Speaker 1: been a dreadful a couple of weeks in retail land.

28
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: Most companies have had significant earnings misses um and so

29
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: I think the idea that you have a company here

30
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: that's doing okay now, earnings were still down here over here,

31
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,920

Speaker 1: Musicologists joins us now to kick off our movers and shakers.

85
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 1: You know, when companies decide to get together and they

86
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 1: refer to the deal as a merger, you know a

87
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: lot of times there is effectively a buyer and a seller.

88
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: And I'm bringing this up because we had a deal

89
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,840
Speaker 1: today in the oil services business, f MC Technologies agreeing

90
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: to merge with its French pier Technic in an all

91
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 1: stock deal. It's valued at about thirteen billion dollars. Now

92
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: FMC shareholders are gonna get one share in the new

93
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: company for every share they already own. It's really in

94
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: the Chase they're holding any and then you have Technic,

95
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: which is a two for one ratio, and effectively, if

96
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 1: you look at the way the shares performed today, investors

97
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 1: are treating FMC Technologies as the buy or, even though

98
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 1: each company is going to own about half of the

99
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 1: combined company. I bring this up. FMC Technology is falling

100
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 1: four point seven percent today, and Technique, which trades over

101
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: the counter here in the US, with a gain of

102
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: five point eight percent in response to their deal. Retail

103
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 1: it has been doom and gloom until today. Walmart, of course,

104
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: uh exceeding analysts estimates on earnings, but some other very

105
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: prominent retailers doing very well, including American Eagle, Urban Outfitters.

106
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: Peri ellis, we've got American Eagle closing up eighteen percent,

107
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: Urban Outfitters up thirteen percent. Perrealis also up thirteen percent.

108
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: Air American Eagle beat their earnings estimate, Urban Outfitters posting

109
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: same store sales dress that was stronger than expected. Perrealists

110
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: also beating the earnings estimates. In era American Eagles case

111
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: in particular, they're capitalizing on demand for denim and bohemian fashions.

112
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 1: I guess pim. Maybe that's the rest of the apparel

113
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: industry has got to get on board. Perhaps, well, they're

114
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 1: not going to get on board if they're going to

115
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 1: take all those lu jeans on trucks right now because

116
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: a couple of truck makers shares falling today, Commons down

117
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: to and a quarter percent, a Packard down more than

118
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: three and a quarter percent. This comes after Diamler Trucks

119
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: says that the global truck market has worsened in recent

120
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: weeks and that there is no revival on orders received,

121
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: particularly in the North American market. It says that European

122
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: demand is significantly higher, however, competition more intense, and that

123
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: that they see demand, for example in Brazil down about

124
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: twenty percent, and that is what's sent the shares of

125
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: the peer group of Packard down three and a half

126
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: percent right now, and Commons closing out the day down

127
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: too and a quarter percent. Let's stick with the deal

128
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: theme and talk about Mount Santa. You know, last week

129
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: we reported the Germany's buyer or if you prefer Bear,

130
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: was looking at making an offer for the seed and

131
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: pest side company, and sure enough they have done so.

132
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: Now we don't know the terms of the deal. We

133
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: do know that Monsanto after today is valued at about

134
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: forty four billion dollars, So you get some idea of

135
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: how big a transaction we might be talking about here.

136
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: Uh Monsanto's shares gaining three and a half percent in

137
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: today's trading in the wake of the offer. Is that

138
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: we don't know the terms yet. Buyer which trades here

139
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: in the US again over the counter, down seven points

140
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: seven percent, So sharehold is in that company not liking

141
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 1: the idea of coming together with Monsanto. Well, Uh, I

142
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: was just talked about some retailers that did well. Let's

143
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,559
Speaker 1: look at one that didn't do quite so well. That

144
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: would be l Brands down five percent to sixty dollars

145
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: and change at the close. Now you might be saying,

146
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: Who's hell Brands? Why do we care? Who? Well? Ever

147
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,199
Speaker 1: heard the name of Victoria's Secret? How about Bath and

148
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 1: Body Works? How about Henri Bendell and Moore? Uh, the

149
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: company did not do so well. It actually fell short

150
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: in terms of the earnings and and it cut it's

151
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:06,679
Speaker 1: a full year forecast. Um Boomberg Intelligence writing that they

152
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: are having uh some difficulties. Weakness in core Lingerie is

153
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,599
Speaker 1: alarming and calls into question whether L Brand's Inc. Is

154
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: at the beginning of a trend or just a blip.

155
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: While I can tell you just briefly about what's going

156
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,480

00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: r g S. It shares peak at forty six dollars

184
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: eighty eight cents and two thousand four and have traded

185
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,560
Speaker 1: on either side of fifteen dollars since US stocks began

186
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: their current bowl market in two thousand nine. Today, shares

187
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 1: of Regis dropped after the US Labor Department adopted new

188
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 1: rules on overtime pay. The agency more than double the

189
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: salary ceiling for employees to qualify four time and a

190
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: half if they worked more than forty hours a week.

191
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 1: The change led Piper Jeffrey to cut its rating on

192
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: Regis to the equivalent of self from neutral. Piper reversed

193
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: that call hours later after learning from the company that

194
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: story level managers weren't on salary. Now, Regis estimated the

195
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: rule may cost the company just five million dollars a year,

196
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: rather than the eighty one million the Piper projected. Even so,

197
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 1: Companies shares fell nine percent closed at their lowest price

198
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: since October, and during the day they were down as

199
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: much as nineteen and a half percent. In the wake

200
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:56,840
