- 2:35Speaker 1: he had this message, I will not let you down.
- 2:38Speaker 1: Remember that, I will not let you do. The n
- 2:42Speaker 1: r A CEO Wayne Lapierre accused Democrats of using super
- 2:46Speaker 1: delegates to rig the system. It's a dirty inside game.
- 2:51Speaker 1: It's a corrupt system, but no one should be surprised
- 2:55Speaker 1: corruption as followed Hillary Clinton almost her entire three. European

- 3:23Speaker 1: in an effort to get airline passengers moving faster through
- 3:26Speaker 1: those long security lines. But Administrator Paul Neffinger says the

- 4:02Speaker 1: the Bloomberg News Room, I'm Mark Crompton, Charlie, and we
- 4:05Speaker 1: thank you and again updating you on the story involving
- 4:09Speaker 1: the White House that is now on a security alert

- 4:30Speaker 1: Update for the tale the SMP and Nestak SMP advancing
- 4:34Speaker 1: twelve points to two thousand fifty two to end the
- 4:37Speaker 1: week and head into the weekend with a gain of
- 4:40Speaker 1: six tenths of one percent. I'm Charlie Pellett. That's a
- 4:42Speaker 1: Bloomberg business flash over most and create promotion. I've never
- 4:52Speaker 1: seen anyone move that fast. Pelet's move to get a purpose.
- 5:04Speaker 1: Something's called movers and shakers. It costs a little movement,
- 5:07Speaker 1: and that name cracked me up. Bloomberg taking stock movers
- 5:16Speaker 1: and shakers with pim Fox and Kathleen As on Bloomberg Radio.
- 5:21Speaker 1: Stocks higher across the board today, led by one point
- 5:24Speaker 1: two percent, gaining the nastack applied material shares the big
- 5:27Speaker 1: leader there uh SMPF five hundred, showing that this was
- 5:32Speaker 1: a pretty solid move up in stocks today because you
- 5:36Speaker 1: had four to nine issues moving higher, only nine four
- 5:39Speaker 1: down to unchanged. Dave Wilson are stocks that are is
- 5:43Speaker 1: back to kick off with one of his favorite movers
- 5:46Speaker 1: and shakers. I just want to mention a headline that
- 5:48Speaker 1: just moved. Actually Freeport mcmurran. You know they're in the copper,
- 5:52Speaker 1: gold and energy business. They had been talking about an
- 5:55Speaker 1: initial public offering of their oil and gas unit as
- 5:58Speaker 1: one way to help raise money in response to falling
- 6:02Speaker 1: commodity price as well. Headline just came out that Freeport
- 6:06Speaker 1: Mcmaran Oil and Gas has withdrawn the potential I p
- 6:11Speaker 1: O initial public offerings, So that's not going to happen. Uh,
- 6:15Speaker 1: And we're seeing Freeports shares fallen late trading in response
- 6:19Speaker 1: to the news. At the moment, the stock down at
- 6:22Speaker 1: about one percent uh ten dollars nine three cents the
- 6:26Speaker 1: latest trade, Freeport closing at eleven o eight in today's session.
- 6:32Speaker 1: Let me tell you about the shares of McDonald's down
- 6:35Speaker 1: today by more than two percent. A variety of stocks
- 6:39Speaker 1: moving lower basically because of a note from bt I
- 6:43Speaker 1: g S technical analyst Katie Stockton having to do with
- 6:47Speaker 1: what are called demark cell signals. Describes these SMP fives
- 6:53Speaker 1: and showing signs of intermediate term upside exhaustion, and McDonald's
- 6:59Speaker 1: was one of those. At McDonald's shares down today. Well,
- 7:03Speaker 1: I want to take a look at Dick's Dick's Sporting Goods.
- 7:06Speaker 1: It's up more than five percent of the close forty
- 7:09Speaker 1: three dollars and changes the share price, and that's because
- 7:15Speaker 1: their stock rating was raised to buy from neutral. At
- 7:17Speaker 1: Goldman Sacks, analysts also raised their price target to fifty
- 7:21Speaker 1: three dollars from fifty bucks. They say that Dix is
- 7:24Speaker 1: expected to benefit from the bankruptcy of its largest competitor,
- 7:28Speaker 1: Sports Authority, set to close most of its stores by
- 7:31Speaker 1: the end of August. Here's what they write, d k
- 7:34Speaker 1: seems position to gain share. Thirty seven percent of its
- 7:37Speaker 1: stores have at least one Sport Authority stores within ten miles.
- 7:42Speaker 1: So a big move up for Dicks today PIM or Dave,
- 7:45Speaker 1: and that was on top of an eight and a
- 7:47Speaker 1: half percent gain yesterday after Dicks came out with ernies.
- 7:50Speaker 1: I'll tell you though, dear can only wish for that
- 7:53Speaker 1: kind of a performance. Uh. They came out with their
- 7:56Speaker 1: results and their forecast did not go over so well. Specifically,
- 8:01Speaker 1: the world's biggest maker of farmer equipment cut its fiscal
- 8:04Speaker 1: year profit forecast in response to falling crop prices. Less
- 8:08Speaker 1: farm income, farmers can't go out and buy as many
- 8:11Speaker 1: tractors and combines, and now they're looking at earnings at
- 8:14Speaker 1: one point two billion dollars for the year as opposed
- 8:17Speaker 1: to one point three billion. That certainly didn't sit well
- 8:21Speaker 1: with investors. You saw shares of Deer fall five and
- 8:24Speaker 1: a half percent in today's trading. Can I say that
- 8:27Speaker 1: Campbell Soup shares are in the soup slump? Well, Campbell
- 8:31Speaker 1: shares slipping after the company posted its sixth straight quarter
- 8:35Speaker 1: of falling sales. Now, they did report earnings that narrowly
- 8:39Speaker 1: exceeded Wall Street estimates. They also increased their outlook for
- 8:43Speaker 1: the year despite week organic sales in the last quarter. Nevertheless,
- 8:49Speaker 1: shares of Campbell Soup down today by more than six percent.
- 8:53Speaker 1: I just want to call attention to terminal users, in
- 8:56Speaker 1: particular to foot lock Or. One of our chart of
- 8:59Speaker 1: the hours out today from our own Kevin Orland, is
- 9:02Speaker 1: about foot Locker. It shows that foot Locker posted the
- 9:06Speaker 1: smallest same store sales game in more than two years
- 9:09Speaker 1: in its first quarter results reported today, suggesting the recent
- 9:12Speaker 1: US consumer relaise may be spreading to the athletic gear market.
- 9:17Speaker 1: Foot Locker as a result, closing down nearly six and
- 9:20Speaker 1: a half percent today. Time now for the Volatility Index report.
- 9:23Speaker 1: It is brought to you by cbo E Vix Options
- 9:25Speaker 1: and Futures. Volatility can be harnessed with cbo E VIX

- 9:37Speaker 1: nearly six percent, down point nine, settling at fifteen point
- 9:42Speaker 1: a thirty four, and the VIX has climbed about twenty
- 9:46Speaker 1: five through yesterday, beating similar indexes of other asset classes,
- 9:51Speaker 1: but while it is still much lower than the previous peaks,
- 9:54Speaker 1: the VIX average this year is the highest since twenty eleven.
- 10:00Speaker 1: All right, Dave, you're up. Uh hi, my name is Dave.
- 10:06Speaker 1: Just what do you think you're doing? We're going for
- 10:08Speaker 1: the day, Mr Wilson. Keysite Technology is a spinoff of
- 10:18Speaker 1: a spinoff. That's it. I mean. Key Site is a
- 10:20Speaker 1: provider of electronic measurement services that was separated from Agilant
- 10:25Speaker 1: Technologies in November, and Agilant was spun off by Hewett
- 10:30Speaker 1: Packard back in two thousands, so indeed, a spinoff of
- 10:33Speaker 1: a spinoff. Key Site trades under the ticker keys k
- 10:37Speaker 1: e y S. The shares trade at thirty one fifty
- 10:40Speaker 1: just before the spinoff was completed. Since then, they've swung
- 10:43Speaker 1: between thirty eight ninety nine and twenty one oh seven.
- 10:47Speaker 1: The low was reached on February eleven, when the SMP
- 10:50Speaker 1: five hundred also hit bottom for the year. UH. Key
- 10:53Speaker 1: Site has rebounded since then, and the rally accelerated today
- 10:57Speaker 1: after the lead release of the of these latest results.
- 11:01Speaker 1: Late yesterday, Keysite posted phiscal second quarter adjusted profit of
- 11:04Speaker 1: sixty one as a share that's five cents higher than
- 11:07Speaker 1: analysts average estmate new Bloomberg survey. Revenue also beat projections,
- 11:12Speaker 1: and so did the company's third quarter sales forecast. The
- 11:16Speaker 1: results sent shares of key Site to a gain of
- 11:20Speaker 1: fifteen percent, and when you put that in context, you
- 11:24Speaker 1: see it is the biggest one day advanced for the
- 11:26Speaker 1: stock since the company gained independence. And by the way,
- 11:30Speaker 1: the surge pushed the shares higher for the year as well. Uh.
- 11:33Speaker 1: Not quite so much for game though, just a five
- 11:36Speaker 1: point seven percent for sixteen. Thank you very much. Dave Wilson,
