5:00 pm
soft shocks where it's preparing the market for its own bond buying bink. bond risks will reduces the duration in the bond portfolio is possibly by a short duration etf. >> that's it for us here. always a pleasure to have you along. >> pleasure to be here. fast money starts right now. >> i'm in new york city times square. i'm melissa lee. let's get straight to the story. fallest for you tonight. apple itunes radio are failing to wow at the developers
5:01 pm
conference. yahoo! western digital all booking gains of more than 20% since the start of 2013. we ask the question tonight is old tech the new trade for 2013? do you stick with it? will it keep working? tim. >> first of all that has to be the explains for getting mr. robot oh. i don't think there's ever a time for that. microsoft is a name people have been watching. it's been running out of gas but what's going on with big old unsexy tech is you're trading at a big discount to the s&p. 20% discount to the s&p. they are paying at three plus dividend and these guys have a lot more cloud momentum in x box, more momentum in pc in terms of windows which has been so beaten down. this is about allocation. this is why there's more room to go. big companies, big market caps. i stay in this trade. >> you like the old and unsexy
5:02 pm
tech names? >> that's how i roll. >> these things started working after most of these names reported disappointing q 1 and 2 guidance. these things have strong balance sheets good dividends but the trades were left for dead. a lot of these names, when you look at intel, microsoft, amat sis koe, yes, they are still cheap and still have a lot of circumstances that led people the get into this group but the trade may be up at this point. >> specific names in which the trade is up? >> listen the pc krchltc supply chain, are you kidding me? when you looked at tim cook and saw the market share growth that they have had in max versus pcs that is not likely to work its way in pcs favor.
5:03 pm
mack is gaining steam. >> i'm old and sexy here. >> how humble. >> i think what happened is people looked for stocks that have underperformed and say where can we get value. they have gone to intel. we'll see na works. i don't think they will at these levels. the name that i think still works though is yahoo! trading around 26 and three quarters. i think you dump that into old tech and remember what jim chain oh, said a couple weeks ago. western dij and c gait were two of these favorites. you can't trade on the back of chain owes but you should have it in the back of your mind. those stocks should go down pretty quickly. the one that sticks out to me like a soar thumb is yahoo! >> these are very plain and simple, these are dividend and purchase stories. that's all there is to it.
5:04 pm
nothing positive has gone on. >> microsoft is growing ten percent a year double what the s&p is doing. >> here's the thing. microsoft happens to be at a decent point in its cycle but look at things like sis koe, intel. it's not that exciting and doesn't justify outperformance versus the overall index. if you are looking for a cyclical play it's more interesting to be in the industrial, those that focus on america. the problem with teches is they have huge exposure around the world and growth rates in general aren't great. if you are just chasing it because of dividends look at the other sectors that chased up on dividends. it didn't end well and i don't think it will end well here if you are paying above market multiples for these names. >> i hear you if you think this is all these guys are doing. these guys are actually the ones that are able to do all that
5:05 pm
great stuff but again grow earnings and be a place where you're getting them advancing into new business again. the cloud penetration for microsoft is far from insignificant. when people saying stocks like -- >> cloud revenue is growing at a rate that exceed the growths of their other business? >> yes. if you can look at structural the productivity gains in mechanic as labor forces come down, microsoft is a big part of that. i look at this and say this is a stock that has gone from 26 to 35 in the last month but this stock is flat in the last decade. >> tim makes great points about the cloud but my fear about the cloud is and you see it sometimes in reports, is it a space that's going to become a
5:06 pm
commodity. as much as microsoft is buying into that you have to wonder -- >> every tech company we are all about the cloud and mobile is a huge opportunity for us. that's the ceo of every tech company. if they're all about the cloud how great of a business could that be. >> oracle has been a massive underperformer. all of these companies are up about 20%. >> you would rather oracle -- >> maybe about half of their sales from the u.s. half from the world. it's been an under performer, it's not a big yielder, only pays less than one percent. june 20 a lot of people are looking at that sis koe report from a couple weeks ago and saying this could be the next big cap tech catalyst. >> lets get straight to the stock of the day, apple hitting lows after the world conference. let's go to brian on the ground there. brian, great to see you.
5:07 pm
>> thanks. >> they basically predicted everything you said in your note friday. tim cook called it the biggest change to mobile software since the iphone launch in 2007. is that true? >> we're calling it extreme makeover ios edition. we would definitely agree. they have a tremendous amount of upgrades. it was frankly a dated inter face. they basically brought it up to android standards from a look and feel standard. a lot of trance loosesy, multi-layering. got rid of the stitching. >> that sounds lame. if you are saying they're updating it to get it back up to android levels that's chasing somebody who may be perceived as eating their lunch. >> the only updates we got from a revenue standpoint was a mack
5:08 pm
book error. six% of the gross profits. from a revenue standpoint relatively disappoint, having said that expectations were low. i think that the upgrade to the operating system is going to be paramount in terms of the importance of maintaining the stickiness of the ecosystem. 85% of the companies gross profit is going to go through refreshes and from a hardware standpoint it will be on the new software and we think the product is going to be tremendous. >> i'm trying to figure out whether you're bullish or bearish. i'm bullish on the services business and the ecosystem. people haven't paid enough attention to the fact that 500 million users are spending millions of dollars a year. this operating system is important but it sounds like you're saying this isn't really enough. >> well we're definitely bullish. we have a 600 target. i would say that today is not
5:09 pm
going to move the needle from a revenue standpoint or a profitability standpoint. at the end of the day this company generates about 180 billion dollars a year a phenomenal amount of top line. nobody else comes close to it. for example ibm and hp do 110. we saw that innovation is alive and well from a operating system perspective at apple and that's going to maintain the user stickiness. >> how can you say that innovation is alive and well frmth i watched that streaming video, man. it was like putting lipstick on a pig. i was nodding off. they're doing things that have been going on in the eeky system for years now. they are chasing and being defensive and i got to tell you when you look at tim cook's performance and johnny doesn't want to take the stage but he'll do saucy video there, i think that the team that they have in place, they are going to be able
5:10 pm
to maintain this existing footprint but it is nothing short of disappointing to me. let me tell you something, i've had all six iphones, man. >> let me ask you a quick question. i know horn cash buy back dividend all catalysts seem to be positive for them and now we're nine months later. september is a long time ago the stock was north of 700. what's the problem with the stocks that's what the folks at home want to know. >> i think the market was down today at the close and so i don't think people were disappointed. i don't think it was obviously a lot of catalyst to move the stock higher. the key is over the next six to nine months can they create an iphone six five inch device to penetrate the international markets and bring the groepth rates up. if they can do that the stock is
5:11 pm
going to be well into the 500, probably approaching 600. that's the key and obviously that wasn't what we were here for today. >> brian, great to speak with you. thanks for your time. brian marshall of isi joining us from the developers conference. brian mentioned being down 60 or 70. that's not the picture if you look at the chart. apple was higher more than a person in the day and finished lower. >> this has never been a catalyst for traders. it's much more interesting for the tech media but for some reason the wall street media went nuts this year. if you look at the last five years' worth of progress in the stock of 30 days following these conferences it's down .97%. when you ask what's wrong with the stock it's simple. out of the last four quarters they have missed twice. it's not consistent and not the same level of growth that there used to be so people have gotten
5:12 pm
accustomed to that and that's where the stock trades. >> we're watching the shares of lululemon. the retailer announcing that christine day will be retiring and that is moving the stock right now. courtney reagan has been listening to the conference call. any details? . moments ago one of the analysts said christine, what are your plans going forward and she said, almost it's business as usual for me. i'm planning on coming to work and focusing on bringing lululemon string results through the end of the year. at least from what she said it doesn't sound like she necessarily has not job lined up just toeing the company line and saying we've done great things. it's time for a new leader to come in. wall street disagreeing, those shares after hours taking a plunge after the company beat on every metric for this first quarter. looking forward for the second quarter topping con kensz
5:13 pm
estimate she tried to say for both eps and revenue. really the reaction is all in the announcement and surprise departure of christine day. she's only 51 and been the company for five and a half mother. >> keep us updated. we'll get details later on in the show. if christine day is saying it's time for a successor to step in that successor should have been in the cards i would think. it wouldn't be a search for a successor. >> it seems odd. the stock is down, what ten percent? >> 13%. >> it's due to the transparency -- >> guys guys -- >> that's exactly the point. it's a buying opportunity. >> 65% of the shares are owned by the top five shareholders. with the stock down ten percent
5:14 pm
it's an interesting knee jerk reaction about her departure. normally you would think there was pressure because of something going on there. >> if she's stepping down she's allowed to say i'm retired and resigning. if she's pushed out she can jump the gun and get out of there with the news before they force her to kowtow with a new replacement. i'm not surprise by this move. >> meantime coming up shares of electronic arts up more than 59% since the start of 2013. will the much hyped star wars games hype the company up higher. mcdonald's seems strong. same store sales numbers in the past month in the revamped menu could be a reason why. one trader says midnight mcmuffins aren't enough to convince him to buy the stock. it is a fight, golden arches

5:16 pm
5:17 pm
greatest consoles and games. joining us is current coo peter moore. peter, pleasure to speak to you. >> thank you melissa. >> in terms of the pipeline when should we expect a star wars game to hit store shelves? >> well we haven't announced that. as you can imagine we're excited about the movie slate that disney has announced and will try and be in lock step with their slate and make sure that we try and get our games around that. no announcement on the dates. >> that's why i asked you. once the movie hits the theaters that's when the game is going to be out? >> yeah. in our industry what we try and do is look where the excitement for a piece of property obviously in this star we're talking about star wars.
5:18 pm
while these games are not movie based games they're based on the intellectual property we recognize the fact that it bee hooufs us to ship it at the same time. you can look for announcements in the next month or so. >> your latest quarter was reported and the stock was up 15%, a 52 week high on the news. digital revenues were up 40% year on year in the latest quarter. can we discern that consoles and the refresh cycle that's less important to your business with digital revenues growing at such a fast clip? >> not really. the console business is important. a lot of those digital revenues rely on console sales. they come on top of a packaged goods product. best examples are battle field franchises. they have hundreds of millions of dollars attached to the
5:19 pm
console sales. we feel we are a well balanced company. our trading is about $1.7 billion. it's mobile. it's free to play. but we think that this nice blend that we've got now despite the excitement about the console shipping puts us in great position for the future. >> x one was tautd was a catalyst for you as a price that was announced today at $499 a console. do you see that as a catalyst? is there an appetite for such a high priced high end console? >> i think so when you have seen over the last couple of weeks the announcement that microsoft has made about the functionality of the console, the amount of games that we saw at our press conference this afternoon. we're going to hear from play station about the price point, the fact that it's shipping this year and a great slate of games. it all comes together well for
5:20 pm
our industry for what should be an incredibly exciting and unique november if that's when sony ships as well. >> thanks for your time. peter moore, the coo of electronic arts. you think digital you think something like a game stop would be the equivalent of a barnes and noble? >> the stock has unbelievable. are the space had a rough day today. i got to tell you, valuation isn't ridiculous in the stock. with this stock down 4% today, if you are looking for one of these names on a short squeeze, game stop might be one of them. >> time for top three trades for today. first amazon expanding the fresh grocery delivery service to a wider area. current members will receive $35 in groceries if they are a
5:21 pm
member of amazon prime. >> people think we talk about the stock up much which i don't think we do but here's a stock, this is a company whose operating margins have been improving over the last couple of quarters. although valuation has been stretched, the stock looks interesting. it has to get above 285. it has done everything right in terms of the stock. >> barrens says the electric car maker stock could be up as little as 50 bucks a share. >> long term everyone agrees this has the possibly to be a huge winner. it has certainly gotten ahead of itself fundamentally. this stock trades on something simple. everyone agrees it's an incredible story and extensive so short interest is the key. tomorrow we get the newest update on the short interest. it's notable that that number
5:22 pm
dropped from 34 million shares to 23 million shares. you don't want to see another drop if you are long. you want the shorts in here because they become forced buyers. that's really in the short term what's going to move this up or down. >> finally a trade update from the one and only region is fill bin. back in february he was talking about one of his favorite stocks. do we have that sound bite? >> i guess we don't. big fan of micron hitting fresh all time highs today. this afternoon he wrote me a letter saying, dear melissa, i thought about calling you on your show friday to let you know about micron technology. sure enough tu knew all about it. it's just the beginning. he said he's still in the stock. >> he's been hanging on this
5:23 pm
one. consensus estimates have gotten low. you've seen a back stop on memory. memory is not -- we have been talking about a sexy part of tech. absolutely not. there has been a better call in terms of cap. and micron with an 86 rsi after this move i'm not sure i'm piling in here regis, you sit back and take profits. >> part of the note we cut out was regis said he wants to spend his days trying to make tim and guy rich. >> he's going to need a lot of time for that. i'm ready any time. >> i'll hold regis' bags for him. >> anything he does turns to gold. >> exactly. still ahead the scoop on the biggest stories sure to move the needle in tomorrow's trade, social media, lockups an much more. the big time success in china, the highest returning china fund of 2012 and says for 13 he's

>> consumer directions naers 24 energy, 27%. what's the overall theme when we look at your portfolio and your beliefs in the economy. >> there's a bull market in the private sector in china and that's where we focus. the economy is rebalancing. the private sector is driving growth increasingly. what we're seeing is the cost of capital for the private sectors coming lower where as the cost of capital is going higher for the soe. there's a big trend and that's where we're going to focus our portfolio and the consumer is a big part of that. >> are you surprised that the government hasn't been more stim la tif here with inflation of 2.1. industrial production numbers over the weekend, we're back to may 09 levels on ip. that's worrying for an economy that i believe is diversifying

to more of a consumption economy. to me it appears distressing. >> things are slow. i'm not all that surprised. we haven't seen fiscal or monetary stimulus. messages out of beijing are focused on avoiding these boosts. it's painful for some sectors, like the soes, steel r potential big problem with steel. however, they're patient. they're in the process of developing long term social and economic reforms. that's going to be social for the next three to five years in china. >> eric it seems like most areas within asset management mutual funds, you see a trend of investors going toward indexes. in your case it looks like you have a small amount of holdings more concentrated in the index, probably the secret to your
