<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news.

0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:12.440
<v Speaker 2>The Stock Movers Report, your roundup of companies making moves

0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:15.880
<v Speaker 2>in the stock market, harnessing the power of Bloomberg Data.

0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:18.360
<v Speaker 3>Let's take a look at some stocks on the move today.

0:00:18.360 --> 0:00:21.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm Nathan Hager, joined by Bloomberg's Valerie Titel and Valerie.

0:00:21.880 --> 0:00:24.040
<v Speaker 3>Now it looks like we're a step closer to getting

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:27.000
<v Speaker 3>end of the government shut down. We're back to focusing

0:00:27.080 --> 0:00:31.240
<v Speaker 3>on AI stocks, and in Vidia certainly in focus this morning.

0:00:31.320 --> 0:00:33.720
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, Yeah, at least not for good reasons. And

0:00:33.800 --> 0:00:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Video isn't focused because it's in the red. It is

0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:39.319
<v Speaker 1>leading the losses for the Max seven this morning. It's

0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:41.680
<v Speaker 1>down one and a half percent so far in pre

0:00:41.800 --> 0:00:46.280
<v Speaker 1>market trade. Now, this does come after yesterday's session saw

0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:47.800
<v Speaker 1>near six percent gains.

0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:51.840
<v Speaker 4>It was in Nvidia's fourth best session of the year yesterday,

0:00:51.880 --> 0:00:54.200
<v Speaker 4>so maybe not a surprise we're on a back foot,

0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:57.720
<v Speaker 4>but adding to the negativity around Nvidia has been a

0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:01.560
<v Speaker 4>surprise move by Soft banked off floated shares of Nvidia.

0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:04.360
<v Speaker 4>They announced this in their earnings overnight that they did

0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:07.680
<v Speaker 4>so in the month of October. They announced that, alongside

0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:12.480
<v Speaker 4>making an additional investment in open AI. So perhaps that's

0:01:12.480 --> 0:01:16.080
<v Speaker 4>saying that SoftBank is seeing more value in privately held

0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:20.120
<v Speaker 4>AI companies rather than publicly traded stock such as Nvidia.

0:01:20.200 --> 0:01:22.640
<v Speaker 4>So Nvidia on a backfoot this morning after the gains

0:01:22.640 --> 0:01:24.360
<v Speaker 4>of yesterday. It's in the red, down one and a

0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:24.959
<v Speaker 4>half percent.

0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:26.920
<v Speaker 3>And that's not the only mag seven name on the

0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 3>back foot this morning. What's going on with Meta Platforms Valery?

0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:32.319
<v Speaker 4>This is a really interesting one. Meta is down one

0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:36.120
<v Speaker 4>point three percent, and this comes after a Financial Times

0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:43.039
<v Speaker 4>article reporting that the company's chief AI strategist, sorry Jan Lacoon,

0:01:43.440 --> 0:01:46.280
<v Speaker 4>is planning to leave to create his own startup. Now,

0:01:46.280 --> 0:01:49.120
<v Speaker 4>this is a French US scientist who is considered one

0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:52.520
<v Speaker 4>of the pioneers of modern AI. He worked on longer

0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 4>term research products under Meta's AI research lab and recently

0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:00.920
<v Speaker 4>the CEO Mark Zuckerberg. At Meta, it has been radically

0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:04.720
<v Speaker 4>overhauling metas ai operations to focus more on rapidly rolling

0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:08.720
<v Speaker 4>out models and AI products instead of long term projects.

0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:10.880
<v Speaker 4>So perhaps he is wanting to leave the firm to

0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:13.079
<v Speaker 4>start on other projects of his own, but it does

0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:16.079
<v Speaker 4>seem to be impacting the stock price. The loss of

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:19.760
<v Speaker 4>this main AI chief scientist, Meta is down one point

0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:20.639
<v Speaker 4>two percent.

0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:22.800
<v Speaker 3>After all the hiring that Meta has been doing at Apple,

0:02:23.680 --> 0:02:28.560
<v Speaker 3>very interesting development. There a big loss this morning for

0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:32.239
<v Speaker 3>core Weave. That stock is just getting clawborate value.

0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:34.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, another tech stock in the red, core Weave is

0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:37.240
<v Speaker 4>down over ten percent in pre market trade, and I

0:02:37.240 --> 0:02:40.600
<v Speaker 4>think this is telling us about potential bottlenecks in this

0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:44.840
<v Speaker 4>race to build out these AI data centers. Coreeve is

0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:49.560
<v Speaker 4>falling after earnings. Essentially, what happened is that they had

0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:52.520
<v Speaker 4>a delay within a third party on building out a

0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:55.200
<v Speaker 4>data center, and that delay means that they could not

0:02:55.320 --> 0:03:00.160
<v Speaker 4>fulfill a customer contract and they had to essentially mark

0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 4>down their guidance when it comes to sales for the

0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:07.240
<v Speaker 4>remaining quarters of the year. So perhaps investors are not

0:03:07.360 --> 0:03:09.720
<v Speaker 4>taking kindly to the fact that Coreweve is not able

0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:13.160
<v Speaker 4>to meet customer expectations as quick as possible. Also, they

0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:16.040
<v Speaker 4>had some tighter margins which were a weak spot in

0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:19.280
<v Speaker 4>the otherwise pretty great report for the third quarter. Now,

0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:22.440
<v Speaker 4>Coreweve is the tech company the ipode back in March,

0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:25.320
<v Speaker 4>and essentially their business model is renting out access to

0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:29.279
<v Speaker 4>powerful AI chips to its main customers, which are Microsoft

0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:30.839
<v Speaker 4>and Meta.

0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:33.000
<v Speaker 3>And just thirty seconds left, but investors seem to like

0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.000
<v Speaker 3>what they got from the first earnings for the new

0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:36.360
<v Speaker 3>paramount sky Dance.

0:03:36.640 --> 0:03:39.040
<v Speaker 4>Yes, shares gained as much as ten percent. They're up

0:03:39.080 --> 0:03:43.640
<v Speaker 4>around five percent now. The company claimed more efficiencies from

0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:46.280
<v Speaker 4>the merger back in August with sky Dance. They see

0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:50.000
<v Speaker 4>efficiencies of around three billion dollars, up from the amount

0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:52.600
<v Speaker 4>they previously claimed of two billions. So investors liking these

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:57.720
<v Speaker 4>cost efficiencies, which were announced alongside a further workforce reduction,

0:03:57.800 --> 0:03:59.680
<v Speaker 4>so paramount skuiddance of five percent.
