Applied DNA Regains Compliance With Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Requirement

Applied DNA Sciences Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APDN#NASDAQ">APDN</a>) shares are trading higher by 6.0% to $1.76 during Tuesday&#8217;s session after the company announced it positioned its TR8 PGx testing as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/ac44586006/applied-dna-positions-tr8-pgx-testing-service-as-pre-emptive-testing-for-safety-of-fluoropyrimidi">pre-emptive testing</a> for therapeutic safety.
What To Know: Applied DNA Sciences on Tuesday announced that its subsidiary, Applied DNA Clinical Labs (ADCL), is refining its TR8 PGx pharmacogenomics testing service by offering specialized subpanels for specific medical conditions. 
The first subpanel targets patients with DPYD gene variants, which can affect metabolism of chemotherapy drugs fluorouracil (5-FU) and capecitabine (Xeloda), potentially leading to severe toxicities. This move follows an FDA safety notice emphasizing the risks for patients with DPD enzyme deficiencies. 
ADCL's TR8 PGx test, approved in New York, screens for over 33 drug metabolism genes. CEO Dr. James A. Hayward highlighted plans for additional subpanels in oncology, cardiology and psychiatry to enhance clinical decision-making and increase adoption of PGx testing.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy APDN Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Applied DNA Sciences&#8217; case, it is in the Health Care sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, APDN has a 52-week high of $460.00 and a 52-week low of $1.45.

&nbsp;
A new case of Mpox has been confirmed in the UK, the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has said.
The latest case of Clade Ib Mpox is the seventh confirmed case since October 2024 after a sixth patient <a href="https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/uk-news/new-mpox-case-detected-uk-30823540">was admitted to hospital last week</a>.
<a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/news/ukhsa-detects-first-case-of-clade-ib-mpox?utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=govuk-notifications-topic&amp;utm_source=d72f8bd1-0516-4336-9e7d-b4f8a791ba9a&amp;utm_content=immediately">The UKHSA says</a> the infected patient had recently travelled to Uganda and that the risk to the UK population "remains low". The UKHSA and <a href="https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/all-about/nhs">NHS</a> says it will not be disclosing any further details about the infected person.
Professor Susan Hopkins, Chief Medical Adviser at UKHSA, said: "The risk to the UK population remains low. Close contacts have been identified and offered appropriate advice in order to reduce the chance of further spread."
Mpox, previously known as monkeypox, is a rare infection most commonly found in parts of central and east Africa.
There is currently community transmission of the virus in Uganda, which has so far recorded <a href="https://www.afro.who.int/countries/uganda/publication/mpox-outbreak-uganda-situation-update-22-january-2025">2,209 confirmed Mpox cases</a> and 13 deaths since July 2024.
The Clade Ib variant is a new form of the virus, the which the World Health Organisation (WHO) declared as a global health emergency in August.
WHO says common symptoms of Mpox include a skin rash or lesions which can last two to four weeks, as well as a fever, headache, muscle aches, back pain, low energy and swollen lymph nodes.
<a href="https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/mpox/">The NHS says</a> Mpox can be passed on from person to person through:
Close physical contact with Mpox blisters or scabs
Touching clothing, bedding or towels used by someone with Mpox
The coughs or sneezes of a person with Mpox when they're close to you

Applied Dna Sciences Announced That It Has Rescheduled Its Investor Update Call To Thursday, February 13, 2025

U.S. stock futures climbed on Wednesday in premarket hours as Wall Street awaits the Federal Reserve&#8217;s final interest rate decision for 2024 and its monetary policy forecasts for 2025.
On Tuesday, the Dow Jones index fell for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/12/42546507/dow-records-longest-losing-streak-since-1978-nvidia-declines-fear-greed-index-in-neutral-zone">ninth session in a row</a> to record its longest losing streak since 1978.
The 10-year and two-year Treasury notes yielded 4.40% and 4.25%, respectively. The Federal Open Market Committee will announce its decision later in the day after a two-day meeting.
It is widely expected to announce another interest rate reduction at the conclusion of their meeting on Wednesday. Expectations of a 25 basis point rate cut rose to 95.4%, from 58.7% a month ago, according <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">to</a> CME Group&#8217;s FedWatch tool.
If the Fed cuts rates, it would be the third consecutive cut, bringing the federal funds rate down from its current level of 4.50% to 4.75%. Following the meeting, Chairman Jerome Powell&#8217;s remarks will be closely scrutinized by market participants.
Investors will receive another critical economic data point on Friday with the release of the November personal consumption expenditures (PCE) inflation index. This release follows other inflation indicators that suggest price increases accelerated in November.
Prior to that, GDP revisions on Thursday will reveal whether the economy maintained the previously estimated 2.8% growth rate for the third quarter.

In premarket trading on Wednesday, the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) was up 0.25% to $605.80 and the Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) rose 0.24% to $537.09, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Cues From The Last Session

This negative trend weighed on the broader U.S. stock market.
While Tesla shares rallied after a positive analyst upgrade, Nvidia experienced a slight decline.
On the economic front, U.S. retail sales exceeded expectations in November, suggesting increased consumer spending. However, industrial production contracted, signaling a slowdown in manufacturing activity.
The S&amp;P 500 saw a broad-based decline, with industrials, energy, and financials leading the losses. Consumer discretionary stocks, on the other hand, bucked the trend and closed higher.
At the close of trading, the Dow Jones Industrial Average had fallen by approximately 268 points to 43,449.90. The S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq Composite also ended the day lower, declining by 0.39% and 0.32%, respectively.

Insights From Analysts
The Dow Jones Industrial Average index last saw a nine-day fall for the first time since February 1978, according to FactSet data. However, the index has seen steeper crashes in a single day as compared to the cumulative erosion it has witnessed over these nine days.
Dow Jones has fallen nearly 3.47% to 43,449.90 points over the last nine days since Dec. 4, when it was at 45,014.04 points.
&#8220;Since 1900, I see 267 times it lost more than 3.47% in a single day,&#8221; said Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Research.

According to BlackRock, the global economy is undergoing a transformation that could keep shifting the long-term economic trend. They suggest that investors should shift to distinct drivers of risk and return.
&#8220;That creates a wide range of potential outcomes and a need to use scenarios to guide portfolio construction, we think. Government bonds have become a less reliable cushion against risk asset selloffs in this new regime. So investors should consider new diversifiers like gold and bitcoin – not to replace bonds, but to get exposure to distinct drivers of risk and return.&#8221;
&#8220;We see the AI buildout and adoption creating opportunities across sectors,&#8221; BlackRock&#8217;s note added.
&#8220;Overall, with so much uncertainty around tariffs and inflation, bond market volatility is unlikely to fade anytime soon,&#8221; said JPMorgan in their note.
&#8220;The week's economic data releases appeared to be enough for markets to solidify expectations for a rate cut at the upcoming Federal Reserve meeting,&#8221; said T Rowe Price in their weekly note.
