>> that's a good point. hyper partisan environment. thank you for joining us. >> my pleasure. parting word of wisdom >> i wonder if this is going to be an abutting issue or one more node of saying big business and the administration are at odds over certain things. that does it for closing bell. fast money starts right now. fast money starts right now. nasdaq market looking new york city's time square. tonight on fast, sea of red for the market today. something in the charts that could spell more trouble for one hot sector. plus the destruction from hurricane harvey is not over yet. now u.s. is bracing for what could be an even bigger storm. irma. bring you the details and stocks moving off of it. later wells fargo to dump
5:01 pm
disney. first, stocks having their worst day since august 17. dow dropping 300 points at the session. check out the stunning move in the ten-year treasury yield falling to lowest level since day after election. hovering over 2%. number of issues weighing on the markets today. north korea, debt ceiling looming and fears a long immigration fight could hurt tax reform. is this a start of september swoon or once again by the dip. >> hurricane as well obviously. . i don't mean to be glib. it should have been worse today. not could have been. i think it should have been worse. given where we've been. given how low the vix has been. i think you could have made a excelling argument the market would have been down 30 s&p handles and closed on low. didn't do that again. not going to say we couldn't see it down again.
5:02 pm
in the context of today, i don't think it was a terrible thing. you mentioned it was a continued move lower in yields. now we're below in a ten year at 2.09% rate that had been supported for quite some time. below that now. see what happens. ten year gets below 2% we'll start talking in different tune. >> i believe with guy. i think it was better than that. started off much higher. day went on, we started to lose steam and gained it back a little at the end. to me the more interesting thing, cash carry were both very, very dovish. >> what's new? >> so be it. out there being dovish. we saw the ten year react to that and then the banks talks. that's not so good for bank stocks. down market of course. not good for bank stocks either. i think that's why the banks took it on the chin.
5:03 pm
>> i would raise you. all we did today was drift higher. playing with the house money. people on vacation. nobody focused. we're not pressing on any of this. if you think about what happened in on of it. >> we're not pricing in north korea, debt ceiling. >> absolutely. i'm not sure the bottom market reflects the economy. i don't think it does. if you look at tens, we're close to being at ten year lows for how flat the ten year curve has been. i get back to banks. banks have been the place everyone has said. banks if you wanted to buy on two weeks ago, you really want them now. i want to be consistent. i think financials are very interesting. i don't need to buy bank of
5:04 pm
america tomorrow, but yes the setup hasn't changed because the rhetoric has. >> i think it's important to go back to what you just said. what is being priced in here. s&p is down 1.5%. not a lot. i think it's important you mentioned yields. you're saying i'm not certain it's reflective of what's to come in the u.s. look at the dollar. makes new lows almost every day here. look at equity markets. s&p is down no euro terms. when you think about what's going on in the world and risk assets to me you see a lot of those trades that really took off since the election have round trip for all intents and purposes. >> isn't some of that the strength and your surprising strength in europe. them talking about so that is more of the euro. >> there's a lot of things going on. >> for whatever reason right now we spend a lot of time talking about u.s. risk assets. don't look so rosy when you consider all of the potential
5:05 pm
head winds we have. especially in the near terms and especially how much ground has been gained over the last nine or ten months. >> except for the fact u.s. risk assets have been the safe play for the last seven years. european have been investing for the last month. you've doing fantastic. you are translated back to euros. depreciating. i tell you what, the ecb meets thursday. major risk for the market. may move before the fed does. think about the politics in europe right now. merkel is going to win running away on the 24th of september. coalition between france and germany looks very strong. room possibly more more cohesion in the europe than the u.s. did you ever think you would be saying that. more aggressive, hawkish central banks leaving the party. something the invest torsion have to face up to. >> lack of cohesion is a real problem. look how something with the daca announcement. we have someone say i think this
5:06 pm
should be resolved before tax reform. some point very soon you have a situation where investors are not pricing in all of the hiccups you have. to me tax is a big part of why this s&p is up right now. >> you both are kaurcautious. >> we're on the same side of the boat. all i would say is this market continues to be unbelievably defensive and i don't think -- i think you're going to need a couple more significant shots. it's going to be really dangerous when it becomes active again to the downside. going to take a lot more than this to get it moving. >> i would think the price action today would make you more bullish about the resilience of the markets in the face of these potential threats. >> i was trying to make the point at the top of the show. i thought it could have been worse. the warning signs are clearly there. i had been faked out countless times over the last seven years. one thing i think is worth watching.
5:07 pm
deutsche bank trading down levels we last saw back in april. below $16. the dax has held. deutsche bank is rolling over. i don't know what it means. the stock you have to watch in terms of europe. >> you're cautious of europe. >> given the price action of the last six to nine weeks of deutsche bank, clearly something going on. our next guest is warning investors today's selloff is a likely a swept swoon. why now? why is it that now u.s. investors should get cautious as to a week before or two weeks ago or should they have been cautious all along. >> it has to do with year over year comps. it was working for the first half of the year. second half starts to lighten up. to the extent you think impact from d.c. and that maybe being pushed into 2018 all of that good things we are expecting that doesn't happen, that's not
5:08 pm
priced in in our view. the market hasn't accepted the idea that market reform may not happen. it's already been pushed to 2018. little bit of pushback. deregulation basket fall below the s&p. there's more room for that to kind of unwind. if growth doesn't continue to come through, all of these things have to align for this to work for investors to continue on with the risk asset trade. >> you think the linchpin for the rally is something out of d.c. progress in d.c. and does what with daca in your mind or j.p. morgan's mind put off tax reform even more. >> it definitely clouds the picture. with respect to that we know immigration impacts long run growth. it's not going to be something that impacts the market over the next 12-18 months generally our time horizontal. we're just telling investors they have to be more selective. the idea the broad market is going to continue to grind higher, perhaps if we're okay
5:09 pm
with gdp or earnings pushing that forward. to the extent we think there's other things wrapped around this, if that doesn't come through, in our view that hasn't been priced in yet. >> i thought you had a question. >> there are sectors you think are able to avoid d.c. stuff over others. >> we think tech. tech isn't a flashily social media story. we like the payments. we like video games. software, mobile. across the board tech has been attractive and i would say within the value bucket we do like financials which i know you were talking about earlier. >> are you concerned about big cap tech. do you think they're going at lagger head to the white house. then you throw in anti-trust and things google is facing around the world. >> on the horizontal it does seem that at some point tech could be recklated. that seems like an obvious next step for d.c. to go there. doesn't seem imminent though. also has synergies from global
5:10 pm
tech. we like the broad base. in some parts it could seem frothy. >> tax reform. tax cuts. two very different things. how much do you think a ten% up on the year s&p is anticipating repatuation or some sort of plan for a tax reform in all intents and purposes should be a bipartisan thing. >> it's hard to put a number. we put out research showing you could get a $10 earning bump from tax cuts and tax reform. hard to say what percentage of that is already priced in. we do know sentiment has been void in tax reform. we're not certain we can count on d.c. to get all of that. really has to come through to earnings and earnings might not be as strong as they were. >> i hate to bring up the storms into context of a trading show. bring it up. couple banks think the storms
5:11 pm
are gdp down the road. some thing negative. positive impact in the long-term from rebuilding. obviously a very big addition tin distinction to be made from the suffering happening and the market impacts of all of that. we think it could have a tangible impact on gdp with the leg. >> thank you. j.p. morgan funds global market strategist. what did you do today. >> she talked the about some of the em tech and to me, pullbacks in things like alibaba is things to buy. i was cautious. the one place i was active was the energy center. i added haller burton. and if energy continues to be and even if it's the hurricanes which are events that shouldn't
5:12 pm
drive. i thought there was interesting strength in retail. all up on the day. i'm still i get that story. i'm still looking at the xrt. one with me i've been short on. a few occasions. not right now. broke down for key support. i'm looking for a reentry there. i'm definitely tracking very closely. i think there's relative strength trade in big box. also the department stores since the earnings kind of put lows in there. don't want to be pressing them short. look to put that out on a rally. >> one area of weakness was financials. i know samantha likes them. don't go out and buy them immediately. >> why should i be in that financial trade? it really trades on what the back of the yield is doing. >> i understand that. still comes down to evaluation. story can a space that had head
5:13 pm
winds for six years. now has tailwinds behind it. i understand the market fluctuations. quite frankly understand well in. one name that stuck out with adam jonas last week. auto nation on a lousy day was up a percent today. mentioned it last week. >> i'm sticking with the banks. valuation and support under them. big buybacks. decedent yields and i think we're going to see good markets. >> coming up. week after hurricane harvey, here comes hurricane irma. on track to collide with florida. market is already reacts. give you the names moving the most. a ruch yeough year for disn maybe not for long. the good times at the mouse house are just blind the corner.
5:14 pm

5:18 pm
there, it's changes each time we get an update. widens out. everyone needs to be on alert. if you haven't started to make preparations, you need to do so. key west starting evacuations as early as tomorrow morning. that's going to continue. we'll see that continue as we move forward in the next few days. watch this latest update from the national hurricane center is a category five. strong category five storm right now 185-mile-per-hour winds. that is a huge storm. only second to hurricane allen ever in history. we're going to keep up-to-date as we move forward. you want to make sure if you haven't taken this seriously yet that you start to do so. we're already seeing impact in the number of florida based insurance companies. we're also seeing pressure on some of the bigger names.
5:19 pm
[ inaudible ] depot, i think it's reasonably priced still upside. go back and look at all the major hurricanes. see what the insurers have done in the months afterwards. 3-5 months almost to the letter, the stocks all roughecover and higher michigan sense is that will happen again. >> i don't know what the state of the insurance companies were back then in terms of cash cushion. this time they can weather this storm in terms of the losses. right. and they may, but they may not be able to jack up the premiums later on. >> there's so much competition. as much capital in the pace. >> exactly. different dynamic. >> i mean, today's move irma, i
5:20 pm
guess. maybe because i think took a brief hit last week. i think it's still very competitive. a lot of capital out there. i think it's going to be hard. >> if you think about it, these insurance companies a lot are lumped i forced to be in a very different place. the ultimate loser is the consumers. we're all going to getrates. this is a tax on everybody ultimately. these guys will pass it on. >> in terms of where the path is, looks like it's going more towards the west and if it does, could make land fall in louisiana. hits refineries that did not get hit in harvey and take those offline. >> gas prices over the weekend timed with labor day weekend. retailers were opportunitistic on the pricing. got 2.1 in refineries still shutdown. pipeline is open.
5:21 pm
a lot of the texas area get back on board. i remind you the rig counts shot. the last three weeks have stabilized. we are locked in a range of 45-55. gets back to which companies are free cash flow positive and not all of them are, but a handful of them are. i think this is a great opportunity. xle has bounced. a name i'm at least standing in. doesn't have to be a long-term trade. still ahead the largest deal in aerorow space historyspace h. may the force be with you. >> wells fargo says the force is with disney and plans to go over the top.

5:27 pm
welcome back too fast money. live at the market side. sea of red as the industry posted worst since august. s&p and nasdaq falling around 1%. dow closed down more than 230 points. coming up in the second half of the show. one of the best performing groups of stocks in the last year. he'll tell us what it is and how
5:28 pm
bad he sees it getting. plus a bold call for one wells fargo analyst telling us not to underestimate disney's dive into the streaming wars. first united technologies formerly agreeing to buy rock well collins. that has one dow rival crying foul. let's get to chicago for the details. hi phil. >> we're talking about the rival and strongly worded stra eed stt you usually don't hear from companies when it comes to kp competitors merging. the other third coming in cash. rock well collins they're going to kohl it collins air row
5:29 pm
space. erospace. some people are wondering if this will give united technologies too much control when it comes to aifonics or the aerospace industry. we don't see a problem with trust lregulations. here's what he said this morning. >> it's the very little overlap. the risk we think is very low. we'll release companies together. we can create value for customers by bringing the businesses together. >> well, one of their customers is not very happy. that customer being boeing. oolts of these aifonics, they're be going into boeing airplane. should we determine this deal is inconsistent with those interest, those interest being keeping cost as low as possible and driving down -- driving in value for the plane, we would
5:30 pm
intend to exercise contractual rights and regulatory options to protect interest. keep in mind, boeing a while ago formed an aifonics divisionvion in terms the of putting rock well collins together with united technology. >> in one moment the two are pressured by boeing and airbus to lower costs. then they're threatening. the tables have turned on this. >> in part because people are looking at this and saying how much will this cut into the margins for boeing. they are -- it's going to be
5:31 pm
tougher for them to drive down prices with united technologies if this merger goes through. >> what are they referring to when they're talking about exercising contractual rights? isle it customer, competitor what are they doing? >> i think that was a thinly veiled we will find somebody else if we think this is bad for us, but the question remains, it's not a -- there are competitors out there when it comes to avionics. not like rockwell collins has a monopoly out there. i think what boeing is saying is look, we think this is not going good for us. we may find a way to move around with other customers. >> phil, thank you. fascinating story considering it's been unraveling for a month
5:32 pm
now. >> raveling. >> would you rather. >> i like this game. late in the show. 5:31. >> would, boeing or united collins. >> i tell you why because dan has a kpcompelling chart that would back up what i'm saying. i'm say this, boeing is going -- i understand what boeing is upset. there are competitors in the space of rockwell collins. the reality is rockwell collins has done it better than everybody else for the last two decades and collins needs them as much as collins needs boeing. with that said, morgan stanley earlier i think they both overweight and still think boeing, boeing out of all of them sets up the best. >> do you have a compelling chart. >> come on dan, you do. you showed it to me and now making me look like the jerk i am. >> i'm going to say boeing since
5:33 pm
the last gap it just flat lined. to me, that's a gap that needs to be filled at some point. through your uptrend and all of sort of stuff. that's a better value. >> i think there's an integration risk. already integration going on before this. now you have them together. that can be a distraction. it will take a long time. that's management distraction. that will be in boeing. >> a friend of the show, covers the space. says this deal is creative to utx. $160 a share. getting it as a steal below 130. where it is right now. poeing had a huge run. boeing story is all about free cash flow. i think it's getting priced in.
5:34 pm
industrials were having one of the best performing sectors in the past 12 months. next guest saying there could be trouble ahead. corner stone at the plaza to break it down. >> i think we have an item or two that's an issue. long-term out performance in the part of industrial. and yet, year to date, actually, they've badly underperformed the market. you have problem of too much over a long period of time and under performance. look at a few charts to put it in context. 09. where we are now. market. add another line. and now industrials. you can see quite clearly you've got outperformance and recent under. now let's add the winner. perf under. now let's add the winner. are. >> massive performance on the part of aerospace in a sector
5:35 pm
itself has outperformed the market: very weak stocks within the sector and strong stocks specifically aerospace are starting to show cracks. all right. now, there's a good etf which you can use if you want to put on a trade like this or take this one. it's called i ta. these are the top five. what you see here is that they are about 39%. it's the big names that you know. here's a two year chart. it's very orderly. here is very precise trend. so bottom at the top, top, at the bottom. it's repeatedly and over again. we're right at the top. once you of course want to make the bed is that you're going to do you know this kind of thing which is fail off the line, fail off the line. and once again probably going to get this.
5:36 pm
the best part is defense attorney -- done. this is the bigger issue. this is xli. and performance to the s&p. take a look when i put in these lines. this tells us everything. we know the sector itself, right, has broken out to new highs, but it's relative performance never could make a new high since the so-called earnings recession for industrials. a point at which boeing dropped 33% of its value. this is the real problem. if you have weak stocks that are not keeping up with the market at the same time your strongest stocks are starting to falter or reaching leveling they're not likely to continue. industrials are a bad place to be. here's a chart of xli. we have now broken trend and everything i can see would suggest there's more to come. i want the underweight and industrials bet against aerospace here. it's just too good. >> carter being in the top 20
5:37 pm
guests that are in the top three consistently. deserves an invite. >> it was a knock on me. >> quality here. >> i have a question. the channel you showed seemed very convincing that even if there is a check back to the bottom of the trend line, there will still be a move higher. >> we don't know. we don't know. the odds are that it's been living in that channel for about two years. quite precisely too. we're likely to come to the bottom of the channel just as we have every other time we got to the top. and if you're at the bottom, maybe it will throw it back to top. first things first, odds are high we'll get to the bottom of the channel. represents meaningful give back from here. start to lose your strongest stocks within the sector, what holds the sector
5:38 pm
>> if you take out big names of sector like boeing and defense, and you have more names like. what do you think for that section. >> in that area where it's got element every single gap. names you mentioned. i thinker solngersoll. ting setup is you have out performance and then add to that new and sort of unsettling under performance. with then your heros starting to get to levels where they can't. >> can we talk about heros. you mentioned boeing and you mentioned the 35%. 2015 highs and 2016 lows. now up 136%. i've been doing this for 20 years. these guys on my corner about
5:39 pm
30, 40 years. i've never seen anything like that in industrial stocks. that's we're tied to sub greater fools theory as it relates in tech or is something. how does that happen. >> that's it. boeing is being treated as though it can't do anything wrong. a lot of these multiples on some of the names that you mentioned are at or near historic highs. one thing boeing has no competition. just airbus and always going to get the contract. all very dicey in the world. doesn't matter. stocks like coke ka cola have draw downs of 15-20% repeatedly. well,s fargo says you're missing the disney picture. here to make her case.

. well,s fargo is betting on disney streaming strategy to give the boost. raising price target on disney stock today on optimism about plans to direct a direct to consumer espn brand out next year and direct to consumer disney brand service in 2019. disney shares are down nearly 6% since announcing those plans. and as well as it's earnings last month. investors have been concerned with espn's ongoing struggles and wondering what the new streaming services will do to bread and butter, traditional tv bundle. investors need to start thinking about increasing exposure to media companies with solid streaming strategies.
5:44 pm
recommending cbs and fox. as well as disney. recommended again in the newly merged discovery and scripts. netflix shares have taken a hit since disney announced pulling disney and picks ar filmsxar fi. together this year. facebook is taking a different tactic with original programming launching on watch tab just last week. it could also emerge razz another buyer for sports content as amazon has with the 10 nfl games it will stream this season. the analyst who made the bold call on disney. marcy, thank you so much for joining us. we appreciate it. really fascinating note. i'm curious, in terms of interpreting disney strategy as
5:45 pm
a stolid streaming strategy, how do you think about that cable channels and how they need to price it and how many subscri subscribers they need to get for potential losses on the cable side. >> big picture, terms of a solid strategy you need content. they visit. you need management. they have it. you need customer relationships. they visit. now you have technology. they have it. in terms of quantity fies. i don't know the street is really ready tom think about the potential upside. everybody is focused on the potential downside. in our note this morning. we don't think there's much downside. we don't think that disney is paying billions of dollars in a disney branded ott offering. i think they're going to take library content. take movies and do some originals. going to have a pretty good return. >> marcy, i read your notes. you said in they succeed, they should trade close to 17.5 times. they're currently trading the at
5:46 pm
15 times. totally unction th totally understand that. hasn't the sector been down so the multiples offiester year don't really apply. toll me, ting sentiment is too negative. after august 8, there's a lot of things that need to be cleared up. had a bad earnings call definitely. the sub had accelerated. i think that wasn't fully explained. if you go back to the call, what they were talking about if you understand the media, q2 was 60 days delayed. and so at that point in time, hulu had not launched and youtube was in five markets. didn't have a lot of subs in the streaming service. their strategy sounded last minute. my guess is it's not. well thought at strategy. maybe the communication could have been better. it's going to start this week when he starlets talking at an
5:47 pm
investor conference in new york city. >> what does he need to say to make you more confident in your call. >> talk about how this has been a well planned and thought out strategy. wasn't a last minute strategy and talk a little bit about the investment spend. there's a lot of fear that disney is going to go down a netflix path and spend all this money. and we just don't think that's the case. >> why are you so willing to give disney. i understand giving them benefit of the doubt because the management team has been solid. et cetera. they have a history of this. at the same time, go back to first question i asked you. how do you think about how they should price the ott service and how many subscribers they need to make it work. whether or not it can bliezs from the cable project. it's coming from netflix. espn is a compliment. it's not linear. it's a compliment. you can authenticate. i think is very important. in terms of pricing sort of
5:48 pm
given us a hint. said, look. we want market share. going to price this reasonably. doesn't mean we're going undervalue it. it's going to be reasonable pricing. think about the product. to have $8.99 service to get disney movies, i think that's a pretty good deal. >> marcy, thanks for joining us. appreciate it. >> with that disney call too. what do you make of disney right now. >> looks interesting. the chart tells me and she brought up technical arguments for for stock too how it trades at premium to s&p and below it now. to me the question is guy brought it up, should the media sector be trading best of breed. disney absolutely is. should it be trading above the s&p, i'm not sure now. >> is there a secular re-rating that needs to happen. >> absolutely. >> it's happening for sure. happening already. will it ever come out of it, i don't know. >> i don't know. landscape may have changed. >> relating happened when
5:49 pm
massive secular shift hit the entire industry. now look at what they're doing and look at how it's sticking around and changes they're making. you could make the case she's probably smart. probably a little early. then they're going to have this tail wind wungs they get set up. what did she say about espn. saying it's a compliment. >> i think was at agree sisny deserves. am skeptics. well good to speak to the one betting. i'm not ownser. getting bullish of the media giants. interesting. just talking about this call. it's a long-term call. secular call. bob has time to have it play out. today was really interesting. the activity was very short-term. wasn't particularly convicted.
5:50 pm
cal volume was two times that of put. two most active call strike weekly that expired this friday. people buying 101. 3,000 traded at one point. traders looking to play for a little gap fill. look at the chart back from earnings. went down 106.5. down to 101. this is going to have time to play out. been trading in very tight range. i think it's probably breaks 100. if it doesn't say what people expect him to at the conferences, then you're going to have lower lulls. >> option check of friday. coming up bitcoin falling more than 10% from high of 5,000. just hit on friday. what's behind the move all the details. all the details. more fast money still ahead. so that i can take my trading platform wherever i go.
