Bloomberg Intelligence hosted by Paul Sweeney and Scarlet Fu
-Sana Pashankar, Bloomberg Space Reporter, discusses Elon Musk endorsing the prospect of combining SpaceX with Tesla, uniting assets from electric cars to AI data centers to rocket and satellite capabilities. Musk said the boards of both companies had formed special committees to consider the idea of a combination, but cautioned that getting enough support from Tesla shareholders may be tricky.
-Matt Henriksson, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Equity Analyst, discusses Abbott Laboratories planning to spin off its nutrition unit into a separate publicly traded company through a tax-free distribution to shareholders. The new company will have annual sales of about $8.5 billion from its key brands, including Pedialyte and Ensure, and will be led by Daniel Salvadori as chief executive officer.
-George Ferguson, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Aerospace, Defense, & Airlines Analyst, discusses United Airlines forecasting weaker-than-expected earnings for the final three months of the year due to soaring jet fuel prices. United shares rose more than 4% after the carrier commented on strong operating revenue and reassurance on 2027 pretax margin targets.
-Geetha Ranganathan, Bloomberg Intelligence Analyst on US Media, discusses Netflix earnings. Netflix reported its slowest sales jump in three years and forecast a fourth consecutive quarter of slowing growth, amplifying concerns about the performance of the world’s leading online TV network. The company blamed its sales shortfall on the advertising business, which is on pace to deliver $300 million less than expected, and has overhauled its leadership to address a decline in programming quality.
