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
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: Let's get to some stocks on the move on this

5
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: Monday with us is Bloomberg News process a reporter Danita Sikova.

6
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 3: When stock we've been all talking about ticker WBD.

7
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 4: Yes, let's talk about the future of Hollywood. The battle

8
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 4: is heating up. Paramount Skai Dance launch a hostile takeover

9
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 4: bit It's thirty dollars a share.

10
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 3: So the math here is very complicated.

11
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 4: But this is obviously just days after the company agreed

12
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 4: to deal with Netflix. There are quite a few headlines

13
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 4: going through a terminal all day. The latest one is

14
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 4: Netflix Coco saying he's extremely confident it will close the

15
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 4: Warner deal.

16
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 3: Of course, way a media executive confident.

17
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 4: Of course, Well, they say, to be honest, it didn't

18
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 4: move the price obviously. Paramount Skidance is up seven percent,

19
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 4: more than seven percent today.

20
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,320
Speaker 3: The ticker is bs KY.

21
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 4: Warner brought secrets that will be d up four point

22
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 4: five percent, and Netflix is down today nearly four percent.

23
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 3: So clearly investors are picking right now this is this

24
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 3: is something that I've noticed.

25
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 1: It's odd when Netflix bid, and when it looks like

26
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: Netflix can win, their shares fall when Paramount comes over

27
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,680
Speaker 1: the hostel takeover bid, it looks like they might win it.

28
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 3: Their share sore. What's fascinating. They've been penalized both days.

29
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 3: I don't know.

30
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 4: Maybe between the close you actually close to the investor

31
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 4: got excited about the d and now certainly they're penalizing.

32
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 3: But there is about debt for Netflix. I mean, they

33
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 3: never I guess, so ballenge I guess. So maybe it's

34
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 3: something they don't need.

35
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 4: But as we said, the initial reaction was negative for Netflix.

36
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 3: That's it.

37
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 4: Paramount is up, Warner Bros. Is up, and the only

38
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 4: loser of the situation seems to be netflixing.

39
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: You know it is not down with any of this,

40
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: Senator Elizabeth Warren. Yes, not have she said that a

41
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: Netflix Warner Brothers proposed deal. She called that a nightmare

42
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 1: at the end of last week, and today she says

43
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: a Paramount skidiance bit is a five alarm anti trust fire.

44
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, she doesn't like it.

45
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 4: Well, we'll have to see what it means for consumers.

46
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 3: Right for sure. There is also a five billion termination fee,

47
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 3: so both of.

48
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: Them, five eight billion from Netflix and five billion from

49
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: very complicated Take it, take.

50
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 3: The money, the money. Where do you want to go next?

51
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 4: Let's go to Test, so much simpler, storry, more constantly lowered.

52
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 4: It's a target, their equivalent, it's the equivalent of a whole.

53
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 4: This is the first time it happens since June twenty

54
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 4: twenty three. What they're saying is even Musk is transforming Test,

55
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 4: so it's all about robotics artificial intelligence. But this is

56
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 4: fully priced and Test ways down on the news. Ticker,

57
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 4: of course, is TSLA, a big change from Morgan Stanley

58
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 4: Test what shares a trait at about two hundred and

59
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 4: ten times projected earnings over the next year. The only

60
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 4: stock that trades higher Werner Brothers, So Test for shares

61
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:09,079
Speaker 4: have largely shook off the year one pp five hundred. Yeah,

62
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 4: the average price Secker is about three hundred and eighty

63
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 4: eight doors Morgan State is actually higher. It still implies

64
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 4: the six percent decline from here, but definitely not a

65
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 4: two berriche take. The stock is up ten percent this year,

66
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,639
Speaker 4: which is not a bad but compared to the years

67
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 4: we saw it was up sixty three twenty twenty four,

68
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 4: one hundred percent in twenty twenty three. So it's definitely

69
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 4: not rewarding this high growth company that investors were super

70
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 4: excited about. And of course we've seen a big shrug

71
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 4: in slides, a big shrug in profits this year, so

72
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 4: that's has been a big part of it.

73
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: Can I just remind everyone that Toyota, a second castle

74
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: of Toyota, is the biggest car maker in the world

75
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: by market cap. They have a market cap of three

76
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 1: hundred and ten billion dollars. The next biggest is Mercedes Benz.

77
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 1: Mercedes and General Motors are neck and neck at seventy

78
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: billion dollars.

79
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 3: Ford is worth fifty two billion dollars.

80
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: I mean, if you take every single car maker in

81
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: the entire world, you don't even get to half of

82
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: Tesla's market cap at the ones.

83
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 3: That making dollars. That's somebody who follows the car industry.

84
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 1: Well, it definitely tells me that nobody on earth is

85
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: valuing Tesla as a car maker. So we make so

86
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: much of a big deal about whether or not they're

87
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: going to meet deliveries or not. You know, how much

88
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: they make on the car business does not matter.

89
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 2: At all.

90
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 3: No, it doesn't. It never actually has right in terms

91
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 3: of what this company is about. I mean, I don't

92
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 3: even want to look at h valuations and stuff. Hey,

93
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 3: let's get to MSTR strategy.

94
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's another company where clearly it's not about the

95
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 4: fundamental strategy. Ink shares are up today after a very

96
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 4: big sale off. The digital asset treasury company said it

97
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 4: built more bitcoin one billion worth of bitcoin at the

98
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 4: start of December, the largest acquisition since July. The tickers MSTR.

99
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 4: The stock is down sixty percent from its peaking in October.

100
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,799
Speaker 4: Really tough period. Just to give you an example, investors

101
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 4: were really happy to pay premium. They were paying two

102
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 4: point five times premium for its bitcoin holdings, and that

103
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 4: premium has almost disappeared. It's about one point one now.

104
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 4: But at some point they were saying that they will

105
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 4: start selling. But we're seeing the opposite trend. They're buying

106
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 4: more more bitcoin despite that premium.

107
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 3: Sharp. Please, is it not just creating demand for your

108
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 3: own product? I guess so. I guess it stops working, right,

109
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 3: this is the pond point. It starts working.

110
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 4: Although they have created the reserve that's one point four billion.

111
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 4: But unless they are sawing on the store counterfeital are

112
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 4: could their price starreat by fifty last week.
