1:00 pm
things are priced. >> one of the thing that could happen, i'm not saying it is, but to watch for is earnings and companies talking about higher input and you could talk interest rates a very fast way to get this market rally to stop >> sarat, thank you. thanks for watching. that does it for us.

street ♪ ♪ our house in the middle of th street ♪ >> welcome to "power lunch." as melissa points out, another string of record highs for averages any gains by dow, as in dam and s&p 500 means a record close check out some of the big movers right now. sea world is taking a hit. reports the company is a takeover target. so why is it higher? we will explain later. constellation brands, company beating east mates and raising the outlook. constellation ceo joining cramer on "mad money. the xlk is at a new 17-year high paypal, apple, microsoft, alphabet all leading the way there. >> we are looking at shares of regeneron. news that we reported earlier he that u.s. court reversed a ban on sales of the
1:02 pm
cholesterol-lowering drug, can you see shares up 3.5% tyler, back to you >> thank you very much welcome to "power lunch. let's look at the dow. major move that republicans passed a $4 trillion federal budget resolution. it is the first concrete step to tax reform for procedural parliamentary reasons. but there is a lot of work ahead, obviously ylan is here with more hi, ylan >> hi, tyler passing 219-206, no democrats voting in favor of it, watched house committee chairwoman diane black get high-fives from colleagues after the vote was over senate has been trying to get its version of the budget out of committee. remember, the senate's version that includes that $1.5 trillion tax cut. the house version of the budget is actually deficit neutral. i asked chairwoman black today
1:03 pm
whether her members might support a budget that actually increases the deficit. >> i never like to say what my members will or will not do. i can tell you that they are are very concerned about the deficit spending that we continue to do. so i think they will want that to be in some way a part of this final product. >> the senate is in recess next week the house is going to be out after that so you're really looking at early november before you can get the two chambers together to decide on what final version of a budget might look like and that means the time line for getting tax reform done this year is getting really tight, guys back over to you >> it absolutely is. so let's discuss more of that today is the first step towards tax reform as i lan just pointed out or is this just washington process that they are getting too excited about. jim joins us from washington hi, jim. >> hi, how you doing >> how much of a signal is this today that we will get tax
1:04 pm
reform done? >> it is a procedural thing. but you have to get the budget resolution through the senate, ultimately approved by the house, that allows for tax cuts. the $1.5 trillion. i think it is misleading to call it tax reform. at the end of the day i think you are looking at rate cuts for corporate rates. individual rate cuts >> i get a but i'm asking you to handicap that something gets done >> i think something gets done all likelihood, done in q1 of next year. but every republican will want to vote for tax cuts i think there hand isful of senate democrats that will have a hard time not o voting for tax cuts, even if you don't offset the cost of them to some kind of reforms or accompanying spending cuts i think it is hard in politics to say no to a tax cut particularly in an election year for those senate democrats up in trump country, that's a tough vote >> i'm trying to handicap here is the market's rallying because of this. is wall street right to do so?
1:05 pm
>> it seems like markets have been rallying allier on anticipation of tax cuts, especially on the corporate side if markets are factoring in that there will be tax cuts in q 4 q1, then it should be. it is unlikely it heaps this year i think it is unlikely it is actual tax reform. but what the markets want to see is reduction in corporate tax rate that's what republicans are committed to and it senends up around 25% i think you will see reduction in individual income tax brackets you won't see a lot of deductions on the table that people think they will get rid of like for high state taxes i don't think that goes through at end of the day. but you probably get tax cuts. >> i don't know if you see marcus, and now on to the puerto rican debt issue where president trump is saying it should be wiped out, $70 billion worth of debt that they have, and the governor didn't embrace that suggesting that maybe there is a
1:06 pm
deal for bond holders out there, i assume, because at some point puerto rico has to go back to the mark and the borrow again. what do you think about puerto rico's debt? >> i don't know if they even agree with what trump says about the tax debt it was bag problem befoa big prn before the storm but you don't have a lot of republicans rushing to do what would be considering bailout for puerto rico. but they have to also understand this is humanitarian disaster that needs to be dealt with. the fact that they are out next week, i think we are weeks from figuring out exactly what they will do. they listen to trump on this and feel like trump is saying whatever is on his mind at any given day and they hear from the budget director o in the white house who says something different p so they will end up doing what they want to do with probably not a whole lot of guidance from president trump. >> how big an obstacle for the gop is the idea this may not be deficit neutral?
1:07 pm
how many votes do they lose on that >> this is a, to me, one of the most fascinating political topics right now have you a party that says listen we are totally committed to reducing size of government that is in conflict with cutting taxes in a deficit enhancing way. you can say dynamic growth will somehow, you have this economic growth over time but history shows that is probably unlikely. at least at the level they are talking about. there are a small number of senate republicans and small number of house republicans who i don't think would vote for a tax cut unless it is deficit neutral. at the end of the day they can put together a coalition i think ultimately in the house that allows them to do tax cuts and probably some democratic votes. it is easier in the senate than it is in the house if you are rand paul or the freedom caucus, you will have a real gut check you have this opportunity to reduce rates and particularly on the corporate side that should have a big economic affect in a
1:08 pm
positive way but you're looking at long-term deficits that bob corker and others are saying, this isn't sustainable that's what republican parties are built on >> talking about cutting spending, amazing. jim, thank you as we mentioned, another record-breaking day on the street for major averages. s&p on track to post longest winning streak since bill clinton was in the white house in 1997. there you see it up a half percent. president trump tweeting this morning that quote the stock market hits an all-time high, exclamation point. unemployment, lowest in 16 years, exclamation point and manufacturing enthusiasm and highest level in decades, exclamation point. s&p financials, materials, health care, all up more than 20%, exclamation point where do we go from here, exclamation point. >> mike bell, exclamation point,
1:09 pm
jpmorgan asset management. jason, let me start with you michelle just mentioned the market is going up one of the causes could be the prospect of tax reform or a tax cut. do you see it that way why do you think the market is going higher just one day after another as it has been doing >> so like you mentioned, could be six record closes in a row and eight-day win streak as well last six weeks since the bottom in august, i think the move has been somewhat predicated upon this resurgence in tax reform. we see that in small cap and mid cap. and seeing that in more economic sensitive sensors like financ l financials and energy. if you look at the bigger picture for the year, it's been earnings in the economy that have driven stocks higher. and not so much the agenda out of washington or pro growth
1:10 pm
agenda we have seen fantastic growth in q1 and q2. we see a synchronized bounce and economic growth and these things have continued to draw stock prices higher. >> mike, corrections can come out of nowhere for any number of reasons. but bull markets typically don't die until one of two things happens. there is a recession, number one. or inflation rates that rise and tip the economy into recession do you see anything on the near term horizon that could lead to the end of the bull market >> the outlook remains very positive we look at risk of recession, and in the medium term, two to four years, then it may be gradually rising but in the near term, it is very little consumer confidence is strong. everything looks good the at moment >> jason, going back to the idea of tax reform, in 2017, i think
1:11 pm
stocks are arising or seems like stocks are rising based on their own earnings growth, if you look at the consensus estimate about 145 and change for s&p 500 companies, there is a certain amount imbedded in that according to most strategists in wall street because of tax reform you take that out and that could mean a down side to markets in current levels do you have the view that in 2018 it is crucial to have that reform tax cut, whatever you want it call it in place in order for markes to the at least maintain current levels at record highs snrs. >> i think we're at the phase in the secular bull market where earnings are more important than anything else. first phase based on undervaluation based on early parts of economic expansion based on low interest rates. second phase is going to be earnings driven. to your point i think is some tax cut elements baked into next year's earnings. i don't think it is as much as
1:12 pm
some straf gisstrategists sugge. i'm not sure we need to see the bull market continue there are other factors that play low interest rates low inflation and earnings growth as long as we continue it see the economy recovering and global economy in europe and japan and other places where it's bouncing, there is still an upcycle. >> one of the odd things about this year is it seems like every market around the world with few exception says moving higher if i had incremental cash i wanted to put to work for say two-year time horizon, would you recommend i put it more in the u.s. or more in developed nonu.s. markets or emerging markets? >> i think europeanequities across the board have a slight chance to do bet are than the u.s. you see flow into european equities now because margins are coming off
1:13 pm
of a lower base, if you have a growth in europe it might be slightly stronger than u.s. next year and greater earnings coming through in europe because of the operating leverage which is higher we think european equities have good upside. but u.s. as well and also an overweight to emerging market. >> stocks, stocks and more stocks thanks very much >> thank you >> one of the biggest in the s&p 500, up about 4% streaming giant raising prices could it hurt subscriber growth? a lot of outreach last time netflix tried to raise prices. the nation's largest student loan servicing company hit with major lawsuit. we will speak with the man leavg athae xtinth crgne

1:15 pm
1:16 pm
netflix is one of the top three gainers of the s&p 500, company raising prices that is boosting the stock price. julia boorstin with more julia? >> investors and analysts believe that netflix has pricing power with 50 million plus u.s. subscribers. netflix's first major price hike in two years standard service going up $1 o to $11 and preemmium up $2 to $. basic plan remains at $7.99.
1:17 pm
netflix noting that now subscribers can now download shows, robust content including new films. despite growing competition from amazon, hulu and hbo, ted said earlier this week that the company's growing content is worth it and paying off. >> the idea that there is too much out there is silly. a very kind of analog idea of what -- of how to make programming choices. for me, next year our budget is closer to $7 billion for content. >> michael packard, despite a sell on netflix shares, says he expects close to zero attrition from the price hikes a lot of bullishness today on the stock. >> thanks, julia boorstin. let's look at what the latest price hike will mean. senior internet analyst joins us now, rob, great to have you with us
1:18 pm
is there any concern people will balk at increases? >> very little i think what we saw last year, last two years, water fall of price increases. i think some poor messaging on the ungrandfathering two years in a row of raising prices little bit after scare of a sca of joining slow down but at the end of the day, the amount of attrition i think ended up being less than a percent, in my estimation. so very, very little >> what does this mean at end of the day is for netflix i assume you raised estimates on the revenue side for kpt >> yeah. >> per user -- >> that's right. and yeah you know, back on to the comment that ted was just making about $7 billion in programming, you know, growing from 6 to 7, and we're talking about a price increase that has been outlined, that's bullish for the margin story. i think they are doing what they set out to do.
1:19 pm
mon advertising better great value proposition. a lot more back into investment and content and growing the business at a nice rate. >> does that mean they are profitable per subscriber at this price level >> yeah. they are knocking on the door already before we even roll through the subscriber growth and the price increases. so the profitability story, i expect, has already been up a lot this year and we're at the beginning of what i think is a good margin story over the next several years. >> is netflix the new espn in other words, the must-have that people will absorb price increases. they don't want to be without it because of quality of programming. variety of selections you can have picking up existing shows or movies? >> yeah. i think that it is getting to be a must-buy i think we still have room, you mentioned 50 million u.s. subscribers. it is about half penetration of the total available homes. i think over time it will become
1:20 pm
a must-have. because what they are doing with this big budget is they are able to address the different people in your household. whether your kids, teens, wife, yourself, whom ever, and they are better able to service niche interests. i think it is becoming that and will grow into becoming the must-buy >> how high could they go? >> in terms of pricing power >> yes >> if you look at the hours of consumption compared to the dollars per hour, it is a pretty simple calculation they are a fraction of what people pay for cable television service. so you know, less than 40% so there's quite a bit of upside, i think, in terms of filling out that value proposition and getting adequate m montization for it >> 20 bucks, 40 bucks? >> depends on content. but their ability to deliver
1:21 pm
more, obviously grows along side that, and one of the beautiful things of the story sun like any programmer in history, they are able to scale that budget globally that's the thing that internet delivery gives you over pay tv systems. can you put it across so many more homes >> that's the thing for am zone as well as hulu and other services in terms of pricing power for netflix, aren't they sort of boxed in amazon, you get that free with amazon prime you might think of a whole other service with video content i don't know what i pay for hulu at this point, 10 bucks or so. aren't they boxed in in terms of what they can actually charge? >> i think the pricing umbrella in this country is set very, very high by pay tv. that's expectations for video services is. large umbrella to grow under so where that ultimately goes is hard it tell it'll be a function of the programming budget and their ability to deliver
1:22 pm
things that you can't live without and you have relative elasticity and keep in mind we are talking about the price of about one movie ticket >> yeah. >> movie tickets are pretty expensive. thank you. rob sanderson. >> stay home and watch netflix >> exactly, right. >> all right, navient stock plummeting we will talk to the attorney general who is bringing that suit and with so much student loan debt millennials have trouble affording a down payment for a house. so what do they do get help and not necessarily from mom and dad. we will explain that one next. thank you so much. thank you! so we're a go? yes! we got a yes!
1:23 pm
what does that mean for purchasing? purchase. let's do this. got it. book the flights! hai! si! si! ya! ya! ya! what does that mean for us? we can get stuff. what's it mean for shipping? ship the goods. you're a go! you got the green light. that means go! oh, yeah. start saying yes to your company's best ideas. we're gonna hit our launch date! (scream) thank you! goodbye! let us help with money and know-how, so you can get business done. american express open. so you can get business done. this ♪s electricity. this is a power plant. this is tim barckholtz. that's me! this is something he is researching at exxonmobil: using fuel cells to capture carbon emissions at power plants. this is the potential. reducing co2 emissions by up to 90%... while also producing more power. this could be big. energy lives here.
1:24 pm
1:25 pm
say you want to buy a house but don't have the money for a down payment, common problem don't worry, though. millennials have a solution and they've told diana about it. what have they told you, diane >> millennials today have high student loan debt, pay high rent and when they started in the work force they were underemployed. add it all up and it doesn't equal enough to save for a down payment for most millennials like so much else, why not crowd fund it? >> this is a product we think is timely we think it is a product that will be main stay probably within the next year or so >> cmg financial and mortgage lender is launching home fund me first on-line platform to give home buyers a way to both market
1:26 pm
their needs and receive multiple small tax free cash gifts from anyone to finance the down payment on a home. previously lenders limited asust ins to close family members, employers, nonprofits and religious organizations all with significant documentation. this pilot program has the blessing of fannie mae and freddie mac which finances the vast majority of loans today i asked if they had concern that those asking for down payment wouldn't have any skin in the game for purchase. >> the skin in the game is a confusing concept. if you pay for your closing costs is that skin in the game would you rather have someone have a lot of money in the bank they buy the home or no down payment for the opposite we have a lot of questions and a lot to learn when it comes to the role of down payment >> the idea is to link this to wedding and baby registries and in most cases add to the savings
1:27 pm
you already have which could help you avoid higher interest rates and mortgage insurance more information on this always on-line. cnbc.com back to you guys >> thanks very much, diana we are joined by our own marcus lemonis. he spoke yesterday with governor of puerto rico and today out on relief missions. hey, marcus, what are you seeing down there >> you know, michelle, the thing i'm seeing more than anything else is a broken logistics process. if you are in san juan things are moving nicely. traffic is not bad electricity is up, water is fleing two, three miles outside, and let me be clear, roads and bridges in most cases are working, there are people seeing no signs of any relief no water no food. nothing. at the dock? piles of food. piles of water in the small towns, nothing. >> why do you think that is? >> you know what, i'm not sure
1:28 pm
that the government right now, and i'm going to be with the governor this entire afternoon and command center, really has their arms around the logistics. i asked him yesterday if he understood or anticipated this level of crisis. i think he is a young governor, very smart, but i'm not sure nobody else knows who is in charge here. i met a number of people from world vision and other ngos, they aren't sure who is in charge either. we know there is not a lack of support or funding or supplies but getting it throughout the island is not happening. >> it is not fema in charge of distribution >> you would think so. but no, that's okay, you would think so, but you can't get a pecking order here or any sort of master plan so the governors agreed to take me he into the command center today and to get a bird's-eye view of what is happening. a small anecdote is we were driving our our way to the airport and we saw a burger kngg with the sign down
1:29 pm
they have mobilized their employees. anticipated food they have it logistically under control. [ inaudible they he have their restaurants fully operational. and we look at the island of puerto rico and they can't get water from one end to the other. >> private sector is performing better than the public >> you see water, food, electricity. what about shelter, marcus, as you drive around what is the -- the damage to the housing stock particularly outside of san juan where more of the buildings might be made out of concrete? >> as i flew in the army helicopters, there is clear delineation of structures with concrete that look fine and structures built 20, 30 years ago that in any part of the country, any part of the world, simple wood framework are levelled the most troubling piece now is, you have people in remote areas
1:30 pm
and we were sitting on the steps of the senate building today with fema providers and all of the folks filling out forms. no water, no electricity they are told they may not have electricity or shelter for 6 to 12 months. the number one problem i see here in addition to the bond issue that i know michelle wants to talk about is the exodus of people leaving the island. and saying candidly, i don't know if i'm coming back. >> marcus, you just spoke to the governor yesterday and you spoke extensively about the debt issue which is only getting worse by the day at this point. on top of that, puerto rico faces potential government shut down on october 3 /* 1 if it doesn't get funding. is that really just patch work for the next few months and after that they will depend on revenues coming back in, tax revenues and these people may not, as you said, come back to the island at all. >> the government was very bold and confident with me that
1:31 pm
government shut down wouldn't happen he's gotten some reassurance that he wouldn't confirm where it came from but he's gotten some reassurance i liken this to the retail environment. as you know, retailers go in with black friday and making money in the balance of the year puerto rico has the equivalent where they bank on tourism starting after thanksgiving and going until the end of april as we visit restaurants today and hotels shut down, they have a very pessimistic attitude about cruise ships coming back that's where the bulk of the cash flow comes from taxes here are 11.5% you rely on that tax base to fuel things. if it's not there, you have it mounting problem of the bonds not getting serviced people leaving, work force leaving, and tourism not coming. >> sure, their capacity to pay has gone down. but you know what, it breaks my heart, marcus, when you talk about the people going to be without electricity for perhaps six months puerto rico borrowed more than
1:32 pm
$70 billion and yet their energy infrastructure was never updated. their power plants are average 44 years old compared to the mainland of the united states. they are still running on petroleum. when you look at what's happening there, every single former governor, every single former leader of puerto rico, you have to point to them and say, you borrowed this money and spent it on what because people are dying without water, without electricity because of power decisions that you guys made in the past. >> michelle, i think you have to even take it a step further. bond holders who accepted the fact there is going to be some sit down at the table are asking two questions, how do i get paid and where is my money? that's the first question. second question he is what happened to the money. if a particular bond was taken out, with the anticipation that the electric grid was going to be put up or some infrastructure put up and you see in this moment of crisis that there are electric poles on the side of the road, clearly something
1:33 pm
there since 1960, you have to ask be, okay, who am i going after? what is the investigation that needs to happen? who is to understand where the money went separate to where i get it back. fz whole place needs restructuring. you've been through that before, marcus that's your specialty. marcus lemonis >> quite frankly, i asked the governor if i could sit down at the table. he chuckled. i said i wasn't kidding. this government needs help i think the governor of puerto rico, scientist by trade, needs help as well >> i wouldn't think you were kidding either >> thank you for joining us, marcus >> thanks, michelle. >> now, is it possible, a high school basketball player he could be paid $100,000 to attend a school and head coach of that school wouldn't know good question there. plus panthers quarterback cam newton under fire for saying this to a female reporter. >> that's funny to hear a female

hello, everyone. here is your cnbc news update for this hour. nancy pelosi says not having strong gun laws is the equivalent of not protecting and defending the american people. she asked the house speaker to appoint a select committee on gun violence >> we have to act now. and we're not going away we've told the families, we have to pass something. and all of this just blossomed when something occurs and then we have a flurry of comments from the other side of the aisle saying this is not the time. now is not the time. no, now is the time. it is time for a moment of silence. >> the u.s. international trade commission announcing a preliminary finding that u.s. manufacturers of washing machines are harmed by imports from south korea the case was brought by whirlpool which said it was
1:38 pm
pleased by that ruling a worldwide increase in liver cancer the last 25 years a new report saying over 850,000 new cases of the disease in 2015 resulting in 810,000 deaths. that is up 75% from 1990 the hepatitis b virus was the leading cause of new liver cancers. you're up-to-date. that's the news update i send it back to you guys michelle >> thanks, sue. a new deal bringing college sports from the pacific 12 to the pacific rim. deidre has the details >> alibaba with all pac-12 sports, for last two years china hosted the opening ncaa basketball games and both years the broadcasting of it attracted more than 10 million chinese viewers. just to put that in perspective, thursday night football last week bringing in 15 million viewers domestically including
1:39 pm
amazon prime members that streamed the game. ncaa sports are just getting started in china by joining forces with pac-12, alibaba will have the ability to distribute 175 live network event providing alibaba with new contact for the massive audience as battle for sports content heats up over in china alibaba's rival has partnerships with the nba and nfl for pac-12 this gives them the opportunity to expand its global footprint as commissioner larry fox told us on squawk box. >> globalization is huge priority for universities and sports can be the front porch as it exposes interest and passion. >> the first game, first ncaa basketball game this year is on november 11th. ucla versus georgia tech played in shanghai. this is the latest place of china's big bet on sports content, and in this case, college sports
1:40 pm
>> thank you very much. with money literally coming in from china, many people find it hard that ncaa can't figure out some way to pay players. and when a major standal hits like player reportedly getting $100,000 in cash under the table, not from schools, but from shoe people and others, that the head coach doesn't even know about it. joining us now is john feinstein, washington post columnist whose latest piece is called college coaches know everything going on in their programs even rick p pitino. >> let's talk about pac-12 doing a deal with the chinese company alibaba to broadcast games out there. is this what we should expect more of? >> we are already seeing a lot more of it, tyler. not just in basketball there are several golf tournaments. pga tour events now held in
1:41 pm
asia there is a couple in china one in malaysia. one in japan next year more and more tennis tournaments being played over there. and you're going to see this in all sports this is a huge potential market. not only for athletes and teams, but for shoe companies like nike, like adidas and under armour at the middle of what you're talking about >> maybe i shouldn't be surprised. but i still find myself surprised. that either the ncaa or universities implicated in this bribery scandal don't just pull the plug on their basketball programs for a period of years why doesn't that happen? why don't some of them get the smu death penalty? >> well, the reason they don't get the death penalty is because when smu got it in football back in the 1980s, it basically destroyed their program. as a result the ncaa has been
1:42 pm
very hesitant to give out the death penalty even when major schools have been eligible to receive it if you have two major violations in a period of five years or less, you are eligible for the death penalty. this occurred on several occasions and they have never used it because they don't want these big time schools to shut down and be off television and not being bringing in revenue. >> here with this shoe-related scandal that has cost rick pitino and athletic director at louisville the job, that is a second infraction following on one which had won mr. pitino, i believe, a suspension. a case involving hookers and strippers who were being furnished to the players in their dorm room. do you think louisville should or will get this death penalty now? >> i think louisville should i don't think it will, for the reasons i gave you a minute ago. i have said for a long time,
1:43 pm
tyler, that the reason why there is so much cheating going on, and we only know about a tiny percentage of it, this is the fbi investigation is the tip of an iceberg is because cheating pays you make millions of dollars you get to the ncaa tournament you're on tv adidas just signed $160 million ten-year contract with louisville that's how much money these shoe contracts are worth to many of these big time schools so it's worth their while to take the risk because by the time the ncaa gets around to investigating and perhaps bringing in a penalty, they have already got the millions of dollars and usually the penalties are wrist slaps. only way it change that is to give schools the death penalty and make them think twice before they cheat now they don't >> let me turn to one of my female associates here and ask you about cam newton >> so we played earlier the cam newton soundbite where he said to -- wait, let's play it again. >> play it again, sam. >> it's funny to hear a female

support the revenue reform, that was the oraniginal plan. those don't match so they'll have to get together to have a conference and settle on a final number until then, we don't know for sure it is a fair amount of work left >> forget me for being a little thick there. the 1.5 trillion is the increment of the deficit or the amount of the tax cut? >> it is increment produced by any tax legislation. >> so austin, it sounds loike fo people on the gop side who says i don't want anything that's going to raise the deficit like senator corker and others, they're going to have to getaway on board of what's known as
2:06 pm
dynamic scoring which means the volume of the tax is going to create growth compensating for growth revenue or they'll have to find ways to pay for it it is a pickle, austin >> correct indeed. if you are going to run a marathon, you will are to care a lot about your nutrition well, you got to eat a good breakfast if you are going to run a marathon we had a good breakfast today. they have not started running a marathon all they did was eat their breakfast, this was expected and everyone resume that they're going to pass some budget. the hard part is exactly what you said that donald trump has oprah likes it -- you get a car and you get a car, if you add all those up is $6 trillion. how are they going to tell some people they don't get the tax cut is where the rubber hits the
2:07 pm
road is. >> let me turn back to doug and you can talk about breakfast or whatever you like. on the one hands, you got in the gop where people don't like the idea where people expanding the deficit or the national debt there are a lot of blue state people in congress, california, new jersey, new york, and massachusetts, who are going to be really resistance, it would seem to me, they plan to deduct the state's and local income tax. >> you can see right away the house and the senate did not start in the same page there is some disagreement on how to structure this. the reality is that. there is no tax plan yet there is a framework that leaves out an enormous number of key details where the tax bracket starts and where does the dividend capital gains rate and i can go on. once we actually get a
2:08 pm
chairman's mark in the house when it is chairman brady of ways and means putting something out, it looks like it will do in terms of any deficit it would produce. and regarding the state local tax, the important thing to remember is that nobody should pretend their choice is tax reform or without the deduction. if you do that, everybody has a special provision they want and simply don't get tax reform. the real choice, do we want an economy that's not growing fast enough and a tax break that's broken and verses the reform that's the real choice >> lets get real, it is not a tax reform it is a tax cut. >> austin, you don't know that donald trump released the outline of a plan that's not a tax reform it is a massive tax cut. >> it is a froeamework --
2:09 pm
>> it is misleading och it is an agreementbetween the house and senate and the white house by a framework where they'll actually draft legislation. when you see that, -- you cannot say anything based on the frame. >> you can say what donald trump administration put out in which they outline details of what the rates would be and all the various tax cuts >> where does the rate supplies? >> those adds up to far more >> you cannot say that >> with a question for both of you, why do we see, doug, to know so little so late in the game about the particulars of spg where it has been a legislative priority of the legislation and the gop and the whole year what is the tactics behind that? >> i think probably reflecting some disagreements among the
2:10 pm
principles tax reform is hard it fell behind schedule. i think those are the main reasons. the important thing is recognize that doing nothing is dangerous for america. we really are not performing well we had full-time employee workers in 2016 their real earnings rose zero that's a terrible perform masturbatining. >> what would take it to a tax cut to a tax reform in your view where does it cross the threshold in to reform land? >> if you are doing that in a revenue neutral way so that you are paying for r the tax changes and the reductions of the rates. i think you can get a lot of people on board and a lot of democrats reason board i think what they have outlined so far is overwhelmingly not that if you stand at the edge of a
2:11 pm
great leap, do not take a step forward. >> thank you >> it is reform because you disin incentividi disincentivize >> to me, reform is consumption tax. >> here is what's coming up on "power lunch" where he thinks retail outdoors can double >> we'll bring you those details and you heard of electric cars, how about electric planes? >> the new tech that can change the way we fly all that and much more coming up on "power lunch.

2:34 pm
this week. the officials came out and poured cold water and extending beyond march, we should not extend and putin comes in and essentially says not only we may extend out in march but all of 2018 today the saudi are saying we'll consider extending for the whole year as well i think we are looking for continued coordination >> i see that the oil market did not move so much, we did not seem to believe him. >> it is important when you call afallah out there and the minister is coming out there talking about extensions beyond 2018 that was a new development yesterday when putin came out and said we may go to full year. today is like wow, the saudis are saying it, maybe it is something that we'll look way beyond its march >> if i want wti delivered, what

2:36 pm
it amazon is testing its new option, two-dictatorshay shippi doing it using their own houses. what does it mean? ups and fedex will still be handling those shipments but amazon will be the one calling the shots. in a statement, quote, "we are using the same carrier partners to offer this program including the ups and fedex. perhaps, the most aggressive response is from fedex that quote, "there continues to be reports relating to our net wondering thwork and demonstrating of a infrastructure and complexity
2:37 pm
involved." here is the thing. amazon is building out its network on cost. amazon is only 3% or less of business or ups. this does little to the gross narratives that we are seeing taken place right now. >> morgan, thank you >> lets bring in johnny who covers fedex and ups it is great to have you with us. >> thank you, melissa. >> at that point in time, what was the market discount, i am trying to understand the worse case nscenario for a company lik ups getting 5% or 10% of its revenue from amazon. >> we see that kind of sell off as a buying opportunity. we like the air freights i am sure they face threats and competitive threats from amazon and high fuelling prices that you talked about the big trend is the shift, the secular shift towards ecommerce,
2:38 pm
that's growing of 12% a year and that's benefiting both fedex and ups. >> the pie is increasing even fedex and ups losing a slice of that pie is essentially what you are saying >> the second quarter revenue for ups is up 8% fedex had a problem -- >> in terms of their relationships, how sticky is that is part of that contractual, we are going to handle that last mile delivery. they cannot necessarily switch the business off >> and it is all about service, i think fedex makes a good point of the infrastructure involved fedex owns 650 that's going to get packages there on time.
2:39 pm
>> the tense when i look at the story, is that oh, those guys are going to lose amazon's business, is that amazon is going to be their business and is going to push into their business and take away their business as they have done in so many other areas >> is that a possibility or it is way too much scale for them to achieve >> it is an enormous scale if amazon were going to do it. amazon succeeds just about anything it does it is going to take years and meanwhi meanwhile, like we said earlier, the overall pie, not just amazon is growing a double digit rate i think there is good growth ahead. they're pretty confident >> we are talk about the risk of ups and fedex here >> what's the risk of amazon in doing this >> in other words, they'll have to spend a lot of money if they want to build that network that
2:40 pm
carries extra percentage of its good >> it would be expensive i am sure amazon will run the numbers and they will see if they can get back better sales and service, then they'll probably go ahead. >> when you look out ups and fedex, i am wondering if there is concerns of other major customers who can go that amazon route and of some packages i am only saying that because you got amazon doing that. across the world, you got alibaba making tremendous investment as well do you take a look at walmart and maybe they can handle more and other major retailer >> i think you are always going to see those risks these companies have networks in place and at the end of the day, goods need to get there in two days or less right now, you know as ups and fedex, they can do that best
