  • Why stocks may get hammered if Trump wins

    Why stocks may get hammered if Trump wins
    Nov 4 2024
    Election Day is almost here. And with that will come an end to one of the most divisive runs for the presidency in American history. Investors will be able to move on, hopefully putting more stock in a company's fundamentals than a Donald Trump post on Truth Social or an Elon Musk post on X, formerly Twitter. Moving on from the election will bring with it a host of inevitable risks and rewards for investors. Finding the rewards rather than the risks will be no easy achievement even for the most seasoned investor. Yahoo Finance executive editor Brian Sozzi talks at length with veteran investor, author, and founder of The Bear Traps Report Lawrence McDonald. McDonald – who is the author of the new book How to Listen When Markets Speak – outlines his biggest concerns about markets following the election. He also details areas of potential opportunity in the face of numerous fiscal and monetary challenges. Yahoo Finance's Opening Bid, brings you a high-octane take on the freshest analyst calls, wildest stock moves and shrewdest commentary in the business world.

  • Inside the $1 billion Nike rival, Brooks Running

    Inside the $1 billion Nike rival, Brooks Running
    Nov 1 2024
    Brooks Running may not be nearly as large as Nike or New Balance, but that doesn’t mean its impact on the sneaker industry isn’t still strong. The company – founded in the early 1900s to sell ballet slippers and bathing shoes – continues to be the top sneaker choice for serious runners. To maintain its pole position in running, Brooks has released a host of new innovations such as the Glycerin Max Road Shoe for a pricey $200. But fending off upstarts in running such as On and to a lesser extent, Decker’s outdoor owned Hoka won’t be easy. A resurgence at struggling Nike under new CEO Elliott Hill may also pose a risk. Yahoo Finance executive editor Brian Sozzi sits down with new Brooks Running CEO Dan Sheridan inside the Nasdaq Marketsite in Times Square ahead of the New York City Marathon. Sheridan reveals his vision for Brooks Running a few months into the top job and what Nike’s many stumbles have meant to the company’s growth. The long-time Brooks executive also shares what it’s like to be owned by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway.
