돌아온 &#34;관세맨&#34; 도널드 트럼프 대통령이 무역 전쟁의 불을 다시 지피고 있다. 지금까지 그는 캐나다, 멕시코, 중국, 모든 철강 및 알루미늄 수입품에 대한 관세 부과를 위협했다. 트럼프가 캐나다와 멕시코에 대한 관세 부과를 일단 유보했지만, 중국에 대한 관세 부과가 발효되었고, 중국도 이에 대응했다.ㅎ

대통령 당선인 도널드 트럼프가 멕시코와 캐나다에서 수입하는 제품에 25%의 관세를 부과하고, 중국 제품에는 10%의 추가 관세를 부과하겠다고 제안했다. 이는 상당한 관세를 부과하는 것으로, 투자자들에게는 2019년 무역 전쟁으로 돌아가는 것을 의미할 수 있지만, 이번에는 상황이 더 심각하고 경제적 배경이 불안정하다.

Toy maker Hasbro Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAS#NASDAQ">HAS</a>) is tapping into a growing market segment, aiming to appeal to adults and teens, commonly referred to as &#8220;kidults,&#8221; <a target="_blank" href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/move-over-kids-hasbro-wants-adults-to-play-d64e10ea?mod=business_lead_story" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported </a>the Wall Street Journal. These mature customers are driving a surge in toy-related spending, with many shelling out hundreds of dollars on collectibles and intricate playthings.
The report cited that currently, approximately 60% of Hasbro&#8217;s revenue comes from individuals aged 13 and older, prompting the company to concentrate its growth efforts on this particular group.
This move comes after the company <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43847506/toy-maker-hasbros-q4-beat-estimates-as-demand-for-games-remains-strong" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported a 15% decline </a>in the fourth-quarter sales.
Recently, Hasbro has introduced a new strategic initiative, &#8216;Playing to Win,&#8217; which will guide the company through 2027.
With a focus on play-driven engagement and collaborative partnerships, Hasbro aims to increase its reach from over 500 million kids, families, and fans today to more than 750 million by 2027.

The company projects steady mid-single digit revenue growth and expects an annual improvement of 50-100 basis points in operating profit margin through 2027.
By that time, Hasbro anticipates its operational excellence program will generate $1 billion in gross cost savings, with around half of that contributing directly to its bottom line.
Also, Hasbro is optimistic about the impact of Chinese tariffs on its business, as it shifts manufacturing away from China, according to a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/20/hasbro-has-earnings-q4-2024.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">report </a>from CNBC.
The report highlighted that during its fourth-quarter earnings call, CFO Gina Goetter outlined the company&#8217;s 2025 guidance, which includes adjusted EBITDA of $1.1 billion to $1.15 billion, reflecting tariffs on China, Mexico, and Canada.
The report cited that Hasbro aims to reduce the percentage of toys sourced from China from 50% to below 40% in the next two years.
Price Action: HAS shares are trading higher by 0.73% at $59.73 at last check Friday.

Hasbro Focuses On Adult Toy Market Amid Declining Sales: Report

DA Davidson analyst Linda Bolton Weiser maintains Hasbro (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAS#NASDAQ">HAS</a>) with a Neutral and raises the price target from $73 to $75.

DA Davidson Maintains Neutral on Hasbro, Raises Price Target to $75

J.P. Morgan analyst Christopher Horvers reiterated an <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/HAS/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">Overweight rating</a> on the shares of Hasbro Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAS#NASDAQ">HAS</a>) and maintained a price forecast of $75.00.
HAS exceeded street expectations for the fourth quarter, in line with the analyst&#8217;s updated forecast, driven by strong performance in Consumer Products and Wizards, higher gross margins, and operating income <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43847506/toy-maker-hasbros-q4-beat-estimates-as-demand-for-games-remains-strong" rel="noreferrer noopener">15% above Consensus Metrix.</a>
The 2025 guidance projected EBITDA of $1.1-$1.15 billion versus the consensus of $1.143 billion, aligning with the analyst&#8217;s modestly below expectation view.
The fourth-quarter results provided enough upside to position HAS near the Street&#8217;s range for 2025. After resetting expectations following a tough third quarter, management expressed more optimism, with sales growth in Wizards (expected) and, importantly, Consumer Products (which the Street anticipated underperforming, but management showed confidence in).
This strengthened the outlook for Magic to achieve a record year, with Final Fantasy/Spider-Man contributing and a turnaround in the CP business beginning, partly due to the movie slate and a broader range of more affordable products, noted the analyst.

Additionally, ongoing cost-saving measures (such as design-to-value and corporate efficiencies) make the 2025 forecast achievable.
Adding to the positive outlook, management projected EBITDA of ~$1.4 billion in 2027, higher than the consensus estimate of $1.3 billion.
The analyst maintains an Overweight rating on HAS for the following reasons, including the analsyt&#8217; estimates being ahead of the Street&#8217;s, as the analyst believes consensus estimates for cost efficiency and digital gaming are too conservative, with both expected to increase heading into 2025.
Despite a shorter holiday season, the analyst sees the industry positioned for stronger growth this year, driven by the emergence of growth in lower-cost and shorter-replacement-cycle categories.
Retailers, especially Target Corp, are focusing on driving traffic through events, with toys playing a key role in their strategy.
By the end of 2025, the analyst anticipates the full impact of HAS&#8217;s $750 million cost-reduction initiative, while the consumer products segment should benefit from increased innovation, as well as growth in MTG driven by its Universes Beyond strategy (including Final Fantasy and Marvel, with continued momentum from MH3), and a similar flow-through from Go! product lines.
The price forecast of $75 is based on ~11x EV/EBITDA on the analyst&#8217;s 2026 estimates, slightly below where it currently trades on 2025 and its 3-5Y average multiple.
Price Action: HAS shares are trading lower by 2.34% at $65.98 at the last check Monday.

10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

The &#8220;tariff man&#8221; is back, with President Donald Trump renewing his trade war impulses. So far he&#8217;s threatened tariffs on Canada, Mexico, China, on all steel and aluminum imports. While Trump has relented, for now, on Canada and Mexico tariffs, the China tariffs have gone into effect, and China has responded in kind.
American companies do billions of dollars of business with China every year, and Chinese imports make up a considerable chunk of goods in the electronics, apparel, semiconductor, furniture, and toy industries here in the United States.
However, some companies have more pricing power than others. Firms with tight margins, ample competing substitutions, or inelastic demand may face consumer pushback on price increases.&nbsp;
Here are the five stocks that will suffer the most in a trade war with China.
Now, tariffs are simply import taxes charged on goods as they arrive at the border. A common misconception is that the exporting country pays tariffs, but tariffs are actually paid by the company importing the product as it crosses the border. Charging tariffs to the exporter would create a cluster headache as the government would be forced to collect taxes in various currencies; instead, the tax is charged to the imports and collected in US dollars.
Both left- and right-leaning economists agree that consumers eventually bear the tariff burden as companies pass on the cost increases to their customers. The companies that can least shift the burden to consumers that way are the ones that will suffer the most from tariffs.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Hasbro Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAS#NASDAQ">HAS</a>)</h2>
Thankfully, the holiday season has come and gone because toys and games could be getting more expensive in the next few months. Hasbro is a 100-year-old entertainment holding company that owns popular brands like Milton Bradley, Parker Bros, and Wizards of the Coast. The company makes popular games like Twister, Battleship, and Monopoly, along with toy lines like Nerf, Transformers, Power Rangers, GI Joe, and Play-Doh.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="319" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153651/HAS-1024x319.png" alt="" class="wp-image-775290" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153651/HAS-1024x319.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153651/HAS-300x93.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153651/HAS-768x239.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153651/HAS.png 1247w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Hasbro is on our sell list over rival Mattel due to its heavy reliance on Chinese factories to produce its goods, despite attempts to shift production to India or Vietnam over the last few years. Gross profits have been in annual decline since 2021, and while analysts are still primarily bullish, cracks are beginning to form. In January, Stifel cut its price target on HAS shares from $82 to $77.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">PDD Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>)</h2>
PDD Holdings is the United States equity of Chinese retail conglomerate Pinduoduo, which operates the discount merchandiser Temu. If you have a social media account, you've likely seen ads for Temu, which offers incredibly low pricing on a variety of merchandise, including clothes, sports jerseys, handbags, and other apparel.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="319" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153657/PDD-1024x319.png" alt="" class="wp-image-775291" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153657/PDD-1024x319.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153657/PDD-300x93.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153657/PDD-768x239.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153657/PDD.png 1247w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Temu is one of the companies that will be heavily impacted by the decision to remove the de minimus exemption on packages arriving from China or Hong Kong. The exemption calls for a refrain from duties and taxes on merchandise received at the border valued under $800, which would describe nearly all the orders arriving on US shores from Chinese retailers like Temu. (Note: Trump reversed the exemption decision late Friday.) Retaliatory tariffs are expected from China as well, and analysts from JP Morgan, Benchmark, and Jeffries have all reduced their PDD price targets since election day in the US.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>)</h2>
Even megacap tech stocks like Apple aren't safe from broad tariffs, especially considering how reliant the iPhone maker is on Chinese sales. And while putting a $3.5 trillion company on a sell list might seem bold, Apple has been under the microscope for the last few months. AAPL shares had a solid 2024 run, jumping from $165 in April to $260 by Christmas. But the company has started 2025 stuck in molasses, and shares are already down more than 8% year-to-date.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="319" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153703/AAPL-1024x319.png" alt="" class="wp-image-775292" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153703/AAPL-1024x319.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153703/AAPL-300x93.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153703/AAPL-768x239.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153703/AAPL.png 1247w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Chinese iPhone sales are the obvious cause for concern. During its recent earnings release, Apple reported that iPhone sales in China declined 18% in Q4 2024, while competitor Huawei saw a more than 15% bump in smartphone sales in the same period. Apple may be forced to offer new discounts on iPhones to restore sales growth, and the looming threat of tariff retaliation could put even more pressure on Tim Cook's tech giant.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">PVH Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PVH#NYSE">PVH</a>)</h2>
PVH has been dropping like a stone since cracking the $140 mark in December. The $140 price was the highest in over six years for PVH, but headwinds have rapidly materialized for the beleaguered apparel maker.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="319" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153708/PVH-1024x319.png" alt="" class="wp-image-775293" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153708/PVH-1024x319.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153708/PVH-300x93.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153708/PVH-768x239.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153708/PVH.png 1247w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
These tariffs will significantly impact production as PVH has 128 factories in China, 40 more than the next closest hub in Vietnam. The company has manufacturing locations in more than 30 nations, but the Chinese manufacturing output is crucial due to the high quantity of skilled workers employed. Nearshoring or reshoring wouldn't resolve this labor issue, and high-quality PVH brands like Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger should see the most significant price increases.
To make matters worse, China's Ministry of Commerce has now added PVH to its unreliable entities list and claims its practices "interfered with the operations of Chinese companies." Analysts at Wells Fargo agree with the concerns as they downgraded the stock from Overweight to Equal Weight last week and dropped their price target from $130 to $105.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Under Armour Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UA#NYSE">UA</a>)</h2>
Under Armour makes sports apparel and footwear, and its strong manufacturing presence in China has placed it squarely in the crosshairs of a trade war. UA executives have warned about pressure from tariffs since Donald Trump's election night victory. Under Armour has stated that only 15% of its production remains in China, but the company's tight margins and competition could spell problems for its bottom line.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="319" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153713/UA-1024x319.png" alt="" class="wp-image-775294" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153713/UA-1024x319.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153713/UA-300x93.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153713/UA-768x239.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/10153713/UA.png 1247w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
UA beat on earnings and revenue in the most recent February 6 conference call, but disappointing guidance sent shares tumbling. The stock lost more than 6.5% in the week of the earnings release as investors digested the guidance figures and tariff threats. No analyst covering the stock has updated their coverage since June 2024, but UA stock is clearly facing some serious headwinds as 2025 rolls along.

5 Stocks to Sell on the New China Trade War

When most people hear Hasbro Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAS#NASDAQ">HAS</a>) they think of the company's toys and games like Transformers, G.I. Joe, Monopoly, Nerf and Play-Doh. Thanks to a new entertainment announcement, investors could soon focus more on the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/02/25725395/100-upside-what-a-wizards-of-the-coast-spinoff-could-mean-for-hasbro">Wizards of the Coast division.</a>
What Happened: Hasbro Entertainment is launching a film and television universe based on the Magic: The Gathering game, which comes as the brand saw strong growth in<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41515616/monopoly-maker-hasbro-inventory-falls-39-in-q3-cfo-vows-to-finish-2024-with-improved-profitability"> the third quarter</a>.
Magic: The Gathering, launched in 1993 by Wizards of the Coast, was the world's first trading card game and became a staple in the sector over the years. Hasbro acquired Wizards of the Coast in 1999 and in recent years has seen increased growth from the sector thanks to digital gaming.
Hasbro is teaming up with Legendary Entertainment, a leading entertainment company that counts Apollo Global Management (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APO#NYSE">APO</a>) as its co-owner with Legendary.
Legendary Entertainment and Hasbro plan to launch a movie first and then expand into television, following a similar path of the "Dune" franchise, which Legendary Entertainment also worked on, as <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/magic-the-gathering-film-tv-universe-1236129132/">reported </a>by The Hollywood Reporter. 
"We pride ourselves on being thoughtful caretakers of singular, beloved IP, and no property better fits that description than Magic: The Gathering," Legendary's Chairwoman of worldwide production Mary Parent said.
Legendary has worked on turning brands into franchises before with Dune, Godzilla Vs. Kong and the upcoming "Minecraft" movie.
Hasbro has a Magic: The Gathering TV show in the works for Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>). A planned movie was in the works for years but never was created.
"This is an exciting and complementary partnership, uniting one of the world' most iconic brands with a powerful and proven steward," Hasbro Entertainment head of film Zev Foreman said.

Why It's Important: Magic: The Gathering has been played by 50 million people around the world and has a strong built-in fan base that could translate to a strong reception for the movies and TV shows.
Not all game adaptations work out successfully as several Dungeons &amp; Dragons movies did not perform strongly at the box office. Wizards of the Coast also owns Dungeons &amp; Dragons.
Hasbro has played a key role in adapting its brands into movies and TV shows, including the popular Transformers franchise.
The partnership with Legendary could be the key here as the company has successfully turned Dune into a strong movie and TV franchise.
Hasbro's Wizards of the Coast and Digital Gaming segment continues to be a strong performer for the company and with the latest entertainment news could provide more upside for shareholders.
In 2022, an activist shareholder pushed for Hasbro to spinoff Wizards of the Coast, suggesting there could be significant upside for Hasbro's share price by unlocking the key growth segment.
HAS Price Action: Hasbro stock trades at $58.92 versus a 52-week trading range of $46.10 to $73.46.
