9:14 am
from instacart it's only 6 bucks. but it is up for 4 bucks look, let's stop kidding around. things are too expensive for the working person everybody is rich on wall street they don't feel it but powell is sensitive to the idea that you still can get a job too easily that's not what they want. >> you have made that point quite clear. >> well, because it's right. it's good to be right. it's good to be the king >> some calls on things like hyatt hotels an upgrade over that we'll talk about the lack of ipos stunning statistics how empty this year has been it's having its slowest year resqwkn e reet"

9:46 am
the s&p 500, up 1.4%, that is a risk-on day. engineer is lagging a little banks still up but lagging all the big tech stocks are 1%, 2% off apple is the one exception here. still a pretty good day. these stocks are so big they move the s&p 500 rather notably. did you see these case-shiller numbers? i thought 24er7 had he pretty relevant look at the numbers. up 16% in july that sounds like a lot but the expectation was 17, 17.5%. and it was 18.7 in june. why does it matter well, because it looks like housing is moderating. okay isn't that what we want? we will get to new home sales at 10:00 a.m. this morning. so far this is a good sign we're playing the inflation game you watch the components that
9:47 am
matter commodities, as jim has been pointing out, clearly peaking. you can make an argument that housing is starting to peak. we will get more data points it is reasonable to make those arguments. you see how this is slowly evolving and the case-shiller numbers were helpful for the peak inflation story. we also need to talk about earnings woulder going into earnings season in two weeks. there is the usual freakout that earnings will blow up. so far this year earnings are holding up they're essentially unchanged, believe it or not on the year, up 7%, 8%. this is the s&p 500. it was around 21 in january. it is below 16 that is 2025% deline that's a lot the unusual apocalyptic concerns are earnings are going to go
9:48 am
negative we didn't get them a my thanks to brian, who is pointing it out. 80% of materials 76% all below their historic pe ratios why is this important? in january, all these companies were way above their historic pes. this is what has really flip-flopped high valuations in early january. we have taken the valuations, as represented by the pe ratio, way, way down. and the question is are earnings going to come down we'll see. but, again, so far the apocalypse has not happened. back to you. >> appreciate that as we go to break, look at the bond report. jim has already talked about how important it is to stay to the two-year yesterday they had 4.35. how back to 4.28 we did get evans, as we said,
9:52 am
tomorrow is the big day. cnbc's delivery alpha returns in person jim and i are going to actually be there in person not our simulations. >> it will be so much fun. >> it is going to be fun as well, you can hear what the world's top investors navigate a very challenging market. to register, scan that qr code you see on the screen and we'll be there "squawk on the street" will be right back

rick >> yes, carl our consumer confidence from the conference board for the month of september out, expecting a number a smidge below 105. much better. it's a good thing. 108.0, that is the best level since april. if we look at what the current or present situation is, 149.6, that follows 145.4, also the best since april if we look at what lies ahead in the form of expectations, 80.3 that is the best since february. now, richmond fed release, the fed index at zero reverses the minus 10, and in the rearview mirror is was minus 8. our august readout, new home sales expected to be up 500,000. buckle up, 685,000 685,000. that is the best number since march when it was over 700,000 our last look at 711,000 was the
10:02 am
worst since january 2016, although it now is upgraded from 511,000 to 532,000 and to understand that big jump at a time where interest rates have been jumping all over the board, let's head east and ask diana olick. >> and you hit it, rick. two words, mortgage rates. let me tell you, mortgage rates in june went over 6% briefly, hung in the 5% range throughout july, and then in august dropped pretty sharply i think that's why you're seeing this big surprise to the upside. we saw rates come down, nearly hit 5% on august 1st and stayed pretty low throughout august we heard d.r. horton say suddenly there was demand in august it was the last-minute buyers who said, okay, i might have a chance of getting a rate near 5% before they go even higher again. i'm jumping on this now. supply came down we were at nearly 11-month supply in july now we're at 8.1 month supply. that's still about 25% higher
10:03 am
than it was a year ago but at least it's coming back towards that sustainable level 6% is considered a balanced market i will also say prices were up 8% year over year for a newly built home not the 15% and 20% price increases we had been seeing we saw in the case-shiller report that home prices were dropping, cooling from the fastest pace ever on record. i think this massive supply to the -- massive gain to the upside in new home sales really shows how incredibly rate sensitive consumers are. we are now heading back towards 7% on the 30-year fixed today. morgan >> yeah, very volatile diana olick, thank you. we're about 30 minutes into the trading session. here are three big movers we are watching we'll start with jetblue and american, both flying as the u.s. justice department goes to court arguing the company's partnership is anti-competitive. the trial is expected to last
10:04 am
about three weeks and it will give the market a gauge on the deal-making climate in general you can see jetblue and american, each up about 3% right you in meantime, starbucks is poised to open its 6,000th store in china. this will happen on september 30th and despite lockdowns and a slowdown in consumer spending, the coffee company is aiming to operate about 9,000 stores in 300 cities in china by 2025. shares are up 1% d doordash will launch a credit card in partnership with jpmorgan on mastercard's network. no details on a launch date or annual fees but shares are up 2.5% we do have the markets bouncing back a bit, a bit this morning. this is major averages look to snap what has been a five-day losing streak. the dow and s&p both closing at lowest levels since 2020 dom chu is with us and he can tell us what is leading this
10:05 am
bounce of course, what you can't tell us is how long it's going to last. >> it's already starting to wane for all the viewers, at the bottom of your screen, with that economic data athat rick and diana broke down on the housing side of things, we saw a nice, big move higher in interest rates. you can see the ten-year treasury note yield is just around 3.95, 3.96% that took a little of the positive momentum out of the market the major indices from the record highs we were at just this past fall into the beginning of this year, they are all three indices now in the so-called bear market territory. a pullback by 20% or more. the s&p/dow etf is 20% below record highs we're 23% below record highs for the s&p. and the invesco is still down 32% from its record high that's kind of the current state of play. now, in today's trade, just up until this economic data came out, every sector in the s&p was
10:06 am
in positive territory. it's not that way anymore. utilities are just about flat on the session right now. still, it's consumer discretionary, technology and communication services that are the outperformers. that's kind of what you want to see. they're the most heavily weighted parts of the market right now. utilities, again, just about flat on the session right now so far. with regard to individual stocks, morgan had spoken about the travel and leisure names on the airline side of things if you look at the broader s&p 500 beyond just the airlines, it is royal caribbean, carnival corporation, norwegian, expedia and caesars. they were some of the biggest laggards in yesterday's session given some of the consumer spending outlook and recessionary tales at play one of the places to watch is the mega cap trade apple, microsoft, alphabet and tesla are up fractionally to
10:07 am
3.5% apple and amazon and tesla, they are relatively outperforming, but those three stocks, carl, apple, amazon and tesla, were actually positive in yesterday's session. so, we'll keep an eye on those to see whether there's more investor trade interest in those names and mega caps, carl. back over to you. >> a lot of crosscurrents today, dom. stocks have come off the opening highs on the heels of the strong confidence and new home sales data let's bring in cia of international equities, david hiro great to see you we get numbers like this, it just reinforces the view for some that getting inflation or activity under control is going to be like keeping a balloon under water. >> well, we have to remember that with monetary policy, there's a lag effect i think it was mentioned last week from chairman powell. you can't expect them to flick a switch and change things someone mentioned -- i was
10:08 am
listen, the house prices -- the growth rate is starting to soften that's a good sign i mean, the fed was behind the ball they seem to be catching up. and i think it's -- it's actually good news that you don't have all this despair in the economy that, perhaps, there is a chance for a balanced softer landing yes, have you to get inflation under control. can't just be monetary policy. it has to be fiscal policy as well but we do -- don't want complete demand destruction for this to happen and we seem to see this. so, the markets are just focused on one thing you know, we're long-term investors. we look at the price of businesses and what we get for the price we pay and these data points, which move markets big time in the short term, if anything, just provide opportunities for bona fide long-term investors, such as ourselves. >> when you think about international, to what degree do you think value is being presented by what currencies have done and what the dollar has done
10:09 am
>> this is a big opportunity we hear u.s. companies kind of moaning that the strength of the dollar is clobbering them but the reverse is true if you especially a european or maybe a japanese company that is exposure to dollar-based revenues and profits you're going to get a big currency uplift in your financial performance as a result of the weakness of the home currency, the strength of the dollar so, we felt the pain, as owners of foreign assets, you immediately feel the pain when the dollar strengthens, but what begins to trickle through is the benefit to these foreign companies who have lots of dollar revenues and compete against u.s. companies so, i would expect, and normally when you see devaluation in currency you see impact on the local market share prices. we have not seen that yet.
10:10 am
this is why there is such opportunity in overseas shares you're buying these shares using very undervalued currencies. >> i get this argument, david, around the tailwinds that undervalued currencies are presenting or international equities are concerned, but you still have all of the recession concerns arguably, europe is already in a recession, for example how do you balance it with the risks? when you are talking about opportunities, where specifically do you see those? >> let's clarify something the european economy, despite all the high energy prices, the war, et cetera, despite all this, the european economy has outgrown the u.s. economy over the last six months. now, will this continue? i don't think so because of the pressure the high energy prices are putting on the european consumer however, keep in mind that europe is a huge exporting
10:11 am
nation so, it doesn't necessarily mean what happens to the -- their local business they're benefiting, they're getting this huge benefit, the exporters are, from the strong dollar so what we're seeing is, and these european industrials and financials in particular, extreme value and many, many cases you have dividend yields double the priced earnings ratio. i'm talk companies like mercedes and bmw, huge exporters, huge global companies, do business all over the world, are trading at about four, five times earnings, have dividend yields of 8% or 9%, sit on at least $20 billion net cash and can't supply the demand for their autos. and when you go to the european financial sector, you basically see the same thing banks trading at 60%, 70% of book value, yielding 8% or 9%, have excess capital such that
10:12 am
they're buying back their own stocks and increasing their dividends. in a rising interest rate environment, they should be huge beneficiaries. >> well, david, i'm glad you went through your thinking in terms of why they're so cheap. how concerned are you about the idea, yeah, it's great to have potentially export market that's going to be robust, but not if you can't make stuff they're talking about cutting back on manufacturing in certain parts of europe as a result of not having enough energy how deeply have you looked into that how much does it concern you or is it simply something that's not going to happen, in your opinion? >> well, no, there's going to be an issue with natural gas, for sure the question is, if you go through all the numbers and the arithmetic, they may come up 10% or 15% may they may storage is going very, very well, as you have seen they're almost where they need to be before winter. they are transitioning other forms of electricity generation from gas to, believe it or not, to coal and to other sources
10:13 am
they are getting gas from other places so natural gas is the issue. about half of which is used to heat homes in central europe in is the issue. the european industrials will have to pay higher prices for electricity. there's some nuances that have made electricity pricing very inefficient in europe, which they are trying to iron out. they should still be able to manufacture, albeit, albeit, at probably higher electricity costs, but i don't think, for the most part, there will be major issues with the -- being able to get output out it will just be at a higher input cost due to higher electricity. chemicals are the ground zero of this they either have to find other forms, other than natural gas, but other manufacturers are fine because they basically power themselves with self-generation or use electricity that's not
10:14 am
generated by natural gas >> yeah, we certainly heard from the chemical companies the last couple of weeks. neo today saying the energy crisis there is slowing down its eu rollout fascinating, david we'll see what the winter brings appreciate it, david >> thank you as we head to a quick break right here, we'll give you a look at our road map for the rest of the hour it includes harley-davidson spinning off its electric bike unit we'll speak with harley ceo in just a few minutes. could the fed be moving too far too fast why one fed president says just that. and then nasa crashing a spacecraft into an asteroid 7 million miles away we have those images and the story coming up. "squawk on the street" is just getting started.

10:17 am
. welcome back harley-davidson is revving up livewire, a publicly traded company via spac merger. the only electric motorcycle company on the snye floor. we have motorcycles here to boot choining us is harley-davidson chairman and ceo jochen zeitz. great to have you here on set with us. congratulations. >> thank you very much >> let's talk a little bit about the deal itself. you raised $334 million in gross proceeds, which i reckon is
10:18 am
significantly less than what was anticipated when the deal was announced back in september. is it enough cash to execute on the strategy of rolling out these electric motorcycles >> it's definitely enough cash to really start the next chapter in the livewire book and w actually -- our limit based on which we decided to go public, was well below that, so we're actually above the target we set ourselves. >> what does that strategy include? you reopened reservations for the second motorcycle model, del mar, first round sold out in minutes earlier this year. what do you expect this time in terms of demand and how many models do you plan to introduce, whether it's del mar or future models, and how quickly? >> del mar we're opening reservations today i haven't heard the figures yet but i'm sure there will be lots of excitement as it coincides with going public with livewire. the first in what we call aero
10:19 am
architecture which is bottoms-up it's the battery, the motor, it's the charging and the connective systems we develop from the ground up, the first in the motorcycle industry. we think that being public is going to give us the agility and the flexibility to really act like an innovator and a startup company, which is very different to an established company that's been around for 119 years. harley-davidson celebrating 126 years next year. we felt the strategic focus on electric versus harley-davidson was the right way to go. >> let's talk about supply chain. we know it has been an issue at parent company harley. last quarter's earnings, for example, when you're standing up an entirely new supply chain production line around a new concept, evs where motorcycles are concerned, do you have enough materials, for example? i think about richard epperson
10:20 am
who talked about the fact that the world is going to need so much more copper for the ev push do you have your hands on enough >> we believe we have the supply chain figured out. we've been producing electric motorcycles for a couple of years already. this is not really a startup, per se we will use the footprint that harley-davidson has from a manufacturing, supply chain perspective and that will help ramp up supply quite quickly we've secured the supply for the next couple of years and so we feel confident. >> i know we've had this conversation before, but who your demographic is for these bikes. are you concerned, especially when you look at something like pricing, that you could potentially cannibalize the base for harley-davidson? >> not really. this is really transforming the urban ride, the daily ride, into something that's exciting, that's a true adventure. harley is more about touring, cruising outside of the city and
10:21 am
focus of livewire is to change the urban riding experience and that's where we are different. i think it's also an incredible buy when you look at it and compare it to harley-davidson because it's made for the city and beyond, but it's agile, it's fast, it's performing and can adjust to the needs of the righter. whether you're a beginner, you can ride it smoothly and comfortable. it weighs 130 pounds less than the first livewire one, so it's easy if you want to go for a ride we have a bike here, we can go for a ride later on. >> morgan? >> you have no gear, so it's instant acceleration and we have different ride modes so you can adapt it to your ride style. if you're a fast rider, agile and grown up riding like i have, it's a really fun experience in the city. >> you're pointing to one thing that has been sort of the bearish narrative on harley at large was demographics this new generation was not as interested in cruising as, say,
10:22 am
their parents. do you think that's smoothing out? >> definitely. we're appealing to more, new customers. we have our traditional core customers, contemporary new customers, new riders coming into the sport and ever since the pandemic there's a desire to be in the outdoors we riding actiademy is booked o well in advance. this narrative which i thought was a defensive narrative that was focused by management to justify declines in past years, you know, it's our job to get new people, like every company needs to find new consumers, it's our job on a daily basis. we're getting new riders into the sport, which is key. and we keep people riding as well. >> how is harley-davidson viewing the livewire investment? you'll own 74% of the consolidated on your balance sheet. is that something you'll have for a long period of time or selling stocks >> we plan to be the majority shareholder in livewire.
10:23 am
for us it's one plus one equals three scenario it benefits harley-davidson, benefits livewire, but the technological advancement that we're making through livewire will benefit harley-davidson in the future as well >> harley has seen resilient consumer demand. is that continuing, despite the fact that we do have these inflationary headwinds right now? not just here in the u.s. but the world over >> well, we think so now, we're in a quiet period, i can't talk about the third quarter at this point, but as of the second quarter, demand was quite strong and the only thing that was holding back was supply that's not going to go away completely i think we'll keep the supply challenges going for some time we want to get rid of it, but i think we will have to maneuver the supply chain for quite some time in the future as well i think we're well prepared, we have great product coming out next year as well in addition to this year. we're looking forward to a really good future for livewire
10:24 am
with our new model and harley-davidson as well. >> jochen zeitz, thank you for joining us at post 9 yeah, we'll have to see about that ride a little later thank you. check out tesla today, about a 4% gain on reports the company is expecting a, quote, very high volume of deliveries toward the end of the quarter ckn stock is positive over 12 mohs ba ia moment

pipelines. danish armed forces say the surface disturbance is more than 0.6 of a mile in diameter. the cause of the leaks is not yet clear, but poland's prime minister calling them, quote, an act of sabotage, without giving any evidence. and in washington, jury selection has begun for five members of the oath keepers extremist group. they are charged with seditious conspiracy in connection with to the january 6th insurrection on capitol hill. a majority of public school principals say they started this school year understaffed, according to a survey taken by the department of education. that is up from one in five schools being understaffed before the pandemic. among the hardest to fill jobs are special education teachers and transportation workers carl, back to you. >> bertha, thanks so much. as we said this morning, chicago fed president charles evans says he's getting a bit nervous about going too far, too
10:34 am
fast. >> you continue to stick to the line that recession can be avoided here, even though i think there are a lot of people worrying that monetary policy comes with a lag and you're not really waiting or pausing to see what the impact of the moves that have been taken already - >> i'm a little nervous about exactly that there are lags in monetary policy we've moved expeditiously. and we've done three 75-basis point increases in a row and there's talk of more to get to that 4.25, 4.5 by the end of the year you're not leaving much time to see each monthly release >> joining us this morning to talk about that and all the fed speak we're getting over the next few days is former atlanta president dennis lockhard. good to see you. >> good to be back >> as this window reopens, do you think there will be more variety in how fed officials speak about the terminal rate, at least, or the way in which the fed is playing this game
10:35 am
do you think evans' comments here are material? >> well, charlie evans is just one voice. i suspect there are other people on the committee who feel similarly. the most recent indication we have is the dots in the sep last week they were very tight there were eight or nine at 4.25 to 4.5, and then just one fewer below that so, it strikes me the committee consensus is very tight at the moment and it looks like the path of policy to either 4.25 to 4.5 is in everyone's mind >> evans did say at that level he thinks that would look restrictive enough would you go along with that >> time will tell. you have to see how inflation
10:36 am
actually reacts to this. i think there are two basic scenarios simplistically put one is inflation continues to be stubborn and the other is that inflation softens or disinflation as desired actually occurs if you can tell me which of those scenarios plays out, i'll tell you whether it's restrictive enough. >> just to dig into that a little more, dennis, where would you be looking at the data where inflation is concerned there are many in the market -- we had cathie wood on this morning talking about the fact that inflation has peaked, but we know that's not necessarily going to be the case when the fed looks at its preferred data point, the pce, later this week, which is lagging >> well, i think it's important to follow the month-over-month numbers or quarter-over-quarter meaning the shorter term indications of the current run rate of price increases.
10:37 am
we obsess over the 12-month numbers. there's a lot of history in that and those numbers that are really nine, ten, 11 months ago. i would be watching the month-over-month numbers we have a pce inflation number coming out on friday of this week, i believe. that's the next indication of what inflation was doing in august and maybe we'll see some signs of encouragement the problem the fed has, and i felt this when i was there, is they're always looking in the rearview mirror. you've heard that before and the numbers basically are telling you what was going on several weeks ago when the surveys were done. they don't tell you what's going on now >> one of the things the market was a bit edgy about going into the month was qt i wonder, do you think we can start to draw some lines between
10:38 am
that process and what treasury volatility has been like the past few weeks >> you know, it's still very early in the process i think the treasury volatility is more markets roiled by all kinds of circumstances that have come together. a lot of uncertainty, you know, a lot of concern about the path of policy and the higher rate environment. it's a little too early, it seems to me -- september was the first month in which they hit full stride in quantitative tightening, so i'm not sure you can connect those two at this time >> all right that's a question we'll continue to ask as we have you back dennis, thanks for the help today. dennis lockhart. >> thanks, carl. up next we'll have the largest natural gas producer in the united states, with prices hitting a two-month low. of course, hurricane ian is approaching in the gulf. we'll be rhtac ig bk. - yieldstreet presents: alternative investing

10:42 am
oil prices are higher as you see this morning, after crude tumbled to what was its lowest level to january natural gas also giving back some of yesterday's gains after breaking a two-day losing streak, all while major oil producers such as bp and chevron are halting production in the gulf of mexico in preparation for what may come as a result of hurricane ian. joining us now to discuss it all is the largest producer of natural gas in the united states and the company's ceo, toby rice good to have you again you know, your production's nowhere near the gulf, obviously, pennsylvania, west virginia, ohio but i am curious, any expectation what this storm will mean in terms of production that does, perhaps, come from the gulf >> hopefully the hurricane will miss the major producing areas in the gulf coast. one of the things you have seen recently is production is up in the united states, which is a
10:43 am
good thing, and it's making sure we have the energy we need here in the united states to get through tough times. unfortunately, can't say the same for the rest of the world and currently in the grips of an energy crisis. >> yeah. tell me more about what that means in terms of what you produce here and whether it can wind up over there in some fashion. obviously, we've got this weird story about potentially at least, you know, russia sabotaging its own pipeline. we don't know that, but we're wondering what's going on over there with nord stream. >> we've seen commodity prices slip recently in the united states, and that's the output, people's concern over recessions and lowering demand for commodities. this crisis is really unfortunate. how did we get here? what started as well-intentioned approach towards building a more sustainable future with esg, the overprioritization of the environmental impacts of esg have led to unintended consequences where we're at from
10:44 am
an environmental perspective, you know, we're on track in the last 12 months emissions from coal have essentially wiped out all of the environmental benefits we receive here in the united states from 15 years of renewables investments on the social side, these crippling energy prices are causing tremendous pain and suffering around the world europe is paying over 2 1/2 times more for energy on a gdp basis. utilities are crashing and being nationalized and this is a really extreme situation from the social side of things. unfortunately, we're taking shrapnel here in the united states we've seen the whack-a-mole we've been playing on how to get our energy under control, first by going after oil and releasing oil from our strategic petroleum reserve. not a sustainable solution then you see the move towards lowering -- trying to lower the price of refined products. that is not a sustainable solution and then we see, now we're
10:45 am
seeing electricity prices rise in new england we've seen electricity prices go up, increase over 64% in massachusetts and rhode island up 100% in new hampshire you know, we've got to stop playing whack-a-mole with our energy policy and start bringing sustainable solutions to the forefront. that solution is unleashing american energy to add to supply the world critically needs so we can end this energy crisis in the world and get back to having a more sustainable, profitable, peaceful world. >> right we've heard you -- we've heard you send that message before, specific to that, where does this manchin bill on the permitting stand in terms of whether we're going to see that -- see the light of day >> this is a very important first step towards giving our industry the ability to alleviate this energy crisis th thankful for the leadership of senator manchin and caputo for
10:46 am
proposing legislation that will allow us to build infrastructure in this country and make it a little easier. this is the first step and there's a lot more work we need to do to facilitate these projects i think when you look at the amount of infrastructure we've been able to build in this country over the last 20 years, we've been able to build infrastructure, but for some reason, the last six years, our ability to build energy infrastructure has been stalled, blocked or opposed it's not because we forgot how to build energy, it's because we've had legislation that's too onerous. >> you talk about energy infrastructure and that will change the entire dynamic of the question i'm about to ask you, but in the meantime, natural gas prices historically tend to be very volatile. i mean, we've come off in recent days, in recent weeks from the highs this year, but it's still incredibly elevated here in the u.s. what is your outlook as we do go
10:47 am
into the end of the year >> gas prices are going to be over $7 is what the strip is showing. that is elevated from the average of 20-year average you look in the future and you see prices above the 20-year average. we believe we can create a more sustainable gas pricing scenario if we can unleash u.s. lng on the world stage. exports mean surplus here in the united states. surplus means more sustainable prices and lower prices for american consumers so, it's actually -- we can do two things at once we can give energy security to the world and lower energy prices here in the united states by creating this surplus through exports. we're looking forward to how this legislation is going to allow us to build more of that critical infrastructure and make that happen. >> we had comstock leadership on the show yesterday one of the things they talked about is running their wells as if nat gas was priced at $2.
10:48 am
how much does it cost for you to extract nat gas from the ground right now? and what does that mean in terms of eqt and profitability moving forward? >> we are a low-cost operator. at eqt, we generate profits and free cash flow at a gas price a little around $2 that's well below where gas prices are today so, you say, with this market signal you're seeing where gas prices are north of $7, what is america's largest gas producer growing supply the answer is very simple but disappointing at the same time we are out of energy infrastructure we do not have any more pipelines. you can't push a rope uphill, you can't put more gas in a pipeline that's full that's why this infrastructure is incredibly important. i'm saying loud and clear, with more infrastructure, industry will step up and bring the supply america needs, the world
