10 things you need to know before the opening bell (SPY, SPX, QQQ, DIA, SNAP, AAPL, NVDA, DIS, YELP)
Here is what you need to know.
China’s inflation heats up. Consumer prices in China rose 1.2% in April, above the 0.9% print that economists were forecasting.
Oil jumps as inventories fall. West Texas Intermediate crude oil trades up 1.1% at $46.38 a barrel after the latest American Petroleum Institute data showed US oil inventories fell by 5.79 million barrels. The Energy Information Administration’s weekly inventory data is due out at 10:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday.
Apple’s market cap tops $800 billion. Shares of Apple closed at $153.99 a piece on Tuesday, making it the first US company to cross the $800 billion plateau, Reuters says.
Traders are doubling down on short bets against Snap. Bearish wagers against the social media company have reached their highest level since its March 1 initial public offering, climbing by more than $100 million over the past week, data from financial analytics firm S3 Partners shows. Short interest now sits at $946 million ahead of Snap’s earnings, which will cross the wires after Wednesday’s closing bell.
Pret A Manger is reportedly prepping for an IPO. The coffee and sandwich chain is reportedly getting ready for a New York IPO later in 2017, Bloomberg says.
Disney sees continued weakness at ESPN. Operating income from Disney’s cable networks fell 3% versus a year ago to $1.8 billion. ” The decrease in operating income was due to a decrease at ESPN, partially offset by increases at the Disney Channels and Freeform,” Disney said.
Yelp crashes after missing on revenue and slashing guidance. The business-reviews site said first quarter revenue came in at $197.3 million ($198.4 million expected) and lowered its full-year revenue forecast to a range of $850 million to $865 million, down from $880 million to $900 million. Shares crashed as much as 28% following Tuesday’s closing bell.
Nvidia spikes after its earnings beat. Shares of Nvidia spiked more than 14% in extended trading on Tuesday after the company reported first quarter revenue surged 48.4% versus a year ago.
Stock markets around the world are mostly lower. China’s Shanghai Composite (-0.9%) trailed in Asia and Germany’s DAX (-0.1%) fights for positive territory in Europe. The S&P 500 is set to open lower by 0.2% near 2,393.
Earnings reporting slows down a bit. Mylan, Sotheby’s, and Wendy’s are among the companies reporting ahead of the opening bell while 21st Century Fox, Snap, and Whole Foods highlight the names releasing their quarterly results after markets close.

London-based ecommerce startup Clippings raises £2.8 million to revolutionize the interior design industry
Clippings, the UK’s leading online destination for sourcing furniture and lighting from premium design brands, has raised £2.8 million in a Series A round of venture capital funding, enabling the ecommerce startup to accelerate its vision for using technology to revolutionise the interior design industry.
Clippings aggregates premium design products from the world’s top brands in one online marketplace, addressing a pain-point in the discovery and purchase experience of high-end design for architects, interior designers and consumers. The London-based company aims to modernize and digtize this space by providing end-to-end ecommerce tools that facilitate the interior design sector. Clippings already features one of the largest selections of premium furniture and lighting products online, with over a million products available to buy.
Since its founding in 2014, by Adel Zakout and Tom Mallory, Clippings has consistently achieved more than 400% year-on-year growth in revenue and this significant cash injection will propel Clippings further on its journey to becoming the go-to destination for discovering and buying furniture and lighting. This investment round was led by European venture fund C4 Ventures, founded by the former Vice President and General Manager of Apple, Pascal Cagni. Fiona Dent, Group Managing Director, Time Inc. (UK) and existing investors also joined the round.
Clippings CEO Adel Zakout stated: “We’re creating a powerful digital platform to disrupt the interior design industry and ultimately create a far better experience for its customers. Hundreds of design brands and thousands of customers are already part of the Clippings story and today we’re happy to announce that C4 Ventures is joining us on that journey too.”
C4 Ventures founder Pascal Cagni said: “We believe the interior design industry is ripe for disruption. Adel and Tom’s unique insight and experience with this market as well as the powerful yet user-friendly platform they have built makes Clippings uniquely positioned to digitise interior design and dramatically enhance interior designers’ day-to-day work.”

A giant drugmaker just set the strictest price increase caps of the industry
Drug manufacturers have been feeling the heat over the price increases they make on prescription drugs.
Sanofi, which makes drugs to treat diabetes, along with vaccines and heart medications, has been criticized in the past for the price of its insulin Lantus.
To counter that, the French drug giant has decided to make some of the strictest drug pricing commitments in the industry.
Among Sanofi’s new pricing promises,
- The company committed not to increase the list price of existing drugs in the US by more than the rate of health inflation, as measured by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ National Health Expenditure. In 2015, the NHE rate is expected to be 5.4%, and it’s expected to increase on average 5.6% through 2025 years.
- Sanofi also plans to launch new drugs with a lot of rationale around how it set the price.
- The company also decided to release its average list and net price increases going forward. It’s something other companies have been doing as well.
The approach is a bit of a departure from other players in the pharma industry. In September, Allergan committed to only single-digit drug price increases (a line it closely hugged for some drugs). Novo Nordisk, another diabetes drugmaker, also committed to capping increases to single digits.
Cybele Bjorklund, Sanofi’s head of global policy, said the company decided to use the NHE as a benchmark because it’s independent and has some level of predictability. “Single digit is somewhat arbitrary,” she said.
And if that inflation rate were to go down? “We’re willing to live with wherever it goes,” she said.
As far as the rationale goes for new launch prices, Sanofi will have to show why its drug is better than what’s currently available. Bjorklund gave the example of Dupixent, a drug to treat atopic dermatitis. When the drug launched in March, Sanofi and its partner Regeneron made headlines for setting a price that was lower than expected.
As part of the new price policy, Sanofi began disclosing its average list price increases. On the whole, Sanofi’s list price increased 4% in 2016, but after factoring in discounts and rebates paid to pharma middlemen, the net price decreased by 2.1%.
In part, that’s because of its long-acting insulin Lantus, which hasn’t increased in list price since 2014, but has been facing pressures from pharma middlemen.

Bitcoin soars past $1,700 for the first time
Bitcoin seems unstoppable right now, topping $1,700 for the first time on Tuesday.
The cryptocurrency trades up 3.45% at $1,720.82 a coin, as trade grinds higher for the 16th time in 18 sessions. It has gained nearly 50% during its current streak.
Tuesday’s gain comes without any real catalyst as traders await the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s ruling on whether or not it will reverse its decision to reject the Winklevoss twins’ exchange traded fund.
Back in March, the SEC rejected two bitcoin ETFs, saying it “is disapproving this proposed rule change because it does not find the proposal to be consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Exchange Act, which requires, among other things, that the rules of a national securities exchange be designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices and to protect investors and the public interest.”
Bitcoin has shrugged off China restricting trade, the SEC’s rejecting of two bitcoin ETFs, and threats from developers to create a “hard fork” that would split the cryptocurrency in two to post an 81% gain so far in 2017.
There has been some good news as well.
At the beginning of April, Japan’s financial regulators said that bitcoin was now a legal payment method in the country, and days later Russia said it would consider bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in 2018.
Bitcoin has been the top-performing currency every year since 2010, aside from 2014.
