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 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:17,760 Speaker 3: Let's look at some of the stocks on the move 5 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 3: today here in Europe. I'm Caroline hep Go alongside Tom McKenzie, 6 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 3: and we're joined by Bloomberger Paul to Chloe Malay. Good morning, Chloe. 7 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 3: Let's firstly look at Bayer looking at a promising drug trial. 8 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 3: What's happened there. 9 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, so they're experimental stroke prevention drug showed very positive 10 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 4: results in clinical study, so that's a big boost for 11 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 4: the company after a lot of troubles recently. Of course, 12 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 4: they're still dealing with ongoing litigation over their roundup weed killer, 13 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 4: and then also they have been seeing declining sales of 14 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 4: some of its key blockbuster drugs that are facing a 15 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 4: growing generic competition. So importantly, this particular stroke prevention drug 16 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 4: is not increasing the risk of major bleeding, which is 17 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 4: usually the problem that arises with blood thinning medicines like these. 18 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 4: So it's a big win because some of the other 19 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 4: competitors have really not managed to make any major inroads 20 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 4: in this particular in this particular part of medicine. So 21 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 4: earlier this month we have seen results from a Bristol 22 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 4: Meyers squib and Johnson and Johnson which really created doubt 23 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 4: about this particular class of medicines. They had to hold 24 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,319 Speaker 4: a trial because one of the drugs that they were 25 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 4: trying out appeared really unlikely to help patients who had 26 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 4: suffered a heart complication. So definitely a big boost for 27 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 4: buyer who seems to be making those inroads while the 28 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 4: competitors are staying behind. 29 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: The defense spaces and focus because there's a lot of 30 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: anticipation speculation that maybe there will be progress in the 31 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: US Secretor of State has suggested there has been progressed 32 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: in terms of talks with Ukraine about getting to some 33 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: kind of deal with Russia, with all sorts of question 34 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: marks that still need to be asked as of course 35 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: and cleared up into the detail. But you're being defense 36 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: docs are as a result in focus, what's happening with 37 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: Henshalt in particular. 38 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, hensold, Ryan, mattau Rank, all of those companies were 39 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 4: down this morning. So we have seen, as you mentioned, 40 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 4: a little bit of progress on the peace front for Ukraine, 41 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 4: and therefore we are seeing those names down kind of 42 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 4: across the board this morning. So last week we actually 43 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 4: had the beginning of this with Chares falling after Zelenski 44 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,119 Speaker 4: said that he agreed to work on a peace plan 45 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 4: that was drafted by the US and Russia. And today 46 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 4: we have got those downward movements again because of the 47 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 4: upcoming meeting between the US and Ukraine, and that meeting 48 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 4: will be held within the next week or maybe the 49 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 4: week after to discuss Ukraine's native membership and also exchange 50 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 4: of territories. Some negotiations have already taken place on Sunday 51 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 4: and Ukrainian American delegations have agreed on some of the 52 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 4: items or adjusted some of the items of the plan, 53 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 4: including the size of the Ukraine and army. And as 54 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 4: you said, there's still a lot of details to be 55 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 4: worked out. But as always, a peace is not great 56 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,839 Speaker 4: business for defense companies and they tend to for when 57 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 4: there is progress on that on that front. 58 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 3: Hmm. Okay, So that's in the defense space. What about mining, 59 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 3: So there's been a kind of short lived bit of 60 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 3: m and a news that has been unraveled today. Explain 61 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 3: that one for US. 62 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, busy weekend in the mining m and A sector. 63 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 4: So Anglo American was approached by BHP once again, and 64 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 4: then Anglo American rejected that bid, and BHP has now 65 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 4: walked away fully from that deal, and so Anglo American 66 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 4: shares yoyed a little bit this morning as investors try 67 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 4: and kind of digest what's happening there on this M 68 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 4: and A story. So this was an attempt by BHP 69 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 4: to a thwart a plan tire between Anglo American and 70 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 4: Tech Resources, and that also follows a failed bid for 71 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 4: Anglo American that we remember from last year. So now 72 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 4: we are back with this data squore. Really, but this 73 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 4: speaks to pressures in an industry where those companies really 74 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 4: want to add a lot of scale of growth, especially 75 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 4: in copper, because that is a material that is crucial 76 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 4: to the world's electrification and both Anglo Marrita and Tech 77 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 4: Resources are very copper rich, and they're about to vote 78 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 4: in just a few weeks on a deal to create 79 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 4: a company that is that will be worth more than 80 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 4: sixty billion dollars. So that explains why BHP wants to 81 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 4: try again, but it's not worked out for them. 82 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 2: The stock Movers report from Bloomberg Radio check Back with 83 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 2: us throughout the day for the latest roundup of companies 84 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 2: making news on Wall Street, and for the latest market 85 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: moving headlines.
