Summary

A tough morning after July Jobs data disappointed along with some HUGE revisions when it comes to prior months: Sara Eisen and David Faber broke down the latest – plus new data crossing top of the hour – alongside the market impact for stocks already seeing pressure following new tariff rates on over 60 U.S. trading partners from the Trump Administration. Goldman’s Chief Economist Jan Hatzius discussed his case for stagflation, and what he calls “an economy that’s still growing – but growing very slowly” – but a bit of a different story from Atlanta Fed President Bostic, who joined the team exclusively with a few greenshoots… albeit despite “a very difficult environment right now”. Also in focus: Big Tech and Crypto. The Head of the SEC discussed the regulator’s new “Project Crypto” and what it means for the industry… And don’t miss advice on what to do with Amazon and Apple shares, along with the rest of the Mag-7, as the group falls alongside the NASDAQ.

Good Friday morning. Welcome to Squawk on the Street. I'm Sarah Eisen with David Faber. We're live, as

0:08.6

always, from post nine of the New York Stock Exchange, Carl's off today. Stocks are under some pressure

0:13.9

for a change. We've got an S&P down now accelerating of those losses, almost 2%. Combination of new

0:20.7

tariffs, got a weaker jobs report all in the mix. The NASDAQ down 2.3%. Amazon is really the story here as well. It's August. I mean, always, August, just every time we get volatility. Well, we have a lot of news and a lot of them. We got a lot of news. Take a look at Treasury's. Also, big-time rally today. After a weaker jobs report, Spurs bets that the Fed is going to cut now in September. And we'll get two cuts by the end of this year. We'll talk about it. We've got the perfect guess ahead this hour. Atlanta Fed President Rafael Bostic joins us exclusively to talk about today's jobs number, the Fed's decision this week, and how the

0:55.4

latest tariff news is impacting the inflation outlook. Plus, we will speak with SEC Chair,

1:00.9

Paul Atkins, as the Securities and Exchange Commission debuts what it's calling Project

1:05.7

Crypto, really important speech he gave last night. We'll also break down Amazon and Apple,

1:10.4

two tech names

1:10.9

driving the action today on the back of earnings, both lower, but that 7% slide on Amazon is

1:15.6

really weighing on the NASDAQ. Yeah, of course, as is potentially that job's number as well,

1:20.6

that crossed at 830. Speaking of, we got more economic data just crossing. Rick Santelli, has that

1:25.1

for us. Rick? Yes, David. Let's start out with June construction spending down four tenths of a percent.

1:32.2

We're expecting an unchanged number. That would equal last month with a revision, which equals down four tenths now.

1:39.0

But you have to go to March to find a bigger drop in construction spending.

1:43.1

ISM on the manufacturing side. The headline number

1:46.7

comes in light at 48.0. That means it's the fifth consecutive number in contraction territory,

1:53.4

and that would comp to, well, 48.0, you have to go back to October of last year to find a lower

2:00.4

number. Price is paid moving down last year to find a lower number.

2:03.4

Prices paid moving down, but that's a good thing.

2:08.7

64.8, that would be the lowest since February at 62.4.

2:10.6
