5
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 2: Are We're going to start with Gap because it's taken

6
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:23,439
Speaker 2: it on the chin today. Last I checked, it was

7
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 2: down eight percent. And you know what, I'm gonna check

8
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 2: it in because I've been checking oil so much today,

9
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 2: I've got to check some of these individivey now down

10
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 2: ten percent. The stock is down six and a quarter

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 2: percent year to date, so that's you know, before these

12
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 2: numbers here, look the turnaround A Gap remains pretty uneven.

13
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 2: Fourth quarter sales and profit came in slightly below expectations.

14
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 2: Two of its apparel chains underperformed. What were the old

15
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,599
Speaker 2: Navy and Athleta Gap and Banana Republic, by the way,

16
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 2: which they also own, actually beat estimates. And I saw

17
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 2: this note from Neil sunders Over at Global Data. He

18
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: said Athletics brand lacks a distinct look and feel and

19
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 2: says it's being punished for its relative blandness.

20
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: Wow.

21
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 2: Ouch right, So yeah, Gap has it's work cut out

22
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 2: for it, and you know, this is a big week

23
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,039
Speaker 2: for the retailers. We just found out that January retail

24
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 2: sales were you know, pretty benign. Folks are spending but

25
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 2: not big, right, and they're looking for value. All right,

26
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 2: Let's move on to Marvel Technology, that stock soaring today

27
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 2: after seeing an AI fueled boom in data centers. So

28
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: this is a chip maker that said year, every year,

29
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 2: revenue growth will accelerate through fiscal twenty twenty seven and

30
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 2: actually grow faster than anticipated. Okay, so what does Marvel do.

31
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 2: It's got these chips that are used in servers and

32
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 2: networking systems needed to fire up all those data centers

33
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 2: because of AI. So it expects revenue in twenty twenty

34
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 2: seven and grown more than thirty percent. That's pretty enviable

35
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 2: to nearly eleven billion dollars. Remember we heard from Broadcom,

36
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 2: another big chip maker, this week saying the similar things

37
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: and that AI chip sales are going to top one

38
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 2: hundred billion dollars next year. I want to check, are

39
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 2: really quickly shares of Marvel Technology, Like I said, up,

40
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 2: what do you have it at? Up ten percent?

41
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: Here into pre market trading?

42
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 2: There you go in my mind, just posed up? Is

43
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 2: that like comics. You know this is not Marvel.

44
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: This is Marvel. This is the technology company.

45
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 2: Oh is that how we say it? That's how I

46
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: say it, you know, I think you just say differentiate

47
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,679
Speaker 2: it from Marvel. Costs Okay, New Texts health plunging here

48
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 2: twenty two percent. This is a health focused application software firm.

49
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 2: A revenue for the fourth quarter missed the average estimate.

50
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 2: And here's really the deal. A fifty five million dollar

51
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 2: charge for arbitration claims. Not sure what those were around,

52
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 2: but that dragged down fourth quarter profit. New text is

53
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 2: a stock in company seven hundred and thirty five million

54
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: dollar market cap. It was already down thirty six percent

55
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: year to date. Okay, so no, wady, do we have

56
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 2: time for one more? You want to costco? Costco? Not

Speaker 2: is on the upper east side. There is a cost.

63
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 2: But the issue is Lisa has three freezers in the Yes,

64
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 2: so I used to have a membership. I don't anymore,

65
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 2: but basically a lot of people do because membership fees

Speaker 2: totals one point three billion dollars during the quarter. That

67
