Why privacy experts are telling them to think twice. Cheryl and how the hollywood crowds crusade could be fueling the he Global Climate threat. It is wednesday, it is july 31st. Fbn a. M. Starts right now. Cheryl welcome to fbn a. M. Good morning, im cheryl casone. Lauren good morning, im lauren simonetti. Cheryl lets take a look at how your money is moving this morning as we await the feds decision on interest rates, a quarter point cut is highly anticipated today. The dow is higher by 74 points in the premarket, s p up by 6 and a quarter, the nasdaq is up by 32. Lauren on this final day of the month of july, we do get that key decision from the fed. The 10 year treasury yield, 2. 05 . Cheryl as tensions in iran continue, no end in sight right now with destroyers sitting in the waters off the coast there, 58. 34 is the latest read on oil. Lauren in asia, the shanghai composite losing twothirds of a percent after the third month of factory order contraction and all eyes on the hang seng, down 1. 3 overnight. The market closing early as a Tropical Storm approaches. Cheryl in europe there is pressure on u. K. Stocks as fears that the company is going to crash out of the eu this october ramped up. The ftse is in the red. The cac apdax ar and dax are hi. Lauren the debates, 10 candidates took the stage in detroit last night for the Second Democratic president al primary debate, among the t hot topics, medicare for all and immigration. Cheryl Hillary Vaughn has all the details. Reporter if last night voters were preparing to see how a pair of progressives were different, well, they didnt get to see much. Most of the night warren and sanders were teaming up against moderates who picked apart progressive policies like medicare for all, free college and the green new deal. Congressmanjohn delaney has experience in the Healthcare Industry. He told sanders that sanders plan as it is wont pay for itself because medicare pays 80 of the cost, private insurance subsidizes the rest of the 20 . So without private insurance there isnt anyone to cover the extra cost of medicare for all. Ive done the math. Doesnt add up. Maybe you did that and made money out of healthcare. Our job is to run a nonprofit healthcare system. Furthermore, when we say 500 billion a year, by ending all of the incredible complexities that are driving every american crazy, trying to deal with the Health Insurance companies, they will be better off. You have a chance to respond. The math is wrong. Thats all im saying. The question is why do we have to be so extreme. Why cant we give everyone healthcare as a right and allow them to have choice. Im starting to think this is not about healthcare, this is an antiprivate sector strategy. Were going to move on. Reporter warren and sanders support decriminalizing illegal immigration and guaranteeing healthcare to undocumented immigrants. Some critics on the stage said that plan to decriminalize border crossings illegally would incentiveize people to do so. A sane immigration system needs a sane leader and we can do that without decriminalizing, providing healthcare for everyone. And it matters, if we say our law is that we will lock people up who come here seeking refuge, who come here seeking asylum, that is not a crime. If you want to come into the country, you should at least ring the doorbell. Reporter tonight another 10 candidates take the stage including former Vice President joe biden and senator kamala harris. Lauren and cheryl. Lauren so much to watch, hillary. Thank you for that recap. Well have much more of the big moments and what to expect for round two tomorrow, later this hour. Cheryl well, our other top story, it is the day investors have been waiting for, it is decision time for the Federal Reserve. The central bank led by chairman jay powell widely expected to lower shortterm rates by a quarter percentage point for the first time in a decade. This move seen as a proactive step amid uncertainties, whether its trade tensions or a slowing Global Economy or low inflation. President trump who has attacked the central bank time and time again for not cutting rates sooner called on the fed to take action. I would like to see a large cut and id like to see it immediately, quantitative measures stopped.

In fact, treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin and Robert Lighthizer are in shanghai, china right now for day two of talks with top chinese officials as President Trump is ratcheting up pressure on china to quickly reach a deal. Cheryl jessica stonies at the white house with more. Good morning, jessica. Reporter lauren and cheryl, both sides really taking a harder position as they are going into these talks. Were now in day two of those talks and this was the first time they got back to the negotiating table since may when talks broke down. Going into these talks weve seen beijing take a harder position too. Let me put up a piece of Chinese State media for you. Quote, if washington still holds the illusion that beijing will cave in and compromise on issues to reach a deal, then no deal is fine. China will always find a way to withstand any pressure. And heres what President Trump said on tuesday. China is dying to make a deal with me. But whether or not ill do it, its up to me. Its not up to them. Reporter the president continuing to make the argument that the u. S. Economy is strong and getting stronger while the chinese economy is slowing down. Hes also giving his team negotiating room by saying china would love to wait until after the november 2020 election to finalize a deal. But i talked to an industry source who says the real test is whether we see an announcement of the chinese purchases of u. S. Farm goods. Thats the expected outcome and remember of course that the president felt that he had been promised those purchases in japan in exchange for holding off on tariffs and easing up on huawei. The purchases have not been made. That same industry source also tells me that the chinese governmengovernment has startedg the expectations for the chinese public there will be more purchases of u. S. Farm goods in conjunction with previous promises made to the United States and has started talking about giving washington tariff relief. That seems to be read by analysts here as a sign that beijing is willing to budge. Back to you. Cheryl jessica, thank you. Well, we should add that sony is warning its playstation consoles are going to be more expensive if the Trump Administration goes ahead with higher tariffs on additional chinese made products. Sony said it would ultimately damage the u. S. Economy.

Cheryl lets the take a look at futures on do we say it enough. Its fed day, decision day. We are expecting markets are expecting a quarter point cut. But look, if this is the biggest fed decision in years and we think it is, are policy makers do you think going to cave to the president . Dow is up 79 in the premarket, nasdaq, s p as well are higher. If they cave to the president , what does that mean for the markets . Is a large rate cut actually needed . Maybe more than a quarter point. We shall see. Is romance dead . The interest reasons why millennials say they cannot find love. Youre watch cant find love. Youre watching fbn a. M.

It says Tech Companies regularly invest in tools to promote healthy online experiences. Cheryl our next guest says he expects the Federal Reserve will cut rates one more time this year. Lets bring in milton israti, chief economist. Good morning. Pleasure to be here. Cheryl youre expecting a quarter point today . Yeah, i think thats standard and its probably right. Cheryl what about the other rate cut youre expecting . Ive seen a lot of the banks coming out with notes saying they expect three cuts this year and this would be the first. I think theyre getting their hopes and expectations confused. They would like to see three cuts. They would like to see more than that. But i think the feds going to be very cautious on this and taking my cue from powells comments early in june when he explained why he was moving toward cuts and i think the fed will do one again after this, unless we sign a deal with china and then there might be no cuts afteat all after this one. Cheryl does the economy really tell us we need a rate cut right now . There was a op ed in the wall street journal that addressed this issue yesterday, saying it doesnt make sense if the economy is strong. Were at 2. 1 gdp for the Second Quarter. The last time we had a rate cut, 2008, gdp was negative 0. 1. And were at 2. 1 now and unemployment is at historic lows. Back then, unemployment was at i think 6 . So the just a just justificatios different this time. Powell is concerned about two things. One is that the trade war with china will affect the economy down the road so that the Second Quarters is less relevant in that he respect. The other thing i think hes worried about is fears over trade wars will start affecting things. One of the things we noticed in the Second Quarter, and im taking exception to what the wall street journal said, but one of the things we noticed in the Second Quarter was that there was weakness in housing and weakness in capital spending. Those are very heavily influenced by expectations. The consumer is gratifying herself or himself immediately. That was the strength in the economy. I think the fed is right to be proactive here but if we sign the deal, then all these fears dissipate and the fed wont need any further rate cuts. Cheryl another thing were watching is the effect of brexit, not just the u. S. China trade war which is something we expect him to talk about today. We saw pressure on our markets thanks to europe yesterday and a lot of that was coming out of the u. S u. K. And worries what ad brexit would do to the Global Economy, our markets. Is that something you think that hell address today . And what do you think his stance will be, theyre watching and waiting . I think youre right, theyre watching and waiting. I think hell keep it mostly on the United States and the trade situation. I dont know if hell mention the trade r war. I think thats on his mind and other governors of the fed. I think theres a concern we cant go it entirely along and if the Global Economy, the rest of the world is in trouble, the United States will need support, not necessarily today, but will need support. Cheryl well, well see if we get at least a quarter point of support later today. Milton, thank you for being here. Thank you. Cheryl folks, be at home, be watching, youll want to tune in, special Coverage Today of the feds decision. Weve got Charles Payne and his allstar panel. Maria bartiromo will be there, mr. Varney, mr.

Lets talk about apple because they reported last night better than expected numbers including a rise in revenue, 53. 8 billion, this news, check out the shares, theyre up 4. 3 in the premarket. Watch the level, 217, 75. If we hit 220 a share this will be a 1 trillion company. Lets bring in gus gecko, he joins us now. Gus, good morning. Is this the comeback quarter apple needed . Yes, it is. I believe it is. Youre looking at a company that did better than expected in terms of iphone sales. The outlook is better. Theyre conservative in terms of what they look at, in materials of the outlook. Youre looking at better sales looking forward and going into a 5g push in terms of new phones rolling out. Lauren i know the iphone sales were better than expected but theyre still down, down 12 . Yes. Lauren apple has been able to grow its revenue in basically every other segment that it competes in to make up for that. Is that a good strategy Going Forward . Yes. The ecosystem itself is building. So the sales were better than expected but below what it was last year. You ended up having less than 50 of sales are coming from other sources. So the apple watch and really its the software, the stuff thats going through the different products. So whether its your iphone, looking at my apple watch, other things that are going on, but theyre investing in those areas. Lauren 4. 3 billion is what theyre investing on research and development. I know it doesnt sound like a big number but for apple it is. Are you okay with how much theyre dedicating to advancing beyond the iphone. Yes, because theyre going into apple tv. Thats going to tie everything together. Software, this went from nothing and its going to end up being something in the neighborhood of 25 to 30 billion over a short period of time. Lauren ge reports today. Investor looking for two things in my view, the cash drain and any issues on what boeing suggested was a problem with the ge engine from some of boeings newest planes. What do you expect to hear. I think larry culp has done a good job. Hes reducing debt. Theyre looking at margins of thats going to be a big thing in the aviation and other industrial areas. In terms of what youre talking about on the jet, one of the things that was happening was too much thrust. Not to get into the weeds but were looking at can they make an adjustment. I think ge is one of the top engine producers in the world. If you go past the facilities in ohio, you can see theyre running on double and triple shifts. Business may not be as robust as it could have been because of some of the things that are holding up boeing, but i think things are really good. Lauren the stocks up 44 this year. Youre betting on management and larry culp did a fantastic job at danaher and now hes at at ge. Cheryl americans are taking more and more drastic measures to help kids attend college. Theres the College Admissions scandal and we also told you about a trend where parents are giving up guardianship of their kids to help them get financial aid. Are the schools doing enough to help students, to warrant these kind of extremes. Tucker carlson spoke to peter teal who says no. If elite colleges were educating people, if harvard and stanford were educating people and giving them a great education, they should double or triple the enrollment. The closest analogy to business i can come up with is that its Something Like the studio 54 nightclub. You have an incredibly long line outside, only a few people get in and the value comes from being exclusionary. Theyre not inclusive. Theyre exclusionary. Thats where the value comes from. If you think about it as the stanford or yale or hai harvard, studio 54 nights club youre running, its good for the prestige of the students, maybe its bad for morals but it doesnt deserve a tax exemption. Cheryl teal pointed out that schools like harvard and other ivy league names should be first to lose their tax exempt status. Lauren lets check the action on wall street this morning. We have an up market ahead of the feds decision on rates. Will we see the first cut since 2008, over a decade, up ahead of that.

I will. I can do i. But you havent implemented the plan. That is criminal activity, that cannot be allowed to continue. Thank you, senator sanders. Your response . I didnt say we couldnt get there until 2040, bernie. You dont have to yell. I dont think the Democratic Party should be surprised that so Many Americans believe yada, y a ada, yada. Democrats win when we run on things that are workable. I dont understand why anybody goes to the trouble of running for president of the United States just to talk about what we really cant do and shouldnt fight for. Lauren all right. Lets bring in attorney and republican strategist, jonathan madison, along with former Obama Administration appointee, steven cob. Thank you for joining us. Thanks for having us. Lauren healthcare a major topic. I want to ask you, jonathan, first, were you satisfied with how Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders are going to pay for medicare for all and also how does that work in union, michigan . First of all, not at all. I think there was a moment that was selfexplanatory last night when congressman delaney fairly moderate democrat made a point that you cant just take healthcare away from 180 million americans in place of this medicare for all proposal by Bernie Sanders. You cant just do that. Delaney, by the way, is the only person who has real Healthcare Industry experience. And Elizabeth Warrens response to that was, well, thats a republican talking point. [ laughter ] and so i think you have some real concerns when you have candidates calling these things that are very common sense a republican talking point. Its not a talking point. Its actually reality. And i think you see the real divide there. Lauren steven, same question to you. Well, i think the real winner last night was for the moderate mainstream democrat, people like governor Steve Bullock, delaney, hickenlooper, clop char klobuche who talked about common sense proposals where they think they can get bipartisan support and move the country forward in a progressive direction. I think besides the cheers and the foes cuss and the amount of time spent with Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, it was that volume of candidates taking the mantel from the center of the product that spoke loud and true. Lauren i kind of expected as we fight for the soul of the Democratic Party here, i thought there would be a food fight between senator sanders and senator warren, who is the more progressive. But that didnt happen. They complimented each other. It seemed to be everybody else versus them. It was kind of like us versus the world in terms of progressives, because everybody else had Something Else to say that differed and you kind of saw Elizabeth Warren backing Bernie Sanders and bernie kind of backing warren. So they were hand in hand there. Lauren who do you think won, steven . If we look at how much they got to say, total talking time went to Elizabeth Warren with over 18 minutes. The most searched candidate, for instance, on google trends would be marianne williamson. Yet she got some of the fewest, got about nine minutes to speak. What do you make of those trends . Well, i think one of the happiest people has to be governor Steve Bullock. It was his first time on the stage. I think he hammered home his point which is that hes a progressive democrat who won in a trump state. Obviously, Elizabeth Warren appealed to her base and i imagine that both she and Bernie Sanders numbers will continue to remain steady after last night. Its going to be interesting to see kind of where that larger bulk of the party really in the center continues to gravitate after two nights of debates. Lauren jonathan, tonight we have the big matchup between joe biden and kamala harris. But is there a do you have an issue with the way the dnc structured the debates and a lot of people want to see sanders or warren going up against harris and biden. Absolutely. I mean, theres definitely a motive here and i think that youre seeing this for a reason, every candidate matched up against the candidates theyre with. I look forward to seeing what joe biden has to say tonight. I think hes going to do exceptionally well in comparison to his prior debate. Lauren is he going to take the gloves off . I think its time. Remember, hes a former Vice President. He was vetted. Hes done these debates in the past. I think hes going to come out swinging. Lauren jonathan madison, steven cob, we have to leave it there. Thank you for waking up with us, gentlemen, and staying up late. Thanks for having us. Cheryl the governor of california wants to force President Trump to hand over his tax returns. Gavin newsom signed a law that requires president ial candidates to submit five years of tax returns in order to get on the 2020 ballot in that state.

Montana governor and democratic president ial candidate Steve Bullock sued the irs over the rule that limited the information that politically active nonprofit groups needed to provide the government including lists of donors.

It is, yeah. Good morning. Well, the pounds just been sold off in the last couple of days really because of the no deal fears. Weve had government ministers over the weekend on sunday and then on monday really laying down the gauntlet to the eu and saying were happy to leave without a deal. And weve seen as a result of that the market reacted and is pricing in a greater chance of a no deal exit. And while thats bad for the pound and we have seen the pound really sink to lows its not been at since early 2017, its actually been a bit ofs positive for the ftse so weve seen the stock market l rally because of that. Cheryl fed decision, were expecting a quarter point. How crucial is that for europe today . Yeah, its huge. We expect a quarter point cut. We also expect that the fed will need to signal that its prepared to ease a bit more. Weve got 100 basis points of cuts priced into the market over the next 12 months.
