- 1:26Speaker 1: director of Economic Indicator. She was interviewed today right here
- 1:29Speaker 1: on taking stock said sort of nothing gained, nothing lost,
- 1:32Speaker 1: I think is the theme this month. We did see
- 1:34Speaker 1: a little bit of an uptick in the present situation,
- 1:36Speaker 1: so we know that the economy continues checking along and
- 1:40Speaker 1: looking ahead. Consumers are cautiously optimistic, as they have been
- 1:44Speaker 1: now for quite some time under Armour's second quarter profit
- 1:47Speaker 1: fell fifty seven percent, hurt by the bankruptcy and liquidation

- 2:17Speaker 1: stories making news. Charlie, Thank you from the Bloomberg news room.
- 2:22Speaker 1: I'm Mark Crompton. President Obama will speak at the Democratic
- 2:25Speaker 1: National Convention tomorrow night. Bloomberg's Nathan Hager has more on
- 2:29Speaker 1: the story. Will the President make a pitch for d
- 2:32Speaker 1: C voting rights? It's something advocates have been waiting to hear,
- 2:35Speaker 1: but mostly in vain over the last seven and a
- 2:38Speaker 1: half years. The Washington Post reports President Obama has only
- 2:41Speaker 1: spoken out once in favor of DC statehood. That was
- 2:44Speaker 1: two years ago at a town hall event, when a
- 2:46Speaker 1: DC resident asked him about it. But statehood is in
- 2:49Speaker 1: the Democratic Party's platform for the first time in sixteen years,
- 2:53Speaker 1: and that has delegates holding out hope the President will
- 2:56Speaker 1: give it a mention when he takes the stage this week.
- 2:59Speaker 1: Nathan Hagar Oomberg Radio Washington. Republican nominee Donald Trump addressed
- 3:03Speaker 1: veterans at the National VIA W convention today in Charlotte,
- 3:07Speaker 1: North Carolina. He accused Hillary Clinton of being lax on
- 3:11Speaker 1: national security. We know how she takes care of the veterans.
- 3:15Speaker 1: Just look at her invasion of Libya and her handling
- 3:19Speaker 1: up Benghazi. A digester, Donald Trump's running mate Mike Pence
- 3:25Speaker 1: also spoke to the Veterans Group, praising his home state's
- 3:28Speaker 1: record when it comes to vets. Pence said Indiana has
- 3:31Speaker 1: the second lowest unemployment rate for veterans in the nation.
- 3:35Speaker 1: Police Commissioner Bill Bratton says the department has invested in
- 3:38Speaker 1: new equipment to help protect officers who respond to an
- 3:42Speaker 1: active shooter. Ratton says the money was allocated to the
- 3:45Speaker 1: NYPD eighteen months ago, but the city's putting a high
- 3:49Speaker 1: priority on getting the equipment to officers as soon as
- 3:52Speaker 1: possible in the wake of shootings in Dallas and Baton.
- 3:54Speaker 1: Rouge Global News twenty four hours a day, powered by
- 3:58Speaker 1: more than twenty hundred journalists and analysts in more than
- 4:01Speaker 1: one twenty countries. I'm Mark Crompton. This is Bloomberg, Charlie,

- 4:07Speaker 1: latest numbers from both Apple and Twitter. We did hear
- 4:10Speaker 1: from ACAM I second quarter adjusted EPs sixty four cents,
- 4:14Speaker 1: matching estimates of sixty four cents. I'm Charlie Pellett and
- 4:17Speaker 1: that's a Bloomberg business flash. Move around most greate promotion
- 4:22Speaker 1: at the elite move on, you move like they do
- 4:27Speaker 1: I've never seen anyone move that fast. Card people's move
- 4:34Speaker 1: like to get a purpose is called movers and shakers.
- 4:42Speaker 1: They cost a little more. That name cracked me up.
- 4:50Speaker 1: Bloomberg taking stock movers and Shakers with Pim Fox and
- 4:54Speaker 1: Kathleen As on Bloomberg Radio Movers and Shakers for Tuesday,
- 4:58Speaker 1: July the twenty twenty is sixteen taking a look at
- 5:02Speaker 1: the constituents of the SMP five hundred, three hundred and
- 5:05Speaker 1: eleven issues advanced, one hundred and ninety two issues declined
- 5:10Speaker 1: and to remain unchanged. Joining us in studio to begin
- 5:14Speaker 1: our movers and shakers is Bloomberg News Stocks reporter Joe
- 5:18Speaker 1: c o e Cho. Great to have you with us. Thanks. Uh.
- 5:21Speaker 1: First off, we have analog devices. This is a semiconductor
- 5:25Speaker 1: company that it was announced is in advanced talks to
- 5:28Speaker 1: acquire linear technology. UH. Analogs up about four percent, and
- 5:32Speaker 1: that was before it was halted on the news linear
- 5:35Speaker 1: technology the target was up about before it was also halted.
- 5:39Speaker 1: And um, and really this is a continuation of the
- 5:42Speaker 1: record pace of semiconductor consolidation that we saw in two
- 5:45Speaker 1: thousand fifteen and UM. Really what we're seeing is the
- 5:49Speaker 1: semi conductors across the market being lifted. The Philadelphia Semiconductor
- 5:54Speaker 1: Index upmost since January and also sitting at the highest
- 5:57Speaker 1: level since October two thousand. Well, casino stocks, if you
- 6:01Speaker 1: own some today, you might be pretty happy. After A
- 6:03Speaker 1: billionaire and casino tycoon Sheldon Adelson said he's optimistic recreational
- 6:09Speaker 1: gamblers and tourists are spurring a recovery in Macau's hard
- 6:13Speaker 1: hit casinos industry. And this came as Las Vegas Sands,
- 6:18Speaker 1: which where he is chairman, CEO and founder, reported mass
- 6:21Speaker 1: market gaming revenue in this Chinese city that it was
- 6:25Speaker 1: up in June for the first time in two years. Uh.
- 6:28Speaker 1: We saw Las Vegas Sands closing up nearly six percent
- 6:31Speaker 1: Win Macau. Uh the wind more broadly than Win resorts
- 6:35Speaker 1: also about six percent Galaxy Entertainment. And of course, just
- 6:39Speaker 1: a little bit of a note of caution, I guess
- 6:42Speaker 1: because we've seen castino casino stocks rally in the past
- 6:45Speaker 1: to retreat, but casino building boom going on right now.
- 6:50Speaker 1: PAM is one of the reasons why people say this
- 6:52Speaker 1: time it may be lasting. I'll tell you about the
- 6:54Speaker 1: share is a Verizon down about two percent today. This
- 6:57Speaker 1: comes after the largest US cell phone carry as profits
- 7:00Speaker 1: were hurt by a series of costs. One was that
- 7:03Speaker 1: seven weeks strike by around forty thousand employees that began
- 7:06Speaker 1: in April, and it was one of the largest strikes
- 7:08Speaker 1: by US workers in recent years. Of Verizons had to
- 7:11Speaker 1: cut into profits from its wireline business. Revenue fell five
- 7:16Speaker 1: percent once again, shares a Verizon down today two. Moving on,
- 7:22Speaker 1: we have McDonald's uh it's down four point five percent today.
- 7:26Speaker 1: That was its biggest single day loss since July of
- 7:29Speaker 1: two thousand nine. What we saw was the company reporting
- 7:32Speaker 1: same store sales UH sales growth that missed analysts estimates,
- 7:36Speaker 1: which is stoking concerns that the US fast food industry
- 7:39Speaker 1: is heading into a recession. We saw some other shares
- 7:43Speaker 1: for other fast food companies. Darden Restaurants, Chipotle, Mexican Grill,
- 7:48Speaker 1: and Young Brands all fell more than three percent on
- 7:51Speaker 1: the day. We've seen some negative commentary from various Wall
- 7:55Speaker 1: Street research analysts. Steve full Financials Paul Westra had raised
- 7:59Speaker 1: Can Serrens previously that the restaurant sector is hitting a downturn.
- 8:02Speaker 1: So McDonald's down four and a half percent. A tough
- 8:05Speaker 1: day for under Armor. The share price at the close
- 8:10Speaker 1: down more than five percent. Reported disappointing second quarter earnings
- 8:15Speaker 1: today just one sense to share adjusted versus estimates of
- 8:18Speaker 1: three cents share. They also announced today a move pm
- 8:22Speaker 1: to reach a more mainstream audience by partnering with Coals
- 8:25Speaker 1: will bring under Armers apparel to more than stores across
- 8:28Speaker 1: the US starting in March of two. But looks like
- 8:31Speaker 1: investors not cutting under Armer too much slack today. I
- 8:34Speaker 1: just wanted to mention Exact Sciences now. Maybe not familiar
- 8:39Speaker 1: with Exact Sciences. The symbol e x A s the
- 8:43Speaker 1: stock up thirty percent today. Uh. This follows the release
- 8:47Speaker 1: of strong second quarter financial's number of record number of
- 8:52Speaker 1: completed colon cancer tests hit a record. Shares move higher.
- 8:56Speaker 1: They completed fifty four thousand what they describe as colo
- 8:59Speaker 1: guards s. These are tests that are alternatives to other
- 9:04Speaker 1: colon cancer screening options. Once again, the shares of Exact
- 9:09Speaker 1: Sciences higher by thirty percent today. Time now for the
- 9:12Speaker 1: Volatility Index report, brought to you by CBOA ex Options
- 9:15Speaker 1: and Futures. Volatility can be harnessed with cbo E VIX
- 9:19Speaker 1: options and futures, so see disclosures. Learn more at cbo
- 9:22Speaker 1: E dot Com slash powerful Outcomes VIX. We've been called
- 9:25Speaker 1: a powerful outcome today for the VIX, up point one
- 9:29Speaker 1: nine points to thirteen point oh six. And if we
- 9:32Speaker 1: step back though and look at what's been happening to
- 9:34Speaker 1: the VIX lately, let's put this in perspective. After closing
- 9:37Speaker 1: above twenty five just a month ago on June, the
- 9:41Speaker 1: VIX closed below twelve this past week and marked the
- 9:44Speaker 1: quickest decline from a twenty five plus reading down to
- 9:47Speaker 1: a sub twelve reading on record, Doctor Doctor, a bad
- 10:03Speaker 1: clay case of the blues at least for one stock.
- 10:06Speaker 1: And here to tell us more Joe Ciolia, Bloomberg News,
- 10:10Speaker 1: Sentene Corps. Wow, this is uh, well the health ensured.
- 10:14Speaker 1: You're going to tell us a story. This is a
- 10:16Speaker 1: bad deal for your owner of Sentien shares. Absolutely so.
- 10:19Speaker 1: We saw Sentene down today about eight and a half percent.
- 10:23Speaker 1: It was the biggest drop in the SMP five hundred
- 10:26Speaker 1: and Um. What we're seeing is, uh, they actually had
- 10:29Speaker 1: a really good earnings report today. They exceeded analyst estimates
- 10:32Speaker 1: and they saw profit growth. However, the catch was they
- 10:37Speaker 1: said they were setting aside at least three hundred million
- 10:39Speaker 1: dollars to account for underperforming health plans in several states.
- 10:43Speaker 1: And if you may recall, I can refresh your memory.
- 10:46Speaker 1: They bought this company called health Net last year for
- 10:48Speaker 1: about six point three billion dollars. And most of these territories,
- 10:52Speaker 1: including California, Arizona, and Oregon that are underperforming are actually
- 10:57Speaker 1: those that were included in that health Net deal. So
- 11:00Speaker 1: it's sort of a buyer beware situation. You know, they
- 11:02Speaker 1: forked over an awful lot of cash for UH for
- 11:05Speaker 1: these assets and not now they're getting kind of hit
- 11:08Speaker 1: on the way down there. They're seeing those underperforming and
- 11:12Speaker 1: they're needing to, you know, allocate extra funds to maybe
- 11:15Speaker 1: soften the blow of their underperformance. And um so what
- 11:18Speaker 1: we've seen here is the company's year to date stock
- 11:22Speaker 1: increase was it was at four coming into the day.
- 11:25Speaker 1: Uh yeah, that's been you know, chopped down to about
- 11:28Speaker 1: four and a half percent now, so that's lost about
- 11:30Speaker 1: ten percent of it's UH of its um year to
- 11:32Speaker 1: date gain, and so it's it's been a very very
- 11:35Speaker 1: bad day for your owners of centeen UH down eight
- 11:38Speaker 1: and a half percent. A bad day. Indeed, Thank you
- 11:41Speaker 1: very much, so Jo Cla. We thank you. We're gonna
- 11:47Speaker 1: be taking a look at Apples earnings. We're gonna preview them.
