Charter-Cox Merger; Vistra Plant Purchase; Applied Materials Slides

On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Charter Communications (CHTR) is higher this morning after agreeing to merge with Cox Communications in a deal that values Cox at an enterprise value of about $34.5 billion. The deal comprised of $21.9 billion of equity and $12.6 billion of net debt and other obligations
- Vistra (VST) is also up this morning on an M&A deal. It agreed to buy seven natural gas-fired power plants for $1.9 billion to feed the growing demand for electricity from artificial intelligence. The acquisition is part of a trend of power generators buying gas-fired plants to meet the anticipated demand from energy-intensive data centers running AI applications.
- Applied Materials (AMAT) is lower this morning after forecasting sales of about $7.2 billion in the fiscal third quarter, with a profit of approximately $2.35 a share. The company is adjusting to restrictions on sales to China, one of its biggest markets, and the impact of US tariffs, which is making it harder to project future revenue. Despite uncertainty, Applied Materials' management believes the industry is in a historic period of expansion, driven by the rapid spread of semiconductors and the AI boom.
