Speaker 3: Markets Live blog and what do you look? What were

7
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 3: you looking at today? What were the movers that go well?

8
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,319
Speaker 1: Well, David, we had some big moves post market for

9
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 1: Oracle because we did just get them reporting after the

10
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: malso Oracle ticker o RCL. Biginins in the post market,

11
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 1: up seven percent, run seven percent, and a big beat

12
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: on that. Four quarter adjusted revenue that came in at

13
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 1: fifteen point nine billion in the estimate was fifteen point

14
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: six billion, but that's actually an eleven percent increase from

15
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: a year earlier. Cloud services and license support revenue also

16
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: a standout, gained their eleven point seven billion, which is

17
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: a fourteen percent increase from year and year, and the

18
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: forward heightens from the company also looking very optimistic. They're

19
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: seeing fiscal year twenty twenty six for total cloud growth

20
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,320
Speaker 1: over forty percent. In terms of that growth rate, so

21
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,960
Speaker 1: oracill CEO Saffracats, saying that twenty twenty six will be

22
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: an even better year for them.

23
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 3: Struck by the optimism of this report. I mean, there's

24
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 3: been so much uncertainty and negativism here to see a

25
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 3: report where despite all of the uncertainty surrounding trade and

26
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 3: the like, this is a company that's optimistic.

27
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 4: We're seeing a pop year. We're really seeing a pop here.

28
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 4: We can't shares her up about five point eight percent

29
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 4: year to date, and it's just really as we're looking

30
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 4: at the broader tech sector and the performance there, it's

31
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 4: really interesting to see this forward guide that is positive

32
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 4: and optimistic for street estimates. But there is a name

33
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 4: in the red that you're looking at, and that's the

34
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 4: FEDS sector. I know, you know we have to talk

35
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 4: about the names in the red two and the decliners.

36
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly.

37
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: So that's lockeed Martin take her LMT and in the

38
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: regular training session, that's one of the biggest decliners on

39
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: the index. Today, shares down more than four percent, and

40
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: that is because of the developments regarding the Air Force

41
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: and its orders for the signature F thirty fives that

42
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,559
Speaker 1: Lockheed is known for. The Air Force cutting its ordered

43
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 1: down by half. It's now just ordering twenty four planes

44
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,839
Speaker 1: instead of the forty eight that was forecast last year.

45
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: The Air Force Corse is the biggest customer for Lockheed.

46
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: And you know, those cuts really reflecting the efforts by

47
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 1: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to reduce projected military spending by

48
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 1: eight percent over the next five years.

49
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was up on Capitol Hill today talking a

50
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 3: lot about the cuts that he's identified that doughe is

51
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 3: identified in the Pentagon budget. We're still talking about a

52
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 3: fraction of this massive, almost trillion dollar budget. But what

53
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 3: we're seeing with Lockheed today certainly highlighting the fact that

54
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 3: this is an administration and a Pentagon that is willing

55
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 3: to take a second look at some programs that have

56
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 3: been the beneficiary of a lot of government investment and

57
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 3: spending for for a long time. Let's go back to

58
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 3: the green, another company that did well.

59
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 2: Exactly, We'll get out of the red into the green exactly.

60
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I figured i'd give you the sandwich method today.

61
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: So let's finish off with a stock in the green

62
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 1: and regular trading. That is Starbus Sticker SPUX. So that

63
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: was up more than four percent in regular trading, and

64
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: that was after The Financial Times published an interview with

65
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: CEO Brian Nicol, who was saying that a Starbucks is

66
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: looking at a possible sale of a steak in its

67
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: China business and that has drawn quote a lot of interest.

68
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: So apparently Starbucks is searching for a partner and interested

69
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: in expanding to chain in China. So they currently have

70
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: around eight thousand stores. They're looking at an expansion to

71
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: twenty thousand stores, so more than double. But he did

72
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: also say that they're in a rush for a deal

73
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: and they want to maintain a quote meaningful steak in

74
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: the operation.

75
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 4: And while stock is on about four and a half

76
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 4: percent so far this year, CEO Brian Nichol has really

77
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 4: been trying to do a turnaround story here for Starbucks

78
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 4: to trying to increase foot traffic. And I was browsing

79
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 4: today and I saw that apparently they're launching a protein drink.

80
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: That's right, Yeah, so Stig's protein drink catering to the

81
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: gym bunnies out there, right, yeah, yeah, because you need

82
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: your protein and your caffeine. Get it all the starbus.

83
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 4: Would you guys try it?

84
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 3: I would maybe try it once. I'd be sold on more.

85
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 3: I would be like seeking it out. But this is

86
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 3: a company that, like Howard Schultz, continues to loom large.

87
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 3: Brian Nichols, again, you've said trying to do this turnaround.

88
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 3: How difficult does that likely to be for this company?

89
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 1: I mean, it really is very much dependent on consumer

90
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: attitudes and sentiment, right, I mean, especially in the US

91
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: that's a little bit more unpredictable. But you can see

92
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 1: that the company is really trying to leverage and its

93
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: presence outside of the US. China has been a real

94
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,359
Speaker 1: focal point for them. They're also, you know, doing a

95
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: lot of other things like increasing their tea based offerings.

96
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 1: We heard about that and you know over the past week.

97
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 1: So that's something that they're really trying to do to

98
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 1: be able to compete more internationally, perhaps as a response

99
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: to maybe a little bit more uncertain a picture Back
