5:03 am
official in the coming weeks and comes one day after china imposed export restrictions on key metals used to make computer chips. meanwhile there's a new app that will allow users to retain followers from instagram and keep their same usernames. the rollout is a direct challenge to twitter which has faced numerous controversies since elon musk bought the building last year for $44 million. and shein is in talks with the new york stock kpainch and the nasdaq about a potential debut, but timing remains of concern as it's under scrutiny with the u.s. lawmakers over its labor
5:04 am
practices and as a result may scrap plans. sh shein could be the biggest company to go public since the riding giant in 2021 at $60 billion. >> as you mentioned, a lot of questions about the company, something we'll continue to watch. turning our attention to the broader market, and if history is any indication, solid marks could carry over to the rest of the year take a listen. when the s&p rose 14.3% in the first half, it climbed in the second half of the year. going back further for the dow, since 1897 when it gained 2% it posted an average gain of 6.2%
5:05 am
let's bring in vance howard to answer that question vance, good morning. how are you? >> hey, frank, how are you doing today? >> vance, i have to ask you, how do you see stocks in the second half of the year we have some recession concerns. at the same time, we have disruption of the ai. >> i'm not concerned at all. the trend of the market is up. and as long as it's up, you trade it to the long side. any pullback you get, i think you've got to short of shut off all the negativity and trade what actually is happening what's happening, franki, is the market is going up they say don't find the market don't fight the trend. >> let's put this all in perspective. the s&p is likely to rise in the second half of the year. that would put it at about 4876
5:06 am
year end levels we haven't seen since january 2022 right now looking at the cme fed watch. how does that influence your theory that we're in a new bull market and the stocks have an upside >> like i said, another thing, too, think about this you've had a great half of the year think of the hedge fund managers that didn't participate in the upswing we've had. when you look at the great first halves and second halves, you have people trying to change it. you have fomo. fear of missing out. you've got $5.5 trillion in cash that's an amazing amount of cash >> so it's just cash on the sidelines. we keep hearing about the market broadening out is. this going into that big tech trade? are you still confident in that?
5:07 am
i have to ask you again, how does that change that ai mega cap tech trading in your mind? >> i don't think it changes that at all i think it's going higher. i think that is the future i think there's so much opportunity and i think the people need to jump on the b bandwagon and there's a lot of money being missed stocks are doing wonderful things >> so you're still on the bandwagon, but you gave us some other picks. i want to talk about the picks in the payment pace. whoo are you so bullish when you see all of the trading >> it's starting to broaden out. one of the reasons i do like these, it is breaking out to a new 52-week high the way stocks double is they've got to make it a 52-week high to double your money, but they've had all canal of acquisitions. it's going to broaden out their profitability. the people are spending money. ice wonderful. >> vance, they are spending
5:08 am
money, but they're going to run out of money it's technically on credit i know it's money to visa, but it's on credit. >> this economy is doings well everyone is thinking the economy is not doing well. i is doing great i don't think we're going to go into a recession i think fed chair powell is going to sidestep things i think the inflation is starting to control itself aisle bullish. i'm bullish. >> 95% invested in the markets that means 5% bnds will stay the way they are for the rest of the year. >> we're more than 95 'em. we're at 99% we're buying on pullbacks, breakouts, rotating money to different asset classes that we think are going to outperform. mega cap growth is our top holding. i encourage people to get off the sideline and take advantage of the wonderful new bull
5:09 am
market. >> great to see you as always. a lot more to come on "worldwide exchange" including investors have to note today but first we go live where opec is holding its annual seminar just days after one of its most influential members say it's taking crude off the market. plus the biden administration under fire for its apparent social media meddling, and talks at a standstill as $19 billion of trade gets tied up icadan na sports have much more ahead when "worldwide exchange" returns stay with us well, what if you partner with ibm and red hat, use a hybrid cloud solution to connect data across clouds, then analyze all that data with watson. okay, but this needs to meet our... security standards? yup. compliance standards? mm-hmm. so they get the insights they need... yup. in real time... check. ...to make quick decisions? check. aaaand check. that's the solution ibm and a global bank created. what will you create? ibm. let's create.

welcome back to "worldwide exchange." let's get an early check on the asian markets. our julianna tatelbaum is standing by in the newsroom with much more. >> frank, good morning great to see you hope you had a wonderful long weekend and holiday yesterday. here in europe, we're off to a sluggish start there's not much of a narrative with you guys off yesterday. losses across the board in every major region is down this morning. we did get some final pmis for the eurozone this morning and they show the eurozone private sector business activity has contracted for the first time this year in the month of june some of fairly downbeat on the data front ftse 100 down 0.6% this thursday the financial regulator is meeting with a number of banks to discuss how
5:13 am
they're passing on higher interest rates in the form of higher interest rates, the idea being the banks can do a little more to protect households and the economy as the country deals with higher interest rates they're trading weaker here. 's a picture of how asian markets closed up shots. hang seng and hong kong ended lower. we also got some final pmi data ott of china the caixin services pmi came in, climbing more than expected. it logged its weakest reading since january, 'ing to the momentum growth is slowing in china and we could see more of a policy response from chinese authorities. >> our julianna tatelbaum live in our london newsroom. turning back to the energy trade, it's a missed trade for oil prices with wti crude up brent, however, is lower as worries about a global slowdown
5:14 am
continue to weigh in on sentiment. this coming just days after saudi arabia and russia announce they'd would increase and extend their production cut this summer cnbc's dan murphy is in vienna where the opec group is holding its annual meeting dan. >> it's not an opec meeting, but there are holdings what we have seen in the last 24 to 48 hours are significant moves from saudi arabia and russia, the saudis moving to extend their so-called lollipop productions, cutting it by a million and russia coming along and cutting exports by 500,000 barrels. what's interesting is we haven't seen a more profound market action we're still seeing it track around 70 u.s. dollars a barrel. what gives the last few minutes we heard
5:15 am
the fed minister actually speaking on stage saying there's a pretty clear disconnect between prices and fundamentals right now. the view in the market is we will see a tightening in the second half. but by exactly how much and when it starts to event yat remains to be seen we've seen reek macroeconomic concerns continuing to weigh right now including concerns out of china and renewed concerns across the economies including the united states which have been keeping a lid on prices what's interesting is the energy minister, from the action we've seen really perhaps puts to bed any rejections by the producers to put things together and stabilize the market. >> this isn't an actual opec meeting. it's something a bit different outside of those events, can you tell us who else is in
5:16 am
attendance >> this is interesting so we're actually seeing some key european ong majors on the grounds here of course, a lot of the major gulf producers others are coming on to have a conversation about what's happening in the oil and energy markets in the second half what's also interesting is the presence of cue european policy makes like the energy commissioner she's on the ground to try to form some kind of engagement between the producers of golf from around europe and broadly around the world with policy makers because the other clear major focus is, of course, what's happening with the energy level and how the countries and companies are addressing issues like climate, for example, which is really the elephant in the room. >> our dan murphy live in vienna
5:17 am
thanks very much for that. we had a rough first half of the year, dropping nearly 12% while brent was down 13% let's talk about where oil and energy prices may be headed for the rest of 2023 with victor victor, great to see you. >> great to see you too. >> we heard dan break this all down i want to get your perspective can you put it in context for us the saudi arabia extending rates in august. what does that say about demand and what does that say about center >> in a normal universe under normal circumstances, if saudi arabia cut prose ducz by a million barrels a day, that's a very king can't event the market reaction, however, right now was almost nonexistent, and the main reason for that is the market perceives saudi arabia's cut proeg ducz as a sign of weakness and not as a sign of strength.
5:18 am
it sees it as a demand pretty much the atlantic basin is mired in recessionary fierce. hence, there's no reaction. >> you're saying the market doesn't feel like it's growing, but in fairness, we saw june have the second highest monthly imports on record. the first half trending higher than last year is that sustainable? maybe slower than expected, but are we seeing the china reopening that can give a real boost to the china reaction and the oil market. >> one of the consequences of all the things that happened is a lot of people have lost trust and a lot of people see high imports of chinese refineries in may, june, and they're building stocks to run them down in the second half of 2023. even though we have tremendous import figures in the last two
5:19 am
months, because the chinese economy feels so weak and the indexes are really horrid for this time of the year, everyone expects this is not a sign of strength this is a sign of hoarding before the real impact hits. >> certainly something to think about there. we're going to talk about the fed minutes from the meeting back in june it's going give us more insight into the so-called hawkish pause. how does that impact the oil market and the thought that you look at the cme fed watch tool we use here. there's more than an 80% chance of a hike coming up in 21 days how does that impact the oil m market >> tremendously. it will cut into it less alone the export cut people will be looking at the fed. people will want to gauge the sentiment reading the market, whether we're in for a soft landing or it's going to be really, really hard.
5:20 am
today will be very eventful. >> one thing i want to ask you about, looking aet the saudi arabia cuts extending into august, we're seeing brent at 75.5 do we expect it to get extended past august snit seems like oil can't find its way this year. >> yeah. that's a very, very good question because sustainable saudi arabia was producing 9 million barrel as day that it produces right now only twice in history. it's not really tenable for the saudi arabians to do this, visibly to sacrifice themselves and everyone to bpiggyback on i. they'll join those who cut, but saudi arabia cannot
5:21 am
realistically cut any further because they need the budget revenue. if they cut anymore and the prices don't move, it's going to be atragedy for the national budget expect a lot and potentially more cuts coming from them too. >> certainly something to watch. looking at brent crude down half a percent, wti up 1.5% victor, always great to have you here. flying baggage-free, dolly parton says no thanks to ai, and the trouble with trending emojis your top stories when "worldwide exchange" returns. stay with us

5:33 am
>> a lot, yeah. another quick check on u.s. stock futures with the s&p coming off its highest close since april of 2022. showing a short time ago in the red. the dow looking like it could open up 150 points lower the nasdaq down more than half a percent. while wall street has made a massive comeback, stocks, they still have a long way to go with the dow off nearly 7% from its all-time high. the s&p 500 off 7.5% and even the ai rally, the nasdaq is 14% away from its all-time high, but a new technical show, we could be hitting and probably surfacing the highs and it could be sooner than later according to our guest. tim hayes. good morning. >> good morning. >> i'm going to come to you for the technicals, but i have to ask you. we have recession concerns with very a lot of things going on that are pretty much
5:34 am
unprecedented, not even to mention the economy coming out of the pandemic still. are there something in the technicals that can cut through all the noise and give us a clear picture for the second half of the year >> the thing to keep in mind is so much negativity has been priced into stocks really thinks turned around when we got to late last year since then we've seen steady outturn and revisions a it's become clear too much negativity had been priced in as far as the outlooks for earnings. so i think what we're seeing is what often happens we're still at that point where we just now started to see flows coming back. >> great point
5:35 am
we were citing some data i want to ask you. i want to be very pointed about. this it feels like there's a lot of mixed signals. >> well, you can start with something very simple, which is the 50-day moving average, the s&p 500, which has crossed above the 200-day moving averaging and both of those are rising that's something we saw back in 2020 in fact, we have a number of technical indicators that have given us signals that we haven't seen since the second half of 2020, which began with the run-up we had at the end of 2021 i think we're getting more of a
5:36 am
mention that it's higher. >> we're look at the 50-day and 200-day charts when it comes to the s&p and we're seeing the line moving above the 200. the white line is the 50-day you're look at inflows into stocks and bonds which signals are you seeing that are giving you confidence in the second half. >> it's the fact that the flows are going -- i mean, usually when you have -- stocks are going to outperform bonds on the upside, and we're seeing that trend start to turn since we've had those outflows and now we're seeing more flows into stocks relative to bonds. what you've got now is an inverted situation where you want a shortened duration. so bonds are really a challenge now because the whole case is we're moving into a bond environment. that's going to be the
5:37 am
headwinds. they've been in a trading range for several months >> historically we have an increase of 4% versus 14% in the first half that will put us to 4670 do you believe we can get there, maybe even surpass >> yeah. i think it's likely we'll be seeing record-highs this year. i wouldn't rule out weakness during that seasonal period, september, october that stenlds to be the worst time of the year it seems like a stretch from here >> it does do you have an s&p target for year end just to give us a year end of how bullish you really are? >> no. i look at things globally as well we track the indices
5:38 am
that's the major benchmark i look at. the u.s. is leading the way here the u.s. has been outperforming and we're overweight to u.s. within a global context. so, yeah, i think we'll be likely seeing a year entering the year, we had a conservative estimate of 10% for the year, and i think, you know, we're already, you know, above -- we're going to be above that by the team the year is over. >> thank you very much. coming up on "worldwide exchange," we tee up our second half playbook and the gaming stocks as we head to break, some of your top trending stories. talk about traveling light some tourists traveling to japan will be able to show up with nothing but a toothbrush and the clothes on their back. they'll soon offer rental clothes to the business island

5:46 am
consumer discretionary over the past month do, you see the consumer willing to spend on everything including game? >> i think when you couch it in the context of consumer, and, yes, it appears to be consumer discretionary on the surface, when you look at las vegas, it's really a convention of the destination market and because of the logistics, that has taken longer to recover and is still accelerating so we do have a view on las vegas and the stocks there at mgm and secaesars. that's followed by the super bowl every next year, and with all the sports events, concerts, there's just a lot going on in las vegas and a lot to like. >> you mentioned the super bowl. before that even starts we have the nfl season which is generally the busiest time when it comes to gambling overall we saw a rise in digital gaming.
5:47 am
when you put it together, is that a higher margin business for these gaming operators >> to answer your question, first, no, not yet but the important -- the importance of you raising the point is that digital gaming has only been legal in this country for a couple of years and is pivoting its profitability to this year where there's been a period of investment and spending, and going into this nfl season, expectations are very, very high for mgm and caesars with their profits and digital players and as contessa mentioned, draftkings, which is expecting a big quarter profit for the first time >> we're talking a lot about las vegas including macau.
5:48 am
we've talked about somewhat disappointing services data. i know it doesn't relate directly to the gaming sector, but we've seen a softer economy than china expected. does that extend to macau as well >> it does whatever government stimulus support may or may not occur will become much more relevant for now. we're just -- and i was over in march to see macau for the first time, getting access, getting airlift from mainland china, and getting people comfortable and back to traveling, macau is just starting to -- recover to some state of new normal, and the importance, frank, of the new normal is the vip market business has been made legal and so it's just gone away
