or do we think this is the start of a meaning trend back to where it used to be >> we believe this is the start of a trend about 60 million chi nuz cnese consumers could upgrade to the f iphone x we believe it's a trend towards a super cycle. 260 million units. there was a prove me situation for cook last night. they showed it in terms of guidance we believe underlying preorder demand is up to about 50 million shipments for iphone, it's a positive trend going into 2018 >> this is the most expensive iphone we've had we say that almost every time with the innovation that comes out. why is that important if you're an apple investor and looking at the price tag and strong demand? what does that mean for the expectations >> this past quarter, if you look at asps, the average selling price was 600s we believe that goes to about 750 for 2018
5:06 am
you times that by one iphone and by 260 million, that's the keye. final i think the elusive trillion dollar market cap is in sights now from a multiple and earnings power based on this strength, really you can start to justify it. >> they just got past 900 million. >> still another 100 billion more to go let's focus on that iphone beat. it is very much more pricing that's delivering the sector as opposed to extra volume. is that right? >> right now it's definitely asps, but when you look at volume, if you look at the skeptics, they were saying 70 million, 72 million iphone units for this quarter coming up now it's closer to 80 million. demand versus supply is 2/1. the big issue is can they
5:07 am
alleviate supply issues? they are having a tough time producing the phone given the complexity cook was tight lipped. we believe the supply demand imbalance doesn't happen until 2018 >> in terms of that longer trend, wanting to have a bigger portion of earnings on services revenue, where are they on that in terms of total revenue? >> services when you look, you're looking at something that's 15% of revenue, we do believe ultimately in the next two years, 20% plus of revenue that could be a 5$50 billion annual thing it is key. it's all about the ecosystem and the iphone seeing strength on services even the watch came in better than expected. for the next 6 to 9 months, the key to the growth and the stock is iphone x. we believe this was a feather in the cap for the bulls last

merger talking last week word was that negotiations were falling apart over which side would control the combined company both are up in the early hours if that comes out to be true, kudos to david faber for reporting along those lines earlier this week. the stock is reacting as if that could be true. activision blizzard's third quarter results missed forecasts. active users fell 20%. activision is raising the full-year outlook as it releases a new call of duty game today, but that forecast trails analyst estimates. it's up 1.6%. cbs's third quarter earnings beat forecast, but the revenue fell short due to lower ad sales. cbs earned about 35% of total revenue from ads in the quarter. it owns more revenue per

subscriber from digital versus traditional platforms. pandora reported a narrower third quarter loss but revenues slightly missed forecasts. they predicted fourth quarter sales that fell short of estimates. ad revenue sales rose 1% as they were hurt by the shutdown of offices in australia and new zealand. president trump making it official nominating jay powell yesterday to succeed janet yellen as fed share. the president described powell as a committed leader who would build on janet yellen's achievements on steering the u.s. economy powell pledged to be attuned to emerging financial risks and the impact the fed has on average americans. >> while post-crisis improvements in regulation and supervision helped to achieve these gains, i will continue to work with my colleagues to make sure the federal reserve remains vigilant and prepare to respond to changes in markets and evolving risks >> for more on jay powell and the jobs report, let's bring in daniel dimartino booth
5:11 am
thanks for joining us. some point to jowl's laay powelk of economic experience, he doesn't have a ph.d. but he has other attributes that you like in experience and in tollcy. you can describe why you think jay powell is the right choice >> the first thing to his not being a ph.d. in economics, that might be his best attribute. it's impossible he has not absorbed so much information i understand from people who worked with jay that he is a very quick and enthusiastic study when it comes to economic data i look to the risks that are percolating in our shadow banking system, in our conventional banking system. we have overvaluation spread across a wide swath of asset markets. i like to think of somebody who intervened and investigated solomon brothers yeared ago in his role at treasury as being somebody who is capable of bridging the divide between the markets and the economy.
5:12 am
that's what we heard in some of his opening remarks. >> i was fascinated by those opening remarks. it was a short speech but he found time to say our banks have much higher capital liquidity and are more aware of the risks they run, they are better ability to manage those risks. what did you take from that that he singled out specifically those points and banking risks is that encouraging for the outlook in terms of deregulation >> it's encouraging for the big ef biggest banks he will be working closely with randy quarrels because he always had an eye on the banks and those big bank balance sheets. but i speak to his private equity experience as well. for many years he was at the carlisle group, he founded the industrial group, so i give him credit for understanding not just the conventional banking system but the shadow banking system and how that interacts with ceos and cfos running these
5:13 am
companies who have been on the receiving end of fed policy for so many years wherein you keep interest rates too low for too long you begin to disincentivize capital expenditure and you end up with companies borrowing debt in the cheap debt markets to buy back shares. powell will recognize a lot of these things and be a broad, good leader at the fed >> let's talk about tax reform as well. clearly we got meat on the bones in terms of the aim of the republican party and the administration is to deliver were you even couraged by that do you think it can deliver this significant boost to growth that donald trump will look for >> if you look -- if you think of the country having a rubber band around it, a lot of the states on the coasts, if you will, where the taxes are so very high, you add that to the lobbying power of the national association of home builders,
5:14 am
the mortgage interest deduction is such a sacred cow state taxes, property tax being capped at $10,000, a lot of the specifics that will help to pay for the tax reform i think will be an uphill battle for the current administration and for the congress going forward this is going to be a long haul. >> so your point is you're worried it won't get passed at all? >> well, i think that it's -- i'm not so sure that we'll see that 20% i think that might have come in lower than what some people were anticipating to give wiggle room i would have preferred to have seen a cleaner tax reform bill as opposed to something that just seems to add layers on to what your cpa will be doing for you before the next tax day. >> very quickly, final preview for the jobs number? >> i think this will ab blowout report i wouldn't be surprised if we had an annual 3% gdp figure,
5:15 am
because you don't have four natural gast disasters, the hurricanes and see something well north of 300,000 this morning at 8:30 a.m. eastern when that number hits. >> such a busy day, we only got to jobs right at the end >> thank you still to come, the new iphone goes on sale around the world today. we will bring you pictures of the lines, mrafrparticularly in london where ware vee li at the moment building a website in under an hour is easy with gocentral...

welcome back to "worldwide exchange." the new iphone is hitting store shelves in 50 country thsz mornimor countries this morning arjun kharpal joins us live from london >> there's a huge line here at the apple iphone store at regent street for this, the iphone x. huge cheers when the doors opened here. fans were out in force i was speaking to the first guy in the queue, he was lining up since tuesday. he said i buy my iphone every two years, but this time he bought the iphone after one year because he saw the iphone x as a radical redesign of the iphone something that consumers have been wanting for a long time he's willing to fork out the $1,000 for the phone for that. that's something that the ceo
5:19 am
tim cook is going to happen. the there is a lot of pent up demand for the new devices. we saw it in the earnings figures yesterday. the iphone 8 was performing better than expected the earnings guidance is positive that's a lot to do for demand for the iphone 8 and the iphone x. this is a make or break device for apple. there are supply issues. apple had to sort out the kinks in the supply chain to meet demand many expect this demand/supply balance won't be sorted until about april time next year if that gets ironed out, if those get sorted out, this could be a huge hit for apple. >> do you have any idea in terms of that big queue you're talking about, people coming in, what percentage of people have already played on preorders and are coming to collect their phone and what is new demand that will come in across the world today, those 50 cities where they're available?
5:20 am
>> probably about 200 people in line this morning. a lot of the traffic coming in seems to be picking up the phone. that seems to be the effective way. no one from apple was clear to tell me how many iphone xs they had in stock to give to people who were walk-ins. the majority were preorders. a few people were waiting to get their hands on one it's difficult to tell, but i'm sure the next quarter earnings will give us more visibility as to that kind of demand we're seeing >> a quarter which had great guidance last night. arjun, thank you very much speaking of supply constraints, check this out. more than 300 iphone x devices were reportedly stolen from a u.p.s. truck in san francisco earlier this week. local media outlets say the thieves have yet to be caught. with the iphone selling for about $1,000 each, the robbers got away with $300,000 in merchandise. there's a little bit of a supply chain crimp, too >> yeah. >> 300 less iphones in san
5:21 am
francisco. >> a great way to highlight the price of these 300,000. >> just 300,000. >> much easier than stealing cash you would need a heavier bag to hide a shorter supply in san francisco. still to come, a busy week for president trump, or it has been a tax plan, a pick to run the fed and now he's ready to embark on a major trip to asia. a live report is next. this is not a cloud. this is a tomato tracked from farm to table on a blockchain,

president trump leaves this morning for a ten-day five country tour of asia, but with the goal of passing tax legislation before thanksgiving, he will leave many of his top advisers back in washington. blayne alexander has all the latest details >> reporter: hello to you. certainly big missions for president trump at home and abroad on his foreign trip this will prove to be a major trip for the president. his first time as commander in chief in north korea's backyard. he will be looking at those surrounding countries for help in getting north korea in line president trump leaving washington for his longest most high stakes foreign trip yet ten days, five countries, stopping in china, japan, south korea, vietnam and the philippines. his first presidential visit to the region amid growing tension with north korea the president telling fox news
5:25 am
he's confident his trip and talks with north korean ally, china, will help reel in the rogue regime >> north korea's a thing that i think we will solve, if we don't solve it, it won't be pleasant for them it won't be pleasant i guess for anybody. >> the national security adviser saying do not expect the president to take a different tone >> i don't think the president really modulates his language. have you noticed him do that he's been clear about it >> reporter: while president trump is overseas, some of his top adviser also stay behind pushing republican tax reform. the plan includes fewer tax brackets, higher standard deductions and a new family credit along with a lower corporate tax rate >> some families will be better off, others will not we'll shift who is paying more and paying less. >> reporter: republicans saying the plan helps the middle class. democrats argue it does the exact opposite and back to the president's foreign trip, one thing that is
5:26 am
not on his agenda is a visit to the demilitarized zone that fortified border between north and south korea. the white house saying the president will forgo that visit because of scheduling. >> in the past some of these foreign trips helped the president. it's either taken the focus off issues back at home or given him grounds to make progress abroad. do we think this trip could help his advisers get the tax reform bill over the line whilst he's away >> i think any bit of success for the president would be a beneficial one tax reform is going to be a difficult needle to thread because you have it working in the house, then it goes over to the senate, we know already some senate republicans are saying they're not necessarily in favor of this. they will likely change it around, put their own sauce on it and send it back over to the house. when it comes to tax reform, if it does make it to the president's desk, this will look like a very different version than the one we see before us
5:27 am
now. yes, certainly the fact the two are happening simultaneously, people will be watching both of those and watching them ping off the other in terms of success. >> thank you very much for that report courtney, i would also say to viewers to check out kayla tausche's report on cnbc.com in terms of the companies going on this trip as well. it's a fascinating list. across multi sectors, but looking at my sector, only lloyd blankfein of goldman sachs is going, some other big banks leaders are not. clearly before when there's big trips to the middle east, there's deals for blackstone but not other rivals so going on these trips could be important for these companies. >> coming up, the top headlines and a round of the global markets. plus a sweet story in our trending stories hershey'sedy be eddebuting theit new candy bar in two decades jimmy's gotten used to his whole room smelling like sweaty odors.

5:31 am
"worldwide exchange" on cnbc i'm wilfred frost. >> i'm courtney reagan in for sara eisen we're kicking it off with taylor swi swift's new song >> which chris has said is likely to be the first one on the new album that i like, based on its slow pace >> you don't like the other ones >> it's more my thing. the first couple of ones were more aggressive. >> i like the story of this song, bringing taylor back to her country roots. >> there's other country stars you love >> she's still writing for other country stars, that's good >> let's look at futures we hinted at what they were doing in the open to this half hour we're seeing them point to a higher open on wall street it's likely going to be another busy day with that jobs report coming up and still some market participants digesting what we heard yesterday about the tax bill and the new fed chair, jay powell so you can see shares are

indicated higher for the dow jones by 30 points let's look at the ten-year note and see what the reaction is ahead of that jobs report. pretty much flat unchanged, just above 2.3. >> let's look at markets around the rest of the world. japan is closed today. no big gain as we've seen recently for the japanese market gains for south korea and hong kong shanghai slightly lower. germany is up nicely, 1.5% week to date. the ftse 100 enjoying a big bounce yesterday as the pound softened elsewhere slight gains across the board. ftse 100 up 0.25%. we hit uk services pmi, which was strong 55.6, forecast at 53.4 the services sector in the uk is important. 65% to 70% of gdp.
5:33 am
>> let's look at what's going on with the broader market, starting with oil. yesterday both wti and brent were higher. actually wti was settling at its highest close in more than two years, 54.54 so adding slightly to those gains today, up by a half percent beyond that at this point. look at what's going on with the dollar steadying itself against the basket of currencies not much movement against the yen. we did note the nikkei is closed today for culture day in japan flat here against the pound which is interesting after what we saw yesterday with the pound's fall in reaction to the bank of england interest rate rise the price of gold, relatively flat yesterday not a lot of movement today. slightly lower here, sitting at 1,275. the u.s. market, of coeure,
5:34 am
always in focus. jobs market. the jobs report comes out at 8:30 a.m. eastern time non-farm payrolls forecast to rise by 315,000 following the decline of 33,000 in september, which was impacted by the hurricanes unemployment expected to hold at 4.2% joining us now is david rosenberg from gluskin sheff do you agree we could have a big number over 300,000? >> it wouldn't surprise me we saw a bounce back in the adp. most of the employment components in the survey data have been good, including the consumer confidence survey that came out it would be reasonable to expect a strong number today. like with adp, you have to average out the two months compared to the 12-month moving average. a number close to 300,000, that's a good bet. >> do you have any thoughts on
5:35 am
the nomination of jay powell in regard to the patterns that you have noticed in the past where newly appointed fed chairs often face a pretty big challenge out of the gate with the exception of janet yellen. do you anticipate that's what mr. powell will be dealing with when he takes over >> i think that's a good chance when you consider all the excesses out there and various parts of the markets, whether it's commercial real estate or cni loans on commercial bank balance sheets, credit cards, subprime autos it's not the residential mortgage market, but one reason why the fed is raising interest rates, it's not because of core inflation. maybe some folks are concerned about what wages will do because of a 4.2% unemployment rate. the fed has been talking more and more about excesses in the financial markets. it will be interesting to see what its cadence will be in terms of raises interest rates
5:36 am
and flattening the yield curve further than it has. my sense is that he will be facing quite a few challenges. everybody is focused on the extent to which we will see tax cuts people call it fax reform. it's tax relief at a time when several people in the fed are concerned that we hit the wall in the labor market. to me, the el vant in the room is fed's reaction function at a time when we have a 4.2% unemployment rate. it will be interesting to see how a powell-led fed will react to tax stimulus. what do you think his response will be if his view is like yours, this is late cycle? >> it's uncertain now. you know, i'm not making big bets as to what happens with tax reform any more than you would wanted to make big bets on healthcare reform. what's interesting is that practically every fed chairman
5:37 am
that has been a newbie back to arthur burns made interest rate increases their first move a lot of the time we're already in that process. look what happened with alan greenspan, took over from volcker, raised interest rates, flattened the yield curve and then 1987. i'm not saying that will happen this time around, but we're in the full swing of the fed tightening cycle people call it normalization, that's a nice way of saying they're tightening flattening the yield curve my sense is that -- everybody talks about powell and a new fed chairman but you are very rarely seeing initially that the new chairman puts his or her own stamp on the fed. you have to remember it's a whole committee. the fed chairman has just one vote it's not like canada where it's almost a dictatorship in terms of what drives policy. i'm not making a big forecast as to what powell will do or not do except follow what janet yellen
5:38 am
has already been doing let's face facts here. we're only two to three hikes away from inverting the yield curve, then you will find all the economists out there saying dismiss the yield curve this time even though it's the best leading indicator. >> there's been focus this week on the very strong rallies we saw around the rest of the world during the month of october. the nikkei up 8% india up 6, germany up 3%. to what extent do you think the big market gains around the rest of the world are justified by the economic performance do you worry that's just because those central banks are still facing loose policy and that's just spurring stock market gains as opposed to fundamental gains in the economy >> japan is a more special situation operating on its own set of economic and political dynamics a big sigh of relief over abe's landslide victory there.
5:39 am
in the case of europe, you have ma kr macron making huge strides in terms of pro business policies and cutting taxes. that's helping out sentiment on the european side. in the u.s., i think you have very powerfully positive seasonal effects there's obviously some positive sentiment. this is in my opinion a sentiment driven market. not taking anything away from the corporate earnings corporate earnings, we all know, are beating estimates. in the past coupleof months, a lot of the clouds have dissipated two months ago, north korea was making the headlines all the time it's not making headlines now. even though i don't think there's going to be anything big in tax reform coming, the hopes are high compared to two months ago that we will get tax reform. the economic data has held in reasonably well. we're in the space now where
5:40 am
you're taking sour cream and turning it into ice cream in the sense that the hurricanes two months ago were thought it will tip the economy over far from that. as we saw in the third quarter data, as we have seen back-to-back auto sales data what's happening now is a lot of stimulus from the rebuilding efforts following hurricane irma and harvey look at the ism report that came out the other day. all the commentary from the industries that reported, the stimulative effects of the hurricane are reporting through to the data. it's part of the artificial but creating positive sentiment at a time when equities tend to do well >> david, as always, pleasure to see you. david rosenberg. >> thank you stocks for you to watch today. apple blowing past wall street estimates in its latest quarter beating every major metric the company offering an upbeat forecast for the holiday shopping season, too that's alleviating investor concerns about iphone x production delays. the new device hit shelves
