I didn't 56 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: know what it actually. 57 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 3: A decent market cap size, twelve. 58 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: Point six billion dollar company.

They're down right now eight point three percent, the 61 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 4: biggest decline since January twenty twenty three, so that's some 62 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 4: real size and scope. Also trading at the lowest level 63 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 4: since November twenty twenty three. They had earnings that were 64 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 4: worse than expected. They also forecast flat sales for the 65 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 4: quarter ahead. The thing that stood out to though, looking 66 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 4: through some of the analyst notes key Bank basically saying 67 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 4: that the results, again backwards looking left them with the 68 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 4: impression that demand growth had softened in recent months. So 69 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 4: that's before tariffs could be impacting not only the company's costs, 70 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 4: which the CEO talked about how tariff situation could increase 71 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 4: their costs from low single digits to mid single digits 72 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 4: because of their unknown nature as it relates to raw materials, 73 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,519 Speaker 4: but also the fact that if people are cutting back, 74 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 4: spending and cutting back and proving their houses, that does 75 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 4: impact their end market. 76 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 1: It makes me. 77 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 3: Go to the supply chain function on the Bloomberg and 78 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 3: we'k at what are their biggest customers Home Depot, lows 79 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: Ace Hardware, Wolmart, Amazons, True Value yeah right, or contractors 80 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 3: and so on and so forth. 81 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: Can we look at it as a test of some 82 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: sort of Canarian and coal mine or bell weather. 83 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 4: Well maybe they did say that they saw weakness because 84 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 4: it was unseasonably cold in the South and also the 85 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 4: wildfires out in California, so they called out those kind 86 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 4: of exogenous events. But we are seeing Abbamarle, which is 87 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 4: the worst performing the SP five hundred, appear down eleven percent, 88 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 4: so they're trading at their lowest level since March twenty twenty. 89 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 4: So we are seeing broader ramifications for an industry again 90 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 4: that is heavily skewed towards supply chains that would be 91 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 4: impacted by tariffs, and also just the fact that if 92 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,239 Speaker 4: your base goods cost more, that goes up the supply 93 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 4: chain and that ends up being something that home depot 94 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 4: and consumers end up facing. 95 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 2: The Stock Movers podcast from Bloomberg Radio.
