5:07 am
we have the benefit of low rates if you call them a benefit because there is no threat of inflation on the horizontal. >> we got the weaker number. perhaps they have to see more evidence. either way this one is more important than usual because may 11,000. june 287,000. we'll see if we can get a normal one. somewhere in between. beyond the jobs report we'll get international trade data at 8:30 a.m. eastern time. 3 this afternoon, june consumer yet. some stocks to watch today. rack space. had a market valuation of $3 million before the report of the sale. that's increased sharply with a nearly 20% move. >> fire eye planning to lay off workers. this as announced quarterly sales that missed own forecast

5:22 am
do the must remembers make a difference this rerl on before the debates even happen. >> reporter: they may not make a difference by november, but they do tell us the effect of the conventions. it's not just one poll. we have a couple of national polls in at least four battleground all showing the same thing. a slide for donald trump and a bump for hillary clinton. >> you want a president who stands for you're fired or one who stands for you're hired. >> reporter: as hillary clinton hammers away how donald trump does business. >> he has cheated contractors. i take that personally. >> reporter: several polls put her in the lead. plus significant leads in michigan and phil mickelsonflor trump is down double digits in florida and wisconsin. >> he is in trouble in wisconsin. i don't think he helped himself in his own party by picking a fight with the most popular republican politician. right now there's a lack of
5:23 am
enthusiasm for him. >> not backing house speaker paul ryan, but his running mate is. >> i say mike, you like him, yes, go ahead and do it. 100%. >> now another lawmaker has announced he won't vote for trump. >> it seems he's at times hellbent on losing a winnable election. >> trump is back where it all started, iowa. >> reporter: trump has complained the system is rigged and rigged against him. president obama was asked about that and called it ridiculous. >> i saw that in the news conference. meantime house speaker paul ryan says he sees no point in holding a vote on the tpp during a session of congress. in a radio interview, ryan said there aren't enough votes for the trade deal. both presidential candidates have bashed the ttpp, but the white house has voweds to make a
5:24 am
push to pass it. president obama did lay out his case when he thinks it should pass and republicans are actually backing it as well. >> it's interesting this is a topic that transcends party lines because you'll find people depending on what state, how much trade you actually do with some of these nations as a result in your particular state, that's going to be a big deal as well. certainly president obama weighing in. also weighing in yesterday during a press conference late yesterday touching on a broad range of topics. among them donald trump's claim the election will be rigged in favor of hillary clinton. >> of course the elections will not be rigged. what does that mean? that's ridiculous. that doesn't make any sense. i don't think anybody would take that seriously. >> the president does note the federal government does not run the election. it's a function carried out by states and local governments. now to the olympics, just hours before the opening s

5:31 am
let's show you quickly what happened. japan nikkei lost some ground. shanghai closed lower, but just barely. more strength in hong kong. that is that correcstock market fire. >> obviously a lot of stories at play here. as for the broader macro markets. let's check out oil. the last trade there down about half a ice brent 44.07. that's off .5% as well. the ten year note, we are seeing yields at 1.5%. 1.495. we have seen steady at least rates around that 1.5 mark. that range over the course of the past few trading days. so the dollar you can see here, weakness for the dollar across the board, although i wouldn't say by very much.
5:32 am
1.45 cost you to buy a euro. that's up. the pound 1.3145. and dollar yen holding right below that dollar level. gold of course ahead of the jobs number. 1368.90 the last trade there. today's top story, the july employment report. so here's the forecast. they say the economy is likely to have hadded 179,000 jobs last month. unemployment rate is deemed by falling a bit. joining us now is patrick o key, director of economic research. worked in the labor department during the reagan administration. when do we get to job reports that have a significant impact on the presidential election. >> we'll never get there in this presidential election. nobody is going to talk substance it appears.
5:33 am
the job report we get into the september october reports. at that point, people will begin to factor in what is the economy doing. the job report is a good way to measure in real terms or day-to-day terms what's going on. >> so starting with today's report, 179 is the consensus estimate. do you agree with that number. >> we're a little bit higher. atypical for us. we're looking for 190,000 jobs. 180,000 in the private sector. we may be a little higher in revisiting it. i think we have enthusiasm for the goods producing sector, extraction, manufacturing, we are looking at those as being stronger than they have been over the last months. >> now the employment rate is a number i want to focus on here. it has a lot of variables that go into it. it is seen by many as perhaps an indicator, a prodder indicator of the health beyond just the head line number.
5:34 am
what's you take on that rate? the 4.8%. is it reflective of what's happening in the job markets. >> the unemployment rate is probably the most misunderstood indicator. it's the count of people activelily looking for jobs in the last 30 days as a portion of the labor report. if we wanted to look at human resource utilization we should be asking ourselves how many people who are work eligible have jobs and employment rate. we calculate that. the unemployment rate tells us right now we're at full unemployment. if we took into account the decline in participation and had a participation adjusted unemployment rate it would be under 9% not under 5%. >> is that why the economy still feels sort of miserable, especially on jobs. >> absolutely. we all know someone who doesn't
5:35 am
have a job or is underployed. this unemployment rate because the fed uses it as an example of where the economy is, the unemployment rate gets undue attention. we should be looking at the share of the population that has jobs. >> as we talk about this idea that this economy overall may not feel like it's getting better because in fact it's not. if we do see any kind of a sign in the economy that's going to make us feel like things are getting better beyond the jobs number, what kind of growth do we have to see there in gdp in jobs over all, in production, in manufacturing? what's important to make this feel like it's coming along. >> i think we need sustained acceleration across the indicators. what this recovery has brought us is this stutter step performance where we get some good news, some indicators. bad on others. some are indifferent. what we really need is a sustained upward movement across the wide range. gdp is going to look good this
5:36 am
quarter. the jobs numbers are picking up a little bit, but i don't know how far they have to run. manufacturing, the goods producing sectors. we need them to step back up to the plate. >> do you predict all will be good enough to raise interest rates again in 2016. >> not before december. i see absolutely no prospect of the fed moving in september. they are too smart to step into the middle of this presidential kerfuffle and the data won't warrant it. they may try to do it september. there's really no need e. when we look at the federal funds rate we're looking at the wrong indicator. we should look at the reserves sitting in the banking system and ask ourselves why isn't there demand to put that money to work. >> that may be a big reason we're not seeing any inflation pick up. what kind of inflation would we need to see for the fed to talk about rate hikes.
5:37 am
>> i really can't answer that for you. the lechl of inflation we have right now we're flirting actually flirting with the concept of deflating is beyond the analytical skills of most economists. the economy looks like it's performing well, but a lot of signals tell us it's weak underneath. >> thank you so much. very valuable as always on this jobs day. patrick o key. some stocks to watch today, linked in posting better than expected earnings and sells. the company is in the process of being sold to microsoft. you see the shares not reacting to too much on that. wing stop beating the stock. full year guidance in consensus. the company ceo will join "squawk box" at 7:40 a.m. eastern time. an interview to watch there. revenues as well coming in
5:38 am
better than expected in its current quarter guidance is upbeat here. you can see the shares moving there. >> look at that chart. >> it's an interesting three-month chart there. up very large. 43%. >> other stocks to watch this morning, takata quarterly earnings and revenue. backing full year forecast saying it still plans to return to the black. the company is in the middle of a major global rehall and that is certainly weighed on shares. chevron reportedly selling assets in asia as it works to make cash. putting the value of the assets at $5 billion. check out shares of sing gentleman synga. future revenue. they got that. the shares are down 10%. >> it seems like an option.
5:39 am
calling all bug bounties here. apple announcing it's going to start paying hackers who find and report vulnerabilities in the products. hunting down the most severe bugs could get you $200,000 if you can felt the big bugs. microsoft, google, and facebook have similar programs in place. >> that's a good reward. >> yes, you can fish those things out for sure, sara. among today's top trending stories, google wants to help you find a parking spot. it's soon to be updated map's app could include a message about parking shortsages in your destination. i'm not a driver. >> i am. it works it could be extremely useful. i am here most of the time, sara, but every once in a while i have to go to new york city and i drive myself because i like driving and i drive around
5:40 am
blocks trying to find parking because it's hard to find a spot. >> and expensive. >> yes and that's why i don't live in new york city. that could be a big one. one i'm watching here is first daughter sascha obama handing a summer job. checking out kucustomers and bussing tables at nancy seafood strauntd. an interesting take on a summer job. >> what was your first summer job. >> i worked a a coffee shop. >> i worked at a golf course. >> you could have been just like sascha behind a counter taking orders. >> i don't think i wanted to work at a fish restaurant. >> anyway, amazon unveiling first prime air cargo jet. company has big plans to expand logistics and take over control of more deliveries. the plane is a boeing and has prime air printed on the
5:41 am
fuselage. amazon is releasing 40 jets to take more control of their deliveries. this is an interesting move by a company that has a lot of resources around it. lease jets and put logos on there. >> anything to get the passages. >> but not drones yet. >> they're trying. speaking of amazon, ceo just sold a million shares of his company. it's a routine sale for the executive. he has an annual predetermined schedule. shares of amazon are up so big that means his latest sell is worth more than $755 million. that's just a regular sort of automatic. >> it's so amazing it's his predetermined stock sale and he gets a power ball jackpot every time there's a sale of his stock, but congratulations. >> if you have a lot of stock and your sthok is doing well, it's a good thing. >> yes. today's must reads. check out the trading picture in

5:45 am
got buried under all of the theatrics of the trump and clintons this week. the revelation by the journal reporting of the $400 million dollar payment in foreign currency that was sent to iran and was sent around the same time when the american prisoners were freed from iran. the obama administration said it was absolutely not a ransom and not when it comes to the deal making it had to do with a prior deal. here's what the what will street journal says, if mr. obama is right, he paid no ransom, how does he explain iran has taken three more americans hostage since the payment. an unhappy coincidence. even if that wasn't the intention or the obama administration didn't think they were doing that the bottom line is that's how it appears and that's certainly one opinion and that sets a dangerous precedent
5:46 am
when it comes to some of these nations like iran taken hostages and demanding more money. >> there's a reason why america does not negotiate with terrorists because it does put a bounty on people's heads and when you start paying out for that kind of thing, it's a huge deal. again, it's controversial right now, but it's a story worth kind of following along because it is one that's been interesting. >> it's been brought up on the campaign trail. something donald trump has pointed to this week as an example of what he calls bad foreign policy of president obama and secretary of state, hillary clinton. >> so my pick is also in the wall street journal. it's titled the $400 million legal, but not right. the author writing quote considering the government exists to serve and teach us, perhaps it would not be asking too much to demand an explanation. precisely what legislate interest of the u.s. was furthered by loading $400 million of cash in an unmarked
5:47 am
cargo plane and delivering to a state sponsor of terrorist. so a lot of questions we were just bringing up. the optics are not good. doesn't look good. the timing wasn't right. regardless of whether or not hypothetically secretary clinton had anything to do with it or anybody else in the administration, the timing of it and the way it looks doesn't look rights. so maybe more transparency about it beyond what they're saying could be in order. >> a story we highlighted and will be interesting to see if we hear more about it. we are approaching the top of the hour. the team is getting ready for "squawk box." becky quick is getting ready. good morning becky. >> this morning we are all about jobs. we got that all important jobs report coming out at 8:30. this is the number the fed has been watching so closely. they're keeping their eye on a lot of things happening around the globe. probably more so than they are admitting. the number here we've seen a better trend over the last
5:48 am

>> good morning and welcome back to "world wide exchange." we are counting you down to july jobs report. that is due at 8:30 a.m. eastern time. so may added 11,000 jobs. june added 287,000 jobs. that doesn't seem like a normal pattern of job creation. what do you expect for july, john? >> not normal at all, sara. we're looking at 167,000.
5:53 am
the manufacturing and nonmanufacturing employment components were a little bit weaker than expected so we're a little bit below the consensus on job growth and we think also the unemployment rate dips a bit. >> so as we talk about the overall picture for the jobs market, there are industries and there are parts of the market in terms of sectors that do better or do worse on a relative basis. we know about the weakness in the energy markets about metals and mining and that sort of thing. what would you like to see within the internals of the job support that would give you some sbal things are turning around and getting better for the overall economy. >> yes, excellent question. construction. will the construction employment gains be sustained and does that suggest something with respect to housing being a contributor to economic growth. what we would like to see is leisure and hospitality, health, education, those two sectors
5:54 am
seem to be secular growth sectors. consistent with good consumer spending growth. those are the two sickle indicators we're looking at. manufacturering is a little bit tricky. as i mentioned earlier the ism manufacturing survey fell below 50. suggests continued weakness in manufacturing for the united states. >> can you explain why we're seeing a steady pace of hiring. not the kind of averaging we were seeing last year and the year before, but still doing okay whiem businesses are pulling back on spending on capital equipment and plans. now for the third quarter in a row. i heard the same story, sara. a firm sees that it's expected final sales are pretty steady at around 2% and in the united states, domestic final sales are still hanging around 2%. there's not a lot of incentive to add new workers on net new equipment.
5:55 am
i think that phenomenon right now is firms are a little bit uncertain about the future. it is an election year. we're not quite sure if i add an employee today or piece or equipment today, what happens with the new rules and regulations for 2017 and i think they're pretty much settled into the 2% group. we've seen in for five years now. that's a strong incentive to stay where you are. >> let's wrap this up here. what's the most important thing that drives the economy in the second half of the year to the upside or the downside. what's going to be the biggest factor. >> it is still, dominic, the american consumer. that is the driving force for the consumption spending and the housing spending. really, dominic, it's the one thing keeping us out of recession right now. >> finally, are there any fed implications on today's job report? it's always important for the fed, but would it change your view of when we get a rate hike one way or the other?
5:56 am
i think sara if you get the consensus 180,000, it does not change our view. september is off the board. there's toomp uncertainty. you don't have the third quarter gdp number by the september meeting. you will have it later in the year. we think december is much more likely than september. >> we just heard that from patrick o key as well. thank you. the expect shows only a 30% chance right now of december. we'll see if that moves one way or the other. >> just a little bit left here. highlighted a few things to watch. s&p tech sector to watch overall. it has been a standout. >> the only one positive this week thanks to some better earnings. i'm be watching the u.s. dollar. this is the gut reaction for the jobs report. usually the 4 x market gets it right. a better jobs report, higher expectations that the fed raises interest rates.
