Bloomberg Intelligence hosted by Paul Sweeney and Scarlet Fu

-Mandeep Singh, Global Tech Research Head at Bloomberg Intelligence, discusses Meta Platforms being in talks to spend billions on Google’s AI chips, adding to a monthslong share rally as the search giant has made the case it can rival Nvidia Corp. as a leader in artificial intelligence technology.

-Lindsay Dutch, Bloomberg Intelligence Consumer Hardlines Senior Analyst, discusses earnings from Dick's Sporting Goods and Best Buy. Dick’s Sporting Goods Inc. raised its outlook again, but investors focused on the costs of trying to turn around the Foot Locker sneaker chain it recently acquired for about $2.5 billion. Best Buy Co. raised its guidance for the current fiscal year, driven by demand for the latest consumer technology.

-Mary Ross Gilbert, Bloomberg Intelligence, Senior Equity Analyst, Covering Retail, discusses earnings from Kohl's and Abercrombie & Finch. Kohl’s Corp. raised its full-year outlook for the second straight quarter, adding to a steady stream of retailers reporting stronger-than-expected results. Abercrombie & Fitch Co. raised the low end of its full-year sales outlook as its Hollister brand continued to gain momentum.

-Diana Rosero Pena, Bloomberg Intelligence Consumer Staples Analyst, discusses JM Smuckers earnings. Jelly and coffee maker JM Smucker Co. lowered the top end of its full-year guidance after it canceled a planned price increase on coffee in the wake of tariff relief. The company will absorb the $75 million cost of already-incurred tariffs this year, which hurts results this fiscal year.
