- 5:27Speaker 1: Stocks Calumnist. Let's take a look at signal. You know
- 5:30Speaker 1: Anthem has been trying to buy the Health Ensure for
- 5:34Speaker 1: more than a year. Now it's a forty eight billion
- 5:36Speaker 1: dollar deal. The Justice Department has filed an anti trust
- 5:40Speaker 1: suit to block the transaction from going through. Well today,
- 5:45Speaker 1: a lawyer for the department said at a hearing on
- 5:48Speaker 1: the suit that the agency's open to listening to settlement
- 5:53Speaker 1: offers from Anthem to try and resolve the issues that
- 5:57Speaker 1: are holding up the deal, and that respect, and maybe
- 6:00Speaker 1: they will be a settlement down the line went over well.
- 6:04Speaker 1: Stigma shares up five point three percent. That's the third
- 6:07Speaker 1: biggest game on the day. And the S and P
- 6:09Speaker 1: and them also higher, rising one point six percent. And
- 6:13Speaker 1: I want to talk about a solar panel installation company.
- 6:18Speaker 1: Sun Run climbed the most in more than seven months
- 6:20Speaker 1: after sales increased sixty nine percent in the second quarter
- 6:23Speaker 1: that beat estimates. UH and the second biggest uf rooftop
- 6:28Speaker 1: solar company, exceeded its installation forecast, so beating even its

- 6:36Speaker 1: on the other hand, was down one point three one
- 6:39Speaker 1: point four percent at the end of trading, and Vivint
- 6:43Speaker 1: was down four point four percent. So only sun Run
- 6:45Speaker 1: gets that bonus. All right, I'm gonna tell you about
- 6:47Speaker 1: the shares of Ruby Tuesday, the restaurant company, down more
- 6:51Speaker 1: than thirteen percent today after reporting fourth quarter results that
- 6:55Speaker 1: missed earnings estimates. The Maryville, Tennessee company said that it's

- 7:08Speaker 1: traffic as well as high promotional activity, and it was
- 7:13Speaker 1: the loss for the quarter was forty six cents. Revenue
- 7:15Speaker 1: fell six percent. Ruby Tuesday stock fell. I want to
- 7:20Speaker 1: revisit Ali Baba Group Holding, the Chinese e commerce company
- 7:24Speaker 1: who talked about him yesterday, because they came out with
- 7:27Speaker 1: fiscal first quarter results, earnings and revenue beating analysts average
- 7:31Speaker 1: estimates and Bloomberg survey. Well, today Ali Baba shares did
- 7:34Speaker 1: even better than they did yesterday. You put that together,
- 7:37Speaker 1: it's a seven point one percent gain today. Ali Baba
- 7:41Speaker 1: in the last two days up twelve and a half percent,
- 7:43Speaker 1: and that's the biggest jump for the stocks as the
- 7:45Speaker 1: company went public almost two years ago, and Yahoo, which
- 7:49Speaker 1: owns about a fifteen per cent steak on Ali Baba,
- 7:51Speaker 1: went along for the ride. Today's trading uh Yahoo shares
- 7:55Speaker 1: up four point one percent, and that's on top of
- 7:59Speaker 1: the game yesterday speaking of retailers, J C. Penny of
- 8:03Speaker 1: course big story of the day and retail posting a
- 8:05Speaker 1: smaller fiscal second quarter net loss than analysts had estimated,
- 8:10Speaker 1: showing that while consistent profitability remains incredibly elusive, the department

- 8:37Speaker 1: a little over a third of what the company had
- 8:39Speaker 1: applied for. The gaming authority also said that the gaming
- 8:42Speaker 1: tables will be for mass market players. Let's talk about
