They put up a socalled beacon on a location to draw players to the spot. Police say around 2 00 in the morning, four teens robbed a person at gunpoint who was playing the game. Wow. It wraps reality.

You could have a pokemon around you. Pocket monster. Why are you laughing . Stop laughing. Just because the camera is on you. He never thought id out him on that. Pocket monsters. Especially with what hes done. Speaking of, we should talk about the global rally following fridays strong jobs report here in the states. U. S. Stocks are set to open solidly in the green. Joining us is drew maddox. You have ubss deputy kmeef economist. Friday was something to watch, drew. Youre looking at stocks sitting within a couple of points of at time highs. It tells you one is wrong. My view is that the bond market is wrong. Youre seeing inflation pick up. Youll see that, i think, later this week. Youre seeing average out of the earnings to youve seen a recovery in job growth. Looks to me like actually the slowing in job growth since the beginning of the year has more to do with the fact its hard to find good people than were not producing enough jobs. Its increase lg i difficult to fill the roles created. I kept seeing that. One person or one side has to be wrong. I dont know why. I think its different this time because youre looking at Global Forces that are if it says that one is risk on and one is risk off. Thats supposedly why. Weve been told all along, if its going to be zero and stay there for a long time, stocks are the only place to be. Not only that, in low Interest Rates, theyll stay low. Multiples expand. I dont understand why theyre mutually exclusive. Its risk on how does it end . Theyre only about five years old. How does it end . Doesnt end until rates go up. As long as they stay low, based on what becky talked about, the global so youre safe with multiples being as high as 20 times earnings then. You got to put your money somewhere. Where are you going to put it . My view is that it works until it doesnt. Then once it breaks recovery. Once it breaks down, once either inflation picks up and yields are moving higher or alternatively the economy rolls over, one of the two sides will be right. One has got to be wrong. If you look at the bond market, what do you do with your money in the meantime . It could last five years, ten years. Nobody knows how long well be if it its japan, it could be 20. If youre looking at the long periods, what should you should you put money in the bond yields thats what i think a lot of investors are trying to figure out. Ask yourself the following question. Would you like to put your money into a bond and lend it to someone and get back the less of rate of inflation . No. Or less than you length them on a nominal basis. We have finite life spans, right . The idea of negative yields makes sense. Why would you ever defer. In augmented reality maybe. Thats what im going to do. Youre going to upload. Download myself. What if what if global bond yeeds are telling you actually that you will make above the rate of inflation . What if the whole world is becoming japan . Well, the evidence of that is pretty low, i think. Were actually seeing inflation in the United States, were seeing Wage Inflation in the United States. We have i think unlike japan, particularly the United States, we have positive population growth which typically leads to positive growth in the economy on a real basis. And if we look ahead to kind of productivity numbers, if we look ahead to what looks like the Second Quarter is going to look like for productivity, it looks like it will accelerate. Our growth rate is relatively stable but our rate of payroll growth has slowed. Real growth in the economy is beginning to look like the potential seems like its beginning to creep up a little bit. Not fast. Not enough to get the fedex sighted certainly. But it seems like its moving. I think if she raises rates, it takes some of the pressure off other banks. I look at all Central Banks as being linked together. If one begins to pull a little too far from the others, then the others have to follow. But if the fed is low as it is, and maybe it should be higher, everyone else has to be that much lower. They dont have to work so hard if the fed raises. They dont have to be as negative. Friday was such a good day for i think japan up as much as what we did friday as as the abe election. Im back to thinking that gold is the place to be. You know the big wrap on gold, it doesnt pay any interest. If cash pays negative interest. Then its a bonanza. Its no worse than bondo owe youre not getting a yield anywhere. You might as well be in something thats been the currency of the world for you can get i dont think its over for gold at all. Whats that . You can go through the storage cost rate. How much does it cost to store x amount of cash. You have to buy a safe, right . It doesnt cost money to if youre going to hold get a lot of it. Fort knox. I mean, i didnt i may have sold maybe some i would have sold something maybe to buy some gold. Comcast has been better than gold anyway. Im not bitter about this at all. But i still think gold might be he tried to buy at the low. Right. Got through all this paperwork. Inapp purchases. Such as pokemon. Am i uploading myself or downloading myself . I dont know. You can go either way. You know that about me. Not that theres anything wrong with that. If i take my brain and go make it hardware download, is it uploading or downloading . I think you would up load. Think of yourself as upgrading. Probably not going to be able to smart enough to do it. Im going to get an avatar. Ive reserved andrews avatar. Why do you want andrews avatar . I want to look like andrew. You dont want to look like you . My avatar crazy future for all of us. Andrew, thanks for coming in today. Good to see you. When we come back, nbc news confirming that the Trump Campaign is vetting retired general Michael Flynn as a potential running mate. Well be joined on the veep stakes after this break. For decades, investors have used a 640 stock and bond model, with lite in altnatives. Yet alteates can opportunities that traditional assets can and even though theyre theye actually designed to he meet very traditional goals. shynvesco believes people should look past conventional models and make alternativea core part of their portfolios. Translation . Goodbye 60 40, hello 50 30 20. Donald trump expected to announce his vp pick. A lineup of speakers will be announced also. Meantime, this is Bernie Sanders may or may not at some point endorse Hillary Clinton. Will it happen . When will it happen . He may appear at a rally with Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire tomorrow. Here with the latest on the campaign trail is chief washington correspondent t john harwood. I can solve that miss for you, joe. It was a quiet weekend in the campaign as the nation was digesting the aftermath of the horrific shootings in dallas. The earlier Police Shootings in baton rouge and minneapolis and the candidates wisely lay low over the weekend. Its going to accelerate this week. Donald trump is honing in on his Vice President ial candidate. Lets look at who the leading prospects are. Number one in my book, this is where my money is. Mike pence the governor of indiana. Donald trump will campaign with him on tuesday. Trump has said he would announce his pick before the convention. Youve got newt gingrich, the former House Speaker, chris christie, of course the governor of new jersey who ran earlier this year and retired general Michael Flynn who is a democrat and critical of obama. That name was floated over the weekend. As i said, my money is on mike pence. Secondly on the democratic side, Hillary Clinton over the weekend made a series of policy conceptions on health care to Bernie Sanders. Proposing or affirming her support for letting people buy into medicare at age 55, expanding funding for Community Health centers, reaffirming her support for some sort of public option in obama care. Bernie sanders in return sealed the deal. Hes going to endorse her on tuesday. But that event, again, is likely to be overshadowed because president obama is going to speak in dallas with a message of unity for the entire nation. So dont know how much attention the sanders, clinton event will get. Certainly its welcome on Hillary Clintons camp. She has been struggling to finally unite the party, get the last vestige of sanders Supporters Holding out. That will give her some sort of boost if not immediately over the next few days, guys. Some of the hollywood types that are way left are they were mad it was bizarre john. The world is topsy turvy. They were made at comey too. They thought if comey indicted her, that would be bernies chance. Mark ruffalo, some of those types. Tim robbins. Susan sarandon. They may never, even if bernie does do it, they may never i dont know how many are there . You get in the campaign and you may be an extreme long shot and you may understand that. But once you get a taste of that electricity of the crowds and the adulation of people, its hard to give it up. I was going to say, i spoke with one of the guys organizing the bernie, pro bernie events that will happen at the Democratic National convention. He was so antihillary and i said, well, does that mean youre going to vote for trump . What do you do . He said, this is a quote john, we will never vote for the demon named hillary because we fear the devil named trump. We will only vote for a saint. So im not sure how many of the Bernie Sanders sounds like a genius. But theyre hardcore. Im not sure. Theyre talking about trying to disrupt the Democratic Party and getting people to deregister from the dnc. Wow. I think michelle, theres a group that may feel that way. But i dont think its a very large group and i think that what is likely, Hillary Clinton has been getting in polling somewhere in the low to mid80s of democrats. You pretty much need in our modern party system, 90 within your own party to be truly competitive. I think it is likely. I dont know where shes going to be within her party five days from now. I think shes likely to creep up a little bit once bernie finally gets on the stage and holds his hand up with hers, the sort of classic unity salute. Theres some holdouts and some never hillarys too, just like there are never trumps. I dont think theres too many of them. John, over the weekend,th democrats put together their party platform. Theres a lot of influence from Bernie Sanders and elizabeth warren. Is people who had been looking back and forth at the two parties certainly it gives ammunition for republicans to use with centrists. But the truth is, the Party Platforms dont influence too many people. Its an insiders game. Its a fight among people who are trying to send signals about the future and the things that Hillary Clinton accepted from Bernie Sanders, i wouldnt bet a lot of money on Hillary Clinton, for example, when she becomes president expending an enormous amount of political i think 15 everybody making 15 federal minimum wage. They endorse the idea of eventually going to 15 minimum wage. Do i think shes going o push that and its going to be front and center . I doubt it. Something else that i was thinking oh, what is the i know theres a real clear politics like combination of all the national polls, john. We follow that. But every once in a while a big one comes along and im sure like rasmussen was way wrong last time, i think. I dont know if people still follow that. Gallop you probably follow more. When is the next big one due to be released that includes all that fbi stuff from last week . Im not 100 sure. I think we may have a poll coming out this week. Nbc wall street journal right . Uhhuh. Whats the gold is that the Gold Standard now . We work for them. Well say yes to that or who was closest last time . Well, im not sure who was closest last time. But i consider the nbc wall street journal poll because its fairly conservative, it doesnt swing, you dont see it lurch from a big lead for somebody to a big lead for somebody else. I think ours is the best the Washington Post abc news poll is also a good, Pew Research Center is good. Right now theres a rough con senn ses on the average of polls of four or five points. National Weather Service before fbi. Thats right. Thats right. We will see whether that had a significant effect. When you talk about you got 40 and 40. Were either talking about the middle 20 or the middle 15. I mean, its bizarre. Yep. All right. What john, who is your Vice President ial pick . 121 days. My Vice President ial pick . For hillary, i want her to pick al franken. For trump . For trump, well, let me think about that. Can i get back to you on that . Man, youre going to weasel out of it . Im a weasel. I think youre probably right about pence. I wish either pence or does it matter . I dont know when you got were you going to say kudlow . Kudlow has some ideas that i thought had sommer it. I dont know what will finally happen. I wanted to make sure you werent picking kudlow . No. Hes my treasury secretary or commerce or labor. Or maybe all three. Well combine them. Trade rep. If there is ever any trade again. Coming up, thanks, john. The farnborough air show in england kicking off with large deal announcements.

Couple of stocks to watch this morning. Kinder morgan is selling a stake in the natural gas line 1. 5 billion. Well Care Health Plans and senn teen corporation made competing offers for some of aetnas assets. Aetna is looking to shed Medicare Advantage programs to help win approval for merger with mu humana. A historical look at stocks that do well in the summertime. Landon dowdy is tracking summer sizzlers. We do this, i think, every year, landon. It works well because we do have summer every year, normally. Which is a very good thing. I dont hate summer. Do you . No. I dont. Thats true. Thats good, joe. Its officially in full swing. Sell in may and go away. That may not be the best course of action. Looking back over the summer since 2010, there are five s p sectors that heat up as the weather gets warmer. Were going to call them summer sizzle letters. Telecom at number 5. Here are the stocks that outperformed. Frontier communications has an 8 return on average with more than 80 of the trades positive. When you think of frontier, you think of internet and phone services, but it provides solar energy to residential customers. Also, verizon, it heats up with an average return of 1. 3 . The Telecom Company sizzles positive trades 50 of the time during the summer and joe, tune in tomorrow for the number 4 spot on my list of summer sizzlers. Thanks so much, landon. Heavy hitters. Talking to heavy hitters on the phone and all the heavy hitters in aviation. Im still more important than you. His agent called in. Even though its 3 30 in the morning. Hes on vacation. I dont know if he ever is on vacation. I dont know if he ever sleeps like kramer. I dont know. That was a good phone call, right . Hes so busy with that deal that he called you. You remember wall street . Money never sleeps, pal. Thats right. Giving him a lot of it. That tells you something. All i care about is sleep. I love it so much. Heavy hitters on the phone to heavy hit ners the Aviation Industry, theyre all at the farnborough air show striking deals for the latest aircraft on the runway. Phil lebeau joins us with the founder of air lease executive steven halls i. Phil. Reporter michelle, youre youre going to be leasing 12 of the aircraft that Virgin Atlantic placed an order with airbus for, right . These are the largest version of them. Theyll get the first deliver any 2019. We have two deliveries in 2020 and 2021. Reporter you have your fingers all over this industry in terms of aircraft leasing. Yes. Reporter a lot of talk about a drop in orders here at the show and whether or not we see an industry slowing down. You dont see it that way, do you . No. The backlog of orders at airbus and others are at alltime record highs. Production rates are still increasing. Were deploying aircraft four or five years ahead of time. Good example is the virgin deal. Our deliveries in 2020 and 21. Were placing aircraft four or five years in advance of dlif ris. Reporter this is about a Global Market for commercial flying thats not slowing down. Exactly. I mean, last year we had about 3. 6 billion passengers worldwide. The u. S. Represented a little over 700 million of that. But the industry is still growing at 5 , 6 a year. On a cumulative basis thats very significant. Reporter against at that backdrop, when you look at air leases, stock, or any of the leasing companies, its as if investors look at it and say yeah, theres more people flying and more planes being leased out. Yet they dont seem to look at the stocks as growth stocks. Yeah, which is unfortunate. I mean, in our case, we double our size of a Company Every three years. The Airline Industry itself doubles every 12 to 14 years. Its still a growth market. But the financial analysts dont seem to understand that reporter what are they missing . Well have to see. Performance will eventually show them that were a growth company. Reporter so many of your customers when leasing from you they want upgraded or Business Class seats. Exactly. Reporter how much more growth is there in that Business Class market . You look at whats happening between europe and the u. S. Thats exploded in terms of the number of seats. Atlantic has exploded. A lot of airlines done away with first class. Theyve upgraded their Business Class cabins. For example, the large u. S. Carriers like delta, american united, they offer a high quality Business Class product. Reporter is there enough demand, though . Its a growing demand. Youre not worried about too much. We hear this from people saying you can only offer so many Business Class seats before you hit a limit. Its a small fraction of the total number of seats. Maybe 15 to 20 of the seats are premium seats. Its not the overwhelming portion of the market. But it is the high yield element of the market. Reporter what market right now or region worries you the most in the world . Id say brazil is going through a tough time. In terms of economic growth, political instability, russia is still recovering from the sanctions imposed by the western countries. Other than that, we are seeing strong growth everywhere else. Executive chairman of air lease. Every year we talk to you, you have optimism over this market. It will come around. Reporter guys back to you. Phil, thanks. Big planes and everything. Pretty good gig. Before we head to break, check this out. One unlucky woman at at t park in San Francisco had to sacrifice her beer for her safety over the weekend. Paul goldsmiths foul popup was headed straight for her. So she raised her tray and her beer and snacks took the hit. Adding insult to injury, she didnt even get the foul ball. It was claimed by another fan. Somebody took that ball from her after she sacrificed that . Thats not right. When youre there, bats come flying. You got to Pay Attention. Its a numbers game. Thats why if youre buying a lottery ticket, youre definitely getting hit by a ball. At least she was paying attention. Thats good. Exactly. See her face. We talked about this earlier. The secret life of pets. Fetching a big weekend ahead. I dont know. Im going to stick my neck out. There might be a sequel someday. Ill have the numbers from the box office next. As we head to break, heres a quick check of the european markets right now. Its green after what happened in japan. Welcome back to squawk box. Time now for the executive edge. Summer travelers getting a bit of relief at the gas pump. Prices dropping . 07 over the week. Gallon of regular unleaded averages, this is like a symphony. 2. 29. Its like i cant remember high school. But its not that different i dont think. The lowest prices can be found now, maybe half that, in charleston, south carolina. An average of 1. 91 a gallon. They have to pump their own gas. So here well not here, right across the hudson, some of the cheapest in the nation. Another reason im a new jersey they pump it for you. I love that in the winter. They do the windshield. Then your hands dont smell like gas. They clean my windows. They do mine, too actually. I gas up in new jersey. I drive to new jersey every day from the city. Thats right. For the studio out there. Thats right. Going out there today. They wash my windshield too. They do sn. The one near the station on palisades or the one from the corner from the station. Right down the street. I need bugs are hard to get off. Do you notice that . The guys get them off. You got to use serious elbow grease. Otherwise, you do it and you get back in and its like, theyre all still there. The remnants. Last thing that enters a bugs mind is the windshield. Switching gears. Youre going to hear from peta. Probably. Corporate news. Another project tease from teslas ceo elon musk to tell you about. He took to twit toer let his followers know about publishing part 2 of the tesla master plan. Does this this is amid inkwir i was the two crashes of tesla cars. If the fact pattern holds, that would be the case. It would be tough to work without that i think. When youre in solar panels and electric cars, yep. I mean, paypal didnt require a subsidy. The blue is starting to come off the rose. Too many its not just the production delays. Its this autopilot. Theyve had two crashes, one which they didnt report for a long time. There are now questions about that. No brainer. The solar city deal. I expect things like that are going to happen with autopilot. Thats the nature it. That was a trojan horse. They put this out there. The customers didnt even realize they were buying an auto driving car. Autopilot car. They turned it on overnight tnd it was a way to avoid the regulators. At what point do they catch up with it and say youre basically running a beta test around the nation. Its one thing if you choose to do that. Thats how it generally works within the auto industry. You run tests. Theyre not necessarily testing everything exhaustively. A selfdriving car has a lot of different implications than a new upgraded software in a car. For sure. Granted, that ultimately lower but if youre going to have these things on the street, it just strikes me as something that regulators would want to weigh in on. Probably. In the list of transgressions, the solar city thing bothers me a lot more. Financial shenanigans in my opinion as that would bother me in a huge way. As a citizen, this bothers me. I saw a twitter or drudge or somewhere this morning, the prototype of the developers rushing to get the flying car into production. They had a picture of a little of a car with wings. Im thinking, man, thats thats jetsons. No its not jetsons. Theres going to be some problems there. We heard about one guy driving into a semi. I mean if youre flying, you wont hit the semi. The beta testing beta things being out flying cars . Doesnt bother me. Really . Yes. Turning right on red in a flying car, you think thats going to be easy to do . Its going to be great. Youre the one who wants to live forever. You have to come to grips with this. Me. 85 im done. You want to go on and live with this. You remember newton. Gravity is different than driving along on four wheels. But we defied everything. Phil is at the air show today where they defy gravity all the time. Drones are falling out of the sky. For now. You get yourself a car and drive out there every day. I bet ben franklin didnt price insurance correctly when he first started. Talking about life and death. Its a different situation. Its not a product that fails, it takes somebody out with it. Theres a lot of people that pilot their own planes, singleengine planes. Would i ever take flying lessons . You read about it so much. I want to live so much. People die when cars first came out and on horses. Im going to find it. Theres an argument for saying betas shouldnt be on the road. Even wozniak said this is like a beta version on the road. Im going to get you a picture of it. Lets tell you quickly, theres a new contender taking a bite out of the competition at the box office this weekend. The secret life of pets pulling in more than 103 million in the United States and canada. The movie from universal and elimination entertainment, which is the maker of despicable me, follows what your pets do when youre not home. Its what we thought they were doing. Its the sixth biggest opening for any animated film and the best ever for any movie. Pixar finding dori fell to third. It has made 122 million. Makes it the top grossing movie of the year so far. Mike thompson from s p will tell us why hes predicting disappointment. Thats after the break. Stick around. In a world held back by compromise, businees need the agilit to do one thing another. Only at t has the network, people, and partners to help mpanies be. Lopen sure. L. Because no one knows like at t. Second quarter earning season kicking off slow companies this week alcoa black rock, jpmorgan, citigroup and wells fargo. For more on what to expect this time around were joined by mike thompson, S P Investment advisers, five quarters of negative comparisons year over year. Four. It will be five after this theoretically. Thats if we have another negative quarter. But right now the consensus is that well actually squeak by and get a positive one. I wouldnt read too much into that. Ive been dead wrong. I thought this was going to be shortlived after one or two negative quarters but its been four. Revenue growth is negative and were going to be right now looks like were going to be down negative 5. 3 for the quarter for the entire s p f. From what, revenue . On earnings. I thought you said earnings would be positive. That would be next quarter. That will be five. This is four. Quarter four. The expectation for the next quarter, quarter three is for 2 growth. That would be the break. When the last energy comp falls off the previous year, right . Thats right. Lets look at next year calendar year earnings are expected to jump into double digits, 14 . I mean, that is all comps. Thats is all comps. This quarter alone, energy is a drag to the tune of i think its down itself 89 for the quarter. But even if you take out energy, right, for this quarter, joe, youre still negative, down about almost negative 1 . A general weakness in Earnings Growth. When does the dollar drop, strength of the dollar drop off, strong again versus euro. Thats really the interesting thing because weve been going through this and the dollar has, you know, only strengthened. Thats actually going to actually have a negative impact in terms of, you know, repatriation of foreign currencies. Honestly, joe, that is right now one of the things when you talk to analysts what they are trying to sort out. We within our own firm have been having this kind of crazy debate about what percentage of revenues and try and derive from there earnings are from the s p from international businesses. You know, our best estimate is that youre in the 30 handle for revenues, but we dont really have as good an understanding, nor do most analysts. What would it be without currency for revenue. How much is revenue down year over year. Revenue is slightly negative. I think its down about a half a percent. Then without currency it would be up. So we are growing . On the top line. On the top line. Thats why i said revenue. It is top line, isnt it . Yeah. The same thing. Yeah. The challenge is this, right, youve got slow growth. Its really interesting. Whats happened is with analysts, theres so much more is going on below the line. In other words, a lot of the Earnings Growth is not coming from the business itself. Its coming from a lot of engineering. Thats where the challenges are and how do you defend the evaluations we have right now. So markets high, brexit happens, ftse goes high makes sense in 0 interest world. I think it does matter. When s p is better than treasury ten year. Thats why this is happening.

You can see stocks are higher once again. S p up 5 points. On friday it closed at 2129, which was within about a point of closing high of 2130. Would put it above that level continue to track close to closing bell, nasdaq up 19. Oil prices have been under pressure this morning. Youre going to see right now wti down 51 cents to 44. 90. Cracking below 45. All right. Here are this mornings headlines. A big week ahead for fed related speeches. July meeting of policymakers draws near. A dozen speeches and events this week. Wow. One of those is today with Kansas City Fed president Esther George speaking on the economy at 10 00 eastern time. More from steve liesman. Radio business public, indicated this year. 117 stations across the country and ipo would raise 100 million. Gasoline prices down 7 cents. Average price 2. 20. Thats 0. 54 lower than a year ago. This week full of Economic Data and earnings, the season under way. No Economic Data today, but toll tomorrow look for may whole say trade followed by june import prices. Fed beige book wednesday, june Producer Price index thursday. Also on thursday, Pay Attention to the bank of englanded policy meeting. Friday retail sales, cpi, Industrial Production and first look at Consumer Sentiment for july. In earnings we have alcoa reporting after the close today. Csx and young brands on wednesday. Jpmorgan and black rock out on thursday. Marking the official start of earnings season. Well hear from citi, wells fargo, u. S. Bank corp. And Pnc Financial on friday. The jobs report was crazy on friday. 30,000 the month before, then what was it, 280. 287. We see how much flux there is in that. Im just glad fed has the same amount and raise same amount of variability. We go from going to do it in june or july for sure, then we got to 38 and not doing it here at all again. Then we get friday and definitely doing it now in september. Im just glad that our lives are based on its just if you ask dan fisher about this at jackson hole, youre like, really, its been years and one month is going to make a difference . One month will make a difference. I think theres got to be a way to get off this train make how. I think of it from a longer term standpoint, especially something that affects the economy, six fonts to a year. Lags in policy are long and variable. Rules based system would work better. I think if there was a rulesbased system that accounted for variability, john taylor is probably writing in right now, the thing we proposed does have some flexibility in there. I think that would be something that might be a better way to go about it. Im not sure, joe. Were going to talk about that in jackson hole this year. Were going to get direct fed commentary this week on the massive jobs rebound. Im sorry to correct you, michelle, but its 14 fed appearances. Probably didnt do all the counting, new information. So she said 12. 14, youre right. Now well be clear. The question is whether they all stick to what is the assumed script. Thats this. The fed is on hold through the summer while it awaits information about the impact of brexit and wont begin thinking about a rate hike until data in the fall. The question becomes does the fed speak put september hike back into play. Here is what it looks like in terms of this whole week. Esther george, tuesday, kaplan, harker, mess ter. Im interested in Esther George. A leading hawk. Does not dissent, voted not to change. May be reassured rebounds in Economic Data but more closely following foreign Financial Market developments. S p says last weeks data should put to rest fears recovery is faltering. Plus all the major have come back from brexit. Its huge. Its like it didnt happen. Currency markets and bond markets. Bonds remain lower. Its interesting equities have trouble with the bond rate. Thats the story when you look at the fed forecast. They forecast the federate, at a lower Interest Rate for the fed. It takes more juice, more energy. Try 0 Interest Rates and argue the stock market should be doing well. When should the stock market be doing well. Its supposed to be doing well at 0. People keep saying that. Something is wrong. The bond market a discounting mechanism about the future. It is. Getting played this time. You cant ignore the reality thats out there. Ecb is negative, bank of japan is negative. 11 trillion in bonds globally are negative. Its not like the fed and u. S. Interest rates can be completely immune to whats going on globally. The only thing i would say to watch, joe mentioned retail sales report, consumers been doing very well, running 4 clip and watching that. Consumer didnt do as well in the last gdp revision. Went down a little bit but its this quarter were talking about, the Second Quarter number, looking for 2 1 2, 2 gdp rebound. Youre spilling coffee all over the place, becky. Its because youre concerned about the consumer. Hold on. Stick around. Well talk about the earnings season, markets, christina hooper, u. S. Investment strategist, fellow wellesley alum, good to have you here. Great to be here. We had a discussion very interesting. There are people who argue the stock market is rising but yields are falling. Two different stories. Which of those will be correct. At the same time joe points out, hold on, when yields are going down, down, down, down, where else do you put your money by stock market. Its a natural place to go and this relationship makes sense. What do you think . I think a little of both because you cant control yields. So many different factors are impacting yields on the long end that it tells so many different stories. Right now its telling the story of strangulation of yields outside u. S. , global uncertainty outside u. S. Thats bringing investors to it. So at the same time certainly stocks become one of the few options for investors. But i dont know if its painting an entirely rosey picture. There are a lot of issues out there. Such as . Certainly a lot of uncertainty about brexit. I know markets seem to have discounted over the shorter term but we do expect it to have an impact on growth in the next several years. Why laugh . The pound is much cheaper. That should help tourism and Everything Else. If countries worried about staying or leaving start to get their own houses in order in terms of Structural Reforms and forced to do it instead of being protected by stronger countries, why wouldnt that event be positive. That could be longer term outcome, one or two years. Markets are wrong. Markets are wrong here. Ftse wrong, all wrong, all above where they were before. All the experts are right, this is a horrible thing. Not necessarily but its too early to tell. Its too easy its too early for the stock market to discount this. Can i make one point about this, joe. One of things that happens in economics is when stuff is set up to do one thing, one reality and then you have a different reality, and whats happened is with brexit if london leaves uk, you may have whats called idol resources. Things may be idol. If it actually happens or in the way its thought to happen. The same language will its funny. My point is you have, for example, banks in london that are there based to do business through the eu that may not be the Perfect Place to be. Michelle, it goes right down party lines in this country, too, brexit versus nonbrexit. 60 of republicans think brexit is a good thing. 90 of statist, socialist, democrats think its a bad thing. I wasnt making a political point. You cant help it. Its a simple reality, joe. When you have a factory in place and it changes, you have declined economics. I fail to see what the possible political aspect of that is. Possibly offset elitist spin on this. Thats absurd. Talk about it three hours a day. Both parties. Not both parties. Im saying the elitist spin god, i talked to sir martin last week. I swear, he couldnt get out of bed the day after, the day after it happened. Christina, what do i do here . Do i buy stocks or dont i . Well, you need to have exposure to risk assets but extremely selective about it. This is not an environment in which all stocks will go up. Were going to have to worry about fundamentals. Well have to worry and focus on those stocks. You know whey want to buy . I want to buy utilities because it pays a dividend and yield. Is that a good idea . In general, yes. Looking for a yield is a good idea. All stocks go up s p a point away from alltime high. 500 of them and they have been all been going up. But from here on out were going to need you to tell us which one . No, joe, but what investors do need to do because risks are increasing globally, we might be seeing a good economy in the United States but as we know that can change. How do we know third increasing not decreasing. Finally the culmination of all these screwups over the past five years are coming to a head. How do we know risks are increasing. We know uncertainty is. It was more uncertain before brexit, whether they were going to do it or whether they werent. Theres always uncertainty. We dont know exactly how this is all going to shape out. When do we ever. If its up 10 in three months. The market gets it right half the time, just so you know. The market gets it right the market is not always right and elitists are not always right, not always wrong, not always right. Joe, youre not always right, you know. I think thats something we can probably go back and look. What does it look like. I think its Something Like taking joe out to dinner or doing something really nice. No. I think youre right, looking at the other side, contrary. I think we would be wrong not to point out the clients need to worry about risks. It doesnt mean you dont take risks but you have to be discerning about the risks. Weve had a churning, rolling correction for the last two years. Nobody thinks were immediately going up 10, 12, 15, 20 right now. Which usually means all. All this consolidation has been done. Well see. It could very well but that doesnt mean all markets are going to go up. Maybe the u. S. Market is going to do a lot better than other markets. I think this week when you start getting earnings and this notion you had a guest in the last hour, theres a pretty good chance of a decent double digit rebound in earnings, all the other stuff falls away. We can have a discussion about brexit ad nauseam, but double digit returns, economy showing solid economic growth, even 2, 2. 5 range, you have a risk to go higher. I dont know about the spanish banks, though. What is that one bank . Italian bank . No [ speaking Foreign Language ] thats italian . Its a popular word for bank in general. There is a lot. When did you say that . The producers, they love it. [ speaking Foreign Language ] did you have them do that . I didnt ask for it. It does sound beautiful. They told me, its ready. How am i supposed to get into this. This reminds me of kevin kline and a fish called wanda. He speaks everything with an italian accent. It reminds me of morticia. When you speak french thanks for having me. I love it, joe. When you come back, get your story straight. Youre going to have to be skplaeng h explaining how everything is peachy.

The latest aircraft orders and the most Efficient Engine Technology both hot topics at the air show. Phil lebeau joins us with United Technology. Thank you very much. Let me bring in greg hayes at the air show. We were talking before we went on. Brexit a big part of the conversation, Prime Minister cameron was here earlier today. What kind of impact do you think brexit will have not only in your business or Aviation Industry here. As we think about it, there was some initial concern, hysteria about brexit but if you think about it, uk is one of the moves investable places to manufacturer, quite frankly, its a great place to invest for the longterm. While theres going to be some associated with brexit discussion longterm we think this is a great place to manufacture. We do over a billion dollars of Aerospace Manufacturing here. Is the fear overstated here in europe and relative to the United States . Like anything, the fears of the unknown. I think once they get down the path, they start to understand what it means, its hard to imagine a scenario where youre going to not see still a robust market here in the uk. This is an interesting show because there are fewer large orders announced. It has people talking about, are we finally seeing a slowdown in demand for new airplanes. Is the industry finally slowing down. You see it perhaps a little bit differently, right . Phil, if you think about it, the orders, of course, this year arent going to be big gigantic orders. The fact is boeing and airbus, bombardier all have record back logs. The focus for the industry next two or three years is about execution, executing on the backlog. Think about turbo fan, deliver 200 engines this year, 400 next year and 800. For us its about executing on the ramp as it is for all the aerospace suppliers. With that backlog you think youre past the problems of the initial ramp up . I mentioned before first aircraft got delivered to lufthansa, 60 better fuel born, 50 better emission, lower noise. To date since the engine has been in Service Since january, 99. 75 dispatch reliability. A great engine, delivering what we told the customers it would. At the same time ceo al baker, out there, very vocal about his complaints regarding your engine. What do you say to him when you talk to him about his kemps that this is just not living up to the performance expected. What i would say to him, i think youre wrong. I think the engine is doing exactly what we said its going to do. We dont want to negotiate in public, qatar a Great Customer longterm, i expect well have a long future with akbar and qatar airlines. We think the engine is great, lufthansa, indigo, all guys operating today, they would tell you its a great engine. Greg, i know joe has a question for you back in the studio. Joe, go ahead. Probably would have started talking about this anyone. Great to see you. After rebuffing honeywell, its possible utx would do a big deal. I wonder, is that still on the horizon . Cody wasnt retiring at that point, was he . Do you think regulatory concerns, antitrust issues, if hes out, youre young, maybe go from the other way. Joe, i said it back in february, ill say it again. We dont need to do m a to grow the business. If you have an ton to create value for shareholders were going to look at that. With the backlog on the aerospace side, growing urbanization we see on commercial side of the business, utc has great growth prospects. We donned need m a to grow. Greg, its michelle here. You talked about the uk earlier when phil asked about the Brexit Impact and how competitive the uk economy is. Compared to the rest of europe, how do you see the uk . Will they be able to compete even if they arent associated with eu . You know, michelle, its an interesting question. I think youve got to go back to what i talked about in terms of the competitiveness of the uk economy. A competitive tax policy, tax rate. They have got system of taxation that only taxes profits that you make here in the uk. Got a great labor force and very Flexible Work rules, which is something you dont see on the rest of the continent. Greg, one last question. You talked a little about it in rebuffing honeywell. Overall do you see any record for large m a in aerospace. I think large m a is difficult, phil. From utc perspective were 30 billionaireo space supplier. Unless you show real value oems, consolidation, customers say we dont need bigger suppliers. Not that we wont see consolidation in the supply chain but probably very little activity. Ceo United Technologies joining us here at farnborough. Surprisingly some sunshine, maybe flyovers in a bit. Thanks. Our thanks to greg hayes as well. Our take on Global Markets for the second half of the year as well as the ongoing Brexit Impact were joined by richard turnill, global chief investment strategist, joins us from london. Richard, thanks for being here today. My pleasure. Lets get straight to how the markets have changed in a post brexit world. How have your views on this changed . Where are you feeling like theres opportunities and where are you feeling like you need to pull back a little . This feels more and more like were an environment of low returns and high volatility for sometime. That post brexit, those things already being exacerbated. Youre seeing returns being pulled down clearly in fixed income markets, the fallen yields and equity markets as well impacted by whats likely to be Slower Growth particularly here in the uk and rest of europe, also some impact on the rest of the world. Then the Political Uncertainty ahead of us going to last not weeks or quarters but potentially for years. Thats going to create ongoing volatility in the future. In that environment what will investment do, in come, equities and income, greater source of return going forward, areas like emerging market debt, Investment Grade look very attractive. Inequities, i think youve got to focus on quality. Youve got to focus on those companies in the longterm. When theres benefit from Technology Change and sustaining Earnings Growth in what is a very growth challenged world. Lets break that down into two camps. First of all, fixed income. As you mentioned, yields are close to nonexistent for a lot of traditional instruments that youd be using. Is it worth it for people i know you said volatility rises, if youre getting next to nothing on some of these investments, is it worth it or are you simply talking about places you get higher yield as you mentioned in emerging markets . I think were going to be selective with income. Its very hard to find value in fixed income anywhere. Yields accepting low levels. The forces driving yields down are still in play. Arguably post brexit they have got even stronger. Those forces are very low, not potentially falling global growth. Central bank policy expecting a rate cut from the bank of england later this week followed by qe. Were expecting more qe in europe, actively buying more fixed income assets including credit. Were expecting more qe from the bank of japan later this year and the fed on hold for foreseeable futures. Those forces driving down remain in place for a long period of time. So fixed income i still think plays an important role. What you need to do is focus on where youre getting sufficient reward taking risks moving out of some of the safe assets. Two areas we focus on, Investment Grade credit, which is getting particularly well supported by ecb purchasing but also emerging market debt. In a world where theres so few places to find attractive income right now, emd, emerging market debt really stands out. More stable dollar environment and with the fed now on hold, we think that creates a much more attractive environment for investing in emerging market assets. Its michelle here. Im reading through Asset Allocation, if anybody gets your release actually, theres 13 Asset Allocation possibilities here. You specifically say when it comes to em debt make sure its local currency, right, you dont want to worry about the dollar. When i look at these 13 different breakdowns, your neutral to positive on everything except youre negative on european equities. Why is that . Youre simply not being paid for the risk right now in europe. Specifically when you dig down and look at areas like the financial sector, we see the risk to European Growth skewed to the downside, full impact of brexit is yet to play out. Even doing whatever it takes . Well, i think what you see is ecb supporting bond market but actually ecb has been doing whatever it takes for some time, yet equity markets moving lower, bond market doing very well. I think ultimately you need to see a recovery coming through in europe. I think ecb alone isnt going to support equity market. One of the key lessons of the last few years is that Monetary Policy alone is not solving financial global crisis. Shocker. Move away from the policy onto other areas. Ecb, bond market, much less convinced it supports equity market. Richard, why do you think uk outperformed other forces following brexit . I think in the initial reaction its about sterling and what that means to translation effect and what it means. You said Slower Growth. It remains significantly challenged. Small cap area they are doing to see Slower Growth in midcap area is going to see lower growth. I think the exporters, youve just had in fact, 15 devaluation in the currency. We think that could go lower still. Uk exporters one of the few beneficiaries of this trend listed in the uk. Must be a lot in the ftse. Must be a lot in ftse. 80 of revenues in ftse come from outside the uk. Richard, i thought you were going to say, yes, the one exception because i see it written here in the report, the one exception for your negativity on european equities is large cap uk exporters. You guys are actually recommending them, right . Yeah, i think they are really well placed. Think about what were looking for. Were looking for quality. Were looking for Dividend Growth and companies will benefit from Significant Exchange rate movement. Many of those Companies Listed right here in the uk. As far as for sovereign issues, was there any part of you that said im glad this is happening in terms of not having bureaucrats in brussels overrule parliament and overrule british courts. Any part of you thought rush to globalism wasnt good for uk . No. No part of you. You didnt hear ceo of utx just now ahead of you when he was asked about uk competitive visavis eu, made all the points about why uk was more competitive than european continent . Look, the uk is not going to disappear. You can remain strong longterm place for investment. In the short run, any Company Looking at making incremental investment right now is going to pause. At the very lease they are going to step back and think about is this the right thing to do. They dont know what they are investing in today. They dont know what decision they are making. We dont know what the uks relationship with the rest of europe is going to be. We dont know what our future policies will be. We dont know if uk is a single nation. Dont know if uk is going to be a single nation anymore and dont know what the implications are for the rest of europe. At the very least thats going to lead to Many Companies taking a pause. A really good wall of worry. Thank you. All right. Thank you. Thank you. Coming up, if you see people Walking Around aimlessly staring at their smartphone even more than they normally do, not to worry. They are probably just catching a pokemon.

I was im a recovering broker. Youre a financial analyst in this. Yes. Lets talk numbers. You know what im talking about, too. All of life is selling, as you know. In that job, even when youre trying to do good things, they dont want to do good things. They dont want to do the right thing. They are always selling. You have that spirit Glen Gary Ross closing all the time. Theres one specific moment in it where i have to sell myself to the office, and i get that i get that sort of boiler room glen gary moment. That trope in all the financial movies, sales movies where you just kind of rally the coffee is for closers. Thats not you as a normal person. Obviously. Your guy watches cnbc 24 hours a day. Yes. Do you ever as an actor . You have someone like your self doing it for you, probably, like the guy you play . I havent watched cable news regularly since i left the daily show. But you watched a lot of it there. I had my fill. I had cnbc going here and two cspans. I watch it now, and i have no outlet which to express you know, theres no joke pipeline for me.

Financial analysts putting people in some dont back stabbing. Some people are accountants, dentists nine hours a day. Thats a pretty good job. A glamorous job. Not a bad job. What i love about what these guys, our characters do in this show is that you read in the paper contract negotiations are stalled. Thats all you read. Talk about contract negotiations are stalled. This show unpacks that, all that stuff, what happens behind the scenes of that stuff. Its written by Football Players, you know. We have Football Players on our staff so its very accurate and you get to see what happens behind the scenes. Thats my favorite. Really that crazy . Really that crazy in real life . Yeah. This is what they are telling me. What is so compared to the first season, theres a different plot line this year, right . Yeah. It picks up sort of where we left off. Dwaynes character and mine have their own office, but dwayne decides to take down the biggest financial manager in miami, because hes got a grudge. Thats played by andy garcia. Great. Yeah. Plot lines about tumbling yields, your players saying what do i do. Tumbling yields were too controversial for us. Hbo was like, lets not no brexit exit. Lets dont touch it. A lot of these guys make a lot of money weve all heard. There are guys in real life trying to help their buddies not go the route of some of what weve read about where these guys dont have any money because they have bad investments. Are you a good guy or bad guy . Im a good guy. You dont go below bbb . No im not going below bbb. Were not talking about bras were talking about bonds. You like krcht and dcht better .

Im joe kernen with becky quick, michelle carusocabrera. Of 90 minutes away from the opening bell on wall street. The futures right now are up again after a very strong session on friday. Better than expected jobs report. Nice that good news was good news. Considering the fed is out of ammo, you better finally let the baton get passed through the underlying economy rather than thinking its always going to be about staying at 0. The best of both, staying at 0 and 280,000 jobs. Maybe it is goldilocks. Exactly. Lets get to stories investors will be talking about. Nikkei soaring in overnight trading up to close to 4 . This comes after japanese Prime Minister shinzo abes ruling party won in upper house yesterday. His wins likely will make it easier for abe to push through his economic agenda, that third arrow weve been waiting for. Again, you can see nikkei up by close to 4 . In american Politics News breaking just this morning that House Speaker paul ryan will give a speech at the Republican Convention next week. Politico is reporting ryan will write the speech himself. It will be 10 minutes long and it will focus on House Republican agenda and the need to unite around republican candidates. And in other political news, dropping out of the race as Prime Minister only leaves may in the running to succeed David Cameron. Will fred frost joining us. This coming as nigel saying its the only candidate you should be supporting because she supported brexit. Backing her and then a few hours later she dropped out as you just reported. She didnt have the support so pulled out sooner rather than later. The only candidate remaining, essentially wins the race without going to a vote for party members. Time not reported but much earlier taking over Prime Minister than Early September we expected likely very soon indeed. Markets have liked this news of the pound rallying to a session high. It was below 129 against the dollar earlier. It is now close to 130, moving around 1 against u. S. Dollar as the news broke. Markets like it, it means a quicker transition, quicker move back to certainty for clear leadership. Also because she was the more eu friendly of the candidates having backed to remain. Either way brexit means brexit, thats the conservative party confirmed to win leadership. Current Prime Minister David Cameron go to the queen and offer resignation and queen would invite the new leader to form a government. Guys. Thank you. Not going to be as good as margaret thatcher, is she . Probably not. Goes to show you that its a global phenomenon. You saw the interview she did. Leadsom. I have kids and more worried about britains future because i have kids and she doesnt have kids. Maybe neece and nephews. They released the transcript of it. She took issue. So things that you say in an interview, spontaneous interview where youre just trying to make one point, but that can ruin your its like the glass jaw thats happening here, which is one of the reasons i think trump has had 50, 60 things hes probably said and two or three stick. You dont know which ones, but it is with twitter and social media and Everything Else in the interview asked several times about having kids. Its amazing. Its not what you do anymore. You can say things and you have to hide out. Twitter prevents group think. Elite used to be the only place for a platform. Amplifies group think. People follow people. People only watch cnn or fox. People only follow conservatives or ive got a pretty select group of people im following. I dont see a lot of other people. I dont. I see something that ruins my morning, im never looking at that again. Lets get to farnborough. Virgin atlantic with a deal with airbus. Lets get to phil lebeau. Im going to bring in ceo of Virgin Atlantic. You have the big story, big story placed with airbus, 12 stretch versions, 1,000 flying potentially up to 400 people. How important is this deal in terms of driving down your cost and efficiencies . For us, its a perfect airplane from an efficiency perspective. We save about 30 of fuel versus 747s. Which is what they are remassing. Most of what they are remassing. Its a great airplane from a noise and nmptal perspective. 50 less noise and far less emissions. We think this is exactly the right airplane and we think our customers are going to absolutely love it. You think that timeframe . 2019 and 12th would be 2021. So over about a threeyear period well take all 12 of them. You noticed and we talked about this earlier, the growth in demand for Business Class travel transatlantic, the u. S. And europe. It has exploded in the last 10 years, the last 5 years. Any concerns were hitting a limit there . I never know when there is a limit. Always concerned about the marketplace. With a weak pound weve seen since brexit vote, its a little more expensive now for brits. Which brings up the question. Are you noticing more americans coming over . One of the things its really early to call at this point. We were pretty full for the summer already. But our goal will be to take people both directions. We think this is a great time for americans to visit united kingdom. Brings up brexit and impact of brexit. For an airline like yours, transatlanticwise, are you looking at this and saying i think that we can continue growing as we were or how do you look at it . Id say were in a Holding Pattern to use an airline term. We dont have any planned growth overall, although we are till grog a little in the transatlantics. Weve recently announced next year starting service from manchester uk to boston, San Francisco and new york. So three new services for us. We do still see this as an opportunity but i would say cautiously. Ceo Virgin Atlantic. We have to wrap this up because funny, theres a storm coming in. Thanks. Guys, back to you. Yeah.

Just 120 days until president ial election. Voter anger over a lot of things like jobs and economy helping fuel the rise of some of the nontraditional candidates like Bernie Sanders and donald trump who is set to announce his vp as soon as this week. For more on what caused this populous wave lets bring in jan funt, columnist with National Review. Great to see you. Thanks. Lets start this way. Solid number percentage that will never vote for Hillary Clinton and solid number that will never vote for donald trump. I think for hillary, i think its close to 40. Just before fbi report it was 42, trump was about 43. And after the fbi report. We dont have any polls. You think 45 is out of the question . Were dealing with the two most unpopular candidates in modern polling history. Lets add it up. Let say tied at 43. Two times 43, 86. This election is about 14 of the people . Believe it or not, theres a small sliver of people who like both of them. I think they have been in a cave the last month . What . Is trying to split up that 14 i think winner of electoral college. The election decided by two groups, people who stay home, independents who cant stand hillary or republicans who think donald trump isnt a real republican and people who hate the other candidate so much they will get out of bed. You saw the primary up, 60 for republicans, down 25 for democrats. What does that mean . You know, i dont think that means that much. Donald trump certainly brought in new voters. So i think people in ohio and pennsylvania and michigan are going to put those states in competition. Hillary was an old frontrunner. Bernie sanders did bring in new voters. I think its a whole new ball game for the fall. If you use brexit as an example. I was there for that. Very good for donald trump. Who stayed home . The young people, the people who were going to vote for status quo. Animated they thought it was over, looked at the polls. Close. We are seeing the biggest caveat in this race is the polls are increasingly wrong because you cant reach people with cell phones as easily and people lie to polsters. People also dont signal their true intentions. Do you think theres i took statistics and like all psychology i thought it was like a pseudoscience almost. Whats enough . Some of these, 2,000, 1500. Is 50,000 across the entire country per poll. Will that or will we not know until 200 Million People vote. The biggest thing not discussed is margin of error. Tied the more you do, the less the margin of error. Is there a number you could do it costs too much to do it. The costs become exponential. 1,000 to 1200 gives you the best value for your dollar. 3. 5 probably. The rules committee, rnc meeting this week. The wall street journal had this article that said there is a possibility they are close toblg moment where the rules committee could announce on day one of the convention theres going to be a vote to unbind the delegates. Well, there are a lot of delegates who say they are already unbound with the exception of 1976, which is ford reagan race, you really cant prevent a delegate from voting their conscious or abstaining. Based on their party rules they are not supposed to do that. First of all rnc rules Trump State Party rules and only two states have penalties at all for delegates voting against the person they are supposed to. What do you handicap the odds. Ening donald trump has an 80, wi 85 chance to be nominee. We have a week to go, he can make a mega gaffe. He can pick a strange Vice President ial candidate. Its 20 points down to hillary in women. Thats a gap we have never seen in politics. If after fbi report still ahead, if even after the fbi report he cant close in on hillary. Thats half a reflection of donald trump and half a reflection of the people who support hillary. And another reflection of how cynicle people are they expect this from Anyone Running for president. 40, 45 vote for hillary after what happened last week. Id say 38 1 2 even if she had been indicted would still be voting for her. Three out of ten democrats say she should have been indicted. They still vote for her. Donald trump said they would still vote for me if i shot someone. She did shoot someone. Through this whole election i said that. You have one person that says to people crazy stuff. Youve got another person with a 25year history with her and her husband of doing stuff that is so beyond the pail of anyone thats run for office. Yet were all inured to it. Both candidates have showed an inability to articulate reality. Lets leave it at that. Theres articulating and cgi. They are liars, both of them. One didnt enrich himself from state department influence. Well, ill tell you, the real thing we have to worry about is if we elect hillary. Shes not going to be allowed to have any classified info if shes president. The Clinton Foundation inquiry is still going on. Theres a danger if Hillary Clinton is elected president , we could have a constitutional crisis after a few months of her being in office. The Clinton Foundation not a few months. It takes 27 months to get the emails. Thats right. They have been deleted, too. They are gone. They recovered some of them. None of the good ones. John, based on what you said just talking about what happens at the rnc with donald trump, whats the safe choice for him to pick for Vice President ial candidate. Someone who doesnt create headlines, isnt new like sarah palin with lots of new stories swirling around. Somebody like newt gingrich, hes had everything written about him. Hes old enough so hes not going to want to be president in his own right like corker from tennessee. He can always ask in the end. General flynn would be a little risky because he would inject islamic jihadism right into this race, a lot of political correctness. He was fired by obama. Whats the downside. The problem pence is running for governor of indiana and reelection. Got to decide by friday. Better come quickly. Lloyd benson. Indiana doesnt have that law. Only a few states have that law that allow you to run for both offices. So the key is pick somebody that the reporters already know so they are not going to create a dan quayle phenomenon or sarah palin phenomenon, we dont know this person, lets find out whats bad about him. Hillary goes with tim kaine. She does horribly with modern. Probably tim kaine. Ohio. Republicans would gain that senate seat, which is difficult. So messed up. Theres always the chance she goes back to her original idea, a hispanic Julian Castro from texas, currently housing secretary. John, thank you. Thank you for reviewing everything on a national basis. Come to cleveland. It will be fun. Castro speeches in the original. When we come back, youve got to catch them all. Pokemon go craze might be getting some players in trouble but nintendo stock rallying on the phenomena. Nintendo shares up 10 . When we come back, earning season is here.

Louis, police say robbers used pokemon go to lure victims to a parking lot by putting a socalled beacon on a location to draw players to that spot police say around 2 00 in the morning. Four teens robbed the person at gunpoint who was playing the game. I dont understand what any of that means but i believe it. A beacon, looking for pokemon. I can set up a beacon . That i dont know. Big surprise for mr. Robot fans. Usa Network Releasing first 40 minutes of the shows Second Season three days before the official release. The show about a renegade computer hacker interrupted its Facebook Live session with a message from a hacker before unveiling the new episode. Usa today is owned by nbc universal. And earning season is beginning this week, as you may be aware. Its easy to figure it out. You do the quarterly you think quarters. June was the end of the last quarter. Here we are. Takes about a week to close your books and figure it out. Close your books. Close. Santelli joins us with why the earnings recession might be over. How long, four or five quarters . This would be the fifth if its negative. The one were reporting now. The one were reporting now. Year over year, fifth. The official forecast right out of consensus for 5. 6 decline s p earnings. The thing about that, the usual typical margin of outperformance, upside surprises run about 3 to 4 Percentage Points so essentially brings you within hailing distance of a flat performance. Key here preannouncement, number of companies learning of lower earnings and promising better, a much more benign preannouncement season. In fact, best one since early 2011. Alet of people think essentially expectations have gotten low enough. To me the question really is what does it mean for stocks considering s p 500, broad market has not really suffered on a net basis. Obviously on the verge of alltime highs here, not really suffered during this socalled earnings recession. One of the reason those yield stock utilities, telecon, everything that looks like a bond supporting this market. Yield sectors bigger than financial sect or right now. The question is do you ease evaluation concerns when you have a little bit of potential for Earnings Growth in the back half of the year. I think probably. By the way, we were more expensive than stated number at alltime highs, numbers going down significantly versus timts. Right now you might be in a better position if those earnings come through. The question to me, joe, do we get another sector rotation. Index level hang in there, utilities sell off and industrials, consumer diseasary stuff take up the lead. Weve watched for a long time. Weve been churning around two years. Now we know rates are going to stay low for an extended period. We think we know this. Multiples dont need to contract. Multiples dont contract on the fly. Were doing to talk to a technical analyst. Marcel is going to do this. Resistance is strong. If you get through, i think were on. Arent you starting to think about that . I think it would be perverse if he werent do click to a new high. I dont think its down more churning. For a little while. We had someone on earlier saying, you know, there are uncertainties in the world, a lot of uncertainty. I hadnt heard that. And theres risk factors in the Global Economy right now. Ive heard. For 25 years the story has been europe structurally broken but stocks are cheap. Still cheap. Europe might be fixing itself, depending what happens. Any century now. Lets break that tie. We just talked about fundamentals, talk about technicals, katie stockton, eigs chief technical strategist, bring up chart of s p 500 and see what joe is talking about churning around this 2100 level, now a little bit of a breakout. Do we believe it . Talk about it, on the verge of a new alltime high for s p 500. For me its very important not to see just a little inch above that but a confirmation of a breakout. That saved me at least in my market views, you know, to avoid false breakouts. Is there a number you associate with that with a convincing, confirmative. Consecutive fridays, two closes about that level. That would convince me weve broken out and you can arrive at upside targets. For the novice viewer why does friday matter so much more than monday through thursday. The weekly close is where the market settles. To me its where investors are comfortable closing out their week and sitting over the weekend so they can relax. What did you say significant . What is that number for significantly higher . 2400. What . 2400. It sounds crazy. Maybe thats what i mean. The width of the channel. Two fridays above 2135 we could see an upside. Thats the target. In the interim it makes sense to be more cautious because theres really nothing worse than a false breakout, right . So if we do fail here, we have to give the market a chance. Neutrogena is good for that. Does the summer throw anything off . Fridays are lightly traded. A lot of people out on vacation during those times. One way or the other . I dont put a lot of weight on volume to be honest. As long as you have a close an not just an intraday move there, then its real. Any other major averages that stand out to you as ways to. S p 500 doesnt end there, of course. The International Markets are in a worse position. Greater loss of momentum especially in europe as you can imagine. Thats something we need to keep in mind. Not like were free and clear once we clear 2135 for s p 500. Indeed even nasdaq composite still faces resistance from 2000. I havent checked, transports confirming all this. Transports have underperformed up until last week. Last week we finally saw more offensive positioning and that would be bullish if it persists. As it stands the leadership really has the more defensive utilities continue to do well . The trend is good there, as you can imagine. Will that be okay for overall s p . I think it will change if the breakout becomes more decisive. You follow commodities, too . I do. Is gold in an upturn now . It looks like it, scooped out and broken out above a couple tiers of resistance. Five years ago. Wild, arrive at a target of 1580. I know. I know. Fill out the paperwork. Fill out the paperwork. Comcast going up 67 today. In the interim looks like a pullback slightly. But not to 1210. I think more 1300. Oil stays between 35 id be patient there and let it settle in this mid40s range where there is some support. Loss of momentum has been somewhat greater than expected. Katie british pound stays above 130 . Gosh, yeah, i think the trend there persists . Goes down . Goes down. How far . Gosh, i dont know how far. 30. Seems a little extreme. Where does drachma go . I cant envision that. The drachma, italian lira. 14. Thanks for coming on. Thank you. Coming up, job growth bouncing back in the u. S.

Everything this year, Hewlett Packard enterprise will preview the machine and accelerate the future. See star trek beyond. Welcome back to squawk box, shares of hertz global increased. Increased according to an s. E. C. Filing. Wow. Doesnt look right. Theres something yeah. You put in data thats why we need Artificial Intelligence so even charts know what to give you additional info about. Whats happened. Lets talk about another story. Your boss and your bosss boss could be costing the American Economy 3 trillion a year. The number of managers add administrators has doubled in the United States just in the last few decades, much more than the growth of other positions. That boss surplus is the topic of a recent study in the Harvard Business review. Joining us right now coauthor of the study gary hamill, cofounder of Management Innovation Exchange and visiting professor at the London Business school. Professor, you are confirming what a lot of americans have thought for a lot of years. Too much top heaviness thats out there. What did you find in your study . Well, let me just start with data. What we know now in the u. S. Economy we have 24 Million People who are managers, supervisors or administrators. That doesnt count all the people working in i. T. You add to that an equivalent of 18 Million People complying, paper pushers. Put those numbers together, 40 Million People, about a third of the u. S. Workforce is engaged all day every day in bureaucratic work. Our Research Suggests half of that surplus requirements, we could cut the number of managers and administrators by half, cut this busywork by half. If we did that we would double productivity growth over the next decade. If you look at recent u. S. Productivity growth, abysmal, 1. 3 a year. If there was a way of repealing that bureaucratic tax over the next decade, double productivity growth, a chance of raising incomes and improving income across the u. S. Economy. Thats the core of the data. But then who would go to all the meetings and Brown Bag Lunch specials they have . Yeah, exactly. So much of that work just isnt adding any value. Weve been looking for about a decade at a group of what i would call post bureaucratic van guard organizations. These are Companies Like new corps, steel business, consistently the most Profitable Bank in europe and a bunch more. When lou at these companies what you see is that on average they are running with half the bureaucratic load of their peers. Half the administrators. Let me give you an example close to home. I was at a plant making jet engines, some of the most complicated things people make. In that plant they had 300 employees and a single supervisor. If you said to an average boss were geology to move 1 to 400 span of control they would think youre insane. The first challenge here theres several. The first chal elengechallenge, admit you can run Large Organizations with the question is how do you get there . This is something private equity guys have been doing for years, 3g, private investment firm, they have been good at stripping out beaurocracy. It comes at a heavy cost. Every time someone lays off workers like that, they are criticized. Youre losing jobs and good paying jobs. How do you actually get back, once you have a blow to beaurocracy, how do you get back to a position to streamline things. I would say a couple things. First, if you want to really tackle this problem we have to get angry. We have to be a lot less resigned and more indignant about what this is costing our economy. Gallop does a survey every couple of years when they look at how many employees around the world are Truly Engaged in their work. Last survey 13 of employees are Truly Engaged in their work. The number is higher for the United States, 30 , but nothing to be proud of. What that says, we have a lot of people every day coming to work, physically, obedient, diligent, smart, but they are not bringing their creativity, they are not bringing their passion, their initiative, they are leaving all those things at home. So when you go into these van guard organizations, you find they are bringing more gifts, substantial productivity, far more engaged and are in good jobs where they have a chance to bring all that capability to work. Professor, its michelle here. As youre talking, youre coming to us from london. Everything you said remind med of the european union. I think about the eu, so many leaders, so little leadership over there. What youre saying about companies, could you also say about governments an things Like European Union . Yeah, you know, i think what you see both in government and in business over the last few years, you see a tendency towards more centralization rather than less. The fact of the matter is people in power are very clever at getting more power, very good at constructing persuasive arguments. As that happens, our trust in large institutions goes down. People lose their share of voice, get disconnected from workplace or government. The consequences weve seen in brexit. This is not just a problem for the private sector, this is just as much a problem for the public sector. There are examples, there are alternatives out there. The problem is most leaders, most managers have never been inside of a truly lean organization. So what you see happening is a lot of organizations are getting lean operationally but they are getting fatter managerially. Theres simply no excuse for that. Gary, i want to thank you for your time. Very intriguing study. Preaching here to the choir, not here at cnbc. In 2014 going to spinoff its Equipment Rental business, hertz, which it did a couple of weeks ago. Hertz at that point hertz holding, inc. Under hri, we saw it on the chart at 11, recapitalized or whatever. Now the stock is up in the 40s now so its been totally different share price. Has somebody been buying it mistakenly because of these headlines . No, in it for a while and bought more but just you saw the chart looked like it went from 1140 because its a spin overon that business. Coming up jim cramer is back. Hes going to join us live from the New York Stock Exchange next. Well get a take on top stories. Suggests a positive open. Squawk box will be right back. Thats why iave the spark cash ca from capital one. With it, i earn unlimited 2 cash back on all of my purchasing. And that unlimited 2 cash back from spark means thousands of dollars each year going back into my business. Which adds fuel to myottom line. Whats in your wallet . Lets get down to the New York Stock Exchange where jim cramer joins us now. We dont always do it, jim. Youre a guy that knows about fundamentals. You Pay Attention to technicaltype stuff. Here we are on the cusp. Do we go or hit here and then sort of fail again . We have been here a few times. One of these days we are going through here. I love the interview. I love what you said that if we do break out we are off to the races. I believe that. If we get oil going back up, we get the dollar stabilizing here, dont ask for more than that and get anything decrept in terms of the banks, anything, because thats later this week it will happen. It is possible you dont get anything decent from the banks and oil takes out 45. Once again as your technician said, no. But it sure feels different. Even though it was lighter volume as you guys pointed out on friday. It was a lot of stocks. Not just j j, 3m and honeywell anymore. There is a lot of worry. There always is. When you hear there is a lot of uncertainty its like when is there not . Really . Never there is always. We have all wanted the transports to break out. The rails break out. But we need the airlines to break out. Then its like, no, the problem is the semiconductors havent. No. We have a lot going right. We need oil to go back up. I love the fact that so many people got short off brexit. Only will ford frost understood it and it wasnt so bad. I dont know which markets to necessarily hope for. I dont know whats in synch anymore. I love that if rates are at zero bonds are at new highs, stocks are at new highs that somethings wrong. I always thought Financial Assets move in try getting stocks at new highs when bonds are at lows. I have been saying it on mad money and it doesnt resonate with people who know this is the end of the world. In italy they were like, hey, dont worry. I dont know. How are your atms . They are not as negative there as we are about them. So great. Dont go there too often or you wont come back. They love us. Geez, i dont know. They love us more than we love us. North, south, east and west. The worst part of italy is great. Exactly. We live like dogs here. We do. We dont live hilike its better. We do okay. Its nice. We work to live, they live to work . Just heard a story about how 30 of us are showing up engaged for work anyway. Every day, ready to play. When we come back, a check on the markets ahead of the opening bell. Plus, get ready bargain hunters, walmart is stepping up the attack on amazon prime day with more deals. Well tell you how next. First a quick programming note. Dont miss microsoft Ceo Satya Nadella live at 10 30 eastern time. Tomorrow is amazons prime day. Walmart isnt sitting idle. The retail giant eliminating the 50 spending limit for Free Shipping for five days to battle against amazons big shopping event. A scary moment for aerosmith guitarist joe perry. He collapsed during a concert last night in coney islands with Hollywood Vampires in new york. He stumbled off stage. Video shows perry sitting down on the front of the drum platform, standing up and stumbling off stage. Right behind a stack of speakers. The band posted on facebook that joe perry is stable and resting. Hes 65 years old. I think it was a Serious Health issue. I dont know if its completely what it is. Listed as critical overnight. In the old days, you know, sitting there, stumbling off the back of the stage. Would have thought something else. Or wouldnt have meant anything. With the old aerosmith or anything. It wasnt a real concert unless someone was stumbling around somewhere. Johnny depp is in the band and playings guitar. And alice cooper. Youre so no, im not. You dont know about the Hollywood Vampires . Outs big with the johnny depp news. They have been touring around the area. I go to the opera. Bye, everybody. Time for squawk boon the stre. The opera.
