Stock Movers

On this episode of Stock Movers:
- SpaceX (SPCX) shares slide. Shares of Elon Musk’s Tesla Inc. and Space Exploration Technologies Corp. fell ahead of Wednesday’s US stock-market opening as Democrats swept to control of Congress. A so-called blue wave in the midterm elections will fan concerns about tighter regulations around artificial intelligence, and also creates more uncertainty over a potential merger of the electric vehicle maker and the rocket, AI and satellite giant.
- CVS (CVS) shares drop. CVS Health Corp. plans to spin off its retail pharmacy business into a new company called CVS Pharmacy in the first half of 2028. The move will separate the drugstore business from the Aetna insurance unit and Caremark prescription benefits division, with both companies to be publicly traded.
- Kraft Heinz (KHC) shares rise. Kraft Heinz Co. is divesting its North American coffee business to private equity firm One Rock Capital Partners, LLC at an enterprise value of $650 million. The company will keep a 30% non-controlling equity stake in the coffee unit and use the net cash proceeds to pay down debt. The divestment is part of Kraft Heinz's efforts to simplify and strengthen its portfolio, allowing it to concentrate its capital and management attention on brands with greater potential for growth.

On this episode of Stock Movers:
- US equity index futures erased losses as the Democratic sweep in the midterms was seen as largely priced into equity markets, which had fallen in the run-up to the vote on concerns that the artificial intelligence buildout would face greater regulatory scrutiny.
- Investors initially saw a Democratic wave as a potential setback for stocks given the prospect of tighter regulatory scrutiny, particularly of high-growth technology and artificial intelligence companies. Treasuries, meanwhile, stand to benefit if political gridlock limits further tax cuts and government spending, easing concerns about federal borrowing.
- Shares of Tesla and Space Exploration Technologies Corp. dropped in after-hours trading as early US midterm election results pointed toward a decisive win by Democrats.
