There are two parts to the story here. The first is the spike in coronavirus cases which the market seems to be shrugging off. But the second part is stimulus, extension of the ppp program. Which is more important right now. At least when it comes to investors. I think the shrugging off part is the most important. Investors saying no matter what happens with the coronavirus well not go back into lockdown and number two, the ppp and other stimulus measures will over the past several months help dampen the blow lets say. Jackie right. Sometimes the markets can be spot on sort of looking forward. You mentioned the fact they think no more shutdowns. Well continue to recover. The economy is going to reopen slowly but surely. Sometimes the markets will get it wrong. What if there is an unforeseen event here . What if the young people that are contracting the virus do potentially spread it to the more vulnerable and older populations . What if the market is miscalculating adam . I dont think it is unforeseen event at all, that youre describing, jackie. It is a foreseen event and it is probably what es e is going to happen. The as you say the market on some days gets it right and on other days get it wrong. It is what it is. Seems to me mortality rates will follow case rates and, maybe some things wont shut down but many, many things will. So i think well see days where the market doesnt have such a cup half full view as it has today. Jackie final question, real quick, look at the nasdaq, another record day. Do you think tech has moved too far too fast . Some investors are saying, you know, it is a little too hot . Well on one hand, sure, the tech cant outrun the economy by, you know, it cant lap the economy by too many laps. That said, these tech stocks are way better than the rest of the companies in the economy and so, it is not wrong that theyre out ahead. It is just a question how much they should be out ahead by. Jackie think about a company like amazon that has done so well during the pandemic because its been providing services to so many folks who need things. Adam, stick around with us. Ashley, over to you. Ashley jackie, thank you very much. Time now to head over to Edward Lawrence at the white house for the very latest developments in washington. Edward . Reporter you know the president , talk about coronavirus and vaccines the president says well have a vaccine long before the end of the year. The markets may have liked those comments here even though the white house is defending that comment even though the fda commissioner would not go that far in an interview. He would only say once the science permits it there will be a vaccine. There is positive news towards a vaccine. President is saying 99 of the coronavirus cases are harmless. The white house backing up that statement. Listen. The president was noting the fact that the vast majority of americans who contract coronavirus will come out on the other side of this. Of course he takes this very seriously. Of course no one wants to see anyone in this country contract covid. Why the administration fought hard to make sure that is not the case with our historic response efforts. Reporter masks are part of it. The white house says masks will be handed out at the next Campaign Rally next saturday. On the payroll protection program, the white house says it was successful program. The press secretary will not say whether the president will push that as part of another round of stimulus. Only that he wants to have payroll tax relief. Ppp funding, they have done an extraordinary jobe with that. Small businesses across the country have gotten it. We kept people on payrolls. Were very pleased with the progress thats been made there and the continuing functioning of the pp. Reporter would he veto a bill that would not have the payroll tax relief in it . I dont want to set parameters or conditions. That will be up to the president when the bill arrives on his desk. Reporter there were dozens of questions in the briefing about the confederate flags and confederate stat tuesday at the end of briefing, there was not one question about dozens of deaths that happened across the nation in chicago, new york and elsewhere. Ashley edward, thank you very much. For the very latest details on the coronavirus pandemic, lets go to fox newss Jonathan Serrie who is in atlanta. Jonathan . Reporter hi, there, ashley. We crunched the latest numbers coming out of Johns Hopkins university to get a picture whats happening with the new surge in coronavirus cases and what we found is the sevenday average of new cases increased 134 over the past month while deaths decreased 39 during that same period. What does that mean . Experts say much of this is because fatalities can lag more than a week after hospitalization but also patients getting infected in this second wave tend to be younger and doctors are improving their ability to care for hospitalized patients. Florida set a record for new cases, 11458, over the 4th of july holiday. City of miami beach closed its beach to discourage crowds. Neighboring, is asking to close gyms, Short Term Rentals starting wednesday. Texas question closed bars reported highest single increase on july 4, 2858 new cases. That is in a single day. New york city, once the epicenter of the outbreak is trying to maintain a downward trend by keeping restaurant dining rooms closed as the state or the city enters its phase three reopening today. We got so much data from around the country, indicating Indoor Dining unfortunately became a real nexus for infection in a way that other types of, you know, Economic Activity werent. Reporter over the weekend the World Health Organization announced discontinuing Clinical Trials of the drug hydroxychloroquine and lopinovier as treatment for hospitalized patient the. W. H. O. Said interim results suggest that there may be safety concerns. They didnt really show any difference in mortality rates. Ashley, back to you. Ashley no doubt, the cases are up. Jackie, back over to you. Blockbuster deal. Uber is going to buy postmates for 2. 65 billion in an allstock deal. Adam lashinsky is still with us. Lets talk about this deal because uber went after grubhub t wasnt able to purchase that company and they wanted to make sure they were going to get postmates to fold that service into uber eats. Your thoughts . Well, uber is sort of revolutionized the transportation world to create an verb, i will uber there but the uberbusiness collapsed with covid. It was never a moneymaker to begin with. A few years ago uber started to make food delivery from restaurants, that is known as uber eats. That is one thing that is eating right now. What we see with the failed grubhub acquisition and potentially successful postmates acquisition is uber more than doubling down on the one strategy that is providing growing revenues for the company right now. Jackie lets talk about the price tag for a second, 2. 65 billion. It was higher, negotiations occurred over the weekend and it was reported last week and last week sources were telling me postmates said if it didnt get the dollar value it wanted it would go ahead with an ipo. But you look at a number like that, adam, in the kind of market were in, in the Technology Market that could be a little top heavy, you say investors are bitings here. Uber was up 6 today. Theyre biting. To investors, investors are the hammer that everything looks like a nail and this nail here for uber is cost cutting. So by buying a company that has some presence, big presence in los angeles, one big american city, investors can see how uber can cut out another layer of their own administrative costs and be somewhat more efficient and they can translate that into a 6 gain on the stock price but youre, the way, your initial question is, is spot on. It is a very, very high price tag for a company that maybe could have gone public, maybe couldnt have. Jackie lets take a look at facebook, adam, because it is under fire. Walgreens joining more than 500 companies to pull ads from the tech giant over its handling of hate speech. As Ceo Mark Zuckerberg prepares to meet with civil rights advocates behind the complaints tomorrow. You know, zuckerberg has been very strategic in this whole situation. Maybe twitter being a little bit more proactive here. But perhaps his sitting back and being a little bit more cautious and hesitant to act, do you think it will cost facebook . I mean, it might. Heres my guess. In the short term yes, in the long term no. I agree with you, he has been very strategic. I listened to some of these companies. I think the original rallying cry was were going to, were going to boycott facebook in july. When i heard that, i thought to myself, what do you mean in july . I mean the fact is facebook produces for these companies. This advertisi works. So my cynical prediction is that the advertisers will come back because it helps them do business. Jackie how much does it move forward the conversation, adam, how much control these companies should have . What they should be censoring, what they shouldnt be sensorring . Are they social media companies. Are or are they Tech Companies . Or publishers. Jackie right, publishers. I think it moves forward the conversation and this, you know, the conversation in washington where these, where the ceos will come and talk about it, it all moves it forward. My sort of question or challenge is, then what . We know nothing will happen in 2020. We have to wait to see what the congress and the white house look like in 2021. Maybe something will happen. Maybe they will even do a better job of screening the awful stuff off their platforms which broadcasters and publishers we understand today take care of because they have to. But maybe they wont. Jackie it will be interesting to see for sure. Something very closely watched. Adam, thank you so much. Ashley. My pleasure, thank you. Ashley just another look at todays tech rally. Amazon closing above 3,000 for the first time but microsoft, apple, tesla, having big days. Netflix also hitting a new record, yes, the nasdaq up 2. 25 . That kind of day for big tech. All right, moving on, a nation on edge. Vice president mike pence meeting right now with the Coronavirus Task force as local leaders grapple with a safe path forward.

Get zero percent apr financing for up to five years on select models and exclusive lease offers. Ashley a Coronavirus Task force meeting is underway at this hour. Vice president mike pence joining with other members to discuss the uptick in virus cases across the u. S. The administration insists there will be no mask mandate despite calls for a National Strategy. Take a listen. And yet when we look at masks and wearing of masks, thats done on a location basis, when you cant have social distancing but certainly a National Mandate is not in order. Were allowing our governors and our local mayors to weigh in on that. Ashley all right. Here to discuss is Dan Henninger from the wall street journal. Dan, great to see you. Youre also of course a fox news contributor, cant forget that. Dan, i get the sense this will be a growing, growing issue for the democrats. Cuomo blasting the president accusing him of enabling the virus, downplaying the threat of the virus, pointing to what they say should be a National Strategy. What is your opinion on all of this . Well, looks to me, ash, though it is going to center around the idea whether we need a quote, unquote, mandate to wear masks at the National Level and, i mean, just think about it for two seconds and its quite obvious a mandate would not be in the least bitten forcible. What police out there is supposed to run around chasing people who are or not Wearing Masks . It would same reason a lot of the social distancing does. Ash, there is a lot of public mistrust of authorities on the coronavirus. They keep getting mixed messages. It is not clear what people should do. Partly that is because the coronavirus, the science itself is not wellunderstood and so the authorities have kind of defaulted to the most conservative points of view on this. And that with reopening is a point of view and a position that really has been breaking down. I think it has been difficult to convince people to do things like this. Ashley i think youre right. I want to pull back, just talk about the Trump Campaign in general. It was interesting, i was watching karl rove and he was saying, time for the trump Many Campaign to hit reset button. When youre in the barrel, a lot of bad press, polls are against you, you need to do something to move in a different direction. That is ma i mean by reset. Ashley is he right, dan . Is this time for the Trump Campaign to reassess and perhaps remessage . I dont know whether i go so far to say they need to reboot completely. I would like to emphasize two things. The country has just gone through an extraordinary period. First the pandemic, unlike anything in our lifetime, maybe going back to the polio epidemic back in the 1950s, and second the nonstop protests running for nearly five weeks now over the killing of george floyd. This has been a lot for the American Public to absorb. I think people are looking for a period of stability now and normalcy and reset really has to be kind of in the heads of the American People. I thought the president made a very good start in this respect with that speech at Mount Rushmore where he pushed back against the politics of the left. Talked eloquently about what the United States represents and that is an argument that i think could carry him pretty far into the election. Especially since the democrats and their standardbearer, joe biden are indeed affiliated at least spiritually with what the protesters are demanding which is a complete revision of the american idea. Ashley yeah, the speech you talk of, the one the New York Times called dark and divisive. Talking to joe biden, he has been tweeting and writings opeds, says hey, listen the president right now is derailed us from democracy. Im going to transform this country. My first thought was, well youve been in politics here for more than 40 years, what exactly have you transformed up to now . What do you think, dan . Yeah. That is really good question. I mean he has not been a major figure other than the fact he was a senator for a long time and then vice president. Look, were going to have the conventions. Probably they will be virtual. There will be a lot of speeches. I dont think there is any doubt, most of the democrats will be aligning themselves with the protests that have taken place, expressing a vision of america that i suspect a lot of americans dont share and then, joe biden himself, is going to have to appear at these conventions. He will have to campaign and indeed debate donald trump. If i had any advice for the president , it would be to let bidens behavior speak for itself. You do not have to take this guy down personally. He will do it to himself. The demeanor that the president showed and displayed at that Mount Rushmore speech was extraordinarily effective. I think thats kind of what the American People are looking for here over the next four months. Ashley i think you are right. Dan henninger as always. Great stuff, dan. Thanks for joining us. Jackie, back to you. Good to be with you, ash. All right. A slow return to the skies. July 4th weekend setting a new travel record since the start of the pandemic but airlines are still facing a long road to normalcy. Were live from Laguardia Airport where things stand.

Jackie a Record Number of travelers taking to the skies for the 4th of july holiday, the most since the pandemic began. Some airlines are beginning to book full flights as they bounce back. Kristina partsinevelos live from Laguardia Airport in queens, new york, with that story. Kristina. Reporter gablingky, youre right, this past weekend was right now i will be honest we struggled toe even find one passenger for the tv shot because this airport is completely empty at the moment. A lot of airlines are trying to insure that theyre putting in safety protocols. I spoke to one traveler, said really, all boils down to one thing and thats money. Listen in. All the airlines are trying to adhere to regulations and what not, when you physically get on the planes theyre not sticking to the individual regulations. Feels like theyre looking out for their bottom dollar, rather than the safety of their patrons. Reporter we did see a little bit after travel bump this weekend. Overall according to tsa this thursday, pretty much the start of the long holiday weekend. Woe saw 764,000 people traveling, down 64 compared to last year.

Fox newss phil keating is in florida with the details. Phil . Reporter hi. As coronavirus cases continue to climb there are reversals now happening of all the reopenings that materialized a couple of months ago, at least in south florida, not statewide. The beaches down here remain closed for one more evening. They should be reopening tomorrow in Miamidade County after the 4th of july weekend shutdown, to keep crowds at bay and fireworks were all snuffed out. The county marry viiv ad 10 p. M. Curfew.

New jerseys governor also now reporting the first rise in cases in that state in the past 10 weeks, blaming it on outofstate travel. Back to you. Jackie phil, thank you so much for that. Ashley, were seeing phase three of new yorks reopening without Indoor Dining as well. Ashley we are as well, so tough for restaurants who are battling this pandemic and lockdown for so long. Im talking of phase three. A phase three trial is about to begin. Regeneron bringing, antiviral, antibody cocktail they call it a mouthful, into the next phase of testing. The company is looking to enroll 2000 patients across the u. S. Time now to bring in dr. Nicole saphier, fox news contributor. Doctor, thanks for joining us. Now that we gotten to phase three on this, how encouraging is that . Anytime you get to late faces, face phase two, phase three, that is encouraging that some level of safety and it actually works. Now matter putting it to the test with larger scale populations and theyre trying to recruit 2000 people. The good news it is just not this one study. Theyre actually doing this antibody cocktail in four different populations. It is not people who are severely ill in the icu. Theyre looking at preventatives. With highrisk, with comorbidity, acting with covid to see if they can prevent them from getting infected. Theyre also looking at it from the treatment standpoint. Those in the hospital and those with covid19 but theyre not in the hospital. Theyre looking at this from all realms. This is just not only as we move forward. People we know the far majority of people will require icu care. We need treatments going into the flu season, fall months, those with more mild some or prevent it all together to make sure they dont get get into the hospital. Im extremely optimistic about moving into phase three with the studies. Im looking forward to the results. Ashley if youre encouraged i am. How far away from the vaccine, if we all take vaccine and move on with our lives, how far away are we do you think realistically . Goodness, we have broken records in terms of getting vaccines to phase three trials. We have more Companies Looking for vaccines than any other time before but the truth is phase three trials can take anywhere from six months to four years so we dont know but it is certainly a race to get a vaccine, to get treatments and i can tell you they are going to continue to pushing forward to make sure we get these vaccines, get these treatments as soon as possible. Is it realistic to think well have a vaccine by the end of summer . Probably not. I would say early 2021. I am optimistic well have a lot more Treatment Options as we enter flu season. Ashley as we wait for that doctor, weve had several reports on this show alone, were seeing the spikes, and certainly in the sunbelt states but now even new jersey reporting an uptick. How concerned are you about these surges, these spikes in these cases . Im definitely concerned. Were in the middle of a Global Pandemic right now. It is by no means over but i want to make one thing clear. If you think about new jersey, new york, where we were in march and april, very different when youre comparing numbers. We didnt have the amount of testing that we did. We were testing those that were symptomatic, those who were ill, those hospitalized. Now theyre testing seemingly healthy individuals which is why youre seeing so many positives. Youre really getting an idea how much of this is this asymptomatic. Some studies showing 30 to 40 of people are asymptomatic. Yes thats true, that big portion of people wont get that ill with this virus but heres the problem, they are contagious. They can transfer it to someone else. They can give it to their loved ones, their families, neighbors, colleagues. While the majority of people will be okay with covid19 we want to continue to take care of those around us. Were all about community. All we have to do right now is lessen the spread while science catches up to give us those treatments, continue to protect the elderly which numbers show were doing. The reason the deaths havent caught up because the elderly, those with comorbidities are staying home. They learned what they can do to protect themselves. Deaths tend to have a little bit of a lag, onetoe three weeks. Possible well see increase next two or three weeks but i can only hope we continue in the downtrend. Ashley doctor, we have only 30 seconds do we have much better handle on covid19 . I know viruses can change and go in different directions. Do you feel like the medical community has a good handle on this now . Were closing in on a vaccine and eventually be able to move on to live with this . Were certainly going in the right direction. We are in a much better place than we were a few months ago. Do we have a handle on the situation . That is very subjective term. Were very much better than we were couple months ago in terms of understanding this virus but a lot of work still needs to be done. Ashley as always, but great stuff.

If you want to by this 44,000dollar f150. This wouldnt map to you, but if after you bought the car you got fired, ford will actually take it back. If the vehicle lost any value, which of course new vehicle would, they will eat it. Take a look what is called ford promise this is a new program, just started, if you buy a car from ford before september 30th, it has to be fairly new car, 2019, 2020, 2021, if you get it from a dealer, finance it through ford, you lose your job, they will take it back up to total of lost value of 15,000, and it doesnt hurt your credit, no questions asked. No problem, of course unless you wreck the car. Then you have got to get it fixed. Why . Because auto sales in the dumper. Look at q2. Some of the biggest Auto Companies that sell the most cars in the u. S. Had the worst sales declines, 30 , between 30 and 40 essentially for gm and fca, ford, about 33 and toyota. The only good news i have for you, ashley, is that, in terms of retail sales that is out here at the dealership. This is lake shore ford, in indiana, here in chesterton, indiana, retail didnt do as bad as fleet sales and sales to rental companies. You can imagine, nobody is renting cars right now. Hertz is in bankruptcy. Theyre not buying cars from the big automakers. So they really got hit. Retail a little bit better but they still need to do much better if theyre going to make any money in 2020. Join the club. Ashley long way to come back for sure. Jeff, youre the hardest working man in showbusiness. Dont worry about that. Thank you again from the ford dealership in chesterton, indiana. Jackie, over to you. Jackie thanks, ash. One family is making it their life mission to educate young people on the importance of rideshare safety. One year ago their daughter Samantha Josephson was murdered after getting into a car she thought was her uber. Here now with us, samanthas parents, seymour and marcy josephson, creators of, whats my name,. Org. We have tracy breeden, head of uber Global Safety and genderbased violence programs. Seymour, marcy, let me go ahead to start with you first, offer you my condolences. I remember reading about this last march. For any woman across the country that uses these Rideshare Services it was absolutely terrifying and heartbreaking at the same time. How are you able to go through this tragedy to try to get something positive out of it, to educate others . Thank you for having us, first. We, you know, we just knew what samantha would want and she was going to law school. She was going to go to law school to help others and, we, that is how we brought her up. That is her nature and, you know, when this happened we wanted to make sure this would never happen to anyone else. To go through this. This is, our worst nightmare. Also, we had contact with a lot of different women from different colleges giving us their experiences, even older women, asking us, you know, for information so that it didnt happen to them also. Jackie either of you feel free to answer. I am wondering what ubers reaction was when you reached out to them to partner with them in this way . So we made contact through uber dealing with legislation and they brought us to tracy and her team and, introduced us and we just started working from there. They knew that we wanted to make change. Were making change on the legislation and we wanted to make change in the habits and how, how the rides are, are taken and the technology and, that was, that was my mission. That is what i said in south carolina. That is what i said as an individual, that we wanted to make change. That is the purpose of the foundation was to make change. Jackie i will send it over to tracy, because im wondering how soon it was after samanthas death or other incidents occurred similar to this one uber realized it was time to take action . Well, first and foremost i want to say it is an honor and privilege to be on here with marcy and seymour and what the foundation is doing is wonderful work to raise awareness about rideshare safety but, you know, uber has been, actually sending messaging and doing awareness around this for some time, before the tragedy but i think what happened when the tragedy happened, it was horrific, for all of us. You know, we as personally how it impacted me as well as people i worked with. We knew that we needed to raise the bar. You know, we knew, hey, what more can we do in this space to help raise awareness around these fake rideshare drivers and what could we do . So we, after the tragedy we kicked off a Campus Safety initiative, partnering with the National Crime Prevention Commission as well as iclea. International association of college Law Enforcement to get that message across to college age students. Honestly its a message for everyone. Then we really worked to develop technology in this space too. We launched verify your ride this last year where it provide as four digit code that a rider can provide to a driver to make sure theyre getting in the right vehicle. So i think for us, what more can we do to partner with our community, to partner with folks like marcy and seymour, to raise awareness around rideshare safety.
