Global stocks on a wild ride, as the music is. The dow traveling more than 1,000 points yesterday during a very choppy session, despite a relatively tame trading range of 256 points. As for the picture this morning, u. S. Equity futures right now pointing to a positive open. Quite a significant one to the tune of 130 points for the dow. The s p called up by 18 points. The nasdaq by 53. Well see if it holds. The other big story this morning, politics. Decisive wins for donald trump and Bernie Sanders in the New Hampshire primary. The main theme, voters backing the antiestablishment candidates. On the gop side, trump got 35 of the vote followed by a strong number two, john kasich, ted cruz, governor jeb bush, and then in fifth place, marco rubio. All of the sudden we started getting numbers in. Everyone said, how come they like trump so much . I have so many friends up here. They are special, special people. So New Hampshire, i want to thank you. We love you. Were going to be back a lot. You started it. Remember, you started it. A little different there than his second place iowa speech. On the democratic side, sanders taking 60 of the vote to Hillary Clintons 38 . Together we have sent the message that will echo from wall street to washington, from maine to california. And that is that the government of our great country belongs to all of the people. And not just a handful of wealthy Campaign Contributors and their super pacs. A lot more discussion on decision 2016, including that Bernie Sanders warning for wall street in just a bit. But lets show you whats happening in Global Markets this morning. Banks and commodities stocks leading the way lower in asia. The nikkei fell 2. 3 in the overnight session. Weve also got australia and the ftse straits in singapore lower with still many of the asian markets closed. We have more now from our colleague in singapore in just a moment. Indeed. Lets also have a quick look at europe, whats going on there today. Weve got a nice bounce back. Of course, sharp declines both monday and tuesday this week, led by some of those banks, Credit Suisse suffering heavily yesterday, Deutsche Bank. Today, bouncing back. Were seeing the dax and the cac both over 2 . Italy up strongly. That and its Banking Sector have been a big suffering market over the last couple days. Italys up 4. 5 . This breaks the losing streak. Europe was down seven days in a row, hit its lowest level on the broad index since october 2013 yesterday. Well see if the strong gains can continue. After that news that Deutsche Bank was going to come back in and perhaps buy some of its own bonds to stem the flow, that boosted markets back here in the u. S. Europe had already closed. Thats now filtering through to trade today. Just quickly on asia, singapore reopening today. I had thought given the size of declines wed seen in the likes of japan in terms of what was open yesterday that when other markets opened around asia, we might see sharper falls. The fact they havent is a little bit reassuring. Of course, china still closed itself. Thats a big one to watch. Still an air of caution but perhaps not the magnitude. Lets also have a look at Commodity Prices this morning. Late yesterday, the api reported crude inventories rose less than expected in the most recent week. There we got oil prices for you up 2 for wti, 28. 5. Brent around 31. Also a look at gold prices. Of course, were watching markets into Janet Yellens testimony before the House Financial Services committee. Lets show you what the markets are doing ahead of that testimony. The dollar had been weakening. Now the euro is stepping back a bit. Not huge moves ahead of janet yellen. Keeping a close eye on that dollaryen in the middle. Its below 115. What that tells you is its a strong yen. Theres still a wave of caution sweeping this market. That strong yen responsible for some of the losses we saw in japanese stocks. The japanese exporters very sensitive to that. Global markets have responded sensitively to that as well, with a sharp slide yesterday coming back a bit in the late afternoon. As far as the treasury, what weve seen is lower yields and buying of treasuries, despite the fact that the fed has been raising Interest Rates and the economy has held up okay, were still below 1. 80 on the treasury yelled. Will she say anything . Will she hint about the march rate hike and whether theyre going to be cautious given how much the world has changed since the last time they raised rates in december. I think shell very much focus on something you said about 20 seconds okay, that the economy has been okay and the turmoil is not reflective of what shes seeing. Theres a real bull bear debate on the u. S. Economy and on the global stock market. Bulls say this is a great buying opportunity. The u. S. Economy is not heading into a recession. Companies are going to come back and start buying their shares. But the bears say were looking at deflation, Central Banks are losing their policy effectiveness around the world, Global Growth is slowing. So far, the bears have been in control this year. Right. And today, janet yellen gives her perspective. All eyes on her testimony later. Lets get back to asia. Sri joins us live from singapore. I hope you had a nice few days off with the Lunar New Year. How have markets traded so far today . Yeah, pretty grim today, wilf. Heightened risk aversion. Its really manifesting itself very starkly in japanese equities. We saw that classic rush into the safe harbors of the japanese yen and jgbs. Jgb, tenyear yields turning negative for the first time ever. Japanese yen surging. On tuesday we saw 15month highs. So stronger yen pressuring exports, pressuring the market as well. Then of course theres the banks. They led the decline. Still a lot of fear out there about the outlook given that we have negative Interest Rates now in japan. Thats compounding the stresses surrounding profitability at the japanese banks. They were loss leaders today. All in all, it was a very riskaverse day. As you said, all eyes now on janet yellen, her testimony to congress, what it means for the future rate hike trajectory, and what it means for the u. S. Dollar as well. Thats where we stand. Back to you. The world central banker speaks today. Sri, thank you very much for the update. As we mentioned, the fed is certainly in focus. Lets tell you what you need to know. Shell be delivering part one of her semiannual testimony on the economy and monetary policy, otherwise known as the Humphrey Hawkins speech, before the House Financial Services committee. It starts at 10 00 a. M. Eastern time. Also on the agenda, the monthly federal budget statement from the Treasury Department is out at 2 00 p. M. And were still in earnings mode. Time warner reporting earnings before the opening bell. After the close, well hear from cisco systems, tesla, and twitter. Janet yellen also goes before the hill tomorrow. Often, the house is a lot more fun because the questions are way more politically charged. It is another example of how much she has to get in front of the media. Steve liesman said its been 55 days since shes last spoken. Shes been quiet for a long time when the world has fallen apart. Fair point. I stand corrected, mr. Liesman. Shares of disney tumbling after the media giant failed to ease cord cutting concerns. Star wars helping the firm post earnings and revenue that topped estimates. But investors couldnt overlook a drop in profits. Julia boorstin sat down with the ceo and he addressed investors number one concern, a recent decline in espn subscribers. Were going to say on our call in a few minutes that weve seen an uptick in espn subs. We did reference in the august call that we had seen some suberosion. That, in fact, was the case. But the last few months in particular have been encouraging. Despite the optimism, the dow component also saw programming costs rise at espn. Some other stocks for you to be watching today. The Financial Times reporting Deutsche Bank is considering a multibillion euro bond buy back. Shares of germanys biggest bang have been under pressure all year long. Thats helped shares gain today. A strong comeback. Solar city, check this out. Shares getting slammed after the company said it installed fewer rooftop Solar Systems than expected for the second straight quarter. Also warning growth could slow this year, and shares have come a long way from the highs. Pounded down almost 30 on this. Look at the sizes of all the moves in these stocks. 10 is the order of the day. Its extraordinary Market Conditions were looking at. Not just broadly, but the individual stock stories. Seeing such big moves. Big reactions. Lets have a look at more stocks were watching today. Akamai reporting better than expected Fourth Quarter revenues, helped by higher demand for its Online Security services. They announced a 1 billion stock buyback. Shares jumping. Oh, look, normal move. 16 after hours. Just your average 16 . Paneras Fourth Quarter profit fell due to higher costs. Samestore sales rising more than 3 thanks to higher menu prices.

Nbcs tracie potts reports from manchester for us. New hampshire, i want to thank you. We love you.

He didnt get the win he wanted, hinted hell look at his campaign. What does it mean for marco rubio, who came in fifth . And how bad is it for Hillary Clinton . And people saying bush is really pushing to get Chris Christies support if he pulls out. Even though christie went after him so hard saturday night in that debate. But they have a closer allegiance than some of them. Cruz plus trump plus carson all totalled less than 50 . Were saying trump won, sanders won, but theres still a lot for the republican hopefuls to hold on to once they can whittle it down. Id say thats the Biggest Issue from this. After iowa, they thought, okay, rubio is the clear establishment guy. After that fateful debate performance, its back to a fourhorse establishment race. And governor kasich got the second place he needs to go into nevada on the 20th and South Carolina on the 27th. Hillary clinton is pulling way ahead of Bernie Sanders in these states primaries.

Welcome back to Worldwide Exchange. If youre just waking up, europe p predominantly in the green. Just ireland and mother russia in the red this morning. Late yesterday, Deutsche Bank announced it might step into the market. That has put a little pressure back in the banking stocks. Were up about 2 for continental europe. The u. K. Up 1. 25 . What does this mean for u. S. Equity futures . Green there as well. The dow expected to open 130 points. Around about a percent or so for the other main indices. Green on the screen today. Nice wall walk with accents. Now to todays trade of the day. Investors expect Janet Yellens testimony today to be dovish. Our data team crunched the numbers to find out what typically happens on days when the fed chairman speaks. Etfs that performed were the xly, the Consumer Discretionary play, the qqq, the nasdaq etf. For more, go to cnbc. Com and check out cnbc pro. The common theme there is that shes usually pretty soothing when she speaks to the markets. Well see if this time is any different. Its a question of is she soothing enough, given the volatility. I just think shes going to still focus on the economy rather than the markets. In that sense, you know, the comments in the minutes last time, they actually worked because if she was really acknowledging the turmoil and saying, yes, i have to take note of it, that perhaps will be worse still. She has to strike a tone to say, look, im not worried about this market turmoil, but im taking note of it. Walk the line. Noncommittal i think is the word. Joining us now to discuss is the managing director of Foreign Exchange strategy at bk asset management. Do you expect janet yellen to provide any certainty today . No, i dont think shes going to provide any certainty. Thats the least of her job. She always tries to be as nebulous as possible. But its an interesting dynamic. Generally we expect her to be always dovish. However, given the fact the fed has now committed to a tightening cycle, it would be a really serious loss of face for her to basically admit that the current Global Capital conditions have scuttled all the plans for the rate hikes going forward, especially given the fact that the actual Labor Conditions and all of the Economic Indicators are not so terrible that the fed really needs to reconsider its course. So i think shes going to walk a very fine line today and perhaps maintain the illusion of the idea that the fed is on course of tightening. I dont think by any means theyre going to untighten in march. But she needs to sort of maintain that illusion in order to maintain the feds credibility. I think that actually probably will help the dollar, after being just destroyed for the last three or four days. It could get a bounce on that. Youre already starting to see the euro weak an little bit in early european trade. That kind of sentiment from her will probably lead to Dollar Strengthening. Is it even possible for her to be the opposite, to be dovish . The market is already discounting the likelihood of anymore rate hikes this year. Even if she came out and said, look, were probably not going to do four hikes anymore, the market will be like, we already think that anyway. Its only really possible for her to reinforce past hawkishness as opposed to being dovish. At a press conference, a the a hearing, she cant actually make a decision and cut rates or whatever that would be. Right. I think the most likely course is shes going to essentially extend duration. Shell sort of hint at the idea that were still very much on the course of tightening, it just may take longer than we anticipated. The economy still remains relatively strong, but the current turbulence is Global Market is giving us some cause for concern. Although, we dont anticipate it to be a major structural weakness. Thats the kind of message shes going to give to the market. Ultimately, it should give the dollar a little bit of a boost as we go forward. On the reality basis, i dont think theres any chance they do anything in march. Boris, great stuff. Thanks for joining us this morning. Expecting a little bit of Dollar Strength after todays yellen testimony. Still to come, draft kings and espn ending their exclusive advertising deal. The details straight ahead. And our twitter question of the day. Whos got the most momentum going into nevada on the 20th . Is it ted cruz, donald trump, Bernie Sanders, or Hillary Clinton . Vote on twitter. But as we head to break, heres todays forecast from the weather channels jen carfagno. We made it to wednesday. Old man winter seems to want to stay a while in the east. A lot more in the way of snow showers. Rounds of snow squalls coming in. Sort of nickel and diming us. It adds up after a while. Some folks reporting 4 inches of flurries. It adds up.

Record heat again possible today in l. A. , san francisco, phoenix. We have the warmth in the Southern Plains as well. Staying chilly in the east. Thats the latest coasttocoast forecast. Im meteorologist jen carfagno. Was engineered. To help sense danger before you do. Because when you live to innovate, you innovate to live. The allnew audi q7. A higher form of intelligence has arrived. Welcome back and good morning. Draft kings and espn are ending their exclusive advertising deal. Yahoo finance reports its likely draft kings asked out of the partnership. The deal gave draft king the exclusive rights to run ads on espn in 2016. They are in a legal battle with new York Attorney general. And the olympics arent until august, but hope solo says she might skip the games due to fears over the zika virus. The u. S. Womens National Team goalie saying no athlete competing in rio should be, quote, faced with this dilemma. Zika is suspected of causing a birth defect in pregnant women. Other people can be susceptible as well. Its a fair point. I wonder if well hear more about this from athletes and spectators. Brazil need to catch a break. This just doesnt help. Their economy, the commodities, the politics. All right. When we come back, this mornings top stories, including another rough session in japan overnight. Plus, a big win for driverless cars.

Disney announces frozen is coming to broadway. Its wednesday, february 10th, 2016. Youre watching world wor ining exchange on cnbc. Good morning. Welcome back to Worldwide Exchange here on cnbc. Im sara eisen. And im wilfred frost. Lets get you up to speeds on the markets this morning. First up, u. S. Futures. Were called to open higher. Great to see some green on the screens. Dow expected to open up by 155 points, s p by 22, nasdaq by 65. Yesterday the dow had a 1,000point move. Although, the spread no bigger than 250 points, and it ended roughly flat. Lets have a look at europe. Bouncing back strongly today after sharp falls monday and tuesday. Deutsche bank is up 9 after falling 38 year to date from yesterdays close. Bouncing back on news that it might step into the market and buy some of its bonds. Thats helped banks across europe and the market as a whole, as you can see. Up 2. 5 for germany and france. Quick look at asia, where weve had more markets open up today after the Lunar New Year holiday. Singapore at the bottom there. Only down 1. 6 . Red across the street, so its not good, but given the falls we saw in the open markets monday and tuesday, you may have expected bigger negative opens for the likes of singapore today. Japan still suffering, down 2. 3 . China and other markets remain closed. On the back of that weaker japanese yen, really hurting stocks. Among the stories front and center today, Deutsche Bank shares are rising sharply in europe right now, almost 10 . Germanys biggest bank is considering a multibillion dollar euro bond buyback. That has helped lift very beaten down shares. Disney beating the street on the top and bottom lines. Share ares under pressure has investors focus on a drop in profit at the companys cable networks. Heres ceo bob iger on closing bell yesterday. We had great performance across the board, really. Yearly star wars drove studio performance. In fact, the studio, as mentioned earlier, earned a billion dollars in a quarter. Thats just tremendous. We also had over 20 growth from parks and resorts and consumer products. Media networks was down, but that was because of the timing of the College Football playoffs. We had four businesses really that had good quarters. Lets move to politics. Decisive wins for donald trump and Bernie Sanders in the New Hampshire primaries. John harwood joins us from washington. John, great to have you with us this morning. Big news, of course, that these antiestablishment candidates have got such resounding victories. I suppose offset by the results we saw in iowa. Reporter only partly offset, though, because Bernie Sanders did quite well in iowa, tying Hillary Clinton. On the republican side, it wasnt donald trump there, it was ted cruz. But New Hampshire voters last night fueled this populist revolt in both parties against the Political Economic establishments. Bernie sanders beat Hillary Clinton big. Donald trump beat the rest of the republican field big. When they came down to talk to their voters, they sounded the notes of that populist revolt. Heres Bernie Sanders. The people of New Hampshire have sent a profound message to the political establishment, to the economic establishment, and by the way, to the media establishment. Reporter now, from Bernie Sanders perspective, its about cracking down through taxes and regulation on millionaires, billionaires, and wall street. Donald trump sounded a different note, but he nodded to Bernie Sanders appeal in his own victory speech. Congratulations to bernie, in all fairness. We have to congratulate him. We may not like it, but i heard parts of bernies speech. He wants to give away our country, folks. He wants to give away were not going to let it happen. Reporter now, what donald trump said was instead of going after people at the top, he talked about beating china, japan, mexico in world trade. He has gotten populist himself on some economic institutions, including pharmaceutical companies and oil companies, who he hit on the trail. Weve got an unpredictable situation. I think most betters within the two parties would assume Hillary Clinton is still going to get the democratic nomination and donald trump wont get the republican nomination, but somebodys got to stop then and that hasnt happened so far. So john, what is the number two win by governor kasich mean for him besides the fact hes relevant again . And what does it do to everyone else competing on the gop side . Reporter well, more important than john kasichs number two, which does make him relevant again, as will jeb bushs finish for this race, but marco rubios fade to fifth in the race was a severe blow. He had hoped to gradually build, become the establishment candidate, crowd out other campaigns and have the other governors in the race get out. Let him consolidate support and take on those two populist outsiders. That is not going to happen. Looks like the only person on track to drop out of this race who is relevant is Chris Christie, who said hes going to go back to new jersey to take a deep breath. But this race is going to go on for some time, sara. And just quickly, the gap between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, was that wider than expected in terms of what actually happened . Everyone was expecting bernie to win, but how big of a margin, and how worried about it is Hillary Clintons team . Reporter very worried. And its bigger than expected. Most people figured that race would close, but this was a blowout that resembled john mccains blowout over george w. Bush in 2000 in New Hampshire. Remember, in that campaign, they then went to South Carolina, had a very rough faceoff there. George w. Bush came out on top there and ultimately got the nomination. Thats the smart bet in the democratic race, but this is unpredictable. John, thanks so much for joining us this morning. Fascinating results there. Nevada is the next stop. Investors havent really been engaged at this point so far. Although, it just adds to the uncertain picture for Global Markets this morning. Political uncertainty is always cited by strategists as whats going on, even if theyre not directly trading off these results. And so many of these candidates would have very big effects on the market, if they became president. Antiestablishment confusion, yes. All right. Stocks for you to watch today. Starting in the energy space. Anadarko petroleum cutting its dividend to preserve cash. That move will save the company about 450 million a year. Shares were under pressure yesterday.

Good morning. The street is looking for revenue of 12. 55 billion on earnings of 56 cents a share. Beyond the numbers, that ez are the three things that analysts will be watching. The biggest focus is on general macro uncertainty, given cisco is a Large Company that sells to most verticals and geographiege. Secondly, the currency impact. Investors see revenue from china as a potential thorn. Lastly, the cloud, it is a game changer as the market moves towards the cloud, which cuts into ciscos legacy routing business. Landon, thank you. Twitter earnings after the bell, big story. Can they turn this stock around at all . All right. We have trending stories for you this morning. U. S.

When they havent had a license and things like that. I think you still need a license. Okay, fine. Anyway, they still look ridiculous. I know theyre early models, but they look like weird little bubbles. Twitter announced a new trust and safety panel. It comprised more than 40 organizations from around the world.

Like in utica, where a new kind of workforce is being trained. And in albany, the nanotechnology capital of the world. Let us help grow your companys tomorrow, today at business. Ny. Gov welcome back to Worldwide Exchange. Now to todays mustread stories, those that caught our attention. Have to start with politics here. Usa todays Editorial Board writing, love all these pundits staying up all. They say on Hillary Clinton, she has a masterful dema fuful comm foreign policy, making more sense than sanders politically impractical plans, which have been derided, but not entirely unfairly as free college, free health care, and a pony. Going on to say Hillary Clinton needs to start winning and winning big on the next few primaries. Clearly some support behind clinton still. I still think that iowa and New Hampshire have been more exciting on the republican side than the democratic side. Sanders is always expected to do well in one of these first two. Maybe not this well. Maybe not this well in New Hampshire particularly, but as we go to nevada and north carolina, people still expecting clinton to bounce back. If she fails there, then we have a more interesting story. The republican side is fascinating. Its up in the air. What usa today says about that, ill just paraphrase, is the republicans need to really decide who they can put out there in a general election. Theyve got a real opportunity here to win, given Hillary Clintons weakness. They knead to coneed to come up candidate that can seal the deal. Absolutely. My pick today is a quirky one. Bear in mind it comes from a brit abroad and someone that has to get up a at a ridiculous hour every day. Its titled the advantages of dwelling in a decent time zone. It goes on to say that part of londons competitive advantage is derived from its time zone. I suppose it seems like a simple point. The fact its sort of in the middle of the day for so many allows it to be one of the leading financial centers. You can catch some of asian trade, catch the early part of american trade. And it goes on to explore i would suggest Worldwide Exchange is at the center of time zones. 10 00 a. M. In london, 5 00 p. M. In hong kong. Absolutely right. 5 00 a. M. In new york. Everybody is up. This is a fun take at why london works. It also explores the distance airlines can fly and its a hub for people transporting through from east to west. Again t allows me to dwell on london. New york or london. Not a new yorker yet. London is the greatest city in the world. But its great to spend time in the second best. Were coming to the top of the hour. The squawk box crew is coming up. Michelle, we were just wondering, to tie in the market uncertainty that weve seen in 2016 and what weve got in terms of results in New Hampshire overnight, when investors start paying attention and start worrying about the prospect of Bernie Sanders becoming the nominee. Yeah, its tough. If Bernie Sanders gets his way, hell put every banker in jail. Then he cant tax them 100 to death to pay for all his programs. Theres a real issue with his plan f you really start to think about it. Im being facetious. I think were starting to see it seep into the markets. Regardless if its the left or the right. Sanders, as a socialist, who complains about wall street every minute that he can, certainly is a concern. Also, populism on the right. Weve heard ted cruz complain about wall street incessantly as well. I think thats certainly an issue. Were going to have all kinds of guests on to talk about what happened in New Hampshire last night. Were going to preview the yellen testimony and talk about the tech wreck thats been going on and explore whats been happening with the financials in europe and how its having a big spillover effect here in the united states. And a quick final question following our last discussion. Youre super, super well traveled. Whats your favorite foreign city around the world . My favorite foreign city around the world. I like to go wherever the news is hottest at the moment. Fair enough. Oh, look at that story. I want to be there. Vacationing . I still love paris. And hottest you mean in terms of news, not temperature. Right, exactly. Very nice. She likes to go where the crisis is. Exactly right. Michelle, thanks very much. Squawk box coming up in 11 minutes time. Up next here on the show, ken kamen joins us with key points to navigate the Global Market. We want to know from you, what music do you want to hear . Were killing it here. Our produce we are a great taste for music. Go to our Twitter Facebook page to get the link to our spotify collaborative play list. Worldwide exchange will be right back. Welcome back and good morning to you. Check out this chart. The dow traveling more than 1,000 points, despite a relatively tame trading range of 256 points, ending basically flat as well. Crazy moves throughout the day. Joining us now to break down whats been happening in markets recently, ken kamen. Great to have you with us. A very good morning to you. Lets talk about these intraday moves. In fact, basically flat by the close yesterday. Moves of half a percent, 1 . Theyre very rare now, both on indices and individual stocks. This huge swing, what are you taking from that . Its not your grandfathers market. Its not this market where you invest in something, ignore it, and go away. Were seeing the effect of doddfrank. We dont have what we call on the street prop tradein, where they proprietarily trade for the accounting. That used to be the shock absorbers in the market. Now the shock absorbers are these program traders. I testified in congress when we to decimals from fractions, about how well see the narrowing of spreads take out the middlemans profit. The middleman acts as a shock absorb r on wall street. With that gone, its the al go rhythmic trading, when the next change pops in for momentum that creates the liquidity in the market. We all need to be use tod to th volatility. What are going to be the trigger words for janet yellen that could spark big moves in markets today . Clearly everyone is hoping shes going to Say Something that will take the foot off the gas of raising Interest Rates. Whether she uses a congressional appearance to do that, i dont think thats likely. The other thing that weve seen is oil leads the market. The reason thats becoming so is that its becoming the number one input into these algorithms. And well get Inventory Data today. Thats true. I think investors that are trying to kind of plan for the future, think about their long term and retiermtd, they have to find a way to ignore this noise or come to accept that 100point swings is the norm. The last ten days, id say, it hasnt, in fact, been oil. Its been european markets and european banks in particular. Are you concerned about whats been going on there . Were seeing a 9 bounce up for Deutsche Bank, which has been in the eye of the storm. Are we past the worst, you think . Yeah, listen, the banks are in much better condition than they were years ago. All the pundits that are talking about the Bank Problems we had in the past have got it wrong. I think that theres a lot of headline angst coming from this, but Risk Management now is stronger than ever. I guess you could say certainly near in the united states, but around the world too. The doddfrank has helped banks get much stronger balance sheets. Or maybe not helped but forced stronger balance sheets. I dont think the Banking System is really the problem. It might be a headache for traders, but i dont think the banks are where we have to worry. Finally on this idea that earnings really matter and companyspecific news matters. We were talking about a 16 move. Stocks are getting punished for bad news and rewarded for good news in a way we have not seen in the past few years. Mow do you deal with that . You deal with that by sticking with your homework. You have to know why youre buying something, understand the fundamentals of the company, stick with strong management teams and growth and let the market do what its going to do. I submit its the algorithms that have been taking over wall street. I think the trend line continues no matter which way the market is going, but the saw tooth is getting wider and wider. As the tide goes out, we discover whos swimming naked. Ive been looking for that quote all morning long. Its warren buffett. It really describes this morning. It does indeed. Quick point, after yellen, stronger dollar or weaker dollar . Stronger dollar. Ken, thanks very much for joining us this morning. That just about does it for us here. Before we go two, things were watching today. For you . Deutsche bank, i think. Watching what thats done, its been an Important Bank in europe leading performance today, rallying around 9 . Kb and ahead of janet yellen, ill be watching the u. S. Dollar as always. Had is where the gut reaction really shows up in terms of what the markets are making of janet yellen. Will she keep march on or off the table . How strong will her language be . Right. The result from our twitter question. Whos got the most momentum into nevada . Very much the antiestablishment names. Thats all weve got time for. Have a lovely morning. Good morning. Global market alert. Japanese stocks are getting slammed again, falling more than 2 overnight. Also, the force was strong with disney. Company posting a strong earnings beat on the strength of the new star wars movie, but the stock selling off this morning. Well tell you why straight ahead. And New Hampshire voters sending a message to the establishment candidates, giving donald trump and Bernie Sanders resounding victories in the nations primary. If only that was america. Up next, nevada and South Carolina. Its wednesday, february 10th. Squawk box begins now. Live from new york, where business never sleeps, this is squawk box. Good morning and welcome to squawk box on cnbc. Were first in business worldwide. Im Michelle Caruso cabrera along with andrew ross sorkin. Joe and becky are off today. Well start with crude prices. We saw a 27 handle on wti yesterday. 28. 55 at this hour, higher by 61 cents. Thats a gain of more than 2 . Brent is back above 30 with a gain of 67 cents this morning. Also a gain of more than 2 . Crude is getting a boost by comments from irans oil minister, saying tehran is ready to negotiate with saudi arabia over the current conditions. If that were true, i think youd see an even sharper increase because iran has been the problem in terms of getting a deal done theoretically out of opec. Among the other big Market Movers this morning, another selloff in asia
