UBS has indicated that new tariffs announced by former President Trump will challenge the retail sector, favoring companies like Kroger, Walmart, and AutoZone due to their domestic sourcing and pricing power. The clarity from the announcement allows retailers to strategize better, but navigating the long-term implications of these tariffs will be complex. AutoZone has also made governance changes to enhance shareholder rights and received upgrades from Goldman Sachs and DA Davidson, reflecting its strong market position and strategic investments.

On Election Day, Jim Cramer identified ten stocks likely to thrive under either Vice President Kamala Harris or former President Donald Trump, emphasizing companies with strong management and resilience to political shifts. Highlighted stocks include Walmart, Costco, TJX, Netflix, T-Mobile, Palo Alto Networks, CrowdStrike, Palantir, GE Vernova, and Cintas, all positioned to benefit from ongoing market trends and consumer needs.
Wall Street remains strong, with the Swiss market also showing positive trends. Manchester United's shares rose nearly three percent following the dismissal of coach Erik ten Hag, as the team languished in 14th place in the Premier League after nine games. Ruud van Nistelrooy steps in as interim coach, while the club has spent over £600 million on new players since Ten Hag's appointment, with shares down about 20% this year.
Shares of Peloton surged over 11% following David Einhorn's remarks at the 2024 SOHN Conference, where he claimed the stock is significantly undervalued while riding a Peloton bike. His comments came just after the company announced a partnership with Costco to sell its Bike+, targeting younger, affluent consumers. Peloton is currently led by two board members after CEO Barry McCarthy's departure and is focusing on profitability after a major refinancing.
On Wednesday, October 23, 2024, major analyst calls were made for several prominent companies, including Apple, McDonald's, Tesla, Costco, Microsoft, Carvana, and Uber. These evaluations are expected to influence market trends and investor decisions in the coming days.
Health insurance premiums in Switzerland are set to rise by an average of 6% in 2025, reaching CHF 378.70 monthly, with increases varying from 1.5% to 10.5% by canton. The rise is attributed to escalating healthcare costs, inflation, and an aging population. The most affected residents will be in Ticino, Glarus, and Jura, while Basel-City will see the smallest increase.
