november 12th as "worldwide exchange" begins right now good morning, good afternoon, good evening and welcome from wherever in the world that you are watching. i am brian sullivan. thank you for starting your week with us. here's how your money and the global markets are setting up the day and week dow futures down 33. i mean, almost knock nasdaq futures are higher. we will call that a flat morning. one of the big stories though today is oil saudi arabia saying the world's oil markets are well supplied and is now talking about potentially cutting output we're going to take you live to a big oil conference in abu dhabi. the asian markets are recovering japan and asia higher. china barely shanghai up 1%, south korea was down just a bit. let's talk about one commodity you use every day in some form,

oil. prices rising a bit. saudis talking about cutting output after racing it got more on that? ceo of commerce street capital how quickly things will change they don't want $60 oil. they want 70 to $75 oil and i'm talking about wti here. >> yes, i do, brian, good morning. i think you'll see cuts from russia and others as well. i don't think the supply problem is going to go away. >> they call that ropec, opec plus russia. it seems that the saudis and the russians have kind of come together, even a little more than opec as an organization would you agree with that? >> i do agree with that, and i think they realize what's going on and we'll get along a little better than people think

saudi arabia, u.s. and russia are all at record levels of output and that doesn't seem to stop so they're going to have to be some cuts especially when you look forward >> 11.6 million barrels a day here in the united states. inventories which blew out so many expectations last week. how big of a part of the price decline story is u.s. production, dori >> oh, i think it's the major problem for those abroad our break even there was plenty of oil out there. the other is infrastructure issue. get oil to and fro and highways to get the production done. >> higher production is only a problem if you don't have the higher demand to take those extra barrels. how does global demand look to

you, dori? >> well, i think you're going to see they've cut the demand forecast the last three straight months so i think you're going to see a lot of numbers, all going to be soft they'll be different than our numbers here in the u.s. as those continue to soften, you'll see continuing problems with demand forecasts for oil. >> bottom line new year's day 2019, crude oil prices higher or lower than where they are right now? >> i think you're going to see them in the 50 to $60 range rather than the 60 to $70 range. i think it's going to be a lot harder for them to keep that price up with all of the production coming out and right now they're forecasting over 12 trillion barrels a day going forward in 2019. i don't think the world's going to need that kind of demands. >> dori wiley of commerce street

capital. thank you. we do appreciate it. thank you for joining us. >> you bet thank you, brian. the world's single biggest shopping day is going to wrap up you have more on this year's singles day. what did you get me, argin >> i got you a few presents here in china $30.8 billion. in yuan terms, that growth was 7% more but slur than 2017 it was the tenth anniversary and the bar is higher and the company was facing macro head winds. it cut its rev -- they spoke to reporters and said, look, we're playing into pretty big trends

globalization will continue. the middle class in china continue to come online and we are a platform for foreign brands it particularly pointed to some of the successes of foreign brands, particularly u.s. brands had on the platform. you look at apple. apple was the most top selling mobile phone brand on singles day on alibaba shopping platforms. starbucks also set its own new record in terms of sales for singles day buyer alibaba's platforms as well. the day raked in 1 billion orders by al pa ka to consumer they were. they're trading roughly flat i think it will take a lot more than singles day to get these stocks up and the uncertainty around the u.s. china trade war. >> big numbers thank you very much. we'll see you soon.

let's bring in jay rogers, nippon worldwide for those not familiar with singles day, tell them exactly how big this is. >> when you do a billion dollars of sale in the first minute and a half. >> in 90 seconds >> you know you're going to have a pretty good day. when you're up $10 billion in the first hour, you're pretty sure it's a good day 27% might have been lighter than people thought 30,% is like the growth they thought they would get. it's bigger than black friday and cyber monday and bigger than the two put together it's a big day of sales. >> alibaba used to be, you want to buy 75 golf carts, that's where you'd do it. >> right. >> now it's not just crazy it's loreal, huge global brands that are selling on alibaba, correct? >> that's been the big change. they started out with things you've never heard of and now

all the brands are playing in the game and brands sold well. even gap was selling on this big day. so it was all kinds of things like that. and we saw more interest from the brands on getting on than anybody really thought we would ever see everybody wants to play in this market and when you're getting those kind of sales you can see why. where are you going to get that kind of growth in the u.s. as far as the business goes so all the brands are moving onto it. i say all the time, alibaba, walmart, amazon get to divide up the world. the u.s. shopper and that's the try up fit. >> awa >> we're going to have to get an acronym. >> i like it >> let's talk about the united states yesterday, yesterday i went into a jcpenney but it was on the way to an apple store i was going to be there. >> no, there was other people

there. not to pick on jcpenney, but how struggling are they? >> consumers were strong the target said it was the best since july it's the best in one heck of a long time and i say all the time, if you're not winning now, you're losing because consumer is not going to be better than this it's going to be the best in the range so if you're not winning now, you're not going to win. >> that's my point i'm not trying to pick on jcpenney. >> i'm picking on them. >> you can, i can't. we're looking at it from the investor perspective which is if you are a retailer that is struggling now, whether it's jcpenney or otherwise, if things do slow down, it's not going to get better >> if you're not a maps --

maximum taxpayer, then there are problems if you hear the names of bon ton, sears, penny's isn't in danger at the moment because they don't have a lot of debt coming due soon but they do in 2023 and they're going to have to get a lot better pretty fast. i don't believe the kpe cities -- competition is going to let you get better. >> you heard our piece on lower oil prices lower gas. >> best thing i've heard anybody say is that oilt is going to fall to 50 bucks that's the one thing that's been pushing the wrong way against the consumer we will have rising woijs.

if we don't have energy and i don't think they're going to need to be a lot happier in 2019 they need to stay as happy as they are. >> jan rogers, nippon, we appreciate your insights a developing story outwest as the death toll continues to rise and wildfires continue to tear all across california nbc's jay gray live on the ground with more jay? >> reporter: hey there, brian. as you can see, the damage here overwhelming in fact, these areas that are burned out, almost like the sur guys of the moon the puls fires continue to burn out of control the flames growing and on the move again in the california hills. >> the winds have returned >> reporter: the santa anas gusting over 30 miles an hour at time breathing life into three major fires but campfire has

>> those santa ana winds will continue to gust fanning the flames of all three wildfires, brian, through at least tomorrow evening. >> jay, absolutely gut wrenching pictures is anyone starting to return around where you are >> reporter: yeah, you know, very few, brian. the problem is we're getting flare-ups. we saw it overnight and this morning we've seen fire teams come through here making sure there are no hot spots the point a lot of fire officials are making, you'll be back let's make sure we don't see anymore fatalities or serious injuries >> we did a piece a couple of years ago on really low water levels and the drought particularly as it pertained to fighting fires you see the heroic planes

dropping the water. >> right now they say they have it and they continue to monitor it what they need more than anything is for those winds to drop off a bit, get a little humidity where they can and be able to make some headway. remember, we're just talking about containment. getting these things extinguished and put out, that will be months in the making >> live in westlake village. be safe. thank you for bringing us the story. we appreciate it. up next, it is back to the markets and your money merger monday. 8 business dollars ahead we'll take you to one of the biggest oil and gas conferences in the world we are live in abu dhabi as

you've got to keep your eye on energy prices today because oil may be set to break a ten day, ten session losing streak by the way, ten straight down sessions, oil's longest losing streak since 1984 i think when the show "dallas" was still on television all because saudi arabia is cutting it steve sedgwick has the story. >> reporter: brian, you know what it's like in these conferences. you were there in vienna in june it's a bit of a smorgasbord. we came off the plane, australians chatting to the saudis and russians who both said they would do what they needed to do to balance the oil market it comes as a backdrop of raging u.s. production. i've been speaking to the ceo of saudi aramco of course

the big speculation at the start of the year is when the ipo was going to be. that was if the big aramco ipo was going to happen. big question on valuations as well was it worth 2 trillion or was it worth $1 trillion as some questioned as well i spoke to armin nasser, he says he's still going ahead. >> the government announced there was a lot of things. the government needs to facilitate the ipo we would not have to go through all of these things and not to have the ipo not happening >> reporter: so then i was trying to do some numbers. when's it going to happen. we have a $70 billion petro chemicals deal he says that will take a year or so so he rec cons 2021 is still on the cards. that could be the long grasp let's go with it bob dudley is uniquely placed to

look at what's going on in the u.s. because they have huge shale assets and of course huge assets here in the middle east as well i asked bob what he thought about the cohesion within opec and the relationship between russia and saudi which is the bedrock of opec plus now bob thinks the organization plus its relationship with russia has legs let's listen in. >> the opec plus agreement and that coalition i think is actually stronger than people speculate. i think russia doesn't have the ability to turn on and off big fields like can happen in the middle east. that's a lot of things that have to dial up and dial down it's a debate in russia. we know that but i fully expect there to be coordination to try to keep the oil price within a certain fair way. >> reporter: brian, i just want to end on how things have changed so quickly in al gears on the 23rd of

september when they were talking about putting as many barrels on the table as they could to offset iran sanctions. then we got the big waivers coming through and now they're talking about taking potentially a million barrels off the table. isn't that an extraordinary turn around in five or six weeks? back to you, my friend. >> it certainly is, steve. i'll tell you what, what's extremely extraordinary in the last year or so. opec, it exists, and they are together, but the relationship between saudi arabia and russia, ropec, non-opec opec, whatever you want to call it, that seems to be the relationship that's moving the marked, agree or disagree >> i can't disagree. this jmmc has become so important that the iranians say that it's not fit for service and is disruptive of opec.

there are others who agree with you. back to you. >> i'm just good -- glad you're not having to get into a stairwell at 6:00 a.m. >> that's coming next month. >> we're making stairwells up next, raising the red flag. one top investor beginning to get nervous on equities. going to tell you what his clients -- what he's advising his clients to do with their money. later on, the retail rush. singles day in china smashing all records again. we'll take you through the numbers and they are big stick around at's critical think? a basketball costs $14. what's team spirit worth?

>> it's always a concern which one is the over dominating factor, it's over supply. >> thank you for agreeing. >> and we are also seeing that other countries are also ramping up production. so supply is certainly dominating demand. when you look at the u.s. economy, 4.2% growth in the second quarter, 3.5%, you're not seeing a lack of demand on the u.s. china, now they're ramping up stimulus, monitoring policy, lowering interest rates. they're also doing more fiscal policy that's going to mean more future demand. >> because there are -- there are a group of people, there's a school of thought, whatever you want to call it, anthony, you know what it is, the bears in waiting. every time you see an economic number or oil goes down, that's it, we're slowing down, a recession is coming. >> i don't think a recession is coming this year or next year

for 2020. >> that's the problem i say 2020, could be january, could be december they're effectively a year apart. >> we are looking for the beginning of 2020. >> that's not that far away then. >> how do we move? if that's the case, do we start to wind down certain things? >> i think you have to start adjusting the portfolios and moving away from cyclical stocks to more secular type of growth sectors but one of the things that i did was to look at what happens after mid term elections. even a year later and of course you see high rates -- more than high single digit rates of return then because i looked for a recession in 2020 i went all the way back to periods where we had a recession one to two years after the mid-term elections. >> how many of those were there? >> we have 1958, we have 1978, we have 2006 and guess what, brian, 8.1% yearly return 12 months later for the s&p 500. >> i should have led with this

i buried the lead. i'm not good with my job three times basically ever in america we had a recession a year or so after the mid term elections but the next year for the equity markets we still rose 8% >> 8% is the average. >> that's pretty bullish. >> those are the numbers that's what history tells you. >> when you are heading into a presidential election, whether you have a democrat or republican, guess what, they like to win elections. >> they promise things. >> they not only promise things but they start to do things to convince -- >> because you get elected by giving people stuff, not taking stuff away. >> you get elected by having a healthy economy. >> and they'll do it, they'll goose it to keep the economy up. >> doesn't matter if you're a democrat or republican. >> so recession maybe in 2020. history says equity markets could still do well ahead of that what is your single biggest worry? >> the trade situation but even there because this is something

that washington has under some control irrespective of what happened in congress, i am cautiously optimistic that we may see at least a thawing of those trade tensions. >> that would be very positive, you think? >> very positive because right now it's subtracting as much as .7 of a percent off of chinese economic growth. for us, maybe 2 to 3 tenths of a percent off of growth. we saw in the third quarter business slowed down and that's negative anthony chan of chase. always a pleasure. thank you. have a great day. time for your morning rbi. today it's all about the calendar thanksgiving is falling at the earliest possible time this year it's always the fourth thursday in november and since the month began on a thursday, thanksgiving is already next week that's reason enough for the retail period to be giving thanks because the period
