1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:08,800 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios podcasts, Radio News, The. 2 00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 2: Stock Movers podcast, your roundup of companies making moves in 3 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 2: the stock market, harnessing the power of Bloomberg Data. 4 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,479 Speaker 1: I'm Emily Brafeo here with David Girl. Let's take a 5 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:22,640 Speaker 1: look at some stocks on the move today with Bloomberg 6 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 1: News Earnings reporter Red Brown. Dollar Tree. This is different 7 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: than Dollar General, right, this is Dollar Tree. 8 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. 9 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 4: I mean, like you said, it was kind of a 10 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 4: drab day in the markets at the end, but we 11 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 4: were able to find a couple of movies here. Dollar 12 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 4: Tree one of the big decliners today and actually went 13 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 4: from a really positive report in the world of discount 14 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 4: retailers yesterday, with Dollar General posting one of its strongest 15 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,919 Speaker 4: results in years, raising their allog as well, and then 16 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 4: Dollar Tree today doing. 17 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 3: Kind of the opposite. 18 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 4: They warned of their second quarter profits could fall as 19 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 4: much as fifty percent, and that's really why we're seeing 20 00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 4: this quite aggressive move here today, and it just really 21 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 4: kind of highlights how different these two companies are. I mean, 22 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 4: the main thing that we need to pay attention to 23 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 4: is that Dollar General, the one that did well yesterday, 24 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 4: gets most of their sales from consumables like milk and 25 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 4: cheese and ice cream, things like that that you guys are. 26 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 3: Just talking about today, Which don't. 27 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 4: Mean I wasn't able to hear your old interview, but 28 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 4: I imagine one of those things maybe less affected by tariffs, 29 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 4: and that's something that Dollar General has called out, less 30 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 4: affected by tariffs. Dollar Tree, on the other hand, is 31 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 4: more of those kind of like you know, knick knacks 32 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 4: and chot Chi's and things like that. Huge exposure to China, 33 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 4: and that's really why they're kind of their bottom lines 34 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 4: they get hit a little bit more harder. 35 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 3: What else are you watching? 36 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 4: Also we can go to the positive side is on 37 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 4: semiconductor they are leading all stocks, actually they let all 38 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 4: stocks today and s people FIE hundred also drug up 39 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 4: some of other semiconductor names, and XP Semiconductors and Sagate 40 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 4: both in the top ten performers. And that's actually coming 41 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 4: off of just some commentary from the CEO who was 42 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 4: speaking at a conference today, just saying that their markets 43 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 4: have finally kind of hit bottom. So outside of AI 44 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 4: MA conductors have been kind of struggling, so like in 45 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 4: industrial automotive places like that have been dealing with some 46 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 4: kind of a glut of inventory a lot of other customers, 47 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 4: and we're finally starting to get out of that. So 48 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 4: so on Semiiconductors speaking to that they're reporting soon, I believe, 49 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 4: and if they do report kind of in line, it'll 50 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 4: be two years of declines, of quarterly declines. But CEO 51 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 4: saying that this should be kind of the bottom final, 52 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 4: We've hit rock bottom and we should be able to move. 53 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 3: On fasting because we talk so much about the AI 54 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 3: chips and the amount of investment and the cost and 55 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 3: the difficulty of making more of them, of these foundaries, 56 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 3: and you don't often think about the wor workaday and more. 57 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,399 Speaker 1: Some right, it seems like the non AI chips, there's 58 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: an inventory glut because maybe a business buy You're not 59 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 1: going to replace your non AI chip like every year, right, 60 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: so you're like, oh, I don't need to buy another one, 61 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: and then company suffers. 62 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 4: Well, I mean we do. We have lost so much 63 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 4: of the conversation with AI chips, but I think we 64 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 4: forget that there was like the supply chain crisis of 65 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 4: a few years ago. Companies bought a lot of chips 66 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 4: during that to get to to kind of like make 67 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 4: sure that they were able to get their products out 68 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 4: and they bought way way too much obviously, and now 69 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 4: and then there's also kind of demand issues in some 70 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 4: of the end markets, so like automotive and EVS. People 71 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,839 Speaker 4: weren't buying as many, so you're not making as many. 72 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 4: So there's just a couple of different issues. But it 73 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,239 Speaker 4: does seem like, you know, the ship is turning for 74 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 4: on and some of these other kind of you know, 75 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 4: less flashy semiconductor names. 76 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 1: Okay, finally you're looking at CrowdStrike, the cybersecurity company c 77 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: r w D. 78 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's right, crowd Strike a couple of bad headlines 79 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 4: coming out of the company today. So they're down around 80 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 4: six percent, finished around six percent, was as low as 81 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 4: nine percent at points during the day. They received it 82 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 4: required from the dj n SC requesting information for some 83 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 4: of their deals. Bloeberg's been doing some really good reporting 84 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 4: around this thirty two million deal with Kera Soft Technology. 85 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 4: Doesn't sound like a big deal, but they are provider 86 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 4: cybersecurity to the IRS, so you know, they're obviously getting 87 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 4: a little bit more government scrutiny for that deal. And 88 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 4: you know, the company has just been kind of tied 89 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 4: up with legal issues and Obviously they dominated the news 90 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 4: last year. So this Ernie Sport that had yesterday, which is 91 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 4: the other bad headline coming out of the company. Kind 92 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 4: of a poor showing first quarter, or report missed their 93 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 4: forecasts for for consensus. So yeah, a couple of compounding things. 94 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 4: This was supposed to be their moment to kind of 95 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 4: shed the bad news from last year of the outage. 96 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 4: This was supposed to be their fourth quarter, you know, 97 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 4: set the path forward, and that's this some of these 98 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 4: other headlines is kind of taking over of what was 99 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 4: supposed to be a positive a positive. 100 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 3: Just note in here for the first time, I think 101 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 3: they're commenting on these investigations, so it's it's, uh, you 102 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 3: confirming the fact that they're they're underway and found to 103 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 3: be a prompt from going forward. 104 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 2: The Stock Movers podcast from Bloomberg Radio.
