 Here is all the proof you need as the president's in Huntington, West Virginia that trade will dominate where the markets go. As soon as we got word, I think about 2.30 p.m. Eastern time, almost two hours ago, that the president was optimistic that a deal could be struck with China or that he was more positive than certainly some of his economic advisors were on the matter. The Dow kind of reversed what had been about a 250-point hit and halved it and then some by day's end. So obviously that's proof that the trade is something that the markets follow very closely. Melissa Armo is with us. We've got Gary B. Smith and Charlie Gasparino. Melissa, that's a reminder, I guess, is if we needed it that resolving this trade thing is going to be a very, very big thing for Wall Street, isn't it? It's going to be huge. In fact, I think the market is built in possibly that this could carry into 2019. So let's say, for example, that it works out in November and a deal is reached. I think the market's really going to like that. I think the market's expecting it's not going to be resolved this year. And if it is, I think the market's going to have a big rally, like it called a Christmas rally, into the close of 2018, which the market needs. We've sidelined most of the year. We've held the uptrend. We've had a lot of volatility, though. In October wasn't a good month for the market. Today, we tried to hold the gains, and we couldn't do it because Apple bombed on earnings last night. Yeah, you know, I guess bomb was in the eye of the holder, but it wasn't what they thought it would be. But having said that, Gary Smith, is it your view now that technically the market is over the worst after it was an awful month of October, a rebound this week, but very tenuous? What do you make of it? Yeah, I would agree with the word tenuous. It looks to me like it's put in a bottom. A lot of people think, oh, well, you know, this this bounce that we had is more of the, quote unquote, dead cat variety. And we'll just sink down. It feels like the market's trying to find a bottom, though. And the more these good earnings came out, you know, and despite Apple dropping on the news, the earnings were pretty darn spectacular. So I think if Trump, and I think he's playing the right cards, I would not be surprised to see more, hey, I think we got something with China going right into next week, you know, maybe right before the election. That could really boost the market. You're such a cynic. You're such a cynic. Charlie, help me with this in the relations that the president has with the Federal Reserve. Obviously, he thinks that their gung-ho to raise interest rates and risk jinxing a good economic recovery. It's almost a gimmie now that the Federal Reserve, given the strong employment news we had today, is going to do just that next month. And it's probably going to trigger another president's response. What do you think? I think he should keep his mouth shut. Among the dumber things that President Trump has done in the economy, he's done some smart things. I think some of the trade stuff is pretty, pretty horrible. But among the really bad things is publicly jaw-boning the Fed chief. He's almost guaranteed. The minute you do something like that, you almost guarantee that, you know, the Fed can't reverse track. And now they have complete cover, even though the economy could be slowing a little bit because that last GDP print was lower than the quarter before. There were some troubling signs in terms of business investment. But because he went after the guy publicly, Powell has to raise rates in December and that could be a problem. I will say this, the one problem that I have with the trade stuff is that, you know, Donald Trump has never really decoupled the bad part of China trade from the good part. The bad part is them stealing our intellectual property. The good part is that we have access to their mark, that we have access to a lot of people there which we sell stuff to. He's never really decoupled that. So I don't know how you can feel really confident about his trade policies now until he gets that kind of right. And, you know, he may never get it right, which means we're in a protracted thing with the Chinese, which, believe it or not, is not good for our businesses. Yeah, it drags on a while. Well, let me just ask you a hypothetical. I know that everyone, the consensus is Republicans hold on to the Senate, maybe pick up a couple of seats, but lose the House. What if that doesn't materialize? What if they hang on to the House and they hang on to the Senate? Then what? What do you think would happen with stuff? Oh, God. Well, here's my take on this. If we end up keeping the Republicans, if they keep the House and the Senate, then I think the market is going to have an extremely bullish next two years, 12 to 24 months, going into the next election cycle. If we do not, if the Democrats win the House, I don't think there's any way they'd win the Senate. But if the Democrats win the House, let me finish, then I think the market's still going to remain bullish, but you could have more volatility, these huge updates, huge down days, huge down days. But you're missing, there's a panoply of macroeconomic factors that will come in the next two years, even if the Republicans keep the House and the Senate, which I think will be a good short term for the markets. But I mean, do the deficits rise? Do we keep getting a great growth? I'm very bullish in the market. I can't say how you can be very much in the market. That's fine. I don't know how you could predict two years out, because if you can. Because I'm reading the price action. I'm reading the charts. Well, then you'd be richer than Warren Buffett if that was the case. Well, I asked her opinion. That's all it was, and she screwed it all for it. I'm just saying two years out. I mean, then we'll just calm down. I'm pretty good at what I do, though. All right, and then Charlie's just being rude. But no, I'm kidding. But Gary B., is it your sense, then, in an unlikely scenario like that? I mean, you could use, in the case we've had split government, it's been very good for the markets as well. So it's not a negative for the markets, is it? No, not at all. I think the market has kind of factored the news in, to be honest with you. I guess I could agree with Melissa. Any surprise is going to be to the upside with the Republicans keeping total control of Congress. I think they factored in now the market has that they're going to lose the house. And so be it. I'm with Melissa. I wouldn't say I'm extremely bullish, but I'm bullish because of all the earnings I see coming out and all the innovation. So you strongly dislike Gasprino, is what you're saying? Well, I wouldn't say strongly, but I would go with dislike, yes. By the way, I'd be careful about the next two years. Just saying. Listen, I said the dam is going to go to $27,000 and it almost stopped there. It's going to get there. Guys, thank you all very, very much. Can you imagine if Abraham Lincoln had to worry about a stock market, Doris Kearns Goodwin on that and so much more at play going into this crucial weekend after this?
