1
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news, The Stock Movers podcast,

2
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 1: your roundup of companies making moves in the stock market.

3
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: Harnessing the power of Bloomberg data. Let's take a look

4
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 1: at some of the stocks on the move today. Were

5
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: joined by Bloomberg's Veldana Hirich Don what are you looking at?

6
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 2: I'm also taking a look at Amazon because it did

7
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 2: say it's bracing for a tougher business climate in the

8
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 2: coming months, which really is echoing those concerns that we've

9
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 2: heard from a range of companies about tariffs related economic

10
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 2: turmoil and how potentially it might crimp consumer spending. And

11
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 2: when it reported results earlier this week, it actually posted

12
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: a decent first quarter, but it said its operating profit

13
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 2: in the current period would be weaker than what Wall

14
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 2: Street analysts had been anticipating. In issuing its forecasts. It

15
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 2: said its results may be materially affected by many factors,

16
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,639
Speaker 2: including tariffs and trade policies.

17
00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:59,959
Speaker 3: So tarif was only mentioned once in their beliefs too,

18
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 3: so you have to wonder, like how much hedging there

19
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 3: was around that. Also, take look at Wendy's that's not

20
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 3: up by eight tens of one percent, but didn't they

21
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 3: cut their forecast.

22
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I love talking about a company that maybe

23
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 2: you know, we use, or you can just stop by

24
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 2: on your way home from work, get get a frosty.

25
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:16,960
Speaker 4: It shares our.

26
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 2: It shares our up one percent as of right now,

27
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 2: maybe amid this broader rally that we're seeing. But it

28
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 2: did lower it sales outlook for the year. And it's

29
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: just the latest restaurant chain to take a hit from

30
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 2: potential consumer on ease about the shaky economic conditions. As

31
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 2: we just mentioned, the US is facing a challenging consumer environment.

32
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 5: It's CEO said, just again, as a reporting from Marko

33
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 5: watch US same restaurants sales they fell for the first

34
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 5: time since the height of the pandemic. That's interesting. I

35
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 5: didn't know it's been on such a strong winning streak.

36
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 5: So something has changed maybe so in terms.

37
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 4: Of the consumer.

38
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, important to keep track of, you know what these

39
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 2: companies are saying about the state of the consumer, especially

40
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 2: something like I said, we can stop buy on our

41
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 2: way home from work and pick up a Frosty, but

42
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 2: maybe people are doing that less and less these days.

43
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 3: Well, I mean that's a some way discretionary, right, all right,

44
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 3: let's go to do lingo. I'm wrapping it up here.

45
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 3: I mean talk about discretionary. You would think that learning

46
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 3: a language or using other tools that would be discretionary.

47
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,119
Speaker 4: But that's not CEP sixteen percent right exactly.

48
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 2: It's soaring today and it's actually one of those stocks

49
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: that is up for the year. It's up more than

50
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 2: fifty percent for the year given including today's gains, but

51
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: it raised its full year sales and profit outlook. It's

52
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 2: cited artificial intelligence offerings it's as helping to drive some

53
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: of that demand towards its higher priced subscriptions. Shares are

54
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 2: up up for the year, and subscriptions for its highest

55
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: year products, which is called Douolingo Max, continued to grow

56
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 2: in part because of these new AI features. I'm a

57
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 2: dual lingo user. If I can brag, I have a

58
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 2: one eight hundred and twenty seven day streak.

59
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh. Yeah. But language in French? Wow? So

60
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 4: are you fluent now? No? WI I wish I were,

61
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 4: But I do try to take dealt lessons.

62
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 2: I do not pay for the subscriptions though, so, but

63
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,119
Speaker 2: it does seem to be working with some consumers.

64
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 4: Some people are attracted to these offerings or you the

65
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 4: are you learning? Yes, I'm definitely learning. Yeah, it's just taking.

66
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: A long time.

67
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 4: I see.

68
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 3: It was just on Open Interest and said that to

69
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 3: learn Chinese you got to do like five or two

70
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 3: thousand hours.

71
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 4: But it works.

72
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 3: You just have to do it and you just basically

73
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 3: a lot of people do it, but they don't finish it,

74
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 3: and then that's where they don't get the real fluency.

75
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 3: It's ever Spanish, it was five hundred hours.

76
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 4: Really. Yeah, Well, I'm at this streak where I can't stop.

77
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: I can't go back to zero, you know, so I

78
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 2: have to do a daily lesson for the rest of

79
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 2: my life.
