That a good or bad idea . Voices on both sides of that issue. We have the latest and you get to chime in on whos right in that battle, as well. You can see on an otherwise up day, all the table stocks are lower. The president in china at a quick summit announcing a visa program thats expanded and on the same day china is the top suspect in a massive hacking attack on the u. S. Postal service affecting more than 800,000 postal workers. Can we have truly normal economic relations with china while they continue to hack america at will, seemingly . Looking for one Great Holiday deal this year, dont look for it on black friday. Thats right. Turns out the best deals come on a different day. Which one . Which one . Well tell you later. Not one i thought if thats an indication. I thought it was all right, all right. Not the one you thought. An hour to go here into the close and talking about alltime highs on the indexes. The dow up. S p adding and the nasdaq with a gain to 4648. We have kim fo
Have been lost as a result of all of that. The biggest blizzard though turned out to be inside the New York Stock Exchange today. Well put. Take a look at whats happening in the market. We are geared up for a negative start then got a flurry of earnings. Caterpillar disappointing. Microsoft didnt help thing. Both stocks getting hit hard. Whats interesting, thats contributing to the dow being a weaker performer than the s p today. Its off 231 points. The s p mean while down less than 1 . So you could argue perhaps its an oversized reaction to a couple big companies, but by the way, theyre important companies, and by the way, the nasdaq also off 1. 3 . If we get a moment could we see crude oil settled higher. We did see a comeback in that sector and energy was one of the leaders to the upside in an otherwise down day. Crude oil was up 2 . It was up 3 in the settlement. Were in the electronic trading right now. In fact, i will just point out, the aaa Daily National average gasoline gauge
Bill theres plenty of attention on what a poorer start this trading year is off to and not just any day or two days to see this kind of pressure but the two days to kick off the year traditionally not a great sign. Two other markets very quickly. Oil, yes, we continued lower again. Big time. Down another almost 4 on wti. We are now at 48. It did touch the 47 range and brent is threatening to go below 50 at this point. Lets show you if we can the 10year yield. It touched 1. 88. At its lowest point today taking us back the lows of last october. Yes. On your screen there, you are seeing the 10year u. S. Treasury note below 2 . The 30year well below 2. 5 .

Markets see the dow off 92. Nasdaq off 39 and s p off 11. Joining us in that said exchange today, margie patel, david kudlow jeff reeves Samuel Stovall and Ri
Center in 2001. This Brooklyn Historical Society Program is about an hour. Welcome, everybody. It is so great to see the room full like this. Im marcia eli, Vice President of programs at the Brooklyn Historical society. And we are really, really excited about tonights program. I just wanted to say very quickly that if you are not familiar with Brooklyn Historical society, it was founded, we were founded 151 years ago. And it was the middle of the civil war.

And this building actually was built as the Historical Society and opened in 1881. When it opened, like we have here tonight, it was a place of civic dialogue. In fact, back then this very room had an auditorium and thought leaders came here and spoke. Right here where we were standing, president Woodrow Wilson spoke. Dr. Arthur conan doyle spoke.
