&nbsp;
As unmanned vehicle technology improves and personnel safety becomes a top priority, military and commercial sectors are accelerating adoption –&nbsp;driving strong demand for the IMUs that power their navigation and control systems. An IMU measures angular velocity and linear acceleration using MEMS gyroscopes and accelerometers respectively. They have become essential in a wide range of guidance and navigation, orientation and stabilization applications, particularly for short- and medium-range flight control systems. The IMU is also a component of higher order systems such as inertial navigation systems (INS), attitude and heading reference systems (AHRS) and motion reference units (MRU). Applications include autonomous vehicles for land, sea, aerospace and defense.
The tactical-grade IMU-H100 includes accelerometers and gyroscopes for all three axes and offers a gyro and accel bias of 1 deg/hr and 1 mg respectively. The 5 in3, 160 g IMU also exceeds the performance of equivalent products on the market in terms of data rate, measurement range, stability and repeatability over harsh environmental conditions – including vibration, shock, high acceleration, spinning, temperature and acoustic noise.
In addition to its sophisticated capabilities, the IMU-H100 is designed for ease and speed of integration into customers' operations. It supports the Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) and Synchronous Data Link Control (SDLC) used in many legacy systems, making it ideal for retrofitting initiatives. It is also ITAR-free, available with a lead time of weeks rather than months, and is manufactured in the United States.

The Trump administration has asked the Supreme Court to allow the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to access sensitive Social Security data, furthering a legal battle over data privacy and executive authority.
What Happened: The emergency appeal comes after a divided federal court ruling that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44697671/trump-administrations-push-to-access-social-security-data-faces-major-setback-as-court-dismisses-appeal">stopped DOGE from accessing personal data</a>, including Americans' medical records and bank details.
"The government cannot eliminate waste and fraud," the administration said in its appeal, "if district courts bar the very agency personnel&#8230; from performing their jobs."
Chief Justice John Roberts is reviewing the case, with a May 12 deadline set for responses. Lower courts criticized the amount of data requested, with one judge calling DOGE's effort a "fishing expedition," according <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/05/02/politics/doge-fight-social-security-data-supreme-court">to</a> CNN.

Why It Matters: The case will demonstrate how far the executive branch can go in using personal data to update government systems. "District court control of decisions about internal access&#8230; constitutes inappropriate superintendence of a coequal branch," the administration said.
Earlier this month, reports emerged that two individuals linked to DOGE were provided accounts on classified U.S. government networks that manage sensitive nuclear weapons data.
DOGE has been previously linked with privacy and security concerns across other federal agencies, such as its attempts to access <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43768756/privacy-concerns-emerge-as-elon-musks-doge-team-seeks-access-to-taxpayer-data" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">taxpayer data</a>, and its reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44683851/elon-musks-secretive-doge-team-using-ai-and-disappearing-messages-to-monitor-federal-workers-for-anti-trump-sentiment-bypassing-records-laws-and-locking-out-agencies-report" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">tracking of employee communications using artificial intelligence tools.</a>

Elanco Animal Health Incorporated (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ELAN#NYSE">ELAN</a>) today announced the sale of certain future tiered royalties and commercial milestones associated with XDEMVY&#xAE; (lotilaner ophthalmic solution) 0.25%, for the human health application of lotilaner, to funds affiliated with Blackstone Life Sciences and Blackstone Credit &amp; Insurance for $295 million in cash. Monetization of this non-core asset will be used to accelerate debt reduction, positioning Elanco to achieve an expected net leverage ratio of 3.9x to 4.3x adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2025. Elanco will repay portions of its outstanding term loans on a pro-rata basis, which is expected to reduce interest expense by approximately $10 million, offset by the sale of approximately $10 million of royalties based on Elanco's initial 2025 guidance.
&nbsp;
In 2019, Elanco exclusively licensed lotilaner to Tarsus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TARS#NASDAQ">TARS</a>) for exploration as a solution to several unmet human health needs. In 2023, XDEMVY became the first lotilaner-based product approved for human use and the only FDA-approved medicine for treatment of Demodex blepharitis (DB), a common eyelid disease in humans caused by Demodex mites.

U.S. stock futures fell on Monday after a nine-day winning streak on the S&amp;P 500 index. Futures of major benchmark indices were lower in premarket.
The S&amp;P 500 index notched a nine-day advance for the first time since November 2004 on Friday.
While aboard Air Force One, Donald Trump confirmed U.S. officials are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/05/45188171/china-pushes-for-special-envoys-as-direct-deal-with-trump-deemed-risky-plans-fentanyl-concessions-as-negotiating-leverage-report">engaged in trade discussions</a> with Chinese counterparts, though he has no planned meeting with President Xi Jinping this week. 
While the Chinese have proposed the concept of special envoys, the U.S. is reluctant, favoring direct negotiations between Trump and Xi. However, the Chinese view this proposal as "risky and uncertain", <a href="https://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy/article/3308919/us-china-trade-stand-ease-negotiators-must-be-agreed-upon-analysts">reported</a> the South China Morning Post.
Investors will also keep an eye on the Federal Reserve&#8217;s decision on interest rates this week.
Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.31% and the two-year bond was at 3.82%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections show markets pricing a 98.2% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its May meeting.

Cues From Last Session:
Bolstered by strong performances in financial, communication services, and industrial stocks on Friday, U.S. markets finished the week higher for all major averages.
The S&amp;P 500, which recorded its ninth consecutive day of gains, the longest since Nov. 2004, and added 2.9% for the week, saw contrasting movements with health care and consumer staples declining on Friday. The Dow gained 3% and the Nasdaq rose 3.4% for the week.
After the end of the nine-day streak, the S&amp;P 500 index was out of the correction zone, just down 7.5% from its record high of 6,147.43 points, scaled on Feb. 19. Dow Jones was 8.33% lower than its 52-week high of 45,073.63 points and Nasdaq 100 was 9.54% lower than its previous high of 22,222.61 points.
Strong jobs data and rising factory orders buoyed the market. Nonfarm payrolls exceeded forecasts at 177,000, easing tariff-related hiring concerns, while the unemployment rate held steady at 4.2%. Additionally, new orders for U.S.-manufactured goods jumped 4.3% in March to $618.8 billion.
The Dow Jones index jumped 565 points or 1.39% to 41,317.43, whereas the S&amp;P 500 index surged 1.47% to 5,686.67. Nasdaq Composite ended 1.51% higher at 17,977.73, and the small-cap gauge, Russell 2000, also advanced 2.27% to 2,020.74.

Insights From Analysts:
According to Brian Therien, the investment strategist at Edward Jones, the process of completing a U.S.-China trade deal would likely be complex and lengthy. &#8220;Any de-escalation in trade tensions should be positive for the economy and financial markets, in our view,&#8221; he said.
The solid labor market should allow the Fed to remain on hold a while longer, said Therien, as it will help the Fed to gain greater clarity on the impact of tariffs on inflation.
&#8220;Bond markets have pushed back expectations for the next Fed funds rate cut to July, from June, though total rate cuts priced in for this year remain in the 3-4 range,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;Wider earnings growth should drive more balanced market performance across sectors, strengthening the case for portfolio diversification, in our view,&#8221; he said about corporate earnings.
Ryan Detrick from Carson Research highlighted that the S&amp;P 500 has witnessed seven other nine-day winning streaks over the last 40 years.
&#8220;Only once did the economy move into a recession within six months, and that was in 1990 when oil spiked due to Iraq invading Kuwait,&#8221; he highlighted.

Fund manager Dan Niles suggests the recent stock market rally may be running out of steam as pull-forward demand artificially boosted first-quarter results and economic uncertainties mount.
What Happened:&nbsp; Niles, founder of Niles Investment Management, shared on X that the S&amp;P 500, as tracked by&nbsp;SPDR S&amp;P 500 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) has rallied 14% from its April 8 lows through May 2, driven by &#8220;better than feared guidance during earnings season and hopes of 90 trade deals in 90 days.&#8221;
However, he now believes &#8220;there is not much upside left to this rally,&#8221; noting troubling signs as even strong performers like Amazon.com Inc.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) declined on Friday despite beating quarterly expectations.
&#8220;It would not surprise me if the actual announcements turned into sell the news events,&#8221; Niles wrote. 
Niles highlighted the staggering 41% year-over-year increase in imports reported in first-quarter Gross Domestic Product data, suggesting significant demand pull-in ahead of tariffs that &#8220;will eventually need to be paid back in future quarters.&#8221;
He drew parallels to previous bear market rallies, noting the S&amp;P had 11 rallies of 10% on average during the Global Financial Crisis while ultimately losing 57% over 18 months.

With the S&amp;P&#8217;s trailing price-to-earnings ratio now at 24 times and economic uncertainty &#8220;higher today than back then,&#8221; Niles believes earnings estimates will ultimately decline for the second half of 2025.
Niles previously excluded all &#8220;Magnificent 7&#8221; tech giants from his top stock picks for 2025, citing &#8220;disappointing first-quarter earnings outlook&#8221; among his reasons.
He also pointed to Berkshire Hathaway Inc. growing its cash position to $348 billion while being a net seller of stocks for 10 straight quarters, reflecting &#8220;caution also on Warren Buffett&#8216;s part.&#8221;
