1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:08,720 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news, The. 2 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:12,560 Speaker 2: Stock Movers Report, your roundup of companies making moves in 3 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 2: the stock market, harnessing the power of Bloomberg Data. 4 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 1: Let's take a look at some stocks on the move 5 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,119 Speaker 1: today here in Europe. I'm Caroline Hepcat alongside Tom McKenzie, 6 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 1: which joined by bing Big Sam Onsteed Sam. Good morning. 7 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 1: BAE Systems planning to speed up its shipbuilding in order 8 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 1: to meet demand. I mean this is music to the 9 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: years of the British government surely, and it's after the 10 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: big shipbuilding deal. 11 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:35,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, well, music to the ars of the government 12 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 3: and music to the years of investors in defense stocks. 13 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 14 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 3: I think the defense story has kind of moved onto 15 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 3: a new part of the cycle. Now you know that 16 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 3: the spending is known. Now it's a question of who's 17 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 3: going to pick up that spending and how are they 18 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:49,480 Speaker 3: going to execute on it once they get those contracts through. 19 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 3: So BAE Systems coming out and saying we're going to 20 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 3: shave six months off of how long it takes us 21 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 3: to build warships. Music to those people, and so shares 22 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 3: up about three percent a day, having all ready rallied 23 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 3: by about sixty five percent this year and train Line 24 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 3: is in Fogers as well, so yeah, another UK company, 25 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,680 Speaker 3: so an online ticket seller. Ticket sales stronger than expected 26 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 3: in the UK. That was partly down to a kind 27 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 3: of commuter recovery, so a little bit of a return 28 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 3: to office story going on in the background. There also 29 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 3: lapping period when there were more strikes. You know, this 30 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 3: is we're coming through a tube strike in London right now. 31 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 3: That doesn't really affect train lines so much because they're 32 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 3: much more about the National rail that hasn't happened so 33 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 3: much this year. That's been positive for them as well. 34 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 3: And they're buying back one hundred and fifty million pounds 35 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 3: of shares, which may not sound too much on the 36 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 3: face of it, but is about fourteen percent of their 37 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 3: entire market caps. That's very punchy. So the shares jumped 38 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 3: as much as fifteen percent earlier. 39 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: I'm so confused about why there isn't consolidation. You can 40 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,760 Speaker 1: go to the train line and buy your train tickets 41 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: ever for any rail line across the UK, but you 42 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: could also go to the individual train lines website to 43 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: buy your tickets. Very weird anyway. Fever Tree also up today, 44 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: Pricey Tonics working wonders. 45 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 3: Yes, a bit of a mixed story though on fever Tree, 46 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 3: so their shares are up today. That's mostly because they're 47 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 3: doing very well in the US. They did this large 48 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 3: deal with multen Corez, so they have this huge distribution 49 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 3: network now that's working quite well in the US. In 50 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,959 Speaker 3: the UK though, a little bit weaker, so you're seeing 51 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 3: people trade a little bit away from Priceatonics, so sales 52 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 3: have gone down a little bit actually for Fevertree in 53 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 3: the UK. That's partly people trading away from restaurants. They 54 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 3: make more margin on the stuff that they sell to 55 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 3: restaurants and then in stores as well. They are also 56 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 3: seeing a little bit of a trade down, so they're 57 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 3: getting hit by a kind of broader down trading story 58 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 3: amongst UK consumers. But the US story is taking the 59 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 3: precedents and shares up about eight percent. 60 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 2: The Stock Movers Report from Bloomberg Radio.
