• Vail Resorts (MTN) shares rose the most since November 2020 after the ski resort operator said Executive Chairperson Rob Katz will return to the role of chief executive officer, replacing Kirsten Lynch, who stepped down. Lynch, who is also leaving the company’s board, will remain in an advisory role, the company said Tuesday. Katz, 58, served as CEO of the ski resort operator from 2006 to 2021.
• Stellantis (STLA) shares moved lower after the Detroit automaker appointed its Americas head Antonio Filosa as chief executive officer, relying on an experienced company insider to turn around the automaker after former boss Carlos Tavares was forced out over slumping sales and profit. Filosa, 51, will take the helm at the maker of Jeep sport utility vehicles and Fiat cars on June 23, Stellantis said Wednesday. He was promoted to head the company’s North American operations in October as part of a broader shake-up in the waning days of Tavares’ tenure, and has been with the group for more than two decades.
