Hermès Plunges, Standard Life Climbs, ASML Fluctuates

Today's biggest winners and losers in the stock market.
On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Hermès shares tumbled the most on record after the Birkin bag maker’s sales growth slowed, hit by the disruption from the conflict in the Middle East like many of its peers in the luxury goods industry.
- Standard Life agreed to buy the UK arm of Dutch insurer Aegon Ltd. for £2 billion ($2.7 billion) as the savings firm looks to grab a bigger slice of Britain’s pensions market.
- ASML’s raised full-year sales guidance confirms strong demand from chipmakers, but that has been anticipated by many investors ahead of the report, analysts said. Some see the assurance that at least 80 low-NA EUV tools expected to be delivered next year as a positive, though Barclays noted that some bullish estimates are even higher. The stock trades sideways at the open.
