Leventhal and liz young. Liz, is this all about stimulus or are were genuinely concerned about these cases were seeing in europe . And, by the way, were doing a lot of cases here every day, too. I dont think its all about stimulus but were in the middle of a really heavyweight news cycle and its not allowing us to look out any further than about 30 days at a time. Ultimately in 30 days time the market is lower than today just on monday the s p was up 5 month to date. That didnt make common sense. Were in the middle of a highly c contentious market season and were still waiting for stimulus in the short term i think we should see a pull back here but in the longer term and even in the next three to four months, some of the fear around a blue wave has been a little overblown and the market has to weigh the two sides. On one side we might see higher tax ees and stronger regulation and on the other side some of the tariffs may be rolled back as an investor, even if we have a pullback in th
Away from new highs. Joe, i begin with you. The question is how are we going to get to those new highs . Value is outperforming today is this the start of the longawaited rotation . Well, your initiating a great conversation, scott, because as you have identified the s p 500 is basically sitting less than 1 above its all time high whats critical, though, in getting there if you are not going to have a significant outperformance from what has worked, which is clearly hyper growth, is youre going to have to have the participation from the value names. Lets put in context where value really is. Scott, the russell 2,000 is still sitting 9 below its all time high it achieved in august of 2018. When im thinking about value i also have to think about value and get contribution from small cap value, not just Large Cap Value because there has been such a differentiation in the Small Cap Index this year. Small cap growth is up 22 year to date. Small cap value is down 12 . So, yes, i believe it h
Were monitoring very closely for you, what is an acceptable surge . They usually like to say three to 5 increase over existing cases and a three to 5 increase of positive cases from what were positive cases before. It is not a hard and fast rule. But were watching that very, very closely because were told right now senate cdc is going to start giving specifics to that. I have not seen that before coming to air to join you right now. That is really going to be the big one to follow today, because if that shows to be beyond that range, some of the states that had planned roll outs will delay those rollouts. Whether that applies to florida is anyones guess. Right now the cases there have been noteworthy in terms of the spike but so far on the part of the governor there no plans to change the continuing rollout of these sheltering and various phases that will essentially get the entire ocean state open by the end of next month. All right. Lets get the latest. Excuse me, from edward lawrenc
That converted the selloff into a rally. Then came news that European Manufacturing is recovering rapidly from the virus lockdown. That helped the market. Look at it go. The dow is going to be up close to 300 points at the open. The s p, 31. The nasdaq, very solid gain, 70 points. Now, heres another reason for the rally. Big tech, it continues its run. You are looking at premarket prices for apple, microsoft, facebook and netflix, amongst others, all four hit record highs monday. The big tech surge dominates the market. Big tech is pushing higher. Investors this morning ignoring scenes like this. Chaos in d. C. Last night. Right outside the white house, demonstrators vandalized a church, they tried to pull down the statue of Andrew Jackson and they also tried to establish their own seattlelike autonomous zone. This is happening in our Nations Capital right in the center of government. The president s had something to say about this. He obviously doesnt like it. But no word yet from joe
Jakarta just coming online. Interesting when it comes to the hang seng, we are close to those session highs for the hang seng. Cathay pacific certainly one to watch. Spike onned that brief this governmentbacked rescue plan. We come back to earth a little bit. Still seeing shares elevated a little bit. Chinese stocks slightly lower. We missed on the Inflation Numbers. Small caps in china close to 20 higher from those lows we saw. India futures also pointing positive. We are watching the dollar as well. Down for nine of the last 10 sessions. A little bit of exception with the yen, 107. 79. The hong kong dollar still on the stronger side but kyle bass doubling down on his bet against the peg. We will see what kind of demand there is. Offshore renminbi pretty much unchanged right now. Haslinda lets stay with china. Factory prices continue to fall in may. The country continues to deal with the fallout of the coronavirus pandemic. Lets cross to selina wang in beijing. Break down the Inflatio
