becky. >> all right, joe, thank you very much.he coronavirus as you know has been causing massive disruption to american life and to american business just in a matter of days here at cnbc we're covering all the aspects of this today, everything from the government's ten figure stimulus package that's been put out there toto extreme actions taken by the federal reserve and all the critical industries that are now facing incredible strain we'll start things right now with eamon javers this morning good morning >> reporter: good morning to you, becky we're seeing from the president and his twitter feed he's got some news from the fda he's going updating us not clear exactly what news that is. i believe that the president here is talking about the 11:30 previously scheduled news conference at the white house which he's been doing each day vice president mike pence leading that task force, but the president has really taken a leading role in it, visibility wise over the past couple of days take a look at this big number from treasury

>> becky, it sort of fits in with what you've been talking about. we're kind of up against two exponentials one of the hardest things for the mind to grasp is the power of an exponential? what happens if it doubles and doubles and doubles. we have a negative exponential that keeps doubling, doubling, doubling very quietly and we still don't know the impact of it right now it's a hurricane that's still actually off shore. the eye hasn't even made landfall yet so i was actually talking to be justasking him what is a simpl way to express the power of this exponential? he said let's put it in terms that the average businessman could understand the virus is like a loan shark who charges 25% interest a day so think of it that we borrowed $1 that was the first day coronavirus appeared patient number one we fiddled around for 40 days. now we own that loan shark $7500. if we wait three more weeks to repay our loan shark, we'll owe him almost $1 million. that's the power of the exponential driving this virus at the same time i would argue there's an example a

>> reporter: good morning, becky. the federal reserve announcing a new program, one it never did in the financial crisis, which is going to set up a new repo facility for foreign central ban banks. if they have an account at the federal reserve, they can have an account here. they can take pressure off the treasury markets if there's a need for dollars over seas, they don't have to sell treasuries, they can go and repo them, that is borrow them, over a short-term period it will ease the strain in the dollar funding markets over seas part of this is like the idea of go set up a branch over there just to do these transactions so that they don't have to come here and put additional pressure in u.s. markets here this will be in effect for six months, new, innovative program for the federal reserve. i want to talk about the outlook. we've been talking about economists using alternative data to figure out what's going on in the economy with the coronavirus. goldman sachs this morning or i guess it was late afternoon yesterd

i'm becky quick coming to you from cnbc headquarters. we are coming to you from separate locations because of coronavirus. we are doing this out of caution. this is what we'll be looking like but not going to change what we do which is bringing you the news you need. a big part is to make sure we continue to do that even if one of our sites is contaminated testing limit down down by 5% as far as they are allowed to trade down before the open the number to watch this morning is down 136 for the s&p. we have touched those lows and bounced off. we are not far off dow futures are down by 4.74%. nasdaq down 4.6% after the opening bell, there are other circuit breakers you with watching. they would be kicking in with trading halting over a period of time down 7% this morning if that were to happen, you'd see a 15-minute halt after trading started. next is if markets dropped by 13%. then the third level is after 20%. that would be a halt of trading for the day. we have not seen these tested since 1997 until the last week of trading that's what

thank you, becky. >>> meantime, u.s. as we mentioned earlier triggering limit down joining us right now on the phone is the sec chairman, jay clayton. chairman, we appreciate you joining us on this morning what are you seeing in the markets? and the functioning of those markets right now. >> good morning, andrew. yeah, look, thank you to you, be becky and joe of doing a really nice job of framing the issues that we're facing. look, we have futures limit down this is something we experienced a couple of times last week. we will be monitoring that we had the circuit breakers. there have been some speculation. contingency plan i think your previous guest. they're the critical >> emphasize that. we ensure our business continuity the health and safety measures >> that's an interesting question and we all agree with it we're there for people to be there. what have you heard back home. a very skilled staff >> the exchanges it's all electronic and the coe. we've been in contact with it. updating it. we've been in contact with th

so -- and one other thing, becky.also have additional tests coming online, very encouraging we believe in the next couple weeks that would make the testing even more simple than it is right now so we do think that the market is actually helping to solve a lot of those challenges right now. >> thank you, marc god speed. god speed to the vice president and the task force and everyone else involved. >> thanks a lot, joe. >> you're welcome. >> thanks. >> appreciate it very much we do wish them as much luck as possible >>> we are under an hour away now to the opening bell on wall street want to get over to cnbc's senior markets commentator mike santoli joins us with some of the tentative signs of traction for stocks what have you got, mike? >> reporter: andrew, everything is tentative when you have a market that's been moving 3, 5, 9% a day you can't necessarily make great declarations about day-to-day movements but i think the story of the last few days has been somewhat lower selling intensity. if you look at a one month

i'm becky quick. joe and andrew are live from times square yesterday's dramatic move marked the end of the historic bull run. it took this time just 16 trading days for the s&p to move to a record high the fastest move ever into a bear market. it got there in rip roaring fashion. we are moving down by 28% with that decline we saw yesterday. u.s. equity futures are bouncing back a little bit. s&p futures indicated up if you are looking at the treasury yield the 10-year looks to be yielding 39% the two-year down at 4.4%. >> the 10-year, if you are trying to behalf full, that is something you point to we are down watching the close for some type of stability, it went down 2,200 or 2,100 even if it rebounded yesterday, you were hoping for a strong close. >> fridays, they've been okay. you would think maybe there would be a selloff the past two fridays thus far not been that way. we'll see if things are different. >> we are talking a lot off camera and on camera all the closings you were talking about. tha

gary is still on the line. >> sorry about losing becky. >> we'll get becky back in just a second i will that i imagine she may have. you lived through the financial crisis you've lived inside of this administration there are now so many different bailout packages on the table. how do you see these things playing out right now? >> so, andrew, look, i think it's important that we put this in perspective we've got a public health crisis, and the policy of washington at this point is to focus on the economy and the economic recovery. so when i think washington is talking about throwing money at the situation, which is the complete right answer and probably the only answer, i think they're looking at -- and this is what they're trying to get right, is they're looking at trying to keep people employed how do we get people employed once this crisis is over how do we keep businesses intact so when the crisis is over, workers will have a job to go back to? if people are talking about different forms of recovery, which brings back some haunting memories to me whether it's y'so v or l, the questio

. >>> with becky quick and joe kernen, becky will be joining us in just a minute good morning to you, joe let's take a quick look at u.s. equity futures at this hour. things are still moving around the dow looks like it would open down 196 points. nasdaq off 17, 18 points s&p 500 off about 13 points. all of this coming after a roller coaster of a week last week and what may be a roller coaster of a week this week. we do have some rebalancing taking place as we get towards the end of the month and maybe new expectations about how long the covid-19 crisis may last given president trump's comments yesterday along with anthony fauci's. we'll talk about that in a little bit take a look at treasury yields this morning let's show you where the ten-year note stands right about now. you're looking at 0.367. the story we probably tonight talk enough about these days, let's show you crude prices because they fell sharply overnight. wti crude now trading at 20.53 if that was the only story around, you'd think that would have a huge impact on markets unto themselves. >>> meantime, an update on the

scott, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, becky.d me, the giant mccormick place convention center which would normally be a behive the house wear show is canceled. that's 56,000 people who won't be here. cardiologist convention later in the month has canceled a couple of smaller conventions. in all, 92,000 people who will not be coming to chicago for an economic hit to the city of about $184 million just in the month of march at the chicago city treasurer's office, they run a small trading room where they manage the $8 billion of operating funds in this crazy market. >> the thing about our current policy, we're talking about if we need to make any changes, what we need to do to make certain we protect taxpayer's dollars and make certain we're able to withstand what's going on in the market today >> reporter: now convention and tourism revenue is a small slice of the city's overall revenue. a bigger concern, the city's four pension funds are just 23% funded the lower interest rates don't help them make up that gap and it means that t

you want notice do this becky?re >> you don't want to miss this because it's an honor to toss this to steve liesman and i don't want to take that from you but i will steve liesman, take it from me hey, steve >> reporter: hey, joe, thanks. so this february durable goods report is a harbinger back to better times when we had problems like the tariffs out there and there was a coronavirus problem in china so that's one of the thing i think will be reflected in the investment numbers there and some other things. now the next set of numbers we'll get will reflect the investment problems and tissues here of the coronavirus being in the united states. so that's one set and now we got another set of issues here andrew has an interview coming up with former fed chairman ben bernan bernanke we thought it would be interesting to take a look back. you remember ben bernanke former fed chair marine through the financial crisis he was ably assisted by the new york fed president became the treasury secretary. who was ably assisted

talk to me this morning, becky. we see futures up.u look for. >> if yesterday was monday meltdown as you were describing it, then let's call today tuesday turnaround. we are seeing futures at this moment hyper. we're taking back about half of the mont tmentous losses in the plunge yesterday. investors are so shellshocked and so beaten up yesterday in the last few sessions that we do see a bit of stabilization. also a bit of a bounce in oil prices which really shook the markets yesterday. but the crux of this, as you've described, the president suggesting that there's going to be further discussions, perhaps even further announcements of support for workers potentially impacted by the coronavirus outbreak. we are incredibly light on details. payroll tax cuts, perhaps support for small businesses. but i can tell you, after flirting with potential bear market territory, down some 20% from the highs, we arelinging c to hope. to sooth some of the big recession fears, because that's what's driving us right now. >> we'll get to the oil price

steve, how are you doing >> reporter: good morning, becky. savaging global economies, g7 finance ministers were scheduled to have begun a call at 8:30 this morning to see what else they could do to respond to the virus. they've already taken some actions. clearly as we debate stimulus in the united states, more is to come here's a quick overview of what the g7 or global central banks have done so far the u.s. leading the pack in part because it had the most to cut by cutting 1.5 percentage points down to a range of zero to 1/4 the bank of canada cut 75 basis points down to 75. ecb and japan, there you go, they had nothing to cut. they're at zero and minus .1 with their main finance rates. how about quantitative easing? fed leading the pack here with going unlimited. we'll talk about what exactly they're doing right now. ecb at $820 billion. u.k. at 230 and they're debating and discussing additional programs in japan and canada, including japan possibly buying additional stocks. now let's get to what the fed has done or will do this week. by o

good to see you, meg >> reporter: good to see you, becky.tart with good news we don't get to talk about it very much. yesterday governor andrew cuomo pointing out that in westchester it appears new case numbers may be slowing he's saying we do know how to slow this and we can slow it and you can see here, the blue line is westchester county those case numbers over the past couple of days have come down. we need more data to tell if something is starting to flatten or end and that can be potentially good news. the yellow line is new orleans we show you these numbers because public health experts are pointing to differences around the country in these outbreaks and a lack of a coordinated national response. you're seeing policies on the county level differing sometimes even when counties are right next to one another. we have a map here of the stay at home orders issued by governors in different states. now these stay at home orders account for about half of americans right now in terms of population according to evercore isi some states have
