is not enough to get the market to go a lot higher after the huge rally we have already seen? given that last year we had zero nd thisin this year -- a year at another lowering of guidance. as we hear earnings estimate start to come down, that could be a catalyst for the market romaine: to pull back. romaine:there is that phrase about the market staying irrational longer than folks stay solvent. the dow down on the day but you see the s&p 500 and the nasdaq climbing back into the green. the s&p 500 for the week up about 1.5%. nvidia at the top about 15% on the week but you have commute occasions, expedia, hass, not quite the typical names you'd see the top of the leaderboard for a weekly gain. >> ibm leading that dow lower. , we beenar, walgreens

wanting that big walgreens boost buyout. article one of the worst performers. 500 gaining in that late rally over the last 20 minutes or so. pushing into the green. all three indexes are up by at least 1%. the nasdaq leading the way. let's check in with our reporters across the different asset classes to see what they've been monitoring as we head towards the close. get us started. euros downook at the on the day but also going into its second weekly decline, that is hitting the lowest point since 2017. positive on the day. thats declining with weekly decline is crucial. some analysts worrying maybe this could be a signal of the year hitting parity with the dollar with something we haven't seen really coming off concerns around economic growth in europe but also some ecb easing. the key is going into next week

which that data suggests we will watch the consumer confidence data as well as manufacturing pmi's. was tracking gold prices and coronavirus concerns are sending gold prices higher. investors are concerned how deadly virus may impact global growth and even though some investors bought risk assets. they are still buying some safe havens. other safe haven investments. exchange traded funds are spending the record high for the same coronavirus concern. otheralth management said persistent global and geopolitical risk are also driving gold prices higher today. >> as we head into the weekend we are about 4/5 of the way through the earnings reporting season. so far, so good. s&p 500 companies are beating analyst estimates by about 5.5%. that's a decent uptick from the previous quarter which was about

4.6% and it beats a pretty widespread, 10 of 11 industry groups have beaten real estate is the only one that hasn't. the big question is about the outlooks and is this chart shows, what this shows is it tracks the number of company outlooks that are above analyst estimates distracted -- moreacted by those companies are reporting estimates for -- forecast below analyst estimates. that is not exactly unusual for this time of year and neither is it more pronounced than some of the previous years. the question is a lot of companies had warned about earnings because of the effect of the coronavirus. not a lot of companies have put firm numbers on what the damage will be, some even withdrawing their outlooks completely, so romaine, still too early to put numbers on exactly how much damage will be caused by the

coronavirus. romaine: our thanks to mike. and everyone behind the scenes on our markets team. still with us. chief market strategist and around the desk in new york, bloomberg news cross-ice at reporter katie. i want to go back to you. i want to talk about the weekend currency and affects here. we contingency dollar strength. we had a pretty remarkable week for the euros which continue to not be able to find any sort of support. do you see these trends that we've seen in the fx market lasting? because on ay longer-term basis, the way things are going i do think that trend will continue. it sure seems to be that way. however we are seeing in sentiment and a technical indicator telling us that both the dollars getting right for reversal lower and the you're getting right for a nice little bounce. i'm not talking about two or

three days. some the last for a couple of weeks. when you look at the relative strength index getting very overbought, very oversold on the you're a. also look at the futures traders. the daily sentiment index. bullishness almost future traders for the euros was down 8% last night and -- with the year remaining low it could be even lower after tonight. the dollars up on was 90%. it one above 90 recently. everybody is on one side of this right now at least on a short-term basis. it be surprised if we saw a reversal that lasted for a couple of weeks which would catch some people off guard. i think short-term traders want to keep that in mind as we move through the first quarter. >> already shaking things off as we go into a long holiday, what we looking for next week? what are the big economic indicators and what are the things that might offset some complacency in the market? >> if you rewind to last month

we have really strong numbers and you saw that ripple through the market. home builders had a great run after that. it will be interesting we've seen a lot of interest in mortgage backed securities, we've seen interesting utilities , so perhaps if we get health -- starts that's a surprise, it may add that extra leg to that rally we've seen so far because the s&p utility sector had a great week. it's close to a record high. a great run00 has this year which is interesting because you had a story about one the investors multifactor etf last week really changes its approach to the market, a different bet on what can lead. talk us through what it's thinking -- what it changed its position to and what that's about the broader risk appetite out there. >> is a fascinating etf.

and the way based it determines its holdings is looking at global risk appetite and economic indicators. i talked with the portfolio managers and they said the only thing that changed between january and february was the fact risk asset -- risk appetite soured and you can pin that directly on the coronavirus. previously where it had been investing in smaller companies and companies with evaluations, now it's looking for safety, it's looking at low momentum, quality stock and that's again because of the fears the virus will drag down global growth. >> how you feel about global equities in this case? at one point to they become a relative value trade beyond the fears everyone has about the markets abroad right now? >> it's funny because one of the things and i was saying about a week or so ago if you think the

coronavirus is going to amount to nothing, china would be where you want to be because there market is sold off quite a bit. a lot more than the u.s. market. the problem as it bounced back a lot more in recent weeks -- the last week or so. so i think it will -- the key thing right now is you have a market that's quite overvalued in the u.s. and so you want to set up, be prepared in advance. in the emerging markets is a lot of risk right now. but once we clear -- hopefully we clear the situation the coronavirus. it will be a lot of potential there. so if you have what you set up whether the countries, not just abroad eem etf. certain companies in the emerging-market area that could benefit the most, i think they will bounce back much more because how much could bounce back. ifyou have those in advance, the market sees another downdraft, you will be able to

pick up some things. >> a lot of people when they look at the u.s., they look at it from a relative basis. so what you are seeing overseas, when you look at that european data we got this morning on gdp into look at some the other concerns there. it makes it hard to say let's shift over now outside of the u.s. only still have that differential that continues to favor the u.s. side. >> there is no question. one of the things and we noticed this week this gdp data out of europe and germany, it's disappointing. data has been disappointing there and yet you have the germany -- hitting all-time highs. so if there's anything the complacency is even more in europe than it is here. the two areasause that seem to be the least affected by potential of the coronavirus, they are the ones

that could be -- have the biggest problems. >> do these fixed income investors have some relief when you look forward into the rest of springtime? >> it depends on how you fight -- defined relief. there's not a lot of impetus for yields to go higher from here. you do have a long-term position lower for longer yield, you're probably looking at a pretty good few months. we will see how long these coronavirus fears last, whether that does lead into the economy because then we might finally see that reflation trade that a lot of big bond funds of latched onto to start 2020. >> thank you so much. cross set up order along with matt mele. that does it for the closing bell. is up next.iss this is bloomberg. ♪

hong kong on friday confirming one employee was put in placed under quarantine after a suspected case there for coronavirus. we do have a hong kong situation where the confirmed number of cases has ticked up to at least 53 the government here seeming to cushion against that impact. for tourism, for cash, you see the economy under pressure. 99%d clinch by as much as on yearly basis. romaine: let's talk about some of the supply disruptions we've been seeing. fiat chrysler suspending production that an assembly plant in serbia. this the first european body -- auto plant was seen affected by the virus. that continues reverberations across the auto space.

fiat chrysler joining what we are seeing with their operations being affected as we have ford feeling the pain. it's looking to extend for production staff in china. this as it's trying to get its operations online february 24. so far the operations outside of china remain unaffected but a quick word on volkswagen feeling the pain there as it stays closed through this week. does not bold well for car sales given the output seeing another setback. >> what are you looking for in terms of how hong kong and china respond this weekend. it will be a long weekend in the u.s. so investors are keeping their eye on potential headlines and potential negative headlines. what are things you are keeping an ion there? >> we are expecting more measures from authorities in china. for example there's reports they

may be less strict when enforcing a quota on property beated loans which could targeted measures to shore up lending with potential further cuts to the rrr and next week the pboc could further lower the lowest crime rates paid -- monterey policy taking the lead here and fiscal policy taking the weight of that burden as well. we could essentially see one being announced as early as march. for comparison when it comes to what that number could be like. 2008, chinaof allocated some $586 billion. you -- is it getting better or is it getting worse? >> it's hard to say. when you take a look at the data coming out of china which has been a bit of a head scratcher given the adjustment we saw with the new methodology to identify

cases, on friday, china did affirm that was a one-time increase. we did see a lowering of the reported cases and the death toll given a double count was identified. so you do have the total number of different cases creeping up towards 64,000 and the death toll at 1380. it's hard to save the peak is anytime soon. >> sophie reporting from hong kong. coming up, president trump gaining support from some unlikely places. why some silicon valleys billion years are finding the best way to take on amazon might be a donation to the president's reelection campaign. those details next. this is bloomberg. ♪

silicon valley certainly is an a president and so who's been a victim passionist -- been a big antagonist of jeff bezos. >> is this all about just winning contract from the government or is this something bigger that silicon valley wants here for larry ellison and peter thiel to be siding with president trump. to get to it's hard one reason somebody like larry decides to host a fundraiser for trump. certainly he is held fundraisers for republicans before. he was a supporter of marco rubio last time around in 2016. but certainly oracle has been on this super aggressive campaign to block amazon from winning this jedi defense department crowd contract. and president trump has been a big antagonist in getting amazon that contract to the point where

microsoft won it and now amazon is suing the decision was -- suing saying it was influenced by politics. how was is being received by employees? re-code singy and oracle employees were upset or at least some of them were and that's not surprising. if you look at q4 fundraising numbers for some of the big tech companies come a bernie sanders is getting the most money so this is among the demo -- among the democrats prayed this is a group of employees that is largely liberal, supports democrats and among the democrats supports the sanders war and wing of the -- for the most part. >> the ceos need to be politely pragmatic. apple, alsocook of known as tim apple. in order to make sure he's in

if you have to look at the underlying fundamentals for the u.s. economy, they are pretty good. there is volatility in some of those numbers. all in all the fundamentals of higher income, balance sheets look good. side isnk the consumer holding out. the business side has been week. we had signs of stabilization on the manufacturing side. that's a good thing. notwithstanding today's numbers. that is kind of the way the u.s. economy has been. the consumer side is been driving things. but again that looks like it's stabilizing and expected to pick up. >> has your forecast for growth changed since you submitted in december? >> i think we now have some new risks including the coronavirus so you have to take that into account when you're thinking about growth but right now i'm thinking about risk.

chinact that certainly in and perhaps in asia for the first quarter numbers will be weaker. this spill over to the u.s. economy as well and it remains to be seen by how much and for how long that will persist. in general i'm seeing that is a risk to my forecast. i haven't marked it down because of that. >> have your people been able to put numbers on the risk for the coronavirus? >> it's difficult. usually the private sector numbers that i've seen are based on what was true with the sars epidemic. the world a lot different that it was in 2003. china is a much bigger part of the global economy than it was then. on the other hand china is also a wealthier country than it was then and they've already taken steps to try and limit the fallout as have other countries. very hard to make those comparisons. we are sort of evaluating the number of cases like everyone else other than trying to figure

out how much impact it will have on the u.s. economy. our focus is on the u.s.. >> you mentioned the manufacturing production in january. your district is the heart of manufacturing in this country great what are you hearing from factory owners and workers in your district? >> all in all the manufacturers in our districts are -- they don't see things falling off a cliff at all. they are not worried about recession. on the other hand they don't think things will pick up a lot. coming in, but nothing to write home about. higher or lower. it is steady as she goes. >> the trade deal phase i is not to make a difference in terms of this investment? >> i think it's too early to see. certainly the good thing about the signing of the deal is the uncertainty around trade has gone down but it's too early to evaluate whether we will see it picked up or how much of a pickup in investment because of

the uncertainty. >> wall street is betting you guys are going to cut rates again this year. >> i think as is true whenever we go seeing things, we evaluate the economic information we believe from my district contacts and the data we look at what the financial market signals are telling us as well and then make a judgment about where policy is. last meeting and the chair's remarks and the press conferences that we think policy is in a good place for eight i agree with that. inflation is low, labor markets are strong, the economy appears to be growing at a trend of 2%. and that gives us a baseline to watch and look and evaluate and then we will determine whether policy needs to move one way or another going forward. >> do you see anything that would suggest the need for more

stimulus? >> i think policy is a good place. period wheregood we can evaluate. we will have to decide whether we need to change policy in reaction to that but right now i think the outlook is still good notwithstanding the risk that the coronavirus is posing for us. >> do you believe that inflation is going to hit 2% this year. >> i think inflation will gradually hit 2%. i think probably not until the end of this year or into next year, but nonetheless early numbers will be up over some of the week numbers. but to be sustainably at 3% i think they'll be a gradual uptick as the expansion continues in labor markets remain strong. >> is michael mckee's conversation with loretta mester.

thehe ftc announcing from -- big technnouncing from companies information on hundreds of acquisitions they've made over the last decade. one deal that is seen as a target for regulators is googles .urchase of the mapping app nounwe heard about the s&p -- the announcement it was originally intended to go after smaller acquisitions because

that's how someone was -- like google is eating up the competition around it and dominating other parts of the common --ut now it is >> the s -- they said we will look at the -- because small acquisitions get a green light, it doesn't matter. just do it. when we looked at this we realized it actually hadn't gone a very -- gotten a very strenuous probe from the ftc when it was acquired because it had no revenue in the u.s. at the time. so the whole philosophy was this tech company isn't making any money. clearly it should be fine for competition and now it's one they will be looking at. >> in hindsight you can see the silliness of that. it's interesting the u.s. is behind the curve on this. the u.k. and european regulators have been looking into this as well. what did the u.k. find when they looked into the transaction? let it goso initially

through but there was a second investigation as to what might be going on. although they didn't sort of unwind it. they had less power over the u.s. company as the ftc would. but they did point out a few major things which is waze was going quickly. offer the technology to serious competitor in mapping to google and it had sort of his social network aspect where people were using it and sharing information in ways they weren't and google. in some ways it might've had an advantage and when they went into google it's got -- it got sucked into the behemoth. >> what is a likely outcome of this deeper look into waze? saying we is sort of are looking for information, this isn't -- we are not assuming there is anything if areas that's gone on here.

what i think you are seeing is it's part of a larger move from all branches of government, investigations up from the department of justice, the state level, attorneys general who are collecting a ton of information about big attack and they can really do anything with that. there could be fines, orders about how they are allowed to conduct their business, that kind of thing. cant's easy to say how regulators have overlooked this but at the time that google was wanting to acquire waze, it was facing another esha number of big threats. it wasn't entrenched in social media. as something this he needed to tackle quickly. >> google maps i think that was still essentially the era where we were searching on google maps and hunting those out and bring it into our car when we went to a drive. it wasn't all mobile. they weren't necessarily integrated with the dashboards yet and ways had this huge

mobile following. so they were kind of had the curve in that way and so when google bought them they got a little expertise. and the core app is very popular on mobile now. >> thanks for giving update there. for those of you out there using it, put the phone down. but if you use it to get your airbnb, that company feeling the regulatory heat as well. it's been fighting against regulations in cities across the u.s. seeking to clarify the legal status and protect thousands. mark, blumer now, technology managing editor. i thought the story you guys put out, the number of lawsuits airbnb has either filed themselves or been the subject of has basically exploded over the last year or two. what is actually behind it? what's behind it is a company

but it is a company that realizes they need to change the way things work in certain somes and carve out exceptions in order for their long-term prospects to make sense. this is a company that probably in the coming months will try to list its shares publicly and so they want to be able to show they've got a secure position in some of these big places like new york and boston and elsewhere where they've had challenges from officials, whether their services even legal. >> there's a lot at stake for the company as well. rules on short-term rentals are set locally but they can be cited as precedent by other locales. not just airbnb, that's affected , other companies that do the also keeping a close eye on this. >> right. and they've been the subject of

some of these legal issues in the past, but airbnb is the biggest in many markets including the u.s.. so they have had to kind of take a leading position in taking cities and states to court in order to secure the market for everybody. most of all for themselves. citiesnb versus american is one thing but when you look at all these lawsuits, a guest was burnt at an apartment because the barbecue exploded. some of these are very scary things to happen in an apartment. how much are consumers getting spooked by some of these? story wephasis for the place on some of their battles with cities, but like you said the data shows a whole range of unusual legal cases they are embroiled in. more than 230 which involve casesand hidden camera
