I'm Tom McKenzie with Caroline Hepker. We're 6 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 3: joined now by Bloomberg's equities reporter Joe Easton Joe WPB 7 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,479 Speaker 3: shares falling to the lowest level since two thousand and nine, 8 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,200 Speaker 3: Ouch Bad, Dave. 9 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 1: Wp Ouch and d Topp. As you say, we're down 10 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: sixteen percent on that stock at the moment. The company 11 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: based here in the UK cutting its out look for 12 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five after clients spent less than expected. They've 13 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: already worn of weakness in European spending, so particularly over 14 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,520 Speaker 1: in Germany, they had already worn a couple of months 15 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: ago that clients were cutting back. There's also the element 16 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: of the US which has kind of been something that's 17 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: gone on for the past few years with tech companies 18 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: have rained in their ad spending and that's only set 19 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: to get worse given the use of the AI coming 20 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 1: into the industry as well. So it's really a shocker 21 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: for the companies. You say, the stock training at the 22 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: lowest level since two thousand and nine. We're also seeing 23 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: a feed through into Peers Today's publicist over in France. 24 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 1: That one spooked a little bit down two percent, how 25 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,119 Speaker 1: US in Amsterdam falling close to three percent. Potentially, we're 26 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 1: going to see weakness and Omnicom over in the US 27 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: as well. So really a negative day for advertising stocks 28 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 1: following that WPP update. 29 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's really interesting, isn't it. The move in advertising 30 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 4: just away from TV into like AI generated advertising, influencer 31 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 4: generated advertising. It just is a new world. So yeah, 32 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 4: WPP really interesting. As they're looking for CEO, right, they're 33 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 4: still looking for the best. 34 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was part of the reason the stock dropped 35 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: earlier this year. It's kind of adding to those declines. 36 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: Uncertainty in the leadership as well. 37 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 3: Well. 38 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 4: Speaking of AI META investing billions in official intelligence glasses, 39 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 4: it's how a market's reacting. 40 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: Yes, this is a Bloomberg exclusive last night Meta. As 41 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: you say, buying that steak in the ray band make it, 42 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: it's going to be three percent worth around three billion dollars. Potentially, 43 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: that's going to increase to five percent. According to people 44 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 1: familiar with the matter, and it's all about those meta 45 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: ray bands. Now. The latest version of the meta ray bands, 46 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: the second generation, already sold around two million units. It 47 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: is really a growth area. I tend to just see 48 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 1: them on TikTok where people go up to people in 49 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: the street and talk to them. Then you think, how 50 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: are they filming? And it's always via these ray band metas. 51 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 1: But I'm sure there are more. 52 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,399 Speaker 4: Positive Yeah, I know a number of people who want 53 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 4: to buy them, and I have yeah. 54 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, because somebody's looking at you. They might look like 55 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: normal sunglasses. But anyway, it's it's a boom area. And 56 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: that's doc Esseloor is up five percent in Paris. 57 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 3: To the little bit creeped out by it, aren't you? 58 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: John, I'm a little bit creaked out because you talk 59 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: to somebody and you think they're just wearing a nice 60 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: pair of ray. 61 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 4: Bands, and then they're But then the one thing that 62 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 4: not to get creeped out over is that if you 63 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 4: if you go to any events where you have to 64 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 4: put your phone away because you know there are celebrities whatever, 65 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 4: maybe doing concerts or shows, then if you wear a 66 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 4: pair of raybuns, you get to do that celebrity I got. 67 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 1: Everyone holding their phone up at a contra positive a 68 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: positive angle. 69 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 3: Absolutely, I don't know how to pivot from meta and 70 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:28,799 Speaker 3: voyeurism to farmer stocks on edge. I'm would come out 71 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 3: over in a yes, two tariffs on farmer stocks, how 72 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 3: are they going to weather that? 73 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: So now this is Trump's comments Trump last night saying 74 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: that they could potentially do as to mention a two 75 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: hundred percent tariff, but he's kind of saying that they 76 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: might wait a year or two, might wait a little 77 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: bit before they do this. It sounds like he's kind 78 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: of position and trying to kind of get his heaviest 79 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: kind of comments on that into the market and then 80 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: see how people react in terms of pricing. But we 81 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: are seeing a bit of a feed through into the 82 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: market nonetheless, and no over Notice was down one point 83 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: seven percent, so Offee one point three percent, Roach, Nevatis, 84 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: all of them slipping around one percent, because potentially it 85 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,119 Speaker 1: just adds to the worries that tariffs on pharmaceuticals could 86 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: eventually come through in some form, and therefore people not 87 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: ignoring the headlines but kind of not selling off those 88 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: docks as sharply as the initial headline suggestive. 89 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 2: The Stock Movers podcast from Bloomberg Radio.
