Yesterday, we saw the dow slip about. 5 , but it just hung on to gains for the month of may, gains for the s p over 1 for may and for the nasdaq, over 3 . The tech sector was the best performance and today, giving up a bit of that positivity. The dow currently lower by five or six points. Were looking at the tenyear note this morning. Lets have a look at that yield. Were looking at a 1. 83 had . So down a lot bit over the last 24 hours. A little bit of bond buying. Wilfred, it is already up.

The dow posting its fourth positive month in a row which makes it three perform. Apple was the dows biggest gainer, up 6. 5 . And that comes on the back of some softness.

In australia, gdp rising 1. 1 in the quarter. In yen, theres a lot of yen strepg. Elsewhere, you can see just below flat for hong kong and shanghai. As for europe in early tradeling, were looking at slight declines. Were now down to 1 . Partly weve seen eurozone manufacturing. 51. 5. That was the same as a flash establishment a few weeks ago. I also have europes losing steam in this powerful month of may. And were watching oil prices closely this morning. Opec minister res meeting in vienna tomorrow.

So youre seeing oil across the board weaker, wti and brent this morning. So where do prices go from here . The ceo on closing bell yesterday. The move going back, and by the end of the year. I moved to the last 55, 60. Something around that. Somewhat of a different opinion from cnbc contributor dennis gartman. Im considering being short. I know for a fact i dont wish to be long. Thats one thing. And thats a bit of a change. If im going to do something soon, its probably to be a seller. But am i going to be aggressive with it . Not really. Lets have a look at broader markets this morning. The dollar having a very strong time during the course of may. The index ended yesterday, up 4 and it is up 3 for may ar a whole. Bear that in mind when we get back, over 3 for the nasdaq in the face gain for the broader zone. Today, the main mover, as you can see, is the yen strengthening by. 7 . A big reason, of course, for that nikkei weakness. Gold prices, as well. Were looking at gold this morning rising, but only by ten basis points to 1218. The first month goal has lost ground this year, so its been an amazinging rally. But 6 lower in the month of may. So who knows. In the face of the dollar rising, so it is surprising.

May auto sales are expected to keep the industry accelerating at a record pace this year. Here are three things to watch. First, the numbers. Analysts expect another strong sales rate at 17. 4 million units. Economist mark cameron saying the month of may had fewer weakened sales and that could benefit the numbers year over year. Second wab while Sales Numbers may be strong, incentives are raising questions as to how good the markets really are. And the third thing to watch, auto stocks. While sales have been strong, the sector has passed over the last few months. So any disappointment in the numbers could have ceos putting on the brakes.

We cant believe were nearly halfway through this month. Lets get you up to speed on the markets this morning. This will be the new trading day of a new month. Take a look at futures. We were looking at a lower open today. We did see some gains with 1. 5 for the suspect. Suspect. Did dow jones managed to just squeak out a gain of 1 . But the nasdaq was up over 3 for the month. Lets take a look at treasury yields. This will be important especially as we lead into the june meeting. On the back of comments that we could potentially see a hike this summer, we did get some mixed Economic Data yesterday. Especially with expectations further out towards july. We did see yields fall from multi week highs yesterday. The dow pointing its fourth positive month in a row while the s p makes it three straight months of gains. The nasdaq now to a fivemonth winning rub. Tech was the best performing sector in may and. Ael was the dows biggest gainer, up 6. 5 . Which brings us to our current question of the day, can tech keep up its momentum in june. Weigh in on facebook and twitter. Well bring you the results later in the show. Meanwhile, lets get a check on global markets, as well this morning. Take a look. We did get manufacturing data. Other than that, we are seeing a weaker start to the month. But some solid gains in these markets. Germanys dax down about 1 . A little bit of weakness as we start off this first day of a new month. Lets take a look at asian shares. Japan is one to watch out for. We have seen the yen strengthen somewhat after some weakness. And the japans nikkei is down 1. 6 . And the shanghai composite coming off some big gains yesterday. We had pmi daddy that was in line, but the private survey was weaker.

Oil, of course, front and center this week with the opec meeting coming tomorrow. We are losing a bit of ground, 1 many 6 he. But for oil, pretty strong last month. It was up 1. 6 over the course of may. Lets have a look at the dollar. The dollar itself, very strong in the month of may. The index up 3 today. Its not moving too significantly, other than against the yen. Look at that. The yen has extended its gains to almost 1 . A reason why the nikkei was set this morning. Gold prices, they suffered in the face of a strong dollar last month. Today, were positive but only fractionally at 1218. Lets move on and move over uber and lift. Thats the message from newcomer juno which was officially launched in new york city. Join i joining us now in studio is talman marco, cofounder and ceo of juno. He was almost founder of a messaging app. Thanks for being here. Good morning. Thanks for having me. You claim to treat your drivers and your employees much better than the likes of uber. How is that . Were doing several things across the board. We are giving them equity in the company, so drivers own 50 of the shares of the company, so theyre not just working with us or for us, theyre actually partners. Thats one thing. Were taking a lower commission, which means they get to take more money home. Were allowing them to take tips integrated in the app and the overall treatment of our drivers is much better than our competitors. And just not so far we have i believe 8,500 drivers here in new york, which means were the second largest next to uber and were only getting the best drivers from uber. You seem to have a great proposition for driver. But why as a customer would i go to you guys especially when youre often the same price as uber and lift, right . Exactly. First of all, the proof is in the pudding. Were not even fully launched in new york. And since allowing some to get in, we have several thousand rides a day, which is significant given the size of the competition and the amount of work we put into it so far. And you look at the rating, you look at the rating that passengers are giving by drivers. Its 4. 92, significantly higher than our competitors. You can look at the various stores. 4. 8 on google play. Passengers love us. You make the case you treat drivers better. Longterm, the likes of uber and is lift seem to be pointing towards Driverless Cars. Do you think thats the way its going . What does that mean for the drivers. At some point, we are looking at the future in the same way. The difference between us and the competitors is what happens on that day. If youre driving for any of our competitors, then you get deactivated. They just throw you away. With us, when we no longer need your services, you have built equity in the company. That means you continue to enjoy the fruits of your labor as a shareholder. Thats very different. How many years are we away from that, from Driverless Cars taking over . I dont think anybody really knows that. A decade, you know, a few years left, a few years more. Let me should affect you. I think the question is not whether its unionized or not unionized. To be unionize, you need to be employees. To be employees, you need to offer exclusively for us. I can whats really important is how we treat drivers, whether they are unionized or not unionized. And youve only been launched for a couple of weeks. 8,000 drivers. How many rides a die are you doi doing . Her. So we havent released an exact numb number. Thanks very much for joining us this morning. Talmam jarrko with the liekts of ieber. The companys annual shareholder meeting, they said it will be very a cheep and far cheaper with gasoline to drive the fuller distant. This is the first time tesla has stated this will know about the British Voice for life. Absolutely. It will still be cheaper that sort of assumed this will be par of it. Yeah. And he that will be interesting to see the follow out or, the israeli start up fear last, officially laurchbling its super high end smartphone today, the basic model priced at 14 ,000 the, features military grade security. Of course, international elite. 2 million in funding to launch this first lineup on switch has been in development for more than two years. You know what . There is your opportunity there, will. You need to do the accurate im always that. You know surely the impressive amount within but its nothing compared to. Apple. What about the technology . They cant be as good with all the options. I have never understood that. I look at those virtual phones and some of them are covered in diamonds. I think thats great, its a nice accessory, but with the technology, what does it use . Anyway, good for you if youve got a this time, the president ial candidate responded, and claimed pea an youman described his love your music. Entertainers, certainly, thats one thing you can say. Coming up, todays must reads. But first, as we hoed to break, you are wishg to at 57 milli 57, despite only playing 22 shows. I saw one of those shows about two years ago.

It feels like i am not actually cleaning it up whats that make mommy do . doorbell whats that . Swiffer wetjet. So much stuff coming up. This is amazing woah. Wow. Now i feel more like making a mess is part of growing up. Stop cleaning. Start swiffering. Good morning and welcome back to Worldwide Exchange. A few stories catching our attention, my pick is from the new york times, its titled politicians and the lies that matter. Thomas freed heman writing, but while hillary struggles with the whole truth on certain inches have garnered those with the negative, trump and sanders will be getting away with some full bugger king double womaners that will come crashing down on the whole country. Freedman writes not all lying in politics is created equal. And his argument is her lies are more personal while trump and is sanders lie about things that can really affect the country. And once it becomes a twohorse race, each candidate gets called out a little bit more for their lies. People kind of find it hard to pick out the possible lives, as it were. Dos lass write its hour though this snol the foye, ya i st. Louis kaernt believe it, its an interesting look at how california could change the sentlity. If bernie would win, could that change the minds of some already decided superdelegates. Its certainly giving the momentum behind and its a significant slowdown. And the fact that this question is even being asked at this point in time when clinton has been the productive nominee among media and commentators alike. Of course, i was how the Republican Convention was going to be the divided one want could it still be the case . It hardly seems believable. Right. Lets switch focus. Our twitter kwven this morning off the back of a strong may for the tech sector. For us, the way of that sector will. Well discuss it with a ubs money manager and see what he thinks. You get use to pet odors in your car. You think it smells fine, but your passengers smell this. {ding} eliminate odors youve gone nose blind too, for up to 30 days with the febreze car vent clip.

Obviously, the end of may, we saw what happened with the nkts yesterday. The dow was down, but still managed to eek out a gain for the month. That is big news. Four months in a row now of gains for the markets. We will be talking a lot about the markets this morning. We have a flurry of market gets who are here, david cats, kevin la landis digging through what its expecting in june. Obviously, we have the fed meeting coming up. Just a little later this month, next week. Were going to talk a little bit about that. Well be talking a little bit about what weve seen in politics. We have a special guest host for an hour today. Mitch mcconnell, the senator majority leader. And dig deeper into whats happening in the senate right now. Things that are happening in washington and maybe some areas where you will see some bipartisan support for different initiatives getting passed. Also going to be talking today about the code conference thats happening in california. I think you guys mentioned this. Jeff bezos talking last night. We have a team of reporters covering everything there. But jeff bezos, whether hes Building Infrastructure for amazon, what that might mean. We have a lot of interesting highlights from last nights kickoff address by jeff bezos. Thank you, becky. Thanks. Now, japans softbank is alibabas largest shareholders. Its stakes will now drop from 32 to 28 . Meanwhile, shari redzone says she has no desire to manage viacom. Lets get a check on markets again this morning. Futures this morning are pointing to a weaker open. This after i guess he could call them solid gains for the s p 500 and the nasdaq, the dow jones eking out about. 1 in may. Of course, speculation, lots of investors, expecting a hike in june or july. Oil prices are a big factor. Big market factor. Weve seen some weakness since Oil Prices Hit 50 a barrel last week. Were seeing wti at 38 cents a barrel. We continue to watch this, especially as we have that opec meeting tomorrow. No agreement is expect, but lets get some more on these marke markets. Joining us now is allen. Portfolio manager at ubs and adjunct professor. Were starting off a new month. We saw a decent may. Are we seeing things shift a little bit . Are the markets starting to get wary of a rate hike . I think you see a little bit of volatility now. But the markets are calm because they are expecting a to stay on a path that they described which is raising rates in an accommodative way. Raising rates while still keeping longterm rates low. The dollar was up 3 in month of may. The nasdaq caught up and the s p, as well. A strong dollar over the last year or so has been very bad equities. How much longer can that hold, that duo of correlation between the two . So the strong dollar is an important factor with whats going on in the stock market. But i think the markets are extremely focused on the Federal Reserve right now. Everyone is talking about whether the fed will hike Interest Rates in june. The reality is, even if the fed does hike Interest Rates in june, they can still keep the longterm rates low. If you look at the Balance Sheet of the fed, they continue to reinvest the principal and interest of those coming off the Balance Sheet. Theyre buying bonds. Im wondering, though, the last time we saw rates get hiked, that was in december. The markets were prepared for it and everything seemed fine at first. Then january hedged and then we saw volatility. Do you think that can happen again if we saw a rate hike in june or july . I think thats exactly what the fed is conscious of. And youll see the feds talk of the markets. The markets are in a very good position right now because the fed wants to normalize, wants to demonstrate that the markets are normal. And at the same time, they want to keep Interest Rates low on the long end of the curve. And theres a big question about the fiscal picture. Carl icahn was on cnbc recently and said everybody is set with this 19 trillion deficit. A 19 trillion deficit requires 402 billion of interest to support it. If you look at the history of the deficit, in 2007, the deficit was 9 trillion and we attained 430 billion of interest. So we are in pretty good shape, even from a fiscal picture. Where if you have the fiscal pill all right and and Interest Rates remaining low where they are . Thats what the fed i think will focus on in order to if a tate accommodative policy in normalization. Thats a big part of debt, that you have to keep rates low. Thats exactly what the Federal Reserve is trying to do. And i think theyre thinking like you are, which is they want to normalize, they want to raise the fed funds rate and sam fishes said recently that the Balance Sheet with the accommodative policy while they normalize and they will continue to keep Interest Rates low on the long end of the curb while they normalize the fed funds rate. What are some of these other risk factors that played such a big factor . The chinese economy, right . All is not done. We got some okay data overnight. We have the brexit coming up as well as a u. S. Election. What do you think for the rest of the year, are markets going to become volatile on some of these things . Do you expect them to flare up again . In terms of the brexit, i think the brexit really reflects a global shift in this lack of desire for the status quo. We see it in the politics here, we see i tell in the politics abroad. And i think thats the real question is why arent people happier . You had beautiful number hads coming in on employment. The wage numbers may not be as robust as we would like to see it, but people dont seem to be happy. Oil prices, great strength during may. Theyre up again this morning. Whats the main focus for that opec meeting . The importance about the oil price is its impact on the inflation picture. The Federal Reserve has said for some time that crude oil prices being low is not your longterm thing. And i think that as long as you can keep interest if you keep crude oil prices at a stable level, around 50, that would help the economy overall because then youll start to see the inflation picture normalize. Allen, thank you very much for joining us this morning. My pleasure. Thank you for having me. Lets get to the results of our twitter and facebook question. We asked you if tech can keep up its momentum after being the strongest secretary isser in may. And 359 of you say yes. 31 responding no. So on the avenue momentum behind that question. Yeah. And thats a decisive decision there, i guess, by the people we polled on twitter. And the nasdaq, of course, the strongest of the three main unsies during may. We have about a minute or so left. Whats keeping you watching ahead today . Im watching more u. S. Data because it will be so important leading up to the jobs report and the fed meeting. And keep an eye on squawk box. Mitch mcconnell will guest host for a full hour. Well worth watching that. Thats it for Worldwide Exchange. Squawk box coming up next. Thank you very much for watching. Have a great morning.
