have missed the move to some degree traders playing this rally, i think it got a bit overheated. there's bifurcated sentiment long term money, unsure whether they can extrapolate this move the real professionals who are in every day, they're well in and i think you saw them get to extremes last week >> we're out of time, that does it for "closing bell." >> "fast money" begins right now. live from the nasdaq market site, a clean and spiffed-up times square, "fast money. savrita subramanian from bank of america skushecurities is with s apple is soaring, now a $300 stock. if only by a whisker is there any juice left in apple's record rally plus tesla has the new biggest

bull on wall street. we'll tell you who sees another 20% upside for this rip roaring stock. later, it was one of the best performing sectors of 2019 we have the one chart that shows the biotech boom may just be getting started. we will bring it to you. we kick things off with a record start to 2020. the s&p, the dow, and nasdaq all, all, closing at all time highs. just investors keep riding this record wave or is it time for a new strategy for a new year? steve grasso >> can we sit tight and be happy? >> all traders are not back, this is still a holiday week think about what worked last year that's what worked today tech industrials are ripping today. communications ripping today so i do think you can sit back, but beware of a selloff q1 does that sound a little ironic the way i say that

but yes, you do have an opportunity to buy a dip in q1 >> last time i was here you were saying the same thing, beware the ides of march of >> true. it's not healthy to have apple double dip performance it probably doesn't get much better than that that contention centration of m. what did the s&p 500 do in the last hour? it kind of dragged up. that performance reminds me about what worked in late december 2017 into 2018 and we had the s&p 500, we had a nasdaq up 8% as we headed into the bulk of q4 earnings in january. these setups are treacherous in a lot of ways for a lot of investors. if you didn't do a whole lot in a year by last year to reduce your risk, you're going to start

thinking about it now. to steve's point, if everything works until we have a reason to sell, it's kind of hard to get out of the way in the meantime >> away climbed a wall of worry, karen, in 2019, that was basically defined by trade it now looks like there has been a breakthrough on trade. maybe that wall of worry is still there but maybe it's not as steep as it was >> we have a supposed date for a signing of the first of the phase i, whichever that is i don't even know what's in it i'm not that impressed it's a secret deal, very secret. we may never know what's in it i'm a little skeptical on that clearly if there were trubloubls there and that didn't happen, we would see a big whoosh down in the market when apple is up on no news that we saw today, worth however many billion dollars more, that's scary to me. i do own it, i'm nervous about it, because when you have a big

run-up into earnings that bar is higher and higher. if they keep running up like this, and have a blowout quarter, it may not be enough to sustain where it is now. i hate when the market is like this >> you might see a little bit of a multiple expansion with apple. >> we've seen a multiple expansion. >> i totally get everything that would worry you and dan said it too in the past, it is still a hardware company but when you look at services and that number at $46 billion, when you look at streaming and everything else that seems to be clicking, that to me means further multiple expansion i wouldn't be nervous about it >> we saved the guest for last >> i think i agree, today is kind of a vacation day it's a pseudo vacation day most people aren't sitting at their desks.

>> the traffic is great coming in >> exactly, that's the tell, nobody's here in midtown trading. and i think that the moment of reckoning comes next week. and our model, so we track a variety of predictive signals, and our best short term predictive signal is earnings revisions which are more downward than upward over the last 30 days that's trending way below average, which is never a good sign for the next couple of months' performance. i think we'll see an up year again. nothing like last year >> it would be too much to expect that you would have a year like this year. >> i think that would be kind of -- i mean, i don't know what gets us there. maybe if interest rates go to zero or negative and there is literally no place to go except the s&p 500, maybe we get another blockbuster year but i think the first quarter will be a little messier >> i guess i remember, was it '07, '08, two big back to back

years? >> '07 karen made a good point, piggybacking on what savrita just said. if you're a management of a company and you realize that your stock price dramatically benefitted from multiple expansion, you're likely to be a bit more conservative than you would be otherwise, because the pain that you will feel if you get that wrong, right, if you actually give overly aggressive guidance and then not only do you miss but you have to guide down again for the full year, that's how stocks get put in penalty boxes. so i just think the idea of conservative guidance for at least the first half of 2020, especially as we don't know what is in that trade deal and when phase ii comes, that will continue to be a headwind, at least on management, how they think about capex. >> i said '07, '08 i'm older than i thought

i was thinking '97, '98. those were big back to back years. >> '98, the russian debt crisis happened in august those were big years >> we're talking earnings here on that note, earnings could be a big "x" factor that pours cold water on the record rally, or not. bob pisani is at the new york stock exchange with some thinking on that >> reporter: hello, tyler, good to see you what a difference a year makes on january 1 last year, the markets were pricing in a recession and stocks were pretty cheap. fast forward one year, essentially the opposite, the recession of course didn't happen, the earnings recession didn't happen either the economy is strong. but stocks have gotten rather expensive, 18 times forward earnings, a little pricey. the issue is whether we can finally return to earnings growth after an essentially flat year in 2019 most strategists are expecting

mid- to single high digi earnings growth, taking some pressure off the market right now. early reports from companies reporting at the end of november are kind of mixed. there were big names out there fedex, nike, micron, general mills, carnival, they all saw their first quarter earnings estimates reduced by analysts after those reports. a few like auto zone and costco are seeing some earnings estimates increase the overall trend, she pointed this out, she's right, somewhat lower than expected for earnings growth looking at the risks in 2020, markets are at new highs because many believe the risks from trade and tariffs is lower that's a big factor. second, the risk from the fed raising rates also lower as they will likely remain neutral decent job growth, risks from the u.s. consumer lower. there's risks elsewhere. buybacks, corporations have been buying back stock for ten years. there may be a limit how far that can keep growing.

i find high risk a little bit believe it's unlikely 2019 will be a bottom in the global economy. nothing's changed in europe with very few structural reforms. another issue showing up a lot among strategists with wage growth many believe wages will likely be higher in years to come, putting some pressure on margins, tyler, not out of the woods yet. >> dan, do you agree with what bob just laid out, more moderate earnings growth this years, moderate, not more moderate, but moderate earnings growth, and some of the threats that he sees >> i think he actually threaded the needle pretty well there we know we had the benefit of the tax cuts kind of -- you know, we know what global trade, what tariffs did to that if we had moderate or low interest growth and a lot of

headwinds hanging around the rim, that's where you get to savrita's scenario where you have an up year, single digits, then you're playing for 2021, a new administration or a continuation of the existing policy but more clarity. to me, i think you're going to have all of those uncertainties sticking around. you'll have much more moderated equity gains if you do have equity gains this year and i don't like to see them front loaded in january. that doesn't set up right. >> you have the uncertainty, that's what makes the market go higher once you have some of this smoke clear, that is a sell-the-news opportunity. for me, that's why it was genius to roll out trade in phases. it keeps the bears back on their heels. >> you want to know something really weird about 2019? even though trade was the big negative over the world at large, the best set of stocks in the s&p 500 were the stocks with the highest foreign explore.

the best sector was technology, in the crosshairs of the trade war we're supposed to be having. i don't think 2019 saw the reaction to trade. i think we faded that and tech stocks ripped. >> let me try to understand what you're saying, the fact that trade deals may be phased in over three stages or however many stages there could possibly be >> right >> you don't think that was calculated to help the market, do you >> why wouldn't it be? i don't know if it was or it wasn't but it has, because for all of us at this table -- >> in other words, you've still got the worry of -- >> the term of "sell the news," "buy the rumor, sell the news," exists for a reason. once you get a, quote unquote, trade deal, i think it's a super signal to be a seller of the market >> yes >> versus me being caught on my heels. if you have phases of a deal,

you always have something to worry about. so the longer people climb the wall of worry, the higher the markets go, because you have people saying short it, then have to scramble for cover once things come out that are more positive >> so savita, let me come back to a point you made a moment ago, the idea that earnings revisions are coming down, more negative revision. >> yes >> it was like you and bob pisani had just talked to one another. >> maybe we have >> maybe you have. they don't call you savvy for nothing. >> there he goes >> a long list of those affected negatively >> right this is kind of a standard setup, everyone kind of guides down on pretty aggressive earnings the street right now is forecasting 10% earnings growth for 2020 i think that -- i think we can get to 8% but maybe not 10%. i think where the street is overly optimistic is on

buybacks, because -- and bob mentioned this as well, but i think that the street is forecasting run rate buybacks similar to what we saw in 2019, which was a record year for share buybacks and i don't think we see that again. >> why not >> for a bunch of reasons. the most important of which is that investors don't want companies to buy back their stock anymore. so in our fund manager survey -- >> why is that >> because balance sheets show levels close to 2007 levels, close to 2000 levels they're close to market peak levels we don't need any more reduction, we need companies to pay down debt rather than buy back shares. share buybacks haven't been generating alpha those stocks didn't outperform the market if companies are continuing to do this, they'recontinuing to spend capital on buying back

shares and juicing up their per share metrics which in a way is lining their own pockets, i do think that the market is looking less favorably at that aspect, especially given how high leverage ratios have grown for certain areas. >> buybacks and earnings are two things that may not live up to wall street's expectations this year what else is out there let's break out our 2020 contrarian playbook. you just looked right into it for one of those right there steve, kick us off >> i think the element of a new year, let's buy the laggards, let's buy the things that haven't performed. what hasn't performed? energy hasn't performed in the last ten years, last five years. but you do get these tradeable spots. xec, rig, wpx. you can buy them, but they're simply just trades these stocks, rig and wpx, have

been up 30, 35% in the last month or so. that's a trade, not a long term investment i don't think that energy will lead this year it will continue to be a laggard. >> sort of a sucker's contrarian >> draws you in, great for a trade, but most of the people who buy energy buy it for a long term investment, those people who bought mobile or exxon/chevrons of the world. >> karen, when you say abroad is where we might well go >> yeah, i think the u.s. has been the best place to be by a lot, when you look at the different metrics, whether it's emerging markets or -- well, china is considered an emerging market for example, the uk, we could see some clarity we will see some more clarity on brexit in pretty short order

almost regardless of how it ends up, i think clarity is important. and that will help -- the uk has been sort of sideways for a while. that's a huge economy. that would be someplace that could outperform japan could be another market that would outperform. so i feel like we have had a really, really good run here and i would rather be looking elsewhere, even if it's higher on the risk curve. >> you say 5g was -- >> and you were right, '97-'98 >> you stepped all over my thing here wall street loves to sell people buzzwords and 5g has been around for a long time. you remember when 2g was going to be the big thing, then 3g, then 4g. they always take longer than expected what's interesting about 5g, if you're expecting a handset upgrade super cycle because that have, i wouldn't be betting on

it we just talked about apple, up 85% last year on earnings and sales growth that were flat year over year from the prior year. it's incorporating a lot of excitement about a 5g phone at the end of 2020. i don't think that will be a big driver for a company that has not grown iphone units for three years. i think about that, i also think about semiconductors i think obviously that has been the play, and the track is up 2.5% on 5g an important fact, let's bring in the trade thing here. huawei just introduced a phone, an iphone competitor, it's called the mate in china it does not have a single u.s. chip in it as long as our trade war goes on, the likelihood that we might sought some double ordering last year into 5g handsets into china could be a thing we could see a slowdown if we don't see demand for u.s. 5g phones

i just don't think it's all going to happen the way people think it is. i wouldn't be buying semis and apple for a 5g rollout by the end of the year. the carriers, especially in the u.s., they're really bad at this stuff. we have 4ge, we have 5ge for evolution. they're not going to be there yet. this is not a reason to upgrade your $1,000 handset. >> did any of you all notice that ryan seacrest is still out there? >> it's so cold. >> greatest story ever told. unbelievable coming up, our call of the day. why one analyst thinks tesla, even after its recent run, has almost 20% upside from here. and later, shares of china's jd.com soaring why one trader says this rally is just getting started. ryan seacrest is down there. carson daly is coming. there's much more fa"fast money" after this >> announcer: this cnbc program

move to the downside a trial failed to meet its primary goal the disease is essentially an immune reaction that can happen after a stem cell reaction you're seeing incyte down 10%, quite a sizable move on this, unfortunately disappointing news >> meg tirrell, thanks very much we'll talk more about biotech in the hour switching gears, shares of tesla revving higher today after the company says it's gearing up for the year the rush to electric vehicles is being predicted to push tesla's stock price to the highest target on the street we just heard from the analyst behind that big call here is how he justified the $515 target. >> if we look at the momentum coming into this year we see several positive factors we

frankly didn't have last year. when we look at that and we kind of add up what they're going to be introducing, and the fact that many of the bear signals are not there this year, that's really what gives us our bullish stance >> karen, what should i do with tesla, buy it, hold it, what >> i don't know. it's been too volatile i read his piece he's very optimistic on the top line, way above the street on revenue growth he really believes the evolution of the story the thing that is working well in tesla to me is the part of tesla that bears loved was they're going to need to raise more money with the stock up here, not only could they raise more money in the equity market but they're convertible debt will convert to equity that won't be debt anymore there's self-fulfilling virtues cycle, as the stock goes up, those issues fade. if one of the bear's legs is

pulled out from under them, i don't know, what do you do with a one-legged bear, i don't know. >> when you look at a level, dan and i saw the same level back from 2016 to 2019, around the 176, 185 level, where you could play for a technical bounce. what i love about the stock is on an rsi, relative strength index, it does work off overbought pretty quickly. it took 9%, and that's nothing in this stock, for it to unwind on overbought status and ramp right back up again. it's currently overbought. maybe it does pull back a little some technical overshoot levels in this name bring you up to these price targets. it's not unreasonable to think if the company doesn't have a debt issue as karen alluded to in the beginning that you can see some of these really high, lofty prices >> it's always perplexed me that in the field of electric vehicles, it seems like it is tesla and almost nobody else but i keep hearing that others

are in the game. >> they are, they're going to be listen, you have to go back to this these guys will maybe sell 380,000 cars this year in the u.s., the average selling price of a car is like $35,000 the next leg of growth for them is in china. the average price is $15,000, okay i have a deposit down on a ford mustang mach e that will be delivered in the fourth quarter. that's excitement. they haven't had a lot of competition, it's a new sort of thing. at the end of the day, it has a $77 million market cap, basically equal to ford and gm, who sell $270 billion worth of card, that's 10x of what tesla is supposed to do this year. you talk about that balance sheet, they're a recession away from not selling cars on the average selling price of well over what they are here in the u.s. and all around the older. and then that balance sheet comes into question. to me, i've been wrong for probably since 180, not since

180 but for a long time, steve it's a tough stock to buy. if you're buying it for 420 for 520 at this point, a lot of the good news is in it >> for more on that bullish call on tesla, head to our website, cnbc.com here's what else we have coming up on "fast." >> announcer: chinese regulators making a surprise move that sent shares soaring overseas. how the decision will shape investment opportunities in the region this year plus flying high the call that's got investors in united airlines setting pretty today. all thatndorwh "st moy" returns sounds like we havd society. but nothing could be further from the truth. americans are compassionate and hardworking. we aren't failing. our politicians are failing. that's why i'm running for president. to end the corporate takeover of the government. and give more power to the american people. that's how we'll win healthcare,

money. wall street closing at new all time highs today thanks in part to a big rally overnight in china. the shanghai composite, the shenzhen composite, and large cap etf all soaring on this first day of trading that's all the words i got cnbc's beijing correspondent, we're happy to have you here, eunice yoon. >> the china central bank had decided to cut the amount of money, cash, that banks were required to have on hand by 50 basis points, effectively injecting $110 billion into the chinese financial system this happened earlier than everyone expected. everybody was thinking the central bank would make this move it was ahead of the lunar new year holiday which normally sees these cash and liquidity

injections it was an indication to analysts that we're going to see more targeted cuts to come. then add to that the beijing leadership has been indicating that stabilizing the economy is a major priority for 2020 and a large part of that is because in 2021, there is going to be a big party for the communist party because it's the 100th anniversary for the government and at that time, they have promised that the country will have a moderately well-off society. and by that they mean doubling the gdp and per capita gdp from 2010 to 2020 people take that to mean 6% growth for 2020 and making sure the economy will be stable >> this is a first move of stimulus, more to come, in all hide >> yes, very much more to come, targeted targeted they've been doing it for quite

some time. >> it's not a year or two years. this is the eighth time they've done it. >> yes >> the growth china has is enviable, but when you compare china to itself and see the lowest growth in 30 years, is there any panic that goes on in china? do they say, how do we keep this train on the tracks? >> yes >> because it's just not enough for the world anymore. >> for years people in china were used to the double digit growth so when it started ticking below double digits there was already some panic now that it's gone down to 6%, even though it's a big number in most countries, there is concern about what this means. a lot of times is because of the way chinese government officials have traditionally been rated and measured by their success for a lot of different things including promotions it's all on the economic targets and media economic targets the government has been trying to move away from that but it's prevalent within the bureaucracy. >> how big is the trade, we

spent months talking about the trade deal, how much is it a topic of conversation in china >> it's a big topic of conversation i don't think it's the main reason why the economy is slowing down, but there is concern about what this means. it's been affecting consumer sentiment more recently, people would say, oh, i can't find something in the grocery store, so it must be because of the trade war. so there is -- and especially within the manufacturing sector, there is a lot of concern about what this means. >> stick around. when we pivot to chinese tech stocks, some of those stocks did very well today. >> eunice just said it, there is a move towards consumers it was in alibaba, tencent all names that i think a lot of investors would say without the trade war, they would have been higher year over year, so let's start off the year up 5, 6, 7% that doesn't sound like a great way to start the year. but with that sort of

confidence, and eunice mentions the fact that, listen, this is a one-party system over there. they will do what it takes to keep the train on the tracks, it's that simple >> right >> it seems like it's that fed put we had here from a few years back they'll just keep cutting or doing whatever they have to do you can't argue with it. it's just sort of a gravitational pull upward. >> but how much of today's move is anticipating the future stimulus rather than what just happened >> i think a lot of it is having to do with the future stimulus even though it's targeted, there's still a debate going on in china as to exactly what that means, because the government understands the overhang and the problems from stimulating too much but at the same time they don't want this train to go off the tracks so that's why people are expecting that -- >> one other thing, when everyone says china is in a better position on a negotiating front, china doesn't like to lose when you start to see the supply

chains, granted these are long term events that it takes a while to turn the ships around, but whether it's incremental or percentage-wise or more than enough to move the needle, they don't want to lose that. so they have a vested interest in getting this deal done before they lose an apple, even incremental, or someone else it's about 30 or 40 namesthat are starting to do it. >> there is definitely a concern that they're going to lose jobs, because jobs are the main priority there for the leadership so they don't want to see the manufacturing sector or the supply chain start to leave in any meaningful way that said, in china, u.s. guys were pointing out, it's a one-party system and so the political factor is also really important. and if the government and president xi in particular decides it's just worth the financial and economic pain in order to make a larger point for a long term economic future,

then they're just going to go ahead and deal with the pain >> eunice, it's great to have you here in person >> i love it >> it's cool that there's no transmission delay >> i know! >> when i talk to you, you answer immediately >> and i know who's talking to me, i don't hear voices in my head and think, who's talking? >> come back and spend lots of time with us, great to see you >> thank you speaking of china, one big bet is that a chinese internet name could rally 20% mike khouw is in san francisco with the "options action." >> reporter: we did see above average action in baidu and baba jd saw four times the average daily call volume. the trade that struck out to me was a purchase of the june 42 calls, a single print of 800 of those trading at just under $1.60, obviously making the bet that jd will go above that

strike price by june expiration, an increase in the stock price of at least 18% over the next five months. if we look at the stock price, unlike u.s. shares, it's still well below the multiyear highs it takes a couple of years ago if we look at the options premiums, those are actually approaching multiyear lows the options are cheap. the stock is obviously making a run. this is an intelligent way to make a bullish bet if you think the rally in these shares could continue based on what we're hearing. >> thanks, mike. for more "options action," catch our live show tomorrow at 5:30 p.m. eastern, i'll be here for that so he should be too coming up, biotech stocks are coming off their best year ever and one chart says that could continue into 2020 first, dan nathan takes the mound to pitch his next big idea why he thinks this particular cloud company could be ready for a eautbrko we'll bring that you name when "fast money" returns turn on my tv and boom,

welcome back to "fast money. it is time for a fast pitch. tonight dan's got his head in the clouds

that's because he says this cloud stock could break out to new all time highs he's at the plasma with more >> hi, dan this is a fast trade, kind of a catch-up trade into the new year obviously tech has gotten off to a good start, doubling the performance of the market. let's look at salesforce, an interesting name to me obviously it's widely thought of as a high growth, high valuation name, doing a lot of innovative things in a business where they have some structural tail winds for probably decades to come this is one of the most-loved stocksin the mega cap. there are 39 buy ratings, three holds and no sells average 12-month price target is 190, that's pretty interesting this would almost be a catch-up trade. salesforce was up 19% last year, a year when the nasdaq was up almost double that

one of the reasons obviously investors are focused on valuation here, the company has made a lot of big acquisitions over the last few years to kind of get that growth some investors are kind of questioning that strategy. that being said, they got one of the best in the entire business, the ceo of this company, or the co-ceos, actually. the next few weeks to a couple of months, the technical setup is interesting this thing has obviously been consolidated, it spent the better part of last year between 145 and 165. it's back up at that level it started off the year pretty well, up 2%, mildly breaking out here but i want to go, let's look at the five-year chart. you see that this is almost a near two-year consolidation. there's been a nice up trend the up trend actually comes from the prior consolidation where the thing had been kind of moving along in a tight range. then you saw 100% appreciation

when i think about what's going on in the market here, if we're going to continue to see a meltup and people will reach for high valuation, high growth things for beta, salesforce will break out. obviously, to me, do you want to buy every chart that looks like a breakout, probably not this is implied volatility, the price of options in salesforce.com that's telling you at two-year lows that to define your risk, maybe use a call or a call spread to play for that breakout above 165, maybe targeting something 175, 180, makes a whole heck of a lot of sense or you buy it with a tight stop i'll make one last point, to the downside, that up trend that's been in place for the last year is down towards 145, that's probably your risk near term so to me, i like this play for a fast pitch breakout here for maybe a few weeks to a couple of months do you have a question >> yes last quarter, the stack ran up into earnings, they put out a pretty good quarter yet the stock traded down.

do you think we'll have to wait until march 2nd for them to report, that that will happen again? >> that could happen again karen, this is a breakout trade playing for 10% over the next few weeks before you get any real guidance. >> let's go to the vote. mr. grasso what do you think? >> i like the pitch. i like to say buy on this. i like when he was talking about the technicals on the trade. there's been long term resistance in the stock. if you're planning for a 10% move, why don't you just wait until it breaches the 170 mark >> karen >> yes, i like it, actually. there's a cloud here and a buy with a small calls, buy calls. >> little calls. >> savita is recused on this, she'll pass on that. thanks, dan. the desk has spoken. now it's your turn vote in our twitter po poll @cnbcfastmoney.

welcome back to "fast money. another check on incyte pharma, dropping in half hours after the company failed to meet its goal in a key drug trial. it has been a hot couple of months for the broader biotech area our next guest says there's still more room to run let's go off the charts with todd gordon of tradinganalysis.com. todd >> hi, tyler biotech, we're looking at two different etfs, the ibb and the xbi. one point i would make is the xbi is an equal weighted it consists of lots of different biotechs where the ibb is cap weighted the point there is if you take a look at the lower part of the chart, xbi relative to ibb what you see here is a little bit of underperformance, meaning what's happening is xbi right now is underperforming ibb

you are actually seeing a little bit of kind of large cap biotech outperforming much like we're seeing in the broader market keep that in mind. it is underperforming the broader s&p. we've not made a new high. we need to see the index move above there for biotech to truly be back. two names we're looking at, exactly sciences is number one there's some pretty exact technicals in here which i think are amazing here so if you look at three main pullbacks here over the last two years, watch this. 42%, 41%, 39%. and they say the markets are just driven by fundamentals. there's a lot of technical rhythms and patterns in here we dip below the 200, if you zoom in here, there's a little bit of an inverse head and shoulders. if we can launch up through there, history would show this is a viable pullback this was a high flying stock last year. i like it, i'm going to look to add exact sciences through 100

the other one is a little bit less of an urgent play which is regeneron. there's one consolidation, big breakout we've seen a lot of consolidation in re-generon. this is the weekly, if you get down to the daily chart, you have to wait for this one to break. if you just draw your trend line here, you're certainly going to find buy stops above the $400 region if you're been looking for biotech and regeneron through 400, that would be the time to add regeneron. >> thank you very much savita, what is your overall thinking about biotech or health care in particular health care is big and broad, biotech just one part of it. >> look, if you're going to buy and hold for the next decade, there is nothing wrong with health care and nothing wrong with biotech we're moving into this brave new

welcome back to "fast money. check out united airlines, gaining some altitude today after an upgrade at evercore analysts cite an evaluation relative to its clears is united all clear for takeoff, karen? that's a nice way of saying

you've underperformed and been crappy for a while >> but they've actually outperformed as a stock. the valuation makes it attractive because not only have they operationally outperformed, now you can buy it cheaper relative to -- maybe american might be cheaper at this point but one of the things they also cite is a potential credit card deal when delta announced their american express deal, that was very good for the stock. that would be a bump that we're not really expecting i like the space it is cheap, obviously it's a hugely cyclical space but the valuations are attractive. >> airlines, transports? >> they look good. i would say airlines is a consumer ploy, it's attractive the use consumer has never looked better. oil prices seem fairly contained. this is a great way to look for value. i think that 2020 is going to be a year where value outperforms growth and airlines fit in that pocket >> 20 seconds.

final thoughts >> investment-grade airlines, delta basically stands alone i'm long spirit, up 10 or 15% there. that was a laggard, and underperformer i think that moves higher. >> we'll leave it there. r nal ade me back, we'll hav oufitre. market, find the best instructors in the world, and tie it all together with a world-class software experience. we ended up creating, as you all know, so much more. peloton is truly a category of one and we're just getting started. now, let's do this. together, we are going further than we ever thought possible.
