Nutanix Analysts Boost Their Forecasts After Upbeat Earnings

Global markets faced turbulence by midday Wednesday as an unwinding of yen-dollar carry trades drove sharp losses in U.S. equities, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 falling <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">1.2% in intraday trading.</a>
Rising expectations that the Bank of Japan may raise interest rates in December pushed the dollar-yen pair down by 1.5%, marking its steepest drop since late September. This triggered a wave of &#8220;risk-off&#8221; sentiment, pressuring major indices.
The S&amp;P 500 dipped 0.5% by midday, on track to snap a seven-day winning streak, while small caps in the Russell 2000 remained relatively steady. Treasury yields fell significantly as fresh economic data failed to stoke concerns about an imminent change in the Federal Reserve's interest rate path.
The U.S. economy expanded at an annualized 2.8% in the third quarter, according to a second estimate that matched earlier print. October's Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, the Fed&#8217;s preferred inflation gauge, also came in line with forecasts, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/42220106/dollar-treasury-yields-stocks-fall-in-tandem-after-october-inflation-uptick">showing a modest uptick.</a>
Traders continue to bet on easier monetary policy, with Fed funds futures pricing in a 70% probability of a 25-basis-point rate cut at the Dec. 18 meeting.
In commodities market, gold inched up by 0.2%, while oil prices fell by 1% to $68 a barrel, heading for a three-day decline. Natural gas plummeted 7%, amid less cold weather forecasts reducing the outlook for heating demand.
Meanwhile, cryptocurrencies reversed their recent losing streak. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rallied nearly 5% to above $96,000, while Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) surged more than 7%, hitting price levels last seen in late June 2024.

Stocks Fall, Yen Eyes Best Day In 2 Months, Bitcoin Rebounds Above $96,000: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

Las Vegas Sands's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LVS#NYSE">LVS</a>) short percent of float has risen 20.35% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 21.04 million shares sold short, which is 5.56% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.18 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Las Vegas Sands Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1732733122_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Las Vegas Sands has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Las Vegas Sands's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Las Vegas Sands's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.91%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

Grifols Held An Extraordinary Meeting This Afternoon, During Which The Content Of A Letter Sent By Brookfield Capital Partners To The Transaction Committee Of The Board Of Directors Was Reviewed, Saying Under The Current Circumstances, Brookfield Is Not In A Position To Proceed With A Potential Offer For Grifols; Board Agrees That It Is Not Feasible For The Transaction To Move Forward

On November 19 this year, C3.ai Inc. ($AI) stock got a massive boost as the company formed a strategic alliance with Microsoft ($MSFT) to increase the adoption of AI. The response was fast and furious, with AI gaining +26% on the day and +50% over the next 5 sessions hitting a peak just shy of $40. However, the bullish hue has soured a bit pulling back the last 3 sessions and dropping 10%.
We're going to examine whether the bull run is over and how to trade it using our PFP system (positioning, flows and price action).
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Options Positioning in $AI</h2>
Looking at the options positioning in the ticker, our proprietary apps tell me we have about 25% of the notional gamma coming off the board this Friday and another large chunk for the December options expiration (op-ex). With three out of every five options being a call, we have to assume there are more calls coming off the board than puts.
This leaves the stock weakening in the short term, and so this current pullback seems warranted.
However, the topping around $40 seems natural from a positioning standpoint as this is the TCS (top call strike), so I suspect profit taking and the culling of long calls is the main culprit behind this pullback.
The TGS (top gamma strike) is at $35, so I wouldn't be surprised to see the stock start to stick around the $35 strike to end the week. As long as we hold $30, we retain a bullish hue on the stock and will look to buy dips. Thus, positioning wise, I'm still bullish and looking to buy, despite the 10% pullback targeting $40/41 for the December op-ex.
Only on a daily close under $30 would I shift to bearish.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Price Action in $AI</h2>
In alignment with the positioning, if we look at the chart below, we can see there are three impulsive moves in response to the partnership news with Microsoft showing a high imbalance with the bulls.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="502" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27133929/AI_2024-11-27_10-36-05-1024x502.png" alt="" class="wp-image-668034" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27133929/AI_2024-11-27_10-36-05-1024x502.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27133929/AI_2024-11-27_10-36-05-300x147.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27133929/AI_2024-11-27_10-36-05-768x377.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27133929/AI_2024-11-27_10-36-05-1536x753.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27133929/AI_2024-11-27_10-36-05.png 1835w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
1-hour $AI chart
The pullback over the last three sessions has been ‘corrective' which suggests a low imbalance of put buying and/or call selling. This means the overall price action is communicating the flows are still more likely to be bullish if they come in with size/verve.
Hence, the overall price action is still leaning bullish.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Flows in $AI</h2>
While the flows on the day are a mild amount of call selling and an even milder amount of put buying, these notional deltas are nowhere near pushing ‘impulsive/aggressive', thus overall the flows (while mildly bearish in the last 3 sessions), we suspect this is part holidays and part profit taking with no aggression to the downside.
Until I see real verve in the selling/put buying, the overall flows are leaning bullish over a medium term, thus we're retaining a bullish contour on the stock.

Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Gets FDA Approval Of Acetadote, An Antidote To Prevent Or Lessen Hepatic Injury From Acetaminophen Overdose, For Pediatric Patients

HP Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPQ#NYSE">HPQ</a>) stock traded lower Wednesday after the company reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/42203410/hp-stock-drops-after-q4-results-weak-forward-guidance-details" rel="noreferrer noopener">fiscal fourth-quarter</a> financial results and issued fiscal first-quarter adjusted EPS guidance below estimates.
On Tuesday, HP reported revenue of $14.05 billion (versus $13.82 billion a year ago), which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $13.99 billion. The EPS of $0.93 was in line with the analyst consensus estimate.

HP expects first-quarter adjusted EPS of $0.70 &#8211; $0.76, versus the $0.85 estimate, and fiscal 2025 adjusted EPS of $3.45 &#8211; $3.75, versus the $3.60 estimate.
Multiple Wall Street analysts rerated the stock after the quarterly print.
JP Morgan analyst Samik Chatterjee maintained an Overweight rating on HP with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/HPQ/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $40, down from $41</a>.
Goldman Sachs analyst Michael Ng reiterated a Neutral rating on HP with a price target of $38, up from $35.
JP Morgan: Analyst Chatterjee highlights HP&#8217;s near-term challenges and opportunities in the personal systems (PS) and print segments. Despite known headwinds in the PC market, HP faces additional pressure from competitive pricing as it tries to offset higher memory costs. The company remains optimistic about a mid-single-digit recovery in PC units and increased adoption of AI PCs by enterprise customers in fiscal year 2025, supported by pent-up demand and Windows 11 refresh cycles.
The print segment performed well, generating $4.5 billion, surpassing expectations, while PS revenue came in at $9.6 billion, slightly below consensus. Operating margins were 8.5%, impacted by higher commodity costs and strategic investments.
For fiscal 2025, HP projects full-year revenue growth driven by mid-single-digit increases in PC units and seasonal recovery. However, first-quarter EPS guidance of $0.70 &#8211; $0.76 falls below consensus, reflecting margin pressures and the need for a significant recovery in PC volumes to meet annual targets.
HP&#8217;s print margins improved to 19.6% in the fourth quarter, exceeding internal and external forecasts. Due to cost discipline, the company anticipates print operating margins will remain at the higher end of the 16% &#8211; 19% range in fiscal 2025. Meanwhile, PS margins are expected to climb to the upper half of 5% &#8211; 7%, aided by improved pricing strategies and volume leverage.
Enterprise PC replacement cycles, supported by Windows 10&#8217;s end-of-life in 2025, and increased AI PC adoption are long-term growth drivers. HP&#8217;s supply chain resilience positions it to navigate potential tariff escalations better than peers, ensuring smoother operations.
Chatterjee maintains an Overweight rating on HP, emphasizing medium-term positioning in PS as a key growth driver. Stabilizing gross margins and operating efficiencies are expected to mitigate some margin pressures. The analyst slightly lowered the December 2025 price target, valuing fiscal 2026 EPS at 10x P/E, aligning with historical averages.
HP&#8217;s ability to recover in the PC market and capitalize on enterprise adoption of AI PCs remains critical to achieving long-term targets. While near-term pressures exist, structural improvements in the print and PS segments are expected to provide resilience.
Chatterjee projects first-quarter revenue of $13.47 billion and adjusted EPS of $0.75.
Goldman Sachs: HP delivered fiscal fourth-quarter 2024 EPS of $0.93, aligning with Goldman Sachs (GS) and consensus estimates. Print segment performance offset a modest miss in the Personal Systems (PS) division. Print revenue grew for the first time since fiscal fourth-quarter 2021, increasing 1% to $4.5 billion, surpassing GS and consensus projections of $4.3 billion and $4.2 billion, respectively. This growth stemmed from solid supplies and industrial graphics sales, although pricing pressures persisted.
Print margins reached 19.6%, exceeding guidance and analyst expectations ((GS: 18.5%, XHKG:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/18#XHKG">18</a>), reflecting a favorable business mix and cost efficiencies. HP expects Print revenue to decline to low single digits (LSD%) in fiscal 2025, aligning with broader market trends, while supply revenue is projected to drop LSD to mid-single digits (MSD%).
In contrast, PS revenue fell to $9.6 billion, missing GS and consensus estimates of $9.8 billion. While consumer PS revenue declined 4%, commercial PS revenue grew 5%, with unit volumes increasing 4%. HP anticipates mid-single-digit (MSD%) growth in the PS segment for fiscal 2025, driven by factors such as Windows 10 end-of-life, a refreshed PC installed base, and the rise of AI PCs, which are expected to comprise 20% of shipments.
HP anticipates more robust performance in the second half of fiscal 2025 as PC demand accelerates, supported by the commercial segment, premium consumer systems, and AI PCs. Commodity cost pressures impacting PS margins are expected to subside in the latter half of the fiscal year, aided by cost reductions and pricing strategies.
Ng remains neutral on HP, raising the 12-month price target based on a 10x P/E multiple. The revised valuation reflects HP&#8217;s market share gains in commercial and premium PC segments. Ng projects first-quarter adjusted EPS of $0.75.
Price Action: HPQ stock is down 12.5% at $34.22 at last check Wednesday.

HP Faces Margin Pressure But Analysts See AI PCs Driving Growth In 2025

Interactive Strength's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRNR#NYSE">TRNR</a>) short percent of float has fallen 18.73% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 76 thousand shares sold short, which is 12.24% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.0 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

(KTOS) - Analyzing Kratos Defense & Security's Short Interest

Last week, Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) issued its third quarter results, topping both&nbsp;sales and earnings&nbsp;estimates as well as posting a better-than-expected current quarter guidance as its end-customers, including Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Open AI and&nbsp;Oracle Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/orcl#NYSE">ORCL</a>), have started receiving its next-generation AI chip, the mighty Blackwell, that is now in full production.
<h3>Third Quarter Highlights</h3>
For the quarter ended on October 27th, Nvidia reported its revenue surged 94% YoY&nbsp;&nbsp;to&nbsp;$35.08 billion, surpassing LSEG&rsquo;s estimate of&nbsp;$33.16 billion. But, this is a quarterly slowdown as sales rose 122%, 262%, and 265% during previous quarters respectively. The date center business that is at the heart of the AI hype brought in $30.8 billion with sales rising 112%&nbsp;YoY and surpassing StreetAccount&rsquo;s estimate of $28.82 billion. But not all of that revenue is made of chips that power AI development as&nbsp;$3.1 billion&nbsp;of that sales figure was brought in by networking parts. Gaming business brought $3.28 billion&nbsp;to the revenue table. While automotive and professional visualization businesses&nbsp;remain much smaller, automotive sales grew 72% YoY to $449 million while the later reported 17% YoY growth, bringing in sales of $486 million.
Net income more than doubled from last year&rsquo;s comparable quarter as it amounted to $19.3 billion. While net income jumped from last year&rsquo;s&nbsp;37 cents&nbsp;per share to 70 cents per share,&nbsp;adjusted earnings per share amounted to 81 cents, also topping LSEG&rsquo;s estimate of 75 cents. Due to selling more chips, gross margin expanded to 73.5%.
<h3>Fourth Quarter Outlook</h3>
Nvidia guided for current quarter sales of about $37.5 billion plus or minus 2%. Outlook implies YoY growth of about 70%, which is a&nbsp;slowdown from last year&rsquo;s comparable quarter when growth amounted to 265%.
Nvidia&rsquo;s AI dominance remains intact.
It&rsquo;s a well-known fact that Nvidia is a&nbsp;primary beneficiary of the ongoing AI hype, with shares nearly tripling year to date. Blackwell shipments are in for a ramp up next year, but already in the current quarter, Nvidia is in &ldquo;several billion dollars&rdquo; of Blackwell revenue. Demand for Blackwell is expected to exceed supply for several quarters in the next fiscal year. Now for how long can Nvidia&rsquo;s AI dominance continue to soar is a different question only time is able to answer.&nbsp;

Nvidia's Latest Record Quarter Show Its AI Dominance Remains Intact

President-elect Donald Trump's transition team is considering Paul Atkins, a seasoned financial regulator and advocate for digital assets, to lead the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42131449/with-gary-gensler-preparing-to-quit-in-2025-secs-crypto-cases-likely-to-quietly-go-away-amid-trumps-pro-bitcoin-stance-says-pantera-capitals-katrina-paglia">U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission</a>.
What Happened: Atkins, a Republican SEC commissioner during the George W. Bush administration, is among the top contenders to replace outgoing SEC Chair Gary Gensler, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-27/trump-team-eyes-atkins-ex-sec-commissioner-to-succeed-gensler?utm_content=crypto&amp;utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_campaign=socialflow-organic&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;embedded-checkout=true">reported</a>.
Trump's decision on the appointment is expected in the coming days.
Atkins' background positions him as a strong candidate to reshape the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42131449/with-gary-gensler-preparing-to-quit-in-2025-secs-crypto-cases-likely-to-quietly-go-away-amid-trumps-pro-bitcoin-stance-says-pantera-capitals-katrina-paglia">SEC's approach to regulation</a>, particularly regarding cryptocurrency and financial technology.
Since leaving the SEC, he founded Patomak Global Partners, a consultancy advising major financial firms, and has testified before Congress on streamlining regulatory processes and reducing unnecessary burdens on the financial industry. 
An advocate for digital assets, Atkins has pushed for clear and balanced rules to foster innovation while maintaining market integrity.
Other candidates reportedly under consideration include current SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda, former CFTC Chair Heath Tarbert, and Robert Stebbins, a partner at Willkie Farr &amp; Gallagher LLP.

A spokesperson for Trump's transition team, Karoline Leavitt, praised the president-elect's swift decisions in assembling his administration, stating, "Remaining decisions will continue to be announced by him when they are made."
Atkins' potential appointment signals a departure from the regulatory approach under Gensler, who led the SEC with an aggressive stance on crypto enforcement following high-profile failures like the collapse of FTX. 
Gensler's tenure drew criticism from the industry for creating uncertainty by regulating through enforcement rather than providing clear guidelines. 
Trump, during his campaign, vowed to end what he described as the SEC's "anti-crypto crusade" and promised to appoint <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41883348/donald-trump-cant-fire-gary-gensler-but-pro-crypto-policies-means-industry-is-on-the-verge-of-a-golden-era">crypto-friendly regulators.</a>

SPY&nbsp;(ARCA: SPY) is currently trading near the 599.24 level, which serves as a key area for bullish interest. If buyers manage to defend this level, the next objective will be a climb toward 600.51. A sustained push above this could lead to testing 602.48 as a critical support level. Further momentum may pave the way for a move toward 604.45, with a high bullish target set at 607.55 if the rally gains significant strength.
On the downside, failure to maintain support at 599.24 may trigger selling pressure toward 598.04. Should sellers maintain control below this level, the next focus would be on 596.57. If bears continue to dominate, we could see a deeper pullback to the strong support level at 593.73. In an aggressive selloff, the low target for SPY would be 592.00.
<h3>Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1</h3>
The QQQ (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) is trading near the pivotal 508.22 level, and bulls will aim to hold this as a foundation for further gains. If successful, buyers could push prices toward 509.87, with further strength targeting 511.53. If the bullish momentum persists, 513.64 comes into play, with the high bull target for the day at 515.00.
However, if 508.22 fails to hold as support, the bears could drag the price down to 506.68. Breaking below this may lead to a test of 504.44, and if sellers remain in control, the next support at 502.65 could be tested. Persistent selling pressure might drive the price down to the low bear target of 501.07.
<h3>Apple Inc.</h3>
Apple&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is hovering around 234.20, where bulls aim to establish a base for upward movement. If this level is defended, a push toward 234.97 could follow. Strong buying momentum may propel the price to 235.74, with the ultimate bullish target for the day at 236.69 if the rally holds steady.
Conversely, a failure to hold 234.20 could invite bears to test support at 233.28. Sustained downside action may lead to a retest of 231.76, with continued selling likely driving the price to 230.25. If bearish pressure accelerates, the low target for AAPL could reach 229.03.
<h3>Microsoft Corp. </h3>
Microsoft&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) is trading near 426.00, where bulls aim to secure a foothold for higher prices. Holding this level could see a rally toward 427.36, with further gains bringing 428.48 into focus. If buying interest persists, the high bull target at 429.25 may be achievable.
If 426.00 fails to hold, bears may seek to challenge 425.16. A break below this level could lead to further selling pressure toward 423.81. Continued weakness might push the price down to 422.84, with the low bear target for MSFT at 421.62.
<h3>NVIDIA Corporation</h3>
NVIDIA&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) is trading near the key level of 135.64, where bulls are trying to establish control. If this level is defended, a move toward 136.98 could be the next target. Strong buying momentum may see the price test 137.94, with a high bull target of 139.42 in sight if the rally holds.
If 135.64 breaks, bears may push the price lower toward 134.56. Should selling intensify, the next focus will be on 133.31. Continued weakness could lead to a test of 132.19, with the low bear target for the day at 131.42.
<h3>Alphabet Inc Class A</h3>
Alphabet&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/googl#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) is trading around 169.34, a key level for bulls to hold. A successful defense could lead to a rally toward 171.14, with further buying momentum targeting 172.28. Strong market participation could solidify gains at this high bull target.
If 169.34 fails to act as support, bears may drive the price down to 167.04. A breakdown at this level could see the price test 165.41, with further downside momentum pushing the auction to the low bear target of 163.79.
<h3>Meta Platforms Inc</h3>
Meta&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/meta#NASDAQ">META</a>) is near the critical level of 573.25, which bulls will aim to hold as a launching point for higher prices. If successful, we could see a rally to 580.17, followed by a test of 585.73. Sustained buying interest might bring the high bull target at 591.29 into play.
On the other hand, a break below 573.25 could lead to selling pressure driving the price to 565.53. Persistent weakness may push the price lower to 559.29, with the low bear target for Meta at 553.05 if the selloff intensifies.
<h3>Tesla Inc. </h3>
Tesla&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is trading near 340.97, a critical level for the bulls. If buyers maintain control, a move toward 346.64 could follow, with 350.87 acting as the next major resistance. A strong rally may extend gains toward 356.80, with the high bull target set at 363.84.
Failure to hold 340.97 as support could result in a pullback toward 333.93. If selling pressure persists, the next target would be 327.59. A continued selloff may bring Tesla down to the low bear target of 322.52.

Market Clubhouse Morning Memo - November 27th, 2024 (Trade Strategy For SPY, QQQ, AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, GOOGL, META And TSLA)

On Tuesday, Axsome Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXSM#NASDAQ">AXSM</a>) said AXS-12 statistically significantly reduced the frequency of cataplexy attacks compared to placebo (p=0.017, primary endpoint) in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/g42185380/axsome-therapeutics-announces-axs-12-achieves-primary-endpoint-in-encore-long-term-phase-3-trial-i" rel="noreferrer noopener">Phase 3 ENCORE trial</a>.
AXS-12 was also well tolerated with long-term dosing, and its safety profile was consistent with that observed in previously completed trials.
The primary endpoint was achieved with patients randomized to switch to placebo experiencing a mean increase of 10.29 cataplexy attacks per week compared to a mean increase of 1.32 attacks per week for patients randomized to continue AXS-12 treatment at 3 weeks (p=0.017).
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/07/39891953/axsome-therapeutics-cns-portfolio-poised-for-major-growth-analyst-predicts-strong-f" rel="noreferrer noopener">Axsome Therapeutics&#8217; CNS Portfolio Poised for Major Growth &#8211; Analyst Predicts Strong Future</a>
AXS-12 resulted in statistically significant benefit in cognition compared to placebo.
A higher number of patients who switched to placebo experienced worsening on the NSAQ Ability to Concentrate item compared to those continuing on AXS-12 (52.6% versus 14.3%) at 3 weeks (p=0.011).
A statistically significant improvement in narcolepsy overall was observed compared to placebo.
More patients randomized to switch to placebo reported worsening of their narcolepsy compared to those continuing on AXS-12 (52.6% versus 16.7%) at 3 weeks (p=0.024).
During the long-term open-label treatment portion of the trial, patients experienced substantial and sustained improvement of cataplexy with AXS-12 treatment.
Patients experienced a 71% reduction from baseline in mean weekly cataplexy attacks at 1 month with AXS-12 treatment, which was sustained with long-term treatment, resulting in a 77% reduction at 6 months.
Long-term open-label treatment with AXS-12 resulted in substantial improvements in excessive daytime sleepiness. Mean scores were reduced by 5.6 points at 1 month, with this improvement maintained with long-term treatment, resulting in a mean reduction of 7.3 points at 6 months.
William Blair views the safety profile of AXS-12 as a key differentiator from Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JAZZ#NASDAQ">JAZZ</a>) Xyrem. The analyst reiterates the Outperform rating on Axsome.
&#8220;Ultimately, we believe AXS-12 is both an approvable and effective therapy, with the data released today building on both the efficacy and long-term safety of the product,&#8221; the analyst writes.
William Blair conservatively models $440 million in peak AXS-12 sales, relative to growing Wakix sales of $582 million in 2023, and says the asset is undervalued with investor focus on data for AXS-05 in Alzheimer's disease agitation expected before year-end.
Price Action: AXSM stock is up 2.5% at $99.46 at last check Wednesday.

Axsome Therapeutics' AXS-12 Data For Sleeping Disorder Boosts Confidence In Approval And Market Potential, Analyst Says

NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) founder and CEO Jensen Huang has an interesting way of learning from AI that involves tormenting chatbots with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/09/34737955/to-make-a-real-connection-asking-how-are-you-doesnt-work-heres-what-does">follow-up questions</a>.
What To Know: In an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuTZNgrLBJk">interview</a> over the weekend at the Hong Kong University Of Science &amp; Technology, Huang suggested that students adopt AI as a tutor and then push the technology to become a valuable teacher through intense training, per <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/questions-nvidias-ceo-asks-his-ai-to-learn-more-2024-11">Business Insider</a>.
&#8220;I torture my AI to teach me,&#8221; Huang said.
Huang was referring to the rigorous follow-up questions he asks an AI chatbot after he gives it a prompt. When AI provides an answer, the Nvidia CEO always asks it why. He then follows that question up by asking the chatbot to provide reasoning on a step-by-step basis.

Once he gets the breakdown, Huang asks the chatbot to provide alternative explanations for its reasoning. He then asks the AI to apply the reasoning to a different situation. Lastly, Huang requests analogies for further clarification.
&#8220;You can ask an AI today, &#8216;Reason with me, tell me why did you suggest that, tell me step by step how you arrived at that answer.&#8217; Through that probing process, AI is more transparent today, AI is more explainable today,&#8221; Huang said.
&#8220;Your set of questions could be like professors probe their students to understand their thinking process.&#8221;
Huang explained that confidence and certainty are two separate ideas. Leaders must have a great deal of confidence in what they are doing, but they don&#8217;t have to be certain, he noted.
It&#8217;s possible to be completely confident in pursuing a direction and still allow room for uncertainty. That room for uncertainty gives you the opportunity to continue to learn, Huang said.
