0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:12.440
<v Speaker 2>The Stock Mover's Report, your roundup of companies making moves

0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:15.880
<v Speaker 2>in the stock market, harnessing the power of Bloomberg Data.

0:00:16.520 --> 0:00:18.799
<v Speaker 1>Let's get to some stocks on the move on this

0:00:18.920 --> 0:00:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Wednesday with This is Bloomberg News. Cross At reporter Isabelle Lee.

0:00:21.840 --> 0:00:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Isabelle is in the studio. We've been talking a lot

0:00:25.440 --> 0:00:27.080
<v Speaker 1>about retail with a good reason.

0:00:28.120 --> 0:00:31.560
<v Speaker 3>Definitely good reason. So I'm talking about game Stop. Shares

0:00:31.640 --> 0:00:34.800
<v Speaker 3>are actually falling almost ten percent. So that comes after

0:00:34.800 --> 0:00:37.720
<v Speaker 3>it announced that it will purchase more than four thy

0:00:37.840 --> 0:00:40.879
<v Speaker 3>seven hundred bitcoin. So this is the first bitcoin purchase

0:00:40.960 --> 0:00:43.440
<v Speaker 3>after it announced plants in March. So of course this

0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:46.520
<v Speaker 3>follows in the footsteps of Michael Saylor's strategy and game

0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:49.120
<v Speaker 3>Shop just really joins the growing list of public companies

0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:51.600
<v Speaker 3>putting bitcoin on its balance sheet. I think this is

0:00:51.640 --> 0:00:54.760
<v Speaker 3>interesting because the accounting of bitcoin has been questionable, we're

0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:57.280
<v Speaker 3>called them. Over the past quarters, we have seen an

0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:00.840
<v Speaker 3>adjustment with how Strategy has accounted for their bitcoin gains

0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:04.440
<v Speaker 3>or losses. So but we still see a growing list

0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:08.120
<v Speaker 3>of companies adding to it. Definitely inspired by the stratosphy

0:01:08.200 --> 0:01:09.640
<v Speaker 3>or gains that Strategy has seen.

0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:11.640
<v Speaker 4>I just hear game Stop and I got to look.

0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:14.960
<v Speaker 3>I know, it's like, what is the business you think

0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:17.000
<v Speaker 3>of twenty twenty one when it was a meme? Stock

0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:20.160
<v Speaker 3>or the empty stores when you walk by them.

0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:23.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I think it's also a challenge for investors who

0:01:23.080 --> 0:01:26.800
<v Speaker 5>want to hear from company executives about what the strategy is.

0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 5>And you know, they have these earnings calls that end

0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:32.640
<v Speaker 5>up being not actual question and answer sessions. The press

0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:36.000
<v Speaker 5>releases lack detail, but still we're talking about it.

0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:38.920
<v Speaker 3>I feel like, once you do this, there's no turning back.

0:01:39.000 --> 0:01:41.160
<v Speaker 3>You know. It feels like I'm not saying it will

0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.080
<v Speaker 3>do any it will ruin a reputation, but it will

0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:43.920
<v Speaker 3>do something to it.

0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:45.919
<v Speaker 4>It's like, I think it's.

0:01:45.760 --> 0:01:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Fair to say, right, investors look at it differently, right

0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:49.720
<v Speaker 1>as they try to figure out kind of what it's,

0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:50.280
<v Speaker 1>what it's going.

0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:53.040
<v Speaker 4>But nonetheless, on the move today, where do you want

0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:53.520
<v Speaker 4>to go next?

0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:55.920
<v Speaker 3>I want to go to Abercrombie and Fitch see retail,

0:01:56.440 --> 0:01:59.680
<v Speaker 3>Okay those could be I guess yes, Stock is searging

0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:02.800
<v Speaker 3>doubles up by thirteen percent, So it's a good day

0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:05.160
<v Speaker 3>for this doc. They surged the most inter day in

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:07.240
<v Speaker 3>over a year, although paired back some of those games,

0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:10.160
<v Speaker 3>but still that's thirteen percent. So the retailer increase, it's

0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:12.680
<v Speaker 3>full your outlook, and it just really suggests confidence in

0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:16.640
<v Speaker 3>its ability to just navigate this really uncertain tariff landscape.

0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:19.000
<v Speaker 3>So Abercrombie now is these fullier net sales growth of

0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:21.760
<v Speaker 3>three or six percent, that's up from its March estimates,

0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:26.480
<v Speaker 3>and if this includes approximately fifty million of tariff expenses,

0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:28.639
<v Speaker 3>so that's good news for them. I actually have been

0:02:28.680 --> 0:02:31.239
<v Speaker 3>liking Abercrombie and Fitch personally.

0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:33.200
<v Speaker 4>Abercrombie or Hollister or Abercrombie.

0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:35.079
<v Speaker 5>That's what I was going to ask, because is Mary

0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:38.760
<v Speaker 5>Ross Gilbert has like are you looking at me?

0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:41.880
<v Speaker 1>Some of their vintage doesn't look like two shirts crass shirts?

0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:42.400
<v Speaker 4>Just ask you?

0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:44.240
<v Speaker 5>Does like I buy any clothes?

0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:47.840
<v Speaker 4>You do have a mode? Yeah?

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:51.519
<v Speaker 3>Show me all though with this top? Actually I think,

0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:55.480
<v Speaker 3>is you what are wearing? Yes, they frevamped to office clothes, but.

0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 4>Abergom and Fitch still dad like forty one percent year

0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:00.960
<v Speaker 4>to day, like we you know, it's it's it's a story.

0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:04.679
<v Speaker 4>It's a story. Okay. Looked like my by club.

0:03:06.080 --> 0:03:09.400
<v Speaker 3>The only vice gloves for his Pointson ivs, Yes, exactly,

0:03:09.440 --> 0:03:13.560
<v Speaker 3>it's Joey and friends.

0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:15.200
<v Speaker 4>We're all waiting for.

0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:18.919
<v Speaker 3>Yes, this is It's not moving by much, up by

0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:21.000
<v Speaker 3>just almost one percent, but I think it's really the

0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:23.160
<v Speaker 3>talk of the day or the week. I mean, the

0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:25.800
<v Speaker 3>company starout the early season, so it shares jump forty

0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:28.640
<v Speaker 3>percent from the April low, and it reports just in

0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:31.000
<v Speaker 3>over an hour after the market closes.

0:03:31.240 --> 0:03:32.840
<v Speaker 4>It's the less of the big tech to do so.

0:03:32.880 --> 0:03:35.400
<v Speaker 3>And it's kind of encouraging because Microsoft and Meta have

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:37.760
<v Speaker 3>showed outlook that were made mostly in tech. So I

0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:41.000
<v Speaker 3>think investors are really hedging their bets because that, of

0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:44.760
<v Speaker 3>course overall has fueled a tech rebound. We are seeing though,

0:03:44.800 --> 0:03:47.280
<v Speaker 3>based on options, that a roughly six percent move is

0:03:47.320 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 3>expected for in video and that's kind of low compared

0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:51.760
<v Speaker 3>to the roughly eight percent average in the past, and

0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:53.680
<v Speaker 3>that's according to options pricing.

0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:55.000
<v Speaker 4>So I think this it's.

0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:58.560
<v Speaker 3>Because before in video was the story, but now it's

0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:02.400
<v Speaker 3>moved on. It's more tech or I meane inflation or

0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:05.560
<v Speaker 3>recession fears, but not really in vidio anymore. You rarely

0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:06.760
