- 5:14Speaker 1: our stocks editor, what's moving and shaking most for you today? Dave? Well,
- 5:18Speaker 1: I'm taking a look at Netflix because sometimes, you know,
- 5:21Speaker 1: you get reminded about events that are coming up, and
- 5:25Speaker 1: that's enough to get investors excited. I say that because
- 5:29Speaker 1: you know, in September, Netflix will become the exclusive home
- 5:33Speaker 1: for films from Walt Disney and It's Marvel, Lucasfilm and
- 5:38Speaker 1: Pixar units. And people got a reminder about that from Variety,
- 5:43Speaker 1: the entertainment magazine. They put out a story so looking
- 5:46Speaker 1: at what's ahead for Netflix in light of this agreement,
- 5:50Speaker 1: which was actually signed three and a half years ago. Nonetheless,
- 5:54Speaker 1: good day for Netflix. Shares there rose three point two percent.
- 5:58Speaker 1: Thank you very much, Dave Wilson. Gonna see your Netflix
- 6:01Speaker 1: and I'm gonna raise you some. Apple uh up one
- 6:04Speaker 1: and a half percent today, Apple shares up a dollar
- 6:07Speaker 1: forty eight nine one on the clothes taking a look
- 6:10Speaker 1: at Apple UM. Now we know that Apple's chief executive
- 6:14Speaker 1: Tim Cook went to India last week in order to
- 6:16Speaker 1: try to sell more of those iPhones. UM. The trip
- 6:20Speaker 1: maybe not so great. India's Foreign Investment Promotion Board roulet.
- 6:24Speaker 1: Apple must comply with regulations to procure thirty percent of
- 6:29Speaker 1: components locally if it wants to sell through its own
- 6:32Speaker 1: retail stores. This according to people with direct knowledge of
- 6:36Speaker 1: the matter. But that doesn't seem to be hurting the
- 6:38Speaker 1: shares of Apple today they are highered by one and
- 6:42Speaker 1: a half percent. Well. Home builders up across the board.
- 6:46Speaker 1: Look at Toll Brothers up eight point seven percent at
- 6:50Speaker 1: the closet six cents, but Dr Horton up four percent,
- 6:53Speaker 1: Lenar up almost four percent, Pulti Group up more than
- 6:57Speaker 1: five percent, and the big. The big hid in part
- 7:01Speaker 1: that is raising these home builder boats, of course, is
- 7:03Speaker 1: the new home sales report. New home sales in April
- 7:07Speaker 1: up sixteen point six percent, the highest level six or
- 7:10Speaker 1: nineteen thousand units of the NANO rates since jan two
- 7:13Speaker 1: thousand and eight, the largest percentage increase since nine two.
- 7:17Speaker 1: But on top of that, Told Brothers reporting earnings per
- 7:21Speaker 1: share that beat estimates. UH orders doing better, and they
- 7:25Speaker 1: had a trend, a positive trend in reservation deposits up
- 7:29Speaker 1: twenty five year over year. So a very solid day,
- 7:32Speaker 1: but a note of warning. Our own Vinde Dell Judis
- 7:34Speaker 1: at the First Word Desk put out comments from many
- 7:37Speaker 1: economists saying, you know, this data can be volatile, Dave.
- 7:40Speaker 1: It can go up a lot one month and down
- 7:42Speaker 1: the next. Still today a big pad on the back
- 7:45Speaker 1: for the home builders. Oh, you could pat Sony on
- 7:48Speaker 1: the back today. And it's interesting to see that because
- 7:52Speaker 1: you know, the company came out with a forecast for
- 7:54Speaker 1: its current fiscal year which ends next March. They're looking
- 7:57Speaker 1: at a forty six percent rop in income. Wasn't one
- 8:01Speaker 1: analysts expected. They were looking for an increase on average
- 8:04Speaker 1: least the ones we survey. The thing is, though those
- 8:07Speaker 1: numbers include costs associated with an earthquake and lost sales
- 8:13Speaker 1: and slowing demand for smartphone components. But there are a
- 8:15Speaker 1: couple of stories going on Sony right now. One of
- 8:18Speaker 1: them is growth in their video game business, the play
- 8:22Speaker 1: station four Mosley coming out this year, and beyond that,
- 8:27Speaker 1: they're making sensors for driverless cars and other types of
- 8:30Speaker 1: new products. So people kind of looked at the numbers
- 8:33Speaker 1: and set aside that the disappointment in terms of the
- 8:36Speaker 1: Army's forecast and drove Sony shares up six percent in
- 8:39Speaker 1: US trading. Shares a Norfolk Southern the Railroad down nearly
- 8:44Speaker 1: three percent. Today. They've been presenting at the Wolf Research
- 8:47Speaker 1: Global Transportation Conference in New York City, Norfolk Southern saying
- 8:52Speaker 1: that second quarter volume of utility coal will be between
- 8:55Speaker 1: thirteen and fourteen million tons UH and thirteen and fifty
- 8:59Speaker 1: million tons for the third and fourth quarter, respectively, But
- 9:01Speaker 1: this all depends on whether they had lowered their utility
- 9:05Speaker 1: coal guidance to fifty million tons from twenty million tons,
- 9:09Speaker 1: just less use of coal supply and demand, also warm
- 9:12Speaker 1: weather low natural gas prices. Shares of Norfolk Southern down
- 9:16Speaker 1: nearly three percent. All right, it's time now for the

- 10:09Speaker 1: think you're doing? We're going for the pound Wilson Day day.
- 10:18Speaker 1: Nordson is your stock of the day and looks like
- 10:24Speaker 1: they are doing pretty well. I know you were thinking
- 10:25Speaker 1: of Nordstrom being Pacific Northwest native that you are, but
- 10:30Speaker 1: it's North Sun. It's a company that traces. It's roused
- 10:33Speaker 1: back to nineteen o nine when the US Automatic Company
- 10:36Speaker 1: got started. US Automatic was run by Walter G. Nord
- 10:40Speaker 1: for years. His sons Eric and Evan founded a new
- 10:44Speaker 1: company in they were nords Sons, hence the name. Nordson
- 10:51Speaker 1: makes machinery that applies adhesives and industrial codings along with
- 10:55Speaker 1: chip production equipment. Company has been publicly traced this nineteen
- 10:59Speaker 1: seventy nine and sticker symbol as n d s N.
- 11:02Speaker 1: Nordson shares peaked in May of last year and then
- 11:05Speaker 1: sank as much as thirty six percent as earnings reports
- 11:07Speaker 1: were disappointing. In January, the stock fell a what's lowest
- 11:11Speaker 1: price in about three and a half years Nordstrong nord Sun,
- 11:15Speaker 1: I should say, then rebounded and the recovery actually was
- 11:18Speaker 1: completed today after the release of fiscal second quarter results.
- 11:23Speaker 1: Adjusted earnings beat alist average estimate and Bloomberg survey by
- 11:26Speaker 1: thirty percent, the widest margin in six years. Sales exceeded
- 11:31Speaker 1: projections as well, and Nordson shares on the day well,
- 11:35Speaker 1: they had their biggest one day games since at least
- 11:38Speaker 1: nine four stock rising fifteen percent. Thank you, Dave Wilson,
