On this episode of Stock Movers:
Listen for comprehensive cross-platform coverage of the US market close as heard on Bloomberg Television, Bloomberg Radio, and YouTube with Romaine Bostick, Katie Greifeld, Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec.
- Fair Isaac (FICO), better known as FICO, will now sell credit scores directly to mortgage resellers, a move that sent shares of third-party credit bureaus plunging. Through a new program, mortgage resellers will be able to calculate and distribute credit scores directly to customers, reducing their reliance on credit bureaus. This will bring more price transparency and savings for mortgage lenders, mortgage brokers and other industry participants, FICO said in a statement. Shares of FICO rallied.
- Tesla (TSLA) shares fell after the automaker posted a record quarter of vehicle sales that will be difficult to replicate now that federal electric-car subsidies have expired. The company delivered 497,099 vehicles worldwide in the most recent quarter, 7.4% more than a year ago. Although the total far exceeds the roughly 439,600 average analyst estimate compiled by Bloomberg, Tesla’s shares slumped Thursday following a record monthly gain in market capitalization.
- Occidental (OXY) is done with monster dealmaking after reaching its asset-sales target with the $9.7 billion chemical-unit sale to Berkshire Hathaway Inc. Following the Texas oil driller’s transformational purchase of CrownRock LP for $10.8 billion in August 2024, Hollub targeted as much as $6 billion in asset sales to whittle away debt. As of early August, the company already was roughly two-thirds of the way to that goal. Shares declined.
