ashley: i'm ashley webster. cyber security summit. president obama meeting with ceos at the white house. our twitter question, do you trust the same people who brought you the obamacare website to tighten up cyber security? tweet us. your responses coming up. tracy: is a rhetorical question, right? ashley: may be. tracy: apology for the problems with the obamacare website. we're live on capitol hill as congress grills the head of the agency responsible for the site but is saying i'm sorry enough? ashley: consumers putting the brakes on car sales. that is taking down the whole retail sector. we'll have an analyst what it means for the all-important holiday shopping season ahead. tracy: in our tech minute, the suck mark zuckerberg files. we have files for every word that the every word that the facebook ceo has spoken. that is little maniacal, right? that is ahead on "markets now." ashley: zuckerberg rocking. tracy: nicole petallides on floor of the exchange. nicole you have breaking news on jpmorgan, don't you? >> right. as the market

ashley: oh. tracy: the government curse is curse for some but could it be a blessing for your portfolio. nicole petallides on the floor of nyse. charles payne,. liz: macdonald here in the studio -- liz macdonald. >> before we get on to the topic which is indeed and some merit to speak at this time. the dow jones industrials are holding the 15,000 line at a whopping 15,002. the loss is 70 points. we were down triple digits. the dow is down to one-month low. the vix, the fear index, is to the upside, a three-month high. everybody is in a wait-and-see mode on wall street. you don't see dramatic moves. don't see heavy volume. everybody is waiting for washington. back to you. ashley: indeed they are, nicole. stay with us as we bring in elizabeth mcdonald and charles payne. guys, can money be made on this shutdown? you can understand why the volume is low, a lot of uncertainty but i think the odds are damn good the market will come back because washington will get something done in the end. >> you see

ashley: yeah. that's a good.some what gets done, if anything? do we get a clean cr passed in the house, or is there something going to be attached to it, something the president and democrats said, forget it? >> eventually john boehner has got to capitulate. it is just a question of when and on what terms. harry reid is enjoying this. this is great. this is exactly what harry reid would like to see. he feels it helps the democrats in 2014. that is how people think in washington. but i think to get boehner to capitulate, two things have to happen. one, happened today. the white house scared the daylights out of the markets about how apocalyptic a debt ceiling crisis would be. the other shoe to drop is to scare grandma, to tell grandma she may not get her social security check if, if the debt ceiling isn't raised. that would put john boehner in a very difficult spot. ashley: it certainly would. he is already in a difficult spot within his own party. who is running this right now? is it ted cruz or jo

ashley: not bad. tracy: the ambassador of germany got a dressing down from germany's foreign minister. this follows charges that the nsa tapped angela merkel's cell phone. white house spokesman jay carney would not be pinned down on whether merkel's phone may have been monitored in the past. >> we are not going to comment publicly on ever specified alleged intelligence activity. as a matter of policy we made clear that the united states gathers foreign intelligence of the type gathered by all nations. as i mentioned yesterday the president spoke with chancellor merkel, reassured her the united states is not and will not monitor the chancellor's communications. tracy: hmmm. joining us former executive director of president reagan's foreign intelligence board, gary schmidt, now with the american enterprise institute. so is he basically admitting, yeah we tapped her phone? >> certainly seems that way. they were very careful not to talk about past practices. so the promises about what is going foreward an

ashley: i'm ashley webster. you heard about the budget deal but did you know washington slipped a healthy helping of pork into it as well? outrageous. we have team coverage ahead. tracy: our twitter question -- ashley: oink, oink. tracy: are you even more fed up with congress after learning that the spending bill is stuffed with, well, questionable stuff? tweet us at fox business. your responses are coming up. ashley: billionaire mark cuban calling the government a bully after being cleared of insider trading charges. judge andrew napolitano is here. you doesn't want to miss what he has to say about all of this. tracy: and look, this can not be a good idea. ahead in your tech minute, we'll tell you about a motorcycle helmet with a computer display projecting maps on the visor. come on, now. how about two hand on the wheel? let's focus. ashley: oh, my gosh, accident is written all over it. time for stocks. let's get down to nicole petallides on the floor of the new york stock exchange. as we do every 15 minutes,

ashley: welcome back to markets now. i'm ashley webster. tracy: i'm tracy byrnes. markets in middle, huh? solution to budget and debt mess in d.c. now seem farther and farther away. gop house members throwing a new plan in the ring and dems calling it, well, sabotage. investors don't know what to make of it all. the dow is down 56 points. ashley: neither can any of us. the best is congress kicks the can on the debt and deficit. is that good enough? tweet us and your answers are straight ahead. tracy: a big earnings miss at citi. but we have an analyst ahead to still likes the stock and we'll find out why. ashley: our newest feature, tech minute, why supermarket shelves may soon be watching you. tracy: a little freaky. depend where the camera is, what exactly are they watching? ashley: hopefully just, first stop of the hour, time for stocks. let's go to nicole petallides on the floor of the new york stock exchange. nicole. >> the people who taste the grapes will be in big trouble. take a look here. the dow jones industrials down 52 points right now. what is interest

ashley: i'm ashley webster. the obamacare website went down today after suffering yet another glitch this weekend. all of this days before the health and human services secretary kathleen sebelius is set to testify on capitol hill. coming up gerri willis will be weighing in and i think she will have a lot to say. we want to hear from you as well. our twitter question of the day, are the computer glitches just the tip of the iceberg for the obamacare website? tracy: this has been a disaster. talk about two for the price of one, well, sort of, not exactly, but this is the first quarter where apple will have sold two new iphones instead of one. with nine million new iphone 5ss and 5 ss and 5c, only sold not nearly as much we'll talk more about that. expectations are high for apple's earnings. we have a preview of that coming up. ashley: samsung hitting the hardwood. a new partnership with the nba has the south korean tech company sitting pretty courtside. details of the $100 million deal in our tech minute. that is

back to tracy and ashley. all the people were letting everyone know this is authorized flight over the skies of manhattan. tracy: i can only imagine. good stuff. arthel neville, thank you very much. i'll get to the babe. real cute. >>> 16 straight quarters of earnings wins for boeing, even with the disaster that is their plane problems. third quarter beat the street estimate. we have "morningstar" analyst who raised his fair value estimate $16. i have to tell you, it shocks me that even with all the problems this stock keeps going. everyone kind of brushes the, you know, the errors aside. why is that? >> so i think there's a lot to be said for boeing's operating profit, sort of focus that started after the delays in the 777, postlaunch in 2011 when they delivered to japan airlines and all nippon. i think they have had a real focus on just managing the business for profits and partnering for success is one of those sort of ideas. but literally i think the surprise this quarter was on the 787 margins and how the

ashley: i'm ashley webster. well the dow recovering with president obama set to meet with congressional leaders in just about an hour now on late word that washington may, we heard it before, may be close to a framework on at least a short-term solution to the debt crisis. tracy: that is our big twitter question of the day. can d.c. get its act together tweet us at fox business #mkn.k? ashley: joining us with their take, charles payne, greg valliere and fox business's david asman weighing in on what happens next. tracy: and in our newest feature, tech minute, why facebook's mark zuckerberg is buying up homes. ashley: because he can afford it. tracy: exactly. ashley: first, top of the hour, time for stocks now on this columbus day. let's get straight to nicole petallides down at nyse. nicole, stocks certainly reversing earlier 100 point loss on the sniff of a potential deal in washington. >> it is pretty unbelievable as the watch the market action pertaining to each headline. we started off with negative action.

"wall street journal" washington bureau chief, jerry seib in d.c. our very own gerri willis live on set. nicole, we'll start with you, markets are up, i don't know, at this point do they even care what is going on down there? >> i think they care a lot. we are digesting so much information in just a couple of days. of course we've seen the volatility index, the vix, moving left and rrght and up and down. it has been wild. tracy: right. >> today's move pulling back has been the biggest move in 2013. less fear in the market. we just got our news from the beige

ashley, you had a big discovery moment at disney dreamers, didn't you? >> yeah. i came into the academy focused on being a nurse and doing nurse practitioner but my dream in life is to become a photographer so through working with essence magazine and putting out the newsletter, i was able to do photography through that and make connections with disney and cnn and aol and national geographic and possible internship opportunities and just amazing connections. >> w. >> yeah. >> that's great. thomas, what was the best part for you? >> well, going into the disney dreamers academy, i did not know what field of engineering i wanted to go into but after going to the engineering deep dive, just seeing how much fun they had and building the rollercoaster, i realize that i want to become mechanical engineer. and just the entire experience. i want to take that back to my community so that we can grow as a community. >> right.

well let's talk about the ashley madison website more generally because it now boasts more than twenty million members across six continents are you surprised by how quickly it's grown and what factors are really contributing to its demand you think you know i was like they all the credit for our worldwide success but ultimately i think it says more about the human condition than about me as a business leader you know infidelity crosses both genders every socioeconomic group every ethnic group there's really nobody that's immune to fosli like i've affairs even in places where supported by law and even worse people still do it that much of a biological drive and so i think that's where the core we call ourselves a monogamous society that we really take a long look at it we can be much more of a non-monogamous society just saying that serves to the events and the law how would you describe the demographic of people who sign up for this male versus female single versus married you know the really interesting we know i'm in this for the business and i don't make any bones about that but we

i think ashley brings up a good point. when i was walking around the capitol, there's a real sense of nervousness of republicans. they're not sure how this is going to play out. they're hoping the president will shoulder some of the blame. but they're not sure that's going to happen. right now there's a lot of wariness about how to proceed. does boehner have the ability to get anything through his own conference. >> robert costa and ashley parker, thank you for your time. >>> coming up, how many times do you need to warn a child not to touch a hot stove before that child learns the hard way? tonight john boehner is finally allowing tea party republicans to touch the hot stove, which in this case is a shut down. >>> and president obama said he would not allow them to use the shut down as political leverage and he was not bluffing. >> we are not going to mess around with obamacare, no matter what they do. they've got to get a life. >>> you know, kid, the kitchen ain't a playground. there's a lot of things that can burn you.

ashley, when you went to college, you thought, okay. i'm going to work hard, get a degree, get out, get a nice yob. support what's happened instead? >> unfortunately, it's just been a struggle. and i think that i'm not unique in that regard. that all of the kids that i went to school with and friends from other colleges are experiencing the same thing. they don't have work in their field. they are taking whatever they can get. we're really competing with kids who've just had college -- or just g.e.d.s and high school diplomas for really low paying jobs. >> you said in the facebook post that obama care had raped your future. what do you mean by that? >> basically, i actually was given a hard time for my use of the word. i mean it in a simple definition as far as to plunder or to steal. i feel like our future has been stolen in that we don't have a choice in this. they're saying you have to buy this whether you want it or not. and whether you can afford it or not. i'm someone who's always worked hard. and i'm being told, you have to get o

"new york times" political reporter ashley parker. i want to start with you, you broke the news of plan d a few hours ago. that was the conference committee plan which seems to be getting the hand from harry reid. is there a plan e at this point for house republicans? >> i think plan "e" sounds like this. the house republicans for a few days will endure a shutdown and feel the political pain. there is a generational divide between members. some younger members elected in 2010 and 2012, they need to feel the pain and come back to the table. >> ashley, there's so many flaws and chinks in the armor with the plans abc, d and possibly erkts. one of the problems is it is a reminder of house republicans rejected the compromise committee 18 times before as hoyer pointed out. it sounds like the democrats will beat the drum as long as republicans propose this committee. >> the first problem with a conference committee is it involves both chambers. the house may want to go to conference but as you pointed out, harry reid said it is dead on arriv
