Deloitte was too close to Autonomy, regulators claim
Deloitte auditors had a “oneness” with Autonomy executives including founder Mike Lynch that led to a misleading picture of the technology group’s financial position, regulators have claimed. The Financial Reporting Council said Richard Knights, the former Deloitte partner in charge of auditing Autonomy, “consciously lost his objectivity” during a five-year relationship with the FTSE 100 company, and was “reckless” and “seriously misleading” in reports to regulators. The FRC’s comments came on the first day of an eight-week tribunal on Thursday in which it is bringing disciplinary proceedings against Deloitte, Mr Knights and ex-partner Nigel Mercer over alleged misconduct in their audits of Autonomy between 2009 and 2011.

HP stock falls after Goldman Sachs turns bearish
Goldman Sachs analyst Rod Hall downgraded shares of HP Inc. to sell from neutral on Thursday, writing that he expects a "substantially tougher environment" ahead next year as the company sees PC tailwinds reverse and tries to change up its printing strategy to combat a rise in counterfeit supplies. Shares are off 2.4% in premarket trading Thursday. "While consumer PCs have been weak, this has been masked by strength in commercial PCs driven in part by the Windows 10 migration cycle which we expect to fade in 2020, particularly in [the second half]," Hall wrote. "Further, we see significant risk to printing profits as the supplies business continues to deteriorate." He lowered his price target to $14 from $18. The stock has lost 20% over the past three months, while the S&P 500 has risen 2.5%. Hall also turned bearish on NetApp Inc.'s stock Thursday and downgraded Cisco shares to neutral from buy.

Two Gadget Makers Look to Move Manufacturing Out of China, Citing Trade War
(Bloomberg) -- Terms of Trade is a daily newsletter that untangles a world embroiled in trade wars. Sign up here. Two American consumer electronics companies said this week that they’re looking to shift manufacturing away from China and into other countries, citing pressures from import tariffs on their products amid the trade war.Fitbit Inc. said on Wednesday that it would stop Chinese manufacturing of its health trackers and smartwatches by January. Tile Inc. said it’s also considering plans to make its Bluetooth-enabled location trackers in other countries, after the company was hit with tariffs last month.“The biggest challenge for a company like Tile is our ability to plan for shifting changes in U.S. policy toward China,” said Chief Executive Officer CJ Prober. “With recent impacts, we are looking at other regions.”Tile on Tuesday added a new sticker to its lineup of tracking devices that help customers keep tabs on keys, wallets and the like, and raised $45 million in funding in its last round of funding earlier this year. The gadget maker does the majority of its manufacturing in China, but as the U.S.-China trade war has escalated, it’s now considering Mexico, Malaysia, Vietnam and “possibly the U.S.” as future manufacturing hubs, Prober said.“We are re-evaluating our entire supply chain and how we do what and where,” he said, adding that in recent weeks, Tile had dedicated an “entire team” to the task of traveling to different cities and evaluating manufacturing facilities. In a sign of concern from investors about the potential costs of relocating these operations, shares of San Francisco-based Fitbit fell as much as 2% Wednesday after announcing the move from China.Several U.S. companies, long accustomed to using China as a manufacturing base, are now looking to reduce their exposure to the country. Last year, GoPro Inc. announced it would move much of its U.S.-bound camera production out of China to avoid potential tariffs, and has largely accomplished that goal, according to a spokesman. In August, HP Inc.’s laptop maker Inventec Corp. said it will shift production of notebooks for the U.S. market away from China. Apple Inc. has been doing battle with the White House over requests to get the iPhone and other products off the list of Chinese-made goods slated to be hit with tariffs on Dec. 15.The latest $300 billion round of duties will impact essentially all remaining Chinese imports—with some exceptions, though details around which imports will be exempted are still unclear. Trade policy between the world’s two largest economies is still in flux. Chinese Vice Premier Liu He is set to visit the U.S. this week for further trade talks.“We are supportive of the overall policy” of the U.S. in its negotiations with China, Tile’s Prober said. But “what’s been challenging is the implementation of that policy.” The company “only got a few weeks’ notice” that its products would be subject to new tariffs before they went into effect in September, he said.
