The unfunny weekend racial joke is still on page one. She visits al sharp top today and an anniversary video is mysteriously dropped. Then theres this, politics british style, this is the one thing i miss. I didnt receive a proper answer then. Maybe dodgy dave will answer it n now. Order, order order, order [laughter] order . Ashley called the Prime Minister dodgy . You can. And theres much more to come. Varney company is about to week earned, got that. And the markets are rallying. The dow is up about 80 points. Check the price of oil. Lets start there. It hit its high for the year yesterday, and 42 a barrel. Were going to find out how much oil weve got in storage in the next hour and this morning, there is confusion over that weekend meeting of oil producers. The saudies say they will not even talk about production cuts, the price of oil is down 40 cents this morning. How about gasoline, look at, oh, i read this and i wince, jumping more than 2 cents overnight, the National Average is 2. 08 a gallon. Ashley webster is here and so, too, is liz peak, and youre fiscal times, and what is fueling the rise in the stock market yesterday and today . Its a great combination, we have a dovish fed, janet yellen clearly feels embarrassed having hiked rates so everything were hearing from the fed is sort of calm down, nothing is going to happen very soon and oil markets are recovering. They may not go directly back to 100 a barrel, that would be pretty shocking, but i think theres a sense that weve hit the lows, its not going to whenever theres a trend on wall street, everyone extrap lates a trend so when it goes for 130, then it goes to 10. It hasnt gone to 10 and now its an equilibrium shortterm price and the upcoming meeting, theyre not going to cut prices so i dont think its a surprise the saudies said they wouldnt. Excuse me, production. But they may stabilize at least some of the big producers and Domestic Production is falling. Stuart i go away for a couple of days and still janet yellen and still the you could be away longer. Ashley the same old story. Exactly. Stuart well, im back. How about peabodies coal produc producer bankrupt. Weve seen it happen. Is this a case that the obama team beating up on it. Ashley said it was going to happen, and look at that. Stuart we dont show charts. Ashley a straight down ski slope. Chapter 11 a trying to organize, in this industry, good luck. Theyre not alone Many Companies in the industry have gone bankrupt. Stuart the coal industry. An Energy Company you can call it that. No impact on the market at all. Let me show you live pictures of the verizon workers who are on strike. The land line and cable this is philadelphia. Land line and cable workers walked off the job at 6 00 a. M. Eastern time. Here is my question, if im a customer can i still watch tv and still get my cable repaired . The ser rvice is there, if yu have a problem, it might be slow. Verizon has hired workers, nonunion, upset the strikers, to fill in. 40,000 people in massachusetts to virginia, theyve been without a contract and they say verizon a making massive profits and cutting, blah, blah, blah, im sure there will be some disruption to service, but as happens frequently, pension benefits are an issue. The they say the company is trying to cut or reduce their pension benefits and the verizon workers say weve got to keep them no matter how generous they are. Ashley exactly. Stuart bottom line there. Were looking at a gain of 90 points for the dow industrials 20 minutes from now. I want to get to the election, six days until the new york primary, were joined by the honorary cochair for the Trump Campaign in new york, that would be carl palladino. All right, carl, here is the rub on donald trump, your guy, if he is the republican nominee, he cannot beat Hillary Clinton. Thats the rub on trump. And you say what . I think the press should get over it. I think that donald is going to wipe the floor with Hillary Clinton. Theres no doubt about it in my mind. Stuart there isnt a single poll that says that and ive not met anybody who says that trump runs away with the election if its against hillary, nobody is saying that, carl. I know donald well and i know when he gets out there on the trail and starts illustrating his platform over hillarys that were going to win over the woshgrking in the Democratic Party and win over the trades people and the cwa, the auto workers and teamsters, theyre going to come to donald trump, he speaks truth and they know that hes created jobs in the past and he is going to create jobs in the future. Stuart hold on a second, carl. Ive got a couple of clips to play for you. The first is donald trump where hes suggesting that the system within the Republican Party is rigged. Now, this comes after he lost all the delegates in colorado. Roll that tape. A republican system is absolutely rigged. Its a phony deal. This was a dirty trick. These are dirty tricksters, this is a dirty trick and ill tell you why, the rnc, the Republican National committee, they should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this kind of crap to happen. I can tell you that. They should be ashamed of themselves. Okay, now, that did not go unanswered. Rncs response, the rules why set last year, nothing mysterious, nothing new. The rules have not changed. The rules are the same. Nothing different. All right, carl, come back in again. Donald trump does not have much of an organization and hes complaining about it. He didnt even show up in colorado. Whats with that . In colorado, the games that were played were respond the Trump Campaigns ability to deal with it. It was wrong, the way they went about it. They should have given people a better opportunity to vote. Stuart those are the rules. Trump was popular in as Reese Priebus said, those rules have been in place for a long time. He knew the rules. Of course. And thats why he entered the race and proceed down the road and follow the rules, ethically and morally. I was with him before the speech when he talked about the rigging, he sincerely feels there will be a attempt at cleveland to broker out a convention and denight the people, okay, the people of the Republican Party and deny them their voice on who their leader is to be and thats the game thats played. The republicans over the years have skewered their rules to allow such a thing. We fully expect that that rules committee is going to change those rules before the convention. Stuart okay. And were dealing with that right now. Stuart youve got to deal with it. Carl, appreciate you being with us, thank you very much indeed. Thanks, stuart. Stuart i want to move on to Hillary Clinton, her campaign created a video to celebrate the one Year Anniversary of her president ial bid. They didnt want you to see it, they dropped the whole video, but weve got it and y going to see it now. One, hey, today is the one Year Anniversary of our campaign. I am so excited with everything weve done this year and i am greatful for your help in every single way. Today, april 12th, is also equal pay day so weve got a lot of work to do there and i am so optimistic and confident were going to get this and so much else done together e as we said, they dropped that video. Liz peek, why did they drop that video . Theres some view that this head bobbing thing is something that didnt work for hillary and tried to get her to stop doing it. But its looking backward over the past year, so much of Hillary Clintons campaign is focused backward. Lets talk about bill clinton in the 1990s, hillary being a senator in new york. The truth is Bernie Sanders look forward and thats why theyre excited about that. And i think they were right to drop it. Ashley thats not very good. Stuart this is television. Ashley she looks maniacally widee wideeyeed. Stuart careful. Ashley if anybody did that id say whats that . Head bobbing, eyes wide open. And she was supposed to waltz through this campaign about 100 billion or whatever, 100 million in the super pac like jeb bush, it didnt happen the way it was supposed to. Stuart just you wait until we get to Britains Parliamentary questions. A lot to come. I cant way. Stuart and more on this one, look at this, youre looking at, youre about to see, a giant sinkhole in the middle of the road near fresno, california. Its sinking as you watch the video, the hole gets bigger and bigger. Were used to sink holes in florida, this one is in california. That hole about 20 feet deep, 15 feet wide and they caught it happening on camera. We thought we would show you. Meanwhile, bono, rock star, setting getting very political. He says policy is to blame for isis. How about that . And china, going back on its promise to president obama. They said they would not militarize the South China Sea. Now fighter jets parked on the islands that they made in the South China Sea. More varney in a moment. Ai aid can no longer be seen as charity. One thing id like you to take away from this testimony. Aid in 2016 is not charity, its National Security and when its structured properly with a hard focus on fighting corruption and improving governance to qualify for that aid, it could be the best work we have against violent extremism thats gaining traction. Stuart aid, give them a job, thats how you fight isis. That was, of course, bono on capitol hill talking about isis and the migrant crisis. As i said, he suggests that poverty is the cause for the rise of isis. Lets see what kt mcfar land thinks about that. Shes going to smile this mork. What do you think of that. I think musicians should not be giving National Security advice, they should stick to singing. Look. Stuart we agree on that one. The president of iraq, he told me that isis was born in the prisons of baghdad when it was a the religious fanatics in jail, coupled with and hooked up with the general of iraq, saddams iraqi army. They had the military where withdrawal and organizational ability and thats isis. Stuart would it know the also be true to say that many of the terrorists weve seen in europe and the 9 11 hijackers, they came from wealthy families, did they not, theyve got money. You know, thats a key point that most people overlook, they think its poor people, strap on the suicide vests. Its the wealthy islamic extremists who get the guys to strap on the suicide vests. They are the ring leaders, and many members are upper class backgrounds. Stuart i didnt get what he was saying about the migrant crisis, he says it threatens the existence of europe. I agree, thats absolutely right. Stuart and he says weve got to open up here and let them come here, that i dont get. Really, again, im not going to say taking National Security advice from rock stars and not going to get my music from politicians e well said. Why is it essentially that we have a musician, a singer, a talented guy. Whats he doing passing judgment on our aid policy to the middle east . Hes been very involved in the aid policies himself. He made one point i thought was actually worth thinking about. He said lets send comics to isis, amy schumer and funny people to isis and that may sound crazy, but i think it gets to a bigger point which is information work here. We tried to deal with radical islam militarily for too long. I think we need a different policy that includes military policy and Information Warfare and ideological warfare, the same we defeated the communists in the cold war. They dont react well to cartoons . No, but theres an also a poll that came out this week, of young muslims, mostly in the sunni world, young muslims, particularly men, and theyre waning on their enthusiasm for the islamic state. Thats an opportunity for us to reach that group and use propaganda and talk to them how bad that, you know, isis is and how there is another way. Stuart propaganda. I like propaganda, good at it and get back in that business. Stuart kt, youll be back later in the show. Thank you. Stuart thank you. How about this one, Mark Zuckerberg talks politics and takes some not so veiled jabs at donald trump and free speech. Hes put himself right in the middle of the election and well deal with that next.

And then there is Mark Zuckerberg, facebook chief. Hes getting right into politics, injecting himself into the election. And listen to him take a jab at donald trump. I hear fearful voices calling for building walls and distancing people they label as others. For blocking free expression, for slowing immigration, reducing trade. Stuart well, he also talked about what hes going to do with facebook as a technology company, but he did include that large section on politics. Why do you think hes doing that, liz . Well, first of all, i think hes actually put his money where his mouth is. Hes actually started a super pac thats in favor of immigration reform. Hes not a hard leftist or anything of that sort. He actually has given more money to republican politicians than democrats, but i think he feels the need, as so many people do right now, to speak out against kind of longterm sentiments and policies that he thinks are injurious to the United States. Stuart antitrump theres a history between them because trump has spoken out and taken shots and hiring more people from overseas. Theres always that side of it. Stuart so we pick up on the politics into the election and ignoring what hes doing with facebook and thats important and Facebook Stock will probably go up this morning because of what he said about facebook yesterday. Ashley probably. Stuart the markets going to ignore his politics and focus, as they should, we found is interesting. But i think these Tech Companies are in a weird place because they definitely are wanting more visas and the antiimmigration thing here is hurting them right now. Stuart a tricky position if youre a truly Global Technology company. Ashley globally connected business. Stuart certainly it. And moving along looking at the markets, youre going to see green arrows today. Youre going to like this, were closing in and ive said this many times before, closing in on 18,000, but consider the back drop to this up market. Gas way up, weak earnings so far, and Major Coal Company goes bankrupt and harry dent, a guest on this show saying were in a devastating bubble. The market is apparently dealing with all of that and youll watch it live in a moment. This just got interesting. Why pause to take a pill . Or stop to find a bathroom .

Stuart weve got about a minute to go before we start trading session thats what the morning. We are likely to see the dow industrials go out. Is that right . Youre going to look at me go glassy eyed. Because here we are. Up 11. 5 in march. A global, maybe chinas economy is finally gaining some traction. The belief that the one nothing because of the new year holiday, business was up in february. This is a blip on the radar. Dont get carried away. Chinas economy is not taking up here and stuart not to mention the Dollar Strength helps china. Their stuff is cheaper here. The other day china has a 366 billion surplus with america . The bell is ringing. It is 9 30. The dow jones just over the business and we are up to the early going. They wi
