Decoding Synopsys's Options Activity: What's the Big Picture?

<p><strong>Quest Diagnostics</strong>&#39; (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/dgx#NYSE">DGX</a>) subsidiary, Haystack Oncology, and <strong>Lisata Therapeutics, Inc.</strong> (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lsta#NASDAQ">LSTA</a>) recently announced a research collaboration for using the Haystack MRD (minimal residual disease) technology. Under the partnership, Lisata will deploy the highly sensitive technology to detect the circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in a clinical study evaluating certepetide plus chemotherapy as an investigational treatment for metastatic pancreatic cancer.</p>
<p>DGX completed the validation of the Haystack MRD test in March 2024. The Haystack MRD Early Experience Program has been oversubscribed, with nearly 20 leading cancer institutions as participants, paving the way for a nationwide launch of the clinical test later this year.</p>
<h3>More on Lisata Therapeutics</h3>
<p>As a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company, Lisata focuses on the discovery, development, and commercialization of innovative therapies for the treatment of advanced solid tumors and other major diseases. The company&#39;s lead product candidate, certepetide, is an investigational drug designed to activate a novel uptake pathway that allows co-administered or tethered anti-cancer drugs to target and penetrate solid tumors more effectively.</p>
<p>Building on its CendR Platform Technology, Lisata has forged noteworthy commercial and R&amp;D partnerships. The company expects to announce several clinical studies and business achievements over the next two years and projects that its available capital will fund operations into early 2026.</p>
<h3>News in Detail</h3>
<p>The FORTIFIDE study investigates the safety, tolerability and efficacy of certepetide when given as a four-hour continuous infusion in combination with standard-of-care treatment in subjects with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (mPDAC) who have progressed on FOLFIRINOX, a treatment for pancreatic cancer. According to the estimates of the American Cancer Society, more than 66,000 individuals nationwide will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2024, with mPDAC accounting for more than 90% of these cases. Known for its highly aggressive form, the disease mainly advances to this stage due to a lack of early diagnosis or limited patient response to treatments.</p>
<p><img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/2a/72285.jpg?v=65284551" /></p>
<p>Image Source: Zacks Investment Research</p>
<p>The research will use Haystack&#39;s MRD technology to measure serum ctDNA levels at multiple time points in patients throughout the study as an exploratory endpoint for analyzing the early therapeutic effect of certepetide. According to a Haystack Oncology representative, the collaboration underscores the value of the Haystack MRD technology in helping drive forward the development of novel treatments for solid tumor cancers.</p>
<p>Designed to detect ctDNA with exceptional sensitivity, Haystack&#39;s technology aims to provide crucial insights into ctDNA kinetics via serial measurements as an important and early indication of therapeutic response.</p>
<p><strong>Industry Prospects</strong></p>
<p>Per a Markets And Markets research report, the global MRD testing market was valued at $1.2 billion in 2022 and is expected to witness a CAGR of 14% by 2027. The market continues to be driven by the rising incidence and prevalence of cancer and hematological malignancies.</p>
<h3>Notable Partnerships Involving MRD Technology</h3>
<p>Earlier, in January 2024, Haystack Oncology announced a research collaboration with TriSalus Life Sciences to evaluate the therapeutic response and provide molecular insights in connection with the clinical development of TriSalus&#39; SD-101, an investigational class C toll-like receptor-9 (TLR9) agonist.</p>
<p>Additionally, Quest Diagnostics partnered with Ultima Genomics, involving the latter&#39;s next-generation sequencing&nbsp;technology in oncology and other clinical areas. DGX aims to deploy the Ultima technology for the possible development of lab-developed tests involving its Haystack solid-tumor MRD technology for future clinical and biopharmaceutical MRD applications, supplementing its current whole exome sequencing approach, as well as for certain future whole genome testing applications, such as rare disease detection in pediatric patients.</p>
<h3>Price Performance</h3>
<p>In the past year, shares of DGX have declined 2.8% against the industry&#39;s rise of 11%.</p>
<h3>Zacks Rank and Other Key Picks</h3>

<p>The recent announcement that&nbsp;<strong>President Joe Biden</strong> dropping out of the 2024 election campaign has stirred significant reactions across various sectors, including cannabis. <strong>Pablo Zuanic</strong>, senior analyst at <strong>Zuanic &amp; Associates</strong>, outlines the implications for the cannabis industry in his recent report.</p>
<h3>Market Reaction And Political Context</h3>
<p>Zuanic notes that the news of Biden stepping down has been perceived <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39895214/cannabis-stocks-react-to-biden-announcement-mondays-closing-market-moves">positively for&nbsp;cannabis stocks</a>. With <strong>Vice President Kamala Harris</strong> now more likely to face Donald Trump in the election, the market has responded optimistically.</p>
<p>Notable movements include <strong>Canopy Growth Corporation</strong> (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cgc#NASDAQ">CGC</a>) increasing by 17%, several large producers (LPs) rising by 9%, and the <strong>AdvisorShares Pure US Cannabis ETF</strong> (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/arca#NYSE">ARCA</a>) gaining 5.7%.</p>
<p>According to Zuanic, Harris has a better chance than Biden of defeating Trump in November, which could drive higher turnout for Democrats and reduce the likelihood of a Republican sweep. &quot;A Harris vs. Trump election will likely bring cannabis more to the forefront of the overall<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39344068/not-dc-but-the-states-tim-seymour-discusses-how-red-states-could-catalyze-cannabis-"> political debate</a>,&quot; Zuanic says.</p>
<p>He cautions that this heightened focus could make cannabis a more <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39781066/libertarians-back-florida-cannabis-legalization-5m-from-hemp-execs-to-gop-green-waves-in-red-sta">partisan issue</a>, increasing risks if Trump were to win.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Those who only wish for Trump to say &#39;leave it to the states&#39;&nbsp;forget that would only mean status quo but no rescheduling,&rdquo; Zuanic notes.</p>
<h3>Rescheduling And Regulatory Implications</h3>
<p>Zuanic emphasizes the narrowing path to cannabis rescheduling despite these developments.</p>
<p>He outlines several potential scenarios, from the <strong>Department of Justice</strong> (DOJ) deciding hearings are unnecessary and publishing the final rule soon, to prolonged delays due to administrative law judge (ALJ) reports and DEA involvement. &quot;Yes, a final rule published before 12/21/24 is possible, but the roadblocks are mounting.&quot;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Zuanic suggests that the Biden administration will prioritize completing the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39561566/will-bidens-shaky-debate-performance-affect-cannabis-reform-how-a-trump-return-could-reshape-mar">rescheduling process before Inauguration Day</a>. However, he raises concerns about the DEA potentially delaying the process. &quot;We believe the DOJ and White House will have some decisions to make, with the DEA&#39;s response to public comments being a significant factor.&quot;&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Congressional Review Act could reverse the ruling if Trump secures a majority in both chambers. If not, Zuanic says he would need to start a new rescheduling process &ldquo;from 3 to 1,&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;which could take at least two years.</p>
<h3>Future Scenarios And Market Sentiment</h3>
<p>In the event of a Trump victory, Zuanic outlines possible actions, such as reversing rescheduling through the Congressional Review Act or initiating a new process to revert cannabis scheduling. &quot;If the final rule has not been implemented before 1/20/25, we are doubtful his administration would continue the process,&quot; Zuanic adds.</p>
<p>Zuanic concludes that for cannabis stocks, a Harris victory is crucial. &quot;In our view, Trump voters owning cannabis stocks are in denial. Harris would at least finish rescheduling and likely push forward other reform initiatives around cannabis,&quot; he said.</p>

<p class="articleSource"><strong>Source: <a href="https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2024/07/19/critical-minerals-co-starts-fieldwork-at-montana-flagship-project.html?utm_medium=feed">Streetwise Reports 07/22/2024</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>Stillwater Critical Minerals Corp.</strong> (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pgezf#OTC">PGEZF</a>) announced it has started 2024 field activities at its flagship Stillwater West project in Montana, including a property-wide airborne electromagnetic geophysical survey.</p>
<p>Expert Geophysics Ltd. will conduct a combined time-domain electromagnetic (EM) survey using their TargetEM26 system along with a magneto-telluric survey using their MobileMTm system at the nickel-platinum group element-copper-cobalt plus gold (Ni-PGE-Cu-Co plus Au) project.</p>
<p>The survey will utilize the newest technological advancements in airborne EM, building on the success of a first-generation DIGHEM airborne EM survey flown over the project in 2000. It will cover about 1,069 line-kilometers and provide higher-resolution and improved depth of investigation from the DIGHEM airborne EM survey, as well as VLF coverage.</p>
<p>It has been designed in collaboration with <strong>Glencore International Plc </strong>(OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/glncy#OTC">GLNCY</a>), which holds a 15.4% position in Stillwater and has provided ongoing technical support to the company, to fine-tune priority conductive drill targets across the 12-kilometer main resource area, as well as to assist with prioritization and ranking of additional untested conductive targets across the broader 61-square-kilometer property.</p>
<p>This large-scale geophysical survey is part of a larger program that is expected to include an updated mineral resource estimate that will support the commencement of various studies relating to potential production scenarios&quot; Stillwater President and Chief Executive Officer Michael Rowley said. &quot;These objectives will be important milestones in preparation for continued resource expansion drilling across the 12-kilometer deposit area, as well as in developing target areas.&quot;</p>
<h2><strong>Airborne Surveys to Give Important Info</strong></h2>
<p>Rowley said Stillwater is also pursuing a number of other studies and initiatives with strategic partners such as Cornell University and various U.S. government agencies.</p>
<p>The technical committee that includes Glencore is focusing on the expansion potential of the lower Stillwater Igneous Complex, the company said. The addition of Glencore&#39;s vice president of business development to Stillwater&#39;s board of directors in June confirmed this focus on expansion potential.</p>
<p>Detailed geological and structural interpretive work during the past two years added significantly to Stillwater&#39;s understanding of the large Platreef-style mineralized system discovered within the footwall contact zone of the project complex, Vice President Exploration Dr. Danie Grobler said.</p>
<p>&quot;Our geological models now display strong geological control and continuity on mineralized zones&quot; Grobler said. &quot;The planned airborne surveys will provide important high-resolution data sets to refine targeting of high-grade nickel-copper-PGE sulphide-hosted mineralization within the multikilometer-scale geophysical anomalies that we see across the 32-kilometer-long mineralized system.&quot;</p>
<h2><strong>Parallels With Massive South Africa Complex</strong></h2>
<p>In June, the company reported the final drill results from resource expansion drilling at the project, including six holes totaling 2,310 meters that were focused on expanding resources at the west end of the current deposits, which span nine kilometers.</p>
<p>All six holes targeted and successfully intercepted magmatic nickel and copper sulfide mineralization with significant PGE mineralization, furthering known parallels with the Bushveld Igneous Complex, the largest layered igneous intrusion in the Earth&#39;s crust in South Africa.</p>
<p>&quot;Our drill campaigns have successfully leveraged a substantial historic database to arrive at a total of approximately 40,000 meters of drilling in 236 holes to date&quot; said Rowley at the time. &quot;That wealth of data, combined with Glencore&#39;s backing and in-house expertise from similar geology in South Africa&#39;s Bushveld Igneous Complex, has positioned us exceptionally well with the largest nickel resource in an active American mining district at a time when the U.S. is looking to onshore supply chains of nine of the commodities we have inventoried.&quot;</p>
<p>Stillwater noted that drilling also successfully intercepted N-series mineralization in structures that are not known in the Bushveld Igneous Complex but have now been modeled in a series of eight north-south trending structures at Stillwater West.</p>
<p>The company said those results demonstrated significant potential to expand the 2023 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for the project. All deposits and mineralization remain open for expansion in planned follow-up drilling.</p>
<h2><strong>The Catalyst: Powering the Green Energy Transition</strong></h2>
<p>According to a report by CarbonCredits.com, a rapid expansion in Indonesia&#39;s nickel industry has led to oversupply, causing price declines from highs in 2022 and 2023. However, it noted the long-term outlook for the metal remained positive and that &quot;market analysts also share the same sentiment.&quot;</p>
<p>The nickel market is expected to grow by a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 4.8% from 2024 to 2029, according to Mordor Intelligence. The market was valued at more than 2.1 million tons in 2021, analysts said.</p>
<p>The driving force over the medium term will be the demand for nickel in stainless steel alloys, Mordor noted, as well as for automobile batteries and energy storage systems in wind turbines or solar panels needed for the energy transition.</p>
<p>An article from Stockhead on May 13 noted how Sprott&#39;s Steve Schoffstall spoke highly about nickel potential.</p>
<p>&quot;In our view, nickel miners are poised to offer investment attractive opportunities to investors&quot; Schoffstall said. &quot;Although nickel prices declined in 2023 on the back of softer Chinese EV sales and a flood of supply from Indonesia, the metal has been rebounding thus far in 2024 and benefiting the prospects of mining companies.&quot;</p>
<p>Schoffstall added, &quot;The rise in nickel prices seems to be a combination of investor sentiment, potential supply constraints, and the underlying long-term demand for nickel in the clean energy transition.&quot;</p>
<p>Geopolitics are also important to consider, especially given Chinese dominance in nickel markets via the mines and processing operations in Indonesia, Rowley told Streetwise Reports, adding that BHP&#39;s recent decision to suspend production at their giant Nickel West operations in Western Australia is evidence that China&#39;s strategy to squeeze out western miners is working.</p>
<p>&quot;For this reason, Stillwater highlights the importance of having the largest nickel resource in an active U.S. mining district&quot; he said.</p>
<p>According to Straits Research, Platinum Group Metals (PGM) are utilized in various products, including oxygen sensors, fuel cells, auto catalysts, jewelry, electronic parts, and medical equipment, among other things.</p>
<p>The global market for PGE was US$15.7 million in 2021 and is projected to reach US$21.8 million by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.44% from 2022 to 2030, researchers said.</p>
<p>Copper and cobalt are also needed for the energy transition for use in wires and batteries and other important products.</p>
<h2><strong>Ownership and Share Structure</strong></h2>
<p>Management and insiders own approximately 20% of Stillwater, according to the company.</p>
<p>Executive Chairman and Director Gregory Shawn Johnson owns 2.86%, President and CEO Michael Victor Rowley owns 2.56%, Independent Director Gregor John Hamilton owns 1.65%, Independent Director Gordon L. Toll owns 0.44%, and Vice President of Exploration Daniel F. Grobler owns 0.23%, according to Reuters.</p>
<p>Institutions own approximately 25% of the company, high net-worth investors own about 37%, and Glencore Canada Corp. owns 15.4%. About 18% of the company&#39;s shares are in retail, Stillwater said.</p>
<p>There are about 227 million shares outstanding with 174.5 million free float traded shares, while the company has a market cap of CA$36.33 million and trades in a 52-week range of CA$0.13 and CA$0.22.</p>
