Leaderboard. No bubba watson. Its right behind you there it is there it is. Caterpillar, apple moving up, boeing, intel, verizon, theyre all there. Mandy is still down under. Kayla tausche down on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. Great to be with you here on this monday afternoon. We are watching the dow snapping that sevenday losing streak. Also seeing its first 200pluspoint gain since the middle of july. Bob pisani is here with me on the floor to look a little bit deeper into what exactly is pushing the markets higher. Is it all industrials today . No, it is pretty broad rally. 41 advancing to deshriclining stocks. Seven days down in the dow industrials. That doesnt happen very often. Were due for a bounce. Theres hopes for stimulus in china for all the wrong reasons. Look what happened to china today, both shenzhen and shanghai up 4 to 5 . Economic data was very disappointing overall here. Ppi and trade numbers were terrible. But shenzhen and hang shy both rallied, hong kong did not because hong kong moves on the fundamentals. Hopes for stimulus really moved the markets there. Thats helping our markets if you look at the sectors today. Beatenup sectors, ones most influenced by global slowdown, concern with china, energy, materials and industrials are the ones rallying the most. Also some nice moves up in technologies with some of the big four names also moving as well. Oversold bounces in etfs. Xop, dramatically oversold. Thats bouncing. Steel, dramatically oversold. Thats bouncing. Heavy volume. Semiconductors oversold. Bouncing. Brazil remember brazil . Even thats bouncing after one of the worst starts to the year anyones seen in emerging markets. See what i mean . Everybodys trend following, buying stuff thats been sold just about down to the bone. We also have a little m a activity. Precision castparts is really helping companies in the metal space. Theyre very big selling into aerospace. Companies that have metals that sell to the Aerospace Business like allegheny, carpenter, haynes international. All up today. A little bit of spice to the market. Buffett says hes satiated for now but that doesnt stop people from bidding up some of the other competitors. Precision castparts are the big kahuna in that metals into aerospace. Bob pisani, more from you later. Technology up 1. 5 . We are seeing stocks rebound at the nasdaq as well. Thats where we find bertha coombs. Apples big bounce today is a big factor in the nasdaq moving higher. Apple contributing to about onethird of the nasdaq 100 gains, up for a second session. It is moderately strong volume, not as strong as we saw in some of the selloffs last week. Apple still below its 200day moving average but todays move does carry over to some of those apple suppliers that have suffered Collateral Damage like skyworks giving a boost to the chip sector which is now positive for the month with todays move after two straight months of losses. Nvidia also at a fresh 52week high today. Among the losers are some big consumer names. J. D. Com is leading the way south after alibabas new deal seen pressuring j. D. S Electronics sales. Whole foods still restructuring, today hits a new low. It will take a while for whole foods to really engender some optimism, both among its clientele and investors. Bertha coombs from the nasdaq. The euro dollar right now, Something Different happening here. The euro getting stronger. Very close to 1. 10. Actually at 1. 10. A little above it. If you look at the dollar index which is the dollar against a bunch of other currencies, that would be a bunch. Thats a technical financial term. You can see that it is falling, the dollar that is. As well, it had hit a nearly fourmonth high on friday. You see the index down just a little bit. Another angle on the recent slide in the markets and todays bounceback would be the dow transports. Dominic chu has been following them for weeks now and watching it for us today. What did you find . We look at these as an indicator for Overall Health ef the market. A year to date chart with the orange line being the dow transportation stocks and the white line being the dow industrials. Weve seen this slowing down of momentum. We were waiting to see if this bounce in transportation stocks recently would translate into an overall bounce for the industry. Maybe we are seeing that, nice gains today. But remember, were very much still in this down trend if you will. The chart for the dow transportation stocks over the past month, you can see it here transportation stocks up 2 but its been a bit of a roller coaster ride as investors and traders try to figure out a direction. This index is very much in a nomans land right now, at least on a short. Term basis. It still sits below its average price for the laugh 200 days but right around its average price for the last 50. Its technical jargon. Were trying to figure out if this is break out higher. Stocks kind of pushing and pulling this market here, this is a tale of land and sea. Right . Or air and sea. In this case here. The two worst performing stocks in the dow transportation index so far on a onemonth basis are kirby and matson. Both these guys do maritime shipping. Barges, tankers. That kind of thing. Maritime ocean freight. Alaska airlines and southwest are the two that have kind of helped prop things higher on a onemonth basis as well. If you look at this chart overall, what youre looking for is a sign here whether or not this thing is going to break out or not. We have seen this move here. Still very much in a down trend. Whether it can get higher here may dictate some sentiment as to whether or not we see some more perhaps gains in the overall market. Thats why some traders are watching the transportation stocks a little bit more closely, especially at this level. Were at possibly a pivot point or a change in the overall market. Kayla, over to you. Were going to talk a little bit more about the markets here with kenny polcari. Gentlemen, gordon, we just heard about the pivot point that the dow transports are at right now. What are you watching within that space . It is not just the transports. Its tech nollie, a lot of different sectors that you have to focus on. The interesting thing about the market today, particularly the traders on the floor, last week a lot of guys were hoping, look, lets watch them out, see this thing sell off, lets find a base, find a let level, lets turn it around. It took all last week. Today they come in there, they take them. Question is will we carry them through the rest of the week. Thats what traders are focusing on today. Ken in i, is this the turnaround for the market. We had seven down days last week. At some point it needed to find a bounce. There are individual names and you pointed out whether theyre industrial names, material names, energy names, names that have really gotten clocked that all of a sudden people are starting to do some bottom fishing, value plays. The second half of the year is going to be better i think. I think that tends to be the people think the second half of the year is going to be better. Therefore, theyre preparing. I think this is. I like the market right here. I dont think were going to have this crash. I think it is going to trade in a range for a little bit longer, and then it is going to move higher as we move into the second half of the year. Gordon, is it as kenny says . I tend not to disagree with you because youre usually right but is it a second of ha volitionist or is it a, whew earnings are behind us and things are not get as ugly as we saw the last couple of weeks. Earnings are done. Its august, vacation. You sort of have to be patient. Wait for things to come to you. Thats what were seeing. I think as you get towards the end of the year youll start to see more motion. People taking bigger commitment into some of their positions. I would think that we will trend to the upside. So kennys right, right . Listen, last two weeks of august dont pay too much attention because it is Vacation Time not only in europe but here. Volumes tends to be lower. Moves tend to be more exaggerated. Just be careful. Once you come into september and everyones back i think is when you see the push. Volumes, are they pretty good considering it is the middle of august . Were low, right . Were in the low end of the volume right now. As we get into the end of this week and next week, expect them just to kind of dribble off a little bit even more. Were still watching sentiment, gordon, kenny the vix is also down today which i think is an important thing to note. Again, it sort of speaks to the sluggishness of the market at this present time. Well keep our eye on that as well. Thank you. Shares sf Precision Castparts soaring nearly 20 today. The Company Makes parts for aircraft. Berkshire hathaway bought that company for 32 billion. He called in to squawk box this morning and said it is one of the most expensive deals hes ever done on a price to earnings basis and revealed his plans for the near future. Well probably be buying a few small things in the next six months. Were in negotiations on a couple. But in terms of a deal of similar size, it pretty much senses out what we will probably do on this one is well probably borrow about 10 billion and use 23 billion of our cash, on that order. Well be left with over 40 billion of cash whether we get all through. Buffetts comments on ibm also sending that stock higher today, though it is basically flat for the year. Well have more on that in the next hour of power lunch. And you can find more on powerlunch. Cnbc. Com. A news alert for now. This should hit home to anyone who flies. Scary stuff. Phil lebeau is in chicago with this story. Within the last halfhour the Associated Press is out with a report. They have gotten a copy of a 2011 study that they say was commissioned by the f p. Aa and by study people running the studies at nasa basically looking at air Traffic Control fatigue in the 2011 study. They surveyed 3,268 controllers. They say that the average sleep per day for those controllers is 5. 8 hours. But for some on certain shifts, it was just 3. 25 hours. Heres the scary conclusion in this report, according to the Associated Press. 1 in 5 controllers committed what they call significant errors during their shift. Over half of the controllers blamed those errors on fatigue. We have reached out to the faa for a comment on this report. We have not heard anything. But again, thats scary stuff, guys, in terms of what was reported in this survey in 2011 of air Traffic Controllers. Have those errors led to any inair or on the ground incidents that we know of . Not according to the report by the faa. There were some that they talk about that might have been some questionable circumstances. But no reports of accidents that were directly tied to reports of fatigue. Phil, thank you very much. Phil lebeau reporting. They are cleaning up over in taiwan today after a major typhoon hit the island. Many. Roads still look like this, like rivers with cars just washed off to the side. Look at the damage there. Strong winds and heavy rains pounding taipei city. Media there report six people were killed and nearly 200 injured. Severe storms though not that severe are threatening the eastern u. S. Today. Chris warren of the Weather Channel has more. Reporter it eventually is going to be very stormy for some of the big cities in the northeast. Thats what were keeping an eye on here. Look at the setup first, how things are going to play out. This is whats going on. We had a dip in the jet stream, you have the moisture here. The ingredients are coming together for the threat for some strong storms for the rest of day for parts of the northeast. But it is the big cities tomorrow that we are watching for some of the stronger storms to move through. This does go from d. C. , philadelphia, new york, not quite to boston but anywhere in the orange or the red, thunderstorms will be possibly but it is here in the red where theres the greatest chance for some of the strongest storms which does include the possibility for some damaging winds. Now for washington, d. C. This is how it is going to play out. Later on tonight youre going to have a chance for some thunderstorms. Then by morning still looking at that hit and miss storms. Then were going to watch more of those storms moving through against some of the other big cities in the northeast. Thank you very much. Social security may not be the sexyist issue, but the older i get, the is exisexier becomes. Where do the candidates to be the next president of the United States stand on this issue . We will break it down for you and we will continue to watch this big bounceback rally in stocks as the dow is moving up by 232 points. This is cnbc, first in business worldwi worldwide. Hi my name is tom. Im raph. My name is anne. Im one of the real live attorneys you can talk to through legalzoom. Dont let unanswered legal questions hold you up, because were here, were here, and weve got your back. Legalzoom. Legal help is here. Welcome back to power lunch. Texas instruments shares are coming off their best level so far today, up by nearly 4 . The Electronics Component company and Semiconductor Maker was upgraded to outperform from neutral at mcquarry. The firm cites valuation and the complete the semiconductor cycle is bottoming out. Mcquarry under its price target for the shares to 60 from a prior 55. Back over to you, kayla. Txm not the only stock we are watching here on power lunch. Shares of tesla also down for the Third Straight day. That stock has loss more than 10 of its value over just that time. The latest revelation being the companys losing more than 4,000 on every car sold. Tesla stock down by about pr. 5 . Astrazeneca announcing a deal with inonivo. The stock up 25 . Azn up just over 1 . Finally, sysco, the food company, earnings higher than a year ago. They say sales were hurnt t by currency exchange. That stock up 2 . What company this quarter didnt have some Foreign Exchange issues . Thats thats this seasons weather problems, the currency issues. Weve heard a lot from the president ial candidates. Maybe more than we should from those candidates on some issues. But where do they stand on Social Security . It is one of the key issues for millions of americans and john harwood is here to explain. Two different trends affecting Social Security are putting it at the center of the campaign debate. One is the Massive Retirement of the baby boom generation which is placing more and more pressure on the Social Security fund. The second is the diminishment stagnation of wages, the elimination of so many Pension Plans that leaves more and more workers or retirees dependent on Social Security. If you care more about debt, you want to cut benefits and find some way to make the program sol vanit so solvent. We saw that last thursday night. Let me tell you exactly what we would do on Social Security. Yes, wed raise the retirement age two years and phase it in 25 years. Wed raise it one month a year for 25 years. Secondly, means test Social Security for those who are making over 200,000 a year in retirement income. If we dont deal with this problem, it will bankrupt our country or lead to massive tax increases. Neither one that we want in this country. 60 million americans are on Social Security. 60 million. Onethird of those people depend on 90 of their income from Social Security. Its always that the government figures that they can do this off the backs of people, many of whom are poor and depend on that money. I just think it is fundamentally lying to the people and stealing from them and we shouldnt be doing it. As that debate was going on, bernie sanders, the socialist running for the democratic nomination tweeted out, all you have to do is raise the cap Social Security taxes and you can make the program solvent for decades. Bernie sanders wants to go beyond that for the existing program. He also wants to raise those minimum benefits for people at the lowest end. Youve got some republican for that, too. Paul ryan, the conservative chairman of the house ways and means committee, hes been interested in that same idea. So there is a lot of ferment around this program as we get toward 2016. We can appreciate them drilling down a little bit deeper on specific policy issues, less rhetoric. I think we can all agree thats a good thing. John harwood, we appreciate you drilling into that for us today as well. Gold getting back above 1,100 an ounce today. Well check on that. As we head into the close for metals. And also much more on this big market rally. Were cnbc first in business worldwide. Were back in a minute. Defiance is in our bones. New citracal pearls. Delicious berries and cream. Soft, chewable, calcium plus vitamin d. Only from citracal. 40 of the streetlights in detroit, at one point, did not work. You had some blocks and you had major thoroughfares and corridors that were just totally pitch black. Those things had to change. We wanted to restore our lighting system in the city. You can have the greatest dreams in the world, but unless you can finance those dreams, it doesnt happen. At the time that the bankruptcy filing was done, the Public Lighting Authority had a hard time of finding a bank. Citi did not run away from the table like some other bankers did. Citi had the strength to help us go to the credit markets and raise the money. Its a brighter day in detroit. People can see better when theyre out doing their tasks, young people are moving back in town, the kids are feeling safer while they walk to school. And folks are making investments and the community is moving forward. 40 of the lights were out, but theyre not out for long. Theyre coming back. No sixth graders ever sat with but your jansport backpack is permission to park it wherever you please. Hey. Thats that new gear feeling. This week, filler paper and folders just one cent. Office depot officemax. Gear up for school. Gear up for great. Sharps of twitter are bouncing back today along with the rest of the market. On friday the stock sank to lows it hadnt seen since the ipo. Now some executive including jack dorsey are buying stock, and that is giving shares a boost. Were also watching shares of shake shack. That one up more than 200 since its ipo earlier this year. Can it report growth to live up to that . Thats the question. Well have the results after the closing bell. We have the close in the Metals Market right now. Gold is up. Its up by just about 10. 30 an ounce. It is still hovering above that 1,100 level. It had been falling for seven straight weeks, but today touched its highest level since june. Silver, copper, palladium, platinum, lets take a look at where the rest of the metal complex is closing. Were seeing green arrows across the board. Silver up by 3 . Copper up nearly 3 . Platinum up 2. 5 . Palladium up by 1. 7 . The bond market, mr. Santelli must be away. That means you are stuck with me. We focus on the 10year note, the yield at 2. 23 . The prices are lower, the yields up a bit today. A lot of red on the price action across the curve. All the way from the 2s to the 30s. And that is your abbreviated bond report. Where is santelli when we really, really need him . Futures of ceos of america currently being trained at Harvard Business schools. What are they teaching these kids . Well talk with one of the schools deens. Plus, apple bouncing back today. The stock which has been pummeled in recent weeks. Overall markets moving higher as well. You see that onemonth move in apple. But today up almost 3. 5 . Were all over all these stories when power lunch returns. No students ever been the king of the campus on day one. But youre armed with a roomy new jansport backpack, a powerful new dell 2in1 laptop, and durable new stellar notebooks, so youre walking the halls with varsity level swagger. Thats what we call that new gear feeling. You left this on the bus. Get it at the place with the experts to get you the right gear. Office depot officemax. Gear up for school. Gear up for great. Ive got two reasons to take thats why i take meta. Meta is clinically proven to help lower cholesterol. Try meta today. And for a tasty heart healthy snack, try a meta health bar. Welcome back to power lunch. The s p is right up there near the best levels so far today. Materials as a sector is competing with energy as the Top Performing one in the s p 500. Among the leaders in that sector so far today are names like freeport mcmoran, alcoa, you will up 3 or more. At least some green on board for one sector thats been fairly beaten up a little bit over the past few weeks. Green across the board for the s p sectors. Nine sectors out of ten are in the green today. Lets check the Broader Market. Dow up which 227 points. Nasdaq up 58 points. S p up by 25 points. Bob pisani joins me here again on the floor of the nyse. We talked earlier about the breadth of the market. 42 advancing to declining stocks. Most importantly it hasnt fallen down yet. Look at the s p 500. Professional traders come in and they say, okay, were buying oversold markets today. Today were buying energy. But if at 11 00 it starts looking weaker, theyll sell it very quickly but that hasnt happened today. Its been strong throughout the day. This is a good example. People say what do you mean by oversold . This is what i mean. These stocks have had the stuffing knocked out of them this quarter. Caterpillar, chevron, dupont, even intel, united tech, theyre terrible performers. Theyre the market leaders today. This is what i mean. There is such a thing as an oversold rally. Chevrons down double digits. Dupont, united technology, caterpillar, even intels down 3 . Those are terrible performers, those are the market leaders today. Thats what an oversold rally looks like. Of course you have the china hopes for stimulus even though the Economic News was bad. Thats whats moving it. Look at the other side, thats underperforming . Whats not doing so great today . Remember the nasdaq internet names . They were just on fire a week or so ago. Theyre underperforming the market. Biotech was on fire. Its underperforming the market. Consumer staples, defensive names were doing very well in july and august. Its underperforming the market. My point here is, you can see exactly what everybodys doing. Theyre staying with the beaten up names today. And theyre sort of lightening up on the big winners. One thing i dont like, one thing i dont see, is volume. Indont see aggressive buying in oil names. I dont see aggressive buying in some of the beatenup Big Industrial names. I see rallies but thats more like theres nobody out there aggressively selling the names or aggressively trying to buy them. I dont see a lot of enthusiasm. I just see oversold is there more than just a oneday thats what i want to see. You think these stocks have been beaten up so badly, people come in and try to buy them on the idea they are bargains. If there was big volume i might be more tenthusiastic. To me this means people still dont think there is going to be a sustainable bounce. At least a little lift for today. Bob pisani, thanks so much. Lets take a closer look at the nasdaq 100. As you see, more than 4 out of 5 of the hundred stocks in the nasdaq 100 are higher today as you might well expect. Breadth is very good, the size of the moves very good. Applied materials, texas instruments, nvidia, Network Appliance and apple obviously among the leaders on this day. Intel. Viacom is up there as well. Warren Buffetts Berkshire hathaway paying 3 billion for Precision Castparts. The company wasnt necessarily having a great year until today. Stock up nearly 20 today. If you take out today, youll see a drop for the year of about 4 . Jamie cox of harris financial owns the stock. Jamie, we were together on friday evening on nightly business report, and you named this company as 1 of the 3 stocks you love right here. Youve been talking to buffett. Come on tell us youve been talking to buffett, vnts yo havent you . No, unfortunately, tyler, he doesnt consult me when he makes his buying decisions. I take no credit for that. I just liked the company. The fact that it was in aerospace. Every single jet engine thats being manufactured today uses parts by Precision Castparts. The dreamliner. 13 of their revenue comes from general electric. I think this company has enormous opportunity. Im sad than buffett took out a lot of the profit for the rest of us who like to hold this stock. You made this a bet on the growth, the expansion of the airliner business. Were you looking at this stock through a buffettlike prism . In other words, that you saw an undervalued company, a diamond in the rough . I dont know if i necessarily would use buffetts name in regard to that. Just sort of the way we look at things, we wouldnt really buy a share of a Company Unless we were willing to own the whole thing. The problem is i dont have the capital to buy the whole company. Warren buffett does. Thats the position hes in and makes tremendous Investment Opportunity for him. But i did think a lot of people were looking at precision and thinking it was an energy type name and selling it now for all the wrong reasons. I think that if you look at the economics of airline engines, theres one fuselage for every two to in some cases four engines. I like the economics there. If you looked over the weekend, you take a look at the way an engine is manufactured. Over the weekend there was a Delta Air Lines flight that went through a hailstorm. The nose cone was really beaten up but the engines were able to sustain those hail balls going through it. So this is a really important piece of an air frame and i think that thats why i like the company. I would describe the engines as a very important piece. I think that we can agree on that, jamie. And the idea, by the way, that you just said, you like to buy companies where you would theoretically be comfortable owning the whole thing. Thats really a page from buffetts book. Let me turn to the next page here and let you describe another company thats either in your portfolio or on your watch list, that sort of meets those standards of being something that maybe the market doesnt appreciate the way you do, that you would be comfortable owning all of it if you could. Well, we talked on friday night about rockwell. I love the way Rockwell Automation has been going through restructuring over the past couple of years. Theyve really gotten big in the stop start battery market. Hybrid vehicles have been using these batteries for a number of years. A couple of gas powered cars are starting to use them for fuel efficiency standards and i think that is a place where it has the broad application just like amp engines where you can see vehicles outfitted with these stop start batteries at production scale. I think rockwell is also a good place that people could take a look at. That sort of has the same characteristics as precision in my view. Jamie, thank you very much. Nice call on Precision Castparts. Final only we could all pick stocks like that, ty. Great stuff. Meanwhile, the Broader Market is still rallying. Lets bring in the chief Investment Officer at oppenheimer funds. Christian, great to have you. We have earnings largely behind us. We have the jobs number behind us. We have janet yellen not making an appearance at jackson hole later this month. Is volatility dormant for the time being . No, not at all. I think we are still dealing with two very important issues china and the you slodown in china, and the fed tightening at some point in the not too distant future. Well have to slog through all of this. Today is a good day but last week was terrible and well have quite a few of these types of weeks in the future as well. How do you read the china market . On one hand you have data that are weak today but you have the market in china rallying because of these hopes for further stimulus from the chinese government. Shouldnt we here be focused more on the data if that has more implications for the companies that we follow that are operating there . But data is what it is today. Stimulus is what data could be tomorrow. I think if they put in a lot of stimulus, there is a case to be made that the chinese economy actually grows a bit faster than what people are expecting. And as a result, the demand for commodities and materials may improve significantly and the outlook for Global Growth changes dramatically as well. I think theres good reason to be hopeful if there is a lot of stimulus coming through. We saw that in the u. S. In 20092010. We saw that in europe in 201220132014. How do you play that if you are an investor here . Whats the likelihood that investors who have exposure to revenue in china say thats whats hurting their revenues . Absolutely. I think well hear a lot of that but a lot of it is really about buying assets at good prices. When you see a significant correction in large cap names like chevron and you have this opportunity to buy because china was bad and commodities were going to fall apart, i think finding those opportunities for longterm investors and capitalizing on those opportunities is what will make or break your portfolio. Names like wynn resorts, broadcom, qualcomm, samsung. Companies that have huge revenue to china. Do you stay away . Again i think it is question of company by company what the valuations are. There are companies that offer really good value for longterm investors and finding those makes sense. It is really more finding a good asset at a really good price. You like technology. The knock on technology has been the whole sector is so concentrated in amazon, netflix, google, apple. How do you play outside of those . I think you can approach it two ways. One, it is probably the growthest sector of them all in biotechnology in a world where you have growth thats not coming about as fast as you like, people are willing to pay a premium for that. In addition, there are really oldline Technology Companies that will offer you decent amount of value or businesses are very stable or cash flows are relatively stable and you get really good, cheap assets. Like what . Like hp, like ibm. There are quite a few of these types of companies. You and Warren Buffett both like ibm today. Theyre good companies. The jurys still out on that one. At least the turnaround. Go to powepowerlunch. Cnbc. Com now for more. The biotech etf crawling back after falling more than 4 at the end of last week. Is now a time to buy biotechs . Can interim twitter Ceo Jack Dorsey and a big new partnership turn the stock around for good . Dont go away, power lunch returns in two minutes. But yos permission to park it wherever you please. Hey. Thats that new gear feeling. This week, filler paper and folders just one cent. Office depot officemax. Gear up for school. Gear up for great. Dentist appointment when my teeth are ready . Can it tell the doctor how long you have to wear this thing . Can it tell the Flight Attendant to please not wake me this time . The answer is yes, it can. So, the question your customers are really asking is, can your business deliver . Welcome back to power lunch. Dean foods picking up gains but still down about 5 . The largest u. S. Milk processor reporting a larger than expected drop in Second Quarter sales. Those sales were hurt by lower volumes as the company kept prices high despite a drop in raw milk cost. That stock still down by 88 cents. Target announcing it will remove genderbased labeling in several departments, including toys, bedding and entertainment. The company says the decision was based on customer feedback. Of course some of that which went viral. Meanwhile, adobe is the latest company to adjust its parental leave policy. The softwaremaker saying it will offer time off to 26 weeks from 16. That appears to be a good move for the stock, up 1. 33 . Each day this week on power lunch well talk to some top Business Schools. We kick it off with maybe the top of the top Harvard Business School Counts u. S. President s, dozens of fortune 500 ceos as alums. Felix observe eoverhoelzer is tf the Business School. Where are harvards graduates going to work after they leave, how is that different from say five or ten years ago, and do the brand name employers have the same sway as they used to . Thank you for having me. This is a very interesting question, tyler. In fact, we see quite a dramatic difference. You know that the millennial generation is often described as being selfcentered, even narcissistic sometimes. I find this to be a very poor deskrigs of our students. Our students are very eager to get out, to create value, to shake things up and we see this in market differences in the patterns of employment post graduation. If we had looked at the names of the companies that our graduates would join one, two generations ago, these would all be brand names. Today theres huge diversification. Students are looking for opportunities at smaller companies, often unknown companies, also. And the idea is that what they seek is that they take on responsibility, far greater responsibility, earlier in their career. They want basically to skip sort of the intermediate steps and have a lot of responsibility earlier. Are they more relatively interested in microbusinesses, entrepreneurship, than they would have been ten years ago, and relatively less interested in finance or consulting . If you look at the overall patterns of employment, they actually have not shifted that much. It is roughly about one quarter of our class that goes into consulting. About 30 of our students ends up in financial services. It is more within these sectors, the kinds of companies that can provide interesting job market opportunities, that can provide opportunities for leadership, opportunities for taking on responsibility. They have become much more attractive over time. Among other things, that tends to benefit companies with relatively shallow hierarchies, companies that are often smaller in size also. What are the musthave courses or subjects that you want your graduates to have had by the time they exit . We have more than 80 electives in the second year of the mba program. Of course, all of these are exceedingly important. We only have one year though. So i think what it boils down to is choosing the kinds of courses that further your career over the long period over longer periods of time. We often say that we educate our students not so much for the first five, ten years after they graduate, we educate them for the last five, ten years, when theyre really in senior positions, when they take on significant leadership roles. Thats what many of our graduates are looking for as part of their education here at Harvard Business school. I mentioned you mentioned in one of your discussions with one of our producers here that one of the interesting case studies that either you have developed was buzzfeed, a disrupter in the media space with which we here at cnbc are most quite highly familiar. Py wonder if there are other case studies that youve got percolating in the back of your mind that youd go, boy, thats one i would love to work up. Might it be twitter . Might it be what . Is there one that youve got your eye on for the future . So if you look at the companies that we cover, you would be very hard pressed to find interesting ventures, interesting organizations that we do not cover already. So our students, because were such important producers of case studies, our students greatly benefit from the availability of case studies on almost any company that is out there. When i watch your program, i there are very few instances where i hear names where i cannot think of a case study that is at least related. But while we remain committed to case studies as an educational institution, we think case studies are the single most important way to learn how to think about business. We have now changed the curriculum in a quite significant fashion to include many more experiential studies. Making Business Decisions are two very different things. Now we have augmented the curriculum. There is no graduate at Harvard Business school right now who has not had an opportunity to work in a team and start a microbusiness. A real business that is selling products, its selling services. Theres no graduate at Harvard Business school who hasnt had an opportunity to work in an emerging market context on an important innovation challenge. Interesting. Fascinating. So the shift in the curriculum that goes along with the interests and passions of the millennial generation have a little bit of course to do with what kinds of companies do we cover, what kinds of case studies do we run. But more importantly we want our students to hint the ground running and that i think in an important way can be accomplished with real Life Experiences as part of a Business School curriculum.

And a celebrity ceo pulling one of the most dangerous stunts youve seen in a lifetime. Very cool or just dump . You decide. The unbelievable picture ahead. Thanks so much, brian. Take two interactive set to report earnings after the bell today. The stock is up 11 in just the last month, though today its taking a breather, down by. 5 . Lets bring in eric hanler and Michael Baxter to debate this stock ahead of earnings. Michael, you are the bear in this conversation. Im just wondering why you think that take two, which has had such a spectacularly successful run with grand theft auto, cant repeat that . Im hardly a bear. I hope, kayla, as you know, i really think the stock should be rated sell. I know how to put sell on it and i have several of them. They are a good company, great assets. I think the management does a phenomenal job managing the company. I just dont think that the management does a very good job with investors. So we have no information about half of the companys business. Guys who make grand theft auto, rock star games, are just shutins. They dont talk, they dont go to e3. Theres no press releases. I think the last time we heard about a game from rock star was 2011 when this he told us about grand theft auto 5. It came out in 13 and theyve been milking it phenomenally well for the last couple years. We dont know whats coming next. We dont know whats coming next year. Possibly nothing. The studio has 900 people. They do one game a year. I think analysts are giving them way too much credit that their next gram is going to be their other big franchise. I think the next big game is midnight club. Theres still a ways to go before that happens. Your price target is 26. Eric, your price target on take two is 40. Im wondering what you see coming up this quarter that leads you to believe the stock has another 9 to run given how much its already raised this year . 25 in just the last three months. Look, it is not necessarily about one quarter. What i think michael is missing here is you have a company thats got just about 10 per share of cash. It is 30 of the companys market cap. Theyve done a great job. Turning this business around, consistently profitable now. Margins are rising. The Digital Business is growing. And they still continue, yes, to milk grand theft auto. We think that will be a big part of what they report in the First Quarter this year and i think theres good up side to estimates. In a trough year, a trough year for a company used to mean a lot of losses. Now a trough year could be upwards of 1 a share of ets and margins this year should be around 11 . Margins, a cycle ago, was the peak margin. Peak margins now are double that. So i think the companys made tremendous strides over the last eight years. And yes, theres sometimes visibility is lacking. But this is a company with a deep portfolio of assets and a big pile of cash. We appreciate your views this afternoon. Well see which way that stock goes whether it reports after the bell. Eric, michael, thanks so much. Thanks for having me. Kayla, thank you for joining me on this first hour of power. The rally continues and Brian Sullivan is here to take us forward. Brian . Thank you very much. 2 00 on wall street, 11 00 a. M. In bakersfield, california. The dow is surging up 240 points as Warren Buffett spends nearly 40 billion. Im Brian Sullivan. Melissa lee joining us from the nasdaq. Much to do on a busy monday, including an amazing and some say foolish thing that one celebrity ceo just did. But we have got to start with stocks to start the week. Coming in to today, the dow was down seven days in a row. But that turned around in a big way today. Bob pisani is at the New York Stock Exchange. What are the one, maybe two biggest drivers of todays big rally . Exactly the right question. Oversold, bounce and china. The important thing is we have had seven down days in the dow and sectors including industrials and materials, some of the other some Technology Stocks as well, all have been beaten up. It is time for a little bit of a bounce. On top of that, hopes for stimulus in china despite very poor economic numbers, we saw the Chinese Market 5 overnight. The s p 500, we started strong and we stayed strong. We are at the highs of the day. Thats very important because theres been no broad attempt to sell off the market. What i dont see is strong volume but thats a petty thing to argue about when you have a rally this strong and broad. All the beatenup stocks, perform erps fers for the quart the ones that are up today. Apple, caterpillar, intel, boeing and shechevron. The names after apple have all been terrible on the quarter. Exchange traded funds have been beaten up. Xop, xls, semiconductors, the sms on the bottom, those are your market leaders. On top of that even emerging markets are rallying. Everybody talks about china but weve been emphasizing recently brazil. A new low in brazil just recently but it is up 3 . Not saying this will rally any time big time, but even brazil is rallying today. Finally, sectors not participating so much, modest rise in Interest Rates. You get those Interest Rate sensitive stocks like utilities and the reits not doing too much but overall, brian, 41 advancing to declining stocks and no sign that thats deteriorating in the middle of the day. Nobody wants to throw a bucket of water on a nice rally. But i will. Brazil is endemic of my concern about the markets. The best performing stocks in the s p 500 outside of Precision Castparts which has gotten bought, genworth financial, freeport mcmoran, Diamond Offshore and joy global. The best performer of those four is down 35 year to date. My concern is the stocks that are leading this rally are heavily shorted, low quality names. Youre right. Theyre all particularly the energy names like Diamond Offshore, all heavily shorted. Id be more comfortable saying this is nothing but a Short Covering rally. If i saw much bigger volume. But were seeing roughly average volume. In a real Short Covering valley you get people coming in covering. I agree theyre heavily shorted names. I think weve got a mod yes, sir oversold bounce but i dont think this is the start of anything. If i believed it was, i would have seen if everybody believed it was, we would have seen much more notable volume. Thats the only thing thats holding me back right now. Bob pisani, thank you very much. This morning on squawk box, becky quick got Warren Buffett on the phone to talk about his 37 billion deal to buying oregonbased Precision Castparts. He also talked about why he is so bullish on ibm. Take a listen. I love it when it goes down. It means the company buys stock cheaper and it meansfy want to buy more talk, you can look at our 13f, it means i get to buy cheaper. On the cnbc news line, kim f forrest. An ibm shareholder. It sure sounded like Warren Buffett was buying more stock in ibm last quarter saying just wait until our s. E. C. Filing rolls out. You obviously agree with that but ibms been a difficult company for a few years, why is it a good investment . Oh. Well, im not going to go if warren thinks its good, i think its good. But thats also not a bad bet, right . Maybe he cited you. Pardon . If kim forrest is buying, im buying. He might have said that. Thats right. He just didnt know it. No. We continue to hold it for a couple reasons. It has the largest base of very heavyduty data users. Right . One of the two biggest drivers in tech right now, first big data, second is the cloud. If you look at their product called watson, it is a poster child for both of these things can what can be done in the cloud, with big data. I think that is exciting to a lot of corporations around the world and i think theyre going to come to ibm and have that sort of thing done for them. Because were still in early innings for both of those things, big data and the cloud. Very early innings, kim. At the same time all these exciting Growth Initiatives that you cited are very small contributors to the revenue. Ibm has seen 13 straight quarters of revenue decline hand a stock thats been falling since 2013. How long are you willing to say to your investors, yeah, were in this stock thats been declining for the past two years and with Growth Initiatives that are small contributors to the bottom line . Sure. Well, i have two answers for that. I was a software engineer. Heres the thing. Most of the trends that get people into the door are icing on the cake. The cake has to do with selling them about how to get that data in and out of the system and how to manipulate data. Those are things that the company does really well and they make a lot of money on that. So that would be things like main frame, storage systems, then software and services. Even though watson is very small to them, it is at least enough to get people in a conversation and then buy the rest of the products that are necessary to make that idea get off the ground. And the second thing is, ibm has had a lot of challenges and we are patient investors. Were three to fiveyear, at a minimum, holders. That doesnt mean we just set it and forget it. Were watching this company and all the companies in our portfolio but were not trading stocks, were buying companies that should return shareholder value. Thats why were in that. Kim, there is the more bullish view on ibm. Kim forrest of fort pitt capital, thank you. Now for the other side on ibm, Scott Kessler has a hold rating on ibm. Scott, what are you seeing when you look at this company, to melissas point, the stocks down, revenue is 104 billion a couple years ago. It is 90 billion now. They have shed some assets, granted. What do you think Warren Buffetts looking at that makes him think this is a good buy . Ive heard Warren Buffett on your air multiple times talk about ibm. I thought his comments this morning were interesting indicating that he liked when the stock went down because it provided the company and him with an opportunity to buy at lower prices. But of course that presupposes that at some point the stock price is actually going to increase. And to be frank, although our 12month target price is notably higher than where were at now, we see ibm as a market performer. You referenced the decline in revenues. Id also point to the fact that if you look since the end of 2010, cash in investments has declined by onethird, yet longterm debt has increased by 50 . Ibm is doing a lot of things right, but unfortunately theyre captive to the massive shift in what your prior guest was talking about, which is to the cloud and their legacy products and Services Just dont play. Seems to me with all this stuff and the complexities of the company, theres just one simple question that needs to be answered. Which is, is ibm going to be able to lead in all these markets . Win in cloud, win in data, win in whatever . My take on that is somewhat. I agree watson is a very exciting kind of opportunity for ibm, but it is really de minimis when you think about how big the behemoth is in new york. Basically the way we think about it at this point is ibm, look, it has that brand, it has a lot of customers. As Warren Buffett has said to you guys, it has a pretty substantial base of recurring revenues. Its just that that base seems to be shrinking and their levers to kind of increase and accelerate growth to a large extent seem to be to us nonexistent. Look elsewhere, thats our opinion and the stock price over the last couple of years bears that out. Look elsewhere from s and p capital iq. Equipment forrest likes it. Thats what makes a market. Buffett also made a few comments this morning on food stocks. Listen to what he said about Companies Like mondelez. It would be hard for us to make a deal that made sense. Yeah. But who knows what happens down the line. But if you look at whether you look at kellogg or campbells soup or mondelez, they have their prices, to some extent, i think the market has put into those Companies Prices that reflect an expectation that kraft heinz type margins are possible. And that may be the case but i havent seen it elsewhere. Lets bring from senior food analyst at i know you like the stock and you jai alaihig highlight a num positive things that are happening right now. The stock got a boost. But it doesnt sound like you think this is a fundamentally poorly run company as it is. I think for mondelez, there are opportunities here to really get the margins going. That was what nelson pelts was saying two, three years ago. Hes now on the board. It is really right now that those margin improvements are starting to kick in. This is a fundamentals story. Have you an opening new low across plants around the globe. Have you them rightsizing the size of the organization. Youve got them reducing the number of suppliers. So theyre on the right path but there is a Huge Positive margin improvement to come over the next two or three years. Mondelez had been rumored to a takeout target for about a year or so, or might be involved in some sort of m a. Do you still see that happening now that you see this evidence of a turnaround taking place . I think if they can stay out ahead of the expectations and keep delivering good performance, that will probably keep them away from the clutches of possible deal making down the trood. At least in terms of them being taken out. I do think that eventually weve heard nelson pelts talking about a possible merger between mondelez and frito lay, but that would be something theyd sort of happily participate in rather than them being taken out. Thank you very much for your time. The nasdaq biotech etf i about. B crawling back after falling more than 4 toward the end of last week. Is now a time to buy biotech stocks . Eric, start off with you. Is that just the kind ever market that were in right now that in a time where were going to see selling pressure we are going to see investors take money outs of the stocks and sectors which have seen the most gains for the year . We think so. We think the fundamentals in biotech are very strong coming out of a q2 earnings season. We saw excellent Financial Performance from really all but one company, biogen. The weakness we saw last week didnt feel like panic to me. I didnt have a lot of Fund Managers on the phone saying what should i do. No, it felt healthy. Like they were taking some profits. Seems like you both favor some Larger Company companies. If it helps that biotech is 22 of the index. Does that favor stability or some sort of floor or put in some of the larger biotech stocks. I think it does. I think another important point thats consistent with erics comment is that selloff is healthy. Valuations are still very much in a comfortable range and the fundamentals most importantly of the sector are stronger than they have been in my career. The fact that these companies are large and global i think does create a defensiveness and a base that is different than weve seen in prior years. Thats become specifically true to the large cap stocks. Our bias is toward the growthier ones, biogen and gilead. Biogen was the one miss amongst the large cap biotech stocks. Eric, what are your thoughts . Why do you like it . Why are you saying, its okay with the tech news. There is no doubt we grew as a wall Street Community a little bit xa sent on this drug. It is slowing down. We did have to rejig our expectations for future growth. But stock has rejiggered its valuation as well. At these levels we think youre paying very little for any upside surprise. This Company Still has one of the best pipelines in biotech, led by their drug for alzheimers disease. It could be a huge blockbuster, possibly even the industry ebs biggestever drug. We think the valuation is washed out. Thank you, guys. Well take a short break. But coming up, we have much more on todays big market rally, including some sort of offtheradar buying opportunities for one allstar fund manager. A sector check as we head to break. All the sectors are solidly in the green. Stick around, youre watching cnbc, first in business worldwide. Here at td ameritrade, they love innovating. And apparently, they also love stickers.

Alibaba announcing plans to invest 47. 6 billion. Stocks hitting new 52week highs in todays session including mastercarding with Royal Caribbean and the maker of old bay seasonings, mccormick. It seems like whatevers been down this year is up today. Gold, no exception. Down 7 over just the past 90 days but it is higher today. It is dragging the gold miners up with it. Lets get more from dom chu on the gold rally. Gold prices are up today and that typically drags these gold stocks higher. The chart for the past three years, it used to be close to 1,800 per troy ounce. Way back in the day, three years ago. Today it hovers around this 1,100 mark. Yes, an update for gold prices but in the grand scheme of things, perhaps just a little bit of a bounce. If you look at how thats translating into the gold mining stocks, we are seeing a hefty top today, because yes, they have had such a rough time over the course of the past at least three years. Arguably five. Year to date, comex gold is down 7 . But leading to a pop is whats happening with the gdx, the etf that tracks the bigger gold miners out there. If you look at these names, these are some of the big e ones out there, all up between 5 and 9 so far. Perhaps some say a bit of a relief rally, perhaps some Short Covering. If you look into the etf overall, over the last year, its lost nearly half of its value but today, a slight little uptick here. In the grand scheme of things, the gold price story is still playing out in a down trend and what has been so for the last three to five years. The question then becomes whether or not this buying actually gets a little bit more momentum right now. For right now a lot of traders say this is just an oversold bounce thats being bought to perhaps cover some of their shorts or perhaps just maybe nibble a little bit here. But again not a lot of conviction so far. Great stuff. Still ahead, the latest trend in ipos is surprising. It has something to do with the 20somethings out there. Were headed back to the floor of the New York Stock Exchange to tell you what that is. Keeping an eye on oil. The final trades set to cross for the day. Stick around.

Office depot officemax. Gear up for school. Gear up for great. Like most groups, when you have a rally like we are having today, the transport stocks are also higher. They are pushing higher in the session, up more than 1 right now. 1. 6 . Among the leaders you got kirby corp. They make barges. Kansas city southern, a Railroad Company and avis budget group. Undoubtedly you know what they do. Update on two companies that went public last week. Amplify snacks, down almost 2 . Planet fitness down 30 since it went public. This is a big trend with whats happening now in the ipo. Bob pisani is going to tell us this has something to do with age groups. Millennials. Lets bring in the expert. When im not sure whats going on, i bring in the ipo expert, Kathleen Smith from renaissance capital. Last week we notice amplify, popcorn, planet fitness, fitness, blue buffalo, marketing to pet food, to millennials. Why is it suddenly there is a lot of ipos theyre trying to get millennials to buy their products . Health is very important to millennials and emotional attachment to the brand is very important. A digital platform and i would say doing well by doing good. This is what the millennials are looking for. They seem to be very socially engaged. They Want Companies contributing and giving back to the community. Healthy epipos. Fitbit came public and has done very well. Another one floating out there, jawbone may be coming. Wristband technology, jawbone is a piece of that business. You connect and it tells you how many steps youve run during that workout. It has a social connection and uchlsed ve used very much by millennials. Soulcycle is now coming probably in the next two weeks. Soulcycle is huge. Millennials are paying 1 a minute to be riding that bike and their social connection is very big. I think soulcycle has maybe 60,000 followers on facebook. Does Jessica Albas Honest Company have a chance here . Thats going to compete in the natural Consumer Product space. We call it the Millennial Mom is very important to the Honest Company. Nontoxic Baby Products and cleaning products. So tho this point, they make al of their sales digitally. They dont have brick and mortar. It is interesting to see how this company has moved noord wi forward with a digital platform that addresses millennials. Amplified, the popcorn business, did not do very well. General mills is a competitor to amplify and Companies Like chobani in the yogurt business, the Eyeglass Company we expect to see a big attraction to millennials. They are not without issues. Opportunities but also a lot of pitfalls out there. Well be covering these companies very likely in the fall hopefully. And well of course have you back. Kathleen smith, renaissance capital, thanks for joining us. Meantime, a new report out raising some serious concerns over how much sleep our air Traffic Controllers are getting. Phil lebeau joins us now with more on this story. Brian, this is a study of air Traffic Controllers surveyed in 2011. The Associated Press got its hands on this report. Weve asked the faa for a comment and so far havent heard one. Essentially the report says in 2011 a study was done. Nasa researchers at the request of the faa surveyed 3,268 air Traffic Controllers. On average those controllers get 5. 8 hours sleep per day. But for some shifts, theyre getting just a little over three hours of sleep. Heres the concern. Report talks about Chronic Fatigue for air Traffic Controllers saying 1 in 5 controllers committed what they deem significant errors over half of the controllers blame the errors on fatigue. If you remember back in 2011, there were a number of reports of commercial airliners landing at airports where the air Traffic Controller was asleep at the time. Remember, shortly after that happened the faa administrator at the time, randy babbott, said were going to scrap the air Traffic Controllers and modify it a bit. Weve asked the faa if they have a comment and have not yet heard back from the faa. Phil lebeau, thank you. Closing in on oils close.

Meantime the final oil trades are settling for the day. Jackie deangelis is at the my next. I think we just ran a red sticky at the bottom of the screen. I know the price target shows that oil is up right now but earlier today we briefly broke below that sixyear closing low. Things are not all well with oil yet. Absolutely. Theres a reason i call you an oil geek, brian. Because that point is very salient. We closed at 44. 96 but youre right, we touched 43. 35. If we can break that level and close under that level probably we will see more pressure. What accounts for the buying that we saw today . Probably this buying, the dip mentality, shortterm trading and a little bit of a dip in the dollar index. But i will point out that wti had its best day since july 9th. Brent is back over 50. It had its best day since june 9th and they both broke threeday losing streaks, so this one is one to watch. I take that as a compliment coming from you. Thank you very much. Time for street talk. Analyst recommendations on stocks you need to know about every single day. Stock number one, monster beverage. After meeting with management, evercore isi boosts their target. They see a number of possible catalysts including a successful price increase that goes out, execution of their current plans and a china launch in the first half of next year. Their target implies about a 25 up side. Pretty optimistic call considering the disappointing earnings monster has reported. Cocacola has a 17 stake in the company so we could be just a headline away from coke saying it will increase its stake. Theyve also got a stake in Green Mountain keurig. Thats true. Not Good Investments for coke. Second stock were watching applied materials. Sentiment in the sector very negative and there is a lot of anxiety over chip and end market demand. But the analyst says semiequipment demand is still reasonably good. Sub sub 17 is a good entry point. Weve been doing this longer than we care to remember probably, but amat used to be a hot company. The stock is the same price it was ten years ago i understand it went Single Digits during the financial crisis so if you traded it you made some money. But same price as ten years ago. Unbelievable. Third stock, nielsen. The target boosted to 35 from 46. About 15 up side. The analyst says hes received more encouraging comments from industry contacts, media, thats our business. Also he seems it seems like nielsen is better addressing the needs of a changing media landscape. He put in a higher revenue growth. Bottom line is, hes upgrading nielsen. Changing media landscape, they are going to have digital ad revenue track region by the end of the year. So that could address concerns about nielsen being behind the times. Intuit. Raymond james days the current price reflects the companys favorable Business Prospects for the next two calendar years. Pt share should be range bound for the foreseeable future. That stock is off marginally on that downgrade. Its up about 30 in the past year. Kind of a stealth rally for intuit. Todays under the radar name, ttm technologies. Circuit boardmaker primarily for aerospace and defense ticker. Ttmi, the ticker. Upgraded to a buy by stifel nicklaus. They note 30 drop in the stocks prices since june highs because of guidance disappointment but they call that a reset and see steady margins ahead for ttm. Is its been a rough ride for investors. Melissa, thank you very much. Street talk down. Time for our other daily segment, trading nation. Andrew berkeley, craig johnson. Craig, youve got an interesting view on socalled market corrections. Everyone of our listeners and viewers knows what a price correction is. A 10 drop from a high. You have something you call a time correction. What does that mean . So whoever said that the market has to have a correction in price . You can also have a correction in time, meaning that the market can just go sideways. We actually saw it happen last year with the russell 2000. The market went sideways from february to about february. It gives the market an opportunity to catch up. You get a strong push up in the market, you trade sideways for a while. A correction in time allows all the fundamentals to catch up with the price action youve been seeing in the market. Thats kind of what weve been starting to see happen with the s p 500 now, more of a timed correction. Every time the market tries to push itself lower, you find good support at the rising 200day moving average and a sharp rally comes out of it. Thats what we saw happen today. Then you rally right up to the prior highs at about 2135. You see buying pressure start to fade and the market comes back in. You are getting this correction in time happening. It is actually a healthy thing. When you look through history, youll see these time corrections have proven to be a positive for the market as it gives the market time to digest, build a foundation and a base to move higher on from there. Thats exactly what we think will happen this year. Okay. Andrew, from a fundamental perspective, what do you make of craigs argument . Brian, i think it is a great way to think about things. Basically what youre looking at is a market thats really not done much all year. If you go underneath the hood theres obviously been a lot of big divergences. Commodity prices and commodity stocks off a lot, but a lot of the leadership has held up pretty well. It is the question of will the weak drag the strong down or is the strong going to be healthy enough to revive the rally. We would agree with craig, that strong leadership is going to revive the rally. We just need Commodity Prices and stocks to stabilize, give the market a chance. As we go through earnings season, its not been great. We obviously have this overhead of the fed lingering out there. But all said and done we think the fundamentals would still suggest buying the dips. The model we run in terms of ow mark market model is still buy dips and be constructive to the year end. The best way to start going higher is to stop going lower. No truer words were ever spoken. Interesting stuff. For more trading nation, head to tradingnation. Cnbc. Com. U. S. Stocks are rallying today, major averages all up. Mark travis, president and Portfolio Manager with Intrepid Capital funds. There seems to be a shift going on in the market from growth to value. Do you see that continuing for the rest of the year . I sure hope so. We need all the help we can get. Its been tough to find discounted securities the way we look at it at Intrepid Capital funds. Were trying to come up with a conservative estimate of private market values the way we look at it. Just like the proper speaker was talking a bear market at time, the love the quote from Warren Buffett years ago when he talked about the dow going from 66 to 66. It could last longer than a year. Weve kind of through friday midday we were kind of flat year to date. Weve had a very good period over the last three to five years in the s p and theres very few securities. I have a couple that i think represent discounts. I want to get some of those picks. Coach. You say it is a nice Balance Sheet. Im looking at valuations though. Pe is 23, forward pe 17. Michael kors trades about half for the current as well as forward pe. Value by what metric, mark . I think youve got a very liquid and attractive Balance Sheet with more than 1 billion in cash. Youve got a new ceo. Theyre going to stop kind of discounting like theyve done to improve their brand. Certainly china, asia is hurting them a little bit. But youre talking about a business that dates back to the early 40s. It was spun out of sara lee i believe in the late 90s. I think at 32 a share, you can get a materially higher price than where you are today. When you talk about value, you are talking about appreciation for current price as opposed to valuation metrics, like price to earnings . Well, absolutely. You talk about michael kors. I think michael kors has done well visavis coach. But id also say that michael kors share price has even been more decimated year to date than coachs, last time i looked. So im looking at it on kind of an enterprise value to ebitda, operating income, and try to figure out what those free cash flows are worth to maybe a private equity buyer. This morning i asked Warren Buffett on squawk box if he was investing in oil and gas companies. He really said not yet, although the deal he made, theyre about 15 of the revenue coming from the oil and gas industry. I see here that youve been buying shares of patterson uti, a drilling rig company, down 47 over 12 months, 19 over the last three months. Are you making a call and saying you think the bottom might be in for many of these oil names or is this a specific oneoff Investment Case . You know, brian, i think you ld made an interesting comment about the morning show looking back to the 70s on on inflation adjusted price. I think you said 48. Going through my math month by month for 25 years because thats what i do for fun. Im glad to know it. It helped me. I think that, one, im not a believer in the Clean Power Plan that were going to only use 35 of our Energy Sources will be renewables. Im not a believer thats actually going to happen. I think over time oil prices and bt uconn instruction will continue to drift up. But i think in patterson uti, if you look at the 240 rigs they have, most of which are electric and high horsepower and using horizontal drilling, they have a secondary market for it. Most of them are committed over three to five years before they even build the thing. So i think on a kind of asset liquidation basis, pattersonuti is worth more than 16 a share, in my opinion. Now what happens to the price of oil in the short run . I really dont have any idea. How long have you had this . Whats your cost basis for patterson . My basis is right in here, probably 16, 17. Mark, thanks. Appreciate it. Thanks for having me. Thanks for watching in the morning, mark. Do appreciate it. On deck can interim twitter Ceo Jack Dorsey and a bigtime new partnership turn that stock around for now . Its higher but we look at it longer term. Lets take another look at the energy sector. Energy is up today. You heard mark travis going with one name pattersonuti. Youre watching cnbc, first in business worldwide. Announcer and now the latest from tradingnation. Cnbc. Com and a word from our sponsor. No sixth graders ever sat with the eighth grade girls. But your jansport backpack is permission to park it wherever you please. Hey. Thats that new gear feeling. This week, filler paper and folders just one cent. Office depot officemax. Gear up for school. Gear up for great. Twitter attempting to make some sort of comeback today after falling to new lows at 26. 87 in fridays session. The stock is higher by just about 9 today. James, great to have you with us. Sure. Thank you. You upgraded the stock of twitter. A lot of the positive catalysts that you cite or reasons why twitter has fundamental value, all these things could have been listed two weeks ago, three weeks ago, a month ago, strategic value, seasonality is strong, december, it is going to also benefit from the election cycle, new products look promising. It seems the one thing that has changed in the last month or so is the value of twitter now that it is close to the ipo shares. Is that the primary reason why you upgraded the stock . Its a factor obviously the stock has gotten chopped in half from its high. But really it is what we heard on the 2q call from jack dorsey. For the very first time we heard the why twitter is starting to be explained. Dorsey delivered the most cohesive argument for what twitters mission is, as well as critically the challenges that the companys facing that weve heard to date. I think that theres newfound focus in the company that wasnt there today. At the same time when you look at what are the risks to the stock when you look out and the estimates, we think that with the election cycle, with twitter in a very core beneficiary december and the seasonally high december quarter i think the Downside Risk estimate is quite limited at this point. Those are the kind of crux of what gives us confidence today. How do you get your head around the Downside Risk estimates when were when you have a cfo who on the Conference Call which was periscoped used the term considerable period of time for his estimates. As an analyst i would think thats difficult to factor into your model when the cfo gifves you a sort of openended timeline. To be fair, those were circled largely around mau numbers. I think what maus are going to do is take a back seat to the total growth in audience. Whats twitter have right now . They are synonymous with real time content. They have the content. They have to organize the content and present in an engaging way to consumers around the world. If they can categorize it and present it in that fashion, get the total eyeballs on to the site and advertise and monetize, via contextualize, you can convert those over time to maus. The mau argument and the fear around that will take a back seat as the total audience grows as the experience changes. Im curious, what sort of conversations are you having in your office when you are talking to hedge funds or clients, et cetera . Because it seems like most investors who have invested in twitter so far, most of them have lost money or are flat so far on their investment with tr twitter shares back to their ipo shares. In terms of attracting buyer, a getting the calls from guys out there that dont have the position and want to increase the position at this point . Yeah. Obviously people have been burned on the stock. But at the same time, theres a lot of people that hadnt bought into the twitter story because the same reason why consumers dont. Why use twitter . Because of that, theres we have been having conversations with longterm oriented investors taking a much closer look at it today with the pullback. But i think ultimately what it does boil down to is the future of advertising, its going to be mobile and native as, where ads look like content. Facebook, pinterest, snapchat, linkedin and twitter are the only ones that can do it. And we think the risk reward at this point has pivoted to a positive outlook. James, thanks for your time. Thank you. The dow is looking for its first 200point gain day since all the way back on july 13th. Remember july 13th . 28 stocks in the green. Only two over in the red. Those are cocacola and visa.
