3:39 pm
putting twitters ba.2 rating under review for possible downgrade, the review is based on whether the funded debt portion of the deal will result in material weakening of twitter's credit metrics. no way around it. the broader picture, make a cap getting hammered looking at the worst monthly selloff in years. in less than half an hour quarterly reports from microsoft and alphabet, tomorrow were getting it from meta, facebook spirit and of course thursday, amazon, apple and analysts expect microsoft to report earnings of $2.19 up 12% from last year on 49 billion in revenue and for alphabet wall street analysts anticipate earnings-per-share $25.91 on 68 billion in revenue, could again bust a report from either of these names turn this selloff around tomorrow? let's bring it start tech analyst mark mahaney of abercorn. would you look at the big tech names these are the heavily weighted names and everyone is ready their theaters on fire,
3:40 pm
what you make of the selloff right now? >> every two years we had a bear market correction. we had in february march of 2020 and we had it at the end of 2018. you have to get used to bear markets, this is not her first bear market. keep calm in this environment. there are a lot of headwinds in all of the company's fundamentals. currency headwinds, concerns over rising recessionary risks. not just in western europe but in the globe as well and then we have these concerns of escalation out of ukraine and finally covid has not left us and we are once again we have the supply chain constraint. risks all across the board. i'd be shocked if the tech cfo and ceo if they said the future was bright, i assume all of them are going to have cost

commentary for the june quarter and the balance of the year, i expect that i don't expect these earnings for any of the shares. >> let's look at google there cannot be a positive catalyst. what if there is cloud, markedly smaller than that of microsoft cloud business people google alphabet, would you look at expect what do you think is the most boring thing investors need to watch in over 20 minutes. >> advertising revenue business is more likely to be impacted, i don't think this is good to be a material weakness, the commentary is good to be more moderated as well as it should, it is completely untouched by what were seen so far. i suspect them to sustain 40% revenue growth in the cloud business where they can catch up to aws, we should all be skeptical about that they can grow when guide with the market, it's probably good enough or google shares there is a lot of evaluation support for google it's a very high-quality asset i
3:42 pm
just don't see a stock like this moving as a major catalyst you need the market to stabilize, one that does google will be one of the stocks to rise up but i don't see that happening in the near-term. >> what your head of their needs on thursday amazon down 4% even at 2800 although the low is 2778, you have an opportunity down the line when it has its 20 stock split, what is your call. >> at the same sort of thing we have near-term weakness i would not be surprised to see amazon get cautious commentary about what they could see in terms of softening consumer demand that the distinct possibility, i love amazon and google if you give me three months ago to be cautious with these names if it's 12 months or longer, this is great opportunity. getting a by google and amazon too the best assets fundamentally evaluation and
3:43 pm
consumer internet and what i appreciate is a massive investment that they made the next two years the only country or company on the planet that invest during coping and i think we will see the results from that and accelerated consumer spend that may not show up in the numbers this next quarter or two it'll show up at the numbers the next year you want to be on amazon for that reason. what about meta they report we have a 2.8% it's been a very ugly picture down about 46%, make your case for this would or not. mark zuckerberg went off on what some believe is a tangent with the metaphors. >> all make the pitch on facebook is probably my most contrarian, why would you want to buy facebook and all the
3:44 pm
headwinds, the regulatory going too the privacy change in their ad targeting may not be as effective, facebook is going to be able to solve most of those problems is turning 12 - 13 times earnings and i think this company can grow its earnings to 20% you rarely see that quality dislocated high-quality company i could be wrong social media asset in the world and the messaging asset in the world it's got a great business model that generates 25 billion a year or so in cash i think you want to be logging an asset like that unless there's something fundamentally in the business i do believe that is the case, the market is trading like it is. if you have the 12 month outlook, please what are the best moneymaking plays in the states to google and amazon also facebook is more controversial and probably has more upside if you're near-term were intended only worried about the next three months i think the first move is probably south, after that i think there is a big

3:46 pm
durable bottom and we may have to probe the levels that we saw back in early march which is closer to 4100 then where we are the moment which is flirting with a 4200 level or so and arranging for a couple of months between the 424600 level i think the market need the catalyst it's dealing with a lot of headwinds very high inflation and some prospect that it may accelerate later this year end the fed turning hawkish, the war in ukraine that is having an impact in the ural academy and having places like the imf and the world bank trim world growth forecast for this year end next, china struggling to stabilize this economy that is a lot to put into the market to have investors enthusiastic about the prospect for earnings that are holding up pretty well a new prospect for this year shows
3:47 pm
double-digit gains for year-over-year that should be in support once we can get to a point to see in the selloff. i think were closer too the not. >> the consumer discretionary you like consumer staples, you suggested by the xlt for the consumer staples if we look at some your pictures really quick, do you get the sense for the time being though that the fed is raising rates and inflation is still here to stay away from the discretionary names. >> i think that's a big sector and dominated by amazon and tesla as far as tech on a capitalization -weighted basis were leading into those areas that tend to be more defensive in nature and defensive growth if you will like staples in real estate for the fact that look it over the next couple months with economic to decelerate from last year at a heavy pace while still

positive, nonetheless facing the headwinds that i mentioned earlier, i think it's going to require quite an effort on the policymakers not to trip the economy into a recession, perhaps not this year but more likely next and therefore the avoidance while staying long and the equity market given that macroeconomic backup in the u.s. is still reasonably vibrant is to say go into the sectors where investors will likely park risk-based capital and volatile sectors like technology consumer discretionary. >> in real estate certainly if you can't buy a whole piece of property go into the etf that does it for you. thank you very much for filming phoningin. twitter 3.6% to $49.80. does that bid that he made up $54.20 look really good to investors. let's get to charlie gasparino.
3:49 pm
let's go to what elon musk said free speech is on his twitter page, kind of makes sense by free speech i simply mean it matches the law he is a free speech absolutist that's what he wanted to buy twitter i am against censorship that goes beyond the law. if people want less free speech they will ask the government to pass laws going beyond the law is contrary too the world of people. i think what he's saying when i take this thing over we are not going to allow illegal stuff to proliferate, we are going to allow opinion to proliferate and i think that is the balance that a lot of people say is needed at twitter. when i talked to wall street executives, when we first made the bid people think the elon musk is a little crazy and people remember him for his pedal guy tweet and for his
3:50 pm
funding secured. those were aberrations. they also know him as a brilliant guy. they also know that twitter is a real problematic business and what i've heard up and down the line today was simply this from the executives, twitter's best chance of a long-term profitable company is not a public company, they have to fix their stuff it has to be private they cannot go before shareholders every quarter and explain why growth is at this and why this field enacted, it is impossible this company has very big problems to fix another private company it is the best way to fix it, they've also come to the conclusion, i think j.p. morgan goldman and i reported this over the weekend. this company was awkward to be profitable anytime soon or significantly anytime soon, the stock was awkward to match what elon was willing to pay anytime soon, the fed is raising rates,
3:51 pm
this thing is going down you know what else is going down tesla. >> i thought people thought he would walk away because tesla is good to take a hit. one more thing most of the executives at goldman sachs j.p. morgan put together the ceos you are advising twitter and worried about reputational debt under damage if they told elon musk to pound sand. the bottom line there that could get anything close too the city time soon. go back to tesla, tesla is going to take a hit people thought that would be the reason if he did back away. it's down 11%. tesla is going to take a hit anyway, the stock by any measure not satan is a backup it is a good company but he has amazing things avoiding bankruptcy it is raising rates now. this is going to take a hit.
3:52 pm
, he knows his network is gonna be down to 2 billion in a couple months, via toy and uses stock, he still worth something more than will be, maybe it is time to cash out and have some fun. i think that is what he is thinking. liz: this guy runs for different companies he is a genius he is very successful. he is superhuman. he does have fun. liz: about making money with twitter? >> i think yes, the best way to make money with twitter is to experiment with some stuff. i think you cannot really experiment as a public company. you know you've covered this and you talk to analyst those analysts are breathing down your throat every quarter. it's hard to do, if you are twitter -- if you want to raise money if you are twitter in your public in a very deep-seated
3:53 pm
problem, it's hard to fix were impossible to fix, you cannot do it that's why michael dell went private he had issues with dell they needed to fix it, the best way to fix it is to not to be before an analyst every three seconds investors, this is a good move and by the way investors get paid in san francisco don't like it you probably want to move this stuff too austin, texas and find techies from the university of texas austin. >> we have the fox market alert i was looking at the vicks you have to see this it is shooting through the roof the soul year, today it is up 18.6% right now pretty much at the height of the session, year to date you can see it is going back up too the march high let's get to the fs investment chief market strategist, are you buying right now? he been a longtime trader you
3:54 pm
take chances, things are looking a lot cheaper right now. >> we still think this is an environment where you want to focus on strategy that can benefit from volatility like multi-strategy approaches where they can put on traits that benefit from dispersion or a wide variance of outcomes in the earnings season or short exposures like agency pass-throughs and the fed stops buying agency and can benefit from a normalization there and not get carried away trying to time every bottom, we definitely agree things are cheaper coming into the year but all we really done is compress equity multiples from 21 to under 19 times, were gonna reversion. between the real economy in the labor market and financial assets which outperform the real economy market over a decade which is now reverting.
3:55 pm
stick to exposures and things that have a chance to make money in a very sloppy, choppy environment that we are in, don't try to be a hero. liz: the ten year yield 2.75%, is it a two week low? a two week lot for the ten year yield that is a fair trade. gold is up about $5, not a huge jump into a safe haven at third of 8% gain for the yellow metal the real high is the energy sector, we are now at session lows nasdaq down 490-point, as we watch a selloff we have to bring to your attention, the dow is down 720 points the s&p down 110. were getting peter the president and ceo he has 250 billion in assets under management, troy
3:56 pm
just said he is betting on volatility, obviously smart we were listening to morgan stanley yesterday he had come out yesterday this is what he we question the s&p 500 is expected to fall sharply into a bear market as they struggle with rising interest rates. the s&p right now is down rather significantly. as we look at all the happening of the last four minutes of trade tell >> i think big and quality. i think if you look at what's happening, we are seeing the mean reversion. it is really simple. rates go up. you have mean reversion. you can't have these crazy growth stocks continue on a tear when the cost of capital is going up but the fed is raising rates because we have incredibly strong economy. inflation they're having a hard time controlling. they can control the demand side. they can't control supply. they can't magically create 3.8 million more houses. can't magically stop
3:57 pm
deglobalization happening because of ukraine, and people going to higher cost places to get their supplies. all those things will be passed on to the consumer. when you have all of that, you can expect volatility and you can expect lower profits because of the higher rates. i would stick with things that can definitely weather the storm. that would be large cap and mid-cap. liz: i need to interrupt you, looks like the nasdaq may go down 500 points. we're down 498 at the moment. we want our viewers, especially ones listening on xm channel 113 we're at session lows for all the major indices. peter, you have to tell me if you foresee, because we already have the nasdaq? a bar market, 0% or more off the recent highs. do you predict a full-blown bear market overall or do you see recession? can you make a call here? >> i think we have a full-blown bear market it is hidden, hidden by the dow and s&p 500.
3:58 pm
big tech, meme stocks, a lot of cryptocurrencies, chinese stocks, small cap stocks, bear market can, bear market, bear market, bear market. i think we'll see a healthy correction. that happens every year on average. now we have a lot of excuses to have one. so i think when you're going through something like that, sticking with bigger, sticking with quality, it softens the blow. last four bear markets was painful but it softened the blow to be in big, big companies going through that there is too much going on, unemployment too low to call a widespread bear market but there are plenty of bear markets happening behind the scenes. liz: our trader at top of the show said he is shorting s&p. but you're not. >> absolutely not. liz: ivv, you also like the mid-cap index fund, vanguard vo. we can put those up to see how they're faring but yeah, the nasdaq went down 500 points. down 491 at the moment.
3:59 pm
we do look at a day like this as sort of nerve-wracking but flip the narrative for us on the s&p? >> we, i mean the way you flip the narrative. why is the fed raising rates? economy is so strong. unemployment is low. demand for labor is high. demand for everything, boats, planes, houses, food, remains very, very high and so are they going to have a perfectly soft landing? probably not. they're not really great nailing that. not like they're raising rates for no reason. remember there is another side of this equation, these big companies are making a ton of money. that hasn't changed. all we've seen is the multiples contract a little bit. we've not seen these companies having to lay off a bunch of people and demand for what they're offering going down. i like sticking with the bellwethers. they will get you through the storm. liz: we're in a storm. peter, thank you for being
4:00 pm
ballast in the ship so to speak. 30 seconds before the closing bell, alphabet, google numbers, microsoft numbers. dow looking to close 288 points. nasdaq to new session lows. [closing bell rings] we see fears of a china growth slowdown and problems still in ukraine. that will do it for us. "kudlow" is next. ♪. larry: hello, everyone, welcome to "kudlow," i'm larry kudlow. so one day later i am still irrationally exuberant about elon musk buying twitter. elon has unleashed a political earthquake seven months before the midterm elections. free speech may be back again. it's a complete nightmare for the woke left. remember elon musk the guy who called himself a free speech absolutist. then he said free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy. twit
