them. they have to contend with another big trend in the market and that's this explosion of food delivery apps, pretty much everyone now with a kitchen and a phone can have their food delivered to somebody else. and that is another big challenge that the company is going to face. >> it was always the case or at least yum made the case that those premium -- that american brands in china, that chinese eaters paid a premium price for that. is that still the case with the proliferation of so many chains and american chains? >> reporter: it depends on which brand you're talking about. because coffee, for example, is still aspirational. as you see behind me kfc is marketing now kfc market. they are getting into specialty coffee drinks like lattes and

decided to come out on friday and make public this disclosure that they discovered new e-mails that kpoenlly be relevant. that decision coming under fire here both on the record and off the record from sources. but comey made the decision because he clearly felt the fbi had an institutional -- it was important institutionally for the fbi to come out and put its stamp on this story. now that comey had gone out publicly and talked about it already, he did not want this to come out after the election and for to it look like the fbi was in any way hiding the ball. >> especially if it leaked. tough situation. brett stevens in the "wall street journal" called for him to resign. eamon javers in washington. back to nashts which in the u.s. were lower in october as global bond yields rose. oil prices gained. british pound posted another sharp decline. that performance was largely mirrored by the hedge fund

benefits of a trump presidency, trump will create a colossal panic but the relief rally will be outstanding. we could see an initial shock but long term with all the checks and balances and stimulus and tax proposals that it won't be as destabilizing as many people think. andrew goes through lots of different experts views on this. >> i think it is the question investors need to be asking. i haven't heard that much about it because there's still this view in wall street, in the betting markets that clinton has it. but even more than 25% chance which is what is it now around if you look at real clear politics or 538, we don't see it priced in to the markets right now or maybe do you and maybe the markets don't think it's that big of a deal. either way one in five chance is not an significant probability. >> more interesting what happens to the bond markets. you see an initial safe-haven trade because it's a negative risk event either we see buying

of bond initially but then down the line yields rise because it's the u.s. plc being under threat in some ways. on top of that what happens of course to the fed and to janet yellen, do we see a less dovish. >> the uncertainty. the reason it's not necessarily about policy that the market seems to prefer clinton it's about the fact that they know more, a little more status quo when it comes to her pick. but, good point. michael purvis said you'll see a sell off in bonds if trump gets elected. my must read is from the "wall street journal," resign, mr. comey. he calls on the fbi director to step down. he writes in the most divisive political season in memory mr. comey has become the rare object of political consensus. his motives distrusted by trump and clinton and voters alike. his judgment doubted by

congressional republicans, democratic justice department officials and probably a great many agents in his own bureau. he needs to go. he outlined some of comey's other career achievements and highlights and goss through his whole tenure as fbi director and even before that and it's worth a read this morning especially as he continues mr. comey to be at the center of the story. >> with one week to go. we're approaching the top of the hour, the team is getting ready for "squawk box". michelle caruso-cabrera has a look on what's coming up. >> a great show on "squawk box". we have jayleno coming on. we have senator judd gregg joining us and talk about the intersection of money and politics. we're one week away from the election. we go live to china talk about yum spinning off. that stock will trade here on the new york stock exchange.

nobody expects any action. is that right >> should be an uneventful meeting. the fed will set the case for december but don't box yourself in so that you don't have any wiggle room. >> what kind of hike do we expect in december. it will be important not just whether we get a hike or not but what they forecast for the year ahead. >> that's right. the past is any indication of the future whenever they've been raising the front end or at least talking about raising the front end they lower the back end. i do think it will be a reinforced message yes we did go, we raised rates, we thought we had enough cumulative progress to justify that. we're not in a hurry. you may see a flattening of the chart out into 2018. they expect two hikes a year all

the fed can reasonably accomplish. >> what happens to your fed forecast if donald trump gets elected president. >> you made an interesting point in the lead in. first uncertainty. something that could take december off the table if markets react in a very negative way but i do agree that the further you go out and the more likely you get a large stimulus program then it would allow the fed to be more regular and get some inflation risk premium built in to the longer end of the curve. tricky for the bond market to react but an initial burst of uncertainty and then over time it would settle down once we started to know what the agenda would be. >> michael, we saw stocks decline during the move october but perhaps the most significant market mover was the dollar. 3%. that's a significant move for a month. how worrying is it for markets generally and for the companies reporting results at the moment? >> i would say it's a modest worry.

we don't anticipate as much dollar strength going forward as we had in the past. as you've reported widely we don't have as much interest in other central banks using negative interest rates. the fed is looking at two or so hikes per year. a lot less front end interest rates. some pressure on the dollar over time but not what we saw before. something we're watching 3% to 5% is reasonable pup start pushing 10 it's a problem. >> let's talk about the data. we'll get manufacturing numbers which has been sort of the weak spot in the economy over the last few months and even years blamed on the strong $and weak global demand. what do you expect there? we looking for rebound? >> we're looking for status quo somewhere around 51 and a half. i agree with your characterization. if you look at the gdp report for q3, it looks like the industrial side of the economy whether it's manufacturing or trade or energy that there's some stabilization going on

there. if you look beneath the surface, houvgs we had we-- however we h weakness. so there's some down side risk there. it looks like manufacturing is stabilize but all the data doesn't point in that direction just yet. >> one point, i fwowonder if we didn't pick up on. gdp, was that a surprise? >> no we all pretty much had that pegged the data was showing a broad stabilization in the industrial sector. trained balance added a lot. if you look beneath that what would be worrisome to us is the weakness and imports of consumer goods not auto. there's some softness that bears further watching. >> michael great stuff. thank you for joining us. a minute left what your sfwhachg. >> ten seconds. >> go.
