3:01 pm
4.9% economic. he see the sucking of a flat line this is what team claman countdown calls the pre-cpi trade tomorrow we get the all-important monthly read on consumer inflation. after major weekly wins for the three majors not a surprise to see tentative trade. the nasdaq has been in the red most of the session while the others are popping up and down in the green. the nasdaq down 11 points, lower the session down 110, which come way back. the s&p this is interesting it is up-and-down up-and-down just under 1.0 jones industrials of 47 spit in the win column much of the day if not all of the day let's get to the heat map you want to see what happens when a company gets a 52 billion-dollar order, look at the top of the dow and boeing shares are our jumping 4.6% aerospace leader given the biggest lift to the
3:02 pm
dow the stock is up after emirates airlines putting a fresh order for 95 but when jets the dubai-based carrier was a mix of 777 and 787 dreamliner planes. for boeing there really helping same with walt disney, caterpillar and salesforce. what you see with s&p look at the intraday chart you can see green red green red you could call it of the w will will gobye ones that are doing the best but none of them make the weight loss drugs that are so popular right now, this year as wegovy and ozempic make novo nordisk, skyrocketed, it's unbelievable how hyde novo nordisk can jump, the medical device is taking a beating because heart and diabetes are taking a weight loss drugs have shown improvements sir planting the need like stents and kidney dialysis. look on your screen kidney

dialysis leader davida is jumping 7% medical office supplier up to 5.5% above with boston scientific, dex, med tronic whole bunch of these names are powering higher it is a relief rally on the key findings on wegovy study released on saturday was not as devastating for the med tech sector as feared. while wegovy showed heart health benefits some of the findings were not statistically significant for all cardiac health issues. intuitive surgical, baxter moving higher and novo nordisk up about a quarter of 8%, the year to date chart of noto nordisk up 50%, let's get to the bigger market if you had to pick one week for the rest of the year to give power to investors the clearest street on consumer strength, this is it tomorrow in addition to the consumer inflation report october cpi and
3:04 pm
home depot, wednesday it is a biggie we get monthly u.s. and china retail sales along with target, tjx quarterly report card and thursday walmart, macy's and gap reveal their numbers but will in a matter by friday night, i hate to remind you but we are five days away from the u.s. government running out of money as the friday night deadline before shutdown looms let's get to the floor show help you prepare for, j.p. morgan asset management global market strategist and kenny polcari slate stones uber trader jack let me start with you how concerned with what is right ahead of us on friday night? >> we've been here before unfortunately and not too long ago we were dealing with the government shutdown to a managed to avoid for a little bit it's not a good way to govern as we heard earlier it's not something that were rooting for but when you compare the impact of the government shutdown to what may come later either this year or early next year with regard to
3:05 pm
breaching the debt ceiling this is small potatoes is not a good way to govern but for those individuals that are concerned about social security, medicare, those are still going to be coming through, no basic functions will still be in place is just another source of volatility and confusion that we have to deal with. >> i did not even bother putting our introduction which we call a one the big roundup of everything that's happened up until 2:59 p.m. eastern right ahead of the final hour of tr trade. over the weekend moody's downgraded the outlook of the u.s. credit picture. normally that was sent things into a tailspin but it's not. >> it's not because people honestly are getting used to the ridiculous, not steve forbes but he just had it right when he said remember the rating agencies were giving aaa ratings
3:06 pm
to all of the bond product that created the great financial crisis up until the day before the crisis hit so a lot of people don't place a lot of credibility and what the rating agencies are moody's came on downgraded outlook and left the credit rating to aaa because threatening to downgrade if we don't make a move into a certain point they are correct they gotta get the government to do something but i don't think investors are taking the moody's downgrade as a big worry some of. liz: you could argue that the two things even if they are worrisome are short-term drugs or pops it really depends. this brings me where you put your money when there's? sangeeta for the market in addition to what's happening geopolitically in the middle east. >> i think if you're worried about the overall state of the economy and think about the dynamics to shape the yield curve at the moment this is a time that takes extremely high quality duration into a portfolio, the problem we've
3:07 pm
been saying that for a long time and the sheer hasn't worked out recent changes have resulted in proof that you've gotten paid to weight as an intermediate duration high-quality bondholder you bought a five year treasury and up a little bit this year and you bought the agony are only down a little bit. we know the risk reward for fixed income the coupon cushion that you were getting your getting paid to wait out the volatility. if i had to put my money somewhere right now to weather the storm it's a high-quality intermediate duration project hands-down. >> what i'm thinking intermediate and think in 3 - 7 sweet spot five in the middle. liz: years? >> years we have to clarify summer yielding more than 5%. liz: i'm looking at the dow jones industrial 45, flat na nasdaq, are we right when we say this is pretty cpi that comes out tomorrow the expectation and
3:08 pm
inflation year-over-year of 3.% of 3.7%, what is the trade inflation is slowly but surely coming on. >> today makes perfect sense based on what were waiting for tomorrow and thursday with the ppi report what's going to be interesting that is a significant decline in cpi month over month and will see what the ppi is i'm get a be interesting to see where all the prices are coming down i know the stuff that you and i need every day the stuff that we need to live on i don't see any price relief in any of the stuff while you go to the supermarket or cvs to buy stuff everyday living i don't see relief and not at all. it's going to be interesting to see how this happens if it continues to decline which i'm still suspect i don't think it to be the decline that they say it might be down a little bit
3:09 pm
but not at the rate that they say it'll be interesting to see how the market reacts i think they'll welcome and suggest now that the fed is finished in the rate hikes are starting to work, give it more time, the fed does not need to hike anymore which doesn't mean they're going to cut it just doesn't mean they're going to hike anymore. liz: i was in the supermarket when did serial get to be $7 a box. >> exactly, when did that happen. liz: what the hell. pricing power has helped some companies with their earnings, how do you in and say i'm in on that stock. >> there's always two different ways you can play this and for all the money that we have to spend as consumers it's money into corporate coffers which is one of the things that helped to fuel a pretty solid earnings season so far. kenny makes a good point nobody
3:10 pm
experiences inflation like the headline cpi number but at the end of the day that is the number that the fed is paying attention to and when we look at cpi tomorrow and broader inflationary pressure. so much of the disinflation from last year into the share is driven by energy, so much of the reflation driven by energy i would expect that this presumption of this inflation back to energy. liz: energy is down month to date you cannot believe and if you look at crude oil they may be up by one or 2% but my point when you look at the actual price of crude oil we are three weeks in arroyo of moves to the downside i believe that is correct three weeks of decline with opec's with the monthly market report in the united states at record output. >> it is unbelievable i agree and i'm glad to see oil is coming down that will help
3:11 pm
transportation costs and all that stuff it is beneficial but i'm not buying into the argument where they say demand is waning whether the u.s. or in china and i don't see where demand is waning at all that's a little bit confusing to me but i fully expect the opec's going to come out as oil trades in the low 70s indicative reconsider the production cut, you know as well as i do they prefer to be $80 versus $70 will see what's happening, my happiest coming down i want to translate into the stuff that you and i need every day. liz: catalogs red berries for $6, i will not do it. >> did you see the communication director from the white house tell cnn the reason with people with two jobs and people struggling need for more years abiding because this policy need for more years to get to work to bring everything down my head blew off my shoulders. liz: like it is right now great

3:18 pm
included is being fed by belief, i stress believe the fcc stamp of approval on the spot bitcoin etf might be days away, let's forget the wealthiest bitcoin billionaires who is taking big bets on many of these fox business exclusive draper associate founder and venture capitalist tim draper, the window for the fcc to greenlight one of the dozens of applications closes november 17, does the sec pass or punt. >> i think the fcc allows it to happen, i think that they realize that the u.s. is starting to fall behind in technological advancement in crypto and around bitcoin and i think we lost a lot of our innovation because of the dark cloud that has been the sec. i think now this is the time for the sec to say okay, we do need
3:19 pm
etf's and we need a lot of advancements in regulatory behavior so entrepreneurs don't live with the dark cloud hanging over the heads and entrepreneurs can be really extraordinary things with the new technology that is going to transform banking and financing and also some industries, real estate and insurance under all being transformed in other countries but her sec has been so regulating by enforcement that is spreading fear throughout the land instead of spreading opportunity throughout the lien. 70 entrepreneurs have come to me and said we have this amazing thing redoing extraordinary we are creating a whole new industry everything is fantastic except in the u.s.
3:20 pm
some of the fcc feels like it has to widows and orphans from making mistakes. i think t fec as all great leads do, the fec should trust people and set them free. where are they trying to control everything that messes with us. liz: friday is the deadline with the fcc has this opt-out or say were and we have all of the names not even all of them there are dozens of spot bitcoin etf applicant among them valkyrie, brock locke, grayscale, bitcoin trust wants to convert to have the trust but they want to convert wisdom tree a whole bunch of other names does one get it over another? >> i don't think so at this point but if they do i think
3:21 pm
they are the ones in the first to apply. let it go, it is time i think we have a great opportunity here it is at least one of the many, many opportunities that have been created by bitcoin and am looking forward to etf's, bitcoin etf being a part of it. liz: you're not the only one a lot of people want to get on this and do it in a way if it's attached to a fidelity or perhaps i shares that makes them feel better let's quickly ask you about all coins, which ones do you use they have been lifted by the belief that there might be an approval on the spot bitcoin etf paving the way for some of them to be more accepted? >> i like the coins that are decentralized. the biggest problem that we got into with ftx was central around
3:22 pm
one guy and you cannot do that. that is a whole point of bitcoin it is decentralized it's not run by the central bank, it's not run by a single government. >> silvanus is more centralized but getting there. those bank is more centralized, polygon is more decentralized, the first of the truly decentralized currency after bitcoin was tased those that was also decentralized. i think the centralized currency are the ones where were at the mercy of the founder and the whole point of decentralized currency it could not naturally inflate it could not be abused by the founding group or by a
3:23 pm
political force. nobody knows that better than argentina and venezuela in nigeria where their currencies are not trusted or trustworthy. this is a big opportunity and i think etf's are nice good start but there is a long way to go we should be able to do air drops and all these other opportunities that are popping up because it's decentralized technology all of these investment opportunities in the ability to invest bitcoin into another company without having to render complicated tax system the idea of taxing and bitcoin

♪. liz: cries for university of pennsylvania board chair scott bach to step down over how poorly he handled the breakout of anti-semitism on campus have coming for weeks. now he is at the hot seat at the new york investment bank where he serves as ceo says charlie gasparino. >> greenhill capital, started by
3:53 pm
the great robert greenhill, you remember him? one of the top deal-makers of all time. scott bach was the his long-time number two. he is now the ceo of greenhill company. something interesting happened late last week. when you issue earnings you issue a press release. greenhill is a public company. it is being bought by mizuho financial. it is being bought. you generally put out a press release. there was no press release. because mr. bach is somewhat controversial people are following his every move. what they found was this, i was sent the 10-q. greenhill lost for the quarter ending september 30th, $30 million. for the nine months of, first nine months of the year they lost like $50 million. they are bleeding internally. now this is fascinate inning this sense. he is clearly at war with mark rowan the ceo of apollo.
3:54 pm
mark rowan is a wharton grad who says scott b-ek as chairman of the university of university of pennsylvania board of trustees did not do enough to quell anti-semitism on the campus, some student riots, rallies that came out in favor of the mutilation of children in, near gaza. that he blamed scott bok and liz mcgill, the president and the board chair, both of them for not doing enough. and rowan is clearly at war bok. liz: getting people to pull their money. >> getting people to pull the money from their endowment. this is the thing, he knows a lot of people on wall street, he knows a lot of people in need of investment banking business. i don't know this first-hand i can't imagine he is giving scott bok and greenhill rave reviews that is where you should go to do your investment banking business. my best is that the bleed that
3:55 pm
greenhill is experiencing will probably get worse. he is literally annoyed i would say to use a different word, like 2/3 of wall street by not taking a stronger stand against anti-semitism on that campus. so not only is he possibly facing leaving the board, being ousted as board chair, who knows what will to on at greenhill. this guy, there is a lot of people that don't like him right now. to point out i wanted to hear his side of the story. i put calls into green i will had. i spoke with somebody who purports to be a pr person, he did not return my calls. i will always take his call. i will always give his side of the story but i am, i would like to know why business fell off that much to begin with. investment banking, it is a tough business right now. is it that bad? also here is something interesting and i would like to ask him this, is he worried about mizuho trying to back out of the deal? liz: well --
3:56 pm
>> you can say -- liz: big corporations don't want controversy. >> they don't like controversy. you're losing money already. that is not a material adverse effect clause. just because you're losing money right now. liz: right. >> he could lose a lot more going forward with mizuho enact, press the button on the mac clause because they're getting maybe damaged goods going forward with him in charge. again i want to hear from mr. bok. i would like to hear his side of story. when he does call me you will get that side of the story. liz: good stuff, charlie. closing bell. we're four 1/2 minutes away. markets are still narrowly mixed. the tomorrow, the crucial read of october cpi coming out. s&p, last couple minutes, unchanged line, up and down all around 110 times. not a lot of movement now. the s&p is down about four points. we should look at the green back. the u.s. dollar hitting 2023
3:57 pm
highs last month. we got it now weaker against the pound, the euro, slightly stronger against the yen ahead of that inflation report. the dollar index, the basket of currencies versus the dollar has declined to 105.60. after investors profit take after recent gains. we have somebody that helps companies manage their currency risk. he is the ceo of independent bod. are we seeing the couple before the global storm here? >> i absolutely feel we are. good to be back on your show, liz. thank you having me. the issue you're seeing this is factual, we've seen most economic policies kind of in line with increasing rate hikes and everybody in the world was doing it. now you're starting to see, and therefore you start getting a calming of the currencies. now what you're seeing is actually fed powell talking about maybe i'm still going to raise. let's see what it tells us.
3:58 pm
the ecb is already saying look we'll have some cuts. when you see policies going whack internationally, low being a five, been as high as 13, another indicator that you're about to secure currencies impacting. what that means for the investors is all of sudden they could have less cash because the volatility will actually hurt them. liz: well, yeah. so it's a very delicate dance. who is managing currency risk this time around the best in your opinion? >> what is the best to do it this time around? make sure the balance sheet -- liz: which companies are managing best? >> i'm sorry. when you look at big names, microsoft does a very good job. amazon does a good job really understanding it and really understand where what their exposure is and where they're going with us. liz: look at nike, this is one day, because nike had a pretty decent year. nike is at the bottom of the s&p. how do they with such a big
3:59 pm
global footprint handle the currency risk right now? >> it all depends on the leadership. in this case the ceo is not been a big fan. he feels long term this washes out. at long term at one point the yen was 400. i'm not sure where that argument goes. investors don't look long term. nike has not been, those are very surprising names, they are, they're willing to take more risk but more volatility in that. liz: especially for somebody like apple, a company like apple which does business in just about every country. so that's a full-time job for about 50 people i would imagine to do currency risk. >> yes. liz: is there a sector you really like right now? >> yeah. actually i've been looking, in general as you know we always like the tech sector but right now we feel the most undervalued tech sector is the biotechs. it is well oversold. if you look as an investor into the indexes of biotechs that has
4:00 pm
been oversold. the rsi has been way overdone n there there are some diamonds in the rough. there are some companies there, veer or zai. in biotech they're also starting to level a.i. which is mass computing and they do that in two areas. one to stein therapeutics and drugs and deliver them faster. we lived that with covid. with a.i. you can go after more than one target at the same time, and with better development deliver them better. [closing bell rings] liz: wolfgang, thank you. we have celsius ceo tomorrow joining us in a exclusive interview after a choppy session. see you tomorrow
