On this episode of Stock Movers
- Stellantis NV (STLA) shares are down. However, the Jeep Maker is willing to help its suppliers pay tariff costs to withstand the initial shock of US President Donald Trump’s trade war. The automaker has outlined a program in which suppliers would apply for help from the company to make monthly tariff payments to the US government, according to a person familiar with the matter. Marlo Vitous, Stellantis’ head of purchasing in North America, laid out the plan during a meeting with suppliers in Detroit last week, the person said.
- Dollar Tree (DLTR) shares are up as it was raised to buy from neutral at Citi, which anticipates the higher across-the-board tariffs will be positive for the discount retailer. The stock gains as much as 7.6%.
- AppLovin (APP) shares are up as a proposal to merge itself with the US subsidiary and eventually the global business of TikTok, as reported by CNBC, would help the advertising-technology firm accelerate its reach beyond its typical video-game clientele and into e-commerce. But its bid could be crowded out by other potential bidders such as Amazon, Blackstone and Oracle. AppLovin is expected by consensus to reach record free cash flow near $3 billion in 2025, thanks to ads, which yielded a 76% adjusted Ebitda margin in 2024.
