Today's biggest winners and losers in the stock market.
On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Genuine Parts (GPC) slipped after it announced it would split itself in two, separating its automotive parts and repairs business and its industrial distributing arm into separate companies. The company is best known for its Napa Auto Parts retail operations. Genuine Parts in September struck a deal with activist investor Elliott to add new directors to the board.
- Omnicom (OMC) shares surged over the week, rising as much as 12% in trading on Thursday for its biggest intraday advance since February 2022. Traders were enthusiastic about the advertising agency after it reported fourth-quarter revenue that beat estimates. The company’s board also authorized a $5 billion share buyback.
- Blue Owl (OWL) shares continue to tumble after it restricted withdrawals from one of its retail focused private credit funds, a fresh blow to a sector that’s faced heightened scrutiny in recent weeks. Blue Owl’s decision highlights a key risk for retail investors drawn to private credit: such funds offer less liquidity than public markets, and firms can block their investors from cashing in.
