Bloomberg Intelligence hosted by Paul Sweeney and Scarlet Fu
-Clara Hernanz Lizarraga, Bloomberg Companies Reporter, discusses Estée Lauder being in talks to buy Puig Brands, which would create a cosmetics giant with about $20 billion in annual sales. A takeover of Puig would give Estée Lauder well-known perfume and fashion brands such as Rabanne, Jean Paul Gaultier and Carolina Herrera.
-Steve Man, Bloomberg Intelligence Global Autos and Industrials Research Analyst, discusses why a prolonged war with recession threatens a 15% drop in auto sales. According to Bloomberg Intelligence: a sustained spike in Brent crude oil above $100 a barrel favors automakers like Toyota, Tesla and Rivian due to their many hybrids and affordable battery electric vehicles.
-Jennifer Rie, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Litigation Analyst, discusses Bloomberg Intelligence research on why Nexstar’s Tegna acquisition appears to be at risk of legal pause. Nexstar closed its purchase of Tegna on March 19 after being cleared by the FCC and Justice Department, yet the deal isn't free from risk due to lawsuits to unwind it by eight states and DirecTV.
-Sam Fazeli, Bloomberg Intelligence, Director of Research for Global Industries and Senior Pharmaceuticals Analyst, discusses the latest in the biotech sector. Pfizer said its experimental Lyme disease vaccine was 73% effective against the tick-borne illness, a lackluster result as fewer-than-expected infections in the pivotal study made its potency hard to evaluate.
