Nasdaq added 34, a new high and s p 500 rose nearly you factor in dividends in this ur news nor investors. The s p is at a new high, but it has been there really all year if you include dividend gains of roughly 2. 2 . The s p 500 has hit record highs ten times once you factor in those dividends. How important is this whole gain . They count for half of the s ps total returns over long periods of time, so since 1988, the s p 500 is up about 720 .

Im bob pisani at the new york wall street, our guest tonight isnt quite convinced that this isnt anything more than just a bounce back rally. Shes president and urban wealth management. S a relief rally, but you dont thin last. I really dont think so. In fact, i call it a silly putty rally. This has been a bounceback with all of tn we had oaf the past few weeks. And im very, very cautious, very concerned this rally is just not going to last and its going to run out of steam. I believe thats what you here . My Major Concerns are this. Weve had six consecutive quarters of declining ea earnings are concerned. In addition to that, five quarters of sales declin nr one weve got enough push here in the market to continue to maintain those high valuations. Right now, forward earnings per share for the s p 500 is at 24. And its very, very, excuse me, not forward, but forward is 18, but back looking back is 24. But theres very, very high price earnings valuations that i just dont think are going to be sustain bable. One of the things you believe well see a pullback on 8 by october. Youre not alone there thinking were going to see a pullback. Goldman sachs saying a 5 to 10 pullback from recent highs. One of the things they mention is deaccelerating buyback. Is that a concern of yours . Exactly. In those instances where we have se earnings per share punch up, its been because of the earnings where the share buyback. I t were going to have a def that will take place in the earnings balloon. So, l go wrong with your forecast here. If earnings start to pick up and a lot of people think that maybe the trough has been hit. Might that not support these higher prices in i agree with you. They look a Little Pricey to me. Well, you know, ive thought about that. And actually, since the beginning of t year, taken a very cautious stance and started raising cash. We had dividend paying issues, so if im wrong, im on the side of still participate ng the market with more divid paying issues you just pointed out swrus prior to this segment. So, were still in the market, but i still want to have some money availabl take advantage of some growthier names. This has been a value oriented market really for the past year. Weve no hit new highs expkt here in the past few days, so once the air comes out ball ill be at the ready to buy names. Good to hear against the grain perspective. We appreciate your time. Renee norris with urban wealth management. Thank you. On the other side f the globe, an International Tribunal dispute. Ague has ruled against it concludes china has no legal t to a major part of the south china sea, which sees 5 trillion worth of trade every year. Chinas president rejected the decision, something we reported wusz likely to happen. The issue is an important one to the u. S. Since the u. S. Has repeatedly challenged chinas rights to the sea and has increasd patrols. In the u. S. , job openings fell to their lowest level of the year in may. The 5. Million openings down fr record high. The declip corresponds with the weak employment re but experts say they do not think this is evidence of a sharp deterioration. Meanwhile, the head of the nations largest bank is raising the companys minimum pay for thousands of low paid pays. Jpmorgan chase ceo says its important to a growing concerns surrounding income inequality. He wrote quote, a pay increase have rig gone nowhere for too long. The base pay for 18,000 employees, tellers and Customer Service workers, will rise to as much as 16. 50 an hour over the next three years. Their pay currently stands at 10. 15 ab hour. Is this the right move and e m pay for their low wage employees . Joining us to discuss is har hoelzer, georgetown university. Good to see you. Weve seen starbucks. Jpmorgan chase. Walmart also making raises. Is it your view that it is better pol these decisions on their own or to have government step in and try and boost wages for low paid p minimum wage . Well, its definitely good when com because theyre doing it in their own interest. Right now, whether its starbucks or Jpmorgan Chase or walmart, theres a few Different Reasons why ththis. Number one, as the labor market is gradually tightening, they feel som pressure to do this so they can hire and retain good workers. Secondly, Companies Often see it in their interest to do that because it might raise the productivity of worker, raise their ability to hire productive workers. Its a good thing when Companies Make this choice. Now, of course, a smaller number of companies do this. So if you want the wage increase to occur for a much larger number of people at the bo s many more workers benefit, the only downside is that some Companies Might cut back on hiring because it becomes more expensive for them to do so. That seems to be a major concern among those that say if it is raise bid too much, that e of companies are doing this also because they either have state mandates or they see that coming down the road even ahead of a federal minimum wage hike. That might bef these compani doing that right now. As i said, abs of the higher state minimum, the Companies Might do so any way because the labor market is is tightening. And the likelihood of these extra laws might be just one more reason pushing them in that drek. Two quei apologize in advanc assuming my cynical hat. Mr. Dimon is a progressive and thoughtful ceo, with a small p, not in the political sense, but in l o the fact so many people in both Political Parties have whacked on the banks, hes trying to get out ahead of a political issue by offering low wage employees a raise. Thats n one and number two is, the other cynic in me says teller but ill bet you five years doyne the road, theyre going to be fewer bank tellers. Well, you maybe right on one or both of those points. Im sure whatever the reason is, mr. Dimon is doing this because he believes its in the interest of his company to do that. Now, maybe its just for good press. Although i think theres probably good economic reasons to do that on top of the good press. Now, the second issue that you raised, hell have fewer tellers. Thats possible. But. Because hes choosing to do it. And i dont think he would choose to do something that would cause him to cut back on employment few years down the road, so its less sort of that. If the government, t you know, with the government mandates a hire wage when its not chosen by the company, the risk is greater. But really, the amount of risk depends on how high the governments pushing. I dont worry a lot about the minimum wage going up into the million an hour range. My heart agrees with you that hes doing this because he thinks its the right or jp chase. Harry hoelzer with georgetown university. K soon. Again. Thank you.

Mean is hoping to turn flash sale buyers into loyal customers by discounting her items by more than 20 . I know how i shop on amazon and if i would think to buy a handmade item. Seeing theres a 20 off discount i think might give people an incentive to try it where as other woouz, they might not and it will give them an opportunity to find out more exposure doesnt come cheap. Retailers had to discount their products by at least 20 and amazon takes an average of 15 on each makes, whic be pricey, of course, for small retailers.
