1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:09,719 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts Radio News. 2 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 2: This is a closing bell on the Stock Movers podcast 3 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 2: the companies making moves at the close of US trading 4 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 2: with Carol Mass, Tim Stenoback, Romain Bostik, and Scarlett Food. 5 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 3: Let's get to the number one gainer in the S 6 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 3: and P five hundred. We're talking about Energy Energy Man. 7 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 3: That name is up about twenty six percent, so pretty 8 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 3: much holding on to all of its gains of the day. 9 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 3: This is after agreeing to acquire the net gas fired 10 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 3: powered assets from Ellis Power Equity Advisors. That was about 11 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 3: a twelve billion dollars deal including debt, so really some 12 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 3: outperformance there. Microchip. We saw the semiconductor space up overall, 13 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 3: but Microchip up about ten percent. Here also a top 14 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 3: gainer in the NASDAQ one hundred, City raising the firm's 15 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 3: price target on Microchip to fifty five from fifty and 16 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 3: keeping a buy rating on the share, saying the company 17 00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 3: posted a decent quarter but guided revenue up eight percent 18 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 3: quarter zero over quarterba's the highest revenue growth in this sector. Again, 19 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 3: the analyst over at City putting out a note Apple 20 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 3: I mentioned the mag seven as a whole rallying in 21 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 3: today's session, Apple up about six percent. This is after 22 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 3: the Wall Street Journal came out and said the companies 23 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 3: considering raising iPhone prices, so that was certainly a catalyst, 24 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 3: and Shopify just had to mention up almost fourteen percent. 25 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 3: This is after the NASDAK announced late Friday after the 26 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 3: close that the company would replace Mango dB in the 27 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 3: Nasdaq one hundred prior to market open on May nineteenth. 28 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 3: So a bunch of gainers here. Over to Matthew Miller. 29 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 4: I'm looking at the losers today, and for much of 30 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 4: the day, Newmont Mining was at the bottom of the 31 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 4: list of the S and P five hundred. I don't 32 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 4: think it closed as the biggest loser, but with Gold 33 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 4: down in the last three trading sessions about two hundred dollars, 34 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 4: you could see why Newmont would sell off. Signa and 35 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 4: CBS are both owners of PBM's pharmacy benefit Managers, which 36 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 4: means they are the middleman that Donald Trump was talking 37 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 4: about this morning. He said he wants to cut out 38 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 4: the drug industry middleman as a way to reduce drug costs, 39 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 4: and as a result, those shares getting sold off pretty hard. 40 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 4: They were at varying points signa certainly the biggest loser 41 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 4: of the day on the S and P five hundred 42 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 4: and then Kroger I saw it was a big loser today. 43 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 4: In fact, the grocer sold off the most in two 44 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 4: years at one point. Today they don't own a PBM anymore. 45 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 4: They have in the past owned their own PBM and 46 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 4: partnered up with PBM. You can still get pharmacceuticals at Kroger. 47 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 4: They still have a pharmacy there. But in general, President 48 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 4: Trump has been talking about bringing down the price of groceries, 49 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,119 Speaker 4: and I love the way he says that groceries and 50 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 4: Kroger was not a beneficiary of that today. 51 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 5: How does one otherwise say it? 52 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 4: He just enunciates each and every syllable groceries, and I 53 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 4: just appreciate it. I don't know if it's a New 54 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 4: York thing. Is that a normal thing for New yorkers? 55 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 3: Groceries groceries? 56 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,079 Speaker 5: I don't know, I say groceries. I grew up in 57 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 5: New York. Anyway, AnyWho, to the ball market we go. 58 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 5: You're seeing it sell off pretty. 59 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 4: Much all across the curve. 60 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 5: That two year yield is up by eleven basis points, 61 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 5: closing right at that four percent level. Here's kind of 62 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 5: the why is we re rate the FED cuts. You're 63 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 5: looking at swaps tracking the upcoming Central Bank meeting showing 64 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 5: just fifty six basis points of easing by December, and 65 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 5: that's down a whopping seventy five basis points from last week. 66 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 5: So we've taken out about almost one full cut. But again, 67 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 5: it all feels like it's TBD. That front end is 68 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 5: very much where all the whippy action is going to be, guys, 69 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 5: And this gets. 70 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,679 Speaker 1: So an idea whether the market rally, the equity market 71 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: rally is also a bit of TVD. We talk about 72 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: this idea of a new bowl market sort of taking 73 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: a foot at least for the Nasdaq one hundred. And 74 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: you look at what rose today, a seven percent gain 75 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: in the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index. But at the same time 76 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: you had that seven percent gain in now Transport, So 77 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: you had a lot of sectors today that at least 78 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: invest in the eyes of investors, seem to be getting 79 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: more of a long term reprieve, whether it's chip stocks, 80 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: whether it's in the travel space or in the consumer 81 00:03:58,640 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: durable space. 82 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 6: Absolutely, there's there's still a lot of uncertainty. Right I 83 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 6: was thinking about what David Bonson just told alex and 84 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 6: Romain about how before when you had one hundred and 85 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 6: forty five percent tariffs on Chinese imports, that was basically 86 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 6: a trade embargo. Now you have some trade, it's not 87 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 6: back to what it was. So something is better than nothing, 88 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 6: but there's still a lot of question marks, and it's 89 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 6: not like companies are going to be rushing to offer 90 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 6: new updated guidance. 91 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 4: Yeah. 92 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 3: Well, in terms of guidance, we're going to get some 93 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 3: reads on inflation this week's CPI and PPI, and so 94 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 3: we'll see whether or not the Fed's going to be 95 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 3: in a little bit of a trickier situation because even 96 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 3: if the tariffs aren't as onerous as it seems to 97 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 3: be going, especially when we look at what's going on 98 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 3: between US and China, we are going to be in 99 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 3: a higher tariff environment. And so what does that mean 100 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 3: overall for inflation longer term. 101 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: I'm just curious though, too. I mean, we're also going 102 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: to get some earnings reports this week, including from Walmart. 103 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 1: I think we get a lot more in terms of 104 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: the retail space the following week, but you do get 105 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: some companies that are going to have some insights into 106 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: what's going on with trade and whether they were impacted 107 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: like a Walmart, like a Cisco, and a few others 108 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: said I'm forgetting I think Berkinstacken's and they're oh dear, 109 00:04:59,000 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: that's the one. 110 00:04:59,360 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 6: I was thinking up. 111 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 2: Welcome the Stockmovers podcast from Bloomberg Radio.
