2:09 pm
will you notice other than the headlines? >> the rate increase is trivial. with their concerned about is that monetary policy is transmitted through bond yields, mortgage rates, and currencies. all three of those asset markets , they don't have full control over the market reaction, and over the market pricing. they have much less influence than they did 20 or 30 years ago. that's why there are skittishness about the first hike. not because 25 basis points means that much, but about the way in which the different financial markets that transmit policy are going to factor that in. as i said, because they haven't laid out a real strategy before the exit, that's part of the challenge. of pimco,ard clarida managing director's meeting with tom keene and michael mckee on bloomberg "surveillance and go -- "surveillance." still you how the ceo still manages to get an ivy league a hike. ♪

2:43 pm
i think we just need to get it out of the way, get the fed to take it vantage of the market conditions we have now. the economy is certainly strong enough to warrant it. the only thing that may hold them off is the market level of volatility, where they may want to wait another quarter or so. the inflation picture gives them that excuse. bias would be, let's get it done and move on. does normalization, perhaps it happens, 2016, but more importantly, the divergent paths the fed is taking from the ecb origin -- bank of japan, does that make investing easier for micromanagers? >> i think it does. where it will get easy, and that is a relative term, is once we get this central bank intervention out of the way. markets can back to behaving in

a more normal path. then it will get easier for macro. if you go back eight years, since the crisis, it has been a very difficult environment for systematic and fundamental macro . once you get normalization of policy, those strategies will come back into favor. what does normalization mean for the liquidity concerns we see in the fixed income market? >> there is plenty of cash sitting out there. i do not see a real crisis there. gamesou can see is that developed where you will get sharp price moves. if you look at corporate balance sheets flush with cash, individuals generally in a much better position, if you look at some of the usual fun flow data, it shows people have been building cash positions to run the volatility of the summer. if you look at any of the stats coming out of the wire houses and brokerage firms, their clients still own a lot of cash.

2:48 pm
they make the cut but only one or two countries actually follow through, and the rest keep on pumping? that is correct. usually saudi arabia does all the heavy lifting while the other members and producers are pre-loaders. see.ve to we are listening for news releases from moscow, mexico city. if they came along, opec would do something, but until they do, opec will sit tight. pimm: i'm sure you will be watching, thank you. some ofs take a look at our top stories crossing the bloomberg terminal. we start in the pharmaceutical industry. mylan pharmaceutical plans to begin its hostile takeover of terror go next week. mylan'ses have rejected offer, but they are trying to persuade shareholders to accept. amazon is getting into the

2:53 pm
about this iphone? expectation is that they will announce probably to new iphones, to upgrade the 6 and 6 plus. maybe they will be adding an s. we can expect a better camera, and the ability to record even more video, front facing camera making high quality video. that is a bigger deal for this company because the iphone has been such a big percentage of revenues, greater than ever before, where they you look on a quarterly or yearly basis. months, 65%ing 12 of revenues.
2:54 pm
principally, this is a company where order nearly two thirds of revenue comes from the sale of that one product. but they have changed the way they have done that. at the end of the fiscal year, 56%. in just three quarters they have gone from 56% to 64% coming from iphones. in part, because they changed the way that they unveiled these products. it used to be first in the u.s. and then spreading to other geographies. a year ago when they announce the six and the six plus, they launched in the u.s. and china, and that led to massive year-over-year growth, but will give them tough comparisons. smartphone growth is shrinking from 20% year-over-year to probably 2%, according to idc. so the headwinds are great in china. pimm: any word on any new watch versions? cory: there is speculation that

3:03 pm
presidential veto. matt: former vice president dick cheney is blasting the nuclear deal with iran. the white house is firing back. cheney spoke earlier today in washington. >> i know of no nation in history that has guaranteed the means of its own destruction will be in the hands of another nation, particularly one that is hostile. what president obama is asking the u.s. congress to do is unique. historically and dangerously unique. the results could will be catastrophic. matt: the white house responded by posting a video montage of his statements about the iraq war. the video says cheney was wrong then and is wrong now. i recommend you search it on youtube, it is worth watching. pimm: media general is buying meredith corporation. it will create one of the largest corporations of tv networks in the u.s. called company will be
3:04 pm
meredith media general. it will be headed by the meredith chief executive steve lacey. macy's and best buy are in a deal to sell electronics. shops will open in 10 macy's locations. the space will be staffed by best buy employees and feature samsung products. the company will test the concept through the holiday shopping content. period. matt: microsoft is teaming up to boost in an attempt sales of the surface. microsoft has just a fraction of the tablet market, obviously. jovi's first ever performances in china have been shot down by chinese officials. shanghai set to play and beijing later this month, but now are not happening. because thently
3:05 pm
band used a backdrop image of the dalai lama at 82010 gig in taiwan. ask include maroon five and oasis who have also had their gigs in china canceled after showing support for the exiled tibetan spiritual leader. those are your top stories. matt: he even recorded a song in chinese, so the chinese people will be very depressed when they realize -- if they are told -- that he is no longer allowed to play in china. let's take a look at u.s. stocks , following the lead of chinese equities. the stock market trading you the highs of the day. dow jones adding 2.25%. the s&p, 1964. the nasdaq, a gain of 2.5%.
3:06 pm
technology and industrial stocks leading the rally. more onining us with the markets is jeff kleintop, chief investment strategist at goldman sachs in boston. let me ask you if we should be following -- it seems like every day we do whatever the chinese markets do, even though they are clearly being fixed by the chinese communist party. it is not even a very important stock market, so why? china's biggest export these days seems to be volatility, and it seems to be what we are buying up. i think we are trying to attribute these up and done moves to originating in china. i think there are more fundamental factors at work, a battle between the bots and the buybacks. tremendous amount of authorizations in place for more buyback activity. have been buying shares all year, no reason what
3:07 pm
they would not be buying at these levels. that is part of the reason for this up-and-down movement, but it is something we have to get with all of this associate volatility with the global economy. tom: take us through november. what should people be focused on in terms of putting your money? >> the most important thing, i think, are the service industries. we do not get as much data on them. for traffic, commodity prices. tied to services seem to be doing the best. that has been a sweet spot for the markets. manufacturing has been weakening while services have remained strong globally. that will be important data as we continue to get the service pmi numbers. look for that to benefit service oriented areas of the market. matt: and we put in a bottom, are we going up or down? >> we don't think the bull
3:08 pm
market is over yet, but may be due to a pause. volatility around these rate hikes, it is not the first one that matters so much, but how soon the second one comes along that will matter most to the markets to gauge the rate of pace. what about investing in small and mid-cap stocks focused on business in the u.s.? it's an interesting idea. i am not so pessimistic on what is going on outside the u.s. caps a bitlike large more. look at europe. economic activity is improving. we just got upward revisions to the last two quarters in gdp growth. maybe 2% gdp growth over the course of the next year or so. japan also beginning to pick up. maybe large-cap exposure is the way to go. pimm: so what would you not touch?
3:09 pm
sectorsry about those sensitive to interest rates, telecom and utilities. interest rates have been low for some time. some of the news we got out of china this morning, moving money out of foreign-currency reserves into investments. this is money that used to go to u.s. treasury buying. now we could see interest rates on the long and drifting higher as well. utilities weigh on and telecoms, so dependent on the interest rates. matt: do you expect the fed to move now? we could see a temper tantrum in the equity markets and that would boost the dollar, change commodity prices, probably to the downside, maybe exacerbating problems. >> we felt a lot of that already. i don't think when the first one happens does not matter much. it is more about when they follow on.
3:10 pm
certainly, if they are tighter together, one meeting after the next, or even one meeting a part, that could raise concerns related to commodity prices, certainly would push the dollar higher, then what is currently priced into estimates. active management or passive management, mutual funds or etf? >> i think both can work. you have some major macro themes that will continue. also, we are in an environment where volatility picks up, and that favor some type of active management. both can work. thank you, jeff kleintop, chief investment strategist at charles schwab from boston. coming up, a lot of winners today but what about netflix? 3.75%ares are down nearly , while everything else is higher. we will explain why the selloff continues. ♪
3:13 pm
pimm: this is the bloomberg market day. i am pimm fox. matt miller. stocks are on pace to wipe out all of their losses from last week. julie hyman has the latest. raising to there highs of the session, the nasdaq on pace to be positive for the that it is, not very old thus far. also positive on the year. the dow rising to pretty much it size of the session. up by 350 points. all of this being driven by a broad-based rally among the different groups in the s&p 500. in terms of individual stocks lending the most to the gains, apple is a by nearly 2% ahead of
3:14 pm
its product announcement tomorrow. microsoft is higher after announcing that it was going to make some content available from disney. general electric, after getting approval of its acquisition of energy products. tico energy is having its best one-day gain. up 25 percent after being agreed by a purchased canadian company. the total value of the deal is $6.5 billion. there has been a lot of opposition to utility deals recently from regulators, but some analysts say this one has a pretty good shot of going
3:15 pm
through because canadian firms tend to be a little more hands-off in managing their u.s. power assets. the one-stop not keeping pace is netflix. the worst performer in the s&p 500 today. you can see it is down by 4%. bere does not seem to anything in particular driving these shares lower, but it has hit a number of different milestones, none of them positive. isyou look at the stop, it the second worst performer on the s&p 500 for all of last week. the seventh straight day of losses, it's worst streak since march of last year when it also had its worst performance on a monthly basis. at its lowest level in two months. we have been talking about technical levels a lot lately. netflix is also falling below its 100-day moving average. that is on the bloomberg terminal. the 100-day line is moving average.
3:16 pm
falling below that level today. it is interesting on a day where everything is rallying. by the way, netflix is still one of the best performers to date, but interesting it is not participating in the rally today. 94% year to date, so you are still happy if you bought december 31, but if you stopped watching amazon prime, you may have stopped watching netflix. blue, yet was a new service, so there is a lot of competition. a united nations agency says it is mounting a worldwide campaign for equal pay for women . the leader of the united nations women's agency says female employment matched male employment per capita gdp would and 19% in southeast asia, 27% in the middle east and north africa. on average, women in asia make

3:18 pm
halperin. hope you had a good holiday weekend. is jeb bush still in the race? >> he is still in the race, he has the most money raised. his first ad going up in new hampshire today. making a couple of apparent references to mr. trump. why won't he attack indirectly? >> too soon and no mileage and it. the question of who would go after trump. media is a lot of chatter among republicans. a you are the first to run negative ad against trop, he would come back with his own. that may take down trunk, but it may take you down as well. matt: you must have enough to say about yourself that you do not need to attack the reality tv star. not mention by name,
3:19 pm
but there are two clear references. you think about all the crazy way that trump would have discombobulated the campaign. no one would have thought that would make his first television ad about him. tune in tonight, 5:00 p.m. eastern for "with all due respect." berkshire hathaway's chairman is in new york today making good on his lunch commitment to the winner of this year's glide foundation auction. warren buffett is now standing by with david westin from smith and will and skis steakhouse in new york. you.ank we are here with more and buffet. thank you for your time. lunche having your annual which you auction for the glide
3:20 pm
foundation. tell us about that and why you are involved. and -- inas a church san francisco that was dying. bunch of white parishioners, then a black minister was sent there, and the rest of them quit. he turned a really defunct church into one of the most remarkable social institutions you can imagine. he has helped probably hundreds of thousands of people who have given up on themselves, the family has given up on them, society, but cecil never gives up. they give a couple thousand meals a day, thousands of volunteers, big a vocational they take ins, battered women, you name it. everyone as ifh they were the most important person in the world. >> and your wife susie was involved. actually sort of beat up
3:21 pm
on me to go there one time. athought this was probably phony of some sort. i am a skeptical guy. i probably should've been in the news business. i went on a sunday and i was blown away. he was for real. these people were having their lives changed. thing, that she convinced me to go there. i cannot do enough to help. >> through these lunches, you have raised $20 million for glide. i guess they thought it was lucky, but they won the lunch this year. >> the chairman of a chinese videogame company. warren: he had his wife and a few friends, and we had a terrific lunch. ofthere has been a lot turmoil, lots of ups and downs in china. you have been pretty bullish on
3:22 pm
china. as this tempered your enthusiasm, the extent of the government intervention in equity and fx markets? time.: not at this this country has gone through a couple of world wars, the great depression, civil war. we have had lots of ups and downs in the country, but overall we kept moving forward. >> long-term you are big on china. warren: they have a long way to go. >> any opportunities? you have done some investing. warren: we are open to ideas, we have a number of factories there. but capital travels. what extentina, to are you concerned that there may be indications of a global slowdown? china is slowing down, we are not sure by how much. brazil has enough problems. it will be there for a while. u.s. numbers are fair to middling. , bute is growing some
3:23 pm
slowly. should we be concerned about the global turnout, and what, from a policy point of view, can be done? is unlike the world will have a slowdown, but it can. it has not been a straight line here or any other place. what i look at is 10, 20 years out. there is no way america will not make progress, china will not make progress, europe will not make drivers over that time. i cannot predict the ups and downs in between. i don't know how to do it. i do know that the tide is really with humans. we learn more and more about how to unleash human potential. we are the same people we were 200 years ago, but look at how we are living compared to then. rule of law, market systems, equality of opportunity -- none of which are perfect -- but as we push on those, the world moves forward. >> you have written on income
3:24 pm
inequality in "the wall street journal." you think this is a very big issue for us. warren: this is a huge issue but we are moving in the right direction on that over time. an enormously rich economy, well over 50,000 gdp per capita. six times, in real terms, what it was when i was born. it blows her mind. if you told my parents in 1930, eren i was born, that th would be this amount of poverty, they would've laughed. >> and the disparity is going the other way. of an: the natural forces market and capitalism will drive that disparity, unless government does things to help, and they have done things to do that, but more needs to be done. increasing the minimum wage, it
3:25 pm
is nice to get it, but it also causes more people to be unemployed. the clearing system for labor will leave a lot more people out of $15. the real thing people need, if you are poor, is not a higher minimum wage, they need money. if they are willing to work, the earned income tax credit is the way to go. >> tell me about organized labor and if this can play a role. the president is having a summit in october about income inequality. michigan --flint flint, michigan. uaw really helped. maybe that does not work now, but what do you think about organized labor? no question, in certain industries, the workers are doing better than they would have otherwise. successes inme other places as well, but the real problem is not that evil
3:26 pm
that fit in well. it is the people whose skills do not command much of a market price. them all organize and it would not do any good in terms of making their skills worth more in this economy. but they are entitled. if the best they can do is be a cleaning lady, god bless them, they should have a reasonable life in a country this prosperous. if you say the minimum wage is $15 an hour, my cleaning lady probably will not have a job. but if you change the earned income tax credit, were if you work 40 hours, you will have the income of some of that got $15 an hour -- >> that skills disparity goes back to education. it is not the u.s. education has gotten worse but the rest of the world has gotten better, as the demand has gone up in the marketplace. education has to be a part of it. warren: you want people educated
3:27 pm
to their potential. will not work for some people in a highly developed system. if this were a sports-based system, you could give me a phd in football, i could practice eight hours a day, and i might --able to carry the water not onto the field, but from the locker room to the bench. some people just do not fit well into a highly skilled market-based economy. you still want them to get the most out of their abilities, but if their ability leave them unable to earn much more than to doverty level, we got something additional for them. we have the resources. >> come back to the here and now in the media. merging with meredith. you have a slight interest in that. they are the largest shareholder. we all must than 5% now.
3:28 pm
it got diluted down when they made an earlier merger. we have lust and $75 million in the stock. >> you originally purchased the newspapers. it looks like media general is ruth.into the broadcast meredith has 17 affiliated stations but they have more magazines. is that a change in their strategic direction, is this a television broadcast business? is the tv isess the primary motivation. i don't know, i have never talked to anyone with media general. i have never had a conversation with anyone at media general. >> you have been invested in television before. we owned a station in miami, doing pretty well. my old boss.
3:29 pm
do you see that as a growth business, at this point, broadcast tv warren: i don't see it as a growth business, particularly. the world is really changing, media and communications. i love newspapers, but that does not mean that they will do well financially. >> the big advantage of broadcasting is it is a cash is this. warren: exactly. >> you are the preeminent value investor. -- i was at cap city as a young general counsel. you invested in tom murphy as much as anyone. warren: and dan burton. those two may have been the best management duo in history of the world. >> i felt blessed to work under them. warren: and among the best human beings.
3:30 pm
>> agreed on both points. you pick ceos fairly well. you want hillary clinton to be the ceo of the country, essentially. how concerned are you about how she is handling this private e-mail situation? warren: it you do not want to have too many of them, but i do not consider that determined to of all decks at all of who should become president. i believe she has a vision to similar tot is very mine. for everyone to enjoy the prosperity we enjoy. i think she would work very hard getting policies implemented that would lead to that. that is what really counts. i have made so many mistakes. unless we will put on a four hour special, you will not get to them all. [laughter] >> she will still be your ceo.
3:31 pm
buffett: sure. >> donald trump. buffett: i would not be surprised if i agree quite a bit with his economic program, just from what he's that. he thinks the rich should pay more. he thinks the carried interest should be treated instead as regular income, just like they would be with investment advisors. in terms of tax policy, i have not heard him say anything yet that i disagree with. >> energy. you have been involved in the energy business for quite a while. you have exxon mobil only for a couple of years. pretty short. back into 66, a different kind of company.
3:32 pm
how much of those decisions is averned by your view on long-term oil prices as opposed to something else? mr. buffett: i do not have strong views on that but i did aboutss enthusiastic crude oil prices. felt the future was not going to be as good as people would think it would be. >> your anticipation, what might happen a crude was part of the decision. how much of that is driven by possible connections with northern santa fe? warren: none. question, breaking bad. you are a big fan. is anything there to replace it for you? "better call saul" is a
3:33 pm
great program. -- theg bad will go down writing, i wonder how in the world you could end this thing right and they ended it right where the talent that was on there. there were half a dozen really outstanding actors and actresses. i do not think the world will see anything better than that. vince gilligan got four stars in my book. >> ok, great. thank you very much, warren. back to you. tim: you have been listening to speaking with david westin. at some of thek other top stories we're following or you this afternoon starting with north and l3 of trying to wrap -- ratchet down tensions. unions of families divided by the war in almost two years.
3:34 pm
each side will send 100 people to a north korean resort next month. 56,000 south koreans are on the waiting list for those reunions. the biggest names in private equity has announced the higher of one of the biggest names in british as is. he broke the news right here on bloomberg to test bloomberg. hasjohnson, justin king been named as vice-chairman of his company. they also discussed the investment climate in today's global markets. investmentdifficult landscape, probably the most difficult in my lifetime. what that means is in terms of private equity, there are opportunities, quite short term. you really have to grab them and be able to execute them very quickly. he is looking to kickstart in the tmi takeover bid.
3:35 pm
--e big higher the: meanwhile in pharmaceutical industry, a $27 billion hostile takeover next week. executives of the over-the-counter drug maker -- shareholders to accept it. uber's rival in china has raised nearly 3 -- another round of financing according to people familiar with the matter. uber says it has raised $1.2 million so far. they announced they would give away $161 million worth -- against other players in the industry. those are your top stories. i will leave it with you. pimm will split now and i
3:38 pm
3:39 pm
happening. you see blogging. demand and tosay really stream information world, it isthe raising and raising. you have clients getting younger and younger as well over the years. also very much used to modern devices, online media, and all that stuff nearly are catering basically for a new niche. to really unveil. matt: this one has apparently more legroom. the rear end kind of reminds me of an old -- an old boat. what do you think are your favorite designs on this?
3:40 pm
definitely where we have put it outside onto the roof but also down to the interior of the car and that is gorgeous. that amounts to what i would call professional crafting in yachting. that is exactly the feeling when you are driving that. it is gorgeous. imagine sitting in this car, driving down the pacific coastal highway. note better place on earth. matt: with as much power, i am sure it is a lot of fun. we read that you are aiming toward getting more female buyers as well as younger buyers. does the dawn head in that direction for you?
3:41 pm
>> definitely but we already made what i would call quite a lot of changes in our customer base over the last year's. the race changed massively the demographic- profile spirit young customers in our base. the reason we were able over the last five years. cater to what i will call lovely female customers. that is clearly our intention to grow in that field even further. matt: the most important part is the engine. the 6.6 liter v 12 engine. look at the markets. let's head over to julie hyman. julie: stocks rising nearly the highest in the session as we had to word the closing bell today.
3:42 pm
rising about 373 points at this time. the nasdaq also rising, the highs in the session, as well as the s&p 500 are extending the games that have really been in place or at the day and accelerating toward the close. interesting, we have seen the spark that ignited the rebound, the chinese late session rally overnight. we are seeing a late session rally of our own. you have got the map. various groups. it is a broad-based valid -- rally. health care materials, all leading gains and pretty to therate contributions games overall today, even energy, which is lagging, is up 1.4%. the rally we're seeing today is on lower volume than the declines we have seen recently. one way to look at that is i looking at the volume by industry groups. the same groups we were just which shows the
3:43 pm
change in volume in the past 20 days. the only uptick and i am is a utilities. we have got agreed-upon .cquisition for all the rest, telecom, volume in the telecom stocks and the s&p down 24%. energy down 19%. for technicians looking at this rally and seeing the volume that the down day, that might not be an encouraging sign going forward intentionally. let's look in other asset classes, for example the 10 year. the treasury market, a big movement upward, the biggest into this weeks. closer to the fed meeting on september 17, even though most futures traders are not pricing in an increase in that meeting here at we have been watching the fix rather closely, holding above 25 for 11 straight sessions.
3:44 pm
we might not make it for a 12. it was holding above 25 and it is now showing a little bit of a drop-off and volatility. finally looking at commodities today, we have seen a rebound and commodities particularly by china. copper has been higher by about 5%. higher.r, brent crude that is a technical matter here. brent was trading yesterday in london, and we have got crude hauling versus friday's brent is rising versus yesterday's close, something you also pointed out earlier. matt: thank you. i love that function there. now i look at the top stories making headlines at this hour. verizon is making a run at millennials. unfairek, verizon will three ad supported video services.
3:45 pm
of that age group watches video on mobile first, verizon says. amazon is providing free restaurant delivery to seattle prime members. looking to compete with aspanies like grubhub america's favorite eateries over supermarkets. spending at u.s. restaurants and bars overtook grocery stores for the first time ever in march. disney is adding amazon and microsoft to its movies anywhere cloud service, which lets customers store movies for multiple -- multiple vendors to watch later. moreervice now includes 450 digital titles. those are just some of the top stories we are following for you at this hour. now, back to work for lawmakers on the hill who returned today for summer recesses. a lot is on the agenda for congress, including tackling the budget debate and ongoing discussions over iran's nuclear
3:46 pm
deals. pelosi in her hometown of san francisco, amalie joins us now. about what ms.t poulos he had to say about the tech boom impact. it has felt destin felt there incredibly in pricing and houses. >> we spoke to congresswoman poulos he at the premiere of her daughter passes hbo documentary, which offers a scathing critique of the tech industry and how little they are doing to help the community here in san francisco as the income inequality gap widens. that was the focus of this conversation. this is where nancy pelosi's constituents are. we see this all play out in her district. these are companies creating jobs on the one hand here on the other hand, we them increasingly removed from the communities in which they lived. toe a listen to what she had say about what companies can do
3:47 pm
to be more responsible to the community. tech community, it is a tremendous advantage to san francisco. it has always been through the creation,nd job innovation, and if all of that is good for the community, as long as it does not change the character of the community. -- emily: a very politically correct answer from nancy pelosi. donors to her come from the technology community. certainly walking a fine line. very interesting to hear her this rising tension between tech and basically everyone else. matt: the candidate she supports for president seems to be tech savvy herself. hillary clinton using a private server or her e-mails and then deleting thousands of them and then wiping her server clean before turning it over to the
3:48 pm
state department or the fbi and what does nancy pelosi think about this? asked her, is she worried and at what point did this become a concern for the democratic party, and she was very confident this is not a concern and will not he a concern. listen to what she had to say about hillary specifically. ms. pelosi: i feel very confident she will not receive or send an e-mail that was marked classified. i do think the other side is trying to make something of it. up with, butowed wait, are you at all concerned this could play out badly for the democrats? she said again, i have confidence in hillary. i think she can get the job done. matt: once you have already given your support, you cannot turn around and take it back to you asked about the iran deal. i am supported -- i am assuming
3:49 pm
she is supportive of that as well. emily: right. nancy was critical, somewhat say the work she did you get that -- to get the democratic party on the side was breathtaking. she gave a lot of credit to the president can i asked her, did you have to make any promises to get the deal done and she said no. it was really a matter of asking other members what you need, what questions will you get from constituents that we can answer. it certainly works -- looks like in washington today, democrats have gotten the support they need so this measure to potentially block the deal will not get past so the president will not have to take back that deal. matt: no political wrangling necessary. emily: no promises at all. matt: thank you so much. tune in to bloomberg west later today at 4:30 p.m. eastern to see more of emily chang's bloombert west.
3:50 pm
3:52 pm
matt: u.s. stocks are heading higher today but the dow industrials are still lower, fairly substantially year to date. joining us now with more on what is happening in the markets, lisa abramowicz, follows the bond market, and bloomberg stocks editor mike reagan. it is interesting. i have been hesitant to say, this is a massive rally, put on my party hat, and get all the toys out. i have lived through the last few weeks. we were down so much last week that this did not seem like a huge and significant rally to me. it now seems to be pretty good. >> for a row -- for a one-day rally, it is great. you cannot really pin it on a short rally.
3:53 pm
you are absolutely right it is a switch on and off, every day or every two days. when you look at the chart pattern, we are still stuck. you have got to wonder if we will get stuck in another range a little lower down. until we break out of that, two days after the big drops a couple of days -- a couple of weeks ago, we almost -- still no were there. still gravitating toward that 19.5 level. [laughter] matt: she is itching to get into the conversation. beenhave got to say i have shocked about the volatility in stocks that we have seen. interestothing of except there is not much going on, especially compared to the stock market.
3:54 pm
he would think some of the volatility you're seeing in stocks would trickle out if not ifn in the vonn market, also volatility has been applied. it is coming down. even as we wait for the fed to say they are amazing and well -- cipated next week matt: which will be what? i can do w.a.r. p and fed funds futures saying there is a 28% chance of a move. i do not buy this function. i love the function on the bloomberg terminal. futures think fed funds are a great predictor. >> it is not treated it -- it is not consistent with wall street projections. a lot of analysts still expect the fed to move in september.
3:55 pm
that is not the only communication tool. they will possibly ratchet down expectations for the long-term, like target yields. basically, they will not raise rates all that much. we realized the trajectory is going to be low. we get what they are saying. before it saying would be like this and than they would come out and say it would be like that. >> this is the hazard of data dependency. you cannot dry line that will stay in place. be data is tough to dependent when you're itching to raise rates. >> why do you think stocks have been so volatile while bonds have been pretty much flatlining? >> i do not think bond market is
3:56 pm
quite at the level of trading that we have in the stock market . there are all sorts of debates about which types of strategies are going back and forth. no one can come to it a consensus. it is not one strategy that is doing it. of electronicsm trading going forth. it will be tough to really say. matt: when you have them all marching to the beat of the same drummer, you will have huge swings in both directions, at onst not very often with trading. lisa, thank you for joining us. i will take a quick rake and we will be back with more on the other side. ♪
4:00 pm
joe: we are away from the opening bell. matt: i am matt miller in for alix steel. ♪ joe: stocks sent equities in europe higher. matt: plus, the $72 billion debt map. enough and will there be a ripple effect? so-called liar loans. are we back? ♪ matt: let's kick it off with the markets. i have been hesitant all day to cry massive rally and put on a celebratory hat
