00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:07,000

Speaker 2: The Stock Movers Report, your roundup of companies making moves

3
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 2: in the stock market. Harnessing the power of Bloomberg Data.

4
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: Let's take a look at some stocks on the move today.

5
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:23,080
Speaker 1: I'm Nathan Hager, joined by Bloomberg's Valerie Tittel. Valerie, good morning.

6
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: Let's talk about what's going on with Boeing. Looks like

7
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 1: the planemakers looking to get some deals done this week.

8
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 3: And it could be a huge deal, as the US

9
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 3: Ambassador to China, David Purdue has said.

10
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 2: But yes.

11
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 3: Boeing shares up nearly three percent so far in pre

12
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,520
Speaker 3: market trade. This comes after some news that the US

13
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 3: and China are in a final stages of negotiation for

14
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 3: a huge Boeing aircraft order. This is coming from the

15
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,200
Speaker 3: US Ambassador to China, David Purdue, saying that the deal

16
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 3: is very important to the President and very important to China.

17
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:56,639
Speaker 2: Now.

18
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 3: Boeing has been working towards this deal with China to

19
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 3: sell as many as five hundred aircraft, and a transaction

20
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 3: that would end a sales drought that stretches all the

21
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 3: way back to US President Donald Trump's last visit to

22
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 3: China in twenty seventeen, but perhaps after the TikTok deals

23
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 3: just another sign of thawing frosty ties between Trump and

24
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 3: g in the world's two largest economies.

25
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: And this is fascinating. Valerie, We got to talk about

26
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: tailanyl maker ken View after the announcement from the White House.

27
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: That stock is getting quite a bit this morning.

28
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: It is.

29
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 3: It's up nearly six percent so far yesterday, so far

30
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 3: today in pre market. No, yesterday the stock hit a

31
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 3: record low at the close, down over seven percent. Ken

32
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 3: View is the maker of tailanol, and it fell yesterday

33
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 3: on reports that Trump administration what's going to link its

34
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 3: use in pregnancy to autism. But it does seem investor

35
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 3: fears in yesterday's move. We're now overdone given there's no

36
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: new evidence that was presented by the White House. City

37
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 3: analysts actually noting the lack of new evidence and the

38
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 3: limited judicial risk following the announcement by the President means

39
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 3: that perhaps there is some upside risk in the stock,

40
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 3: and we are seeing it this morning with ken Do

41
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 3: you erasing much of its loss yesterday?

42
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're seeing that as the biggest upside mover in

43
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: the pre market this morning, and the biggest downside mover

44
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: Firefly Aerospace.

45
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, this one's an interesting one. This is a

46
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 3: space and defense technology company. It's down near eleven percent

47
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 3: in pre market trade. It ipoed back in August, and

48
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 3: it was its first earnings release. Last night, it gave

49
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:39,519
Speaker 3: an underwhelming revenue number and it's now trading below its

50
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 3: IPO price of forty five dollars a share, trading at

51
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 3: forty four to twenty now. Firefly focuses on small rocket

52
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 3: launchers for satellites and lunar missions. And you might remember

53
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 3: it from back in March when it landed a privately

54
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 3: developed spacecraft on the Moon in partnership with NASA. But

55
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 3: it's looking like it's revenue numbers that they stated yesterday

56
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 3: just aren't impressing investors at the moment. So Firefly trading

57
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 3: below its IPO price, down eleven percent.

58
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: And finally, Valerie, maybe we need to do a little

59
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: bit of a meme stock check here. What's going on

60
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: with Better Home and Finance?

61
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 3: A little bit of frenzy, shall I say? The stock

62
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 3: soared in the session as much as one hundred and

63
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 3: seventy five percent yesterday, it's up twenty eight percent again today.

64
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 3: This all has to do with Eric Jackson, who said

65
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 3: his hedge fund had bet on the stock. Now, Eric

66
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:34,239
Speaker 3: Jackson was the same man who sparked the retail driven

67
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 3: rally in open Door a few months ago. Now this stock,

68
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 3: Better Home and Finance, is an online mortgage company. He

69
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 3: posted on x and a series of posts that the

70
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 3: stock could rise three hundred and fifty times. Part of

71
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 3: his bullish rationale was that the AI efforts led by

72
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 3: Better will let it scale lending dramatically while keeping headcount low.

73
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 3: So there's still a frenzy around the stock. This morning,

74
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 3: Better Home and Finance of twenty six months.
