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

3
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 2: in the stock market, harnessing the power of Bloomberg data.

4
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: Well stock Movers, it's a podcast. Here is Lisa Mantail.

5
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 3: All right, I want to start with Constellation Brands. It's

6
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 3: Sticker Stz. Their shares have been down as much as

7
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 3: one percent before the bell A couple things, weaker demand

8
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 3: for alcohol, higher costs from aluminum tariffs, beer margins. They

9
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 3: were hit by the twenty five percent tariffs on imported aluminum.

10
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 3: Think of Modelo right, Corona Wines and spirits, labels like

11
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 3: Kim Crawford, Cosan, Noble Tequila. They had sales fall by

12
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,159
Speaker 3: twenty eight percent in the quarter. So the company said

13
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 3: they did a few things. They slowed shipments to kind

14
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 3: of deal with that week or demand. They also this

15
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 3: is interesting here, they also decided to pull back among

16
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 3: Hispanic consumers and they make up more than half of

17
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 3: Modello drinkers, which I thought was interesting because they have

18
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 3: concerned about inflation, immigration, job security. So what Consolation is

19
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,119
Speaker 3: trying to do. They're ramping up their marketing to non

20
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 3: hispatic audiences.

21
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 1: Is this. I don't mean to interrupt. So you know,

22
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: I was talking to Riley from Saint Louis. She's a

23
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: big fan and she she has the cute little girl cans.

24
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: They're in a refrigerator. Okay, what are they called?

25
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 3: The little spirits like the Selzer's Selzer's, Yes, that's it.

26
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: Are they that? What's really going on?

27
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 3: That's also people are drinking Selzer's and said, but they're

28
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 3: also drinking non more non alcoholic, especially the younger generation,

29
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 3: and they're turning to alternatives. Some are going to cannabis

30
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 3: infuse drinks too, instead of the alcohol altogether. And that's

31
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 3: a big trend. A lot of those alcohol companies that

32
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 3: have been switching to cannabis. I know, you got to

33
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 3: get on the train, you know.

34
00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: I'm remember Jack Daniels. Sure, how quaint jets.

35
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 3: Jack and Coke.

36
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 2: There you go.

37
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 3: Health insurer Senteen really taking a hit. Their shares have

38
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 3: been down as much as twenty seven percent. It's ticker

39
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 3: C and C. So the thing is they pulled their

40
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five guidance. They said it was due to

41
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 3: insurance market trends. It's threatening. It's one point eight billion

42
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 3: dollars in revenue. One particular thing they did mention is

43
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 3: the adjustment to compensate insurance for taking on seecret patments.

44
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 3: That actually fell short of what they expected, so that

45
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 3: was an issue. They also reported a step up in

46
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 3: Medicaid costs, and they said that's going to increase, you know,

47
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 3: their medical expenses in the second quarter. But this is

48
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 3: the second time we've seen this, right, a large insurer

49
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 3: pulling their forecast. Remember United Health with drew their guidance

50
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,839
Speaker 3: in May. Some analysts said, you know what, we saw

51
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 3: the writing on the wall with Centen. Jeffries said it

52
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 3: in an earlier note. You had Barclay's analysts who are

53
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 3: suggesting that this move suggests, you know, the Affordable Care

54
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 3: Act marketplace could spiral in twenty twenty six. But it's

55
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 3: also pushing shares of other health insurance like Evin's Health

56
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,519
Speaker 3: Oscar Health. They're also lower this morning too. On top

57
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 3: of that new more I do really quickly, I'm call

58
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 3: center software maker Barrant Warrant Yes take a vr NTVV

59
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,959
Speaker 3: yes V with the V yes take a VRNT. Their

60
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 3: shares are up nine percents, but yesterday they jumped as

61
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 3: much as sixteen percent. Bloomberg came out with the story,

62
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 3: reported that that buyo from Tomorrow Bravos and talks to

63
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 3: acquire the company, sources saying there's no certainty that this

64
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 3: will even happen, but both sides didn't say anything, but

65
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 3: the news does have those shares edging a little bit higher.

66
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 3: This morning, a Long Island company, Melville Yeah, Melville Yeah. Melville,
