00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio News.

2
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 2: The Stock Movers report, your roundup of companies making moves

3
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:16,480
Speaker 2: in the stock market, harnessing the power of Bloomberg Data.

4
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: I'm Carol Masser along with Tims Jenevick. Let's take a

5
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: look at some stocks on the move this week. We're

6
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:25,320
Speaker 1: joined by Bloomberg cross At reporter Isabelle Lee. So god,

7
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: there was so much coming at.

8
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 3: Us this week, so much, but we have to talk

9
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 3: about Intel. The stock is up more than twenty percent

10
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 3: this week, so optimism was just really everywhere after Nvidia

11
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:37,479
Speaker 3: agreed to invest around five billion dollars in Intel, and

12
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 3: they said that both of them will code develop chips

13
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 3: for PCs and data centers. So this is a surprise

14
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 3: move from Nvidio because they're really helping an ailing arch rival,

15
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,240
Speaker 3: and of course you can imagine Intel Intel shares just jumping.

16
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,160
Speaker 3: So Intel said it will use in Video's graphics technology

17
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 3: in upcoming PC chips and provide processors for data centers.

18
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 3: So the agreement is expected to help both of them

19
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 3: because of course both of them can't really reached the

20
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 3: entire market, but it will help them reach markets that

21
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 3: they haven't reached.

22
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 4: Just yet.

23
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 3: And again, I think this just really speaks to invidious power.

24
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: It's like one of those moments you complete me.

25
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 4: Yes, Video is saying to Intel you complete me. Jerry

26
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 4: Maguire help saying to Video you complete me.

27
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 2: Yes.

28
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 3: That's what marriage is supposed to be, I guess, or

29
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 3: any kind of partnership. This isn't the different.

30
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 4: I have a different view on this. Oh yeah, It's

31
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 4: like it's a very savvy move by in Video. I think,

32
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 4: you know, think about who one of the largest owners

33
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 4: of Intel is right now, it's the US government. What

34
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,479
Speaker 4: happens if in Nvidia makes this commitment, a five billion

35
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 4: dollar commitment to this company. I like, this guts up,

36
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 4: it does sense. But I will say, to push back

37
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 4: on my own comment, we spoke to Ed Ludlow all

38
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 4: about this at one point this week, and he had

39
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 4: spoken and heard from Jensen Wong and Bhutan and uh.

40
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 4: The the story is that this was in this this

41
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 4: was into discussions before the US even took the stake.

42
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 4: So it's like you said, it's strange, bedfellows, but.

43
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 3: It's right, and it's a pragmatic approach by Intel to

44
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 3: just really go along with it. But also just is

45
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 3: a show of force on how Nvidia can really dictate

46
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 3: what goes on in the industry based on their sheer size.

47
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: No, it's a really good point. It's like it almost

48
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: feels like all roads lead back to Nvidia in so

49
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: many different ways, all right, from Intel to another tech

50
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: name that I feel like has been on our radar

51
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks, but then like late Friday

52
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 1: really came on our radar.

53
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 4: That's Oracle.

54
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 3: Ticker is ourcl So it's up five percent for the week,

55
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 3: but the boost was really on Friday, and the stock

56
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,239
Speaker 3: was up on Friday four percent. So Oracle is said

57
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 3: to be in talx with Meta for a cloud computing

58
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 3: deal worth around twenty billion dollars. So under this multi

59
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,679
Speaker 3: year deal, Oracle would be providing Meta with computer computing

60
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 3: power for training and deploying AI models. That's according to

61
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 3: people familiar with the matter. So the total commitment amount

62
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,679
Speaker 3: may increase, of course, but it's not final yet. But

63
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 3: the contract would add to a series of wins for Oracle,

64
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 3: and it's generally cloud computing business. So last week we

65
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 3: know that Oracle reported huge increase in bookings, and of

66
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 3: course that push it push it stocked on all time

67
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 3: high and made Larry Ellison for a brief moment the

68
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 3: richest person.

69
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 4: Honors Elon's backup on top.

70
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 3: I know, I know, it's just really staggering when I

71
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 3: imagine their wealth, But that's another story.

72
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 4: I think even though he's the second, I think he's okay.

73
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 4: I think Larry's he's okay.

74
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: Damn.

75
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 3: Even if you're in the one hundredth list, even in

76
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 3: your one thousand, I think that's okay.

77
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 4: Okay, thank you for that clarification.

78
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: It's kind of wild, you know. I took a look

79
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: at Oracle because, like we've talked about what a run

80
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: as had year to date here, but if you go

81
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: back to kind of the middle late portion of April,

82
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: stock is up one hundred and fifty one.

83
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 4: Pretty sent Yeah.

84
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I feel like we've been talking about Oracle

85
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: so much and how it's really been, you know, working

86
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: on beefing up its AI cloud business.

87
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 4: Listen, if you're the richest or the second richest person

88
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 4: in the world, you can afford a lot of all

89
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 4: you can eat breadsticks from Olive Garden. I love this

90
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 4: seg Are they all you can eat?

91
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 3: I don't know.

92
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 4: Only I take salad and I have.

93
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: To say when my dad, he used to love this

94
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: in his older age because I think you can get

95
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: all the salad you want, the breadsticks. It was really

96
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: sweet and had soup and I don't know, it was kind.

97
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 4: Of a fall.

98
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 3: So the stock we're talking about is Darden Restaurants. Take

99
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 3: our dri I and I picked this because it's down

100
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,799
Speaker 3: for the week, it's down twelve percent. So Darden Restaurants

101
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 3: reported disappointing first quarter fiscal results on Thursday, So this

102
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 3: prompted a slew of analysts to really just slash their

103
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 3: price targets, from Barclays to Bairds. So Darden owns one

104
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 3: of the fan faded restaurants like Olive Garden. I've been

105
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 3: to one and Longhorn. I haven't been to one. Have

106
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 3: you guys been to.

107
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 4: I've never been to Longhorn. Olive Garden absolutely.

108
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally wall.

109
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 3: Is there an Olive Garden in New York? I don't

110
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 3: think I was in New York when I.

111
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 4: I have not been to one in New York. Yeah,

112
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 4: they're used. I believe there used to be. I don't know.

113
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 4: I'm not even gonna say it. I don't want to

114
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 4: get it wrong.

115
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: Okay, I just have to tell you they used to

116
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: have this meal was like the tour of Italy, and

117
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: I think it was like a little bit of either

118
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 1: eight plant palm and a little maybe a little I'm

119
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: getting hungry cat get like three like different things.

120
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 3: Okay, I was all it that sounds yummy, because I'm

121
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 3: glad you brought that up. Because one of the news

122
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 3: that came out was also that all of Garden will

123
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 3: have smaller portioned, lower priced entrees, and of course that

124
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 3: reflects broader shift and dining. Millions of Americans are taking

125
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 3: weight loss drugs and also just really not going out

126
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 3: to eat because it's expensive. But I like this because

127
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 3: I always tell my husband sometimes I wish restaurants would

128
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 3: offer half a portion, even if they make it more expensive,

129
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 3: like let's say a whole dish is twenty dollars, and

130
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 3: if half a twelve dollars, I'd still take it because

131
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 3: more than spending twenty dollars, it's I just feel like

132
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 3: I'm wasting so much treat.

133
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: You take it home, you take it off the forest,

134
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 1: and the next day or a little puppy gets up.

135
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 4: I like it because then you know, when my wife

136
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 4: doesn't finish the food. She just sees me staring at it,

137
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 4: and she just pushes you are it's like human, like

138
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 4: a human garbage disposal. That's what you can.

139
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 3: That's good I get. I think the So it happens

140
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 3: with when you have little kids too. They say, yeah, right,

141
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 3: interested everything.

142
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: Darton, as you said, down thirteen percent this week, So

143
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 1: a little bit of a bummer. You are always a pleasure.
