'NBC, Macy's Near Pact That Would Triple Fees For Broadcasting Thanksgiving Parade; Macy's Parade's Average Annual Fee Would Increase To $60 Million Under New Terms' - WSJ

A mix of easing global geopolitical tensions, post-election bullish momentum and favorable seasonal trends propelled major U.S. stock indices to new record heights during Monday morning trading, marking what could be another <a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;rct=j&amp;opi=89978449&amp;url=https://www.benzinga.com/markets&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjAlZHc__eJAxU2BfsDHQLbGvkQFnoECCsQAQ&amp;usg=AOvVaw1FmExYgZnKyK1W0mkY7TrX">historic session on Wall Street.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average surged to all-time records, hitting intraday highs of 6,020 and 44,815 points, respectively, before paring back some gains.
Yet, the small-cap Russell 2000 index stole the spotlight, up 1.4% and reaching an all-time high for the first time since November 2021.
Investors cheered President-elect Donald Trump's nomination of hedge fund manager Scott Bessent for Treasury secretary, betting his Wall Street experience could steer fiscal policies<a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;rct=j&amp;opi=89978449&amp;url=https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42158330/trumps-treasury-secretary-pick-scott-bessent-says-a-global-economic-reordering-is-on-the-way-argues-president-elects-policies-will-lead-to-an-economic-lollapalooza&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjl2srK__eJAxV3KvsDHal-N2sQFnoECCAQAQ&amp;usg=AOvVaw2RHZDfMG584ba6QTHSP-jq"> toward a pro-market direction</a>.
Meanwhile, the barometer of geopolitical fears eased as Israel and Lebanon agreed to a framework for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42166676/israel-reaches-groundbreaking-ceasefire-deal-with-lebanon-gold-oil-tumble-sp-500-dow-jointly-hit-record-highs">ending the Israel-Hezbollah conflict</a>. While the deal still requires approval from Israel&#8217;s Security Cabinet, traders embraced the news, which sent ripples through commodity markets.
West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude tumbled 2.7%, falling below $70 per barrel, erasing Friday&#8217;s gains. Gold plummeted over 3%, marking one of its worst sessions in 2024, as safe-haven demand receded.
Bucking the trend, natural gas prices soared 8%, driven by reports that Trump's team is preparing to end Biden's freeze on liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports.
U.S. Treasury yields plunged as optimism around Bessent's nomination suggested a potential curb on unchecked deficit spending. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell more than 10 basis points to 4.29%, dragging the U.S. dollar down 0.6%.
While traditional equities rallied, the risk-on sentiment did not extend to cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) dropped 3% to around $95,000, further distancing itself from the highly anticipated $100,000 milestone.

Russell 2000, Dow, S&P 500 All Achieve Record Highs In Wall Street's Historic Day; Bitcoin, Gold Tumble: What's Driving Markets Monday?

Macy's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42162655/macy-falls-as-preliminary-q3-highlights-mixed-performance-and-154-million-expense-concealment">delayed its Q3 earnings release</a>, revealing an internal investigation into an employee who allegedly hid hundreds of millions of dollars in expenses.
Shares of Macy&#8217;s, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/M#NYSE">M</a>) are trading lower on Monday, and there is a good chance that the downtrend will continue.
This is why it is our Stock of the Day.
A person who was responsible for small package delivery expense accounting made intentional &#8220;erroneous accounting accrual entries.&#8221; As much as $154 million may have been hidden. The activity occurred between Q4 2021 and the current third quarter.
Macy's said there was &#8220;no indication that the accounting error had any impact on the cash management activities or vendor payments.&#8221; It also said the employee is no longer with the company.
Read Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42093639/why-macys-stock-is-falling">Why Macy&#8217;s Stock Is Falling</a>
The stock was looking technically vulnerable prior to the news coming out. As you can see on the chart, it had run into resistance again around the $16.40 level. Stocks tend to sell off after they hit resistance. This is what happened with Macy's in mid-October and early November.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="557" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/25101907/m-chart-1024x557.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-663574" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/25101907/m-chart-1024x557.webp 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/25101907/m-chart-300x163.webp 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/25101907/m-chart-768x418.webp 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/25101907/m-chart.webp 1501w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
When a stock trends higher, there aren't enough sellers to fill all the buy orders. As a result, buyers are forced to bid successively higher prices to attract sellers into the market, forcing the stock into an uptrend.
When resistance is reached, the uptrend ends. There are more than enough sellers to fill all of the buy orders. Buyers can acquire all of the shares they wish to without pushing the price any higher.
Sometimes, some investors and traders who create resistance with their sell orders become concerned. They know the buyers will go to whoever will sell at the lowest price.
They fear that other sellers may lower their asking prices, prompting them to do the same. This behavior often triggers a chain reaction, with more sellers reducing their prices in response.
It results in a snowball effect that can push the price lower.
This is what happened the last two times Macy's reached the $16.40 level, and it may be about to happen again.

Stock Of The Day: Macy's Hits Resistance Following Accounting Scandal

Macy&#8217;s Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/M#NYSE">M</a>) shares are trading lower premarket on Monday after the company delayed its earnings release and conference call regarding the&nbsp;third quarter&nbsp;of 2024 to allow for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42159940" rel="noreferrer noopener">the completion of an independent investigation.</a>
Earlier, the company planned to report its&nbsp;third-quarter&nbsp;sales and earnings results on <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/41824312" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tuesday, November 26, 2024.&nbsp;</a>
Accounting Error: Macy&#8217;s disclosed that an internal investigation revealed that an employee intentionally concealed $132 million-$154 million in delivery expenses from fourth-quarter 2021 to third-quarter 2024. During this same time period, the company recognized approximately&nbsp;$4.36 billion&nbsp;of delivery expenses.&nbsp;
There was no impact on cash management or vendor payments and the employee is no longer with the company, and no other employees were involved.
Preliminary&nbsp;Q3 Results: Meanwhile, the company reported preliminary&nbsp;third-quarter results, with a 2.4% decline in net sales to $4.742 billion (consensus $4.72 billion), with comparable sales down 2.4% on an owned basis and 1.3% on an owned-plus-licensed-plus-marketplace basis.
The company&#8217;s weaker performance in non-First 50 locations, the digital channel, and cold weather categories offset the growth in Macy&#8217;s First 50 locations, Bloomingdale&#8217;s, and Bluemercury.
Macy&#8217;s reported a 2.0% decline in go-forward business comparable sales on an owned basis and a 0.9% decline, including licensed and marketplace sales.
Also, the company saw a 3.1% drop in Macy&#8217;s&nbsp;nameplate net sales, with comparable sales down 3.0% owned and 2.2% on an owned-plus-licensed-plus-marketplace basis, driven by strong performances in fragrances, dresses, and active apparel.
Meanwhile, Bloomingdale&#8217;s net sales rose 1.4%, with comparable sales up 1.0% on an owned basis and 3.2% including licensed and marketplace sales, driven by strength in contemporary apparel, beauty, and digital.
Bluemercury saw a 3.2% increase in net sales and 3.3% growth in comparable sales on an owned basis, marking the fifteenth consecutive quarter of growth, with strong customer demand for skincare products.
Merchandise inventories increased 3.9% year-over-year, driven by better inventory composition and supply chain efficiencies, with about half of the increase attributed to the conversion to cost accounting.
Heading into the fourth quarter, the company believes it has the right <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">level of newness for the holiday season</a>.
As of the end of third-quarter, the company had $315 million in cash and cash equivalents, with $2.77 billion of available borrowing capacity.
Asset sale gains of $66 million were $61 million higher than last year, led by the monetization of non-core assets under the company&#8217;s Bold New Chapter strategy.
The company expects to report its full&nbsp;third-quarter&nbsp;results and hold its earnings conference call, where it will provide its&nbsp;fourth-quarter&nbsp;and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">full-year outlooks, by December 11, 2024.</a>
Tony Spring, chairman and chief executive officer of Macy&#8217;s, said, &#8220;Our Macy&#8217;s First 50 locations achieved their third consecutive quarter of comparable sales growth. At the same time, our luxury brands, Bloomingdale&#8217;s and Bluemercury, reported positive comparable sales. Importantly, November comparable sales are trending ahead of third quarter levels across nameplates.&#8221;
In September, Macy&#8217;s planned to hire over 31,500 seasonal employees across Macy&#8217;s, Bloomingdale&#8217;s, and Bluemercury<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40955083/holiday-opportunity-macys-plans-to-hire-31-500-seasonal-workers" rel="noreferrer noopener"> stores and distribution centers</a>.

10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

Macy&#8217;s Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/M#NYSE">M</a>) shares are trading lower by 3.04% to $14.68 during Wednesday&#8217;s session, reflecting broader retail sector jitters after Target Corporation released disappointing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/42085436/target-q3-earnings-supply-chain-chaos-hits-bottomline-slashes-annual-profit-outlook-stock-tanks">third-quarter earnings</a>.
What To Know: Target missed Wall Street estimates for both revenue and earnings per share, citing cost pressures and challenges related to inventory and supply chain management. The retail giant also lowered its full-year profit outlook, signaling caution heading into the crucial holiday season.
The ripple effects of Target's report are likely weighing on Macy's as investors brace for potential parallels in performance. Target's challenges, such as increased digital fulfillment costs and inventory pressures, may mirror broader trends impacting department stores, which have also been grappling with shifting consumer behavior and rising costs.

Additionally, Target's lowered guidance suggests potential headwinds for discretionary spending, a vital revenue driver for Macy's.
Target's results highlighted that while beauty and essentials categories grew, comparable sales across other segments were modest, raising concerns about retail demand. Macy's, heavily reliant on apparel and home goods, is particularly sensitive to shifts in consumer spending priorities. 
The cautious sentiment could pressure Macy's shares as investors reassess retail earnings prospects in a challenging economic environment.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy M Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument.
For example, in Macy&#8217;s case, it is in the Consumer Discretionary sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, Macy&#8217;s has a 52-week high of $22.10 and a 52-week low of $14.06.

Appaloosa Hedge Fund Buys Vistra, Sells Boeing

Sierra, the AI&nbsp;startup co-founded by former Salesforce&nbsp;co-CEO and OpenAI chairman Bret Taylor, has achieved a valuation of $4.5 billion following a successful funding round.
What Happened: On Monday, a year after its public launch, Sierra&nbsp;raised $175 million in a&nbsp;funding round led by Greenoaks Capital, reported Reuters.
Thrive Capital and Iconiq also&nbsp;participated in the round. The company&nbsp;had&nbsp;previously raised $110 million from&nbsp;Sequoia Capital and Benchmark at&nbsp;a nearly $1 billion valuation.

Despite growing concerns around AI bubbles, the&nbsp;funding has positioned&nbsp;Sierra as one of the&nbsp;most highly valued startups. The company has surpassed&nbsp;$20 million in annualized revenue,&nbsp;the report noted, citing sources familiar with the matter.
This latest funding round values Sierra higher than established brands such as Nikon Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NINOY#OTC">NINOY</a>) and Macy&#8217;s, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/M#NYSE">M</a>), which have market capitalizations of $4.43 billion and $4.30 billion, respectively.
Co-founded by Taylor and Google veteran Clay Bavor, Sierra specializes in selling AI-powered customer service chatbots to enterprises. It serves clients such as WeightWatchers&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WW#NASDAQ">WW</a>) and SiriusXM Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SIRI#NASDAQ">SIRI</a>).

Why It Matters: Sierra&#8217;s skyrocketing valuation comes amidst a surge in funding for AI startups. For instance, earlier this month ChatGPT-parent OpenAI secured more than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41149788/openai-valuation-soars-to-157b-in-latest-funding-roundhttps:/www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41407196/openais-for-profit-structure-adds-valuation-complexity-to-microsoft-and-other-equity-investors-repor">$6.5 billion in new funding at a valuation of $157 billion</a>.
In March this year, Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) announced an additional $2.75 billion investment in Anthropic. This follows an initial $1.25 billion investment from Amazon in September 2023, raising its total commitment to $4 billion. 
At the time, the investment was made based on Anthropic&#8217;s valuation of $18.4 billion.
In May 2024, Elon Musk&#8217;s AI startup xAI&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/39025708/elon-musk-cheers-funding-after-xai-secures-6b-from-sequoia-andreessen-horowitz-saudi-prince-alwaleed" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">raised a staggering $6 billion</a>&nbsp;in its Series B funding round, pegging a reported valuation of $24 billion.
In July, Cohere Inc., backed by Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) reached a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39890578/nvidia-backed-ai-startup-coheres-valuation-soars-to-5-5b-report">$5.5 billion valuation</a> becoming one of Canada's largest startups.
