Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news, The Stock Movers Report,

2
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 1: your roundup of companies making moves in the stock market,

3
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 1: harnessing the power of Bloomberg Data.

4
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 2: Now, let's take a look at some of the stocks

5
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 2: on the move here in Europe. I'm Caroline Hepga and

6
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 2: I'm joined by Bluebeg's Markets Today editor Sam Onsted. Sam,

7
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,479
Speaker 2: let's start with oil, a key part of the Middle

8
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 2: East story today. How is shelf faring and other stocks

9
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 2: attached to the oil market?

10
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, so, I think you know, this is probably you know,

11
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:41,199
Speaker 3: the main mechanism through which all of this concern and

12
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 3: the geopolitical concern is feeding into markets. But you know,

13
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 3: so oil prights is up at the moment, you know,

14
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 3: on my screens at about nine percent. For break crud,

15
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 3: oil stops aren't quite rising that much, so they're all up.

16
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 3: The stock six hundred Energy index is at a new

17
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 3: record high. It has been heading in that direction pretty

18
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 3: consistently over the course of the last year or so,

19
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 3: and certainly since they're kind of tariff chaos last year.

20
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 3: But yeah, you know, the key question not only for

21
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 3: all stocks, but I suppose for broader markets as well,

22
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 3: is how long this goes on for how sustained it is.

23
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 3: But right now you're seeing a kind of knee jerk

24
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 3: pricing in a much higher oil price in the short term.

25
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, USR price is also surging eight percent for

26
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 2: WCI crewed and natural gas prices in Europe and the

27
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 2: UK really seeing a big jump in natural gas prices

28
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:36,320
Speaker 2: in the UK up almost thirty percent. Defense stocks, though

29
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 2: more broadly, have gained of course, on the concerns about

30
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 2: ongoing conflict. Tell me which stocks have gained on that.

31
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, again, pretty much all of them and another you know,

32
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 3: fairly predictable move BA systems for example, as much as

33
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 3: I think eight percent earlier on today, some of those

34
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 3: games are pared a little bit, but again very strong

35
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 3: performance there, and effectively by defense companies becoming kind of

36
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 3: defensive stocks. When things like this happen, you know, there's

37
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 3: a very clear runway for out of the outlook for

38
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 3: them for spending from governments around the world, and this

39
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 3: only kind of strengthens that case.

40
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 2: Lastly, travel stocks, there have been flight cancelations, very widespread

41
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: broad flight cancelations in the Middle East. Obviously, what does

42
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 2: that mean for the likes of IAG and the other

43
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 2: travel and tourism stocks.

44
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 3: So this is the flip side really of the story

45
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 3: we were just talked about, particularly when it comes to oil.

46
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 3: So you've got the combination of oil going up, so

47
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 3: there's again a kind of knee jerk reaction to the

48
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 3: potential that fuel costs are going to go up quite

49
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 3: significantly for airlies. But probably more significant is what you

50
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 3: just mentioned Caroline, not just you know, flight shutdowns and

51
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 3: operations being shut down, but in an extremely important part

52
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 3: of the global airline industry, you know, particularly from Dubai

53
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 3: and the UAE, extremely important for you sort of super

54
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 3: connector hub for the airline industry. So it's crippling for

55
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,119
Speaker 3: the whole industry. And again the question will be how

56
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 3: long does this go on for how sustained is this

57
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 3: before you can really start to understand how much of

58
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 3: a financial hit these companies are going to take.
