5:02 am

5:03 am
meanwhile, here in the usa, a fifth case of the virus has been confirmed in arizona eunice joins us from beijing what is the latest to contain the virus? >> reporter: i'm currently in one of the most popular entertainment districts in beijing, if you can believe it it's normally shoulder-to-shoulder busy on a normal day it would have been quiet because of the lunar new year holiday. it's extremely, unusually quiet tonight and for the past several days the reason is because people nationwide are scared to go out of their homes the chinese government has been moving very aggressively to try to contain what they described as a strengthening virus over the weekend, chinese premier li keqiang is in charge
5:04 am
and currently in the hot zone, wuhan. after xi jinping convened an emergency meeting on saturday in order to try to get a handle on the situation, which he described as grave now, there has been quite a bit of criticism public for the authorities and the management of this situation. especially in wuhan, courtney, because the wuhan mayor said 5 million people have left the city because of the lunar new year and the outbreak. there's been a lot of concern about that number of people leaving the city despite the lockdown >> eunice, i understand officials in shanghai have announce the new steps to try to contain the outbreak beyond having folks stay at home, what else are they doing >> reporter: the city of shanghai moments ago announced -- has ordered companies to not come back to work they say, do not resume work
5:05 am
until february 9th this comes after the city of suxhuo also told its companies not to come back to work until february 8th what you're seeing is a lot of cities across china now starting to consider and be more concerned about the spread of this disease and one of the big issues is that this could have a major economic impact as the concerns continue. >> absolutely. eunice, thank you for bringing us the latest. make sure you keep yourself safe as you report on this for us. as we mentioned before, the mounting concerns about the coronavirus are hitting u.s. futures this morning investors will have plenty more to chew on in the days ahead because it's the busiest week of earning season about 130 companies in the s&p 500 and 14 dow components are among those reporting. the list includes 3m, starbucks, apple, mcdonald's, microsoft and amazon for more i'm joined by craig
5:06 am
johnson, chief market tech anything nigs at piper sandler what a monday morning we have. what's top of mind because there's a lot to pick from >> as you look at this market, the coronavirus is certainly a serious situation, also in terms of the market itself, courtney, conditions were kind of right for some kind of selloff to occur. if you looked at how overextended the market was, how far above the 200-day moving average we were from a technical perspective, all the conditions were right to have some sort of reason to take some profits in this market. that's what i think the coronavirus is at this point in time just an excuse to take some profits. longer term trend, it's intact the economy is file. our year-end objective is 3600 we can get there but in the meantime we need consolidation and filling. >> excuse was almost the word i was going to use when i was going to ask you if that's what it feels like it is because of the stretch valuation for some big names.
5:07 am
if we look at past outbreaks, sars is one that comes to mind for most people, that was in 2003 in those moments we were coming out of a bear market, perhaps a bit more fragile than we are here this may be an opportunity not to make light of the seriousness of this disease. >> absolutely. i 100% agree with that when we wrote up our monthly piece, we titled it "i'll met with you," a bla on the english song because the market was melting up as we look at this period of time and what we were seeing in january of 2018, we were seeing a lot of stocks that were going pa parabolic on the charts. caterpillar, 3m, boeing, they were going parabolic we know how those charts end badly. fast forward to today. apple, great company, nothing wrong with the company but the chart has gone basically straight up. we do need to see some profit-taking and resetting of expectations as it's starting to get ahead of itself.
5:08 am
>> profit-taking, do you think that will happen in light of many of those companies reporting earnings apple is reporting as the others you mentioned with the parabolic stock charts. >> there's a lot of expectations built spew these companies, 150-plus companies reporting this week. there need to be pretty good results and we need to see sop upside surprise to those in bz to keep this moving. earnings haven't been growing quite as quickly as what i think a lot of investors have been looking for. the expectations are in federal government -- negative, and negative q3 earnings, too. two quarters of negative earnings will not set up well for the tape and supports the rationale for a setback and correction in the tape because it's too far ahead of itself again, an excuse at this point in time to take some money off the table. >> i was going to say, i mean, it sounds like if you're looking at 3,600, this is perhaps temporary. >> correct >> where would you be looking for pockets of opportunity here, then, if it seems that prices
5:09 am
fall a little bit and there might be a moment to get in? >> sure. what i'll be looking for, again, if you take a company like apple, if you see a simple correction that takes the stock back 5%, 10%, that's a buying opportunity. other stocks i like, i like stocks like ge they've been down, washed out, starting to show an improving chart. i'm a buyerer of that. stocks like microsoft, uptrend, but it could correct back to the 50 or 200-day moving average better entry point even stocks like philip morris have reversed down trend i like stocks like that. we upgraded the energy sector from underweight back to neutral this last month. we think expectations are extremely low. valuations have been set to levels we have not seen since '99-2000 while some tech names are extended and energy names look fairly well priced -- well, discounting a lot of bad news at this point in time, it has a feeling to me like '99 where you
5:10 am
see profit-taking intact, money came into energy and you see this mini rotation i don't think it will be to that extreme but i think there's better value in the energy space than people are giving it credit for right now. >> energy has definitely been one of those sectors that has been further behind than any others thank you for being with us on this busy monday morning. when we come back, google set to face new pressure from a coalition of state attorneys general. details on their plans to target the tech giant. plus, with less than a week until the super bowl, diana olick is looking at the risks that pro sports teams are facing with their stadiums. a big night for 18-year-old pop sen tags billie eilish as she cleans up at the grammys a busy hour still ahead when "worldwide exchange" returns man: can i find an investment firm that has a truly long-term view? it begins by being privately owned. with more than 85 years of experience over multiple market cycles. with portfolio managers who are encouraged to do what's right

breaking news. a market selloff futures pointing to a more than 400-point drop at the open for the dow. the big driver, rising fears of the coronavirus and the impact on the global economy. we'll have complete coverage as the second half of "worldwide exchange" starts now ♪ welcome back i am courtney reagan in this morning for bryant sullivan.
5:27 am
here's how stock futures are look halfway through the 5:00 a.m. hour. losses have been accelerating since the beginning of the show when we were down 365. for the dow jones now we're down 410 points the s&p 500 is selling off to the tune of 48 points. the nasdaq also seeing losses accelerating, lower by 179 points at this point we are obviously a number of hours until the market actually opens here for trading in the united states. we're going to take a quick look at the bond market where yields under pressure the ten-year yield under 1.7% sitting at 1.62% we know the federal reserve will be meeting this week that is a very reactive area of the market we'll take a look at energy prices, too, which also are continuing to sell off some worries about the economic pressure that may ensue from the coronavirus. you see the wti is down by more than 3.5%. and brent is also accelerating those losses down almost 3.5%
5:28 am
we're going worldwide but we should remind you most of asia is closed for the lunar new year although japan's nikkei dropped 2% that market is open. europe is also open for business broader averages down by more than 2% for france, the ftse 100 and in germany as well let's get a look at top stories with rahel solomon busy morning. >> busy morning. coronavirus still top of mind. the number of people infected by the coronavirus continues to climb. chi nieces officials say 2,800 cases worldwide and death toll at 81. they have expanded efforts to contain the outbreak as we heard from eunice, including extending the lunar new year holiday to keep people at home. in the u.s., a fifth case has been confirmed that happened in arizona. deutsche bank is being probed over its payments to a saudi adviser. german prosecutors are investigating two former
5:29 am
employees of the bank for suspected bribery. the ft says deutsche bank paid more than $1 million in 2011 and 2012 to secure the wealth management business of the senior royal it also adds that some of the pay and additional perks violated deutsche's anti-corruption policies. the financial times saying hedge funds reported $43 million in investor withdrawals. the ft says years of underperformers by hedge funds by the financial crisis have prompted institutional investors to reduce their exposure courtney >> thank you very much, rahel. back to the markets. stock futures facing steep losses this morning. we told you earlier we seem to be accelerating there. the dow jones industrials point lower by more than four points the first fed policy decision of the year due out wednesday we have the busiest week of the
5:30 am
earning season, including names like apple, mcdonald's, tesla and caterpillar. as rahel just mentioned, the coronavirus spreading around the world which remains a major overhang for wall street joining me, kenny from slate stone wealth and a cnbc contributor. kenny, it's a good -- it's good to see you this morning. help us put all of this in perspective, these futures are accelerating the losses at this point. it seems to be on fears of this coronavirus. what do you make of that >> i think the selloff -- i think the virus is the excuse the market needed. i think one of your other guests this morning also made that point. look, we've all been talking about it the market has done nothing but march straight up in a line, no pullback, no consolidation, anything for at least the last quarter. to the point is scratching their head, it's starting not to make sense. something like this virus, while
5:31 am
it certainly is concerning, is the excuse the market really needed to take some money off the table. kind of that's what you're seeing all around the world. asian markets are closed that's part of the reason why -- other than japan that's part of the reason why there's a little more angst because there's no real direction coming out of asia european markets, as you can see, opened lower, trending lower and futures have fallen off the edge in the last 20 minutes with the dow down over 400 points and the s&p over 30 or 32 points, as you and i are talking. i wouldn't make too much of this the pendulum always swings too far to the right and then swings too far to the left on the way back you can say we swung way up on the right and markets did nothing but go straight up and now it's going to correct a little bit so, expect that the market will have an overreaction to the downside and it will stabilize >> so, i hear you on the overreaction and that does make sense i know that this happens however, you also have chinese government telling people not to go to work stay at home for longer than we
5:32 am
had been told previously disney's closing shanghai. mcdonald's closing down locations. there has to be some real loss of business here that is being captured in these stocks no >> i imagine there is going to be loss of business, for sure. and i think a lot of those policies that they're instituting are certainly appropriate considering, you know, what this virus is we haven't even really put our fingers on it yet. considering what's happening over in china, the policies are appropriate. yes, will there be a hit to some bottom lines yes. but i suspect it will be shorter term think about what sars did in february of 2003 12% came out of the market during that time period we were graping with sars and what is it and how bad is it going to be? certainly there were other economic issues around it basse baited those moves my sense is if we keep negative
5:33 am
headlines and talking about how it's going to affect global economy and individual companies, we'll see that same type of selloff. partly also because i think the market was a little bit fluffy it was too -- it had gone too far too fast i expect with the negative headlines this will happen yes, some loss of business, for sure will it destroy company earnings it's hard for me to believe that. >> we have breaking news crossing that we are getting word aboeing plane operated by afghanistan's state-owned airline crashed in the country's central ghanzi province. shares of boeing are under pressure, just under 2%. boeing, of course, putting pressure on futures. we know it is a key component to the dow and it has been a big talker for the markets of course, as we've been moving forward with the 737 max plane developments, will it be recertified mid-year, will it not?
5:34 am
if i can use this moment, kenny, to talk about boeing and not at all to lessen the severity of the idea of another plane crash here, but if you're sitting and watching shares of boeing, how in the world are you making sense of all of these headlines that are coming at this very important company? >> i think it's confusing, at best, to make sense of any of the headlines. with earnings coming out this week, the speculation is what we're going to hear from them in this earnings call will we learn something new? will they divert the conversation away from the max to the 777 they demoed on friday are they going to create a more positive story everything that's appropriate. today's headline, i just heard it when you said it to me, is not going to help that conversation for boeing. on top of a day that's already down, on top of a day seeing global markets under pressure, that headline is certainly not going to help boeing therefore, boeing being such a large part of the dow is going to put more pressure on the dow
5:35 am
and the s&p. but it's going to be difficult until you see what the -- what the cause of that crash was. was it, in fact, just pilot error or is it, in fact, another problem that's going to be very specific to boeing as the news comes out, you and i would be able to have a better conversation that >> absolutely. let's take a look at some of these other earnings names reporting before we move on. really, really big week. we'll hear from apple, we'll hear from facebook, caterpillar, mcdonald's, starbucks, so many others any opportunities you see here, which ones would you be watching most specifically for investors to make a little money here, especially as some of these names have run really far relatively quickly >> i actually wouldn't be surprised. any earnings coming out tonight, whether or not they beat or not might see pressure because of the overall tone one that will be curious to me -- certainly caterpillar will be curious because it speaks
5:36 am
right to the industrial global economy. that will be one to watch. but apple, apple has gone straight up. it was up 130% on the year from january 19th to today. it's up 47% in the last quarter alone. the pressure is going to be on they're a $4.1 trillion company. the pressure will be on to hit every metric as the market investors expect if they miss anywhere, you could expect to see a reason for people once again to start to take money out that being the case, i think that then presents its opportunity because apple is one of those names that should be a core holding in your portfolio i don't think people should panic about it you'll get the trading types trading in and out the long-term investor, buy the news, sell the rumor type of event. it will be those opportunities, whether it's ge, because i like ge as well and caterpillar tractor and apple, i think you have to watch those names because i think
5:37 am
those are all core names and siee how they react to the earnings announcements putting in perspective where the market is, the tone of the market today, might actually provide even more opportunity. >> that's right, kenny as you're speaking, we are seeing both of those names under pressure apple down by more than 2% and ge down by almost 2% kenny, thank you for being up early and being with us here this morning >> thanks. coming up, housing set to be in focus this week as we await a number of key reports on the sector the ceo of one of the country's top mortgage companies explains the trends he's seeing when "worldwide exchange" returns how's the it department liking the now platform? every time it takes care of something for us, we celebrate. how often does that...

5:43 am
plastics cups will be aluminum. >> when sports can pick something up, you're really hitting an audience that's very broad. if it impacts sports, it really just makes it that much more important. >> reporter: stephen ross is owner of the miami dolphins and chairman of the related companies, one of the nation largest real estate developers as owner to a team, do you see any risk to your investment with climate change >> oh, yeah. if we don't do something now, we're looking into extinction. these are our issues that have to be dealt with today. >> when the sports industry first started its greening programs it was to reduce the cost of energy, which also resulted in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. as to why they keep building stadiums and arenas on the water, professional sports needs to be where the people are even with all of this risk, the fastest areas of the country in terms of real estate development, are, of course, on the coast. >> if they continue to build on the coast, what can they do to
5:44 am
mitigate these problems? >> the oakland a's proposed a stadium on san francisco bay they'll raise land levels, plant green areas and then you built this a island of resilience. if you have a stadium that's there and working, but how do you get to it if there are floodwaters? >> fascinating stuff this week is a big one for the housing sector, a busy one for you. we'll get new home sales figures for december as well as figures from d.r. horton wednesday we'll get pending home sales. on thursday it's housing vacancies. i'm join the by ceo and president of united wholesale mortgages. matt, thank you for being with us first of all, i know this may not be your exact area but i'd love to get your take on diana's story about the rising risk and issues about -- let's say just
5:45 am
say building on the coast, if it's not sports stadiums in particular. >> obviously, climate makes a difference it's interesting to see -- i didn't know that as much before watching or hearing that story, but definitely impactful as people are building on the coast, whether it's housing on are stadiums, all those things could have an impact definitely something people are watching we'll all watch in the housing and real estate industry across the industry. >> diana brought to us earlier in this year all of these strong numbers for the winter housing market and i know that's still going on she's talked about how it's it's shifted the buying season's peak season potentially from the spring into now because of this tight housing supply what are you seeing right now in the housing markets in the united states >> we see a strong housing market afford act is the key. low interest rates and housing appreciation has gone up but not at the same pace as interest rates have gone down
5:46 am
we're seeing strong market not only in refinances but purchases. i know inventory is tight, millenials are buying. it's been a strong start to the year stronger than most januarys we've seen in yaoers. >> matt, i'm interested in what you think about mortgage availability in this year. we did see a change to fico scores last week where there's plenty of demand out there from millenials a lot say, look, it's too hard to get a mortgage. they have credit problems. where do you see that going? >> actually, i think that's changing the change to fico are positive. if you have a 690 credit score and you should have a 710 or 720, you'll get lower rates and lower fees i think mortgages are getting easier and faster, especially working with ab independent mortgage broker you can shop on yourself people try to do it themselves that's not how mortgage works. the fico change will help more consumers than hurt. and i think finding a mortgage broker that can shop on your behalf will be a real win and i think it's going to be a strok year for housing. >> you mentioned earlier the
5:47 am
millenials what is going on with the millenials and home-buying trends as we get older and we have more children and we're moving into sort of this next phase of our life. >> everyone's been saying, where are millenials going to buy? we're seeing that happen as the millennial age gets older and people are buying houses, starting families. because of some changes to the mortgage rate -- you said it's harder to get a mortgage it's easier now. well qualified buyers can get in and lower down payments. people think i have to say 20% and go through this tedious process. that's not how they work you can close loans in 10, 15 days, 10%, 15% - >> we're not going back to the future, we don't want to see the no down payment, the no doc loans, right >> no, these are fannie mae, freddie mac. strong borrower, well qualified

u.s. futures facing steep losses as concerns continue to mount over china's coronavirus outbreak the dow jones industrial average pointing lower by 450 points at this moment. the nasdaq is down by 181 points i am joined by chad morganlander, portfolio manager at washington crossing advisers and chris campbell from dunst and phelps institute it's a very busy morning thank you for joining us chad, i will start with you. what do you make of the pressure here today it seems like a lot of others are saying, look, this is the coronavirus, but it's also temporary. what's your read >> that's the hope, that it is temporary and history has shown it is temporary. with that said going into this,
5:53 am
there were large expectations for an increased acceleration of global growth. that is going to actually be tempered down quite a bit. also keep in mind that market multiples, valuations, have been exceedingly high at roughly about 18 times pe multiple we believe going into this year, investors should be a little more balanced in their portfolio. they should be a little more circumspect about global growth expectations. >> this comes at a time when chinese markets are closed because of the new year and now they are closed with the virus, shanghai disney, restaurants, movie theaters are there any indications we should be watching for the market and just as concerned individuals, this may not be so temporary. >> i think we're looking at any travel and tourism stock
5:54 am
again, i think as the movement of people happens, chinese new year when they typically travel the most, this is a bad time for an outbreak to happen. as we see the virus continue to mutate and multiply, it will have an impact on the economy. however, we think the fundamentals of the u.s., especially the u.s. economy, are strong going into the fed, the fmoc and other things, we still see a pretty strong economy going forward. >> does this present at all an opportunity, without sort of dampening the seriousness of the virus? >> i think some people are taking some profit share right now, using this as an opportunity to do so this is no way diminishing the real economic and health impact the virus is going to have equities have been overpriced. there may be profit taking going on and resetting of the markets. i think going into the fmoc, we
5:55 am
see china phase one trade deal, the brexit happening and parenthetically our firm did a study and suggests that new york has overtaken london as the financial center overall the fundamentals of the u.s. economy and u.s. consumer are going to continue to be the economic engine for the world in the short and near term. >> if i can get your take on other news of the morning. moments ago we heard reports of a boeing airport that has been downed in afghanistan. just another potential issue for this company to overcome we know they did get the 777 max off the ground in that test flight that's potentially good news an awful lot of cross-currents and it's important as a dow component. how should we evaluate the move in boeing, down 2% this year. >> awful story human tragedy. it looks like it's going to be
5:56 am
in the penalty box for several more months overall. when it comes to industrials, they'll be tied to global growth we are overweight industrials at this point in time with that said we don't have such an economic forecast at 3% where the im if. is at 3.3% overall we're recommending to investors today is that you overweight health care, overweight consumer staples, you have good quality companies in your portfolio, well capitalized with not a lot of debt on your balance sheet. we would underweight or limit exposure to the emerging market side and have some development overall. the overall asset allocation would be long the dollar at this inflection point at this cycle. >> before i move on to you, i want to note that the ceo of afghan airlines is denying it's one of his planes that has gone down in this reported accident
5:57 am
boeing shares are down by 2% chad brings up emerging markets. it's went an interesting point for many guests and strategists on cnbc. they say, look, it needs to catch up there's opportunity there. you're saying not so much. what do you make of that >> actually, i agree i think i would go long on the u.s. looking internationally, it's hard to see where the growth is going to occur there's still negative interest race almost everywhere and not a lot of innovation. and then the compounding challenge of the virus and other issues, brexit has to work itself out i'm very, very strong on the u.s. market and u.s. economy and u.s. consumer. less so internationally. >> so, the thing about the emerging markets is that china has been the global engine of growth overall for the last five years. and that's been based off a massive amount of credit growth.
5:58 am
with any deceleration of credit growth there, that has a meaningful impact on the demand curve, not only for commodities but overall for global trade we believe they will continue to decelerate we're not anticipating a hard landing. overall we think it will have a meaningful impact on global impacts not just this year but the next three, five years >> there's a lot to go over, but if you were to pick out a couple highlights for investors, what should we be watching? >> look at the tech sector i think it will be the one most people watch because i think it's the one that could perhaps be the most volatile i would look at the tech stocks. >> absolutely. and i think apple is going to continue to be one we watch because of the size of that market cap, the weighting. gentlemen, thank you for being with us today. chad and chris that's it for "worldwide exchange." futures still under pressure "squawk box" is going to pick it up "squawk box" begins right now.
