We're joined 6 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:24,440 Speaker 2: by Bloomberg's Isabelle Lee. 7 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: Isabel, what are you looking at today? 8 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 3: We have to start with power firm AES. We have 9 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 3: shares storing around seventeen percent. Ticker is AES. 10 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 1: SO. 11 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 3: The company's exploring options, including a potential sales sources told 12 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 3: Bloomberg so As provides power detech giants like Microsoft, Amazon 13 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 3: and Google, and investors including Brookfield and Black Blackrock have 14 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 3: been setting as after the company shares really lost about 15 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,480 Speaker 3: half of their value in two years, and of course 16 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 3: that comes as Trump has put in place anti renewable policies. 17 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: So here's the catch. AS has an enterprise. 18 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 3: Value of forty billion dollars, so even a leverage buyout 19 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 3: would rank it among the biggest of all time. 20 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: So investors are definitely excited about that. 21 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 3: It's about Earlier on TV, I heard you saying that 22 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 3: you are a fan of Starbucks and that's one of 23 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 3: the stocks that you're looking out at Starbucks. I do 24 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 3: love Starbucks because it tastes the same all over the world. 25 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 3: So if I order a cafemoca here, it tastes the 26 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 3: same as back home in the Philippines, cittes. 27 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: Okay, I just like that about the stock. 28 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 3: So s Bus sbuxs up five tens of one percent. 29 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 3: So the company's receiving proposals from potential investors in China business. 30 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 3: According to again people familiar with the matter, and most 31 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 3: of them are eyeing a potential controlling stake. So China 32 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 3: is the second biggest market of Starbucks, and Bloomberg first 33 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 3: supported and made that it's kicking off a review process 34 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 3: if it's China business, which has been struggling as really 35 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 3: a lackluster economy and really rivals grow. So now Starbucks 36 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 3: in the process of sifting through those proposals and soft 37 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 3: shortlisting options. So this was at starbucks preferred option. Of course, 38 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 3: they just wanted a minority state partner that could help 39 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 3: them return to growth. 40 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: But here we are. 41 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 3: So a fun fact, Starbucks has been trying to attract 42 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 3: local customers to introduce some more sugar free options and 43 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 3: really slashing tea beverages. A lot of Asians like to 44 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 3: drink tea, although we're not generalizing here. 45 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: Hold it. But if you're in the Philippines, it's I 46 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: understand it's a little warm there.

I think shares are edging 58 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 3: higher by almost two percent, so they're the first company 59 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 3: to achieve a four trillion dollar market cap, really just 60 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 3: cementing its status as the leader in this space, the 61 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 3: leisure leader in the global market. So shares jump around 62 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 3: two point in earlier and that was what brought in 63 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 3: Nvidia to crack the milestone.
