i think it's a little bit of a make or break, we have to see if we can crack above this range. they can have a little bit of an opening here >> we'll get his prediction then >> pepsi earnings are out tomorrow. >> that does it for closing bell enjoy fast money which begins right now. >> fast money starts right now >> i'm melissa lee, tonight on fast, it is a twitter takedown, the stock getting crushed today as the social media giant admits there's a lot of fake accounts out there, but the expulsion of fake accounts could lead to real money. >> thil tell us how much -- >> apple lagging behind, the chart master sees something that has him pressing the buy button. why he's calling for an apple turnover we start off with a market rally. the dow closing at the highs of the day, the dow positive for

the year, with financials and industrials leading the way higher it could all be thanks to the war. ♪ >> the trade war that is it's good for about a 7% gain over the past three months and not so good for china. the chinese large cap etf down about 7% over the same time period could we be winning the trade war? and if so, what are the best sectors to bet on right now. pete >> i think we could be winning the trade war. you decide you want to look at shanghai versus the u.s. that sort of screams that we are winning, essentially, we're flat over the last month, and you look over at shanghai, it's not about 10% the last month under the circumstances, people are able to digest and look forward enough whether you call it a trade war negotiation, whatever you call it it seems to me that we are in

the position of power, i know there's others that might disagree with that, i think we are in a position where we have the power. and i think because of that, we're seeing the financials today showing a little bit of life we're going to see the numbers, we'll find out more about that, these industrials, i think that is an opportunity. some of them that were over sold are starting to get a little bit of that lift, and i think there's a lot further to go. >> we saw nice performances today, do we get the all clear when it comes to the poster children of the trade war? >> if you look and see, caterpillar is down 12%. over the last couple days, are we making the call that we're winning the war. i think what we're realizing, the trade war is not a war anyone is going to win a negotiated settlement, i think we're in a position to exactly negotiate settlements, positive in trade terms no matter what, though, we've listened to ceo's around the world, telling you, we don't

want a trade war they underperformed -- and yes, that's an opportunity. >> well, here's the thing, you talk about who's got the upper hand here, i would say, given the proximity to the midterm elections, would i say the chinese have the upper hand right here they cannot have this thing drag out. most of the republicans do not agree with trump's tariffs, they don't. >> they don't want it to be fair >> they don't want this -- >> no, hold on fp. >> the intellectual property, everything that's going on there. all of a sudden, we have a situation where we slap $34 billion in tar i6s that's inconsequential. >> it's inconsequential. he's tagging possibly 500 billion. >> which is everything we bring in to the united states.

>> i guess my point is, this thing is going to go on. there's not going to be any quick resolution that's the whole point let me add one other thing, it's not just our economic and political adversaries, it's also our allies the u.k. -- excuse me, mexico and canada more than china, japan, the u.k. and germany. we're launching a trade war with them too our allies >> the markets got its head around the fact that when the market throws up 500 billion -- >> the market is retaliating. >> i agree with you about china. china is in control. we're never going to know the real story we're going to see numbers come out, a face that they're going to put on that continues to be a reality. as far as the information and the numbers coming from china,

do i believe them week to week >> that's something we've heard for years. >> supporting dan on this, and saying, they have the upper hand for it. >> when it comes to the illusion they put out there >> right now, the markets are comfortable over the weekend that we didn't get any sort of rhetoric around trade whatsoever the comfort is around the fact that trump isn't going to impose he's crazy outlandish tariffs that he's threatening too. >> why do you say that >> think about tpp, think about iran, think about immigration, think about health care, what they want to do. they've followed through on all of this stuff. >> once the economy takes a hit in growth. starts to slow down that's

when -- >> there's a foot in the trade war. >> we basically have an administration that's benchmarked on the s&p 500 >> if you want to make an argument we saw, reacceleration of risk, aggression or whatever you want to call this. that's where this started, and what's the reason for it >> you have fed out of the way this is a fed that's being thoughtful, i think on both sides of the leather this asymmetric target on pce, et cetera. but again, over the last 4 or 5 days, you've had the emerging market at 6 pshs >> rates are sideways for three months look at the two-year note which was leading the intire year onraits. >> that's the story, folks a lot of this stuff is oversold. >> especially if we get into -- >> volatility has been sucked out in the last four or five trading factors. >> you think that's been an indicator? >> absolutely, without any

question >> to buy protection, yes. >>. >> we were in a different range. suddenly we were in this 14 to 17 range now we're back in the 13s and 12s. >> in january, into q 4 earnings season, and april into q1 earnings season or after -- >> we're sitting here -- it's head scratching, okay? >> as we get into. >> i agree >> it's lack of any sort of -- think about where we are we actually got through the formal event where we filed these investigations it's procedural guys you have 34 billion, 16 behind

it, that's probably it >> you have the fed out of the way. >> do we invest as if this trade war or behind us or we're on the winning side of it whichever way you want to view it you take a name like general motors, theoretically could be hit. i think we're in a winning position does that mean, that every day gm has a shot to grind and get past 44, 45? >> no, but at the same time, i feel like we're in a position of power, we're stronger. that's reflected in what we're seeing in the market and why people have chosen to come back in some of these names. >> let's talk about earnings season you just read this story this morning, bmw has these plants in

our southern part of our country, they make cars and sell them to china, china's going to slap 40% tariffs on that they either need to raise prices, because there's going to be lesser demand we can all agree on that, right? they're going do have to fireworkers in trump country how do you think that's going to play these are the sorts of things we're going to hear about second half 2k3w50id answer if you don't think that's going to take some of the air out of the first half excitement on tax cuts >> what we have to focus on now is cap ex guidance >> don't you think it will be cautious >> wage growth will be cautious? >> it probably is a tenl perred tone you think about the market in general, what's the path of least resistance right now, up or down? >> it's up -- >> haven't they heard from every company that we're concerned about this, and the market is priced in. everything you just said, dan

many. >> i mean, you can't tell me that's not out there >> if we sold off after q-1 earnings season. >> we just said. >> i'm telling you, everything you just said about the guidance, about cap ex or everything they think. >> i think it makes sense to take a week or two if you're like pete. gm went up to 45 filled in that whole gap, maybe it's a good do >> good debate let's settle this. >> bring in former pimco ceo mohammed el ariane >> i want to get your opinion who is winning the trade war, are we >> in relative terms, we are winning and we will win the trade war, and i think just look at the performance of u.s. markets, relative to china and others, that is consistent what happens in absolute terms

i think what the market has priced in, is the following, the tit for tat continues, ultimately, it doesn't lead to a full blown trade war, that we get still free but fair frayed is there a left tail sure there is. what the market hasn't realized, there's a white tail i call it the reagan moment for trade. that when people realize at the end of the day, the u.s. will prevail, it's a less open economy. ultimately you may end up in a position where the global economic terms is better off the market is pricing in -- >> we think about the reagan moment, most people will think about japanese automakers bringing production to the united states. is that what we're talking about more production, more

manufacturing, more jobs in the u.s. >> no, i'm referring to the decision that president reagan took with the soviet union were there risks to that approach massive risks. the u.s. was sure to win that war. you ended up with changing the landscape of europe and changing the position of the u.s. i think that one of the upside risks, it is a tale, but one of the upside risks, you may end up changing the global landscape in a way that favors the u.s. >> if we slip into a trade war while everybody suffers, the u.s. does better in relative terms. >> the trade war is not your only prediction, you brought along two others, your predictions tend to be accurate, we're going to kick it off here, you said the fed backs away from four hikes for 2018, why

>> the red of the world is less solid than the u.s if the u.s. -- if the fed was only looking at the u.s., it would hike four times. however, we're going to have head winds from the global economy, europe is slowing down, china is not in a perfect position, and the fed is not going to be able to ignore the rest of the world. >> the best bet in the world could be emerging markets? why? >> selective emerging markets, because they are subject to contagion, look what's going to happen tomorrow morning, you had news in turkey just now about a political appointment i'm willing to bet anything that tomorrow morning the turkish lira is going so come into scrutiny the particulars in that market are weak you get overshoots of good

names, of solid names that temporarily depression and i think you will have opportunity after opportunity in the coming months as global liquidity recedes, to pick up good names at depressed prices >> always great to speak with you, thanks for your time. >> what do you think of that last prediction? >> emerging markets underperform the s&p by 15% when he talked about turkey, air doe wan named his son in law as the finance minister, not good i think a lot of people know which stocks to buy in china, if i look at some of those mega cap tech names in china, theirs is one you absolutely slip on >>. >> a company that people expected to come out, ipo and

hong kong. >> i think there's some stiff you can point to and say, it's cooling off. when you think about the ninth year of this recovery. we have gloibal stock markets that doesn't act well. there's a lot of things. i don't see us, i've said this time and time again. 20.50 to 29.50 is the range. have a ball, trade the options trade the range of these things. there's a ton of head winds. coming up, twitter getting taken out to the wood shed after the excorsicm. when he wasn't busy attacking the media, elan musk spending a bit of time tweeting about his project to help rescue the soccer team stuck in a cave in thailand is there a method to the tweeting madness apple lagging behind its tech gears the charm master sees something that could mean the stock is

are a little bit nervous, if you will by his tweets, not these in particular, but i think earlier beats about cashflow profitability, et cetera that he has really no policy on, he should not be tweeting on that stuff >> do you want to be invested in a company with a ceo who tweets and goes after -- i think some of the die hard tesla people, they love it this is the guy they're betting on and taking him into the future, to mars, pete. >> i think stuff this weekend is cool it shows us who he is. >> i think the other stuff attacking the press is not useful if i was his board, i would not -- >> none of this is new i don't think he's trying to distract people. >> like here's a shiny object, look over here

welcome back to fast money opinion mega cap tech has been on fire, as many names sit near all time highs the biggest stock in the world has been sitting out all the fun. >> hi, bob >> hello, melissa, it's true, apple has been underperforming its fellow fang brethren in the last couple months it's barely budged in two months it's up a little more than 1%. but goolg el and amazon have been up 7 or 8% in that time period facebook has been up 12% and netflix has been blowing the doors off everything in two months >> don't feel too sorry for apple. apple's earnings are still growing big time third quarter earnings ending in june will be up about 30% year over year. that is pretty amazing for a

mature company netflix earnings for this quarter, it's off the charts, up more than 400% from 15 cents last year, to 80 cents this quarter now, that's why you're getting these phenomenal price moves into netflix you're seeing phenomenal earnings growth in amazon. earnings may be up 120% in 2018 over 2017. and apple is not really lagging the tech sector 37 in a sense, apple is the tech sector this year performing in line with the technology seconder. apple is still a revenue and sail iz monster. you have a few fellow faang members blowing the doors off the top. >> thank you, bob.

our next guest says there may be more trouble ahead for apple >> carter worth is at the plaza, he'll break it all down for us >> we're going to get a lot of good calls and bad ones. my judgment is, that apple is stalling, and doesn't have the upside that other stocks of its type do. so first, here's a well defined chart. it's a chart it has no an notations or drawings by me let's put in some lines, apple has bounced off twrend several times and is responded quite well over and over one could say, what's the issue? it's all about relative performance, if we keep this same chart on top and look at relative performance, what we know is that even as apple has

continued it's not keeping up with the s&p, if i were to draw the lines this way, it's basically, again up absolute, but making no real progress to the market as a pick in and of itself, it's not delivering results opportunity costs would have done better elsewhere. >> if i were to pull this back, apple's performance actually peaked here in 2012 and some six years later, it's made no result relative to the market yes, it's up, but what is interesting, it keeps getting stuck at this level, relative performance and seems to be unable to advance. if i were to not do it as a relative, consider the following, what this is is since 2012 to present 37 you have apple and s&p up 97% as an investment, risk adjusted, what we know is the orange line

is much steadier and better, where as apple has had huge draw downs and had to play catchup, simply to get back to the market on a risk adjusted basis, not as good >> the day to day pattern, my hunch is this. y while we did move above these tops, you have a minor head and shoulders top here apple has the risk of retracing this back toward the 180, 175. i think you want to fade it. >> come on over, carter, michelle will bring the chair in >> thank you, michelle you said before, arch el is the tech sector does, this mean the tech sector is in trouble too? >> apple is a big winner in the tech sector about that relative performance, if you compare it

to the tech sector is worse. if you removed apple, the performance is even worse still. it doesn't -- i think it just doesn't have the word dynamic associated with it, it feels dull >> you mentioned 175, 180 as the price it could check back to, is that firm support. >> it would retrace the gap up >> i think it's important to mention that a few months ago, you thought it was going to break out above that, and it did, for all intents and purposes you've had a nice call here do you get nervous into the september product cycle? i mean, this is a stock that obviously. maybe that's what it's basing for as we get into new i phones in september >> that's a nice softball for me, remembering a good call. second, i don't know anything about product cycles, because i'm not in that i'm in the what business it's stalled what is the product cycle, is it going to get better or worse zm.

>> i look at apple over the triple q's, am i doing something wrong? >> that's the catchup trade having basically underperformed so badly. >> that's totally fair why isn't it -- it's time now, this is where we may layer in some financial stuff like buy backs and accretion, and services and -- maybe it's their time >> you never bet against apple because of the buyback program alone. >> i think there's going to be some interesting data, this is the exact opposite maybe people will look past as they try to pay things like actuals. >> i look at it as all the different growth i'm going away from where you are okay, what does the company have services, but here's the other

one, they will all be saying this, just like they said services years later >> the growth in the whereabouts is astounding, and no one talks about it if you compare 2 to azure, aws, all these other areas we all go crazy over, and you look at just the whereabouts for apples, you would be amazed. >> i think the range bound stock, the funding issue becomes an issue >> it's a tradable range, you trade that range, i look at it and say, the only upside in my opinion for this story is on the services side, the gross margins and the street expectations. >> carter's pointed this out during the last three months, i think this stock is going to be the trillion dollar dock by fall 10% earnings the services revenue is growing, there's all kinds of reasons why i think apple is in charge of their own destiny here >> isn't it part to remember --

>> the first week of may, the stock was 161. and now it's 190 you're having lots of opportunities to trade this thing. >> momentum flags all of a sudden, it did not breakthrough. now it seems a little less inspiring. >> carter, thanks. >> that's a good debate. >> twitter tanking nearly 6% today, on the announcement that they purged 60 million fake accounts in the last month >> starbucks saying good-bye to plastic straws and hello to sippy cup tops is the company putting pits olic before profits fast money returns after this short break. no more lugging your clubs through the airport or risk having your clubs lost or damaged by the airlines. sending your own clubs ahead with shipsticks.com makes it fast & easy to get to your golf destination. with just a few clicks or a phone call we'll pick up and deliver your clubs on-time,

call it the twitter bot exc excorsicm. they got rid of millions of fake accounts >> they're looking to limit the damage here, the stock dropping to a low but then the cfo clarified the company's actions. most accounts we include are not included in our metrics. we catch them at signup, and they are never counted he goes on to say, if we removed

70 million accounts from our reported metrics, you would hear directly from us >> this is in response to the report that twitter has been suspending 1 million accounts a day in recent months scott kessler downgraded the stock to a sell. hedown graded on valuation, this report reminds us he says about risks for the company, a lot of the good news is already reflected in the stock which is up 80% so far this year. melissa, back to you >> thanks, josh. josh lipton in san francisco is a purge good or is it bad for twitter? >> what do you say >> i don't like twitter, let's put it out there on the table. especially this valuation, 20% of their user base seems incredibly extreme to me

i think they publish, it's less than 5% that are fake accounts, and that's probably accurate losing 70 million subscribers would be a devastating thing for the stock. i do think the stock's expensive here, i think there are better alternatives for nvestors, tha will come out in the quarter, i look at it and say, this stock to lose 70 million subscribers, is a big number. >> it won't appear in any of the metrics. >> we saw the stock pair its losses, but it didn't recoup a lot of the losses suffered during the day they go beyond these fake accounts that won't hit the metrics. >> they got more than 336 million users, a lot of these accounts have been dormant for more than 30 days, let's wait for the numbers on the 27th. i think that's the right thing to do. the stocks had a massive run remember the sell off on twitter. and that we saw around the

facebook news. whatever you want to call that situation. it's the same story at play here i think it's a positive. >> our next guest says twitter will bounce back from this battle against the bots. gene munster joins us from minneapolis to tell us why >> i have a basic question, and being somebody who's not entirely familiar with how bots work, i would imagine bots could be programmed so they are more active on a monthly basis than what twitter is using in terms of their metric to weed these accounts out do you have? i mean, how comfortable are you that 336 million mau number is it firm. and that part of that aren't bots waiting to be called? >> well, so we -- of that number, what we think is the most likely piece that's going to be removed, somewhere around 5 # million accounts that's in part on this bot

methodology you're looking at, but also on the level of materialality the ceo talked about today. >> let's assume the accounts disappear from the 336 million at the end of the quarter, that imply a year every year growth that would be down subsequently, so that would be viewed as somewhat of a negative, i just want to comfort some investors here, this would not be some big shift in terms of the growth, it would be a slight acceleration, if they elam natured 5 million accounts, i think there's another big piece here too, this company is serious about cleaning up the broader platform, i think that should make investors file comfortable as well. and third and final piece, this is not anything new today. but this concept of investors getting progressively more comfortable with what was a toxic phrase three months ago, around privacy and consumer data, and selling that, it's like we've blown past that, i

think based on those three factors, we feel pretty good here >> does it make you feel better about maybe -- the mondetizatio is better. but not in a with a to get investors excited. >> when you think about platforms, though. this growth idea is critical even if some of the revenue peruser improved and -- but if the metrics around the core numbers were somehow different than what we're expecting? if they were more negative, there's no way to get investors comfortable around that, even with improving revenue peruser most likely how this plays out it's going to take a quarter or two for the stock to rebound this is going to take a couple quarters to work itself out.

therefore it impacts the valuation in the near term >> what matters to you right now? user growth or engagement? what is it you look at and you feel is the most important metric right now for twitter >> the most important metric is user growth. the challenges we're not going to see that and so this quarter for the june quarter, it's going to be around engagement. we're going to have to look to that that would be the one two. user growth on top the second would be engagement >> we're going to leave it there about thanks for joining us. >> we haven't added users. if that's the most important metric. >> and i agree you look at the exited q-1 17 -- >> you can be disappointed but to say they're not growing it is not true >> they didn't grow. >> they added q-1 '18.

year over year >> the revenues -- >> i'm surprised gene didn't talk about the revenue growth. it's up 40%. >> this is a unique communication and real life broadcast platform that no one else is close to, and they're finally growing. >> that's a premium multiple you need to see the key metrics like -- >> this is a scarce property >> i don't think it's actually coincidental that this thing has taken off. facebook has marched -- >> they have 336 million that's up 10 million year over year that's not success as far as i'm concerned. >> you're going to see low single, mid single digit >> it's been more about engagement, video and the ways they're trying to get back and forth with the clients that are on there >> by the way, i will say -- >> that's all i hear about >> it is about monday etization, that all goes back to the engagement process

i agree with you, in terms of growth, we're not seeing the growth that's been a problem. >> the growth side of it is the concerning side of it for me i don't see the growth i do see the engagement i see people spending more time on the daily use of it itself that's clear >> there's no question that part of the valuation in twitter has to be that it is unique, that it is stand alone, at a time when major media companies -- i think there has to be some kind of m & a premium into the stock the company's going into the business and growing this thing as we want them to >> it's make or break time for the banks. >> the group rallying later today, what to expect, plus starbucks ditching plastic straws cnbc's kate rogers is testing them outside a store right here in times square, hey, kate you're going to be seeing a lot fewer straws out there

square with all the details. >> starbucks announced this morning, it will be eliminating single use plastic straws at its stores around the globe by 2020. if you order a cold or ice drink you're going to get one of these. this is a recycleable strawless lid the company designed this is starbucks taking another stance on a big social issue, not so long after they closed all of their stores for the day of racial bias training, back in may 37 now, straws that are made from alternative materials will be made available. if you order a frappucino, they'll be made of paper and other compostable materials. a major reason for this change is the popularity of its cold beverages here in the u.s. they account for more than 50% of their bench mix in america. that's up 37% from five years ago.

mcdonald's started to phase unite straws in the u.k. and ireland. also don't forget. seattle just banned straws for food and bench companies on july 1st. their former ceo was speaking out in shanghai. a recent slowdown in sales in china will be short lived, anyone betting against starbucks in china is dead wrong china is their fastest growing market the company often says it will surpass in size the u.s., it will become their biggest market one day. they talk about that they hope to get to 6,000 stores over the next few years, schultz also hinted at a partnership with jackba the found offer alibaba.
