TD Ameritrade Stock 17% jumped on Thursday

德美利证券周四(11月21日)上涨17%

That’s because Charles Schwab (ticker: SCHW) is reportedly planning to buy the rival online brokerage firm. A combination of the two companies would be an industry behemoth. A merged company would be able to cut costs at a time when falling interest rates have hurt revenues.

该股上涨是因为据报道,嘉信理财(Charles Schwab, SCHW)计划收购这家网上券商竞争对手。两家公司的合并将缔造一家业内巨头。在利率下降给收入造成不利影响之际,合并后的公司能够削减成本。

And on Thursday, shares of another big player in the online brokerage space, E*TRADE (ETFC), fell about 9%. That’s an indication of just how powerful the newly combined competitor might be. But the deal between Schwab and TD Ameritrade (AMTD) is far from a done deal.

周四(11月21日),另一大网上券商E*TRADE (ETFC)下跌了约9%,这表明合并后产生的新竞争对手可能有多强大。但是,嘉信理财与德美利证券(TD Ameritrade, AMTD)之间的交易距离完成还尚有时日。

The companies are said to be still talking, and a merger would require regulatory approval. Given how powerful and profitable the combination could be, that’s not a sure thing.

据称两家公司仍在讨论中,合并将需要监管部门的批准。由于从实力和盈利能力角度来看这一合并交易的规模非常大,因此合并能否实现还不能肯定。

L Brands ’ Stock (LB) Rose 10% on Thursday.

L Brands周四上涨10%

The retailer, which owns Victoria’s Secret, provided a higher than expected outlook for the holiday shopping season. And that was enough to cheer up investors, despite falling sales at Victoria’s Secret stores.

这家拥有维多利亚的秘密(Victoria's Secret)品牌的零售商对假日购物季的预期高于市场预期。虽然维多利亚的秘密同店销售额下降,但较高的预期仍足以令投资者感到振奋。

Why has Victoria’s Secret been struggling? It has been dogged by its inability to adapt to changing customer taste for a while—and more recently, the parent company has received criticism for its founder’s’ association with Jeffrey Epstein. Shares are down more than a third so far this year.

为什么维多利亚的秘密的销售额一直在下降?因为一段时间以来,该品牌一直受困于无法适应不断变化的消费者口味。最近,母公司L Brands因其创始人与杰弗里·爱泼斯坦(Jeffrey Epstein)之间的关系而受到抨击。今年迄今为止,该股下跌了逾三分之一。

WeWork is Laying Off 2,400 Workers

WeWork裁员2400人

That’s according to The Wall Street Journal. The layoffs are hitting the office-leasing company’s global and U.S. operations. WeWork is also transferring one thousand maintenance workers to an outside vendor.

据《华尔街日报》报道,WeWork将裁员,裁员范围涉及这家办公室租赁公司的全球和美国业务。WeWork还准备将1000名维护工人转移到外部供应商。

Those cuts were widely expected because of WeWork’s recent history: First, you have the company’s botched IPO and its takeover by SoftBank. Then the departure of cofounder Adam Neumann and, lest we forget, quarterly losses of more than a billion dollars.

由于WeWork最近发生的一些事,人们普遍预计该公司会裁员:首先,该公司IPO受挫后被软银(SoftBank)接管。之后,联合创始人亚当·诺伊曼(Adam Neumann)离职,更严重的一个问题是,该公司季度亏损超过10亿美元。

Executives at the company have argued that going forward, the company will spend more wisely and retrench—and eventually, they say, WeWork will turn a profit.

WeWork高管认为,未来公司在支出方面将更加明智,而且会节省成本,他们认为,WeWork最终能够扭亏为盈。
