Travel stocks sink after Trivago profit warning

Shares of Priceline (PCLN), TripAdvisor (TRIP) and Expedia (EXPE) are under pressure after German hotel search platform, Trivago (TRVG), issued a profit warning. The company cut its guidance and now expects annual revenue growth to be around 40%, down from its previous forecast of 50% growth. Trivago executives blamed its lowered forecast on revenue per qualified referral and said its impact has been “more significant than previously expected.” Trivago shares are down 15% as of 12:30 p.m. ET Wednesday.

T-Mobile adds Netflix for free

T-Mobile (TMUS) is adding Netflix to its T-Mobile One family plans at no extra charge. The free subscription applies to T-Mobile One plans with at least two voice lines. T-Mobile president and CEO John Legere said, “While the carriers spend billions on their franken-strategies to cobble together carrier–cable–content mashups, the Un-carrier just leapfrogged them all by partnering with the best and giving it to customers at no extra charge. Because that’s what we always do. Give more to you without asking more from you.”
