Financial Daily Dose 2.4.2022
February 04, 2022
Jobs Report Friday again, and general consensus is that with the Omicron surge hitting smack dab in the middle of January hiring, these numbers are going to be weird. Very weird - NYTimes and WSJ and MarketWatch
The more analysts dug into Meta’s quarterly earnings report yesterday, the less they liked. To the tune of a nearly 26% drop in company shares on Thursday that “erased more than $230 billion off its market value” and set the stage for Wall Street’s worst one-day drop in almost a year - NYTimes and WSJ and Bloomberg and MarketWatch
Interesting consideration here: what role, exactly, Apple’s new ad-privacy policy had (and will have) on Facebook’s financials - WSJ and NYTimes
Over at Amazon, the company’s cloud computing arm and a strong return on its investment in e-truck maker Rivian saved the day, making up for lower operating income compared to a year ago and juicing net income to $14.3 billion - NYTimes and WSJ and Bloomberg
Ford, too, relied on its Rivian investment to help push annual earnings $9 billion higher than it reported the year before. Ford CFO John Lawler predicted yet more growth for the company in ’22 - NYTimes and WSJ
Former Goldman Sachs exec Stephen Scherr will succeed interim chief Mark Fields as Hertz’s CEO. Scherr retired at Goldman’s CFO at the end of 2021 and takes over a company that “turned out to be a surprise winner as the pandemic reshaped Americans’ habits” - WSJ
Getting to know Phil Spencer, the Microsoft “lifer and lifelong gamer” who heads up the its gaming division and will be charged with using the recent $75 billion acquisition of Activision to, oh, you know, “reinvent the company” - WSJ
