on daily active users, supposedly a little bit better of a metric. there is discrepancies why twitter is doing this now when the monthly active number is falling. how is the street reacting? we're getting nets from rbc, holding the stock at $32. he believes the margins might be squeeze

kristina partsinevelos has more. >> that's true. we don't know exactly the amount.eached out to uber and lyft. both responded saying they won't comment on "the wall street journal report." what we've seen from the report so far, lyft drivers, if they drive 10,000 rides they could potentially get $1000 cash or the option to get stock in the company at the ipo price, if they ride 20,000 rides. that is a lot. they could potentially get $10,000 or the option to bet stock in the company. they were rewarding potentially drivers been around the longest and criteria also, those that have been the most active when it comes to uber drivers as well. the issue is the sec laws doesn't allow for uber to give shares to employees because they're not actual full-time employees. they're just contractors. so i couldn't get any comment from uber and lyft, i had to go to the source the drivers themselves. i called about a dozen ubers to the fox location, got in back seat, got a few to comment on camera, what they would prefer, cash or stock option. >> i would take the stock because i th

let's get to read from kristina partsinevelos. >> we know amazon bought whole foods back in 2017 andrs are hoping it will be lowering the prices and yes we did see the price of avocado a little bit lawyer but now the wall street journal is the first to report that prices of whole food products are climbing higher. there is a company e-mail sent out about 550 products will see their prices climb higher. everything from hÄagen-dazs i.c.e. cream to olive and cookies. the reason for some of these price hikes have to do with the fact that suppliers have reached prices due to inflation. there's been several contracts expired in whole foods decided to not renew them and move on to other suppliers. the labor and transportation have increased at fox business did receive a statement from whole foods alluding to those reasons and pretty much saying yes we are increasing prices but i want to highlight another on the next page saying many prices have also decreased and we continue to expand the number of promotions we offered to give our customers better value. this is where it comes in with prim

arrive it is close watching earnings this morning viacom shares under pressure mixed earnings kristina partsinevelosllars, you are seeing on screen climbing higher, the earnings per share adjusted also came in better than expected so that is why you are getting that mixed report, the reason being, though, was trading lower now up higher lower ad sales that is a very, very similar story to what we heard yesterday, from alphabet the parent company of google, google reported their earnings, you had earnings per share at 12.77 stronger than expected profit, the problem though is the stock fell after trading because of lower ad sales concern facebook google two-thirds of the market, and amazon is slowly starting to jump in, then last night before earnings disney, expectations for disney is earnings per share 1.55 revenue at 15.1 billion dollars, a big, big question, how much revenue will be forgone to the platform, back to you. maria: thanks so much we will watch that, of course, disney after the bell is going to mobile be a market he mover we focus on that later, coming up next a.i. at super bowl how ar

nasdaq, under pressure, of course amazon is under pressure this morning that is one issue, kristina partsineveloshing hoping the report was going to continue as is, status quo we're going to add jobs to the environment, unemployment rate like jon alluded to on your show wasn't going to pick up much due to shutdown the case right now fact we did add more jobs, nonfarm payrolls you are seeing that increase you really are not seeing much reaction in the vix maybe we can bring that up show you the volatility, in the market this is seen, as really not even -- 16.39 so we are talking about that before i went life, that if anything, if you will are want to worry about concern you would see a huge jump there so overall seems everybody relatively positive however, concerned about possible revisions, talking about china still being a major factor and just by guys around me right now, that have seen this report but as you can see, up dow 74 points s&p 3 1/2 still satisfied with this mort. >> thanks very much not everybody is satisfied he stephanie pomboy you've got real concerns about economic backdrop. >>

kristina partsinevelos is with us to tell us what mr.ing. >> he was at the cmn town hall yesterday, and he spoke, said if the numbers don't tally up he may not run but i did go after alexandria ocasio-cortez and two of her policies. the first policy has to do with a 70% marginal tax rate, on those that make 10 million or more. he says that doesn't work. he does say millionaires, billionaires should be taxed more, then asked what they should be taxed at, i don't know the number. the second major thing you just brought up, the green new deal, he went on to say that he doesn't support the deal, doesn't think it is feasible. listen to what he had to say at the town hall. >> i don't understand how you will give a job to everybody, how you will give to free college for everybody, how you are going to create clean energy in the every building in the land. it is immoral we can tally up, 20, 30, $40 trillion of debt to solve a problem that could be solved in a different way. >> we know the green new deal proposed changing structure. he said that

stuart: as you're looking at big board down 85, let me bring in kristina partsinevelos who doesn't lookd with me on this don't tax the rich. >> it is not that i'm not on board. i think we should be discussing the tax loopholes are given to so many people, as opposed taxing wealthy at what alexandria ocasio-cortez at 70% for those making more than 10 million. that is extremely high. i understand capitalism. you work hard to get there. stuart: what loopholes? >> i don't know them because i'm not wealthy and don't have enough money to even get there yet but maybe in the future. i think we should having the discussion so people are not jumping into the lower income tax bracket to avoid higher taxes. and to mike huckabee's comment there, the governor, he said that people, democrats need to get it straight. however if you're looking a new poll from business insider, people are starting to be on board with suggestion of possibly taxing the wealthy a little bit more. elizabeth warren proposing 2% hike on assets. it is pretty much on a wealth tax for those with 50 million or more. stuart: let me

kristina partsinevelos joins us with more on all of this. wait a second. they get an up grade. very nicely. there is worry about being able to service the cars they have already sold. doesn't seem like much after worry if the stock is going up like this? >> precisely. this problem has been online. people have been complaining months and months, it takes weeks for the cars to get serviced. the parts are in different locations. elon musk said he will try to improve that situation. they're seeing stock movement for three reasons. the canaccord report is huge up grade, going to $450. they're saying that the electric vehicle penetration is underappreciated by the street, by investors in general. more and more people are going to get electric vehicles. they believe the margins for tesla will improve. speaking of margins -- stuart: hold on a second. to me that is interesting. the penetration of electric vehicles into our system, is, you know estimated by investors. >> because they don't think, they believe that, more and more people are going to start buying vehicles once the price dr

kristina partsinevelos i hope you tell me how this thing works?y is expected to go public at different times, report from the "wall street journal" saying that the drivers may get a piece of the company, the action once it goes public. i reached out to uber and lyft, both responded back saying no comment. what "the wall street journal" is reporting if you're a lyft driver, you have driven at least 10,000 rides, then you can potentially get a 1,000-dollar cash bonus, which will allow you the option to buy ipo-priced shares. shares at the ipo, which is very rare to get in as regular investor. stuart: look at that. >> if you hit 20,000 rides, potentially $10,000, that is the pay structure for lyft uber, we don't know the details just yet. this gives opportunity for the drivers to feel a part of the company and the get in on the big pop when the companies go public. stuart: 10,000 rides? >> 10,000 rides. these drivers have been around for quite some time, but uber, according to the w j.j. through many reports have been trying very hard to give shares
