(CNBC) | | Texas, among the states seeing an increase in new coronavirus cases, reported record Covid-19 hospitalizations on Monday, weeks after Republican Gov. Greg Abbott took the lead among state leaders in easing social distancing measures to help bring jobs back.

Tiffany's results were impacted by pandemic-related worldwide store closures. | | | Macy's (M) reported a preliminary first-quarter loss of $2.03 per share, smaller than the consensus estimate of a $2.82 per share loss.

Macy's will finalize its first-quarter numbers on July 1, after it fully assesses impairment charges related to the pandemic.

The consumer segment is largely responsible for the boost, with consumers increasing lawn and garden activities during the pandemic. | | | | Occidental Petroleum (OXY) is reviewing options for its Middle East assets as it considers ways to reduce its debt load, according to a Bloomberg report.
