☆ Activist Petrus Advisers has a plan to help lift Criteo’s share price. Here’s how it might unfold
▼ + stars: | 2024-03-09 | by ( Kenneth Squire | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +8 min

Criteo operates across three segments – marketing solutions, retail media, and Iponweb – but generated 83% of its $1.95 billion of revenue in 2023 from the marketing solutions segment. To many in the investor community, this was the death knell for cookies leading to uncertainty for Criteo's largest segment. Additionally, the company's retail media segment is a very appealing and growing business using software as a service for e-commerce companies. Petrus will likely nominate outside directors to the board as they rarely propose Petrus insiders for board seats. If it does not settle, Petrus has shown that they are willing to take a proxy fight to a vote.

Dividend stocks usually take a hit when they decrease their payouts, but investors may not want to count some of them out, according to Morgan Stanley. While many companies instituted large dividend decreases, there are several that announced dividend cuts of 30% or less. Shares of Annaly are up 1% in 2024, and the dividend yield is 13.3%. That's about a 20% quarter-over-quarter decrease, per Morgan Stanley. Shares are up 10% this year, and they offer a dividend yield of 0.4%.

"This is too much," Cramer said, referring to Super Micro's stock surge. Arm Holdings is another Nvidia-adjacent investment idea, Cramer said.

Cars sit parked in front of a Macy's store at Bay Fair Mall on February 27, 2024 in San Leandro, California. Arkhouse Management, a real-estate-focused investing firm said on Sunday it and Brigade Capital Management have raised their offer for Macy's after the department store chain rebuffed their prior proposal as too low. "The Macy's Inc Board will carefully review and evaluate the latest proposal," Macy's said in a separate statement. Like other legacy department store operators, Macy's has struggled to compete against younger, online competitors or peers with smaller brick-and-mortar footprints. This has given Arkhouse and Brigade an opening to put pressure on Macy's to explore a sale.

☆ Woman Could Have Prevented Great Recession; Ignored by Wall Street Men

The story of Brooksley Born is not only the tale of a remarkable regulator whose Cassandra-like warnings — if heeded — could've prevented the great financial crisis from exploding into raging, ruinous enormity. Not long after she assumed chairmanship of the CFTC, Born started to feel a lingering unease with the rapidly expanding derivatives market. So to Rubin, Born was more of an inconvenience than anything, and she certainly wasn't in his club. Not long after, Treasury officials lobbied Congress to pass legislation preventing the CFTC from being able to regulate the OTC derivatives market. In the months and years that followed, it became increasingly hard to deny that the multi-trillion-dollar OTC derivatives market was the root cause of the great financial crisis.

Macy's on Tuesday said sales fell nearly 2% in the holiday quarter, as the 166-year-old department store operator unveiled its strategy to get back to growth. Macy's plans to close about 150 unproductive locations and to prioritize investing in about 350 other namesake locations. In the fiscal year that starts in early 2025, Macy's said it expects low-single digit comparable sales growth on an annual basis, including owned, licensed and marketplace sales. The namesake store's comparable sales on an owned-plus-licensed basis dropped by 4.7%, as the women's shoes and cold weather apparel and accessories categories struggled. At Bloomingdale's, comparable sales declined 1.6% on an owned-plus-licensed basis, as the men's and designer handbag businesses came in soft.

In a job interview, your body language can make or break your chances of landing an offer. This means that, in a job interview, how you speak is just as important as what you say, says Bert Bean, CEO of the staffing firm Insight Global. Bean has interviewed hundreds of job applicants in his 19-year career as a recruiter-turned-CEO. Showing that you are energized and enthusiastic about a role is the top "green flag" hiring managers look for in a job interview, Shekhinah Bass, an executive at Goldman Sachs, told CNBC Make It in August. It's important to note, however, that body language isn't the only way to show your enthusiasm or engagement during a job interview.
