5:04 am
for the company. it was the guidance that got investors worried. amazon saying in the fourth quarter it is expecting revenue between $140 billion and $148 billion. implying between 2% to 8% growth which is the key holiday weperid cloud growth in the key aws division it was below expectations and perhaps we are seeing businesses pull back on ad spending a couple of things hang with the pandemic boom which we saw is now starting to fade and the macro environment turning worrisome and potential recession and slow down in consumer spending. bucking the trend from what we saw from the likes of alphabet and meta with digital ad sales let's move on apple. the best of the bad bunch in a
5:05 am
very rough week for tech they beat on the top and bottom lines. iphone sales missed. $46 billion. services is supposed to be the division of recurring revenue. apple can continue to milk the iphone users that was a miss. 19.19billion in revenue. 5% growth. significant slowdown from the quarter before management gave hints for the fourth quarter year on year revenue growth is less than the third quarter. concerning with the iphone 14 is out and this is the biggest quarter for sales and the key holiday period they were expecting max sales to decline. that services revenue will grow, but it will be hurt by the macro. worrisome signs from apple best of the bad bunch in a very
5:06 am
rough week for tech, frank. >> arjun, you may under state how rough a week it is for tech. let's focus on amazon. a lot of us are looking at the miss for aws obviously that segment of amazon reported 20% growth. do you think investors need to be concerned about the significant slowdown for the hyper scaler >> reporter: you hit the nail on the head, frank. it was 27% growth in aws we saw microsoft cloudy vision up 25% investors expectation is high with the cloud division. there is concern with the compa companys pulling back. that is not to say that the move to the cloud is going away it has been pulled forward a
5:07 am
couple of years because of the pandemic i think that boom we saw during the two years of the pandemic is starting comparisons and we are starting to fade out a bit you will see a bit of cut on spending, but certainly companies need to be cautious. the longer term trend toward the digitalization and moving to the cloud is not going anywhere. >> recent trend, mega cap tech is hit hard as we saw. amazon down 13%. i want to correct myself amazon set to lose $140 billion in market value. it is early, arjun, you are on top of the story in europe great to see you >> thank you, frank. turning to the top story elon musk setting the bird free. his words not ours silvana henao is here with the story. >> happy friday, frank twitter is now owned by elon musk with sources telling cnbc
5:08 am
the sale has closed. among the first order of business is the firing of ceo and finance chief and head of legal policy musk is expected to assume the role of interim ceo. he may appoint someone else in the long term. musk send out a tweet reading the bird is free it is not just the ousting of the old guard. musk intends to do away with permanent bans on users, meaning people will be allowed to return a category of users that would include former president trump it is unclear if trump would be allowed back on the platform in the near term. frank, according to bloomberg, musk is asking engineers from tesla to meet with twitter to address the code >> a lot to watch there.
5:09 am
>> absolutely. >> elon musk walking in the building with a kitchen sink >> we are all worried about that >> see you later on. turning our attention back to the markets averages wrapping up a volatile week of trading with alphabet and meta and amazon, investors are looking at $8100 billion of market value wiped out in a week joining me now is gina sanchez >> it has been a pretty depressing morning so far. >> the think the question for anybody who wmanages a portfoli, is this a buying opportunity or do we need to worry about the future of the mega cap tech stocks >> look, there are two answers to that question the first is what are the valuations that will survive the
5:10 am
no normalization of rates the fed will review and the rate hikes have bitten in the economy. it may continue to go higher that will kill valuation for the tech stocks. on the valuation side, i would not look to ever return to where we were when we were at zero interest rates on the flip side, there is still long-term stories that are still real you know, you talked about aws and the miss remember that that story is enduring and continue to drive the economy for the next decade or two decdecades. the story still remains. the question is what is it valued you have to go back to the valuation school and figure out what fair value is. >> we talked about amazon and disappointment in aws.
5:11 am
this may be the bottom the global slow down and a lot of demand pulled forward logistics business is pretty strong let's talk about another business that is strong. apple. macr revenue is better than expected what do you make of the report from apple >> so i think that the report on apple is just showing or revealing the weakness that you are hearing in other companies as well that there is spending weakness that is hitting if you look at how the consumer was spending going into the latest numbers, they developed a lot of savings during the pandemic and spent on the savings. they started building up credit card balances and now we're starting to see lower and lower spending as people are starting to feel the pain of what interest rates are doing to the credit card levels. >> we are all concerned about that when it comes to apple, there
5:12 am
was a week or eight days of iphone 14 sales in the quarter what do you think will happen in the holiday quarter? people buy or gift mobile phones do you think we will see a big jump in iphone 14 demand >> i think apple sales right now are overshadowed by the broad p pull back in spending. i think the spending data will be interesting to watch. the expectations going into the holiday spending season are not very good. that came from amazon. you have to think apple is going to suffer from that as well. will they be able to recoup it later? it is hard to say. you are actually seeing quite a bit or fewer job openings. you are seeing a hit to the american spending capability apple will have to experience that to some degree. i'm not sure you will get it back in another quarter. >> something to watch. gina sanchez

oil is down $15 quarter over quarter. that will go through flow through the numbers. excuse me. >> it's early. we are all making mistakes what we are waking up to are oil prices ticking higher since the opec production cuts people are saying milder weather in europe and natural gas decline in weeks is that trend continuing or is that depending on the weather overseas >> we are going to see volatility there and softness. in europe, when we look at the gas supply situation there, they are what they need to be on storage for the beginning of winter that is because europe really fills storage at any cost in preparation. we are seeing lng tankers offshore readying to unloaded. it is a call on weather at this point through january.
5:18 am
>> it is weather dependent looking forward. energy is the place you want to be a lot of places we have seen growth do you still continue to invest in energy with the gains do you believe it is sustainable and constructive investment and good return going forward? >> we think it is still a sector you can invest in despite the fact that energy is up over 60% and the market is down 20% this year we remain constructive for two reasons. the first is we still have a very positive view on crude prices we think brent will average $100 this year and $98 next year. second is valuation doesn't reflect where oil prices are on average for upstream on coverage list, stocks are pricing in about 67 on wti which is still a large 20% discount from the forward strip we think there is still a lot of value. >> jeanine, can you give us your
5:19 am
picks in the oil sector? >> our top pick is conoco phillips we think it is a big liquid name which a lot of investors are looking for right now given the volatility in the market and volatility in crude prices it is one of the unicorn names to move to the upside with oil beta because the company is completely unhedged. they have a lot of oil exposure directly as well as indirectly through the lng operations that are linked to brent on pricing balance sheet is a force we think cash returns are strong and average to above average for this year and next year. management is very strong. we think cash returns will continue to be very strong next year 55% of cfo they will end at $9.5 billion on cash it is checking all the boxes there. on the valuation, it is still

for the third quarter. issuing disappointing fourth quarter sales guidance amazon could break even in the fourth quarter the company reporting a slowdown in cloud growth and amazon web services the stock sinking in extended trading. it is now down 13.5% turning now to discuss is nancy tengler of laffer tengler and ivan feinseth of tigress >> good morning, frank >> ivan, don't say good morning. don't worry about it >> great to be on with nancy and talk about the two important companies. >> you are under stating that. i'll ask the same question nancy, you first is this a buying opportunity or should investors be concerned about the growth of the companies long term? >> frank, you now, that is the
5:36 am
question i've been thinking about it much of the night and anticipating my wake-up call this morning. i think this if you went back to 2008 and 2009, i just have to remember two purchases. one was starbucks and the other was disney if you bought either company then disney at $18 and starbucks at $4.50, it felt like a dumb thing to do. you would be up in line with the market about 450% for starbucks, i'm sorry for disney, and $2,000 for starbucks. it is a long htime horizon i think amazon's problems are usual. consumer growth is cyclical problem with the recession i think the question is the cloud. we heard weakness from microsoft
5:37 am
and now we are hearing weakness from amazon. i think the question is is that management tightening like i'm doing or is that a crack in the cloud story? i think it is the former i think you think there is no hurry. they will not improve productivity in the fourth quarter. the companies are stressed in q4 you have time. it is an opportunity that you want to get a stock every 10 or 20 years sp >> ivan, same question sdplchlt sdplchlt >> i agree with nancy. i think amazon, first of all, i disagree with the slowing in the cloud. you may have a pull back because companies are cautious going
5:38 am
into the environment where we see a significant economic pull back the ongoing migration to the cloud has a long way to go what the cloud is today will be very different in the future and offer a more high powered connectivity and processing and constant integration of a.i. and machine learning to maximize companies data and information as a long runway amazon and aws will be a major part of that i think there is caution in i.t. spending which is causing weakness which looks to be some concern for the cloud, but i think we will see a shift when the economy starts to pick up and back to the ongoing transition to the hosted and hybrid and all types of cloud infrastructure that evenables companies. i.t. is the company's competitive edge.
5:39 am
>> one question investors are asking right now are we making too much amazon web services missing estimates or not enough of apple missing on iphone and service estimates? we talk about apple becoming more of a services company ivan, you first. >> yes, i think they are making too much of amazon missing and i think that apple's quarterly report was incredible. it was a slight miss on iphone revenue and services revenue most of the iphone miss had to do with the fact that the iphone 14 just came online within the last week of the last quarter. so they really didn't get the full impact of the demand. also they had a tough time as most companies getting components and ramping up production the demand seems to be there the delay in iphone 14 sales has
5:40 am
delay in people upgrading services apple just announced a service price increase of anywhere from $1 for some of the basic services to $2 or $3 a month multiply that out from the all-time high of 900 million user base. that is $22 billion or $25 billion of additional revenue that will receive in the next 12 months the apple story is definitely in tact that really wasn't a miss. >> nancy, ivan doesn't think the revenue miss is a big deal we are talking about the amazon web services miss. which is more of a miss? apple or aws >> i think it is aw is s miss. i actually do agree with everything ivan said related to the cloud.
5:41 am
we sauw service come in now as a cloud provider they have a different function on the cloud i think this is a blip i think this is companies being cautious there was a time azure was growing at 90% this is a log of numbers a 30% growth rate of the major portion of the business is super important. i also think amazon is analogous. you have a leadership change leadership is being tested you have a company that really needed to cut costs. i think they demonstrated that, amazon, that is. with apple, it is important to point out what ivan did point out. it is really a supply constraint story as it relates to the iphone rather than demand. services follows that growth we said in the 2013 and 2014
5:42 am
period, people said it was a handset company. the margins in that portion of the business are huge and ecosystem is very important, i think, and should not be underestimated if you analyze that against amazon, i think amazon prime is going to surprise investors as we move forward. even i was watching thursday night football last night on amazon prime i think there's a lot of opportunity. it is a recalculation. just don't be in a hurry be disciplined if you have a three or five-year time whohorizon, this is the ti to pick stocks >> that's why you needed the wake-up call >> tough to go to sleep. >> we have to watch and see the faang trade continue after the earnings something to watch nancy and ivan thank you so much for being here have a great day >> thank you coming up on "worldwide

thank you for having me. >> lizzie -- i can't get words out this morning little tired where are we going from here after mega cap tech disappointed, where does the market go from here? will we see an end of the year rally? >> thank you, frank. there's not a lot of good things you can say this week about tech if you think about where the s&p 500 is trading at 17.5 times e s&p equal weight is 14 times earnings mega tech is 22. we will see additional compression in mega cap tech it is still too early to rotate. could we see a year-end rally? i think it will be just that >> if we could see a year-end rally, it is probable. where would that leadership come from we are not seeing great results
5:54 am
from mega cap tech is this a unique buying opportunity? >> i think it is too early i think we will see additional compression in multiples we are seeing signs the market wants to rally somewhere between fed speak and higher interest rates. i think the market can rally on and if we see 50 basis points in december, which is unlikely, that could lead the market to rally. if we see a rally, it would be between 5% to 15% range. if you look at two other prolonged bear markets, great financial crisis and the tech bubble, during that period of time there were more than four 10 plus bear market rallies on the way to the bottom. you have to be selective frank, you and i have talked about high quality it is so important to focus on high quality which we believe is strong free cash flow.
