Apple reports, by the way, apples plan for new faster chips behind that. And you see it there call it snowflake soar since its ceo raking it in every month jim cramer says hes worth every penny, carl. Thats a lot of pennies well talk about that, guys. We mentioned, jim, all the stuff thats coming at us in the coming weeks or the coming days, rather including some investing meetings, crm, adobe, disney and starbucks. A lot of companies that are doing incredibly well and we should also be thinking not just here but worldwide i think its kind of shocking to see that other than the banks in europe, almost everything is doing well all over the place, including these companies which are very international companies. But i think disney has a great story to tell when it comes to plus adobe has a great story to tell when it comes to all the things theyre doing and starbucks it looks like were getting comments saying, look, theyre doing better than we thought and thats also international. All th
Im becky quick along with joe kerr de kernen and Andrew Ross Sorkin. After two days of optimism, the get out there again trade was on turned around a little bit yesterday. We did see people rushing back to the stayathome stocks as covid cases and momentization hs continue to climb. And some states are imposing restrictions and the nasdaq ended up 2 after being down monday and tuesday. Yesterday the dow ended flat, right now indicated down by about 115. Never made to the record, still waiting circumstanling around tt s p 500 down by 2. 5 and nasdaq indicated up another 51 points this morning these were the stay at home stocks, amazon up, apple up 3 , zoom which had gotten hammered, yesterday up by almost 10 took c docusign 5. 2 and netflix 2. 2 and treasury yields, yesterday it was closed for veterans day this morning it is open and you can see the ten year still around the very heightened levels, again, not historically, but based on what weve seen in recent history within range of 1 a
I do want to talk about the resiliency of american corporations to adapt and adjust , whether it was Johnson Johnson a bit ago, the seven could jillian dollars the seven gajillion dollars at blackrock. Thenow the story, executable excellence we are seeing in the statistics. It is going to be fascinating. Jonathan it might be too early to say the gloom of pandemic is behind us, but it might be time that we talk about the provision build of these banks. The number comes in at 611 million. I think that is the positive out of this Earnings Report this morning. Talkednali basak really about that being a key statistic, and it is better than good. I go back 10 minutes ago, the idea that they suspended share buybacks, and yet theyve got enormous Free Cash Flow available for Dividend Growth and maybe some share repurchase. Granted, youve got the mystery of what commercial real estate is going to do. Jonathan i imagine their Capital Return Program will change drastically in about 12 months time.
Tom jon, get out of the sand trap, or whatever he said last night. Just absolutely extraordinary. We have been talking about it all morning. I would think the worldwide audience must be. Just extraordinary. Can we also note there is a job economy coming up, and maybe the next debate they can talk about where this unemployment factor is maybe going . Jonathan and maybe the csuite is still very strategic about when they drop bad news. The Walt Disney Company talking about dropping 28,000 jobs a few hours before debate. Tom well said. Jonathan it is amazing for me to wake up this morning, to watch back at that debate and hear the former Vice President call a sitting president a racist, and it doesnt even register. It is not even a headline this morning. That speaks to where we are at currently in the political discourse in washington, d. C. Tom some of the discussions on the white super missy issue last night are beneath the fold because of the turmoil, the emotion, the rage and the rank
Services committee and how the markets may react. Then we will talk a bit about this try yant stake in our Parent Company comcast, what is the behind the thinking at triant and what if anything may owe dur as a result. Teslas battery day, where that stock is trying to recover this morning after yet another tweet from elon musk which is part of the discussion today, jim. Whether or not hes setting expectations in a different way saying that some of this high volume production is a phenomenon still a couple years away. Hes giving us an underpromise, overdeliver, i think, which is highly unlike him, but it could make more a little more pizzazz. Theres been so much talk about battery day, maybe he lowers expectations an blow them out. People come out and want to buy tesla, want to buy amazon, positive notes about apple, positive note about facebook its just become the pattern youre waiting and waiting for when the selling is over and then, david, they cannot resist. Theyre down 15 and 17 p
