liz claman is going to have it. hey, liz. liz: a lot of breaking coverage, 24 hours a day, thank you, trish. the senate will take another stab at health care. moments ago at the white house, senate majority leader mitch mcconnell set the stage confirming another vote next week on a motion to proceed to the bill to repeal and/or replace obamacare. he wasn't clear on exactly what it would look like. this comes more than an hour after the president pulled a u-turn at the white house once republican senators had taken their seats at the lunch table. president pitched the positive of obamacare pushing members to keep favorite parts of it, bashing biggest problems and lobbying the bill's fixes. less than 24 hours after he said drop, it let it implode, we don't want it on the democrats. president trump said senators should not leave for august recess until a health care bill. tomorrow was tax reform, now a health care bill on his desk saying he favors repeal and then replace. he's got his pen in hand and rushing to sign. blake burma

liz: hold on. of dodd-frank or slg, dicing of some of the regulation. >> you're right, repair or replace. not necessarily a complete repeal. that would be positive for the banks if you roll back some regulations and lower capital reserves imposed within the big banks, make it better. the same thing we're trying to do with obamacare. we're not trying to necessarily repeal it but we're trying to repair it. it hasn't worked. liz: let me quickly ask you about janet yellen. folks, some of your eyes glaze over but she will start mattering tomorrow. tomorrow is the two-day eggses is and her policy report before congress. the house first and then the senate. used to be called humphrey-hawkins. does she have the potential to move the markets around? >> i want to see if she gives certainty and clarity of unwinding $4.5 trillion balance sheet that matters for the markets an investors because we know they're raising rates. if they're undoing the balance sheet, stocks may have not factored that into the market.

hey, there, liz. liz: yeah, thank you, trish. regarding this riots and fights in germany, we've got two completely opposite scenes coming out of hamburg, germany at this hour. global leaders in the left including president donald trump, germany angela merkel, and others attending a g20 concert while on the right, riot relief. battle antiprotesters with water canons. so while beethoven ninth ti riots are engaging in hand-to-hand combat with police. the concert just wrapping up right now. it was the handshake heard around the world. president trump's first encounter with russian president vladimir putin yields the promise of a agreed upon cease-fire in southern syria. the two leaders spent more than two hours huddling together on the sidelines in the g20 summit in germany. but the backdrop the protesters disrupting the summit as violence injure dozens of police and keep g20 participants, including first lady melania trump on lock down. has our blake berm also on lock down. he's there live in hamburg with up to the minute details on

liz: all right. that was stephen mnuchin, health and human services secretary tom price along with labor secretary alex acosta along with nancy berryhill, acting social security director. at the moment, what the news really tells you is that medicare runs out in 12 years. medicare last year ran out in 11 years. but social security is still a little bit i have if. the -- iffy. the disability retirement insurance runs out in about 2034. but it's a stable, rell tvly stable number -- relatively stable number. remember, you have to compare apples to apples. sometimes they combine both the social security and disability insurance to the older care retirement numbers. so at the moment as we look at this, the market has been about, i would say, locked in half from the highs of the session where we were up about 35. right now the dow is up 16. let me bring in two former cbo directors, doug elmendorf and don marin. great to have both of you, gentlemen. from what you just heard -- and we'll get to the health ca

[ laughter ] the brand kind of started off as t-shirts, and it just kind of grew really quickly. then marcus challenged us to do more of a collection, which is what we have here to show you today. so, this is our basic v-neck, which is made out of bamboo with a little bit of rayon and spandex in it to give it that soft feel. liz: oh, i like the little airplane. -brooke: oh, very cute. -patrick: yeah, so that's kind of, like, our brand identifier, with the airplane on there. -liz: that's very cute. -patrick: thank you. liz: and what would the retail on this be? patrick: this would retail for $60. liz: okay. i like that. -brooke: very of the moment. -liz: yes. patrick: then, this is our slouch hoodie. it's longer in the back, shorter in the front. we like to do a couple things that make it more versatile to give it more value. the cool thing

liz: okay. let me for a moment stick up for jeff sessions, only because the other day it was announced, and our gerri willis covered did extensively because she's our person when it comes to things like medicare fraud. i announced the arrest, chris of 400 doctors, nurses, and who knows what else. business people who were basically just raping medicare. fraud. all kinds of problems, and he arrested 400 of them, and it was totaling about $1.3 billion. there was that. but also, his crack down on ms13, the gang members who have saturated certain areas of long island. that's tough enough, isn't it? >> yeah. i think he is tough enough. and watching the president beat on jeff sessions, who was loyal to him, who was there early and often and first and foremost for him. it's like watching a man kick his dog. it shows no loyalty on the president's part, and i feel for jeff sessions. and let me tell you who else feels for him. there are 52 republican senators right now who say to themself if the president

liz: you say buy here. when you come down and buy a stock not at top of the chart. >> it's a great opportunity. liz: i mentioned on occasion i've been known to lunch on a hershey bar. so what about that stock? is that sort of amazon resistant outside of apparel and retail? >> i'm glad you're a fan. really tough to ship one hershey bar through the mail. it is impulse type of item. somewhat resistent to some of the trends. you need people to go outside of their homes. chocolate that is not a category that sees private label competition. liz: very possible. finally google. we've been talking about how it might react in wake of reversal of net neutrality, the obama era law. what do you think it does if something like that is successful, or, or it isn't? donald trump wants to get rid of it? >> it is hard to see at&ts and comcasts of the world blocking your youtube or blocking your searches. i think they really have great content. it is in demand. digital advertising continues to take share. that is the real stor

liz: common sense.tuart: quick check of amazon, prime market is upon us, they've down $2 despite the government of india saying that amazon can deliver groceries if they wish. it will probably open a few bucks shy of 1,000 a share. the high was 1017. that was in june. we'll be down a couple of points, if not dead flat. we'll be back to cover that opening bell after this. potsch: you each drive a ford pickup, right? (in unison) russ, leland, gary: yes. gary: i have a ford f-150. michael: i've always been a ford guy. potsch: then i have a real treat for you today. michael: awesome. potsch: i'm going to show you a next generation pickup. michael: let's do this. potsch: this new truck now has a cornerstep built right into the bumper. gary: super cool. potsch: the bed is made of high-strength steel, which is less susceptible to punctures than aluminum. jim: aluminum is great for a lot of things, but maybe not the bed of a truck. potsch: and best of all, this new truck is actually- gary: (all laughing) oh my.

liz: why? this. >> maybe he's looking for some sneaker taxes. [laughter] stuart: chipotle stock down again. people getting sick in a restaurant in virginia. neurovirus suspected. it's not the first time at chipotle. the chain was hit by neurovirus and e. coli outbreaks in 2015. zayn is with us. apple metro ceo. he's in the food service industry big time. why does this keep happening? >> well, you know, stuart, the thing that worries me most all the time is about that. so i would guess to some degree this is from employees and lack of engaged employees. we have a situation where whenever an employee goes to the restroom, he's to wash his hands and his timer is he has to sing god bless america. then he knows he's finished washing. until then, he's not. so chipotle is spoken wheel; right? so the wheel is chipotle corporate. they're not franchised. i'm not advocating franchised, by the way. but they're all corporately owned. but to keep control from that hub, from that wheel is really difficult. th

liz: yes, 80% off, 85. stuart: really. liz: sure, i've done it.ing outfit for-- >> i could see you taking that. stuart: stop laughing, shellady, i can hear you from london. let's get to politics, if we get a slowdown in the president's growth agenda, what will it do to stocks? i ask this question, scott, because health care looks dicey and so, too, does tax reform. what will it do to stocks if we don't get health care reform and don't get tax reform? what happens? >> well, two words, sentiment and confidence. if you run a bunch of salespeople in your firm and they go out to try to sell your products and ask them how they did and they say, well, we had a great meeting. you really can't buy anything with a great meeting. you need to sell something and make some money, right? so we're up here on sentiment and confidence, but we haven't made any money. we haven't shown-- the rubber hasn't met the road. we haven't seen the proof in the pudding. if it doesn't and they faulter, stocks have to back off because of that because the expectations, we're back

liz: but to ashley's points.0 a barrel or 65, i heard-- i'm talking about the break point power of oil where it's not cost effective to drill. charles: under 40, i think, but we'll see. some experts say a three-handle and be profitable. we'll see. tech stocks, guys, they've been hit the last couple of weeks. shah, we've got rebound at the open. is this the day that we start to see the overall bounceback in tech? >> i'm not worried at all about the tech. actually we call it a bull pac. looked like program trading and consumers decide they're going to take profit here. you see that kind of action when normally investors don't just dump like that. the fact that it happened quickly doesn't bother me at all. that's profit taking and taking profits at high levels. there's nothing wrong with that. all of them have been stabilized and tech stocks are probably a buy. any spur in the dip and some names makes them a buy. >> some viewers may be old enough for some saying that in 2000. don't worry about it, take this dip up.

liz. subtitles, i want to capture everything and i'm going to watch it tonight. stuart: subtitles. liz: you see dialog you don't hear, you miss a lot of dialog. stuart: you've got me there. okay. let's move on quickly, to netflix. they've got a popular series narcos. they start september 1st and netflix reports financial situations and profits at the closing bell this afternoon, liz. liz: i've gone through the balance sheet and doing the math on it, they are borderline, it's going to sound tough. insolvent. $20 billion in debt. stay with me, half their debt is off the balance sheet things like buying content. only half a billion in crash, securities on the balance sheet. again, $20 billion in total debt. half is off the balance sheet. they have to sell themselves to apple or disney and netflix is saying we're going into countries around the world. countries around the world, people there would not pay $10 a month. there's a lot of pirating going on overseas, cheaper content services overse

liz: mike is right.s bill tried to be everything to everyone and with the way the republicans are fighting, better l 3k fin mng a lnicorn. it was a frankenstein bill. the republicans won three elections saying them gre going to repeal and replace and they're going to the mid terms not having a victory here. who gets the blame, with the care. who gets the blame? >> i think and certainly there's a propinse of what can happen in washington, but we've seen the struggles go on and on and on. liz: i hear what you're saying, ash. ashley: the markefit decouple a litlighte. liz: the markets have gone up $3 trillion in stocks ig so we. ash is posig sbly righ the e tha lot of stock value. stuart: over my shoulder i can see scott shellady still in london. weigh in on this, please, scott, are we going to get the tax cuts that we were promised? >> i think they're watered down. i'm embarrassed i'm s 3ked in by this. number two, i come from a background, if you shake a man's hand you can judge a man's character by the c

liz: we hit the closing bell, gentlemen, thank you. the dow punching up 85 points, jumping exponentialliesa the closing bell rings, amazon off the bat. david: what is going on with the markets? after it looked like it was going to swoon, another record close for the dow. celebrating a brand-new all-time high for the second day in a row. it may trend higher as we finish in the close. stocks getting kicked around on the s&p and nasdaq after an early boost from facebook and amazon with the tech high losing a little steam today. hi, everybody, i'm david asman. melissa: i'm melissa francis, this is "after the bell". more on the big market movers. here's what else we are covering during this very busy hour. feeling the heat on health

i'm sending it over to liz right now. liz: you can see the violence developing. off to quite a start. clashed with protesters right now. they were firing water cannons. with the intake capitalist demonstration. police expect that. 100,000 protesters far outweigh the number of police there. being attended to by global leaders including president trump. the present was just wrapping up a long day. it ends in germany at this moment he is finishing dinner with the leader of the south korea in japan allies. with the regime of. they are not backed up by those. what you're seeing here moments ago the crowds bearing down. as we mentioned the water cannons dispersing them. but then they continue to move an assault against these riot police which are far outnumbered by those protesters. it is a very difficult situation at this moment. they try to protect all the world leaders from the g20. we are also waiting for details of the presidents meeting with germany's resident. next up the historic first meeting tomorrow. here is the question. will interference in our election co

liz: they want it.six months to keep up with demand. liz: that's right. stuart: good luck. it's a good number. >>> this jersey, worn by new york yankees star aaron judge worn during hess first game, i just sold. i'll tell you. $160,000. most expensive game-worn jersey from any u.s. sport the last 15 years. they must think that boy is going places. >> that's right. stuart: wait for it. he is coming. judge napolitano back from endless vacation, suntanned and all, making his return to "varney & company." he has a smile on his face. wait until he gets inside. we'll be back. ♪ ♪ approaching medicare eligibility? you may think you can put off checking out your medicare options until you're sixty-five, but now is a good time to get the ball rolling. keep in mind, medicare only covers about eighty percent of part b medical costs. the rest is up to you. that's where aarp medicare supplement insurance plans insured by unitedhealthcare insurance company come in. like all standardized medicare supplement insurance

liz: he's transparent.ng for western values and what is right and good about the united states. charles: okay. let's go back out to hamburg and go to blake burman for an upda update. >> and the police are behind me right now. [laughter] this gives you a little bit of the flare here. we're going to let them go by. >> as you can probably guess the president of the united states is about to be in town and so are world leaders, lots of police here. we expect the president to be on the ground at any moment, charles. the way the deay lays out, until he has the meet with angela merkel, bilateral meeting at that. the president's first appearance, one of the first appearances in poland, made some interesting comments as relates to democracy and person values in which he said, i'm quoting here, charles, about the invisible danger, the steady creep of bureaucracy, that drains the vitality and people. the west became great not because of regulations about you because people were allowed to chase their dreams and pursue

liz: prices are higher.to stop real estate agents knocking on people's doors, would they be interested in selling their home. they're so desperate for inventory. stuart: what is wrong with doing that? ashley: depends what the offer is. that is what is all about. stuart: why pass a law to stop doing it. liz: seriously stop a law doing that? don't you have bigger things and big are issues? stuart: it is new jersey. liz: which has big are issues. stuart: yes they do. we're down eight points, 33 minutes into the session. that is not a big loss. we're still at 21,632. amazon and microsoft hitting all time highs. microsoft reports its numbers after the bell today. it earlier reached over $74 a share. son story of the day, it is about sears. they're selling kenmoore products on amazon. that is why sears is up 20%, the amazon connection. despite positive signs in the market many voters feel pessimistic. new "fox news poll" shows 82% of voters are extremely or very concerned about health care. 81% are concerned about

liz: it's uncertainty. the insurance industry and healthcare industry in general doesn't know what they are look at over the next two years. but we'll know shortly. i don't think this is something that will go on for the next year in this debate. we'll get to the conference, i suspect and they will try to cobble together something that doesn't lose more than two senators. but you talked about what a mess it is. john mccain had a purpose in making his passionate address on the floor of the senate. he said this is the way we do things. it's not pretty, but it's deliberative. >> as you look forward, what do you see happening here? >> i think they will get something through the skinny repeal they are talking about to get to conference and move the ball forward and keep the game going. that's the most of important thing. if they don't pass anything, they lose the reconciliation instruction and then it's game over. i think they will get -- it may not much but they will get something out and get to conference. ger
