12:33 pm
>> what did you miss? omaha -- all eyes were on apple for the biggest product launch in a decade. here is tim cook when speaking about the iphone 10. tim: iphone 10, the most vast iphone we ever made. incredible new design, true depth camera system and the more powerful technologies than we ever put in an iphone before. it really is the future of the smartphone. more, principal analyst at forrester research joins us now. great to have you on the show. as far as leaks concerning these products, we have pretty much all the details. more announcements particularly on the iphone 10. there were ahink lot of surprises given the rumors in the market. certainly bringing out first, it was a head fake.
12:34 pm
coming.new it was joe: in terms of sales, obviously every time a throw to new thing and they have a big number, are people going to pay for it, how confident are you that this will be a big hit? >> i think it will be a big hit. we question this every time they, with the device and the price goes up. i do not think consumers have to have the next technology today, but by the time the price comes down, consumers are very ready. i think we will see good sales in this holiday season in the next couple of years as well. joe: one thing people's attention, the use of facial interaction, the fastow unlock. the face manipulation features. is this the start of something new about how people interact with mobile devices? >> it is easier to unlock the
12:35 pm
device through facial recognition as opposed to pick up the phone and touching it. i think we are a new and fun and innovative way for people to communicate with one another. will have a lot of fun with the camera. i think people will buy this just for the capability to do portrait selfies alone. >> all the details everyone is excited about are on the iphone 10. be just the latest iteration of the existing iphone. does this mean the iphone 10 will be the new standard that will need to be updated every cycle? >> i think it will be like previous cycles where consumers are updating their phones about every two years. i think we are still going to continue to see the trend. look at another big announcement, putting the artificial intelligence chip into the phone. the screen is bigger, it is brighter, and all of that will appeal to consumers. what i think consumers will appreciate this with the ai does
12:36 pm
for them. changes will be subtle and will happen over time but we will back and we want not noticed today but we will look back and say cannot believe it was so into mania two years ago. it is such a better experience today. >> a lot of focus is on how the phone is adapted to augment reality on the focus that the company itself is putting on that in particular. they talked around that with snapchat and the work they have .een doing here what did you make of that? is this a pivot point for apple in terms of the augmented reality offering? >> i think i'm the one hand, we could debate who is further ahead but doing so helps apple keep pace with facebook and google and other big giants here on the west coast. i think what we saw was what was expected. how we communicate with friends and family, and it is essential platform for apple and to attract those developers in that revenue, so to speak. and it will be interesting if it
12:37 pm
is in more media gaming and communication. not just the iphone. but the reveal of the new apple watch. let's listen to what was said about that. >> last year, we told you the apple watch had already become the number two watch in the world. today, i am thrilled to tell you, the apple watch is now the number one watch in the world. [applause] >> the number one in its market. the latest version will have its cellular connection i will not be tethered to the iphone. do you wonder whether the new generation of apple watch will displace some demand for smartphones or iphones? i do not know it will displace demand for smartphones but it will help apple make the case that it is not just a luxury item or nice to have but something that is more essential.
12:38 pm
i believe what apple is doing is building on a strength, as the watch, the fitness and health care device, but when they do things like unlock or untethered it from the phone, the voice is better come we can stream music, communicate on the device and we are starting to see killer applications the watch will have to have for this to become eddie -- a device that is essential for me and not just a device to have to that will help drive sales. joe: it still feels like there are watch people and people not watch people, who may not be inclined to wear an apple watch. that i maygesting have to get an apple watch at some point, though i am not inclined to where the apple watch at all. >> especially with the watch, it is something to experience. when you're listening to music, it becomes my identity device. out paying for things, on a jog, i can pay for stuff on the way home without taking it with me. it is a magical expense.
12:39 pm
they upgraded the apple tv. will they make a stronger play for the so-called connected home? right now, a lot of anxiety about amazon running away with this area. how competitive and how much is apple really out fighting back there? >> so i think it does help with that. if we look at where apple sales come from, it is still primarily iphones. the future growth will depend to some extent on the products for the ecosystem. things like the tv on the watch all help but we look forward and apple is more dependent on the ecosystem of partners and for services as well. it is much more compelling for me as a consumer to pay $20 for myic if it is on my watch, tv, my home pot, other devices at home.
12:40 pm
>> what about content generation here from app? can we just set that aside given all the announcements we had particularly on the hard where front? that will be critical. absolutelyis crippled -- critical to a great experience i have with the devices. i agree with you. i think what we did here today is live sports. it is the thing everyone points to. we thought, why can't i cut the cord. it is live sports. we do not have to have a cable subscription to get live sports. also the offer of a 80 movies and tv just ok is a generous one. >> thanks to julie, and spoke analyst and the latest on apple from california. coming up, mexico's premise or says the company will likely expand the largest annual oil hedge next year.
12:43 pm
scarlet: mexico will expanded 2018 according to the finance minister. it does this with a small group of investment banks each year in what is considered wall street's's largest and most secretive annual hedge. meeting in new york today to speak with investors, he met exclusively with our investor bureau chief. basically just a couple. it is something we have issued for the last almost 16 years now.
12:44 pm
given that now, that location, it is a natural consequence, in a concept, we can review jointly with the market, with the world bank. both location and magnitude actually trigger the bond which would be a payment to mexico. of the epicenter. information will be undercover. and in our territory, that would be covered as well. >> so you are helpful. >> we are purity call out both, fors important recordkeeping, and now that we actually have an impact, one needs to look at the numbers more carefully, and that is why we put in what the market would have, discerning whether or not the chigger is therefore met.
12:45 pm
it would be the second time we used it. we've -- the her can also trigger the catastrophic -- our picture in terms of dealing with disasters in mexico, because it adds an element with insurance, and therefore the is to facey year these disasters are from a financial perspective, mexico as well set. our riske manage disaster contingencies. >> another reason every year, mesko's finances, you to one of the biggest commodity hedges and the planet. are you almost done with doing the program for 2018 and what kind can you share? >> there are three elements to that, a buffer in the economic
12:46 pm
package. first is the fact that more and more, we use the information to set the limit that would put forth to congress. that provides a certain level of certainty. 46, roughly where futures would have the price on average last year. that gives us an element of certainty. another is relatively recent. we established within the budget have a fundus to that is there in case of the budgetary income. pesos.180 billion it is a good amount to have. it allows us more flexibility when we access the market in terms of prices to look at so the combination of the two, we're ing the market,
12:47 pm
the process of finishing the program. the combination of the fund. it puts it in the budget. the set program, 81st -- 80%, 95. >> it is a large program. once we do it every year, when completely done, we'll get the full details but we fire it off so we are confident in saying $46 coverage, have good support. years,ared to previous one thing that is different for mexico now is gasoline prices are liberalized. imply you have to increase a little bit the volume
12:48 pm
that you have to protect your rates? there is that element to it in terms of looking at how much we would cover, but both because the platform is smaller, to what we saw on the past, the degree old revenuesely on is that much decreased. it sensitivity to the price, has been reduced. inis to be marginally higher terms of the fact that we don't have the natural coverage be used to have because now our energy balance is pretty much in tune with we almost export as much as we import. it is also true the margin to exposed to the price of oil has been dramatically reduced as well. in 2012, about 37% of revenues
12:49 pm
were related. the number went down to 16. beh those factors, it would right to assume the cause was lower than the previous year. again,milar amount, but at this stage, i think from the , 46pective of the debate seems reasonable mostly because we are able to cover it well in the market fund, and it is very much in tune with what the market expected. was a mess can finance mr. speaking exclusively to bloomberg in new york. >> time for a look at some of the biggest business stories in the news right now. j.p. morgan chase, the chief executive officer jamie dimon spoke at an investor conference in new york today. he highlighted bitcoin. >> you cannot have a business

12:53 pm
scarlet: when picking stocks, go big or go home according to oppenheimer funds with equity strategy team. the lead equity strategist said they are set to extend years of gains relative to small caps. the chart shows the ratio between the s&p 500 and the brussels 2000, a small cap -- mark. since his 30 year low in march of 2014, you can see the ratio has recovered about 13% through the end of last week. the ralliesclearly,
12:54 pm
last a number of years. there is still more room to go. the hit -- if history is any indication, the current wave of it cap outperformance could last at least two more years. how thest looking at index has done so far this year. about 11%. russell is gaining by 5%. you have seen the boost but it will continue. >> interesting and relative to what we have seen, a significant upside potential there. what about what is going on in europe? despiteseen a selloff all of the optimism we saw a earlier in the year. relationship we have seen, pretty much in the reflation trade, the light wind is showing you what is going on with the european cyclicals here versus defensive. you can see the relative outperformance is 77th percentage points here today. a blue line is showing you what is going on with the generic 10 year yield. despite the part we saw earlier
12:55 pm
this year, you can see pretty much flatlined since december of the back end of last year. a number of analysts are coming out and saying we continue to see the cyclicals outperforming here. watch the autos, which amuses me because if we look at what mario he suddenly pushes back on suggesting they have given any clarity at least until december on the retracting qe, but also the strength of the euro we have seen is also a factor and inflation expectations are below where they were when they announced qe. >> it is a great chart and of course similar to the u.s. where there are a lot of reasons to think yields would have been hired where they are the same in germany. you look at that outperformance. it is not as intuitive why rates are as low as they are. here is something that could theoretically be a precursor to hire rates this morning. business optimism survey. it is one of my favorite
12:56 pm
economic releases where they ask small businesses all kinds of questions about the economy. check out the white line. they asked them, are you planning on doing more capital expenditures? the percentage of small businesses who say they are, 32%, the highest since 2006. so long in this recovery, people have asked where is the is this investment. there you have it here the blue line, we of course they do see the survey turned chart numbers but the headline small business optimism. right after the election. people in the survey tend to be more conservative, and they were excited donald trump one. -- won. on taxes orlan anything specific, the optimism boost of small business leaders that we saw after the election has held up. interesting stuff with the survey. tommy's to say it was really an optimist -- a pessimism

1:03 pm
year there. >> what was the yield on that? >> forgot to look it up. > oh no! >> believe it or not, people aren't demanding into much. >> suits going on in the currency -- i want to show you what's going on in sterling as well. and inflation data -- talking about this yesterday. certainly in the last 15 months, feeding into something else -- we have obviously had people today ranting about that coin. the bank of merrill lynch also sang that this is the most crowded trade in the financial markets. there's lots of increases this year. in gold you how much
1:04 pm
you have to buy one bitcoin in this chart. let's move on. this with me while i pull one up and try to be organized today. this is looking at china. there been a three-day decline. 7% over the last three days. doesn't sound very exciting but what you are seeing in that they wanted stability ahead of the communist party meeting -- this fall. they have removed the 20% reserve for training at the current form, so that makes it less expensive. that's one to watch. you can see that. you think there's a pickup gain in dollar-one in the last few days -- there is a gain in the last two days. >> this one gaining under one half of a percent. gold flats on the day.

1:06 pm
that has been disproven. i think what's actually happening is a continuation of working throughout this year. the fact -- past five days has been helping material financials. this is a trade, it is come back on. if you look at the market, seems like there was a brief pause. investors weighed all these risks that were overhanging for some time. they're in general flows leaving stocks. --. equities had been left and into the rest of the world, continuing to have this. there were buyers -- >> talk to us about plans. we were talking about this a few weeks ago, everyone suggesting that when you have this pushing 2-0, we were like, why are they defying gravity here? there is that divergence that we were talking about for 10 year
1:07 pm
yields in particular. financials are defying gravity. >> defying gravity has been the story since the election. we pointed this out back in march when the gridlock in the sea was not going anywhere. trump was getting off to a rough >> bank of america, jp morgan -- a lot of these despite this part, despite the fact that the ceo cleared it. this basically said that we will expect lower things in the third-quarter yield year. the market still picked up perhaps from higher changes. >> speaking of defying gravity, massive curves and's the start of the year have not heard banks at all. the last few days -- obviously yesterday was a big risk on move day a little it.
1:08 pm
let's hope it's still a continuation. isn't just a story about relief? or is it something more going on? oliver: let me just a few of those points with charts. this one is the reticence on behalf of investors in the market. i'm looking at the total put open interest before call open interest ratio. amusing ratio a nap -- analysis on bloomberg grr . basically, there are more investors interested in this part. ,ou take this back five years this is the one we have seen in 2015, that ratio heading investors, all trying to get a little bit of protection on the downside. you look at the downside market obviously, that's not the case. there is willingness to jump back in. investors come back -- let's come back into the terminal. particular, they are not going chart -- a lot of different stocks, they are lying stocks
1:09 pm
that are growing. here's the relationship, a story here. stuff is always overplayed apparently, and to an extent it probably is. --re's a big groep between gap between growth and falling stocks here though. it's pretty astounding. the ranchers incredible. i think investors come to the market for one reason: they need this to return and they can't get it anywhere else. thehe past five days gosar ones that have been gaining. lexus's office entry bond. >> talk to us a little bit about the short positioning here. >> it has been a pretty interesting ride. what's the best way to characterize the chart -- the well, in the markets high, you see some sort stocks go down. that's what we see here.
1:10 pm
-- some short stocks go down. this one corrected as the markets slowed down last month. this is a normalized chart right here. this means that a short stock is dutch s&pe us and the 500 index. not a great story for some of these companies, despite a few moments throughout this year in which it has paid off. ofht now it's just a matter shortening the us stocks, but also, when it comes down to it, companies, people that would pay for them. >> as always oliver renick, thank you. >> coming up, all eyes on cupertino state to see what apple's future products have in store. does the launch live up to the hype, and what will happen in the future? we will discuss this next.
