Sweaters, and some scary moments occasional for investors. After all, october has brought frightful events, like the 1929 stock ma crash, black monday in 1987, and a 500point drop on the dow, thanks to the socalled asian contagion in 1997. Today brought none of those but the month did start out on a down note as investors digest economic in news showing spending fell for a second straight month. Tepid manufacturing numbers and Oil Prices Hit a threemonth high on renewed optimism opec may reach a deal to cut production a in, the dow jones industri average fell 54 points to 18,253. Nasdaq was off a modest 11, and the s p 500 off 7. David kelley joins us now to talk more about the markets in october and whether ot the upcoming president ial election wi have any meaningful impact on trading this month. He is the chief global strategist at jpmorgan funds. David, always great to see you. So how be the election . Do you think that it has the potentia to it unsettle the markets . Well, it could. I mean, weve looked at the data going back to 1990, and october is on average more volatile. That really has a lot to do with october of 2008, really extraord month. Other than that, actually electi year october is dont tend to be that volatile, relative to, you know, the rest of the year. Because usually, you know, people want to keep their pattern dry. Also were dealing with two relative conventional candidates i th this time around, its a little bit different, because if the secretary clint wins, it will seem much more like a continua of th status quo. I dont th you get much volatili out of that. If donald trump wins, though, th be a lot of uncertaint about exactly what this all means. And, of course, markets hate uncertaint well have to watch these poll numbers. If the race tightens up, i think you could see more volatility, just because of that increase in you point out in your note today that you really cant get prosperous by saving any more. Thats a losers game. So youve got to put a stake in the ground and do something. Wh are the somethings i ought to be consideri now with my portfolio . Well, i think the first point is really important. That traditionally, you made about 2 over the rate of inflation, jus by keeping money in a savings account, or in a cd. Now 2 bow low that. Youre losg money every day you wait to decide. We think the u. S. Stocks have some potential to run. We like those, particularly as some of the economic numbers overall are actually getting better. An earnings ar doing better. So i think that looks good. But also, longterm, we really Like International stocks and emerging markets. They have been held back. But if you look at the global pmi data that came out today, we have numbers from a lot of different countr overall, the Global Economy does seem to be waking up. So a lot of International Stocks that have lagged behind. Where internationally between developed mar and emerging markets, which would you tilt toward . I think in the long run, probably a little bit towards emerging markets. Frankly, they e cheaper and more beaten down. And within developed markets, we really like the european story still, despite the problems of the banking sector. Eventually European Central bank is going to have to help the european Banking System back to health. And when it gets back to health, that will help the european markets a lot. Im not quite so positive about japan. Theye longterm, very significant structural problems. Give me 30 seconds on where fixed income sits. I think you have to have fixed income because something could go wrong. You have to be pretty pragmatic now. Things calm down and the stock ma starts moving up, we could have inflation. Things like emerging market bonds, highyield bonds, within the fixed income, what i think is an improving Global Economy. Great advice. Thanks very much.

Reporte Deutsche Bank stocks under pressure once again in the u. S. Trading session today. After markets which were shot today from a holiday in germany. I think this is optimism leaking away after the rally we saw on friday amid reports we could see some kind of quick settlemen Deutsche Bank and departmejustice. Its going to take a bit more time. There is a silver lining, though. I think that is that after all the rumors swirling, the bar now for investors to be satisfied with a number here is higher. Even if it wipes out more than 6 billion worth of cash reserves that Deutsche Bank has set aside. Deutsche bank execs have traveled to washi this week, which is also important, even the geography could play a part in facilitating tas tw the two sides.

For nightly busine i Hampton Pearson at the coming up, Hillary Clinton takes on big corporate names, behaving badly, she say new yorks attorney general s ordered the Trump Charitable Foundation to stop fund raising in the state immediately. The ags office says the foundati is not properly register to do so and has 15 days to supply the delinquent paperwork. The Trump Campaign says it is concerned about the political motivation behind the investigat but the foundation will fully coo well, over the weekend, a new york report said republic president ial nominee, donald trump, claimed a tax loss of nearly 1 billion back in 1995. The times said that loss could mean he paid zero federal income tax for nearly two decades. The move is legal, and eyeopenin frank explains how the tax code can turn losses into when most taxpayers lose money or income, they never get it back. But Donald Trumps latest tax controvers sho that for certain wealthy taxpayers, a loss can actually be a gain. The new york reporting over the weekend that trump reported a net operating loss of 916 million in 1995, which he could then use to erase income tas on up to 916 million in earnings over 18 years. And its all perfec and thanks to a littleknown but very lucrative part of the tax code, called the net operating loss, or nol. Nol is was first enacted in 1918 and only applied to two years of income at that time. The idea was to allow businesses to it report a loss in one part of the calendar year they could then make up in the next part of the ca year. So nols allowed them to smooth over their tax payments. But over the years, its expanded and exploded in size. In 1995, taxpayers could deduct losses for 18 years. Now its more than 20 years. Taxpayers claimed about 50 billion in nols in 1996. In 2014, that number had ballooned to nearly 200 billion. The losses are helpful to the wealthy and wealthy Business Owners like trump whose company and income taxes flow through their personal income tax returns. Taxpayers can only apply these losses to companies they n or control like llcs, scorps and ccorps, not could be confused with investmen losses, which can only be used to offset capital gains, but only reduce your personal income tax by a maximum of 3, real estat Developers Like trump found ways to turbo charge the nol provision. Designated real estate professi like trump can deduct multimillion dollar intere payments on their building loans and depreciation of their real estate so they can report large paper losses while making huge incomes. While use of nols is not uncommon among the wealthy, the magnitude of trumps losses are almost unheard. Accountant have said its well over 100 million. The Trump Campaign saying, quote, mr. Trump is a highly skilled businessman who has a fiduciar area responsibility to his business, his family and his employees to pay no more tax than legally we still dont know exactly how trump generated the loss, and given that he has refused to release his returns, we may never have an answer to for nightly busine Hillary Clinton took on what the Campaign Calls bad actors, Companies Like mylan with its epipen price increases and, of course look at well really shocking, isnt it . One of the nations biggest banks bullying thousands of employees into committing fraud against unsuspe it is outrageous that eight years after a cowboy culture on wall str wreck our economy, we are still seeing powerful bankers playing fast and loose with eamon javers joins us now from washington. Eamon, what specifically did ms. Clinton propose today . Well, she did a couple of things, tyler. One is by bringing up wells fargo, which is a scandal thats been in the news recently, but that a lot of americans wont have heard of, she was able to e that back to 2008, which is a scandal that a lot of americans will definitely have heard of and are still feeling some pain from. And really hammer home that point politically. But in terms of the specifics, she raised a number of the specific ideas that she would like to see, including getting companies to do more Profit Sharing with the employees, and also taking on this idea that companies are able to force employees and customers into arbitratn instead of into the courts. Thats somethi she would like to change. We have a sound bite of what she said on that point, and here it is. We are not going to let corporat like wells fargo use these fineprint gotchas to escape a and, in fact this is now common practice across a lot of industries. She also said she would like an exit tax for companies that leave the country, and she would like to do something about companies offshoring jobs, as well, tyler. Did she pick up on the tax business involving mr. Trump at all in her speech . She sure did. She said this is donald trump to a t. She said this is a huge boon for the campaign. Thats exactly what she did on the campaign tra today. Mr. Trump firing back in his way, saying he has no obligation to pay more than the tax laws insist he do. Yeah. Trump today said something interest on this point. He said, yes, the tax code is unfair, and i know, because im a beneficiary of that unfair tax code. And thats why im the guy to fix it. Contrasting him with Hillary Clinton, who he says has worked in government her whole life, and has nev created a job in the public in the private sector. Eamon javers, thanks very much. We appree it. You bet. Bass pro shops hooks rivalca bellas, where we begin tonights market focus.

For bankruptcy several years ago, the city of detroit is now under going a massive reinvite thanks and as Brian Sullivan tells us, with the help of the citys public and pr detroit filed for bankruptcy three years ago. But given all the growth, it feels a lot longer ago than that. Comp and their workers are once aga movin downtown, and restaura and retailer popping up everywhere. Quicken loans founder, dan gilbert, is the man behind much of the rebirth. He had been buying and rebuildi square feet downtown and his greek town casino and Hotel Complex has become the centerpiece of the action. We asked gilbert how much more still needs we always try and prove, no matter who you are, new york city, always trying to prove things and get things better. Of here, certainly downtown, we have made substantial progress downtown, midtown. But the neighborhoods are just a huge part, if not the majority part of detroit. And so, you know, you have to have jobs in the central core, because wheth you live here or live in the neighborhoods, these are where the jobs are. Even jobs in those neighborhoods are great, but we have blight coming down in the neighborhoods and we have new residential neighbors actually going up for the first time in decades here. For the first time in 60 years, detroit may have stopped shrinking. Population is holding steady. And local College Graduates are sticking around, instead of leaving the state to find opportuns elsewhere. This family is another reason why. They founded Little Caesars pizza and founded the red wings hockey team. Their district Detroit Program has committed more than 1 billion to build apartments, office space, retail and a new hockey arena. And says the chance the Detroit Pistons basketb team could also be movi i hope it happens. And hope to, you know i hope hes got something to announce before long. But all this development hasnt come without criticism. While downtow takes off, some complain that the poorer areas are, again, being forgotten. Gilbert says that criticism is unfounded. Its all connected. I mean, the only difference between the neighborhoods and downtown is, you know, peoples when you look at a map and say heres the neighbor thats heres downtown. Basically, one city. The mayor has done a great job of getting that blight down. To me, that was the numberone thing that had to happen. Almost 11,000 homes taken down the last few years, two or three years. That needed to come down. There is a more to go. Its obvious there is still work to be done. Nobody is saying detroits comeback is complete. Far from i r the first tim in a long time, its beginning to feel like detroits economic engine is once again firing on all cylinders. For night in detroit, michigan, im brian su. And up next, well show you how one startup is trying to make it easier for employees and employers to navigate company. Finally tonight, it is open enrollme time for many companies, so what would you if your company said it was droppin one of the big firms to go with an insurance tech startup . As Bertha Coombs tells us, one video gamemaker did just that and loved it. Only thing i would change there, actually repor gina hope loves her job, marketing games, like call of duty. Her Health Insurance was another thing. He childs provider was out of network. I have a son with special needs. Its a learnin process every time som the picture. Reporte whe they switched to a new insurer, she mentioned to hr that once again the provider was not covered. Next thing i know, i get an email back that they had signed up my sons provider and brought them in network for me, without me even asking, without me making a phone call. And this year it saved us 17,000. Reporter that kind of service is why active visions hr chief took a chance on collec health. We dont have all of the muscle power like a microsoft would have to push a carrier around to push them to do mak sense to us. But i have the mentality that we deserve that kind of treatment. Reporte launched in 2015, the san franciscobased benefs manager uses a datadriven platform to make managing Health Benefits easier for both employees and hr departments. We have the luxury of starting from scratch, and we can create a system thats built on modern software that allows us to create that member experien that feels like the best of Consumer Tech products. Reporter they also have the luxury of just focusing on benefits. Because they pay larger insurers, like blue cross, to use their medical networks. That allows collective health to focus on using its data to help its clients better understand whats happening with their health and wellness benefits. Like a lot of selfinsured companies, activician blizzard offers its employees dozens of wellness programs. Collecti health helps them weave them all together in order to make them more effective. Get somebody wh we recognize fro our claims data, looks like theyre going to have a major surgery coming up, we can direct them to get a second opinion. R their old insurer was not as proacti. Our healthy pregnancy utilizatio is triple what it was under our conventional carriers watch. I know the cost of members that are continuously engaged is actuallyr by about 800 per member thats continuo enrolled in our Healthy Incentive program. But maybe the biggest payoff . Ive never raved about my insurance previously. But just that they treated me like a person, and that my situation was unique and special repor for nightly report, im bertha and that is nightly for tonight. Thanks for bei with us.
