5:03 am
and corporate earnings have been booming. earns growth at 43%. sales growth under 11% go google, facebook, apple and others are bringing in the growth average higher for everyone companies are beating earnings by a whopping 23% over expectations versus the average 14% this earnings beat so far is the highest on record since facts began tracking the data in 2008. we go back 13 years. this is overall arguably the best earnings season we have ever seen particularly against expectations one reason perhaps the market rose so much the last six six-to-nine must w months. wall street saw it coming and bought stocks.
5:04 am
first up apple. first quarter sales and revenue above estimate apple hiked dividend and authorizing a, get this, $90 billion share buyback. 90 that stock is up 3% in the pre-market facebook results coming in better than expected sales of facebook despite people criticizing the company, sales rose 48% driven by ads stock soaring 76%. we talked about apple. apple buyback and google buyback, $140 billion in stock buybacks were announced by apple and google two companies, $140 billion. more companies likely to do the same as the supply of stock shrinks
5:05 am
and the case for bull stocks well have more on the markets coming up. now to the morning top story. president biden addressing congress and the american people last night laying out his sweeping vision to overhaul the united states. the korcornerstone? the $2 trillion family plan. spending on child care and community college and paid leave. the president calling it a once in a generation investment in families and children. the president is looking to raise taxes on top earnings individuals and boosting taxes on companies and expanding irs audits to catch tax cheats which aims at lost revenue of $300 billion or more. the president laying out that
5:06 am
issue in his speech. >> $1 trillion during the pandemic they are now worth more than $4 trillion my fellow americans, trickle down trickle down economics has never worked it is time to grow the economy from the bottom and the middle out. i'm not looking to punish anybody. i will not add a tax burden, additional tax burden to the middle class in the country. they are already paying enough i believe what i propose is fair fiscally responsible it raises revenue to pay for the plans i propose and create millions of jobs that will grow the economy and enhance our financial standing in the country. >> now the american families
5:07 am
plan passes, the president will move to sell the american people on his new more than $2 trillion spending bill that is focused on infrastructure and other programs remember, that is a separate program. $2.3 trillion. this is $1.8 trillion in addition to the covid relief bill total of $6 trillion we are joined by stephanie k kelly. thank you for joining us, stephanie. your take on the president's speech last night vis-a-vis the markets and what he said about the taxes and corporate investment >> whethat we he saw last nighta expected with the family plan with the overall fiscal and infrastructure approach. that was par for the course. i think he did make the point. the trickle down economics hasn't worked is his argument. that points to the redistribution that so far c
5:08 am
characterized his presidency what it means for the investor debate, what does it mean for capital gains or high income tax and corporate tax? is it bipartisan or single-party led? >> in the president's words, the taxes have to go up. the president said middle class taxes, ironically, middle class income taxes are near the lowest they have ever been on a post-deduction basis we have a lot of big numbers, but you have to pay for it somehow. middle class taxes coming down and i have jokingly tweeted last night that democrats are now the party of tax cuts. middle class taxes keep coming down they will go down further on a federal level. you have to pay for it somehow will we get higher corporate taxes and higher taxes on higher income families? >> i think that is what will happen the question is not do they go
5:09 am
up, but how far do they go we take corporate taxes first. joe manchin has come out strongly this is all within the democratic party it doesn't seem republicans will be on board with anything in any of the infrastructure packages really we can put that to the side. joe manchin said he is not key on the corporate rate. that is higher than 25%. we have something between 25% and 28% corporate tax depending on how it plays out. capital gains is very high right now. i think we will get a raise, but not as high as what biden is proposing. you will see the pressure in terms of the stepped up basis. that is all coming through the question is how far can they push it to fund what they are trying to do as opposed to doing it all i think the taxes are coming, the question is how high that will depend on the debate
5:10 am
and negotiations that go on in washington the next few months >> and if we get some form of higher taxes, which seems likely, stephanie, will it hurt stocks we have shown all kinds of data that our viewers may not like it not a lot of correlation between higher capital gains taxes and how the market does unless the numbers are so big like they were in the 1970s. >> exactly this is where i think thresholds matter also, you said at the beginning how much spending is passed through to the economy on the biden administration it is not necessarily about headline level or good or bad for stocks it is who are the winners and who are the losers for the companies that are exposed and able to take advantage of the renewable tax credits and engage with the building and construction and
5:11 am
refurbishment involved, those are the companies that can win if you are a company exposed to narrow margins and you can't absorb or figure out a way corporate tax raises, that is more challenging that is how we need to think about it winners or losers. >> does aberdeen standard change recommendations to clients based on anything you heard last night? >> no. the way we tend to do it is every quarter review this will be a bigger conversation to take on the environment. this is one part of the bigger biden administration policy plan the big question mark for me in particular is do they try to do this as two separate bills it is presented as a family plan and infrastructure plan. it looks like democrats will have to put it in one big bill the bigger the bill gets, the harder it is to pass
5:12 am
that affects the timing and size and composition. >> stephanie kelly of aberdeen standard thank you for coming on. have a great day >> thank you all right. more on the president's speech throughout the day here on cnbc. right now, here is what else is making headlines at this hour. moderna says new data shows the covid vaccine can remain stable at standard refrigerator temperatures for up to three months if this is authorized by the fda, storage guidelines could make it easier to get medicine to smaller offices without ultra cold freezers. moderna plans to increase the global supply on the vaccine for up to 3 billion next year. by the way, the ceo on cnbc in two hours. also, endeavor group is

5:52 am
important. in fact, i think the eventuality of higher labor costs will deal with that. that is what we are focusing on. >> alicia, futures on soaring. dow futures up 148 that is the battle of two headlines. one headline you have the bigger earnings numbers 43%. that is insane i don't think i have ever seen a number that big. last night, the president saying the companies need to do their fair share he wants to raise corporate taxes. it appears that optimism over earnings is out stripping or trumping concern over higher taxes. why is that? >> so because we're getting all the good news first and we're getting all of the spending first and markets are anticipating the rebound we are seeing in the real economy and we hear from gdp at 8:30 today.
5:53 am
earnings has been anticipated by markets months ago we are spending $1.2 trillion in 2021 through september alone that is an enormous amount of money with the extra trillions in savings in u.s. households personal accounts. we have all engines go for the consumer and reopening what comes next and what comes next is going to be a little bit of indigestion for the markets we know that 40% of s&p earnings come from overseas and the intricacy of the corporate tax plan is not the headline number of 21% to 28%. even if it falls at 25%. it is what is happening with the overseas revenue and the taxes that is punitive to the multinational companies. that is supposed to clip earnings there's not been an a lot of fo
5:54 am
on what that tax would do. there is more than 25% to 28%. i am not so sure the market will take it so easily. >> i'll stay with you, alicia. you are making a very important point. a lot of the tax proposal, as we know it, by the way, and still things they have to work out it is aimed at profits overseas. multinational corporations also foreign ownership of u.s. stocks have never been higher. does that push you to recommend small caps or big investment companies or can the multinationals take the hits doing businesses around the world? that is where the tax hit is targeted >> it is the sectors that are most hit are tech and health care precisely the two sectors that got us out the pandemic. you know, go figure. the truth of the matter is that
5:55 am
i don't believe the market believes the full tax will go through. it is going to be difficult with the $4 trillion of earnings which they are trying to get through congress there is some probability overth if this goes through you if this goes through, you have to focus on the small caps in the u.s. because the overseas tax is punitive. it is so punitive, we have to have other countries bind with us in some minimum tax plan to get it through otherwise, companies will revert to finding operations overseas >> yeah. it is interesting. patrick, we forget and it has been easy to forget due to covid. we have a lot of health issues cancer is still around obesity. multitrillion dollars around the
5:56 am
world. the point is we have all been focused on covid health care not going anywhere highlighted some other problems that we need to fix as well. is that one of the reasons you are bullish on health care >> yeah, that's right. there may be some indigestion as it comes in front of the potential multinational tax they may need to absorb health care is not going away, brian. diagnostic testing will not go away you can see things like elective surgeries open up and provide tailwinds to the sector. the sector is full of them and companies generate cash flow and good balance sheets. there are plenty of things in the sector to look at and be excited about for the future >> yeah.
