Pfizer, Cisco, Arch Capital And More: CNBC's 'Final Trades'

Australian iron ore mining giant Fortescue (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSUMF#OTC">FSUMF</a>) has hit the brakes on ambitious plans to transform into a green hydrogen leader. Management has announced an overhaul after a turbulent period that saw multiple<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/06/39410710/fortescues-transition-to-green-energy-rocked-by-falling-iron-ore-prices-executive-turnover"> senior executive departures</a>.
While iron ore still generates most of the company's revenue, its founder and executive chairman, Andrew Forrest, has been steering towards green technologies. Still, a Fortescue spokesperson<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-17/fortescue-cuts-700-jobs-and-appoints-new-chief-financial-officer"> told</a> Bloomberg that the company&#8217;s goal of producing 15 million tons of green hydrogen annually by 2030 has been put on hold owing to higher energy prices.
In a statement on Wednesday, Fortescue announced the job cuts as part of an effort to simplify the business structure. However, the company did not specify which departments would be affected by these layoffs.
&#8220;It&#8217;s a business that&#8217;s run hard around its decarbonization strategy. And whilst they haven&#8217;t pointed to which divisions are affected, that part of the business has continued to burn a lot of capital,&#8221; said Jarden Securities analyst Jon Bishop.
Now Read:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39796005/rio-tinto-reports-strong-first-half-with-major-gains-in-iron-ore-bauxite-copper-lithium-production"> Rio Tinto Reports Strong First Half With Major Gains In Iron Ore, Bauxite, Copper, Lithium Production</a>
Green hydrogen, produced by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen molecules using renewable energy, has yet to be commercially viable anywhere in the world. Fortescue currently produces a relatively small amount at a plant in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, and recently committed to three additional projects with an investment of around $750 million.
&#8220;Our vision for Fortescue has not changed,&#8221; Forrest said. &#8220;I truly believe in the power that green hydrogen will unlock for decarbonizing hard-to-abate industry,&#8221; he noted, adding that Fortescue would continue to focus on green electricity in the Pilbara region and North Africa and green hydrogen in places like Brazil and Norway.
Per AFR's<a href="https://www.afr.com/chanticleer/reality-bites-for-forrest-s-hydrogen-dream-investors-won-t-mind-20240717-p5juid"> report</a>, Forrest also noted that the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East have increased global energy prices, making large-scale green hydrogen production unviable. &#8220;In that environment, you&#8217;re not going to bring in major sources of green hydrogen, which relies on cheap energy prices,&#8221; he told the newspaper.
Despite these setbacks, Fortescue remains committed to its green energy projects. The company is advancing plans for an advanced manufacturing facility in Michigan and has established an office in New York to attract further investment into its green energy ventures.
In addition to the restructuring, Fortescue announced key executive appointments. Apple Paget, who has been acting as chief financial officer for the past 11 months, will assume the role permanently. Meanwhile, Shelley Robertson, who joined Fortescue nine months ago as chief corporate officer, has been appointed chief operating officer.

Citigroup Upgrades VF to Buy, Raises Price Target to $20

American Express Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>) will release its second-quarter financial results, before the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/axp/earnings">opening bell on Friday, July 19.</a>
Analysts expect the New York-based company to report quarterly earnings at $3.25 per share, up from $2.89 per share in the year-ago period. American Express will post revenue of $16.59 billion, compared to $15.05 billion a year earlier, according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
On July 16, Compass Point analyst David Rochester initiated coverage on American Express with a Neutral rating and announced a price target of&nbsp;$260.
With the recent buzz around American Express, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company's dividends, too. As of now, American Express offers an annual dividend yield of 1.12%. That&#8217;s a quarterly dividend amount of 70 cents per share ($2.80 a year).
So, how can investors exploit its dividend yield to pocket a regular $500 monthly?
To earn $500 per month or $6,000 annually from dividends alone, you would need an investment of approximately $535,664 or around 2,143 shares. For a more modest $100 per month or $1,200 per year, you would need $107,233 or around 429 shares.
Read This: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39814468/alphabet-crowdstrike-and-2-other-stocks-insiders-are-selling">Alphabet, CrowdStrike And 2 Other Stocks Insiders Are Selling</a>
To calculate: Divide the desired annual income ($6,000 or $1,200) by the dividend ($2.80 in this case). So, $6,000 / $2.80 = 2,143 ($500 per month), and $1,200 / $2.80 = 429 shares ($100 per month).
Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as the dividend payment and the stock price both fluctuate over time.
How that works: The dividend yield is computed by dividing the annual dividend payment by the stock&#8217;s current price.
For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and is currently priced at $50, the dividend yield would be 4% ($2/$50). However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). Conversely, if the stock price falls to $40, the dividend yield rises to 5% ($2/$40).
Similarly, changes in the dividend payment can impact the yield. If a company increases its dividend, the yield will also increase, provided the stock price stays the same. Conversely, if the dividend payment decreases, so will the yield.
AXP Price Action: Shares of American Express rose 0.1% to close at $249.96 on Wednesday.
