- 1:02Speaker 1: a half percent year over year uh average hourly earning change,
- 1:06Speaker 1: which I believe is the most important number in that
- 1:08Speaker 1: report UM and has been for the last six or
- 1:11Speaker 1: seven months. Um, you know, there's nothing to get excited about.
- 1:15Speaker 1: But I don't think it's the end of the world either,
- 1:17Speaker 1: and I don't want to say it's a one off,
- 1:20Speaker 1: but I don't think this is the start of a trend. Well,
- 1:23Speaker 1: what are the implications then, in the jobs data for
- 1:26Speaker 1: the next FED meeting and the July meeting. Carl Rickadona
- 1:29Speaker 1: is chief US economist of Bloomberg Intelligence, also our guest
- 1:32Speaker 1: today right here on taking Stock. I think this drove
- 1:35Speaker 1: a stake through the heart of the June meeting. UH
- 1:38Speaker 1: and UH. The markets reflected that very abruptly after the report.
- 1:43Speaker 1: June rate high gods slipped to about four percent following
- 1:47Speaker 1: the disappointing news. I still think July is a realistic possibility,
- 1:52Speaker 1: but we need to see a pronounced rebound in a
- 1:55Speaker 1: range of economic data series, especially the June jobs report,
- 1:59Speaker 1: which is out in early July ahead of that July meeting.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Gold up today by thirty four dollars, the Ounce up

- 2:23Speaker 1: after delivering a blistering attack on rival Donald Trump, Hillary
- 2:27Speaker 1: Clinton is campaigning in California. She addressed a rally in
- 2:31Speaker 1: Culver City. I the end of working on that speech,
- 2:36Speaker 1: even I was saying, did he really say all of this? Well,
- 2:40Speaker 1: indeed he did. Mrs Clinton's just seventy delegates away from
- 2:44Speaker 1: clinting the Democratic nomination. At ford Hood, Texas, that search
- 2:48Speaker 1: for missing soldiers continues following yesterday's deadly accident. Officials say
- 2:53Speaker 1: a heavy vehicle overturned in a rain swollen creek at
- 2:56Speaker 1: the base, leaving five soldiers dead and four others missing.
- 3:00Speaker 1: At this point, we're just, you know, deeply saddened by
- 3:03Speaker 1: the by the loss of trooper. That's ford Hood spokeswoman
- 3:07Speaker 1: Lieutenant Colonel Sunset Blinsky, Defense secretary asked. Carter says the
- 3:11Speaker 1: military will attempt to learn from the ford Hood incident,
- 3:14Speaker 1: as well as the fatal crash yesterday of a Blue
- 3:16Speaker 1: Angels fighter jet near Nashville. Muhammad Ali's reported to be
- 3:20Speaker 1: in fair condition at a Phoenix area hospital, but the

- 3:27Speaker 1: his condition may be more serious than his previous hospital stays.
- 3:31Speaker 1: The seventy four year old boxing legend is said to
- 3:33Speaker 1: be fighting respiratory issues that are complicated by the Parkinson's
- 3:37Speaker 1: he was diagnosed with in the nineteen eighties. The m

- 3:44Speaker 1: could one day bring WiFi to cars in the city

- 3:55Speaker 1: powered by our two hundred journalists in more than one
- 3:58Speaker 1: hundred fifty news arose from around the world from the
- 4:01Speaker 1: Bloomberg Newsroom by Mark Crumpton, Charlie and we thank you.
- 4:06Speaker 1: In this headline to pass along to you from Alphabet,
- 4:08Speaker 1: the parent of Google, it says the head of Nest Labs,
- 4:10Speaker 1: Tony Fidel, is stepping down. He will advise Alphabet and
- 4:14Speaker 1: a CEO, Larry Page after leaving the company. Stocks lor
- 4:18Speaker 1: SMP five hundred index ending the week heading into the
- 4:21Speaker 1: weekend of two thousand ninety nine downs six points, a
- 4:24Speaker 1: drop today of three tenths of one percent down. Industrials
- 4:27Speaker 1: down thirty one points, pairing losses a dropped there of
- 4:30Speaker 1: two tenths of one percent. I'm Charlie Pellett, and that's
- 4:34Speaker 1: a Bloomberg business slash move around most great emotions. The
- 4:38Speaker 1: elite T move they do. I've never seen anyone move
- 4:44Speaker 1: that back card Peoplet's move like to get a purpose.
- 4:55Speaker 1: That he was called movers and shakers. They cost a
- 4:57Speaker 1: little more. That name cracked me up. Bloomberg taking stock
- 5:07Speaker 1: movers and shakers with Pim Fox and Kathleen As on
- 5:11Speaker 1: Bloomberg Radio. Movers and Shakers. Well, the big mover today
- 5:16Speaker 1: for the market, of course, was a week jobs report,
- 5:19Speaker 1: and as a result of the close, we see that
- 5:21Speaker 1: only a hundred and sixty four companies saw their share
- 5:23Speaker 1: price clothes higher today, three at thirty nine lower, two unchanged.
- 5:29Speaker 1: We're going to be joined now by our Stocks editor
- 5:32Speaker 1: Mike Reagan. As we look at movers and shakers, I
- 5:35Speaker 1: think we should just say a quick look though, at
- 5:37Speaker 1: Tony Fadell. You know this kind of the star of
- 5:40Speaker 1: the show, UH in the Internet of Things, Fear, the
- 5:44Speaker 1: founder of Nest acquired by Google. Now he's leaving Uh,
- 5:49Speaker 1: and of course he says he Uh was a guy
- 5:52Speaker 1: who's at the beginning of things. I don't like to
- 5:54Speaker 1: do maintenance mode. It's not what gets me out of bed.
- 5:56Speaker 1: That's a quote in New York Times story. But there
- 5:58Speaker 1: have been many articles lately describing a harsh corporate culture
- 6:02Speaker 1: at NESTS and embraces nous on his part that led
- 6:05Speaker 1: to resignations at NEST, I mean product development and led
- 6:10Speaker 1: to disappointing revenue growth. Interesting timing on that Friday afternoon
- 6:14Speaker 1: in the summer, after the market closes, it's always a
- 6:17Speaker 1: crazy time to release days. So what's moving to shaking
- 6:20Speaker 1: for you today? Mike Reagan, I wanted to tell you
- 6:21Speaker 1: about a really big move in a small stock. But
- 6:24Speaker 1: it's a very interesting story. Global Star. They're down about
- 6:27Speaker 1: fifty five to ninety four cents. They provide a mobile
- 6:31Speaker 1: phone and data service over satellite, and there was a
- 6:35Speaker 1: proposal made by the chairman of the FEC to allow
- 6:38Speaker 1: them to switch what they're providing over their spectrum to
- 6:43Speaker 1: more traditional mobile broadband servants services. And now there's questions
- 6:48Speaker 1: of whether the rest of the f SEC will actually
- 6:51Speaker 1: approve this. One of the commissioners is said to be
- 6:53Speaker 1: voting against it. And interesting story because some of the opponents,
- 6:58Speaker 1: as are companies like micros Off and Google again, who
- 7:02Speaker 1: have said in their filings that they're afraid it will
- 7:04Speaker 1: interfere with other mobile devices. So, uh, really major drop
- 7:08Speaker 1: for Global Start today. Of all right, you stole my
- 7:11Speaker 1: thunder a little bit because I've been following Global Star, Mike.
- 7:14Speaker 1: But I'm gonna tell you about Go Go sort of
- 7:16Speaker 1: in the same the same system. Here A Telecommunications shares
- 7:19Speaker 1: of a Go Go not a Go Go today down
- 7:22Speaker 1: more than sixteen percent. Uh. This is the biggest decline
- 7:26Speaker 1: in more than three months. American Airlines split an order
- 7:30Speaker 1: between Go Go and Viasat for in flights satellite based
- 7:34Speaker 1: internet service. The carrier selected bias has to provide service
- 7:38Speaker 1: on its new Boeing seven three seven Max fleet of
- 7:42Speaker 1: about a hundred jets, while choosing Go goes for the
- 7:45Speaker 1: new uh what they call two KU service that will
- 7:50Speaker 1: be for about a hundred and forty planes. Once again,
- 7:52Speaker 1: shares a Go Go down. Well. One that you can't
- 7:56Speaker 1: miss today, of course, is the drop in uh Banks.
- 7:59Speaker 1: We've Baga America and City Group just as a couple
- 8:03Speaker 1: of examples, down about three and a half percent each.
- 8:05Speaker 1: And it's a real easy story to tell. The Fed's
- 8:08Speaker 1: not going to raise rates because we've got a labor
- 8:10Speaker 1: marketing economy. This is as strong as they thought. You
- 8:12Speaker 1: aren't going to be able to get the benefit of
- 8:14Speaker 1: a boost in your net interest margins. But I want
- 8:16Speaker 1: to point something else out because you Mike Reagan wrote
- 8:20Speaker 1: one of the Gadflight columns yesterday about the FED getting
- 8:24Speaker 1: ready to get tougher on big banks when it comes
- 8:26Speaker 1: to stress tests. When it comes to capital requirements, FED
- 8:30Speaker 1: governors through a new a new known unknown. So I
- 8:33Speaker 1: think I recommend the story, but I think it's it's
- 8:35Speaker 1: you know, it's not just this week job support. If
- 8:37Speaker 1: the banks are gonna have to even more hold more capital,
- 8:39Speaker 1: that's not gonna be so hot for them either. Yeah,
- 8:41Speaker 1: especially that's mainly for the big eight, you know, the
- 8:44Speaker 1: globally significant banks, too big to fail banks. In other words,
- 8:49Speaker 1: looks like they're going to have to include these extra
- 8:52Speaker 1: capital buffers that the FED requires, are going to have
- 8:55Speaker 1: to include them in their stress tests, and that may
- 8:57Speaker 1: result of them actually having to raise even more capital
- 9:00Speaker 1: past the stress tests. So stressful. Time to be doing
- 9:02Speaker 1: stress tests on Wall Street small cap to look at. Yeah,
- 9:06Speaker 1: this is an interesting company line, Biotechnologies um, and there's
- 9:09Speaker 1: been an issue. My colleague on Gadfly, Max Needson, has
- 9:12Speaker 1: been writing about how some biotex have been having trouble
- 9:16Speaker 1: raising money in secondary stock offerings and line Biotet comes
- 9:21Speaker 1: out today and it's a small company working on various
- 9:23Speaker 1: cancer drugs. Uh. It comes out today and says they
- 9:27Speaker 1: were able to place a hundred million dollars in a
- 9:29Speaker 1: private placement. Stock goes crazy jumps. Alright, Well, time I'm
- 9:34Speaker 1: going to turn out to the Volatility Index Report, which
- 9:37Speaker 1: is brought to you by cbo E VIX Options and Futures.
- 9:40Speaker 1: Volatility can be harnessed with cbo VIX Options and Futures
- 9:43Speaker 1: CE disclosures. Learn more at cbo E dot com, Slash
- 9:47Speaker 1: Powerful Outcomes VIX. The VIX lower today and down two
- 9:52Speaker 1: point two pc. It's down point three oh, settling at
- 9:55Speaker 1: thirteen point three four and uh. Really every time in
- 9:59Speaker 1: the last four and a half years that the VIX
- 10:01Speaker 1: has touched what they describe as a rounded bottom, which
- 10:04Speaker 1: you've seen is a significant move to the upside. So
- 10:07Speaker 1: experience may say that the odds now favor a reversion
- 10:11Speaker 1: to the zero line, which means a rising VIX and
- 10:13Speaker 1: perhaps a falling stock market. I wanted to tell you
- 10:17Speaker 1: talk a little bit more about Signet Jewelers. Uh, this
- 10:20Speaker 1: is a really fascinating story. Uh these days the stocks
- 10:23Speaker 1: lost about eleven percent in two days. That's its biggest
- 10:26Speaker 1: drop in five years. This is the company that owns
- 10:29Speaker 1: some of the biggest jewelry chains out there, so K Jewelers, Zales,
- 10:33Speaker 1: Jared and one of the it's basically having two separate
- 10:36Speaker 1: problems that it's dealing with. One or started in April
- 10:40Speaker 1: with a report in BuzzFeed that basically said some customers
- 10:44Speaker 1: were complaining that when they would take their diamond in
- 10:47Speaker 1: to get serviced at one of these jewelry stores, it
- 10:50Speaker 1: would actually get swapped out for a lower quality diamond.
- 10:54Speaker 1: UM and the company's denying that, saying, you know, that's
- 10:58Speaker 1: not a systematic problem them. They're they're out with a
- 11:01Speaker 1: statement saying we're not you know, we're looking into that,
- 11:04Speaker 1: but of our service. Uh, customers have gotten their jewelry
- 11:10Speaker 1: back without a problem. But there's a bigger issue going on,
- 11:13Speaker 1: and it really started in February. Bloomberg's Greg Farrell started
- 11:17Speaker 1: reporting about this way back then, quoting a short seller
- 11:20Speaker 1: named Mark co Hodes, and what's going on. Is there
- 11:22Speaker 1: really questioning signets business model here there? These stores are
- 11:29Speaker 1: getting a lot of their sales through in store credit facilities.
- 11:32Speaker 1: In other words, they're extending credit to customers um and
- 11:36Speaker 1: people are questioning whether that's wise move. It makes them
- 11:38Speaker 1: a lot more risky. Uh, it makes them less of
- 11:41Speaker 1: retailer and more a finance company, especially at a time
- 11:44Speaker 1: when a lot of people are worried that the credit
- 11:46Speaker 1: cycle is turning. So two big problems for Signal right now.
- 11:50Speaker 1: Thanks very much, Pike Reagon. Always a pleasure. I have
- 11:52Speaker 1: a great weekend. Bloomberg Gadfly columnist Mike Regan, you're listening
