Entrepreneur Edgar Bronfman Jr. plans for Paramount
$PARA (-1,86 %) a collaboration with a technology company such as Amazon
$AMZN (+2,65 %) or Apple
$AAPL (+1,15 %)to strengthen its streaming TV business - Bloomberg.

08.07.2024 +++ Nike cuts costs +++ Boeing fined heavily +++ Tesla with high legal costs +++ Falling oil price depresses EXXON Mobile +++ Delivery Hero makes higher provision +++ Paramount merges +++ German imports worse than expected +++ (Update 3:10 pm)

From 2027 onwards Nike $NKE (+0,62 %) the German national soccer teams. But the 100 million deal seems to be an act of desperation. Nike boss John Donahoe urgently needs a success. And snatching away its most important symbol from rival Adidas in its home market after almost 80 years is a success. However, it was one that immediately fizzled out. Donahoe's deal not only caused astonishment among experts, but also head-shaking in his own ranks. Because while the boss is throwing millions at the DFB, he is implementing a rigid cost-cutting program at Nike. Costs are to be reduced by two billion US dollars and around 1700 jobs are to be cut, 740 of them at the company headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon. Because business is going worse than ever. (Süddeutsche Zeitung)

The Boeing share $BA (-3,06 %) rose by 0.7 % after the aircraft manufacturer agreed to pay a fine of USD 243.6 million as part of the US Department of Justice's investigation into two fatal 737 MAX crashes.

The Tesla share $TSLA (+1,2 %)fell 1% after hitting its highest level this year on Friday, while the electric vehicle maker's shareholders will argue in court on Monday that an unprecedented demand for more than $7 billion in legal fees that the company is ordered to pay is "preposterous".

The shares of Exxon Mobil $XOM (+1,51 %) fell 1.2% on Monday as crude oil prices declined. This overshadowed the oil major's statement that changes in oil prices would boost the company's second-quarter upstream earnings by $300 million to $700 million compared with the first quarter.

DELIVERY HERO $DHER (+2,28 %) reports bad news on Sunday evening. The delivery service had to announce that it would have to significantly increase its provisions for anti-competitive agreements. Delivery Hero had previously set aside EUR 186 million for this purpose. Now it could even be more than EUR 400 million

Paramount Global $PARA (-1,86 %) merges with Skydance Media - a complicated transaction that ends the Redstone family's involvement in the Hollywood company. Shari Redstone sells her family's majority stake in Paramount Global and merges the entertainment giant with Skydance Media. This ends the almost four decades of power she and her father held in the entertainment industry. Skydance and its investors have agreed to spend more than 8 billion dollars to acquire National Amusements, the family business that controls Paramount, and invest in the new version of the company. The deal provides the struggling entertainment giant with a cash injection at a time when the traditional media landscape is in decline

In the midst of the trade dispute with China, German exports slumped in May. Exports fell both to EU countries and to so-called third countries. Overall, exporters sold 3.6 percent less abroad than in the previous month, adjusted for calendar and seasonal effects, according to the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis). Economists surveyed by Dow Jones Newswires had expected a drop of 3.0 percent. Compared to the same month last year, exports were 1.6 percent lower. Imports fell by 6.6 percent in May compared to the previous month. The economists surveyed had predicted a drop of 2.0%. For the year as a whole, the decline amounted to 8.7 percent. In total, calendar and seasonally adjusted goods worth 131.6 billion euros were exported from Germany and goods worth 106.7 billion euros were imported into Germany in May.

03.07.2024 +++ Tesla no longer growing so strongly +++ Moderna to develop new vaccine +++ Eli Lilly receives approval for Alzheimer's drug +++ Purchasing Managers' Index in DE, IT, FR and UK today +++

$TSLA (+1,2 %) Tesla's vehicle sales fell again in the second quarter in the face of increasing competition. The company reported sales of 443,956 vehicles worldwide, a decrease of 4.8 percent compared to the same quarter last year. According to Factset, analysts had expected Tesla to deliver only 436,000 units. The US company is no longer growing as fast as in previous years, which underlines the challenges facing the entire industry. Other carmakers have launched dozens of new electric models, but demand has fallen short of initial expectations - despite falling prices and a series of low-interest and leasing offers. CEO Elon Musk is facing his biggest test in years. The Tesla founder wants to spend more money on developing new and more affordable models, while also investing in costly new technologies amid a slowing market for electric cars.

The pharmaceutical manufacturer Moderna $MRNA (-2,63 %) is to develop an mRNA-based vaccine against avian flu for humans. The company has announced that it has been awarded 176 million US dollars by the government. The contract follows an unprecedented outbreak of avian flu in US livestock. So far, 137 dairy herds in a dozen states are known to be infected. Only three known cases of human infection with the H5N1 virus have been reported in the US since the outbreak. However, the authorities are monitoring the situation very closely. Scientists fear a potential pandemic threat. The US government, in collaboration with GSK, Sanofi and CSL Sequirus, has developed its own vaccines that could be used in the event of an H5N1 outbreak. However, production capacity is limited. Moderna is developing a pandemic influenza vaccine candidate called mRNA-1018 and began trials last year. Initial results are expected this year.

Eli Lilly $LLY (-0,29 %) has received US approval for its Alzheimer's drug Kisunla, which will accelerate change in the treatment of this dementia. Kisunla is administered monthly and costs about $12,522 for six months of treatment, $32,000 for 12 months and $48,696 for 18 months. Some patients diagnosed with the disease have taken a pill to alleviate their symptoms. Others ended up in institutions that took care of them once they could no longer look after themselves. With the launch of drugs like Eli Lilly's Kisunla, Alzheimer's treatment promises to slow cognitive decline, albeit modestly.

Paramount Global CLASS A and CLASS B shares (complicated questions for professionals)

First of all, we all know the difference between Class A and Class B shares. Basically, Class A shares have voting rights and are more expensive, while Class B shares are priced lower (and therefore may have a higher dividend yield) and have no voting rights.

In principle, it should not matter which of the two shares you buy, as the performance is almost identical. This also works very well with Berkshire in the following example $BRK.A (+0,79 %) and $BRK.B (+0,95 %)

However, I have now found a very complicated case involving the shares of Paramount Global, namely $PARA (-1,86 %) and $PARAA (+4,81 %) These basically work in the same way as described above, but the charts are completely independent of each other. For example, over the year (YTD) the Class A share has gained +16%, while the Class B share has fallen by -8%.

Now the takeover that all shareholders are hoping for is finally on the horizon (I reported on it) and something strange is happening again. The Class A share, which is actually performing better, rises by +10% over the month, while the Class B share rises by +30%.

But that makes no sense at all, because if we assume a takeover, the Class A share should actually be much more interesting, as the aim is to buy up the voting rights.

Am I crazy, or does this really not make any sense at all?

Since I have buried myself again in Rabbit hole stock picking and am looking for a Tenbagger, here times for the round, which of the listed here could possibly be with the most potential. These are mirco/small caps, which are a pure bet, total loss calculated possible! SOS ahoy.

Plan: horizon 5-6 years ; follow companies then of course.

Buzzword bingo like pricing power, P/E ratio KUV, sun moon and stars may be used with pleasure.

The companies from the video are, behind them my gut commentary. No analysis. I make for really m.M.n. interesting then again dedicated.

1st Chart Industries: Industrial stuff $GTLS (+1,59 %)
https://www.chartindustries.com/

2. Paramount Global (Viacom): Broadcasting/Streaming: knowing the industry, I still see a lot of consolidation and clearly rather no. $PARA (-1,86 %)

3. PagSeguro Digital: $PAGS PSP Payment Service Provider like an Adyen, Stripe and for the German ones something like concardis. Fiercely competitive field, technical hurdles are relatively medium (PCI & Sox available = high data security, banking license, etc.). Winners are local heros, as soon as the critical mass of merchants is reached. Are there some LATAM homies here who could say something about the store? https://international.pagseguro.com/

4th AG Growth: $AFN (-0,57 %) Agricultural machinery. Canadian shares - no thanks. https://www.aggrowth.com/

5. Ameal Pharma: $AMRX (-1,72 %) Do generic drugs -.

https://amneal.com/products/our-portfolio/

6. Maas Group: $MGH Heavy construction equipment from Australia is something I've always wanted to have https://maasgroup.com.au/

7. jazz pharmaceuticals: $JAZZ (+0,48 %) Medicines for people with serious illnesses. Homebias have an office in Munich. 😊 https://www.jazzpharma.com/

8. okeanis: $OKE (+1,17 %) Tankers with special filters with less exhaust. See YT video. https://www.okeanisecotankers.com/

Economy on 05.05.2023...

Into the WE with good numbers from Apple, right? ⤵️

Yes, the numbers from $AAPL (+1,15 %)
Apple, did exceed expectations, but they were also quite low. Apple's revenue is down 3% year-over-year and will also end 2023 with a decline from 2022. But again I say, for me the tech industry comparisons to 2021/2021 are very limp. In some cases, it was not possible to deliver, raw materials were not available or had to pay significantly more for them, and suppliers had the same problems. What really started in 2022 and only became apparent later is continuing and is now more and more visible in the figures.

Apple sales in the second quarter: iPhone 51.33 billion, Mac 7.17 billion, iPad 6.67 billion, Services 20.91 billion, Products 73.93 billion, Greater China 17.81 billion.

Apple also launches a $90 billion share buyback program and raises dividend by 4.3%. Apple could afford to do much more, but in my opinion it is doing it right. Small steps and invest more in growth (which of course is becoming increasingly difficult). It remains exciting!

Further interesting were yesterday $SHOP (+7,76 %)
Shopifywhich rose over 25%, $DDOG (+5 %)
Datadog with +15% and there were also some disappointments like $PARA (-1,86 %)
Paramount, $PTON (+0,64 %)
Peloton, $BKNG (-0,14 %)
Booking Holdings, $VNA (-2,11 %)
Vonovia and so on. So not everything is shining at the moment. Vonovia continues to record heavy losses and is now selling 5 projects for just under € 560 million. Rising interest rates and declining sales, continue to create strong here, even if the demand for housing continues to be strong and rents are still rising slightly on average. I will use the Kriese to expand my position still something. I have now also added to Paypal again at the level. Technically, I like the chart currently very much and next week, we know more about the fundamental side! What do you currently have so on the screen, or which dip have you bought or plan to buy it?

What is today (figures from MüRück interest me very much) to the weekend still so:
