good morning. i'm matt miller. sacrlet: i'm scarlet fu. matt: we have commodities challenge. it might not be good. we could see some big drops. let's get over to vonnie quinn at the breaking news desk. >> let's wait and see if there are any adjustments that need to be made. the analysts were looking for $1.11. the second quarter, upstream volumes increase. that is an increase there. refining results should benefit. we want to have a look and see whether refining margins can make up for lower crude oil prices in the case of exxon.

second-quarter revenue, $74.1 billion. that is the number that we were looking for for revenue. once again, second-quarter earnings per share one dollar. $74.1 billion, second-quarter revenue. scarlet: thank you so much for that first read on exxon mobil results. we have alix steel. this is our moment. she is busy looking through all the numbers. this earnings per-share number. matt: versus almost three dollars last year. it is an amazing drop. alix: we do want to hear where the miss actually happened. the common theme for earnings has been production and job cuts. what they do with production is mattering a little less. can they keep their dividends? do they have cash flow to cover

it? that is the focus. every quarter, it is usually production, production production. that came in bang in line. those metrics matter a little more. we are getting a reading on capex comeing in at $8.3 billion. scarlet: we were talking about production. why is it significant to meet production target? alix: big oil has had a tough time growing. it is important that they keep these production targets study. exxon has had an aggressive growth profile for a major. expectations are down sequentially. last quarter, they made about 4.2 billion oils -- barrels of oil equivalently. matt: how is it going to look going forward if they start reducing workforce labor? alix: we should make a

distinction that exxon is in the best case scenario. they are an outlier. they did have a big monkey on their back in the form of xp l energy acquisition -- xpo energy acquisition from a few years ago and there is still an oversupply , but they are in a cash flow world better than anybody else. they might not need to cut from their dividend. scarlet: there is annexed on exceptionalism that we are talking about. vonnie:alix: yes. they are cutting their share of buybacks in half. it is all about dividends. matt: we have more breaking news. in the form of m&a. i want to go to bonnie for that. -- vonnie for that. vonnie: it is a $2.45 billion deal. berry plastics is based in

evansville, indiana. the stock price is rising about 3%. the price tag is at $2.45 billion. avintiv is a closely held company. we will see a little bit more about what of into -- avintiv does. it will create a global leader in plastics with that acquisition. scarlet: thank you so much for that update. matt: by the way plastics must be getting a little bit cheaper. berry plastics takes up avintiv for 3% of exxon mobil's quarter. scarlet: companies that rely on oil related products are seeing some m&a. when we seeing him and a with big companies -- m&a with big

companies? alix: it could be happening soon. because of the fall in oil price, they could be getting less for reserves. if they continue to see lower oil prices, hedges are rolling off. that could spell doomsday in 2016. valuations could come down. scarlet: all right. allied steel -- alix steel keeping an eye on everything. matt: what a pleasure to have alix steel onset with us. scarlet: the top five things you need to watch. commodities are extending their worst monthly slump. oil was already in a bear market and it rallied and now it is in another bear market. a bear market within a bear market. matt: who was the citi analysts

to set it might hit $20? not that that was a long-term forecast. our people as bearish now as they were the first time oil had its big drop? alix: no. citi still thinks there could be $40 oil but current production cost, capex cost and job reduction will lead to a tighter market perhaps third 2017. -- through 2017. you are going to want to watch for the non-opec oil non-us the big deep water projects that take years to come on. of those production forecasts miss, you are going to see trouble. matt: we have a number of commodities guests to speak with in the next couple of hours. we are watching puerto rico.

their public finance corporation will likely fail to make it $58 million payment due tomorrow. the corporation was created to help puerto rico finance various governmental activities. this will be the official default of puerto rican debt. then you will see all of the creditorstogether to try to restructure the loans. scarlet: we have a quick take function where we give contacts to puerto rico. it has the population of oklahoma. yet it has more debt than any u.s. state after california or new york. matt: what is the quick take function on bloomberg? scarlet: it will get you smart on anything you need to know. puerto rico has been criticized as america's greece. matt: they said, i would tread desk loudly trade you greece for puerto rico. scarlet: i don't think schaeuble kids at all. let's head over to julie hyman.

julie: thank you. talking about the hotel industry. intercontinental denied merger talks with scar would -- starwood. starwood fell sharply yesterday. a starwood acquisition by intercontinental would create the world's largest hotel operator. starwood is exploring strategic options. if it is not going to be intercontinental, if this denial is correct, then we will have to figure out who it could potentially be if it is not going to be these two getting together. scarlet: i wonder if airbnb is forcing hotel operators to consolidate? matt: i think it definitely is. there is a creeping m and a trend in hotels. scarlet: their business model has structurally changed. matt: absolutely.

i'm going to bring your number four. we have today's economic data to watch. consumer sentiment, numbers for july, they come out for july at 10:00 a.m. it has not been pretty for this last month. obviously, you see a lot of other economic indicators. what are we looking for? current conditions. 106 was the reading last time. we will see. i think the forecast for 94, as far as sentiment, that would be better than last month. scarlet: we are leading up to next week's release of data, which includes the core inflator and jobs on friday. at number five, moore oil company earnings are in the pipeline. it is a miss on the bottom line. in 21 minutes, chevron will be

reporting earnings. they are the number two u.s. oil company behind chevron. -- exxon. why would chevron come out with giant cuts before earnings? alix: great question. maybe to get ahead of it and do something different. we heard a lot of job cuts from shell. it is not unusual that we would hear that. i do want to point out that where the integrated model is going to work this quarter and where it has not worked in the past is in downstream operations. it is basically the products that we make. that has been really crushing it. revenue came out at about 1.5 billion dollars. that is up year on year in terms of quarters.

almost $6 billion year on year. matt: we just showed a chart highlighting job con announcements. scarlet: thousands for schlumberger. matt: if you are going to announce earnings that are a dollar from this year you have to show investors that you are doing something about it. chevron is expected to announce earnings of $1.16. that compares to last year's quarter of $2.58. scarlet: i like to point out the year ago number. the consensus has been brought down. you compare it to a year ago. that is where the rubber meets the road. alix: how about six years? this is exxon's worst or mint in

six years. -- worst performance in six years. the refining business become so important and it will be something to pay attention to. chevron's integrated model was a bad thing are these guys. everyone wanted exposure to the shale companies and these were the unloved that sisters of the oil community and now this is really helping them survive this downturn. they made money. that is something. scarlet: you were looking at this earlier in terms of earnings overall. alix: although, results have been much better than estimated. scarlet: alix steel, thank you so much for hanging out with us.

and for giving your intelligence. matt: these two women are probably the most well prepared. alix: that is only because you are contrasting yourself with us. scarlet: smack down. [laughter] matt: what you missed at 4:00 p.m. eastern. scarlet: we have chevron breaking in about 15-18 minutes. matt: they are expected to earn $1.15. we will bring you rob leary president of asset management. they have $869 billion under management. ♪

we see commodities, emerging markets. tell us about the correlations you see across asset classes and how you work to avoid that inter-linkage. >> it is an incredibly turbulent time in the markets overall. our investment performance has done incredibly well. part of it is because we are so well diversified. one of the things we really like about a well diversified portfolio is that balance. 40% equities, 44% fixed income. we feel very good about the balance overall. scarlet: what do you give up to get that lack of correlation. do you give up liquidity? >> we do. we are a very long-term investor. whether it is an global real

estate or commodities or other investors, we take long-term on credit and other investments. we find a way to give up some liquidity in order to get higher returns for our clients. we also go with uncorrelated asset classes as a way to balance portfolios. matt: you have 5 million individual clients. 15,000 institutions. you manage my mother's retirement fund. iowa's think of tiaa -- i always think of tiaa cref as managing investments for teachers, but that is his only about two thirds of your client base. >> we are very [laughter] happy to have your mother. >> but that is our core business. we provide financial services for those who serve others. about a third of our client base

responsible investing. we will be back. ♪

matt: we are back with rob leary, president of asset management for tiaa-cref. before we get to social investing you talk about the individualization aspect of what investors can do with your fund. have you make that possible for everybody to tailor portfolio to what they want? >> for those in our retirement system, we offer all types of individual advisory to help them taylor as much as they want. more broadly are mutual funds are offered around the country

and increathe world. they have the ability to do that directly with us or through a financial advisor. matt: are you seeing more people become active in their own investments? >> we are seeing that. people want individual attention depending on who they are. increasingly, we are able to offer that in a user-friendly way. scarlet: part of people getting involved is investing in a socially responsible way. i wanted to bring in a quote from one of your competitors. here is what he told us. >> we are not doing it for social change. we don't make laws and we don't bring about social change. it is about investment risk. if you look at those industries they have not done well. scarlet: what do you think of

that? that divesting does not drive change. whether it is from a gun maker or fossil fuel company, the social responsible investing is not about change? >> let me clarify. callister's would not be a competitor of ours, maybe a client of ours. they are a large public pension fund. our constituency is everybody from the teachers and professors you mentioned and a lot of people have different goals. somewhat more risk, some want less risk. generally speaking, we try to stay away from somebody like investment decisions and the like. in our passive portfolios, they represent a broad, diversified market here. it is really impossible in those situations to make those kind of choices. we try to give our investors of all kinds the full panoply of

investment choices. for those who are particularly socially conscious, we give them specific funds targeted to them to make the choices they want. matt: you have taken alternative investments a lot more global. what are the winners for you? you mentioned passive funds. we talked to someone is that active investing is the way to go from here on out. >> i agree. we have had this incredible bull market after the financial crisis. passive has turned out to be the way to go. it was an elevator ride on the way up. i think in the last two quarters, we have seen the number of acid integers -- asset managers have distinguished themselves without the benchmarks very well. i think that will continue. i think we will continue to see volatile markets. i think this is the time to think more about active

management overall. that is another area in evolving markets. matt: thanks so much for joining us. >> thank you very much. scarlet: we've got some breaking news right now. a deal involving ups. let's go to vonnie. vonnie: $1.8 billion in cash is what the deal is based on. we learned about this earlier on. it has become official. it is happening today. a deal between coyote and ups. this is the third largest logistics deal in the industry this year. xpo logistics later that month bought a european counterpart. a deal in the transportation and delivery business. scarlet: ups has made a number

of acquisitions. matt: we talk about m&a prevalent in some areas. m&a are prevalent in some areas in the oil industry because they are not earning as much as they were in the past. you will see smaller players he bought up. others are making money hand over fist because their fuel costs have dropped. scarlet: chevron numbers have just crossed, what do you see? on a: -- bonnie: we will see if that is the final figure. we might get adjustments. they are looking for an adjustment of $1.13 on adjustments. it is a difficult environment for these big, large-scale oil companies. there was a loss of one point 04 billion dollars in the second quarter.

second-quarter revenues for chevron came in at billions of dollars. it is a big mess overall in revenue for chevron. scarlet: thank you. bonnie just updated us on the upstream earnings in u.s. and internationally. negative $1.04 billion for upstream earnings. for international upstream earnings negative $1.8 billion. matt: they will fire 1500 people , shall will fire people. we are looking at a 0.2% gain. we were looking for a 0.6% gain. you're not looking at the information in employment that would have driven the fed earlier to a rate cut.

trial. they put it in health-care workers on the front line. they found it was 100% effective . it is a huge deal for public health, for people in that part of the world, for health workers who attempted to fight the outbreaks. scarlet: is this going to make money for the company? >> it will not be a huge moneymaker. other health organizations will be paying for these types of things. it means that you can send people into these outbreaks. you can vaccinate people and economies will not shut down for months while an outbreak is going on. matt: that is incredibly good news. the story that we originally booked you to talk about is a two or for hepatitis c. it is expensive. we are talking about an actual cure? >> it is a drug that is a massive breakthrough.

got back their outfit. not only from saudi arabia, but iraq, we think they will run into loading problems with a high output from the south. there is the geopolitical risk in the north and turkey. we saw a 600 barrel a day pipeline bomb. these risks seem to be raising the price of oil over the course of the next -- matt: can i ask, we have been talking about commodities that are produced at cheaper levels then they're falling prices are currently. copper is one. gold is another. we heard that saudi arabia can produce oil for $10 a barrel? mr. cohen: what we need to pay attention to is over the course of the next two to three years, is is new drilling going to occur at these price levels?

this morning, we said there are a lot of projects that have not received a final investment decision. these companies do not necessarily want to approve them in this spirit of volatility in the market. that is what the saudis and the oil tech companies are trying to do. they have essentially added this element of volatility into the market and have made it difficult for other companies to sanction new projects. matt: they are adding capacity so that competitors cannot add new wells? mr. cohen: they are keeping their output high to make sure they can reclaim the market share they have lost. our price level has remained the same. scarlet: the direction? mr. cohen: we think, that given

rates which will take away a lot of interest in latin america, and you have commodities. and you have the idiosyncratic problems in the countries that is exacerbating what is going on externally. in mexico you have oil falling when they are trying to open their oil sector. it is a lot of bad luck. jack: i would look at mexico as a shining star among the latin american countries. they are doing some elements of reform. their natural growth rate is 2.5% to 3%. with telecom and oil it is 4%. if i was putting money they that is where it would be. matt: is it a good place relative to the other latin american countries? jack: in terms of rule of law? i do not think it is any worse

painful month it has been. jack: commodities are not tied to the dollar, they are tied to oil. we have an oversupply of oil. oil is the biggest input to cost in commodity when it comes to extracting and refining. when that cost comes down and you can have a dollar contribution to overhead by continuing to mine you will do it. we will have an oversupply in broad commodities for a long time to come. scarlet: with that apply with soft commodities as well? jack: it is a big input there as well. matt: yesterday they said that soft commodities might be oversold. something like offer, oil, and gold does not help the goal 10,

exxon has really been returning cash to shareholders. the fact it cut it sharing purchases in half to $500 million is something that is definitely hurting the stock price this morning. it also cut spending on major projects as many of its competitors have been doing. as for chevron, it posted the lowest profit in more than a decade. we know what is behind this. the lower commodity prices taking their toll on the energy producers. a quick check on linkedin here the company raising its annual forecast but seeing a lot of the growth comes from education services company it bought lynda.com. people are concerned about its main business. its talent solution business, the core business actually saw a revenue up 38%. that is not good enough it seems for investors today. they fell off shares by 9%. matt: we have disappointed with twitter which started out as a

surprise and turned to disappointment when jack dorsey was frank with investors. then you have disappointment with facebook when mark zuckerberg asked investors to please be patient. and now you have real disappointment in linkedin. julie: you look at their pace these companies have been on in years in terms of the pace of growth. now they are getting to a different phase of their lives, particularly when you looking at facebook, something of that size. they are investing more in the business and trying to look for the next leg up of growth, it's not going to come from the current business. you have these growing pains and different cycles and their businesses. matt: growing pains. scarlet: that's why public trading is when growth is ended and your best prospects are earlier stage. julie: when none of the rest of us have access to it. scarlet: julie hyman, thank you. we are playing the yearbook game and this woman touches all

look at a big developed market index like this israel is a .6% weighting. if most people own israel through that. they are not really feeling israel. that's why they have this value out here. the big one uses the msci israel is yes. it has about 140 million, is not huge, trades about $1 million with a shared today. it's your typical country, meaning heavy financial, top-heavy meaning some companies make up a big waiting tebow makes up a 24% weighting. julie: that's the biggest company in the country. eric: that's a classic way to look at it. it's fine for a lot of people. another one takes the alternative approach. this one basically says it thinks global to provide local. it a lot of israel companies do

not primary list in israel. they list in europe and new york. this etf is 30% nonprimary listed israel companies. you are getting more tech and health care companies, which you may want. this is the same situation we see in china where alibaba gets lost in the shuffle. this one catches those guys. this year, it is slightly underperforming because of the lack of exposure to teva. is a lack of what you are looking for, not as to that -- not who is winning or losing. this is double the shares. is attaching for a 59 basis points. those of the two main ways to play. julie: then you have another one. eric: i do. we said which ugs had a tempers and exposure to israel. one is a pure fun cyber security etf, the sort of feel-good story of the year it's up 21% this year.

11% israeli companies, i was talking to the guy who started this. he said a lot of people in them is real -- the military in israel started cyber secured a firms. it's a hotbed. julie: that when you're getting more volatility. eric: it's about equal to the s&p. it's not a lot. a lot of country's are very volatile. this thing is about double the volatility of the s&p 500. julie: i'm thinking of companies like fireeye or palo alto networks. every time you get a report of a hack attack we see them tend to shoot up and then they come back down. i imagined that in etf tracking company like that would be equally volatile. eric: that's right, but the thing with uts is if you invest one of those cyber security stocks, you are looking at volatility about double the etf. even though hack is volatile, it if you average it, it would be double etf. as a whole, it very volatile. julie: interesting stuff on

israeli etf. and now the big reveal. scarlet: we've been waiting for this. numeral. -- from role. it's diane sawyer. that is was among guest. it's not either of those people. matt: people are guessing the only women they know and media. scarlet: i heard meg whitman as well as another alternative. three strikes you're out. none of those people. it is -- matt: martha stewart. scarlet: no orange jumpsuit. matt: we have a couple of tweets. this jersey girl martha better known as martha stewart, beautifies our daily lives and makes killer orzo cups. scarlet: that's what she does so well. matt: i don't know what orzo is?
