5:22 am
joseph, you have a big smile well deserved after more than a year people are flooding pack into theaters what kind of summer can we expect at the movies i have to imagine there are a ton of awe some movies waiting o be rolled out because they were not rolled out in the last year. >> you are right any studio executive's belief that a movie belongs on streaming, that model is shattered with the numbers amazing weekend coming pack into the theater. during the shutdown, people locked in the homes and really have missed that communal experience we are looking forward to big movies coming out. yes, some will be the pandemic model release on streaming services there are so many movies, including fast nine coming up at the end of the month in theaters as i said, the profitability of
5:23 am
the movie is exclusive to the theater. we proved it this weekend. it was fantastic >> isn't that part of the thing? that's like retail we talk about brick and mortar everyone is talking about that is dead and going online we want to get out isn't that the point of going to the movies it is a giant screen and better sound and comfortable chairs idea is to get out of the house, jo joseph >> exactly you can't get that experience from home. sitting in the room with strangers even post-pandemic is something you can't get some place else you are squarcared. "the conjuriconjuring" is comint this week. it will do well this week. "the heights" in two weeks it will be available on streaming services as well
5:24 am
the studios are realizing that theater exclusive is the way to go we are back and not going anywhere >> how many movies have been done for a long time, joseph, but not rolled out streaming just waiting to be rolled out? i can't remember some of the titles is there a giant backlog >> there is. as i understand it, between 70 and 80 movies that were not released during the shutdown that did not hit streaming services waiting for theater release. a lot are small titles very good movies i saw one "dream course" which is playing in theaters it was a great movie and it was a great night going out. >> i think "top gun 2. are you ready for maverick a 62-year-old fighter pilot,
5:25 am
joseph >> everybody is ready for that that is the one people are waiting for, but our difficult is getting staff to come back. during the shutdown, people found other jobs or with unemployment, they can make more money on unemployment than coming back to work. it has been difficult for us getting people back. with about 70% of the nation's theaters open right now, i think unemployment will start waning off and people want to come back to work. >> there's going to be a lot of people working double and triple shifts i see that at restaurants and retail and so many businesses across the country joseph, good news. the movies are back in the movies joseph masher, have a great day. >> thank you that labor shortage story is the news that keeps on giving. let's get a check of the other
5:26 am
headlines. including more on the mass shooting in miami over the weekend. frances rivera is in new york with the latest. >> brian, good morning an urgent manhunt is under way for three dangerous gunmen we have images of the suspects police sharing this video of the three leaving the suv with assault weapons. these men are accused of shooting 23 people outside the concert hall and killing two of them the nissan pathfinder pulled from the canal is the same one driven by the suspects. naomi osaka stunned the tennis world withdrawing from the french open citing her mental health and a deeply personal messages. this move comes after her being fined $15,000 and suspension. and the asteroid the size of the space needle is expected to

drive by earth the space rock known as 2021-kt-1 is about 600 feet. it will whiz by earth at 4.5 million meiles away. brian, i hope this is the only headline about the asteroid. it will be bad news if we do other stories on it, obviously >> yeah. no more giant asteroid whizzes by the planet. frances rivera, thank you. have a great day >> you, too. thank you. right ahead, tackling iran tensions and the latest on the so-called fragile five helima croft's key things to watch ahead of the opec meeting. dow futures are up stick around

5:31 am
forced to shutdown it is tuesday, june 1st. this is "worldwide exchange. here on cnbc welcome or welcome back. i'm brian sullivan it is 5:30 on the east coast thanks for joining us on this tuesday. here is how things are setting up their day they are setting up nicely futures are higher across the board. dow futures are up nearly 200. nasdaq futures are up 60 points right now. the momentum rolls on. the dow is now up for four months in a row and higher six of the past seven months s&p 500 is up four months in a row. small caps are saying, you know what get out of the way, stats. we will one-up you
5:32 am
russell 2000 up for eight months in a row since the streak ended in september of 1995 if the russell 2000 ends the month of june higher, that is nine in a row and would break a 30-year record wow. watch the small caps. outside of equity? crypto, not so much. another rough weekend. bitcoin back below 36,000 ethereum down as well. crypto everybody is waiting for the bounce which simply has not come the question he iis are they fon a triple bottom? can we hold at these levels? we have to see crypto again. on the other side is oil one of the surprise winners of the year surprise to many oil is higher once again 68 and change. for wti crude, 70.
5:33 am
and the elx energy etf. that is the longest winning streak in 11 years wow. talk about win streaks gold coming off its best month since july of 20 silver since december of last year both soaring in may 8% big moves for the metals and oil. speaking of oil, we have a very important opec meeting happening in a few hours overall, the belief is the group is likely to stick to the current pace of gradually easing supply curbs throwing 350,000 barrels a day back on the market as they try to balance out the recovery and demand and against a possible push of increase in output primarily from iran. let's talk more about this may shakeout with our friend helima cr
5:34 am
croft, head of rbc helima, how do you see it shaking out for opec today >> the expectation is going into the meeting that you likely will have incremental addition. opec putting on 350,000 more barrels of production. saudi arabia adding back 350,000. the total addition from the group to 700,000 the question mark is do they do more because the iran talks did not produce the breakthrough that some expected the question is are we looking at a bigger add from opec plus does saudi add more barrels or stick to doing 700,000 collectively that is decided today. the russians are once again pushing for more barrels on the market all eyes are going to be on what
5:35 am
the prince will do >> he was on the take jumping the gun. saying the global oil markets can sustain a gradual output the ministers don't say these kinds of things unless they want the message out there. is the message from iran, kuwait and others, they want to be able to sell more oil >> i think the big debate is i think we will obviously get more oil the question is what is the volume what is interesting now with the opec meetings is we get two announcements. we get the opec number and the saudi number that is interesting. do we get an incrementally higher number from opec of 350,000? do the saudis stick to 350,000 do they add more it is not just one decision. it is the combination of the decision you have some producers wanting to be a little more cautious they say, yes, the u.s. looks
5:36 am
great with gasoline demand europe is reopening. we have the problems in india and covid. the third largest oil market for demand japan is looking shaky now with covid as well. the question is what is the incremental add that we will see? if we have the steady as we go, that price will likely move higher because it doesn't look like we are getting the immediate return of 1 million plus iranian barrels we think the barrels will come in during the back half of the year they did not get the progress meaning it is an imminent issue for the market >> the iranian barrel, helima, is on the market to much extextt secret sales or turning off the gps. it is not like iran is not selling oil around the world we know they are the question is how much
5:37 am
they want to return to, let's call it, the visible or semi-legal oil market under the u.s. oil sanctions how much more additional barrels do you think iran would or could put on the market and assuming there is additional barrels, helima, can increased demand -- former manhattan residents like you are now driving around, can it withstand that supply increase >> you are right the iranians are shipping barrels off to china which is more disconnected from the international financial system some would say look at the floating storage built up? iran is looking to place barrels into other key markets like europe and japan and get better economics for the barrels. i do think when sanctions are lifted, we are likely to get the initial big show of force from
5:38 am
i iranians that they are back. you say is there is million extra barrels ths that they can bring on i say you are right. the question for opec is if you are not getting additional iranian barrels right now, but some time later in the year, do you need to add more yourself in the market the dynamics in washington are key as well. are you getting information from the administration that they want more barrels on the market to cool off prices >> helima croft, seal ye you one virtual call later today thank you. now to that developing story involving criminals targeting the world's biggest meat processor. another major hack attack. br contessa brewer is back with that contessa >> brian, brazil's jvs say units
5:39 am

5:40 am
the price of beef and veal is 3.3% over a year ago and we are now watching what the jbs shutdowns will have on the meat industry. especially if it drags on for more than a few days >> a big story that we are watching eamon javers is on that as well. contessa brewer, thank you big story there. all right. on deck, a long overdue push by financial firms to support black businesses on the 100th anniversary of the tulsa massacre we will get more on that. as we head to break. china announcing a shift in the child limit policy to refresh the aging population raising the birth threshold to 3 per couple, not 2.

5:47 am
is there any way to measure that >> reporter: brian, great question it has controversy to it it would help. you have to look at the situation with black businesses. if you look at the combined revenue of all black businesses before the pandemic, it was $270 billion. brian, if you look at walmart's annual revenue in 2020, that is about $540 billion black people need to support black businesses to close the gap, we would have to create more that is why there is hope for the financial companies to build p more black businesses and generate more wealth that is one of the big things about greenwood. the black dollars stay in the community and generate more wealth >> frank holland in tulsa, oklahoma frank, a lot of stories to be

5:51 am
funds they track hit a one-year high recently. the extra boost that has come has pushed the amount of money gone into u.s. money market funds to more than $300 billion just this year let's say that again louder for the folks in the back. $300 billion has been thrown into u.s. money market funds in 2021 in just five months. look at that chart the amount of money going into boring money funds is double that over the next biggest group which is u.s. bonds. global stocks are third and u.s. stock equity is fourth on the list epfr notes this surge is due to quote epic levels of fiscal stimulus and the view that covid may be winding down in a few months
5:52 am
why do you care? at some point that huge amount of cash may be put to work doing something. more than sitting in a money losing money market fund and whatever it goes to, could have very nice up side ahead. especially if inflation eats the value of that money. random and hopefully interesting. let's find out if it is and where that money is headed and bring in jeff, chief investment at capital wealth planning i thought you would like that rbi, jeff. i put it together thinking about you. all that money just sitting around being eaten by inflation. do you think it comes in the equity market at some point? >> if past is prelude, brian, the money will come in somewhere around the top or peak in equity prices that is the way it has always been and that is how i think it
5:53 am
