5:02 am
the s&p's 24% gain and the m meteoric rise for the nasdaq. check out the yields. a bit higher for most of december. the benchmark ten-year yield at 4.03. and now going to oil. wti is up 2.25%. similar for brent crude. let's see how europe is doing with joumanna bercetche in the london newsroom. >> good morning, frank. happy new year. european markets are starting off in the green on this first trading day of the year after a stellar 2023.
5:03 am

5:05 am
let's talk more with joanna gallegos. >> good morning. >> i want to start off with what you are looking at with the strong year in the markets. you actually say that u.s. treasuries are the place you want to be, specifically short-term treasuries. the one-month yield is still above 5%. is that the short-term treasury you are talking about? >> we think it is great for cash management and liquidity needs. given where we are at the end of the fed rate hiking cycle and potential rate cuts this year, we feel you should look at risk assets as well. in the shorter side of treasuries, you want to manage your cash there. if you want to take a little bit more duration exposure and think about additional return in treasuries, we recommend around the 3% or 5% or 7% year space.
5:06 am
>> i know you are bullish with the fixed forincome forecasts. the best total return in 2023 out of the bond landscape according to your data. tracking the first 11 months of 2 2022. how much of this attractiveness is based on fed rate cuts? >> i think what you want to remember is that we also had a total regime change in interest rates in the last year. because interest rates are higher, no matter the outcome of downturns in the market or rate cuts, increased coupon levels will support any other volatility. you can't deny that 2023 was a banner year for high-yield assets and corporate debt in general. we love to call attention to the
5:07 am
ccc category. it returned over 20% in 2023. you know, as people are starting to put on risk and thinking about equity, we want them to stop off and think about the opportunities in corporate debt. they they come with a lot less volatility. fixed income is back to levels that it hasn't been since the great financial crisis. these are more normal interest levels. the economy is resilient and consumers have weathered the storm well. >> joanna gallegos, thank you. >> thank you. turning attention to a developing story. at least 48 people were killed in the series of earthquakes in japan on new year's day. rescue teams are struggling to reach survivors in areas where building collapsed. the quake hit a port city 140

5:15 am
going up from $1,000 to $1,700 a container. we were over $10,000 per container two years ago. we talking a dramatic increase, but it is nothing compared during the covid highs. >> got it. there was talk about supply shortages in europe and maybe shelves empty and things taking longer to get. there you talked about the u.s. supply chains. whether it is in europe, asia, america, are you expecting we will see shortages of things and empty shelves? what we saw during the pandemic? >> not here in the united states. the u.s. doesn't have significant dependability on the suez. most of the trade goes from china to the united states or from asia to the west coast.
5:16 am
really, when we look at these impacts, it is mostly focused on europe. >> are there any long-term implications? we have seen the biden administration try to build a coalition to address the tension in the red sea and conflicts. are there long-term implications? >> europe has to step up and take ownership. it impacts them far greater than the united states. long term, this promotes a trend since covid which is more domestic on-shoring manufacturing. companies moving the supply chains back to the americas and it promotes production in places like mexico and colombia. supply chain professionals don't want to deal with geopolitical risk and potential disruption that are well outside their control. >> craig fuller, thank you very much for your time. >> thanks, frank. >> the red sea disruption is one of several flash points that
5:17 am
could impact global mashlths t markets this year. the israel-hamas war is even tear entering a longer phase. and tensions with china could ratchet up with the elections looming in the next few weeks. and 2024 is an election super sabdullas cycle year. let's discuss with stephen, our next guest. >> good to be here. >> we laid out a number of things going on globally. which is the number one thing investors should be paying attention to? >> the tension in the red sea which could spread to the indian ocean is the mostpotential market moving aside from the comments from yourprevious guest. you see trade patterns and a
5:18 am
number of ships s are hesitatin going into the red sea and considering going around the horn of africa. they have built a coalition to protect ships, but the shipping companies are not purchase about i it. iran has brought another war ship into the red sea. there is a possibility of strikes from the houthi toward shipping and from the u.s.-led coalition which was bolstered by britain over the weekend on the targets. >> you mentioned the most meaningful for investors. give us a sense if your portfolio could be hurt by the tensions or is there an area to invest in an escalation of a military presence in the area? >> correct. certainly we have seen between ukraine and israel-hamas war and
5:19 am
now tensions in the red sea and movement in the defense stocks which i could discuss. the immediate effect today is with natural gas and oil prices. they were on a downtrend. they popped up. there is a cold snap in europe which is moving natural gas prices. as far as the more secular investment for investors to consider, since spring of 2022, since the initial invasion of russia of ukraine, a dramatic move of stocks. that's certainly an actionable way. >> one area to look at with the product and market global index. one other thing i want to talk about is japan. a serious and deadly earthquake there. before this, we are looking at
5:20 am
the markets and possibly japan reaching all-time highs? >> i was lucky to be with julianna in london a few months ago. i said we will have all-time highs, meaning surpassing the '89 bubble top. despite the tsunami and the runway a few hours ago, there's a number of initiatives long term with corporate governance and shorter term with the liberalization of individual savings accounts that is going to have a strong positive influence on the market. as this happens, a lot of foreign investors will emulate warren buffett who has been increasing stake in the japanese trading companies. japan is one of the few markets

5:26 am
retailer at an attractive valuation for that name for quite some time. >> one of the other picks is o'reilly auto. you are talking about interest rates lower giving a boost to retail. o'reilly is a play on higher interest rates because the interest rates to buy a new car is so high. as interest rates go down, why is that an upswing for o'reilly? >> top picks are o'reilly and ulta and dick's. we like o'reilly. we did elevate it to our best of breed bison pick. it creates a long-term winner with market share with true mo moves. it is an exception because. business model.
5:27 am
the moat they have around the franchise with distribution and long-term winner at the valuation which is attractive. that is because of the 20% margin they generate which leads to strong free cash flow. we put it on dcf and it looks attractive. >> ulta and o'reilly and dick's sporting goods. michael, thank you. >> thank you. time for the latest headlines with frances rivera in new york. >> good morning, frank. good morning. we start with breaking news from tokyo. a plane burst into flames on the runway of the biggest airport. nhk tv, the public broadcasting company, reports it may have hit another aircraft after landing. it is believed 400 people escaped safely. nbc news has not confirmed the

5:34 am
$73.20 a barrel. similar for brent crude at $7$7 $78.82 a barrel. we turn to a developing story. 48 people were killed in a series of powerful earthquakes in japan on new year's day. rescue teams are struggling to reach survivors in areas where buildings collapsed and power cut. the 7.6 magnitude quake hit 45 miles from tokyo. the quake triggered tsunami warnings. this morning, after shocks with the upper 5.0 quake south of the epicenter. several flights have been canceled and toshiba said it stopped semi conductor productin to check for damage.

5:36 am
irre irreplaceable portfolio. they are just a fantastic company in a fantastic position beyond rates falling and helping them out. >> that is a company where pretty much everybody is a customer. give us a sense. when it comes to the story of reits, how much is the price action of the reits and the dividends? a lot of the reits pay substantial dividends. >> 100% total return vehicle. they should get a price lift like we saw in december. for me, it is the growth opportunity. this is not a stagnant portfolio. this is a very active company. they are targeting 20 warehouses into data centers. that is 15% to 20% more profitable. they see the growth opportunities and clean energy.
5:37 am
they are one of the leading largest solar producers because they are already working on making the warehouses green and they are helping customers that have to navigate a very complex regulatory environment by looking into clean energy and understanding what their carbon footprint is. that is key in california. they have to be able to really have a handle on the carbon footprint for customers. and then the mobility networks. >> vicki, you are hitting on the other question i'm talking about. a.i. i cover the transport space. the transport ceos believe the a.i. will help hold less inventory and put that inventory in more strategic places. with the reits, is a.i. a tailwind or headwind to reduce inventory? >> i see it as a tailwind for the company because they are data centric. where they hold the key ports and logistics and you cannot replace location, location,
5:38 am
location. we see more online versus brick and mortar. so much is coming from online retailing which is expected to continue to grow. you will have continued warehousing needs and we want just in time inventory, but everybody saw during the pandemic, supplies on hand. i see a.i. as a net beneficial for them beyond the data center opportunity. they use a.i. to make sure they need to develop and how they write the leases and interact with customers. they are an a.i.-driven company. >> your other pick is welltower. another reit, but in the healthcare space. are you bullish on health care? do you see growth and health care as a tailwind? >> i'm bullish on the baby
5:39 am
boomers. we have the baby boomers retiring. 65 plus is one of the fastest growing age populations. i think so many baby boomers went through difficult transitions with their parents and they are proactive. i want to downsize. i don't want the yard maintenance. welltour is continuing to grow. it is a constrained growth rate considering the growth of the population. you have senior building and they run the portfolio well. i think we will continue to see the population grow. it is a little bit of as the aging population grows, w welltower is picking up on the boomer play. >> invest in baby boomers. vi vicki, great to see you. >> happy new year. coming up, bob pisanis gives us a history lesson of the stock market pop for the months ahead.

5:50 am
it happens often. since 1928, the s&p up 20% or more 36% of the time. what happens after the 20% gain? the stock market was up 22 of the 34 years following the 20% gain. that is 65% of the time. that is a pretty good average. here is another question. what happens in january after a 20% gain? januarys are less interesting in years following a 20% up year. it is really a coin flip. januarys are up half of the time. here is another question. could the s&p gain 20% again in 2024? how often does the s&p see back-to-back gains of 20%? the answer is pretty rarely. since 1928, the s&p has seen back-to-back gains of 20% just nine times. that's about 10% in the last 95 years. the last time it happened was
5:51 am
1998 and 1999. what would it take to have two back-to-back up 20% years? nicholas at data trek studies the markets and said it would require essentially everything going right. what does that mean? it means the u.s. and global economy can't stumble at all nor can corporate earnings. we expect an 11% gain in earnings next year. interest rates have to continue to decline. artificial intelligence, of course, which is a big player this year, has to prove its worth and drive investor confidence. that's a tall order. people like nicholas know it. he says all of it is possible, but not the base case. back to you, frank. >> joining me now is delano saporo. >> happy new year, frank. >> we have great data from bob. there's a 10% chance of another
5:52 am
20% increase in the markets this year. slim chances there. give us a sense of how you start this year. >> i think looking at the risk factors will follow us into the year from last year. bob was mentioning interest rates. the uncertainty of the fed policy is another thing to look at. inflation is an area where i think from the economic standpoint you want to see the trend continue especially from the consumer standpoint. the global economic slowdown which i think is baked in. we expect to have a slowdown in the middle tor the beginning of the year. those are the factors i looked at here and it begs the question of how companies will do and we will see a positive return on the year. >> that is the full-year outlook. i want to focus on today. give us your "wex" word of the
5:53 am
day. >> today, we trade with the futures looking there at. it is not an exciting day today. i think traders will be on the sideline and have a flat day. for january and the rest of the year, i think we will see some of the magnificent seven that we have seen push the market forward take a bit of a breather and broaden out of the rest of the market pushing us forward. >> what is your wex word of the day? >> the wex word is broadening. i do think we have more companies and industries join the rally. i do think we see a positive return not in the tune of 20% gain from 2023, but we see a positive return in 2024. especially when you look at the lower expectations with the slowdown. companies are able to lower expectations and exceed with the earning in february and march. >> on that theme of broadening
5:54 am
out, i want to talk about something that crossed the wires. barclays downgrading apple. what is your view on the magnificent seven trade? barclays downgrading apple. >> i think the magnificent seven drove the rally in 2023. you see they are trading at fair value. you see some investors take chips off the table. some investors take profits. that's a good time. you saw a little bit of that happening toward the end of 2023. you will see that more in 2024 for the magnificent seven. i do still think they will end positively pushing out the market forward. i think profits can be taken here especially with those magnificent seven since the end of october with the large c comeback rally.
5:55 am
