5
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:20,639
Speaker 3: you some stocks on the move. Bloomberg News Crosshouse at

6
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 3: reporter Emily Graffeo is in the house. DraftKings, place your bets,

7
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:25,800
Speaker 3: place your best.

8
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, so this stock dk NG, it's down about

9
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 4: fourteen percent right now, thirteen point five and the revenue

10
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 4: forecast for twenty twenty six miss they see six point

11
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 4: five billion to six point nine billion. But I feel

12
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 4: like talk of this stock is reminding a lot of

13
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 4: people on Wall Street just how much competition DraftKings, a

14
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,159
Speaker 4: sports betting company has from prediction markets.

15
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: Right.

16
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 4: So, and I think it was Matt Levine who pointed

17
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 4: out a few weeks ago in a column that just

18
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 4: the consumer that wants to get involved in making bets.

19
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 4: I think you pointed out that you can be eighteen

20
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 4: on polymarket and Calshi and trade stocks, you can make bets,

21
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 4: and you can't with DraftKings. So there's a whole kind

22
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:14,680
Speaker 4: of scope of regulatory issues that might make DraftKings more

23
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 4: vulnerable to competition. They said, though they're not seeing a

24
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 4: discernible impact from predictions prediction markets on the revenue, and

25
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 4: they see prediction markets as a massive opportunity for the company.

26
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 4: I'm not sure how I.

27
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 3: Wait, wait, but prediction markets aren't opportunity.

28
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: There are opportunity, and they're not seeing an effect. Yeah,

29
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: I don't understand that.

30
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 4: So DraftKings and also flutters FanDuel have launched their own

31
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 4: versions of prediction markets products. But again, what we've seen

32
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 4: is that the stocks of a lot of these online

33
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:42,639
Speaker 4: betting companies.

34
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 1: If you can bet on the Super Bowl using robin

35
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: Hood's prediction markets, then why would you use DraftKings or FanDuel.

36
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not sure. Again, they're saying it's a massive opportunity.

37
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 3: We'll have to I mean, at some point regulators have

38
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 3: to say this is gambling, right, right, and so we

39
00:01:58,520 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 3: need to regulate this.

40
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, right now, these prediction markets are arguably working in

41
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 4: somewhat of a regulatory gray area, and they're just taking

42
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 4: advantage of it while they can. So yeah, yeah, all.

43
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 3: Right, let's go to travel.

44
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: Let's travel somewhere.

45
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 4: You guys are in a very like Friday.

46
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: You know this, it's a three day weekend, right? Oh?

47
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 4: Yes, right, so maybe that's just Friday, it's a it's

48
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 4: a holiday weekend. Yeah, Okay, are if you're traveling, are

49
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 4: you using Expedia or are you just asking sometimes munication?

50
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, sometimes you don't even know if you're using an

51
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: Expedia brand.

52
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 3: Wasn't there someone in the newsroom who just talked about h.

53
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: Paul Sweeney came by and he was like, these uh

54
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: ll ms are amazing when it comes to travel, travel,

55
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: but did it get it right? Like did it meet

56
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: an itinerary where that you actually want to do?

57
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,679
Speaker 4: I mean, the street has definitely caught on to that

58
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 4: idea that travel agencies and honestly, this is part of

59
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 4: that broader idea that any software company we're at large

60
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,239
Speaker 4: is really at risk. Here for AI.

61
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 3: Toscrict AI scare right.

62
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 4: Expedia take her xp x e XPE down five percent

63
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 4: right now, is down as much as ten percent, around

64
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 4: the lowest levels since November right now. And this was

65
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 4: despite the fact that they had pretty strong earnings very recently.

66
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 4: Fourth quarter revenue grow was the fastest in three years.

67
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 4: Sales and gross bookings also meet estimates, but if you

68
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 4: look at what Wall Street said Canter Fitzgerald, they have

69
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 4: a neutral rating on the stock. They said, until we

70
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 4: gain confidence on Expedia's AI strategy, we're keeping this neutral rating.

71
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 4: And BI kind of noted the same thing as well.

72
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 4: AI is a long term risk for the broader online

73
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 4: travel industry.

74
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's this, there's somewhere this AI scare. You know,

75
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 3: I'm not going to take a perspective, but you think

76
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 3: about it and you can understand how things are going

77
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 3: to change and evolve and whether.

78
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 4: Or not.

79
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: Market every day for the past two weeks.

80
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,119
Speaker 4: Absolutely right, And yeah, it's like a whammy for Expedia

81
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 4: because it's like travel agencies, but it's also just yes,

82
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 4: software companies more broadly are the trade has been very

83
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 4: risk off for software right now.

84
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: Okay, two decliners. Now let's go to something in the green.

85
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 4: Yes, we'll end on a high note. I'm looking at

86
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 4: sure As Applied Materials AMAT is the ticker. It's up

87
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 4: a nine percent right now, actually a record high, and

88
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 4: this is also speaks to an AI trend. They're the

89
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 4: largest US supplier of chip making gear and they had

90
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 4: pretty good earnings overall yesterday after the closed net sales

91
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 4: beat adjusted EPs beat, and yeah, they expect revenue of

92
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 4: approximately seven point sixty five billion in the second quarter.

93
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 4: The global and also domestic build out of data centers

94
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 4: is something that they will benefit from because again they're

95
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 4: they're a supplier, so.

96
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 3: Forty this year and that's after a nearly sixty percent

97
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 3: game last year.

98
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, we saw a number of analysts hiking price

99
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 4: TRD and highlighting the magnitude of the forecast beat that

100
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 4: this company had.
