Welcome to Worldwide Exchange on cnbc. Im wilfred frost joined by dee basin in for sara eisen. Good morning. Its great to reunite for the next few days while sara is enjoying a honeymoon. Very good congratulations to her and her new husband. Lets bring you up to speed on the markets this morning. Futures right now pointing to a slightly positive open. But this does of course come on the back of strong gains. 2 gains and over 3 gains for the nasdaq. Only just, though, in the final trading it looks like we will hold on to gains for may. The dow called higher by 3. Nasdaq as well. 1. 875, near the top of the range in recent week which is has been 1. 7 to 1. 9. 1. 4 on tenhe tenyear. The dow is up on its best streak since five straight winning months ending in june 2014. Six out of ten s p sectors positive led by tech which is up by more than 5 . Check out the monthtodate returns the dow is up 0. 6 . The s p higher by 1. 6 . And the nasdaq has jumped more than 3 . Wilf, if you had sold in may and went away we have had decent gains. Weve also had it in the dollar. Weve also had it in oil. Those three united gains dont often hold for that long. Will one of these break down the report. Interestingly, as you mentioned the sector performances. Only one sector remains in the red as a year as a whole, thats the banks. And could that be sort of the sector to watch over the summer. We did a study a few weeks ago that showed a deeper more consistent trough for summer trading has been june 15th to october 15th. Those are better dates to actually step out of the markets if you go by that, you may want to stay in for 15 days and then leave. Thats just history. Things could be different this time around. This is a check of our Global Markets this morning. Asia overnight, better than expected Economic Data out of japan. Factory output rising 0. 3 in april. Japans household declined year on year. The nikkei up 1 . Hong kong up about 0. 9. Shanghai did very well on stories that theyre getting closer to joining International Benchmarks up 3. 3 . Asia as a whole have been pretty strong over the last week with u. S. Equities. Europe, too, strong over the last week. This morning down about. 33 . German retail sales dropped. Labor market data was decent. And eurozone wide money supply was robust. But down about. 33 . Were watching oil markets closely. Theyre watching an opec meeting on thursday.

The broader index turning in another positive week. Four weeks in a row for gains of the u. S. Dollar. Just a reminder that were no longer in that softer environment. Much softer than a year ago. Four weeks of gains for the broader index. This morning, not too much movement. The biggest move is the australian dollar. Factors in the dollar, elsewhere only moves about 0. 11 . A quick look at gold prices as well which this morning is suffering by 1213. It may be a holiday shortened trading week but theres still plenty of data squeezed into the next four days. Look for personal income, the caseshiller home price index. As well as chicago pmi and Consumer Confidence for may. And wednesday, we got ism manufacturing and the beige book. Thursday, adp employment report. Friday, it is the big one, nonfarm payrolls along with ism services. That will be a big one. Absolutely. I think its interesting that the last couple weeks very much focused on fed speak as opposed to the data. Theres been some data, but this week, back on the data side with the jobs numbers. With the expectations, it seems it just rose overnight with yellen making the promise that she did, that the fed is justify jumping. Absolutely. The hike expectation coming forward, at least one this year, possibly two. When they will start will be the key. That jobs number will be important. There is also some more fed speak, of course, and speculation will move markets. James bullard speaking at a conference in seoul. He said labor markets appear to be, quote, well prepared for a hike but didnt specify a date for the move. Stocks to watch, jazz pharma is buying celator for 1. 5 billion.

This follows a high profile loss for oracle last week in a court fight with google. Wilf, the price tag on that would have been 9 billion for oracle. The jury did not rule in their favor but they sure could have used some of that. They definitely could have used that. This morning, were watching, of course, the Sumner Redstone battle. More shots fired over the weekend for the latest. Heres landon. Shes got details. Wilfred, good morning. Heres the latest on the saga, viacom vowed monday, theyre not going down without a fight.

Im wilfred frost joined by dee b bosa sitting in for sara eisen. Its a pretty solid month for u. S. Equities. The s p 500 is set to open slightly higher. The nasdaq coming off of gains of 3 last week. A pretty good week for tech, implied open of more than six point which is also take a look at the tenyear. This is going to be important to watch, especially as we get closer to that june fed meeting and july fed meeting. The chat on the market is will the fed hike those expectations that have ridge on the back of Janet Yellens comments and James Bullards comments. Weve seen the fed rising over the last few session. Lets take a look at currency no, not today. Im still getting used to thing. The dollar which has been very strong. Four weeks of gains for the u. S. Dollar over the last four weeks. As we said, earlier, trading, this is the final trading session of may. The dow is on track for its fourth consecutive positive month. That would be its best streak since five straight winning months ending in june 2014. Six out of ten are positive. And led by tech up by more than 5 . Dow is up 0. 6 of a percent. S p is higher by 1. 6 . The nasdaq has jumped more than 3 . That led to the twitter question, is it time to sell for the summer . Do continue to get in touch, and we will be updating down the results of that poll later in the show. You wonder, was mays gain sort of like a bonus, right . Typically, the markets dont do all that well in may. Lets get a check on the Global Markets as well in asia. Japans nikkei. Up on the back of better data. China is the one to watch, wilf, 3 is not much for the shanghai. It telling how boring china has been. Consumer prices falling 0. 1 on the year in may. Thats the second month declining in prices. Youre seeing markets there under pressure but a solid week for a lost these markets. Exactly like the u. S. , both asia and europe did well last week. Opec meeting coming up in vienna on thursday.

Of course, strong gains for oil in recent weeks. It was up 1. 9 . Last weekend, its up 7. 4 in the month of way, wti. So, strong performance. All eyes on opec for thursday. Thats right, wilf. I just jumped the gun a little bit. Lets take a look at the bottom markets and the dollar. Four weeks, right, of gains for the dollar which is the longest streak weve seen for a while. This on the back of Janet Yellens comments on friday saying the u. S. Economy could perhaps handle another Interest Rate hike and that could be in june and july. Certainly on the mind of investors. Its going to be an important data point for the federal reserve. Lets take a look at what global has been under. Were currently sitting at 1,213. It may be a short. Ed trading week but theres still Economic Data. Today look for personal income. The march s p caseshiller home index, as well as chicago pmi and Consumer Confidence for may. On wednesday, we get the ism manufacturing and the feds beige book law on thursday. And friday, its the big one, may nonfarm pairls along with the ism services index. Lots of data to watch this week. Lets switch focus. The past week, Cocacola Enterprises shareholders approved the merger with two bottling companies. That deal creating the Worlds Largest independent coke bottler. It will start trading in new york, london and amsterdam. And joining us from amsterdam first on cnbc, john bock, new ceo. Very good morning to you, john. Thanks for joining us. Congratulations with closing the merger with your other europe mean coke bottling companies. The question is, to what extent has been this merger forced by cocacola, the company, because in the need of slightly declining sales . Well, first of all, let me say its really exciting to be here with you today from amsterdam. Well begin trading shares later today. Its a Beautiful Day and its a cause for celebration. And were bringing these three already significant bottlers together. Cocacola enterprises spain and germany, to form as you said the largest cocacola bottler in the world by revenue. And were really excited about it because its all about growth. Well have scale. Well have flexibility. Well have innovation. Ability to bring new products, new packages to market and achieve growth. And frankly, what were really going to be doing is taking the best practices from each of the three businesses and putting them together in this new entity ccep. A quick example, the germans are the best in the world, frankly, of dealing with discounters. Cce is very good with dealing with the modern retail trade. And spain is incredible up and down the street. Hotel, restaurant, cafe distribution. So its the best of the best coming together to form ccep. Good morning, john. Im wondering about the savings aspect of this. Savings is a huge part of that. You guys aiming to cut costs by 375 million in three years. How do you get there . What are some of those initiatives . Yeah, just to be clear, it is all about growth and thats the primary reason we did this entity, but its also about savings. And we committed to 350 to 375 million u. S. Dollars a year, by year three. The bulk of that savings is going to come from procurement. We are going to be able to buy things at a much greater scale and a much greater level. And that will be where most of the savings come from. Obviously, as we look at combining at other entities, whether its headquarters or other functions there will be some savings there. What i can say today, ten months after we announce the transaction, were more confident than ever that those savings targets will be realized by year three. John, now, the biggest of course in the world in terms of coke bottlers and taking pretty much all of europe under your wings, will there will be further consolidation moving forward with bottlers from america and from asia . Well, let me just say, were excited about this combination that resulting. Ccep, as you said is going to be a significant part of western europe. Were always open to greater geographical diversification, 96 to our business. Weve got a lot to do right now. Frankly, were very happy where we are. But if other strategic opportunities came along, ill certainly say, we would be happy to take a look at them. I think its also fair to say there has to be a willing seller and a willing buyer to make a transaction work. Against, our interest is all about creating value for our shareholders. So if we were to do a transaction, it would be under that guise. That were goes to clearly create value for our shareholders by doing it. Okay, john, you guys have moved your headquarter over to europe. What kind of savings is that resulting in due to the fact that youre no longer page a higher u. S. Tax bill . How will that affect the Balance Sheets . Let me just be clear this is a strategic and financial transaction, absolutely. Our business was already 100 in europe. Cocacola enterprises was in seven countries in europe. Cocacola iberian partners were in three. Spain and iceland. Putting it all together is a very strong strategic and fvnl transaction. The new headquarters will be in london. In green bat britain, which is of the largest and we think is the most appropriate to have the domicile going forward. In terms of trading two primary places, amsterdam in europe. And new york where the bulk of our shares have been traded historically. But those will be the two exchanges where we anticipate most of the our shares will be traded in the future. And, of course, thats why were here in amsterdam today to ring the bell and celebrate the opening of trading here. John, as you said, all across europe and headquartered in london. Does the threat of an exit from the European Union concern you . We think that whole decision needs to be up to the choices that are going to be made by uk voters. Just to remind everyone, some 95 of the products that are sold in any one our given markets are produced in that same market. So, we frankly, think that the british voters should decide about brexit. Whatever the decision is, we will certainly be able to deal with it it it. John, your held quarters, youve only just moved into the uk, theyll remain in the uk either way . Absolutely. The headquarters of Cocacola Enterprises was already in london. And that will be an expanded headquarters now for the whole of ccep. But what happens on brexit would have no impact whatsoever on the choice of our headquarters. Can we touch as well, john, just quickly on the health of the consumer in europe. What trends are you seeing in your outlook for the year ahead . Well, our sense is europe continues to get better and better from an economic standpoint. And i have to say in our category, just to put it in perspective, its 100 billion euros. Thats the size of the nonalcoholic readytodrink category. And unlike some fmcg categories it is growing. And we have certain pockets that are really growing like Energy Drinks and wareters. Were very excited about the category. And as said, the real function of this combination is to increase growth. We think consumers are becoming increasingly positive. Its still a Macro Economic market that has somal chas. We think there are more green chutes out there frankly. And well make the point that our customers are becoming increasingly more positive about the future and thats important. Because we need to have this very Strong Customer relationship. Whether its Big Grocery Stores or whether its up and down the street. And one of the things we bring so strongly to customers is a value creating proposition to both grow our business and their business at the same time and to create mutual value. John, thank you for joining us. John brock, ceo of Cocacola European Partners. To the fun stories here.

Welcome back to todays must read stories catching my pick, financial sometimes entitled xi jinping has changed chinas winning formula. Writing the key to the hold most powerful leader a few decades was that the trade was domestic poses and Foreign Policy were constructed to create the perfect environment for a chinese economic miracle. With mr. Xi, however, political and Foreign Policy imperatives frequently appear to trump economics. Very interesting read. The way that president xi managed to take almost all control. And also saying how within the economic priorities that used to be focused on exports, manufacturing and it changed to consumption led to domestic growth seeing a lot of bumps in the road. Its a big experiment that president xi is taking on, risks bigger. And its a much different take than the former administration, right . Because he has ruled with sort of with an iron fist. He has cracked down on corruption which has outed a lot of ceos and a lot of companies. It will be interesting to see how this goes. Well, were approaching the top of the hour.

Normally, basically from may to november, at least till october is the weakest part of the year. But right now, i dont really see the ingredients for that. The two major indicators that led the market on the way down which were oil price and high yield credit have both been leading on the way up. So, im not seeing evidence from there. Also, earnings are down five quarters in a row. So, you know, it may not get much worse than that. I dont really see the immediate negative catalyst to drive us down here. Jurrien, have you been surprised with how we equity markets have taken talk of a rate hike coming sooner than expected . I wouldnt say im surprised but clearly theres a game here like a dance between the fed and the markets. The fed is testing the waters to see if the market will give it the green light to go. And so far, the answer has been a very big yes. The s p is back at the highs of the range. Even though the odds for a june rate hike are are 30. But for september, its about 70. So far, everything has been quiet. That seems to be approval by market. I would caution, though, that the same thing happened last december, right . So the markets blessed a fed hike in december. Everything was fine. For a couple weeks, the markets were completely normal and quiet. Then january rolled around it was still a pretty nasty event in january and february. So, we wont really know until the fed has actually pulled the trigger which over, it looks like its probably going to do over the next few months. Jurrien, i was going to ask you about it last time and whats different this time . How do you expect the jobs report to come in this friday and factor into its decision . Not really, i hope the fed doesnt make its decision based on single reports. But then again, we need to watch whats happened in china, the youan as gone down. And awhat happens in china, i think thats the key thing that we need to watch for. So far things have been quiet. Jurrien, would you not say that authorities in china do have a better handle on thing, the currency one inspect of that, than when they did the markets fell out of bed in china . We are now in the next round in summer when it devalued and the fed sort of put this thing on hold. Then in december, the fed got the green light from the markets that pulled the trigger. In january, we had another round of involuntary devaluation. The fed understands this is about the dollar. If the market can price in a hike here without the dollar really going, you know, sharply higher. Than i think everyone will probably get sort of a reprieve here from this occurrence repeated yet again. Jurrien, just quickly, you mention allowed oil prices have been for markets whats your latest on oil . I dont really have a view on where its going to go. But my sense is at 50, companies are going to start making money again. At least in the unconvention shell oil industry. Above 50, companies goy ies areo get good results here. Above 50, those oil rigs are going to get turned on. I think theres a natural ceiling here. Whether 55 or 60. I dont know. High energy spreads fall on 1200 basis points in three months.
