NIQ valued at $6.1 billion as shares dip in NYSE debut

(Reuters) -NIQ Global's shares fell 3.6% in their NYSE debut on Wednesday, giving the Advent-backed consumer insights company a valuation of $6.1 billion. The lukewarm reception marks a setback in an otherwise strong run for IPOs as solid equity markets and upbeat debuts had encouraged investors to look past tariff-related volatility. NIQ's stock opened at $20.25 per share, compared with the IPO price of $21 per share.

Why Shares of Kohl's Are Sinking Today

Key Points Kohl's has become a meme stock. Investors recently noticed the stock had close to 50% short interest. The company has struggled as of late. 10 stocks we like better than Kohl's › After rocketing nearly 38% higher yesterday, shares of Kohl's (NYSE: KSS) traded close to 16% lower, as of 12:12 a.m. ET today. Shares bobbed and weaved in violent trading sessions sparked by interest from retail investors, who view Kohl's as a meme stock. Meme mania is back With the market at all-time highs, investors are back in on meme stocks and appear to have targeted several names with high short interest that seem ripe for a short squeeze. Other stocks that have become meme stocks include Opendoor, Krispy Kreme, and GoPro. Kohl's had one of the highest percentages of its public float shorted at close to 50%, making it the ideal candidate for meme investors to identify. Kohl's was the topic of several threads on the popular sub-Reddit WallStreetBets on Tuesday. Kohl's has struggled as competition from e-commerce and other discount retailers has cut into the company's business. Recently, analysts at Goldman Sachs raised their price target from $5 per share to $7 on "reacceleration in top-line growth and cleaner inventories." But the stock has soared past that level, due to the meme rally. Of the 12 Wall Street analysts that have issued research reports on the stock over the last three months, five had a hold rating on the company, while seven say sell, according to TipRanks. The average price target implies about 43% downside, as of this writing. Buckle up As mentioned, Kohl's no longer trades on any kind of fundamentals and now is being propelled by social media-driven exuberance. There's no predicting where the stock will go or in which direction, so investors should avoid the name. But if you do invest, only invest what you can afford to lose.

EU Diplomats See Progress Toward US Trade Deal With 15% Tariffs

(Bloomberg) -- The European Union and the US are progressing toward an agreement that would set a 15% tariff for most products, according to diplomats briefed on the negotiations.

Steel and aluminum imports above a certain quota would face the 50% duty, one of the diplomats added. The diplomats said that while the EU is optimistic that a deal can be reached, they are also cautious that any final agreement will need sign off from US President Donald Trump and his ultimate decision is difficult to predict.
