On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Alibaba (BABA) shares are down after China announced retaliatory 34% tariffs on US goods. Beijing will impose a 34% tariff on all imports from the US starting April 10, according to the official Xinhua News Agency. Chinese authorities said they will start a probe into medical CT X-ray tubes imported from the US and India, and halt imports of poultry products from two American companies.
- Apple (APPL) shares dipped after the company lost over $300 billion yesterday, second largest drop in market cap for any company ever. The drop comes as the company has moved its supply chain away from China but to countries that face high tariffs.
- Stellantis (STLA) shares are lower after about 6,000 workers in Canada were idled by day 1 of US tariffs. It comes along with reports of 900 US jobs cuts and Fitch downgrading the company's debt from BBB+ to BBB.
- Nordstrom (JWN) is lower this morning after Citi downgraded the stock from hold to sell. The stock was shielded from a bigger fall yesterday because there's a pending deal from the Nordstrom family and Mexican retailer Liverpool to take the company over at $24.25. Citi sees little upside, but a larger chance of the deal falling apart.
