Speaker 3: I'm Carol Masser along with Tim Stanevik. Let's get to

5
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 3: some stocks on the move on this Thursday. Bloomberg News

6
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,920
Speaker 3: Equities reporter Avalon Pernel is in the house. How are

7
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:26,320
Speaker 3: you very good?

8
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:26,799
Speaker 2: Good?

9
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 4: Always fun to be here.

10
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 3: Well, thank you. We'd like to have a little bit

11
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 3: of a party when we're in here.

12
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mark's not really partying today. Is going on with

13
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:34,839
Speaker 1: the stocks that you're at?

14
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 4: Very true. We could go and start off with Meta

15
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 4: Platforms at Sticker, Meta falling about eight point one percent

16
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 4: for an party, very much not a party because in

17
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 4: today drops since October, and that's after Meta and Google

18
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 4: were found liable in the first social media addiction trial.

19
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,239
Speaker 4: Analysts are saying that the Landmark decision could point to

20
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 4: ongoing risk, understandably so for both companies as they continue

21
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 4: to fight thousands, potentially of these similar claims.

22
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 3: That's interesting because they didn't go down that much yesterday.

23
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, this happened before two o'clock yesterday, so the market

24
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 1: was still open. And we didn't see a big reaction,

25
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 1: but I guess now analysts are coming out with sort

26
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: of their how they view things.

27
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:15,639
Speaker 4: Carol.

28
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know earlier today it was down at

29
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: only five point six percent. That was a session low.

30
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 1: Now down eight percent.

31
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 3: Wow, I'm just going to throw this out, No idea

32
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 3: there's a connection. But there is a story on the

33
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 3: Bloomberg about Mark Zuckerberg, of course, of Meta Platforms meeting

34
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 3: Senate Majority leader John Thune. According to a person familiar

35
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 3: with this schedule. So I don't know exactly what that means.

36
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 3: We know these tech execs and heads.

37
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 2: Have been up.

38
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 1: It looks like they're meeting right now. According to PBS,

39
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg arrived at Centert Thune's office at two twenty

40
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: two today.

41
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 3: Just thrown it in, you know, little a little ad

42
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 3: in there for you. Okay, So Meta definitely down a lot.

43
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 3: Valero Energy I saw this one actually rallying.

44
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 4: Yes, you were absolutely correct. It is up about five

45
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 4: point eight percent to hit a record high. That's after

46
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 4: we reported that Valero's Port Arthur refinery could restart some

47
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 4: units as soon as next week after an explosion shut

48
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 4: down the plant on Monday. Also important to note that

49
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 4: energy stocks as a whole continue to arise as the

50
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 4: attacks continue in the Middle East, and President Trump saying

51
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 4: earlier that Iron should get serious about getting to the

52
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 4: discussions table before it's too late. So we'll keep an

53
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 4: eye out for that as well.

54
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 3: Definitely an awperformer, though when you look at those energy names,

55
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 3: let's go to something. Actually, I feel like you should

56
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 3: bring it in because you actually brought this to my attention.

57
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 1: To Jack Daniels. Yeah, let's talk a little about the

58
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 1: parent company of Jack Daniels. You find him in Louisville, Kentucky.

59
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 4: Brown formam absolutely correct. That is ticker BF slash B

60
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 4: gaining about eight point one percent for its biggest injury

61
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 4: day jump since last March. That's after Bloomberg reports that

62
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 4: the French beverages company Perno Richard, is exploring a potential

63
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 4: acquisition of the owner of Jack Daniels Whiskey. Important to

64
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 4: note though, that the Brown family has the majority of

65
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,959
Speaker 4: voting control and has rejected previous attempts to purchase the companies.

66
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 4: But we all know there's been a lot of weakness

67
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 4: in alcohol and beverages just in general, so maybe that

68
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 4: could make the deal more likely obviously unclear.

69
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, people not drinking though.
