1:35 pm
mcdonald's for me is important but what is on your radar? leslie: thanks for pointing out the currency picture, but what is going to be top of mind this quarter is demand, sales. are we going to receive weakness, signs of people shifting to less expensive menu items? that says something about the economy? jon: i am glad you mentioned menu items. you have highlighted the way by which these restaurant operators have been changing to navigate this tight labor market. we said this with the parent company of all of garden and will be watching it with don's, fewer menu items. leslie: that started during the pandemic. restaurants cutting down the venue quite a bit, 30% or more
1:36 pm
-- the menu quite a bit, 30% or more. restaurants have figured out that makes things easier, lowers costs and consumers do not really miss it. kriti: let us talk about the staffing situation. there was a time when a lot of those rage -- wage increases was in front and center, eating into their earnings. this time around, do we see the same thing -- higher commodity costs, higher wages? is demand going to be the bigger risk and --? leslie: we have heard a lot about commodity, inflation and labor over the industry the past several years. that will be in focus but really what could change is consumer demand. that has held up relatively strong for these chains that take out focused restaurants

1:39 pm
it is a problem with the supply chain as well as travel restrictions or opening up top -- shop restrictions in china. jon: as we watch what happens in china and in the quarter for apple, is there a law that all of corporate america can take away? or are they in their own boat? this is a company that has proven its ability to keep prices high. this is a rare for them to make a change on prices. even the supply chain, apple is good at navigating it. kriti: that is a -- anurag: that is a different equation for apple, but two things to remember and that is the strong dollar. the estimates are not down as much as we would have liked them and to be just on the dollar strength.
1:40 pm
that is a, not the real economics of the business but the strong dollar is going to have an impact, not just for the next quarter but guidance going into the corridor after that. the second thing is because of restrictions in china, we may be having issues about getting the parts, which then the first the sale of certain products, whether it is the iphone or the max -- macs. those are two things people are not really focused on parent kriti: what about services revenue? in peak: times, one major indicator of demand was how many people were going into the stores. what about that services revenue? anurag: in the last quarter,
1:41 pm
they did guide that they are going to include double digits. that is going to the ok, but going forward, we do see some deceleration, largely because they are running into test comparisons. because of the nature of some of these products, we do not expect that to be in the will digits forever. they are trying hard to get tv rights. they are also going to generate from advertising. these streams should help them to get back to that lower double digits in service rates. in the near term, we may see some pressure. kriti: always a pleasure to have you on all things apple. how much more hawkish can the federal reserve get?

1:48 pm
date will go at least to neutral. he will not say consequently may want to stop and look around at that point. the problem is that nobody really knows at this point. economic growth indicators are slowing, except for jobs and that is what you would expect. inflation if it is starting to roll over, maybe you do not have to go as high as 4% to get the economy under control. such a weird time coming out of this pandemic and with the work going on. it is hard for anybody to make an accurate prediction. kriti: the site about the dollar. this defect going to do anything about it? -- is the fed going to do anything about it? mike: the will tell you that they cannot accept by raising interest rates. you use the trade-weighted

1:51 pm
coming off as people shift away from buying goods and shift towards services. jon: putting out the pieces together, the market trying to figure out where the economy lands. it recession -- recessionary worries and floors. walk us through how that plays out for the economy. dana: we think the fed is going to raise rates into restrictive territory, about 3%, for the end of this year, maybe getting to 4% early next year. that means the u.s. economy is going to different to a recession. inmate be shallow and reef but certainly slower growth as the fed is raising interest rates. that will be flanked by stagflationary periods, where you have low growth but high inflation. we are not expecting inflation
1:52 pm
back down to 2% until 2024. kriti: one of the big questions is how much of an impact the dollar will have on company's bottom lines. how worried are you about the undying strength of the dollar? dana: the dollar it makes it less expensive for companies to import things. consumers love buying cheap goods from abroad. that is more negative for companies that have international exposure for companies -- in economies that have weakening currency. it pens on the type of company. kriti: dana peterson of the conference for. a crucial time. we thank you for your insight. tune in for the coverage of the
