it is 5:00 a.m. here at cnbc global headquarters. i'm frank holland and here is your "five@5." off their highs. stocks are struggling to find footing as the nasdaq snaps the win streak of the year. the key event today that could dictate the trading ahead. the part of the intraswing for trading is nvidia wiping out of play market value ahead of the important session for what is now the u.s.'s third most valuable stock. and out for days. a massive hack attack hits car

the dealerships across the country with no resolution in sight. and federal regulators approve a new treatment and the billionaires backing president biden as his funding falls short of donald trump. it's friday, june 21st, 2024. you're watching "worldwide exchange" right here on cnbc. ♪ good morning. happy friday. welcome to "worldwide exchange." thank you for being with us. let's get you ready for the trading day head. it could be a big one. we kickoff with the stock futures after a really mixed session for stocks yesterday that saw the s&p and nasdaq finish lower despite hitting all-time intraday highs in the session. it looks like the dow would open 30 points lower. the nasdaq also down as well. for the nasdaq, it is coming off

the first down day after seven. it is still up for the week. up fractionally for the week. it is still positive for the week. the key to the market action is the wild ride for nvidia and what was briefly the most valuable publicly traded company here in the u.s. take a look at this chart. this is fascinating. it is down 2.5% after historic swing yesterday. from here to here. the nasdaq and s&p hit intraday highs. the nasdaq and the weight of this move really pulling down both markets. as i pointed out here, it was up yesterday before ending the day down 3.5% wiping out a record $246 billion in market value in the process. we will have much, much more coming up later in the hour. we'll talk a lot about it. in the meantime, we will

take a look at the nasdaq 100 movers. nasdaq down 2.5%. there are some stocks in the green this morning. gilead sciences is up this morning. two other semiconductor names, microchip tech and on semiconductor. we will talk about that chip space in a bit. we are looking at the bond market today. look at the benchmark. 4.23. falling a few basis points from the levels we saw yesterday. not a lot of movement in the bond market in recent days. we are looking at oil. it is down a bit this morning. wti down .3%. despite the ia report showing the crude inventory with a bigger drawdown than expected. that is the money set up. let's get a look at the

corporate stories with silvana henao. silvana, good morning. happy friday. hey, frank. happy friday. cdk says car dealerships across the u.s. will likely be out of service for days. this is following a second major cyber attack reportedly telling its customers there is no estimated timeframe for resolution. thousands of car dealerships rely on cdk software to run the day-to-day operations. speaking on "last call" last night, tom maoli says the knock-off effects from the outage cannot be understated. >> billions of dollars and trillions that are tied up and frozen. it will start affecting manufa manufacturers. that's the big downthefall here. if you can the not pay off the cars on the floor plan, you have

an issue. separately, lendingtree is having an issue with snowflake trying to determine the nature of the data leak, but says so far it has not identified any vulnerability or miss configuration. and tom barkin joining the wait and see on inflation and rate cuts. he said he need to see more conviction before moving on policy. now barkin is a voting member of the fmoc and says policy as it stands is currently well positioned. boeing is nearing a deal to buy back spirit aerosystems to shore up the supply chain. according to reuters, the talks which have been in the works since january, have been hung up on the spirit work with airbus,

but progress has been made to ease concerns in recent days. boeing spun off spirit in 2005, frank. >> silvana, thank you very much. we will see you later in the show. we turn back to the markets. volatility could be the name of the game today with the $5.5 million of options set to come to trade today. goldman sachs says the rebalance along with the next friday russell reshuffle could lead to explosive trading and take advantage of excess opportunities. joining me now is degas wright. good morning, degas. >> good morning, frank. great to be on with you. >> a big figure. $5.5 trillion in options expirations. also, one-third of nvidia options expire today. is this an opportunity or is

this a moment for concern or maybe something else? >> we see this as a moment of opportunity because as we see with the atlanta fed sticky cpi at 4.3. we are seeing that it is above target and that this gives us an opportunity because there will be some easing in 2025. this is opportunity as we look at the overall markets. as we do our research around the group analysis that looks at expectations and valuations and profitability, we're seeing opportunities in reits, finance and also industrial sectors. >> i want to get to your picks in just a minute. i want to focus on something you are focused on. economic reports out today. one is the leading indicator report today. one is flash pmi. estimates for both reports show a slowdown. pmi reports from europe show a slowdown there. what does that mean for

investors? what does that mean for the fed? what does that mean for just global investing? a lot of possibilities of a global slowdown starting to build. >> exactly. what this indicates is soft economic conditions going forward. this is going to make it a positive setup in 2025 for the federal reserve to start easing rates which is positive for markets. this is the time to look at your portfolio and see where are the opportunities. >> all right. looking for opportunities. you are looking at two opportunities in dividend plays. you mentioned them at the top. reit at 5.3%. the other one is a private credit lending -- a little complicated. i don't want to get in the weeds. dividend of 9.8%. i have been asking our guests this. are you worried about the price action when you invest in these

stocks? is it simply about the dividend with the market so stretched? >> we are looking at dividends, but we are looking at the actual business model. for instance, nnn has a unique business model. they are a net reit and focus on retail. just like 7/eleven and l.a. fitness and taco bell restaurants. they have a 94% occupancy rate. this is very positive for them. also, that's the type of business we're looking at. you mentioned blackstone. blackstone is benefitting on the rate they focus on. with the 9.8% rate of return for dividends, we are looking at both the business model and dividends. >> it is stable dividends. degas wright, great to see you.

>> thank you. >> for more on what is driving the markets, head to cnbc pro. we have more to come on "worldwide exchange," including the one word investors need to know today and why nvidia's wild ride could be just as volatile and yesterday. and president biden still trails president trump in support. and it sis a very busy sure when "worldwide exchange" returns. stay with us. as an independent financial advisor, i stand by these promises. as a fiduciary, i promise to be the financial steward that you and your family need. i promise to put your long-term financial well-being

welcome back to "worldwide exchange." look at u.s. futures. the dow would open up 40 points lower. let's see how europe is shaping up after disappointing pmi reports. we have silvia amaro with more on the early action. silvia, good to see you. >> good morning, frank. indeed, we are basically on track to see the stoxx 600 ending the week up by about 1.5%. however, looking at today's equity session, there's the fair amount of red across the board. looking at the cac 40 and the dax in the eurozone, they are down .50%. over here in the uk, we have the ftse 100 down by about .40% after the bank of england

yesterday decided to keep rates on hold. however, investors are increasing their bets that we are going to see a cut in august. let me take you to the corporate stories this morning. one announcement from britvic. they stated the board rejected two bids from carlsberg at 12.50 per share. britvic said the number under values the company. it adds it will consider any further proposal on its merit. carlsberg is considering its position. we have carlsberg shares down 8%. britvic rallying up 10%. all in all, frank, this corporate story highlights the interest that we are seeing recently when it comes to some of the uk names. >> silvia amaro live in the

london newsroom. thank you. we turn attention back to the united states and the cracks in the commercial real estate space. here in the new york city area, buildings have been sold at discounts. some at 70% lower than the original price. the commercial real estate data is predicting that this year and next year are the two worst years on record for office buildings with the floor space tenants are giving back or vacating. a major factor is elevated rates. some are holding off renegotiating or not able to afford mortgages if there are no tenants to pay the rent. let's bring in tour guest. >> good morning. >> i have to warn the audience. you come with a rosy picture with the real estate market when we get so much data that says quite the contrary.

i'll go to the commercial leasing down 25% compared to pre-pandemic. you had questions from reporting, but does that jive with what you are seeing? q1 ended a couple of weeks ago. now we're in q2. >> great to be with you. let's talk about the definition of rosy. it is all relative to the amount of negative headlines and generalization we observe in the marketplace. there is office space and everything else. apartment and self storage and hospitality and retail, of course, and many sub sectors that are doing much better than office buildings. office buildings have been hit by this side of the equation. we know this by the hybrid work space and pullback in tenant demand. at the same time interest rates doubled from where loans are maturing where they have been. that is a compounding effect. offices are in a different

category. commercial real estate has a whole has not been overbuild. there are pockets of overbuilding. the fundamentals with the economy doing well, have held up well, across non-office products. let's look at non-office. >> before we get there. you admit the steep discounts. >> no question. they have to. the reason for that is those are older and obsolete assets that are difficult to use and tenant. that is not surprising to see the 60% to 70% decline from the peak or the previous sale. even within office, that constitutes a fraction of overall inventory of office space. suburban office is better than your burban. >> that's a fair point. i want to go to another point.

large commercial real estate cut space by 11.5% in q1. does that go along with what you are seeing? people are re-signing, but less space? >> no question. more efficiency and reconfiguration of traditional offices to more team wwork and reduced footprint. >> you want to straighten this out. you want to straighten this out. what is going with commercial real estate? how good or bad is it or is there risk or contagion that may impact impact banks or the economy? >> the acknowlnswer on the cont if you have an asset that sells and investor buys it and release it is at lower rent. there is an undermining of rents when assets are discounted at steep levels come back into the

market. however, office space constitutes less than 4% of bank loans. that's why we have to zoom out and look at the whole dry. what we're seeing, as i mentioned last couple of times i've been on the program, time is bringing prices down. on average, we have seen 20% to 25% price adjustments across all real estate sectors and that is bringing buyers back. record capital on the sideline is aggressively pursuing these because they have been re-priced. that is before the fed helps by lowering interest rates. >> hessam, i love having you. great tie. great color choice. >> i don't know how that happened. >> great to see you. coming up on "worldwide exchange," a storied luxury carmaker bets pick on the ev future and robert frank has the inside look. robert, good morning. >> frank, this is the house that enzo built. the house where he first started

robert, good morning. >> good morning, frank. this building is where it all started 80 yearsing ago. enzo ferrari built this brand. we will take you into the future of ferrari. this building is the first all electric ferrari. that will not be released until the end of next year. they will build hybrid cars. this will allow ferrari to build more cars. they produce 14,000 cars last year. the wait time for a ferrari support to three years. buyers and dealers hope this could expand supply. ferrari will remain a hard-to-get luxury product. >> luxury company is a company that is using the technology and innovation and story telling and everything with the ultimate

goal to feed that emotional side that we all have. >> ferrari certainly trading like luxury stock. better than any other luxury stock. it now sells at a pe of more than 50 times forward earnings. it makes a profit of over $120,000 per car. frank, you have to sell 16 bmws or 27 teslas to get the dollar profit of one ferrari. that is why that stock is up 27% this year. frank, what is amazing, they make 14,000 cars. the market cap for ferrari is 1.5 times that of ford or gm. they, of course, make millions of cars per year. >> interesting stuff there. we're always talking about the consumer and europe and u.s. being stressed. is ferrari still seeing a strong demand from the wealthy

consumer? >> they are. the average sale the price of a ferrari is $380,000. those folks are the most immune to any kind of inflation trouble or economic slowdown. they say particularly in the u.s., which is the biggest market with one-third of sales, remain strong. the ceo told me yesterday, they see zero impact so far in the economy and geopolitically. >> we are spending a lot of time talking about ferrari. i'm hurt. we talk frank and frank and you go to italy and don't take me. we have bugatti coming out with a $4 million car. talk about that for a second. >> what is interesting aside from the price which is unbelievable, $4 million, bugatti is now owned by an electric car company. it was spun off from vw.

it was react -acquired. they are going even more primal with a 16 scylinder engine. the horsepower of the bugatti will be over 18 horsepower and the top speed over 260 miles an hour. this will be a rocket. i think a lot of people will like it because of that engine. just like we are seeing with the rest of the auto market, people don't want to go all-in on ev. they love the giant engines with the roar and sound and feeling you're in a super car. >> beautiful car. when you go that story, you're taking me, right? don't answer, robert. we'll have much more with your interview with the ceo coming up later in the day. i hope you get into one of the

trick of events to inject volatility in the markets. the stumble coming from the most talked about stock, nvidia, wiping out of play $246 billion in market value. the major cyber attack crippling business for thousands of auto dealers across the u.s. with stocks getting caught in the fallout. it's friday, june 21st, 2024. you are watching "worldwide exchange" here on cnbc. ♪ welcome back to "worldwide exc exchange." i'm frank holland. happy friday. we pick up the check of the u.s. stock futures after the mixed session yesterday. red across the board. the dow would open up 25 points

low lower. similar story for the nasdaq. speaking of the nasdaq. coming off the first down session after seven. despite that big decline, it is still up for the week fra fractionally. the big part of the market action for that wild ride is nvidia. the stock lower again this morning. shares down 2% after the historic swing yesterday. take a look at this chart. it traded up about 4%. here it was in the beginning of the day before ending the day down 3.5%. a huge decline throughout the day. wiping out a record $246 billion in market value in the process. it also brought the s&p and nasdaq lower on the day despite both hitting intraday highs. we are kchecking the bond market today. take a look at the benchmark 4.23. pretty much moving sideways in

recent days. that's the money set up. we turn back to the stock of the week, maybe of the year, nvidia. once at the center of the market today. bob pisani explains why. >> the s&p is having the quarterly re-balance today. the big moves up in nvidia this quarter is causing notable movement. the technology spdr etf has $72 billion under management. it tracks the s&p technology index. it, too, along with the other sectors are re-balancing today. the relentless rise of nvidia is up 44% this quarter and shifting the weighting. nvidia will go from roughly 6% weighting in the etf to a roughly 21% weighting. apple is doing the opposite. it is going from repubroughly 2

partly sunny 21% waiting. what this means is the fund is selling $11 billion of apple and buying roughly $10 billion of nvidia all around the close today. this is all because of federal rules, believe it or not, put in place in the 1930s. the reason these rules were put in place was to avoid having too much concentration of any one stock in an investment fund like a mutual fund or etf. the index like the s&p has no limits of how big a stock can get in the index. an investment fund like an etf does have limits. under the federal rules, no stock can be more than 25% of the exposure. the combined weight of all stocks bigger than 5% can't exceed 50% of the fund's holdings. right now, the combined weight of apple, nvidia and microsoft in the tech index is 64%. the etf has to adjust its

weighting. that's what it is doing. microsoft will retain the top position and apple and nvidia a distant third. here is a good example of how concentration can affect investment. back to you. >> thank you to bob pisani. here with me is james cakmak. good to see you. >> good morning, frank. >> bob laid it out for us. nvidia is weighting in the elx is going up over 20%. is that priced into the stock already and what do you make of the market action with nvidia we saw yesterday? >> sure. we do think it is largely priced in. at this point, we are left with 10% of next year. we capture a lot of the fiscal gains. that the point, as the stock has been running, we have been

syst sy systematically trimming it. i think the nvidia story continues to remain strong. you still have to stay vigilant with the rise, the meteoric rise. >> it is a meteoric rise. it is witching day. options are set to expire today. for you, the second biggest holding. how do you view a day like this and volatility? >> we have been increasing our hedges going into today ahead of the consumer report on tuesday. you know -- and trimming positions where we can. i think position sizing is important. a company like apple, that was

about a week ago one of our biggest weights. we exited that since given the fact that also we were at our next year's price target. a lot of that value has been captured. we are looking into other areas of the market in order to deliver the upside into the second half of the year. >> for people listening, you expect apple to see a downturn with the lower weight in the xlk. you mentioned you are trimming positions. are you putting that money to work in other areas in tech? if so, where? >> yeah, software. we talked about this a few weeks ago. we think with the economy slowing down, you have to find predictable revenue treastreams. we added in service now and one we made a good gain on, but had since sold it to lean heavier into tech and semiconductors

rather. now we're coming back into the software space. p palantir is another one. we are still keeping our semi exposure. >> brad was out a couple of days ago and he is hunting for opportunities. are you picking for opportunities? >> i think, overall, it will out perform relative to the other ind indices. at the end of the day, we are still bouttom-up investors. >> james cakmak, thank you. we have a news alert on the 2024 white house race. new numbers out for the biden and trump campaigns. biden's team and the committee raising a combined $85 million last month according to data provided to cnbc by the biden camp. that is the second best funding

point where leadership is inn flekt inflecting. >> your wex word of the day is inflection. we are at an inflexion point when it comes to the election. we were talking about the biden campaign raising money. ned was out with research and saying the meaning theful gain for the s&p is 5%. do we have more upside? is this a different situation with a.i. and other things going on in the world? >> you know what is interesting? that and nvidia are in the same camp where they pulled a lot of things forward. this is a very forward and well informed market. we process information today faster than we have in the past.

knows that ned davis statistic, i think that is already in the market. nvidia pulled forward the stock split. that's in the price. i don't think we get that bump the same whay we did in the pas. >> ned davis raising the price target. a flurry of price target increases in recent days. we get pmi later today. services and manufacturing. the estimate shows contraction. is that meaningful? the markets reacted. could we see a similar set up with the flash pmi? >> the point on that is the word you used. flash pmi. that is short-term. it will revised ten days from now. unless it is something extreme, i don't think we blink an eye. if it is remotely in line, the market yawns and moves and waits for the real number in ten days. >> everybody talks about nvidia.

the comparison -- >> so boring. >> if nvidia is the new cisco -- have you heard that? >> yeah. there was a great article in "the new york times" yesterday. i'll jump ahead where they were comparing cisco and nvidia. they said the last time a computing infrastructure stock reached the largest position in the market, it was in march 2000. it was cisco. it did not bode well afterwards. maturity kicks in. what goes around comes around. one of my picks for the day is cisco. what you have here is cisco trading at a multiple of 12.5 times earnings. it is like a 60% discount to the tech sector. you cannot have an a.i. boom without network improvements. they are coming off this

inve inventory correction. i want to be ahead of that. it will not be whatever nvidia has been. it will not be a ten bagger again. it will be 10% or 15% return. >> i know you are a dividend investor, too. given over 3% is attractive. quickly on this one, jenny, you gave us another pick in the transport space. gxo. why are you bullish on gxo? >> you know how we were chatting the other day do we wait for the market to correct? you always put money to work. this is at a 52-week low. it doesn't matter. it is trading at 15.6 times earnings. it has 8% earnings growth this year. why is it down so much? i'm not really sure. it was spun off from xpo. it is the logistics outsourcing.

we know spinoffs don't get a lot of love. they had the first quarter earnings report. it is a fabulous company. when you have mid teens earnings growth, this doesn't make sense. >> we have to say good-bye. that will do it for us on "worldwide exchange." coming up we have "squawk box." have a great day. good morning. shares of sarepta are soaring after the company's gene therapy to treat a deadly muscle disease was granted approval. campaign financial disclosures were released revealing one disclosed from a reclusive billionaire and it was to former president trump. auto dealerships across north america could be facing days of outages after a key software provider suffered a cyber attack. it's friday, june 21st, 2024.
