US import prices rebound in July on higher consumer goods costs
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. import prices rebounded in July, boosted by higher costs for consumer goods, the latest indication that inflation was poised to pick up because of tariffs. Import prices increased 0.4% last month after a downwardly revised 0.1% dip in June, the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics said on Friday. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast import prices, which exclude tariffs, unchanged after a previously reported 0.1% gain in June. Though import prices do not include tariffs, the elevated readings suggested exporting nations are not cutting prices to offset the impact of higher costs from duties on consumers. In the 12 months through July, import prices slipped 0.2% after falling 0.5% in June. Producer price data on Thursday showed a surge in goods prices excluding the volatile food and energy components, bolstering economists expectations that consumer inflation would accelerate in the months ahead, despite what has so far been a moderate tariff pass-through. Imported fuel prices increased 2.7% in July after rising 0.8% in June. Food prices decreased 0.1% after dropping 1.3% in the prior month. Excluding fuels and food, import prices advanced 0.3%. Core import prices eased 0.1% in June. In the 12 months through July, they increased 0.8%. That partly reflects dollar weakness against the currencies of the United States' main trade partners. The trade-weighted dollar is down about 6.7% this year. Prices for imported consumer goods excluding motor vehicles increased 0.4% last month after edging up 0.1% in June. Imported capital goods prices gained 0.1% while those for motor vehicles, parts and engines decreased 0.2%. Sign in to access your portfolio

HIMS: Hims & Hers Shares Sink After FTC Probe Details Emerge
Aug 15 - Hims & Hers Health (NYSE:HIMS) slipped about 3% in early trading on Friday after Bloomberg published fresh details about a Federal Trade Commission probe into the company's business practices. The report says the FTC opened an inquiry following consumer complaints that Hims & Hers makes it hard for customers to cancel subscriptions and questions the company's advertising practices. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 4 Warning Sign with HIMS. Hims & Hers first told investors about a regulatory review in July 2024, but Bloomberg's report adds new color on what regulators are investigating. According to people familiar with the matter, the agency looks at cancellation flows, disclosure language, and whether marketing crosses legal lines. The company hasn't released a new statement tied to the Bloomberg story. For investors, the short-term hit reflects the subscription model's vulnerability: when regulators probe cancellation or billing, churn can rise and trust can fall. Analysts will watch complaint volumes, any formal FTC subpoenas, and whether the firm needs to change its renewal mechanics or face penalties. Until that clarity arrives, expect volatility around HIMS shares as traders price regulatory risk into the stock. Based on the one year price targets offered by 13 analysts, the average target price for Hims & Hers Health Inc is $51.22 with a high estimate of $85.00 and a low estimate of $28.00. The average target implies a upside of +8.67% from the current price of $47.13. Based on GuruFocus estimates, the estimated GF Value for Hims & Hers Health Inc in one year is $36.25, suggesting a downside of -23.09% from the current price of $47.13. Gf value is Gurufocus' estimate of the fair value that the stock should be traded at. It is calculated based on the historical multiples the stock has traded at previously, as well as past business growth and the future estimates of the business' performance.
