>> welcome to "barron's roundtable" where we get behind the headlines and prepare you for the week ahead. i am jack otter. what is the fitch rating downgrade mean for the healthy economy. has the fed defeated inflation? i'll ask economist jeremy siegel remember the jetsons flying cars, we are one step closer as air taxis are set to kick off jovian beaver will tell us how it works. later tupperware popped the lid off stop jumping 500% in one month. we begin as always with three things investors on a think about right now. stocks were down for the week as bond yields search ten year treasury hitting the highest number since last november before pulling back on friday but cooler the inspected jobs report lifted spirits to end the week. ship stocks have rallied on a.i.

but rally from the biggest semi conductor disappointed investors. amazon with a massive profit, will take a look at the tech giant stop what we learned about the health of the consumer. on the "barron's roundtable" carleton english and jacob. , the stocks did in down but it seemed like a goldilocks number coming from the fed in terms of the payroll. >> the payroll was exactly what you want to see. 187,000 jobs created below expectation the previous months were revised lower as well. we saw a job market that is creating jobs but not an overheating market vote for. an appointment remains low. but we would like to see that, for little bit but all in all this is a pretty good number this is the economy may have for the soft landing treat will be looking ahead to the cpi reading next week and i don't know what data that is but to see if we can keep getting the soft

landing goldilocks scenario to continue. jack: that doesn't come from the fed i have said on the brain because of watching it so carefully. i want to ask about the readings agency by fitch downgrading u.s. debts, most interesting the response from economists and others, why is this coming out now it's very strange. the market seem to react but you said investors are looking for something else. >> if you look at the market when the news broke in the united states there wasn't much of a reaction at all in the bond market or stock it wasn't until the treasury announced they needed to auction off more treasury than had been expected if the bond market started to move. i think that more than anything combined with the stronger jobs data from the adp that was the thing that caused the bond market to sell off and stocks as well. the one thing the refunding announcement did do with the reinforcement that the u.s. really does have to borrow a lot of money and we need to get our house in order. jack: more competition for yield

japan, europe rates are rising and so the bond investors can go other places. one interesting dynamic in the market, the yield is going up, text stock at a high valuation, are we set up for value stocks to do a little better. >> they were great last year in 2022. >> relative to some other. they have been terrible relative to growth. the things you want to owner microsoft and apple but those are very expensive. we saw that with apple's earnings the stock finished on close to 5% on friday because the numbers, they beat them but asked in the same thing for all growth stocks. jack: thinking of growth stocks not so great in semiconductor. >> to be fair and had a fair run-up this year but as earnings came out from a number of companies in taiwan semiconductors expectations are more muddy and there was told

there would be huge recovery in taiwan semiconductors with a weaker than expected demand for computer, servers, all of the things that the chips are used for and you can look at the apple results that ben was talking about with weaker demand for handheld devices. the recovery of china has been much slower than expected and also we got so excited about a.i., artificial intelligence and there is a ton of exciting things there but when you look at the revenue for a lot of the companies a.i. is less than 10% aside from nvidia so really that's not able to move the needle for the companies in terms of their earnings just in time to make investors no when you're trying to follow a trend like that make sure you understand don't just buy chip stocks understand which when you're buying. >> amd looks like it may be can get into the a.i. space. i want to ask you another tech question, amazon, blowout earnings. >> amazon is unbelievable stocks

all of our falling on good earnings amazon is not just gross margins that expanded but cost like labor moderating, e-commerce continues to grow. it's unbelievable and that is helping advertising growing because when you have more people shopping on amazon prime which you did in the quarter you can put ads it's helping advertising business, the club is a 12% as you get through economy not being so rough. more than 12% unit margin expansion, when i look at earnings that will grow 20, maybe 30, maybe 40% over the next several years in the stock trading 54 times earnings not that expensive, the stock may have more runway. jack: a good sign for the consumer, people are buying. >> is a good sign a lot of the strength on amazon's quarter was a strength of the business but a good sign for the consumer. jack: the last time he was on the show professor jeremy siegel was critical of fed chairman

without the economy crashing biden shall never not too hot not too cold does j get a better grade from the professor. >> he does get a better grade, i don't give them a terrible grade for the inflation and being so late on that we would not be in the pickle that were in but i will admit i thought his rapid rise in rates would slow down the economy much faster than we seen. there is amazing resilience, the gdp is above every single forecast of last december on what they expected for 2023. jack: where are we in the fight against inflation? >> i think the fight of inflation is a going extremely well were good have passed through uncertain service items, slow to move items, there will be more wage increase and a lot

of that is ketchup and i been critical of powell trying to squeeze down the wage earner that is not kept up with inflation he and she needs to get up to the inflation rate. i don't believe the any further hikes are necessary but the hikes that have been put in place so far have not really squeeze the economy, we see a slowdown in friday's employment report as you said is a slowdown and in particular the hours worked went down the lowest since the pandemic so we are in a slowdown but not a crash. i see a lot of resilience and my call for recession probability has definitely gone down over the last two months. jack: where is the call right now? >> i would say it's 2 - one against the recession for the rest of 2023 and early 2024.

anything can happen in the world that can upset that, what i hope is jay powell in his last news conference was much more two-sided and i see the risk on the downside as well and on the upside if we see the economy slipping we see initial jobless claims go up or any other sign of a slowdown in the consumer not only does powell have to stop raising rates he will have to start thinking about lowering rates even though there is a bit more inflation will system. jack: that lags in new forces coming with the student loan forgiveness india and so forth. let's talk about the fitch downgrade, you and others have been critical in the timing and so forth. there was one point tough to argue with it does not seem the house and the senate are functional enough to really take on the problem of a huge deficit

of national. it's going to require a difficult decision which our government doesn't seem capable of making. what are your thoughts from an economic professor of the debt and deficit. >> jack i would include the executive branch along with the house. honestly it seems like no branch of the government is taking cognizance of the deficit of the building deficit. we know far out in social security and medicare are insolvent and they cannot go on as they've gone on. i've argued i don't see an immediate crisis within the next few years it really will develop later but there seems to be no willingness to do that and by the way that is one thing that will buy the inflation upward and the more debt the higher the interest rates that you're going

to have and this is something that will eventually feed into inflation going forward. tackling the deficit is one factor in controlling the inflation. >> sadly it'll take that crisis to get the executive branch and the two other branches to do something about it. professor siegel thank you so much for coming on the show and we will see you soon i hope. >> i hope so, thank you jack. flying cars will go from fantasy to reality, i'm joined by aviation ceo joe been fever to discuss his air taxi service and how revolutionize everyday travel next. ♪ ♪ the chase ink business premier card is made for sam who makes, everyday products, designed smarter. genius! like 2.5% cash back on purchases of $5,000 or more, so sam can make smart ideas,

tupperware to stop over the last few weeks shares up over 800%. what is interesting about this this warm up didn't have much of a reason, a few months ago tupperware one of the going concern. usually not something that makes the stock go up but subset of traders but the company issuing mean stock like behavior similar to gamestop or bed bath and beyond where there is an interest in a nostalgia oriented brands. i think in the case of tupperware and probably reminds me of what we saw with hertz near bankruptcy on the onset of the pandemic were a lot of retail traders look at the stock trading cheaply and i mean less than a dollar and they think of it like a lottery ticket i'm not advising her method of investing but it is something traders tend to do and at the end of the week tupperware was saying if the financial lifeline in restructured debt that put shares up more than 30% on fridays trading. it's not about the parties or
