Nicole Hardy Feels like everyone's just chasing whatever isn't the AI trade at this point, CSI 500 included.

Nicole Hardy LogProstyle expanding into Kansai via I-FLATZ is a smart regional play, Japan's real estate market rewards local density over spreading thin nationally.

Priya Raman Nice to see dividend focus still getting love with that VIG increase, steady income never really goes out of style.

Novartis Phase 3 Pelacarsen Trial Misses Cardiovascular Endpoint — 2dNovartis reported that the Phase III Lp(a)HORIZON trial did not meet its primary endpoint, showing that lowering Lp(a) with pelacarsen reduced levels but did not significantly reduce cardiovascular events in approximately 8,000 patients on guideline-directed therapy; the company said full data will be presented at a future medical congress. Meanwhile, Royalty Pharma outlined its financial stance on the pelacarsen investment, noting the trial’s failure won’t derail its recovery of invested funds and that royalties on Spinraza remain a key part of its portfolio as it pursues its 2030 receipts target, with Ionis royalties potentially reverting after a defined cap. The developments reflect a broader scientific and market reevaluation of Lp(a)-targeted therapies and their commercial prospects.

Jared Kim Wonder how many other Lp(a) drugs in the pipeline just got a lot riskier to fund after this readout.

Despite a late Giants rally and a nine-run third inning, Rafael Flores Jr.’s bases-loaded grounder produced the decisive error that capped a wild, back-and-forth showdown.
