planned, between 17 and $20 a share. that will give twitter a value of about $10 billion. i put together this comparison so you get an idea where twitter is in the tech universe. it's about half the size of tesla, about a tenth the size of facebook and there is the big apple. microsoft and amazon beat expectations reporting profits thursday. let's look to today. courtney reagan is live at cnbc world headquarters. good morning. >> good morning. this morning u.s. markets expected to open slightly lower after stocks closed higher yesterday. today investors have a fresh report on how consumers feel about the economy. the report will give an indication of whether americans sentiment took a hit during the shutdown.
