>> hi, melissa. there is a flurry of talk at least about the possible release of three american citizens who have been held for the last several months in north korea of the three are a businessman detained in 2015, and two who worked and taught at a christian charity backed university in pyongyang. they were arested in 2017. reports in the last few days had claimed the detainees accused by the regime of anti-government activity had been moved from a labor camp to a hotel on the outkirts of the north korean capital. we got no hard confirmation of that, melissa, but earlier today on fox news the former new york mayor and current member of president trump's legal team, rudy guiliani, went a little bit further. take a listen. >> the president of the united states, he's getting ready to negotiate probably one of our most historic agreements since the opening of china. and we got kim jong-un impressed enough to release three prisoners today. >> in fact, those three are still in detention in north korea. a

melissa? >> melissa: casey stegall, thank you. also at this hour we are learning disturbing new details about the suspected shooter. trace gallagher is live in our west coast newsroom with what we know now. trace? >> melissa, 17-year-old gatiogation described by his teachers as being quiet but quiet in a creepy wait a minute other students who knew him say he was calm and kind and yet at 7:45 this morning authorities say he walked into santa fe high school carrying a rival, .38 caliber rerevolver and array of explosives including molotov cocktail and pipe bomb. pagourtzis walked into art class and said surprise and opened fire. texas governor greg abbott says damning evidence was found inside the teen's home. watch. >> the shooter had information contained in journals on his computer and cell phone that he said that not only did he want to commit the shooting but he wanted to commit suicide after the shooting. as you probably know, he gave himself up and admitted at the time that he didn't have the courage to commit the suicide th

melissa. melissa: back to the markets. the dow turning negative for the year, ending down 54 points, but well off session lows. phil flynn, fox business contributor, watching all action from oil and gold from the cme. nick -- nicole, wan to start with you. what was the action like today. >> that is one of reasons why the dow jones industrial average could not clock in another win earlier this morning. the dow was up 10 of 11 trading days but couldn't hold on to gains of 70 points. got off earlier lows of 130 points. ended somewhere in the middle. tech and telecom showed weakness. the dow was down as well as s&p and nasdaq. you know what the small cap, russell, we discussed yesterday another record all-time high for the russell 2000. all this as oil gained. phil will hit that. look at cisco systems. tech and telecom has been a laggard. topping estimates with the outlook somewhat tepid. the stock down 3.7%. the country is in transition from legacy tech company moving to cyber and internet. 10-year bond yields moving to highs

>> hi, melissa. we are in hazelton city hall where the folks have been voting since the polls opened this morning. when they get to voting booth they will not see president trump's name on the ballot but for some, it almost might as well be. that is because the best known name that is running in this senate race today is that of congressman lou barletta. the president endorsed barletta. he was an early backer of the president's came -- call pain. the major issue they share is immigration. barletta thrust in the headlines in 2006 when he was the mayor of hazelton. back then he targeted the issue of illegal immigration. this morning we sat down with him and mayor barletta told us that when he took office the city was bankrupt, there was not enough revenue and there was such an influx that drained the services completely so the city passed ball to deny business permits to companies that hired illegal aliens, penalized landlords to those who rented to them and made english the official language. the laws

melissa: really? >> yes, subsidizing your enemies is not something that earns you respect in the world. melissa: so how do you reform it. we were talking about this earlier today and they put up the u.n. as a place where rather than having a world war, we can meet and have a place to talk and you have a place to delegates and a place to get together rather than miscommunication and all these other things. is that still valid and is there a way to do it more efficiently? >> you could do it more efficiently by renting a gymnasium in siberia, seriously, and inviting them to come talk. there is value to being able to talk with each other. on the other hand, the u.n. is now an enterprise system, it spends more than $50 billion a year which america provides the biggest share. to have all that money attached to it has been a big mistake. it's both morally corrupt and invites financial corruption. melissa: yeah, do you think anything gets done about it? nikki haley has been outspoken, she's been a star in thi

melissa. melissa: edward, thank you so much for that. david: here to respond on behalf of the trump administration, white house trade director peter navarro. we'll take questions with you on this i was surprised. world trade organization stats on countries around the world. europeans have tens of thousands of tariffs on u.s. products. not as though we're loading on something that they don't have against us. on the other hand people say we're close to full employment in the united states. we've got record growth going on here. we don't want to upset the applecart with these tariffs. how do you respond to that as maybe necessary some of these tariffs are, we're going great guns and you guys are slowing it down with this? >> david, you're certainly right this country has the lowest tariffs and non-tariff barriers in the world. countries and continents are taking advantage of it. europe, for example, when we try to sell them a car, tariff of 10%, plus 19% value-added tax in germany. 29% what we have 2.5%. maybe five to 10% sales tax, that is

melissa: and i'm melissa francis. this is "after the bell." phil flynn is watching the action from the flow of the cme. nicole petallides on the floor of the new york stock exchange. what a day. nicole, to you first, tell me about the wild trade. reporter: we dropped 505 points at lowest point of the day. concerns about political turmoil in italy. certainly set the tone. we saw the selling abroad, and the traders are watching key levels on the s&p 500 of 2700. 2695. art cashin on the floor talked about a trapped door, broke down to the downside and saw the selling. you have trade tariff worries and you have a concerning note from jpmorgan about revenues going forward being relatively flat, and that weight on the financials. you see jpmorgan biggest laggard on the dow jones industrial average down 4.2%. the financials really came under pressure. american express, goldman sachs among the losers. ge has been a constant laggard. but you can see that the financials in particular got hit, not only because of the jpmorgan outlook but also because of
