Bloomberg Intelligence hosted by Paul Sweeney and Alexandra Semenova
-Mandeep Singh, Global Tech Research Head at Bloomberg Intelligence, discusses Amazon’s cloud unit racing to get the latest version of its artificial intelligence chip to market, renewing efforts to sell hardware capable of rivaling products from Nvidia Corp. and Google.
-Poonam Goyal, Senior U.S. E-Commerce and Retail Analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, discusses Cyber Monday shopping results. According to Bloomberg Intelligence:
Walmart, Target and Macy's held Cyber Monday promotions steady vs. last year, with analysis finding deals largely unchanged for 57% of 81 retailers reviewed, while 17% offered deeper discounts and about a quarter pulled back -- suggesting margins can still align with 4Q expectations. Best Buy and Dick's also stayed firm, while Amazon.com and Kohl's went steeper and Old Navy, Nike and Wayfair scaled back.
-Geetha Ranganathan, Bloomberg Intelligence Analyst on US Media, discusses latest on bids for Warner Bros Discovery. Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. fielded a second round of bids, including a mostly cash offer from Netflix Inc., in an auction that could wrap up in the coming days or weeks.
-Brian Egger, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Gaming and Lodging Analyst, discusses New York City casino license winners. According to Bloomberg Intelligence: Bally's, Hard Rock and Resorts World -- approved for New York City resort licenses -- face a narrow path to decent returns on investment, with analysis showing just 10%. Win and hotel-rate assumptions are 10-20% premiums to rivals' averages, yet greater construction costs leave preferred 20% ROI out of reach.
