Vice President Kamala Harris is nearing a head-to-head matchup against former President Donald Trump in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">2024 presidential election.</a>
The matchup comes after President Joe Biden withdrew from the race. Early polling data show a close race between Harris and Trump with the vice president gaining support that Biden lost.
What Happened: Prior to Biden dropping out of the 2024 election race, Trump's lead had been growing in polls and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting/24/07/39868243/2024-election-betting-odds-joe-biden-has-8-chance-of-winning-according-to-sportsbooks-pred">betting odds from sportsbooks</a> and prediction markets in the head-to-head battle against the current president.
A new Morning Consult <a href="https://pro.morningconsult.com/analysis/kamala-harris-biden-campaign-polling">poll </a>shows how voters would vote in the expected head-to-head matchup of Trump and Harris.
The new poll shows the following results from voters polled after Biden made his announcement on July 21 through July 23.
Kamala Harris: 45%
Donald Trump: 47%
Someone Else: 5%
Don't Know: 4%
The poll found that 65% of Democratic voters support Harris as the top option for the nomination and 59% said she had the best chance of the Democratic candidates used in the poll to beat Trump in the 2024 election.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom ranked second among Democratic candidates that should get the nomination and have the best chance of beating Trump at 7% and 9% respectively.
The poll of voters also listed several hypothetical head-to-head matchups of Democratic candidates against Trump with Harris performing better than the likes of Pete Buttigieg (39% to 46%), Newsom (39% to 47%), Gretchen Whitmer (39% to 47%) and Josh Shapiro (37% to 46%).

Could This Animated Show, &#8216;Veep,&#8217; &#8216;Barbie&#8217; Foreshadow Kamala Harris Winning 2024 Election</a>
Why It's Important: While Harris trails Trump by 2-points, she has gained support <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39851267/trump-vs-biden-former-president-posts-largest-2024-election-lead-since-february-does-kamala-harr">compared to Biden</a> and ranks well with several key demographics.
Here are some of the key voter groups and how Biden and Harris compare versus Trump:
<ul>
<li>Male voters: Harris -5 points, Biden -12 points</li>
<li>Female voters: Harris 0 (even), Biden -2 points</li>
<li>Independent voters: Harris +5 points, Biden -6 points</li>
<li>Black voters: Harris +54 points, Biden +39 points</li>
<li>Hispanic voters: Harris +8 points, Biden +4 points</li>
<li>White voters: Harris -14 points, Biden -17 points</li>
</ul>
Harris ranks ahead of Biden on all the demographics above and ranks ahead of Trump on the key independent voters demographic that could play a large role in the 2024 presidential election.
Last week's poll saw Trump with a four-point lead over Biden, a lead that grew to six-points later in the week ahead of the Republican National Convention.
A key for the 2024 election could be voter turnout. Twenty-seven percent of Democrats said they are "much more motivated" to vote in the election, compared to 24% that answered the same before Biden dropped out.
Going forward, 63% of voters say Biden should finish his current presidential term, with 30% saying the president should resign and Harris should take over.
Interestingly enough, with Biden dropping out of the race, some voters think Trump should also reconsider. Twenty-seven percent of Republican voters said Trump should be replaced as the party's candidate.

French luxury businessman Bernard Arnault is poised to see a significant drop in his fortune, potentially by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37768771/jeff-bezos-and-bernard-arnault-lead-billionaires-in-net-worth-but-their-journeys-could-not-be-anymor">several billion dollars</a>.
Nearly half of Arnault&#8217;s wealth is tied to his stake in LVMH-Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton (OTCPK: LVMHF), which saw a nearly 5% decline in over-the-counter shares after earnings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/bernard-arnault">fell short of expectations. </a>
The tycoon&#8217;s losses could now enable Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) CEO Mark Zuckerberg to inch further closer to Arnault&#8217;s position as the third-richest person in the world, according to Bloomberg&#8217;s billionaires ranking.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">LVMH Misses Street Estimates</h3>
In the first half of 2024, LVMH reported revenue of $44.64 billion. It fell short of estimates by about 1.4%. Earnings per share were reported at $16.01, below the anticipated $16.365.
These figures have raised concerns about the luxury sector, which is often seen as recession-proof but now shows signs of vulnerability.
"The results for the first half of the year reflect LVMH's remarkable resilience, backed by the strength of its Maisons and the responsiveness of its teams in a climate of economic and geopolitical uncertainty,&#8221; said Arnault, chairman and CEO of LVMH. 
He added, &#8220;In a year marked by our partnership with the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games&#8230; the Group approaches the second half of the year with confidence, and will count on the agility and talent of its teams to further strengthen its global leadership position in luxury goods in 2024.&#8221;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wines &amp; Spirits Struggle, Watches &amp; Jewelry Under Pressure</h3>
The Wines &amp; Spirits division experienced a 9% organic revenue decline in the first half of 2024, with profit from recurring operations down 26%. 
This decline was driven by decreased Champagne sales and weak local demand for Hennessy cognac in China, reflecting broader challenges in key markets. 
The Watches &amp; Jewelry division also faced difficulties, with a 3% organic revenue decline and a 19% drop in profit from recurring operations, significantly impacted by exchange rate fluctuations. Despite these challenges, Tiffany &amp; Co. continued to shine with its iconic lines and a new campaign that received a warm reception. 
The new Tiffany Titan collection by Pharrell Williams generated exceptional interest, highlighting the brand&#8217;s ability to innovate and attract new audiences.
TAG Heuer, on the other hand, strengthened its ties with motorsports through the successful relaunch of its historic Formula 1 collection, showing resilience in its niche market.
The Perfumes &amp; Cosmetics division recorded a 6% organic revenue growth in the first half of 2024. This growth was driven by the ongoing success of its flagship lines. Christian Dior delivered a robust performance across all product categories, reinforcing its leadership position in strategic markets.
Sauvage maintained its status as the world's leading fragrance, while J'adore continued to thrive. 
The new Miss Dior Parfum edition also achieved strong growth, showcasing the brand&#8217;s enduring appeal and innovative marketing strategies.

Bank of America analysts have expressed optimism about the cruise line industry ahead of upcoming earnings reports, forecasting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cruise-lines">potential stock price increases.</a>
The analysts highlighted that U.S. airlines are facing pricing challenges due to overcapacity and demand concerns, as noted by Ryanair in their latest earnings report.
&#8220;We view cruise as more insulated from the airline trends given longer booking curves (9+ months vs 3 months)&nbsp;and&nbsp;different supply dynamics,&#8221; Andrew G. Didora, CFA, wrote in a note published Tuesday. 
The expert sees minimal risk to near-term earnings and expects cruise companies to continue reporting strong fundamentals this earnings season, similar to Carnival Corp.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCL#NYSE">CCL</a>) recent solid results and raised guidance at the end of June.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bank of America Raised Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Price Targets</h3>
Royal Caribbean Cruise Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCL#NYSE">RCL</a>) is set to announce its Q2 2024 earnings this Thursday, July 25.
&#8220;We believe our current&nbsp;RCL&nbsp;estimates are reasonable ahead of results,&#8221; Didora said. Bank of America estimates a net yield of +11.0% in Q2 2024, slightly above the high end of guidance at +10-10.5%.
Given the strong trends anticipated in the cruise sector, Bank of America has raised the price objective for Royal Caribbean Cruise Ltd. to $172, while maintaining a Neutral rating.
Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NCLH#NYSE">NCLH</a>) hosted an investor day at the end of May, and Bank of America anticipates similar messaging in the July 31 earnings call: focusing on deleveraging, keeping unit costs below inflation, and achieving mid-single digit net yield growth. 
Bank of America&#8217;s full-year 2024 estimated EBITDA is $2.3 billion (aligning with the Street and slightly above the guidance of $2.25 billion), with their Q2 2024 EPS estimate slightly ahead of guidance at 33 cents compared to the guidance of 32 cents (Street 34 cents).
For Q3 2024, they forecast net yields of +5.9% versus the Street&#8217;s +5%, with EPS of 94 cents compared to the Street&#8217;s 90 cents.
Bank of America has raised the price objective to $23 as they increase their target multiple, reflecting the continued strong industry trends, while maintaining a Neutral rating.

Bank Of America Raises Projections For Cruise Line Stocks: 'More Insulated From The Airline Trends'

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is reportedly making its debut on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/xbox-game-pass">Xbox Game Pass this week</a>.
Insider Gaming&#8217;s Tom Henderson is <a href="https://insider-gaming.com/modern-warfare-3-xbox-game-pass-july-24/">citing</a> sources claiming that the game will be available on the subscription service on July 24.
This development follows earlier rumors from Windows Central&#8217;s Jez Corden, who hinted at the game&#8217;s arrival on Game Pass in July.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/24/07/39805048/black-ops-6-first-multi-platform-beta-in-franchise-history-all-you-need-to-know">Black Ops 6: First Multi-Platform Beta In Franchise History — All You Need To Know</a>
The upcoming release marks a significant moment for Microsoft Corp.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) Game Pass, as it will be the first Call of Duty title to launch on the platform. While Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 was speculated to be the initial offering, Modern Warfare 3 has taken the spotlight.
Modern Warfare 3, the latest installment in Activision&#8217;s renowned first-person shooter series, is a reboot of the beloved sub-series. It continues the franchise&#8217;s tradition of delivering high-octane, multiplayer action.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Price Hikes For Xbox Game Pass</h3>
The timing of Modern Warfare 3&#8217;s Game Pass release coincides with recent announcements from Xbox regarding <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/24/07/39857656/ftc-criticizes-microsoft-over-xbox-game-pass-price-increase-and-degraded-standard-tier">price increases for the subscription service. </a>
The Ultimate tier will see a $3 increase in its monthly fee. The Game Pass Console tier will be replaced by Xbox Game Pass Standard, costing subscribers $14.99 per month.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Impact Of Modern Warfare 3&#8217;s Game Pass Debut</h3>
The addition of Modern Warfare 3 to Game Pass is likely to bolster the service&#8217;s appeal, especially amid the recent price hikes. 
Game Pass has been a cornerstone of Xbox&#8217;s strategy. It offers a vast library of games for a monthly fee, and the inclusion of high-profile titles like Call of Duty is a significant draw for subscribers.

A movie about a U.S. Senator was one of the most watched films on streaming platform Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) over the past week. The renewed interest is related to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">2024 presidential election.</a>
What Happened: Former President Donald Trump selected Senator J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) as<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39780777/trump-picks-senator-j-d-vance-as-running-mate-musk-says-great-choice-for-vp"> his running mate</a> in the 2024 election.
Prior to being a member of the Senate, Vance was a venture capitalist and gained national fame as the author of the bestselling memoir "Hillbilly Elegy."

The 2016 memoir was turned into a movie that Netflix had the distribution rights to and now streams on their platform.
Vance's book, as well as the film adaptation, tells the story of his upbringing in rural Kentucky and later in blue-collar Ohio.
"From a former marine and Yale Law School graduate, a powerful account of growing up in a poor Rust Belt town that offers a broader, probing look at the struggles of America's white working class," a description of the book reads.
Since Vance was announced as Trump's vice-presidential pick, the movie saw strong interest from Netflix subscribers.
The streaming platform <a href="https://www.netflix.com/tudum/top10">announced </a>its top 10 most-viewed titles Tuesday and "Hillbilly Elegy" ranked eighth for the week of July 15 through July 21 among English-language films.

Ranking in the top 10 for the first time since Netflix began publishing its weekly list, the film had 9.4 million hours viewed and 4.8 million views.
The movie adaptation of the book starred&nbsp;Glenn Close, Amy Adams&nbsp;and&nbsp;Gabriel Basso, who portrayed Vance. Close was nominated for an Academy Award for Supporting Actress. The film also received an Academy Award nomination for Best Makeup &amp; Hairstyling.
Netflix could benefit from having the rights to the film, as searches on Google have soared for "Hillbilly Elegy."
Google Trends <a href="https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=today%201-m&amp;geo=US&amp;q=hillbilly%20elegy&amp;hl=en">shows </a>that the top states searching for the movie/book were Kentucky, West Virginia, Tennessee, Alabama and South Carolina.
