5:13 am
louisville, is cold. >> louisville, kentucky is minus 3. we will get cold bill, with your santa hat on, is this the year we will see a santa claus rally or will we get coal >> this is fun, but also really holds up quite well. as you mentioned, up 1.3%. to put it in perspective, the market is up .20% during any seven-day period also, up 77% of the time normally up 57% of the time. again, significant differences the other thing i looked at which is december, in general, is a good month. it usually is impacted by what happened the year to date before that usually if you have a bad year before, which we have, december
5:14 am
is not as good which we experienced. when you look at the santa claus rally, 69% of the time stocks rally during the santa claus rally. santa may come again this year. >> if santa were to make an appearance for the santa claus rally, which would do well >> i think it is a generally me, personally, if i was looking at my shopping list for christmas, i would continue to look for the high quality, you know, stocks particularly deep in valuation the issue is i'm very festive about this, i do think we have more challenges ahead which is
5:15 am
what you talked about earlier which is the recession coming up next year and how much more we hike interest rates, et cetera you have to be positioned and ready to get through that. all being a positive run for the short-term >> we heard so much about the recession talk whether it is shallow or deeper. we had noted hedge fund manager david tepper on yesterday. he was leaning being short right now. the markets followed through on that yesterday is there a sense of the consensus? are we due for a market down turn in the first half of next year >> i think it would be odd not to struggle the a bit if we finally see the economy faltering. you know, right now, you just look and the economy is actually
5:16 am
holding up better. that is part of the issue. the worry that the fed may have to hike harder -- it is not like they are trying to hurt the economy. that is the secondary effect that is getting inflation under control. it would not surprise me to see more, you know, struggles as you actually see some weakening economy in the latter half of the year i think slowing into it. >> all right the thoughts from bill stone in the santa hat. merry christmas, sir >> thank you still on deck for the show, the one faang stock about to do something for the first time since the dot-com bust down more than 50% so far year to date. this is your mystery chart revealed when "worldwide exchange" returns after this

5:21 am
impressive when you consider the fact that sam bankman-fried's parents had to guarantee his faefr and put -- behavior and ey in the home. the former federal prosecutor said this is an unsecured bond an empty promise only backed by his parents interest in their home which is what they will lose if he flees >> any word on how he pled to those eight criminal charges that are on the record >> reporter: there was no arraignment because the presiding judge was out. sam bankman-fried has not entered a plea for the charges that should happen the next court hearing on january 3rd in the meantime, he is headed to california it is unclear if he is flying commercial or paying to fly private. a source close to the team says

5:23 am
alameda before resigning in august he has been quiet on twitter last time we saw a post was november 8th as the empire was unwinding saying the past few days had been dark it is unclear if any back channelling is happening >> then finally, mac, does sam bankman-fried have room to cooperate with prosecutors >> reporter: now sam bankman-fried is back on u.s. soil, he doesn't have leverage unless he has intel on other bad actors in the industry former federal prosecutor said sam bankman-fried will likely be trying to gain cooperation credit by providing information that may be useful in other investigations that being said, it not ais not easy as it sounds. he has to provide information to lead to successful prosecution of others.

5:33 am
nasdaq off the 2% loss yesterday and on pace for the third down week in a row. the index is the worst performing u.s.average of the group down more than 8% this month and down 32% so far in 2022 that would make it its worst year on record going back to the 32% loss in 2008 you remember what happened then. joining me now is cnbc contributor alex cantrowitz. this has been a down year. is that similar story going to be something we have to look for in 2023 as well? >> absolutely. the fed is showing no sign of slowing down which means the new math for tech companies will not be valued as much as profits that will persist in 2023.
5:34 am
there will be more trouble ahead. more struggles more apprpressure to cut. it is not getting better for tech >> this is a story we talked about valuations and the affect of higher rates making it more competitive. what about the earnings story? there's been optimism that the earnings for technology companies are not as bad is that something to look forward to in 2023 >> i don't know, dom this seems to be a damned if you do and damned if you don't market if the earnings data is good, then they will say okay, the fed will raise rates more. let's pull back a little more. if they miss earnings reports, then investors will flee the stocks if you are investing in tech, i would say the long term is your friend
5:35 am
you have to think about the fundamentals of the companies. you can't think about it in the quarter to quarter basis the fed will pull off the rises. any news in any direction, you can find a negative story there. if you think a come ofuple of y ahead, that's great. >> alex, we want to call attention to amazon.com. that was the mystery chart one of the big cap tech stocks that's been around since the bubble it is trading at the lowest level since 2019 having lost half of its value this year. this year would be worst, compared to the dot-com bubble amazon still trades 62% forward
5:36 am
earnings what do you think? >> i had a feeling this is the mystery stock. amazon is the poster child for the problems that have emerged for tech especially the fed has spent many years in the zero interest rate policy and now is climbing back what the incentives were previously was spend on infrastructure and spend on growth now it is control costs. you had that in combination with the amazon need to scale infrastructure in the middle of the pandemic the costs went out of control. earnings expectations were measured up on years that were difficult to match you end up having the company as the coyote with the road runner off the cliff. running, running, running and no more ground to run on. it is basically gone from the darling to a company in free fall those facts will not change a
5:37 am
any time soon unless andy jassy can change things. it is not just you can cut a bunch of employees and your numbers look different there are facts on the ground that amazon has to deal with that will be a struggle >> speaking of the down draft we have seen, one of the victims in the year in valuations has been cathie wood and ark invest many have seen tremendous losses over the course of the year as some of the big disruptive stocks have fallen out of favor. do you think those will become story lines to the up side in the coming year or is the headlines still there? >> that is what cathie has been saying there is logic to it when the fed moderates its stance, you have the companies that suffered the most the tech companies, especially
5:38 am
the high growth tech companies they stand in line to gain from the benefits of the switch the question is, again, when does that switch happen? does it happen next yquarter? deep into next year? we don't know. the fed is determined to get the inflation story under control. so far, all of the data we see is that is not happening fast enough for its liking. as long as that is the case, the high growth stocks are the ones that suffer the most when it flips, cathie wood's funds will go high areer than t past we can expect damage for those stocks and other big tech stocks. >> alex, we have a few moments left here. what do you think will be the biggest tech story of 2023 >> i have been watching this stuff happening in the ai space.
5:39 am
i think there is a productivity boom in the world when companie and individuals understand how to harness now we are getting it in our hands. that will make a big difference as people find uses for the technology and put it into action i think that is the number one story to watch as we move into next year. >> alex kantrowitz, thank you very much. have a great holiday weekend, sir. >> thank you, dom. coming up on the show, the latest on the massive winter storm that is creating conditions that are hazardous across much of the u.s. and harming travel for those trying to get home for the weenekd.

5:51 am
large this week is a whipsaw thin volume. expectations and it is interesting to see the market has moved to and advticipatory market we are trusting and hoping that the fed is going to continue to stay committed to what they say. let's rewind a year ago, dom they talked about the transitory component. they were dead wrong the market is ahead of itself. the vix is elevated. where we are in the s&p 500 is a thin trading day going into the long weekend and we are at the lower end of the range i have cautious optimism i'm wearing the red coat a small sliver of hope for a santa claus rally. >> it is not possible by any
5:52 am
measure and we have seen a dismal december so far we refer to the santa claus rally and people say it is the final five trading days of the year generally speaking, is the sentiment in your mind one that can turn around or will we be like this for the first half of next year? >> it has been a negative year the santa claus hasn't happened. there is still time for it to happen sentiment is negative. it has been a difficult year there is not a lot of change that will happen between now and the first quarter. we are still feeling negative in the short run. we are looking for three things next year. unemployment to go up to 5%. fed funds over 5%. we expect earnings to go down 10% or more. in the beginning, it looks negative we think there is a lot you can do to protect your portfolio whether inflation hedges or
5:53 am
going to defensive sectors like% heth health care. we will see what happens the last week of the year. there is a possibility things go higher i hope we get the santa claus. if it is, it will be short lived. >> chris is bringing the coal for investors stockings. you mentioned defensive parts of the market things you like in health care can you take us through the shopping list hypothetically given the dire outlook >> on the healthcare side, amgen or johnson & johnson those companies should persist with a shallow recess or avoid and get the soft landing on the other side, there is energy names occidental or chevron. those are great inflation hedges if the economy goes down and it
5:54 am
suffers, this seems from the oil and natural gas. point of view, we may see a different tact in the energysector with a recession. that is different from what we have seen the last 30 or 40 years. >> jeff, what do you think are you getting defensive? what is on your shopping list? >> dom, we transitioned from growth to value. i agree with chris on energy we want that sector to persist we like united healthcare and johnson & johnson. industrial shift is appropriate. i'll push back on chris is two of the three things he talked about is earnings expectation. prices have come down. valuations one thing that is under appreciated is the lag effect. i go back to all of the years i traded u.s. treasuries and look at the lag we saw the 10-year treasury pop from 1.5% to 4.5%. what happened a month later is
5:55 am
equities crater. to chris' point, down 10%. where i think he is too defensive and too bearish is the market has the ability to move higher now the dollar has cooled and the vix has come down. we see treasuries tethered i think that puts us in a place where we see pessimism and we look at the moving average in the s&p 500 at 4,023 we tested there and that will catch people offsides. this is critical volatility takes markets up in the same way it takes markets down >> chris, that is an interesting point about the dollar the fed has been ahead of the curve with raising rates and fighting inflation is the dollar story fact it rose so much and not rolling over, but come off significantly is that a story for the early
5:56 am
part of 2023 >> it may be one thing i would say is while we are negative in the market on the short run, i agree if earnings coming down be, but we're finding a bottom, the market can rally what the market does is separate i don't disagree with jeff as far as the dollar story, for now, the dollar is stronger both because there it is a flight to safety and well as the fact the u.s. economy is out performing europe and china has been shutdown for the most part it is helpful for the s&p 500. 6% of the s&p 500 revenue is happening around the world i agree. if the dollar gets weaker, that is helpful for the s&p 500 that makes our goods more competitive around the world that could be a bright spot for 2023 that people are talking about. it is something that could be a big story for 2023 >> chris, i like to jump in and
5:57 am
say that could be the bright spot for rest of 2022. what i'm trying to say is everything is reactionary to the fed. we see a lag effect. we have a little bit movement higher we are testing the moving average. people are caught offsides that is the volatility that moves marketis higher. >> jeff and chris, thank you for being here i wish you a happy holiday weekend. that is it for "worldwide exchange." happy holidays and merry christmas and happy hanukkah "squawk box" picks up coverage next we'll see you back here on tuesday morning. so, you can both stay comfortable all night. the queen sleep number 360 c2 smart bed is only $899. save $200. only for a limited time.
