- 1:14Speaker 1: right here on taking stock. Right now, the market is
- 1:17Speaker 1: not focused a heck of a lot on the election.
- 1:19Speaker 1: We think that the oddsmakers are putting a Clinton victory
- 1:23Speaker 1: as the more likely outcome. We think if that were
- 1:26Speaker 1: to happen, the market would assume it's it's following a
- 1:29Speaker 1: lot of the President Obama policies with a slightly better
- 1:33Speaker 1: economy bias, so that would be a modest positive for
- 1:36Speaker 1: the market. We think if Trump were to win the presidency,

- 1:43Speaker 1: concern and uncertainty. Apple has sent out an invitation for

- 2:41Speaker 1: And she says it's just not in me. I don't
- 2:43Speaker 1: give up, I don't fight, and she kept saying she's
- 2:46Speaker 1: not fighting for her terms, she's fighting for democracy and justice,
- 2:49Speaker 1: and just reiterated that she is innocent of the crime
- 2:52Speaker 1: she's being accused of. Bloomberg so Pall Bureau a chief

- 3:13Speaker 1: still refuse to vaccinate their kids. Shaun O'Leary, Associate Professor
- 3:17Speaker 1: of pediatrics at the University of Colorado, says sometimes their
- 3:21Speaker 1: reluctance to do so can be blamed on the effectiveness
- 3:24Speaker 1: of the vaccines, themselves victim of their own success. Because
- 3:29Speaker 1: we have achieved high vaccination rates in the US, we
- 3:32Speaker 1: don't see any of that needed anymore. So. Most of
- 3:34Speaker 1: the parents that are having children today have never seen
- 3:37Speaker 1: the evils. They've never seen Colio, They've never seen a
- 3:39Speaker 1: lot of things that we united kids. Gene Wilder, the

- 4:09Speaker 1: index climbing eleven points to a gain of five tenths

- 4:17Speaker 1: business flash move around, motion creates promotion, el move on
- 4:25Speaker 1: like they did, would provide pr people. Let's move like
- 4:32Speaker 1: you've got a purpose. That he's called movers and shakers.
- 4:40Speaker 1: They cost a little more. That name cracked me up.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Bloomberg taking stock movers and Shakers with PIM Fox and
- 4:53Speaker 1: Gatlin's on Bloomberg Radio. That's like a big thumbs up

- 5:02Speaker 1: hundred eight gainers, ninety two losers of five stock prices

- 5:10Speaker 1: This week, Dave Wilson is back our stocks editor. We're
- 5:13Speaker 1: gonna look at what's moving and shaking. What's at the
- 5:15Speaker 1: top of your list, Mr Wilson, Well, one of the
- 5:18Speaker 1: stocks actually got left out of today's advance, and that's
- 5:21Speaker 1: gillyad Science is you know, this is a company that
- 5:23Speaker 1: has established itself as a maker of hepatitis C treatments,
- 5:28Speaker 1: specifically Savaldi and Harvony. Harvony now their biggest seller. The
- 5:33Speaker 1: trouble is that data for the week end in August
- 5:37Speaker 1: nineteenth that was compiled by Symthony Health Solutions showed that
- 5:41Speaker 1: sales of harvony fell five and a half percent, and
- 5:45Speaker 1: this one drug accounted for a third of Gillyad's revenue
- 5:49Speaker 1: last quarters. So people watch these numbers pretty closely, and
- 5:52Speaker 1: they didn't like what they saw on the latest set
- 5:55Speaker 1: of weekly data. Gilly Head down two percent, and that
- 5:58Speaker 1: was actually the second biggest rop in the day. Was well,
- 6:04Speaker 1: pretty good day from mile on. Actually they've been in
- 6:07Speaker 1: some choppy waters. Of course. The company that sells a generic, well,
- 6:11Speaker 1: it sells its epipan. Now it's going to sell a
- 6:14Speaker 1: generic version that's gonna cost about half of the branded
- 6:18Speaker 1: six hundred dollar price tag on these emergency allergy shots.
- 6:23Speaker 1: Are going to do this in coming weeks. They're bowing
- 6:25Speaker 1: to big, big pressure after US lawmakers derided earlier steps
- 6:29Speaker 1: last week as a mere public relations fixed, and of
- 6:32Speaker 1: course they have. Boy, they're they're doing a lot here
- 6:36Speaker 1: to make up for having gotten the Congress to go
- 6:38Speaker 1: along with making it mandatory to have these epipans in
- 6:41Speaker 1: schools and the government helping to pay for it, and
- 6:43Speaker 1: then boosting the price so sharply. And of course the
- 6:45Speaker 1: CEO is the daughter of Democratic Senator Joe Mansion of
- 6:48Speaker 1: West Virginia. At any rate, are on this credit hollow
- 6:51Speaker 1: Bloomberg Big pharma and biotech analysts giving her pretty high marks.
- 6:57Speaker 1: That's Heather Brush for moving quickly to put this behind
- 7:00Speaker 1: mylon doing something that could quell all the outcry and
- 7:03Speaker 1: allow the company to move ahead. Dave and Milon up
- 7:06Speaker 1: Well only about a half of a percent, but still,
- 7:08Speaker 1: I'm sure she's very happy to see that, and the
- 7:11Speaker 1: investors in the company as well. Absolutely, And then we
- 7:14Speaker 1: turned to Alca. There was a deal in the aluminum industry.
- 7:18Speaker 1: It's a closely held company called a Laris that accepted
- 7:22Speaker 1: a takeover offer from China's Jong Wang Holdings. We're talking
- 7:26Speaker 1: about two point three billion dollars in cash and assumed debt.
- 7:30Speaker 1: And that deal got people's attention, you know, raise the
- 7:33Speaker 1: possibilities for publicly traded companies. Alcoa, as you recall, is
- 7:38Speaker 1: splitting into uh The aluminum business is going to be
- 7:42Speaker 1: separated from units to produce aircraft and auto parts UH.
- 7:47Speaker 1: ALCOHA shares up two point six percent on the day. Well,
- 7:51Speaker 1: I just want to take a broad look at the
- 7:53Speaker 1: bank so particularly UH Well's far ago uh The KBW
- 7:59Speaker 1: Bank's index was more than three percent today, it's highest
- 8:02Speaker 1: interest day since the beginning of the year January fourth,
- 8:05Speaker 1: regional banks leading the way, Wells Fargo up about a
- 8:10Speaker 1: buck and five cents, forty dollars and fifty six cents,
- 8:13Speaker 1: and many other gainers today from from the regional bank list.
- 8:17Speaker 1: But people seem to be attributing it to the fact
- 8:19Speaker 1: that Janet Yell in the FED chair. So the rate
- 8:22Speaker 1: high case has strengthened in recent months and I felt
- 8:25Speaker 1: that key rate gets higher will help bank with their
- 8:27Speaker 1: net interest margins and then stop getting a boost. Today
- 8:30Speaker 1: I wanted to mention us G know this is a
- 8:33Speaker 1: long time holding of Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway. They're the
- 8:37Speaker 1: largest shareholder with about a thirty percent steak. USG made
- 8:41Speaker 1: a deal today. They make building materials gypsum wallboard, a
- 8:45Speaker 1: specialty of theirs also known as sheet rock, that's the
- 8:48Speaker 1: brand name. Uh USG agreed to sell the distributor L
- 8:52Speaker 1: and W Supply for six d and seventy million dollars.
- 8:55Speaker 1: The buyer arrival ABC Supply now USG plan us to
- 9:00Speaker 1: use the proceeds for investments and debt repayment and this
- 9:04Speaker 1: deal went over whelm USG shares with a gain of
- 9:07Speaker 1: six points seven percent. Just a quick look here at
- 9:11Speaker 1: Nordstrom and j W Crew both share prices gaining today
- 9:16Speaker 1: after they announced that Jake Crew Group's flagship chain will
- 9:21Speaker 1: start selling an assortment of women's clothes at Nordstrom today,
- 9:25Speaker 1: so that boosting both of them quickly. Though Montalie is
- 9:27Speaker 1: no longer pursuing a combination with Hershey. That is the
- 9:30Speaker 1: latest a red hot sticky on the Bloomberg Dave uh
- 9:34Speaker 1: News Big News. Absolutely well. The issue for any boy
- 9:37Speaker 1: or hers She has been that Milton Hershey Trust, which
- 9:40Speaker 1: supports the school that the founder Hershey set up. And sure,
- 9:46Speaker 1: I mean he guess once again, it's an obstacle that
- 9:49Speaker 1: couldn't be surmounted. Well, a little bit of an obstacle,
- 9:52Speaker 1: I guess. Today Towards the volatility index, the VIX moving higher.

- 11:05Speaker 1: as much as this year. Today. They retreated after the
- 11:09Speaker 1: company lost in business. Car Marks set a supply contract
- 11:12Speaker 1: with Circle K Southeastern Stores will end in January. This
- 11:16Speaker 1: will cut the number of the change locations of the
- 11:18Speaker 1: company served by eleven undred or thirty six percent. Now,
- 11:21Speaker 1: circle K is part of Canadas couch Star, which was
- 11:24Speaker 1: Cormark's largest customer last year at fourteen percent of revenue,
- 11:27Speaker 1: and Cruise Stars expanding in the US. Just last week,
- 11:30Speaker 1: the company agreed to buy convenience store owners c ST Brands.
