let's go to susan li. this is coming at a time when investors are apparently clear to think all right, things are going back, company are in good shape, earnings are strong. more than a few of them have been citing inflationary pressures. what's going on? >> that's right. over and over again, we have been hearing from the biggest companies complaining about higher prices that they have to pay for labor, fuel and raw materials. so these companies will protect their bottom line so they're going to pass on the costs. clorox being the latest. beer brewers, alcohol makers, food companies, consumer products brands. every earnings call, you had executives asking about inflation and saying prices were going up. clorox wipes will cost more. diaper prices have jumped the past year. budweiser beer being more expensive. nestle ice cream, vodka, starbucks and chipotle. a lot of people say they have to pay more to keep talent. 1/3s of companies say wages went up this spring, which is soaking inflation. the inflation ris

what to make of that and the trend that this could be setting with susan li with the latest. hi, susan. >> the wholesale price that tells us it's not just consumers. but companies are paying more to make their products. you can bet if companies pay more, consumers pay more. wholesale prices have jumped 8%. the fastest since 2010. that is just a day after consumer prices, what you and i are paying, coming in at 5.4%. the highest rate since 2008. chip shortages, lack of labor and the covid impact on supply chains. that's being blamed for the higher prices that companies are shelling out for numerous items are going up in price, companies and consumers. you have energy prices going up by the most in four months. airline tickets have jumped for consumers. food, coffee and cars russia going up. companies are hiking prices on products that they sell. diapers, clorox wipes, beer prices going up because cans and barley costs more. starbucks and washing machines, a spread of the delta variant means that consumers will go out less and take less flights. prices might ease off, something

susan li, thank you very, very much for that. a lot of kids, including my own returning to college very, very soon. the rules, recommendations are varied as number of colleges we have in this country. over at purdue university, the message is that they would like you to get vaccinated. they don't want to order you to do that. but for students and staff, mitch daniels, the guy who runs the university and former indiana governor, former omb director is saying we had it our way we strongly recommend it but we'll not order you to do so. governor, very good to have you. what kind of response are you getting to this policy for returning students, staff, faculty, et cetera? >> first, neil, can i say you look a little different. i'm not making this up. ordinarily at this time i'm looking at you from the weight room or treadmill. i enjoy your show. i'm stationary right now. it feels different. the, i would say we, we were fortunate last year to be i believe the most open university our size in the country, that only happened because of a

susan li here with the very latest.equire proof of vaccination for people going out to restaurants or gyms or indoors. the program will start later on this month. after a transition period even starting mid-september when schools are expected to reopen and more workers are expected back in the offices in manhattan. this policy is similar to mandates issued in france and italy last month. the first of its kind here in the u.s. so de blasio requiring city workers to vaccinate and weekly testing but he offered a $100 incentive for the public. roughly 66% of the adults in new york city have been fully vaccinated. that is according to official data here. there are still pockets in new york city where you have low vaccination rates. de blasio has been reluctant to reinstate any indoor mask mandates like those in other large cities like l.a. and san francisco. but new yorkers will continue to eat outdoors, dine outdoors without showing proof of vaccination. if you get indoor venues using the state's new app, excelsior app or p

susan, thank you very very much, susan li, following all those developments.h labor secretary walsh that they want to take some of the funds from the american rescue plan and utilize them to prolong unemployment benefit beyond their september deadline. now you might recall a number of states have already cut short those extended benefits. this seems to be an attempt to run around that, mitch roschelle joins us macro trends advisors founding partner. mitch what do you think of this? >> um, just when we thought it was safe to get people back to work, this curve ball. listen, neil, there were three reasons that were widely cited by proponents of that supplement al $300 keeping people out of the workplace. one was perhaps that supplementa l benefit and the second was health concerns in the workplace and the third was child care concerns. well, child care concerns are thrown, you know, for a wiz right now, because we have schools maybe opening, maybe not opening, and then we have workplaces not fully opened. i couldn't imagine something more disruptive right now to

fox business correspondent susan li and charlie gasparino. great to have you here today. we just watched the president pitch this to the american people as a way to build back better. susan, you first. >> i have to say when we talk to small business, the number 1 complaint is finding the people to fill the jobs. right now we have one million job openings. more -- basically what is happening, you heard from uber, mcdonalds. they can't find the right people to fill the jobs because of the benefits. if you cut them, those states that cut them off, people come back faster. that's something that needs to be focused on. >> martha: the "wall street journal" wrote a piece on this. nobody should be surprised when you pay people not to work, millions decide not to work. it's bad for the economy, bad for employers and bad for the workers themselves whose skills erode as they make themselves depend dent on politicians and the welfare state. >> and horrible for the economy. there's a tax increase in here. it's stealth. it's called inflation. inflation is embedded more and more in the e

i want to go to susan li. we should point out that a number of institutions including wells fargo and black rock has pushed back their in-person to work as well as amazon has pushed it in to next year. what's going on here? >> that might be the trend. amazon is the latest of the big tech giants to delay the return to the office for corporate staff at least. as you mentioned, not just a month but for the rest of the year. that's longer than apple, alphabet, microsoft and facebook, which are also targeting a return to work sometime this fall. it's not just technology. if you look at finance, media, insurance companies also all delaying or mostly delaying their office returns. so black rock just announcing today that employees will get an extra month to work at home. so they're delaying until october. same for wells fargo. they're pushing the return to early next year. air b&b already says september 02022. there's a growing number of workers that have to get vaccinated before they come back in. this week microsof
