Could the debates be key gl the debates could be key for a couple of reasons. The clinton people as much theyre preparing, donald trump is a wild card. Thats sort of the biggest fear for them. Thats the biggest concern. They dont know quite what to prepare for. What if he doesnt agree to any other debates. Weve seen him pull out of things before.

Lets have a look at the european markets. Retail sales there disappointed this morning. Germany is higher despite the Industrial Production data being soft for the month of august. Still higher by. 30 . France also a little bit higher. Now to todays must reads of the day. My pick is in the wall street journal. Titled a warning for merkel. It reads, mrs. Merkels compassionate impulses are admirab admirable, but that the have to be backed by politically sustainable policy. Ahead of next years general election. This of course coming after the suffering defeat of merkel in her home state over the weekend. Just highlighting the potential political dissent graduation were seeing across europe. This is germany, europes power house. Merkel seen as the most influential laddereader across europe. It could cast doubt to the future of european politics given the Important Role she plays in driving the european meetings. So disappointing were those results for merkels party and local con stitch wan si. Many saying she may not be the candidate. I think thats perhaps an overreaction to the local election results. Big headlines on this. Big surprise was the second place. Leap from by the afd. Right wing party. Equivalent to the likes of significant results in europe. Highlights the issues coming to head next year we get french elections, duchl elections, german elections. Such a big year in 2017. My must read is the new york times. Whom to vote for employees tend to follow their own leader. This in the new york times. Andrew sorkin writing the parody of politics over employees is stunning and perhaps unsettling and mentioning parts in part the like tim cook of apple hosting a recent private fundraiser. Nonhappenle fundraiser. Private fundraiser for Hillary Clinton. The influence these guys have on their own employees is quite significant. I suppose the question i have on it though is if this election will follow that course because its such an antiestablishment theme in it. Not dissimilar from the brexit vote. We see jamie dimon come over and various others and that backfires. If creos do come out, could wor the other way. Study shows ceos have a impact. Does seem like Corporate America is playing a roll of having a voice. Giving the diverging views from Hillary Clinton to donald trump. Absolutely right.

Woex wei vocati financial burden of developing new engineses to meet emissions standards has forced car makers to pursue partnerships. President ial nominee, donald trump has previous accused Federal Reserve to keep Interest Rates low to help obama is speaking kwen on monetary policy. Saying they created a falls economy and Interest Rates should change. Specifically trump said fed is keeps rates down so Everything Else doesnt go down. Only thing that is strong is the artificial stock market. Confusing rhetoric from him on that topic in the last few months. Approaching the top of the hour. The team is getting ready for squawk box. Good morning. As we get ready for what i i always call this the sprint sfr labor day to christmas. A lot going on this morning. Let me tell you what we have, ken rogof you have alex is going to be here in control closing the deal with tie co. A lot of questions about that. The deal has become a part of the political.

Of course well also talk about the Monsanto Bayer transaction as well. Thats what is on tap this horng. The sprint. Thats a long sprint. Yes, it is. Its like sprinting a marathon, but i think were back in the saddle, school begins. This is it. The next three months. Look forward to it. Thanks very much. Squawk box starting in eight minutes time. Still to come here, of course, were going to discuss the markets. Lets check into the futures right now. As you can see, the dow called up 25 points. Last week we gained just over half a for u. S. Equity markets. Joining us from boston, jeff kleintop, strategist at charles swab. That number disappointed on friday. Jobs print heading into friday was a tie between whether people were expecting september or december. Whats your latest take. Our vie is likely to hike this year. December far more likely than september. Not so much because of the jobs data. Had a couple of better than expected numbers and a number slightly below expectations here. Reported on friday. The job markets certainly i think justifies a rate increase. The bigger question is what is the global perspective. What is the Global Economy look like over the course of the next several months. Weve gone italian referendum coming up. Thats a key focus for the fed. Remember how big a brexit issue was for the fed. It was looking at what Interest Rates might look like in the second half of this year. That could be an issue that weighs on the feds perspective in addition too many other factors around the world. One is earnings expectations are pretty high right now. One of the widest gaps between forward expectations and actual result s since 2009. The fed may get concerned the expectations are stretched in the stock market. Despite the brexit fears, weve seen the s p gain 4 from memorial day to labor day. If youre an investor and got out of stocks because of the brexit related tax returns, where would you put your money now . Its a great we. Technology stands out as a consistent winner in the markets. The Financial Sector is increasingly attractsive. Its been lagging all year here and will abroad. Lately started to turn the corner and moved a bit higher. In part for highest Interest Rates from the fed. Really important for the financials, but disappointing sector for a while. Might be an interesting value opportunity for investors. Still high beat. Can you describe it as a value sector. Well, it is cheap. I mean, if you take a look at valuations relative to the rest of the market, its been beaten down for good reason. The difference is mainly the issues arent so much around credit this time. Theyre around the income statement. The fact is as Interest Rates remain low, every one of those loans rolling off and over has rolled over at a lower Interest Rate. That could change. Maybe even lift a little could be just the dwood news that sector has been waiting for. Much discussion over the summer about the fact we were hitting new highs in u. S. Equity market r markets on low volume. The question as we come back after labor day when volumes pick up will they maintain. How much confidence can you take from factors such as last week, disappoint job number, Oil Prices Sliding and markets going up. Yes, one toch interesting things in is taking a look at individual investors. Individuals werent the reason stocks had moved higher. Its been institutions, but interestingly we know individuals chase performance and the fiveyear record tends to be what they chase. That has just begun to turn back up again. We started to see five year returns if for stock market begin to improve. Thats in part because of recent performance, but also because we dropped off august of 2011. That big debt ceiling debacle in the u. S. That said bear market send Global Markets into a bear market five years ago. The point is individuals may finally begin to turn around and buy in september and october. Certainly risks to the markets. Might be even heightened risk as we come out of the summer, but individuals may come in and give the rally a second win. If we pivot to commodities. Saying they are going to cut down on steel production. One of the reason we have been seeing depressed prices is china overproducing commodities. Is this time to get bullish. I believe it when i see it. The problem is china theres so much employment and manufacturing production tied to metals theyve had a very hard time pulling capacity back. They want to. They continue to talk in that direction. Their actions have been lagging. They havent really curtailed excess capacity to the degree they would like to. Merging business together. Havent really seen the employment pull back there. Expect that to continue over capacity for some time. Thank you very much for joining us this morning. That is it for world Wide Exchange today.
