Lockheed Martin To Rally Over 14%? Here Are 10 Top Analyst Forecasts For Friday

The Biden-Harris Administration revealed that the U.S. Department of Commerce and Amkor Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMKR#NASDAQ">AMKR</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.commerce.gov/news/press-releases/2024/07/biden-harris-administration-announces-preliminary-terms-amkor" rel="noreferrer noopener">signed </a>a preliminary memorandum of terms to provide up to $400 million in funding under the CHIPS and Science Act.
This funding supports Amkor&#8217;s planned $2 billion semiconductor packaging facility in Peoria, Arizona, which is expected to create 2,000 jobs and boost the domestic semiconductor supply chain.
Amkor announced in November 2023 its plans to build its first domestic outsourced semiconductor <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/39978603">assembly and test facility in Peoria, Arizona.</a>
Amkor&#8217;s Arizona facility will utilize technology, including 2.5D technology crucial for AI and high-performance computing.
President Biden&#8217;s CHIPS and Science Act, a pivotal part of his Investing in America agenda, aims to revitalize U.S. semiconductor manufacturing, enhance supply chain security, and foster job creation.
The proposed funding will help Amkor build the largest advanced packaging facility in the U.S., supporting high-performance computing, AI, communications, and automotive markets.
Amkor has secured approximately 55 acres and intends to build the campus with more than 500,000 square feet of clean room space. The first phase of the manufacturing facility is targeted to be ready for production within three years.
Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo highlighted the significance of this investment in meeting the rising demand for AI chips and securing economic and national security.

This initiative ensures that companies like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>), Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), and GlobalFoundries Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GFS#NASDAQ">GFS</a>) can package and test essential chips domestically, reinforcing the entire chip manufacturing process within the U.S. 
Amkor plans to take advantage of the Department of the Treasury&#8217;s Investment Tax Credit, which is expected to be up to&nbsp;25%&nbsp;of qualified capital expenditures.
In addition to the proposed direct funding of up to $400 million, the CHIPS Program Office would make approximately $200 million of proposed loans, which is part of the $75 billion in loan authority provided by the CHIPS and Science Act, available to Amkor under the preliminary memorandum of terms.
Price Action: AMKR shares are trading lower by 0.75% at $37.90 at last check Friday.

On Friday, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a negative opinion on the approval of Eisai Co., Ltd (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESALY#OTC">ESALY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESALF#OTC">ESALF</a>) and Biogen Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIIB#NASDAQ">BIIB</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/04/38413442/biogeneisais-popular-alzheimers-drug-leqembi-is-seeing-slow-adoption-heres-why" rel="noreferrer noopener">lecanemab</a>.
The companies seek approval for the humanized anti-soluble aggregated amyloid-beta (Aβ) monoclonal antibody as a treatment for early AD (mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer&#8217;s disease (AD) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/07/g39981134/update-on-regulatory-review-of-lecanemab-for-early-alzheimers-disease-in-the-european-union" rel="noreferrer noopener">and mild AD)</a>.
The committee <a target="_blank" href="https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/news/meeting-highlights-committee-medicinal-products-human-use-chmp-22-25-july-2024" rel="noreferrer noopener">considered</a> that the observed effect of Leqembi on delaying cognitive decline does not counterbalance the risk of serious side events associated with the medicine, in particular, the frequent occurrence of amyloid-related imaging abnormalities involving swelling and potential bleedings in the brain of patients who received Leqembi.

In June, the FDA&#8217;s advisory committee delivered a favorable verdict on the Eli Lilly And Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) Alzheimer&#8217;s treatment donanemab,&nbsp;declaring its benefits to surpass <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39277429/eli-lillys-donanemab-gains-favorable-fda-advisory-verdict-boosting-stock-potential-" rel="noreferrer noopener">the associated risks</a>.
&#8220;We are extremely disappointed by the CHMP&#8217;s negative opinion and understand that this may also be disappointing for the wider Alzheimer&#8217;s disease community,&#8221; said Lynn Kramer, Chief Clinical Officer at Eisai.
Eisai will seek re-examination of the CHMP opinion and work with the relevant authorities to ensure this treatment is available for eligible people living with early AD in the European Union (EU) as soon as possible.
Lecanemab has already been approved in the United States, Japan, China, South Korea, Hong Kong, and Israel, and it is being marketed in the U.S. (as&nbsp;Leqembi), Japan, and China.
AD currently affects 6.9 million people in Europe, which is expected to nearly double by 2050 as aging populations increase.
Eisai serves as the lead for lecanemab&#8217;s development and regulatory submissions globally. Both Eisai and Biogen co-commercialize and co-promote the product, and Eisai has final decision-making authority.
Price Action: BIIB stock is down 6.11% at $213.55 at the last check on Friday.

An audio webcast with David Klein, CEO and Judy Hong, CFO  will take place on August 9, at 10 am ET.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Canopy&#8217;s European Expansion</h2>
Canopy has been ramping up its presence in the Czech Republic as the country's officials are considering a fully legal commercial adult-use <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39773667/leaked-documents-czech-republic-plans-to-set-up-legal-recreational-cannabis-market">cannabis market as part of its ‘Cannabis Management Act.&#8217;</a> Its medical brand is servicing other European markets like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39773667/leaked-documents-czech-republic-plans-to-set-up-legal-recreational-cannabis-market">Poland</a> and Germany as well, as well as Asia-Pacific markets, including <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/10/35162207/canopy-growth-shares-up-slightly-in-pre-market-trading-on-eu-gmp-certification-news">Australia and New Zealand.</a> That said, Canopy's International markets cannabis net revenue increased 32% year-over-year to CA$12 million in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/05/39085695/canopy-growth-reports-7-yoy-increase-in-q4-net-revenue-continues-focus-on-innovation-in-canada-a">fourth quarter driven by growth in Germany and Poland.</a>
On the heels of reporting its fourth quarter results for the fiscal year that ended March 31, 2024, Canopy CEO David Klein said the company will seize positive cannabis regulatory shifts in Germany and the United States, Klein added. &#8220;Entering FY2025, Canopy has growing businesses in the world's most attractive cannabis markets, a leading portfolio of high-impact brands, and a rapidly developing U.S. ecosystem."
In early June, Canopy said it has established an at-the-market equity program under which it can issue and sell up to $250 million worth of its common shares from treasury from time to time in concurrent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39207292/canopy-growth-announces-250m-at-the-market-equity-program">public offerings in the United States and Canada.</a> The announcement has generated significant buzz within the cannabis industry, as highlighted by Benzinga's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/author/javier-hasse">Javier Hasse</a> at the time.
"We're pleased to announce this offering, which further enhances Canopy's financial flexibility and balance sheet," Judy Hong,&nbsp;Canopy Growth&#8217;s CFO told Benzinga Cannabis <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39233003/exclusive-canopy-growth-cfo-on-atm-equity-offering-we-have-one-of-the-strongest-balance-sheets-i">exclusively</a>. "Having already reduced our debt by more than $1.1 billion over the past 18 months, and with no material debt maturing until 2026, Canopy has one of the strongest balance sheets among major cannabis companies."
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/viridian-capital-advisors">Viridian Valuation Tracker</a>'s report in June on Canadian cultivation and retail companies with market caps over $100 million market Canopy is the best performer in the group based on its year-to-date stock performance.
Why? Canopy&#8217;s better performance is <a href="https://dealtracker.viridianca.com/valuation-tracker-by-industry-sector/">attributed</a> to its acquisition of U.S. plant-touching <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39237411/how-these-2-nasdaq-listed-marijuana-companies-found-a-way-to-raise-250m-without-tan">companies into Canopy USA</a>.

Canopy Growth And Other Hot Cannabis Stocks Will Soon Report Earnings, What Investors Need To Know Now

MetLife's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MET#NYSE">MET</a>) short percent of float has fallen 9.66% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 7.74 million shares sold short, which is 1.31% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.55 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>Comparing MetLife'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>, MetLife's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.97%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

	<li>Amid Russia&#39;s invasion of Ukraine, the oil price has surged to its highest level since 2008. This oil price increase comes as many carriers are forced to fly longer routings to avoid Russian and Ukrainian airspace,&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/airlines-use-hedging-fuel-surcharges-offset-some-pain-oil-surges-2022-03-07/" style="background-image:initial; background-position:initial; background-size:initial; background-repeat:initial; background-attachment:initial; background-origin:initial; background-clip:initial; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; color:#4a6ee0" target="_blank">reported Reuters</a>.</li>
	<li>The price surge is another addition to airline costs when the carriers have already struggled to recover from a pandemic-related dip in demand.</li>
	<li>On Saturday, Malaysia&#39;s AirAsia,&nbsp;Capital A Berhad&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIABF#OTC">AIABF</a>), introduced fuel surcharges on tickets for the first time since 2015.</li>

	<li>Some carriers are fully unhedged, like&nbsp;Wizz Air&nbsp;Holdings PLC&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WZZAF#OTC">WZZAF</a>)) and U.S. majors&nbsp;United Airlines Holdings Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>),&nbsp;American Airlines Group Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>), and&nbsp;Delta Air Lines Inc&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), though the latter owns an oil refinery, the report noted.</li>
	<li>Others have oil hedges that will help offset portions of the price increase, like&nbsp;Air France-KLM&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AFRAF#OTC">AFRAF</a>), which has hedged 72% of oil consumption for the first quarter and 63% for the second quarter at $90 a barrel.</li>
	<li>Air New Zealand&nbsp;Ltd&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANZFF#OTC">ANZFF</a>) has hedged 1.34 million barrels of oil in the current half ending June 30 and 707,500 barrels in the following half-year period.

	<li>Cathay Pacific Airways&nbsp;Ltd&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPCAY#OTC">CPCAY</a>) hedged more than 60% of its expected first-quarter consumption and about half of its second-quarter consumption.</li>
	<li>EasyJet PLC&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESYJY#OTC">ESYJY</a>) airline 60% hedged for fuel in the financial year ending on September 30 at around $504 per metric tonne.</li>

	<li>Ryanair Holdings plc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RYAAY#NASDAQ">RYAAY</a>) is 80% hedged on fuel out to 2023.

	<li>Singapore Airlines&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SINGY#OTC">SINGY</a>) has hedged 30% of its oil needs at an average Brent price of $57 a barrel for the six months ending March 31.
