scarlet: from bloomberg world headquarters in new york, good afternoon. i'm scarlet fu. alix: i'm alix steel. breaking news and politics right now -- john kasich will be suspending his presidential campaign, according to nbc news. we will have more on that in a moment. scarlet: stocks are pulling back once again as the dow ended on three-week lows. my new comment from fed officials. , seem to add on investors fear the market. alix: apple on track for its worst year since the financial crisis. we will talk with one analyst who says there is hope with iphone seven. scarlet: we are halfway through the u.s. trading day. let's get the set up here with bloomberg's julie hyman. julie: can i say the band is back together?

scarlet: we are all back. julie: let's talk about what's going on in the markets. stocks are back toward the low of the session. near the bottom and they're not help with the next bag of data with a report that came below estimates with factory orders beating estimates. beating in thees u.s.. you can see that the major averages are not getting any solace from that. if you look at the s&p over the course of the day, it did make an attempt at a recovery in midmorning and then came back down again. it just about cut declines in half at one point. what is going on internally here? let's look at the groups on the move. energy shares of the worst performers along with materials, and financials, which were also dragging on major averages yesterday. utilities holding up well as we have seen natural gas prices fall and bond yields fall as

well. i did want to dig further into what is going on with oil prices. we haven't seen a rally in oil until we got the weekly inventory number coming up in oil prices abruptly turned around, paring their gains. andaw sharp movement there sharp movement in energy stocks as well. here's the s&p 500 energy index . they are dragging on the major indexes. oil prices showing that the climate we saw. but are still higher, definitely a sharp reversal from where they were earlier. inventories are showing a larger than estimated build in inventories. we have been watching the production numbers as well, which continue to come down. this is g #btv 1191. here are the inventory numbers. this is the absolute level and here's production. production fell for an eighth consecutive week. a good sign that production is using to some extent in the u.s.. that inventory number just keeps going up, which makes it a

little bit difficult year for oil prices to gain much traction. are also seeing declines in the market is in priceline, really taking it on the chin. the projected forecast missing estimates. julie: priceline is definitely example of that. it is coming out with that forecast and saying it is because of the timing of the easter holiday, but it also make some comments about global growth. this is a company that gets record as of its revenue from outside of the united states . priceline is feeling it, but you're seeing a ripple affect throughout the rest of the travel sector. booking companies are down today and airlines are also seeing weaknesses in today's session as well. it's not just because of priceline but because of these global growth concerns. delta and southwest and cruise line are lower in today's sessions. anything having to do with trouble is in the red today, ladies. scarlet: julie hyman, thank you

so much for that set up on today's market action. alix: let's check in on the bloomberg first word news this afternoon. marquand and has more from the newsroom. nbc: as you just mentioned, news is reporting that john kasich will suspend his presidential campaign. john kasich will make a statement and co-op is, ohio at 5:00 p.m. local time. the campaign had canceled an earlier plant news conference at dulles airport. the statement comes a day after ted cruz dropped out of the gop presidential race following donald trump's indiana primary win. mr. trump is talking about unifying the gop. he has been called the presumptive nominee after that win in indiana yesterday. the victory forced ted cruz to drop out. uphough mr. trump has turned millions of republicans with some of his comments, today he says he is confident that he can unite the party. president obama a firsthand look today at flint, michigan, and it's tainted water supply. the president will speak

to 1000 residents at a local high school. there was a state of emergency for months ago has of lead contamination in the water. officials have been charged in that case. global news 24 hours a day powered by our 2400 and journalists in more than 150 news bureaus around the world, i'm mark crumpton. alix: let's get more on this report that ohio jeff weiner governor john kasich is suspending his president of campaign. marty shanker joins us now. was this announcement expected? marty: actually last night after ted cruz exited the race, his campaign manager said they are staying in it till the end. he had a press conference scheduled for virginia -- canceled that. nbc news broke the fact that he is actually ducking out of the race. it is a mild surprise. scarlet: what you think changed between last night and today?

marty: i would imagine a lot of the people who he is closest to and some gop establishment type said, jon, you should really just clear the field for donald trump. he is going to win the nomination. out of respect for the process, he probably decided it is best to just it out. alix: can we infer from that that republican establishment figures will now be lending their support to donald trump? marty: that is the key question. i do not think you can assume anything. i'm sure that donald trump would sike to have john kasich' endorsement, but that is what everyone of those republican establishment types are going to have to decide over the next weeks to the convention whether they will come out and publicly support the nominee. that is the key question. scarlet: to that point, the rnc chairman called for the party to unite behind donald trump as the present of nominee. -- presumptive nominee.

do we look for ted cruz to come out and endorsed donald trump? do we look for john kasich to support the presumptive nominee? marty: again, that is a question that everyone of those people will half to dig inside of them and decide. his donald trump -- is donald trump an effective person to be running the gop or do they stand back and let happen? the other question is will these people show up at the convention itself? will they get speaking slots at the convention? these are all decisions that, trump ultimately will have to be -- donald trump ultimately will b have to be making. a lot of this is emotional and the day after donald trump essentially got the nomination. give it a few days and people may have second thoughts about whether they endorse him or not. alix: what kind of rhetoric -- or what do you expect the

rhetoric of the truck campaign to change now that he is the presumptive nominee? marty: i do not actually expect that to change a lot. when donaldampaign trump decided to be more "presidential," he came back the very next day and said that does not work for me. he has a point. his populist style, his bravado is what attracts him to his base. i think he is not as effective being presidential as he is being donald trump. i would not suspect his tone to change a lot. scarlet: interesting. what about the democratic party? all eyes are now on sanders versus clinton. are we waiting for bernie sanders to bow out or will this go all the way to the convention? marty: if you are waiting for that, you will be waiting until the convention. he has made it very clear that he is going to stay in it. he is probably going to continue to make headway in various

states that are still to vote. he has the money to do it. he wants his message to be loud and clear to the policy decisions at the convention for the platform. i do not think you will see bernie sanders dropout. carefulhas to be very about how she treats bernie because she needs that base. alix: what is the risk for the democrats that they have still yet to decide on their nominee whereas the republicans have clinched theirs? marty: the only thing it really does is give donald trump the ability to go after whoever is the democratic nominee. at this point, it's a must a sure bet that it's hillary clinton. hillary clinton has the basically -- to basically look to charge back at that. she has to also watch her rear flank with bernie sanders there. a complicates things for her and

gives her a distraction, but she has experience doing this. i think she will do fine. alix: thank you very much, marty. scarlet: as we had to break, a quick check on u.s. stocks coming off session lows. those posting their biggest losses for the second day. with anspeak investor who likes bankshares next. ♪

alix: you are watching "bloomberg markets." i'm alix steel. scarlet: i'm scarlet fu. as julie was telling us earlier, risk on is really on this week. we are talking about sentiment

and exchange traded funds could nevertheless, bearish sentiment seems to rule the day. interestt shows short in the percentage of the u.s. stock market. alix: ask him off its recent high, but it is still extremely elevated, especially from the levels of 2011. it is the highest level that we have seen in the bull market. our next guest says he shares some of the negative sentiment. chris, what are you doing in the stock weakness we have seen? chris: three or four weeks ago, we started raising cash because things had some back -- come back so quickly. we only on about 15 to 20 stocks. we are sitting on about 25 to 30% cash and we are waiting. we think there will be better opportunities ahead then there are right now. scarlet: prices have changed a

lot, but have conditions changed? when you think about it, central banks are still very much in a wait-and-see mode. china has gone back to prior closing -- prioritizing growth above reform. chris: i would say they are marginally worse than they were a few weeks ago. the rebound was because folks thought that we were dropping in terms of emerging markets. the pmi reports at the beginning of the month seemed relatively weaker than we thought. nobody can call recession. we just think that there is a meaningful chance of one so why russian right now. when he only own 20 stocks, you target very carefully. alix: you like energy. we spoke last week that you like devon. you also like refiners. going back to the wti brent spread. the oil prices kind of around zero.

chris: i think that story is over, but refiners have had good stocks before 20 tell for 2013. we do not like the refiners any longer because we are very summer season the starting already that the inventory numbers for gasoline are starting so high. they added to capacity and is basically too much productive capacity. like his long-term stocks are even to be integrated. scarlet: let's talk about financials. if you look at them, their performance relative to the s&p 500, they just cannot seem to catch a break. we'll cut a chart that illustrates when the line goes up, you can see that financials are outperforming relatively to the broader market. they cannot hold to any performance. they have just rolled over. what part of the first quarter results made them more attractive to you but less

attractive to the broader market? chris: first of all, i love coming on with the idea of you guys going what are you doing those? that means we are barking up the right tree because you are reflecting consensus. the consensus had also sold these stocks off. that is one of the things we find attractive. we think the reason for their underperformance is that investors are fighting the last war. they have vivid memories of 2008-2009 where financials not only had earnings go down that were in trouble of even existing the next year. we do not think that is a problem anymore. we think that memory is hitting the stocks too hard. when you buy a stock like morgan stanley or goldman sachs at 80% or 70% of their liquidation value, we think that is a great bargain if you have the stomach to hold it either through a recession. if there is not a recession, we will make the money soon. scarlet: are you looking at these banks as utilities are growth places? chris: there's no question at

their worst business model than five years ago, but every business has a price for fo. for name brand like morgan stanley, name recognition is valuable. alix: what names are you liking now? chris: we like chevron a lot. these guys have really long lifetimes. -- cap x lifetimes. that will be coming to an end, but it will produce for much longer than these shale places. these really expensive products that exxon and chevron undoing, they have spent the money. the oil is going to come so they can lower their and make money at 40 or $50 oil for a long time to come. scarlet: thanks so much for joining us. alix: still ahead, is there hope for apple with the iphone seven? we will discuss with one analyst who says yes. that is next. ♪

scarlet: this is "bloomberg markets." apple giving investors a wild ride, snapping it's a day slide. 6.83%, youmbled at can see there is a trough that the stock is reached. the biggest company still seems to spell serious decline. let us go now to abigail doolittle at the nasdaq looking at apple from a technical perspective. nowail: apple is down low nine for the last 10 days. lots of news out on apple, including the announcement that the company is planning big changes for 20 year -- it's one year streaming service.

apple faces a daunting task to boost iphone sales in india. that at goes and away the companies very disappointing march quarter report last week that you alluded to, plus a below consensus june quarter consensus guide. it is what people are calling stocksk iphone sales to down more than 10% after those results. lots of volatility for apple. draw.quite a what are some well-known investors doing who are positive on apple? abigail: david einhorn of greenlight capital, a well-known hedge fund manager, says that greenlight capital continues to hold apple and he she's "amend this value -- tremendous value in the brand." buyers are supporting and defending the shares of apple, suggesting investors out there who do like apple. the question is whether or not the buyers at this point like apple enough to send the stock back up into a range or whether or not they will grow tired after strong selling pressure.

if it is supported by perhaps the gas found out of those results, the possible exhaustion gap saying that apple could trade lower at some point in the future. scarlet: abigail doolittle, thank you so much for that set up on apple could alix. alix: despite all the negativity out there, there may be growing interest for the yet to be released iphone seven. according to a new survey from ubs, 40% of respondents in the u.s. were somewhat likely and very likely to buy the device. 55% in china versus 25% in the u.k.. the likelihood of buying and seven in those three countries. and analyst joins us now from ubs's office in new york. he has a buy rating and a price target of $125. >> i think investors are questioning whether apple's reached a new level of maturity.

in the last 6-12 months, we have seen disappointments in terms of upgrades. of 6000 consumers in five countries suggest that the iphone seven is likely to see a great demand better than the s, but not a strong was the six. we are thinking 5%-10%. the days of 20% and 30% growth are gone by, but we do not think it is necessarily peak iphone . scarlet: do we know anything about the iphone seven yet? do we know what the features are? dualn: there's talk of a camera, but it does not appear on the surface to have dramatic changes, like the six that gave you the big screen phone. let's say it does not have significant new features. is there enough pent-up demand to see people moving? my guess is there probably is.

i would like to see real future differentiation. we do not think that is likely, but there are still 200 million iphone users who have not gone to a big screen yet. we do think that potentially could provide some growth in fiscal 17. scarlet: including alix steel. alix: my hands are too small to have a big screen. i do not know what i'm going to do. what kind of price and upgrade cycle do you think is factored in right now and apple stock's price? steven: probably not too much. the apple stock price is not discounted too much good news. you are probably looking at flat or slightly down growth in fiscal 2017. what you should be looking at is the se. it is a great upgrade for those who have the five seed and it's relatively new technology. it will not so much attract new people in india. ,t is still too extensive but a third of the apple bases on the four inch format.

that contributes to some potential growth in fiscal 2017 . scarlet: another big story was carl icahn has exited his position and apple. is it because he cannot get what he wants? abigail: he made $2 billion, which is not bad. steven: it was maybe not as much as he wanted. he said if the value apple as a pure annuity play what cosco, it would be worth over $200. who knows for sure why he really took the position down, but he did mention china. in china, revenue was down 26% last quarter for apple. china is two thirds of apple's growth. if problems continue to occur in china, it's going to be difficult for the stocks to dramatically rebounde. alix: as the peak iphone theme gains traction, do you think it goes the way of pc makers that lose relevance? steven: in our smartphone

survey, we asked the question if the smartphone is going the way of the pc? we do not think so yet. the pc is seeing multi-your declines, even double-digit declines. we are looking for the market to grow 3% this year. look outl be down, but five years, and that is certainly possible. there is still 40%-50% of the world that does not have a smartphone. unfortunately, most of those people cannot afford an iphone today. scarlet: coming up, it's our mystery stock of the day and it might be better called a blind date. a heart rate.ing alix: match.com. ♪

import. this is something that happened in the united states 100 years ago. president hoover proposed the same policies, to tax people and limit the efforts of corporations to invest abroad to keep themselves competitive. the end result was depression. the depression of 1929 was the result of those policies. it is rhetoric for now and it is all hypothetical. is it government paying too much attention to that and not enough to issues going on in its own backyard? : in mexico, we think it is substance, so we better watch out and worry. that is why i have been telling people to wake up. he is a false prophet and he is

we are seeing stocks like schlumberger and anadarko pullback. we see a sharp selloff in other materials related companies, part of that due to a mammoth lawsuit being filed against the hp over the bursting of a dam in that country that led to the death of 19 people. we see the stock reacting there after we see weakness and commodities. surprise,ities, no are holding up. julie: that is the group that is the standout. some of the movers we are watching and utilities, natural are bucking the trend we have seen in energy and oil prices, up by better than 2%. a cooler out work -- cooler outlook.

sweeney.ng in paul there were all these concerns about cord cutting. are they showing up in the results? l: the most recent results suggest that it is something that will not up and the business overnight. seen from cable companies, like comcast, adding video subscribers in the last two quarters. it is kind of like a mixed bag. cbs and time warner reports of early death really strong results. affiliates continue to be a strong story. is it all about sports? paul: it is all across the board. in terms of advertising, that has been a real pickup in the

last three quarters a national ad spending. timing is very good. and ratings, while they are down across the board for most of the networks, cbs is probably down the least and they were able to not -- to monetize that with advertisers. the folks who are tend not to switch out of traditional networks and go into perhaps skinny bundles. the ceo and chairman of cbs spoke with david of about networks pricing plan. we live in a 180-channel universe, which a lot of people do not want to pay for. so the skinny bundles will come more and more important on a lower price point. and people will get only the channels they want. complete 180 is a from what these network executives were say two years ago. it is all or nothing.

paul: reality is really dawning on them as they see the numbers. their consumers are consuming more and more content outside of the traditional pay-tv bundle, whether it is netflix, which still sees huge subscriber growth. hbo is having some success. these media companies are starting to change the tune a little bit as they adapt to what is in fact a changing environment where consumers are consuming media differently than they did in the past. the challenge for these media companies is, no matter how they distribute their content, they have to get paid. , ever since ago disney reported that terrible quarter, it seemed like the death of media companies. where we now? is the demise of the traditional pay-tv bundle on which all the media companies

depend so much, will that be a quick klein or a gradual play -- a quick decline or a gradual play overuse? -- over years? the companies that have ownership of broadband, like comcast, have a better position because they benefit either way. paul: right. with their traditional cable business, they are in fact adding begin subscribers. that seems to be stabilizing. but the real growth part of the comcast, traditional comcast business has been their high-speed internet subscriber business. that continues to add subscribers and continues to to be a greatnues growth story in terms of cash flow. scarlet: i was at the milken global institute -- look at institute global conflict -- the milken institute global conference.

how much more can these networks pay for it? he says he does not believe these are maxed out yet. is there any indication from the network side that perhaps they are not willing to pay that much more? paul: every family said that in the past, they end up paying more and rates go through the roof. is we seeppening now consumers leave some of those traditional big networks, like espn, fox sports, the big networks that have been able to afford these ever-increasing rates. those businesses have declining subscribers, their ability to a these ever-increasing rates might impact the rates going forward. which impacts obviously the leagues and ultimately the players. alix: clearly, we don't have the money to pay guys. sorry. thanks so much. scarlet: a wildfire racing

business but that may start to stabilize. analysts have been estimating a loss of three cents a share. gross merchandise sales is still slowing. up 18%. it was up 21% require quarters -- the prior quarters. if you look at how the shares have done since the ipo, you can see they have been sliding pretty steadily. as we looked at how the stock is doing in today's session with hours, the after stock rose as much as 19%. so it has been coming down from those levels. other earnings related movers -- moversncludes

ones. but there are a hundred 60 online lenders. so it is a big space. it is financial technology and encompasses a lot of things. space, online lending, was really thought to be an area where the banks were going to be threatened by these new upstart connectingbasically borrowers with lenders, with investors, peer-to-peer. thee, it is reminiscent of original internet boom. obviously, there are great ideas, disruptive, transformational technology. ae problem is there is this rush of companies created to do

it. it is unclear if the first movers, the first to go public, they are going to be the winners. it will definitely change things going forward. but there is so much interest in it right now that it is hard to determine who the winners will be. scarlet: for companies like on deck and lending club, publicly traded, what is the challenge? paul: it is peer-to-peer. peers on the borrowing side are still strong. on deck was up 37% year-over-year. it's on the other side, the other peers, the investors who buy these loans where the concern is concentrated. on deck was only able to sell about a quarter or 20 presets destiny 6% of what they originated, which is a lot less onn what people expected -- deck was only able to sell about

what they originated, which is a lot less than what people expected. they originate a loan and sell for a gain of 5% to 7%. if they keep them on their books, it is more risky. to the concern of the credit cycle. especially the first quarter. it is hard to say this was just a blip. markets everywhere were sort of risk off everywhere. it is easy to see investors on the other end being skittish for this quarter. whether it is a longer-term problem, we will have to see in future quarters. scarlet: are any of these publicly traded companies profitable? paul: the revenue growth or is i had been astounding. that has flattened. on deck was about 11%. lending club report in a few days. we'll find out from them. the basically near that

alix: this is "bloomberg markets." a financial joe to -- a financial jolt heard around the world. we spoke with an economics professor at stanford university, specializing in japanese financial systems. we asked him if he thinks the

negative interest for policy will work. >> the negative interest rate led to the reduction of the interest rate. the yield curve has moved down. and the mortgage rate has been dropping as well. so it's possible that these rate changes will lead to a change in people's behavior, say, more mortgage borrowing were companies reducing their cash balance or deposit balance. amtt: -- matt: at what point with the boj say this is not enough? how long would they wait to see the results of the negative interest rate policy? takeo: so far, the interest rate has come down and it seems to have stabilized. so now i think they will give the market a chance or the people a chance to change their behavior for a couple of months

at least. how much needs to be done on the physical side? one view is that there's only so much the boj can do. there needs to be more done on the fiscal side. avoid hiking taxes. do you think that is correct? do both sides need to work together? or kent rothe get all -- or can kuroda do it on his own? probably more importantly, the japanese government should be serious about the structural reform with -- which increases the potential growth rate in the future. in addition to bank of japan going into negative rates, one thing that has been extraordinary about the boj stimulus is its purchase of etf's. -- there isy great a great report about how it will be the top 10 shareholder in naked to 25 companies due to its open -- ownership of these

equity etf's. -- ou see o: i think it will happen on both sides. if the negative interest rates he .1%, if itt is not working, it is possible they will go into more negative region. and at the same time, i believe they will expand the etf-buying activity as well. joe: what about the yen? there is concern that, if it hits a certain level, that might be the point at which the boj is forced to intervene. how much anxiety is it causing the bank? takeo: i think a lot. the exchange rate is influenced by the future expectation of the inflation rate.

even though the boj is not targeting the exchange rate, but it is an important index they are looking at. is joeow joining us weisenthal. everyone is so accustomed to the boj surprising people, that when there is nothing, there is a shock in the markets. joe: he made a great point. if you want to see if negative rates are working, you cannot immediately do something more the next meeting. you have to wait. and if they are working, that gives you some insight. it makes a lot of sense. alix: today, we will talking about another eco-fundamental, inflation. chart. a great tips etf is what you buy when you want to buy inflation.

it finally looks like there are signs in the market that people think inflation might be coming and want to protect against it in another sign is derivatives, which protect against inflation, are getting a lot cheaper. but are we actually want to see it in the data? market versus events think it might be coming. scarlet: we will be asking that question later on today to the chief international economist. we will be getting his take later on. alix: coming up next hour, bill gross says the next step in big on extremist efforts may be helicopter money.
