On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Prada (PRDSY) shares are higher after it agreed to acquire Versace from Capri for $1.38 billion in cash in a deal aimed at strengthening its position as Italy’s largest fashion group. The Milanese company, controlled by billionaire designer Miuccia Prada and her husband Patrizio Bertelli, expects the transaction to close in the second half of this year, the companies said Thursday. Bloomberg News reported on March 2 that Prada was near a deal to buy Versace from Capri Holdings Ltd., which paid $1.8 billion for the brand in 2018.
- Walmart (WMT) shares are down as the company has asked price stickers get left off packages in China after the round of tariff increases. Walmart declined to comment on the news after yesterday's Analyst Day, in which the CEO said there are real time decisions to be made.
- Amazon (AMZN) shares are lower after CEO Andy Jassy says in his annual letter to shareholders that the company has to operate like the “world’s largest startup” as it works to meet demand for artificial intelligence and cut bureaucracy in its ranks. The company also recently revealed a long-delayed update to Alexa set to give the voice assistant more fluent conversational powers. 
- US Steel (X) shares are lower this morning after President Trump said he opposed a Japanese company from buying the American steelmaker, and says it's a company that should remain in America. He said US Steel is a 'very special" company and does not want it to go anywhere but America.
