Pinterest profit miss overshadows Gen Z, AI-driven growth
By Jaspreet Singh (Reuters) -Pinterest (PINS) missed analysts' estimates for second-quarter profit on Thursday, overshadowing robust revenue and user growth, and sending its shares down over 12% in premarket traiding on Friday. The social media platform reported adjusted profit per share of 33 cents, below analysts' average estimate of 35 cents, according to data compiled by LSEG. However, its quarterly revenue grew 17% to $998.2 million, beating expectations of $974.8 million. The company's stock has gained about 35% so far this year. The growth was boosted by a surge in Gen Z users—who now represent more than half of Pinterest's user base— and adoption of its AI-powered ad suite, Performance+, which has appealed to advertisers seeking personalized and automated campaigns. CEO Bill Ready said adoption of Performance+ among mid-market advertisers was accelerating, cutting campaign creation time in half. Still, Pinterest forecast third-quarter revenue between $1.03 billion and $1.05 billion, broadly in line with estimates of $1.03 billion. The revenue growth outlook "is strong but not accelerating from second quarter's 17%," said eMarketer analyst Jeremy Goldman. "In a high-expectation environment, even a small gap between reality and euphoria can trigger a sell-the-news reaction." Rivals Meta and Reddit posted upbeat second quarter performance last week. In contrast, Snap reported its slowest quarterly revenue growth in over a year. The termination of the "de minimis" exemption - a U.S. duty-free import provision - led to tighter ad budgets for smaller platforms such as Snap, as marketers preferred to larger platforms with wider reach. Pinterest CFO Julia Donnelly said the change prompted Asia-based e-commerce retailers to reduce their U.S. ad spending, though some shifted spending to Europe and other international markets. The San Francisco-based company's ad pricing fell 25% year over year, as a larger share of ad impressions now comes from international markets, where ad prices are generally lower than in the U.S. Pinterest has third-party ad deals with Google, and ad platform Magnite. The platform's global monthly active users (MAUs) rose 11% from a year earlier to 578 million, topping estimates of 553 million, but user growth slowed to 8 million additions in the quarter from 17 million in the first. "MAUs are approaching a ceiling level of maturity, and the market is maturing rapidly despite the incremental implementation of AI to drive user growth," Zephirin Group analyst Lenny Zephirin said.

Intel CEO responds after Trump calls for resignation
Intel (INTC) chief Lip-Bu Tan responded late Thursday, calling reports about his career "misinformation." In a letter to staff, he said the company was engaging with the Trump administration. 'There has been a lot of misinformation circulating about my past roles . . . I want to be absolutely clear: Over 40+ years in the industry, I've built relationships around the world and across our diverse ecosystem — and I have always operated within the highest legal and ethical standards,' Tan wrote. President Trump early Thursday called for the resignation of Intel (INTC) CEO Lip-Bu Tan in a post on social media. "The CEO of INTEL is highly CONFLICTED and must resign, immediately," Trump wrote on Truth Social, the social media platform he owns. "There is no other solution to this problem. Thank you for your attention to this problem!" Tan was named Intel's CEO back in March, taking over from Pat Gelsinger's tumultuous tenure that saw the company's stock plummet and the chipmaker fall behind in the AI race. Investors cheered Tan's appointment, with the stock rising as much as 15% after the news, and Wall Street analysts as well as current and former executives and employees saw Tan as the best possibility to succeed in turning around the troubled company. Intel stock climbed 0.9% premarket on Friday in the aftermath of Trump's post. Intel issued a statement following Trump's comments, emphasizing the its commitment to "advancing US national and economic security interests" and to making investments "aligned with the President's America First agenda," including domestic semiconductor manufacturing. "We look forward to our continued engagement with the Administration," the statement concludes. In April, a Reuters report detailed Tan's wide-ranging investments in Chinese companies made through his VC firm, Walden International. The outlet found that the firm "remains invested in 20 funds and companies alongside Chinese government funds or state-owned enterprises, according to Chinese corporate databases." Tan has served on boards and in various executive roles at 14 firms in the semiconductor space, most notably including his tenure as CEO of Cadence Design Systems, a chip design software company. Trump's post came a day after one of his top Senate allies, Republican Tom Cotton, wrote a letter to Intel's board chair questioning Tan's China ties. "Intel is required to be a responsible steward of American taxpayer dollars and to comply with applicable security regulations," Cotton wrote, pointing to Intel's nearly $8 billion grant from the CHIPS Act. "Mr. Tan's associations raise questions about Intel's ability to fulfill these obligations." Intel did not immediately respond to Yahoo Finance's request for comment. "Lip-Bu is a legend in the semi industry, and his ties to many companies, both in and out of China, are well known," Bernstein analyst Stacy Rasgon wrote in a note to investors Thursday following Trump's Truth Social post. "We don't believe Lip-Bu is 'conflicted,' though given the nature of this administration the [Lip-Bu Tan's] China ties ... are seemingly creating an increasingly bad look," Rasgon added. "And unfortunately, unlike other tech CEOs Lip-Bu does not appear to have cultivated the kind of personal relationship with Trump that would help to assuage his ire." Intel shares are up just 1.8% for the year, lagging other chip stocks such as AMD (AMD), Broadcom (AVGO), and market leader Nvidia (NVDA). In late July, Intel stock sank after the company reported that it would cut its workforce by 15% in an attempt to pare costs as it struggles to revive its ailing chip manufacturing business. Intel both designs and manufactures chips for itself and has, in recent years, tried to produce chips for third-party customers to boost its manufacturing business. So far, efforts have fallen short. The company said in its latest earnings report that it's scrapping an attempt to make its latest manufacturing process technology, called 18A, available to its customers, something analysts had been calling crucial to its turnaround efforts and ability to catch up to rival chip manufacturer TSMC (TSM).

US Sparks Fresh Turmoil in Gold With Surprise Import Tariff
(Bloomberg) -- A US move to put tariffs on imports of one-kilogram and 100-ounce gold bars is unleashing fresh turmoil in the global bullion market and threatening to upend trade flows from Switzerland and other key refining hubs. All Hail the Humble Speed Hump Three Deaths Reported as NYC Legionnaires' Outbreak Spreads Mayor Asked to Explain $1.4 Billion of Wasted Johannesburg Funds Major Istanbul Projects Are Stalling as City Leaders Sit in Jail What England's New National Cycling Network Needs to Get Rolling The US Customs and Border Protection agency has clarified that the gold bars face tariffs and are not exempted as the industry had initially understood, according to people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be identified. The decision was first reported by the Financial Times. Gold futures in New York surged to a record high, as traders, analysts and executives across the industry were left reeling. The move could upend global trade flows from Switzerland and other key trading and refining hubs including London and Hong Kong. Switzerland's gold exports have become a flashpoint in its trade negotiations with the US, after a surge in shipments earlier this year caused the US's trade deficit with the country to spike. Traders and analysts are scrambling to understand the situation — whether the tariffs are already in force, if they apply to all countries, or even how they might be avoided. Some questioned whether the dramatic change could be an error on the CBP's part, and suggested it may be subject to legal challenges. Bullion traders had expected gold bars of one kilogram and 100 ounces to be exempt from Trump's other tariffs, including the shock 39% country rate he put on Switzerland. But the CBP decision instead placed those items under customs codes that are subject to levies, according to the FT, which cited a letter that laid out the ruling. 'Gold is moved back and forth between central banks and reserves around the world,' said Robert Gottlieb, a former precious metals trader and managing director at JPMorgan Chase & Co., referring to the bars. 'We never ever thought that it would be hit by a tariff.' The Trump administration has delivered many shocks as it builds a complex patchwork of different US import tariffs launched for varying reasons at different rates. Last month, US copper futures crashed after the White House unexpectedly spared refined metal — the most widely-traded product — from a 50% levy. Managers at two major gold refineries in Asia, who did not want to be named discussing sensitive information, said they are pausing shipments to the US until there is more clarity on the tariffs. One-kilo gold bars are the most common form traded on Comex, the world's largest gold futures market, and comprise the bulk of Switzerland's bullion exports to the US. The levy will add to troubles for Swiss President Karin Keller-Sutter after Trump handed Switzerland the highest country tariff among developed nations. She made an emergency trip to Washington on Thursday aimed at swaying the White House, but came away empty-handed after being denied a meeting with Trump. Dramatic Change The latest ruction adds to a tumultuous year for gold, and drove a spike in the premium of gold futures in New York over international prices on Friday. Contracts for December delivery jumped to a premium of more than $100 an ounce above the global benchmark for spot prices in London, as investors bet on the tariffs snarling imports. Imports and exports for all countries are classified by an intricate system of codes that are used to set the scope of any levies. The CBP letter, according to the FT, said the gold bars fall under code 7108.13.5500 rather than the non-tariffed 7108.12.10 as expected. That classifies them as a 'semi-manufactured' rather than 'unwrought' type of gold, according to the US International Trade Commission's website. It's unclear whether other types of gold bars, such as 400-ounce bullion that's the most-traded in London, will be subject to tariffs. If not, those could simply be shipped to the US and recast into one-kilogram blocks, said a manager of a major refinery, who declined to be named as they are not authorized to speak publicly. Such a scenario would still render the CME contract unviable, according to Nikos Kavalis, managing director at consultancy Metals Focus Ltd. 'The gap between the spot price and the futures price will be prone to issues of capacity. I just don't see that as being in anyone's best interest,' he said. 'I suspect that this is a misunderstanding or an error on the part of the customs authorities, or if not an error, let's say a poor assessment. I suspect it'll be legally challenged or lobbied.' --With assistance from Yvonne Yue Li.
