3:04 pm
they have been hit by a double whammy apple supplier sky works today the slowdown and demand for bitcoin has also been a big drag as crypto currencies have swooned. investors have been piling into consumer names take a look at the gains for walgreens and starbucks and ulta it hit a new high today. september's worst performer tesla cleeds tleads the gamers >> what a difference a couple of weeks make >> no. >> maybe a play for relative safety even that sounds wrong >> the fang stocks have been

3:07 pm
saw during the top of the the dot comeboom >> big prices last week. made headlines you're looking at luxury goods all of those are falling it is a result of super high evaluations. >> so there's no opportunities in equity markets? >> there are always opportunity. let's go back and look what happened during the dot com crash? so right now what we don't
3:08 pm
necessarily believe you can full-time factors we are tilting away from momentum stock you'll find safety and great return in value as we come out the other side it could be a wlielt before we come out the other side. >> u.s. equities have farther to fall correct me if i'm wrong it looks like a buying opportunity. >> i think they are so overweight technology. if you look at europe it doesn't have technology in things like the u.s. it is just the same story here yes. i think if you look at immerging markets, a lot of head it's lines are pretty negative. it is solid earnings, stable growth and that's where the returns are. >> if we compared back lots of people then said buy your strong cash flow. they should be relative. they were but you still lost money over a year, year and a
3:09 pm
half period. again, does that apply now if you're really barrish should you not jouust buy that >> there is no way to avoid losing money at all. there was a wise investor that once told me that bears always sound really smart it is a terrible way to manage the portfolio. i think going into value names and go into some of the parts of the market that's a little bit less expensive will set you up for the rebound. that's how we are positioning. >> thanks very much. jim is joining us there. let's continue the discussion. we have 15 minutes left to trade. >> so joining our closing bell exclang exchange to talk about this,
3:10 pm
market analyst good afternoon to all of you steve, i'll start with you given the fact that they were the leaders in, you you know, stock gains over the last couple of years can this market rebound without them >> no. it cannot rebound without them they are tremendously on sale. we have seen that in the last couple of weeks. if you loved all of these things since $12 handle on it traded as high as 100 bucks. now it's $63 it was a paper loss. it is still sort of dark and gloomy you need to see the rest of the market catch up. look at housing today. you want that talk about value it has been sold off bad news today and the whole complex is green maybe in certain areas we are putting in a bottom. >> do you agree with him that
3:11 pm
you will be defensive or some of these stocks have sold off too much >> i think it feels uncomfortable right now. that's how it should feel. the key concerns are that growth will go away or liquidity is being pulled out too quickly i think they are both from mature people have been saying all yearlong this is as good as it gets we are really talking about peak earnings growth. it is more of a bullish signal the thing is you'll know when it is tightened too much. we are not there yet to say that we are close or you should be -- >> sorry to interrupt you but the feds should be focused on where the puck is going to be not where it was usually the fed is always
3:12 pm
looking rear window. >> right >> so that's the problem they aul always wind up pushing and causing every recession that we had. >> right but the way you know, but it's not a dimmer switch. it's an on-off switch. if you look at this or when it is incredibly flat but not yet inverted that's where we are today. >> what set you on this discussion i mean my goodness it has been very significant in terms of the move up and the move back down >> yeah. i don't know if somebody really did that i would say rates have had their highest closing levels for the year i think that's hard to do actually in basically two years it more than doubled
3:13 pm
interest rates are to historically low it won't really make a difference but we do. it is like a log jam of credit it continues to flow from investment to high yield and the they are much faster in adjustment the security is in the garage take a long time to process. the whole thing ends up getting bogged down a bit. i'm not saying stocks can't go up again or this is the big one but i do think interest rates have most likely peaked and it will be fascinating to see two things, to see the excellents should the fed tighten in december regarding how we have moved down a bit in rates and how it may effect them and obviously the china story is a biggie the dollar index everybody looked at it and painted it with the same brush it has given up a lot of ground with respect to yields falling
3:14 pm
it is holding a 96 handle. i say it is a bit of a bright spot it is between 4.5% up on the year the problem with the dollar for business isn't its level it's the movement, volatility even at lofty levels if it starts to go sideways it eases the pressure >> a quick final thought, what do you make of the tone there? does it put aside any hopes? i think if anything it should give us more hope. >> yeah. >> the tone from the vice president gives you more hope? >> not tonight tone but look that tone hasn't changed what has clanged is it was seen as u.s.a. versus china it looks like there's more people or at least splitting some differences where it's a lot more behind the u.s.a. it's not just u.s.a. going it alone. >> okay. thanks very much
3:15 pm

rising rates are coming off again how should we think about that relationship i think you certainly had defensives which also had some of the really beaten down groups it is like energies and financials that held up on a regular basis. it will be interesting to see people wiare going for the laggards >> to morgan's questions on rates, rick saying he thinks the tenure has peaked in any sort of medium term per specific ifr but
4:07 pm
what do they look at is it what the longer term rates? >> they would be looking at market rates if you put down a list of what seemed to get us into this weak phase it was oil crashing. it was concerns about trade tensions there you can go down the list and say they have been aleveruatleviate fully reck cognized. oil has stopped doing gown you can still see the down trends it has overtaken the market and lower bond yields ended there. >> and one of the stocks that has been hit is apple after reports that the company slashed production of the newest iphone models it was down 4% today.
4:08 pm
it has been a rough couple of weeks. it is since the beginning of the month. it is a sort of similar discussion point clearly the stock has not shaken out the bears yet. >> yeah. it is a pretty orderly backing off of this stock. it is up 10% year to date. i think through the summer there was a sense of inevident blt i think interestingly the market wants quality stocks they want strong balance sheets, buy backs. they want defensible profit margins. apple qualifies on those kounlts. it's maybe not falling apart more >> it has been very painful. i think part of the problem with apple is the set up. it was such strong stock it held up remarkably well
4:09 pm
headed into the print. you this lack of visibility. it is a free cash flow it is building the recuring revenue stream i think people will come back to this i don't think it is extended at all. the problem is it is still up year to date maybe you see it come down a little bit i will be buying more for sure >> and let's talk through that change and how you'll report that sales number. it is a factor that's spooked. it is at a bad time as well. >> yeah. >> what do you think was behind that and do you think it takes a quarter to shake it off or something you'll say wow, they can pretend to be the hardware sales? >> no doubt unit sales are slowing. it has been slowing for quite some time. they have been able to offset
4:10 pm
that but this quarter you have this lack of visibility. you this new reporting struck clur chl -- structure. they have to get away from this grind of unit sales and that sor sort of thing. i still believe that services, wearables and even iphones are still solid. it gets you maybe a high single digit earnings growth. you're not paying that much for it with a bundle of cash and they are buying back their stock. i understand the bare side i really do. >> we have an earnings alert courtney has the numbers for us. >> urban outfitters duturning ia stronger than expected revenues. 974 million. it beats 968 million
4:11 pm
also company wise comparable sales is up. that's a beat too. by brand it looks like three people were the strongest. it was slightly below what they had been look for. he does say all grands, channels and categories, shares are up by more than 4.35 pngt. is this another reflection are you another on the state of the consumer. >> >> yeah. they seem like they still have a hold on it it was trashed the last coupleover months. relief is the reaction today >> they have dut a we ip i think

4:13 pm
read this. >> one is you want to see a beaten up group not go down on bad news on the other day he mentioned it is a derisking day you sell the stuff you have owned a lot of maybe the stocks themselves are maybe closer to getting sold out for the short term >> short term -- i think it is about the get better for the home builders. you'll have it eaten up. >> and it's going into the late cycle. good for the home builders there's not the right supply for
4:14 pm
the people that are buying it has gotten more expensive there is enough underlying demand if you gate pull back in rates you will see a better balance. i think stocks are ridiculously cla cheap. i have been buying that one. >> could these take this if we come into worse economic growth. >> you can't be heading in and owning these stocks. they are so underperformed really what we are talking about is a step down in growth the fed is not as aggress ifr. i think that's the kind of environment these kind of retrace to the upside a little bit. >> we'll stick with us we'll have more coming up. up next we'll discuss whether or not this is creating some bargains in the market. a pair of top stock breakers are

4:19 pm
going up it means they are demanding a higher yield for the risk they are taking on. ge might get out of here here you see this inparticular >> it is why quality right now it will become more expensive. not that many we'll have to worry about. >> if we go back to the first chart another reason is it is not as scary even if rates are
4:20 pm
going up they have said what they are paying. not much u.s. debt is floating >> most part it's not. some are concerned about the leverage loan market it is a separate issue that's why it is really about the next two to three years when companies are going to have to rollover the debt that perhaps they will have to pay more they cover things fairly well. >> do you think it's the reason why it has lagged? people are migrating to larger cap quality? >> exactly also, if you look at those companies in the small cap they have more debt and a lot more of their debt directly reprices >> another one which sounds like another factor that means we shouldn't be as worried is that
4:21 pm
in 2007 and 2008 banks didn't have enough they were obviously drawn aggressively. >> it is much more about i own stocks. >> it is going to become more x expensive for companies. that's about it. so it's not as good as it was but i think way short of anything that's crisis level >> and when you sent it around earlier i was shocked to see it was 45%. >> thanks very much. a pair of stock pickers tells us if they are finding values in this market. volatility spiking today we'll discuss how it should be and how they should be trading the volatile environment we are back in a coupleover minutes.

4:39 pm
board level? >> i do indeed we are in a very interesting position with facebook one of the things i would have asked them in terms of advertising revenue is how is their advertising revenue changed. i always thought -- i have been doing my research. basically the problem here is that mark skimer -- to virtually nothing can be done to change anything without his buy-in. we have been trying to get them to have a one vote per share model. you know, he is not going for that he has ten times the voting power. what's interesting about that is we have got 81% of the one vote

per share shareholders behind our resolution you know, to clahange the governance >> do you think there needs to be changes >> the important thing for us is this is a community of $2.3 billion they like to be liked on facebook while we can talk about how advertisers might look they go and they generate revenues from where the people are i think until you see a change in users i think we are positive on the stock and the leadership in the company they have problems but they have shown a habit of trying to get through them overtime. we are positive on their leadership we don't advocate any particular change we want to see them create this fabulous community >> so let me ask you a question. i want to understand from you
4:41 pm
why you feel like they have got it under control when for the last several years they have known exactly what was going on. there has been very little oversight or even really understanding of what the implications of the kinds of stuff they have been doing would have on, you know, the value of the company. so in other words they did not know any of this stuff was going on supposedly. yet they made some really crazy decisions. it's like you have them try to go climb out of a hole. >> i think that the point of the matter is that, you know, facebook is a relatively young company. they are really working to solve some of the problems they have already begun to work forward to that. i think we need to give the
4:42 pm
leadership, the opportunity to begin to work through some the problems that they have. they had problems with mobile and with other things from an operational standpoint i think they are listening and think it's time to give them an opportunity to work through some of the challenges. >> so how do you do that when the board is stacked that's what i'm trying to understand >> thank you both very much. >> thank you >> we'll have to stop there i'm afraid >> thank you very much >> to what extent are people thinking these issues will make theme lose users and going to be tougher? >> i think the combination of user disengagement, general sense of management is not trying to maximize profit bltd they are trying to fight other
4:43 pm
battles. plus the massive break in the up trend. i mean i cannot imagine a half trillion dollars company that had a vertical drop the way this one did over the summer and has continued to struggle. >> and we discussed this po potential spat and if one -- if she was to leave or the role was to change would it be bad or can people take that well? >> you do have a sense that people are braiding on their from even if it is am firm mags that she is going to stay. i don't tli she is waiting for the company. we have been our number of people former facebook director may get that question tomorrow as

4:47 pm
that say gives you about a 1% move on a daily basis. if you look at that we are having extreme moves the fact that we near 20 is surprising it's not higher than that. we have had spikes up towards 25 it is kind of a no man's land. >> the highs of the year which you would frame as we got up close to 40 close to 50s level the highs were closer to 30. is that fair >> that's very fair. i think it might go a little bit higher we test that 25 level one more time you know, you always look for that woosh in the market i know everybody doesn't like hearing that because it can be
4:48 pm
painful. i think it is a very very quick mover and i think we get that push to the downside we have had nothing but order ler proves even today. -- moves even today. so i think at some point we will see that when we do it's more of an all clear in my opinion. you get that big woosh it creates a great opportunity >> okay. thanks very much >> absolutely. thanks very much >> and the catch him and the rest of the crew on fast money we have a news alert hi >> brian cornell, the target this eric o y'all can buy back

could more than double that number. but we hope for better. the united states will not change course until china changes its ways. >> joining us now to discuss more on the rising trade tensions from the peterson institute for international economics and christopher thornburg for the forecasting and development. very good afternoon to you both. fred, if i start with you, the president and vice president not so much good cop, bad cop, but bad cop and worse cop with the vice president being the latter and also not just delivering a tough tone whenever he speaks on the topic of china trade, but quite a careful and thoughtful and considered approach as opposed to barn storming tweets. which do you think represents the true view of the administration >> they are both in negotiating mode right now. president trump will be having a dinner meeting with president xi jinping in ten days.
4:53 pm
the objective is to come to a new trade agreement. president trump, vice president are in negotiating mode trying to strengthen the u.s. posture going into that reminding the chinese that they have trade barriers out against china now. i think they want a deal. i think both countries watt a deal. i think president trump wants a deal. i think there is a good prospect for a deal. all of this is rhetorical runup to what i think and hope will be an agreement that will bring at least a truce if not a resolution to the trade war at least for the time being. >> there has been a lot of focus on the tensions between the u.s. and china this past weekend. to me the big take away was the fact that it was at least according to one u.s. official 20 countries against china when you talk about the verbiage looking to be used in the proposed text from this meeting. does this put more pressure on
4:54 pm
china and give the u.s. more leverage >> i think it does. i think the united states has been making a mistake -- >> chris, to you >> i'm sorry. >> excuse me. so, yes, of course. the entire world needs to do something about china. mind you, this administration sort of center focus is the trade deficit with china which focussing is really kind of an incorrect way of looking at trade, but the broader picture is china has continuously violated the basic tenants of the wto which they joined. it is about time someone stood up to them and said enough is enough. the u.s., of course, needs to be the leading country in that coalition. we are the only one big enough to take it on. the fact that other countries are coming up more shows this is really a global problem. while much of the trump administration's trade policy has been largely offbase, on
4:55 pm
this one i'm in complete agreement. >> fred, i will put the same question to you since i know you have thoughts on it. >> china does not want to be isolated internationally. it's very important to mobilize america's friends and allies in this battle against china's unfair trade practices. the trump administration made a big mistake by launching trade wars against its own allies over the last couple of years. fortunately, it has resolved or at least called a truce in those other trade wars. now it can mobilize most of the world in this trade conflict with china. the meeting is very constructive in that respect. it shows that even china's asian neighbors are willing to coalesce to try to get to straighten up and fly right. it's very important to them. it's very important to the world economy. i think it adds to the prospect that we will get a constructive outcome in a couple of weeks and
4:56 pm
hopefully put the trade war at least on hold and maybe better on a path towards resolution. >> thanks very much. we will leave it there. another down day for stocks. we'll recap the big after hours movers next. something is transforming and our world.. it's the longevity economy - americans 50+ driving 7.6 trillion dollars... of economic activity every year. right before our eyes, aging is unleashing exponential growth... ...in every industry. are you ready? we are. a-a-r-p is teaming up with business leaders and innovators... ...sparking new ideas and real solutions. so, what are you waiting for?

welcome back. let's check in on the headlines. l brands under pressure after the owner of victoria's secret slashed the annual dividend in half. that is down three percent. my thoughts on that? >> if it is down on the dividend as opposed to the guidance and the results, it is probably not a lasting move i would say because it is one of the things where certain investors were in it for the fat yield of seven percent and it probably will not determine what happens going ahead. >> another retail move, urban outfitters shares are higher after beating wall street's earnings estimates thanks to stronger than expected same store sales. do teenagers like their brands again in. >> i think they do. i think there are spots for these chain retailers to do okay
