Aura Biosciences (NASDAQ:AURA) Azioni

AURA BIOSCIENCES INC

Aura Biosciences

Aura Biosciences Inc is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing precision immunotherapies to treat a range of solid tumors designed to preserve the function of organs afflicted with cancer. Its candidate bel-sar is in late-stage clinical development for the treatment of patients with primary choroidal melanoma, and other ocular oncology indications as well as in early-stage clinical development in bladder cancer. The Company views its operations and manages its business in one operating segment operating exclusively in the United States.

Gulfport Energy Corporation&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GPOR#NYSE">GPOR</a>) stock is climbing on Friday, up nearly 5%, as investors anticipate strong second-quarter earnings, driven by a strategic reevaluation of its capital spending plans.
The company is notably reallocating resources towards dry gas development in the latter half of the year, including adding a four-well dry gas Utica pad, while adjusting its wet gas Marcellus pad schedule. 
This proactive approach and current capital efficiency trends could allow Gulfport to accelerate completions if natural gas market conditions remain favorable, potentially leading to low single-digit growth in 2026 and a departure from its current maintenance strategy.

This pivot has been met with a positive outlook from JP Morgan. Zach Parham, an analyst at JP Morgan, reiterated the Overweight rating on Gulfport Energy, raising the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GPOR/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast from $208 to $236</a>.
Parham anticipates a robust second quarter from Gulfport Energy, highlighting the company&#8217;s decision in the first quarter to reallocate some of its capital spending toward dry gas development in the latter half of the year. This includes adding a four-well dry gas Utica pad while postponing a four-well wet gas Marcellus pad.
Should the broader gas market remain favorable, Gulfport could accelerate some completions into the fourth quarter. Given current trends in capital efficiency, the company may be able to accommodate this additional activity without revising its existing capital expenditure guidance, as Parham writes.
With a growing emphasis on dry gas, there&#8217;s a chance Gulfport could transition to low single-digit growth in 2026, moving away from its current maintenance plan. Parham sees this as a positive development in light of a supportive 2026 outlook for natural gas.
After adjusting for market conditions in the second quarter, Parham estimates cash flow per share (CFPS) at $11.07, slightly ahead of the Street estimate of $10.77. EBITDA is forecasted at $208 million, modestly below the consensus of $223 million.
Estimated production of 1,037 MMcfe/d represents a 12% sequential increase and aligns with Street expectations, while oil output is pegged at 8.1 MBo/d, well ahead of the 7.0 MBo/d consensus.
Gulfport Energy&#8217;s second quarter natural gas realization is projected at $3.00 per Mcf before hedging, implying a $0.44 discount to NYMEX. Capital expenditures for the quarter are expected to land at $124 million, slightly exceeding consensus.
Parham forecasts $65 million in free cash flow, with $58 million allocated to share buybacks. This apart, the analyst anticipates an update on land acquisitions during the second-quarter earnings call, likely consistent with previous years&#8217; spending of around $45 to $50 million.
Price Action: GPOR shares are trading higher by 4.52% to $183.89&nbsp;at last check Friday.

Hive expects to hit 6.5 EH/s at the site by late August, 18 EH/s globally by summer's end, and 25 EH/s by Thanksgiving.
"With this momentum, the Company remains on track to achieve 18 EH/s by summer&#8217;s end and 25 EH/s by American Thanksgiving 2025," Hive said.

Hive Digital Shares Gain on Hashrate and Revenue Update

Signing Day Sports, Inc. (AMEX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SGN#AMEX">SGN</a>) shares moved higher Friday after the company revealed that BlockchAIn Digital Infrastructure Inc., a newly formed entity, has confidentially submitted a draft registration statement (Form S-4) with the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/g46362663/signing-day-sports-advances-business-combination-with-one-blockchain-llc-confidential-draft-regist" rel="noreferrer noopener">U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission</a>.
The move is part of an ongoing business combination agreement signed earlier this year between Signing Day Sports and BlockchAIn's operating affiliate, One Blockchain LLC.
The transaction, first <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/g44784764/signing-day-sports-signs-non-binding-letter-of-intent-to-acquire-all-equity-of-blockchain-digital-" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">announced </a>in April 2025 and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/g45642424/signing-day-sports-progresses-transaction-and-executes-definitive-agreement-with-blockchain-digita" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">formalized </a>in May, aims to bring both companies under a holding structure, with the combined entity — known as PubCo — expected to list its common shares on the NYSE American.

Under the deal, Signing Day Sports will become a subsidiary of BlockchAIn Digital Infrastructure alongside One Blockchain.
The latter will continue to operate under the leadership of CEO Jerry Tang, focusing on crypto mining and high-performance computing.
In 2024, BlockchAIn DI generated $26.8 million in revenue and $5.7 million in net income, setting the stage for aggressive expansion.
BlockchAIn DI operates a 40MW crypto hosting site in South Carolina, with plans to expand to 50MW and begin in-house mining by early 2026. A separate 150MW modular data center in Texas, designed for both crypto and AI-related HPC workloads, is also underway.
The first 100MW will support internal mining, while the remaining 50MW will serve external hosting needs.
The $215 million transaction involves no cash payment from Signing Day Sports. Instead, One Blockchain securityholders will own approximately 91.5% of the combined entity, while Signing Day Sports shareholders will retain about 8.5%.
An earnout clause provides for additional shares if PubCo hits $25 million in EBITDA in 2026.
SGN Price Action: Signing Day Sports shares are trading higher by 98.37% to $2.44 at publication Friday.

Why Signing Day Sports Stock Is Soaring Today

It's not every day you hear about a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/25/06/46067598/bill-gates-kids-were-stunned-to-find-warren-buffett-chowing-down-on-oreos-for-breakfast-after-a-sleepover-naturally-they-demanded-some-too">billionaire spending a weekend</a> at the beach with his ex — and having his wife's full blessing. But that's exactly what Bill Gates arranged before marrying Melinda French in 1994.
According to a <a href="https://time.com/archive/6596654/in-search-of-the-real-bill-gates/">Time magazine profile written by Walter Isaacson</a> in 1997, Gates had a unique agreement with Melinda: he could spend one long weekend each spring with his ex-girlfriend, software entrepreneur and venture capitalist Ann Winblad, at her beach cottage on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
The getaway spot, <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/05/05/see-inside-bill-gates-secret-love-nest-with-gal-pal-ann-winblad/">reportedly a cozy four-bedroom oceanfront house</a> in Corolla called "Castle Sween," became a tradition. "Every spring, as they have for more than a decade, Gates spends a long weekend with Winblad at her beach cottage… where they ride dune buggies, hang-glide and walk on the beach," Isaacson wrote.
Don't Miss:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die."<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/warren-buffet-make-money-when-you-sleep"> Here&#8217;s how you can earn passive income with just $10.</a></li>

</ul>
It wasn't exactly scandalous in tone — but it was certainly unconventional. Especially considering what they did there.
"We can play putt-putt while discussing biotechnology," Gates told Isaacson.
Winblad, for her part, described their time together in more poetic terms: "We share our thoughts about the world and ourselves," she said. "And we marvel about how, as two young overachievers, we began a great adventure on the fringes of a little-known industry and it landed us at the center of an amazing universe."
The relationship between Gates and Winblad began in the 1980s after they met at a computer conference. According to the same Time profile, they once went on "virtual dates" by driving to the same movie in different cities and discussing it on their cell phones. Winblad even convinced him to go vegetarian for a while — a phase he "resolutely abandoned."
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
They dated exclusively from 1984 until 1987, when they broke up "partly because Winblad, five years older, was more ready for marriage," the article said. Despite the breakup, the bond remained.
So strong, in fact, that Gates sought Winblad's opinion before proposing to Melinda. "When I was off on my own thinking about marrying Melinda, I called Ann and asked for her approval," he said. Winblad gave it, later saying, "I said she'd be a good match for him because she had intellectual stamina."
While the setup might seem cartoonish by today's standards — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44659151/bill-and-melinda-gates-agreed-its-not-fair-we-have-so-much-wealth-and-say-their-money-opens-doors-most-people-will-never-get-through">one of the world's richest men</a> retreating to the beach with his ex to hit mini golf balls and talk about gene therapy — Gates presented it as a matter of mutual respect and friendship. Melinda, according to Gates, approved of the arrangement.
Still, the public fascination with the annual rendezvous resurfaced when the couple <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46263690/melinda-french-gates-tried-to-hold-it-together-for-the-family-and-foundation-but-indicates-bill-gatess-infidelity-left-her-no-choice">announced their divorce in 2021</a>, prompting many to revisit the odd clause in one of the world's most high-profile marriages.
As for the cottage, the beach, and the putt-putt? That's all part of the legacy too. Just another reminder that even in the most data-driven marriages, there's always room for a little emotional code — as long as everyone signs off on the terms.

Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) price has remained locked in a narrow trading band for weeks before its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46363070/bitcoin-sets-all-time-high-at-118909-ethereum-xrp-surge-8-each">all-time high breakout</a>, but on-chain and market data point to growing pressure that could soon unleash sharp volatility.
<a href="https://insights.glassnode.com/the-week-onchain-week-27-2025/">According</a> to blockchain analytics firm Glassnode, the market was coiling in a historically tight range amid strong investor accumulation and record ETF ownership, conditions that often precede large directional moves.
Across a range of timeframes, realized and implied volatility in Bitcoin markets has dropped near historical lows. 
Just 6% of trading days since late 2022 have recorded a tighter 30-day price range than current levels. 
On a 60-day basis, the figure drops to just 0.4%.
Options markets show a similar picture: implied volatility is also near the lowest levels recorded in over two years, suggesting traders are not yet pricing in a major move, often a contrarian indicator.
While price has stagnated, underlying demand has remained robust. 
Bitcoin wallets holding less than 100 BTC, categorized as "shrimp," "crab," and "fish" cohorts, are accumulating coins at a rate of 19,300 BTC per month, far exceeding the current mining issuance of 13,400 BTC per month.
Long-term holders (LTHs) are also adding to their stacks, with their net accumulation outpacing new supply. 
"These tenured investors appear unwilling to distribute their coins at the current spot price, and require a meaningful market move before the next wave of action unfolds," the report said.

Approximately 19% of Bitcoin's circulating supply is now clustered within ±10% of the current price, suggesting that even modest price changes could significantly impact investor sentiment and trigger cascading reactions.
Despite slowing inflows over the past week, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs now collectively hold $137 billion in assets, an all-time high. 
BlackRock's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBIT#NASDAQ">IBIT</a>) alone accounts for 55% of this total, with Fidelity and Grayscale following at 16.2% and 14.7%, respectively.
IBIT's dominance extends to the options market, where it commands 97% of total open interest across Bitcoin ETF options. 
This growing share has created a self-reinforcing loop of liquidity, lower spreads, and increased participation, cementing its influence on price discovery.
Interestingly, IBIT's average cost basis—$75.3k—is closely aligned with Glassnode's "True Market Mean" ($72.2k) and "Active Investor Price" ($78.4k), reinforcing its representativeness of broader investor positioning.
In sum, the report suggests that the Bitcoin market is currently in a high-tension state, driven by tightening supply, subdued volatility, and accumulating demand.
"The longer the consolidation continues, the greater the potential energy stored in the price structure," Glassnode concluded. "When the market finally moves, the resulting volatility expansion is likely to be significant."

AMC Entertainment (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMC#NYSE">AMC</a>) stock surged on Friday after Wedbush analyst Alicia Reese <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AMC/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">upgraded it from</a> Neutral to Outperform and raised its price forecast from $3 to $4.
Reese noted that AMC will benefit from a steadier film release schedule in the coming quarters, which should support consistent box office performance.
According to the analyst, the company is well-positioned to gain market share in 2025 and 2026, thanks to its ownership of the highest number of premium screens in North America and expansion efforts in the U.K. and EU.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/small-cap/25/06/45799991/amc-eyes-ad-revenue-lift-with-premium-pre-movie-ads" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">AMC Eyes Ad Revenue Lift With Premium Pre-Movie Ads</a>
She said AMC has repaid or deferred all debt due in 2026, easing near-term financial uncertainty.
Reese noted that the company is finishing its last major share issuance for the foreseeable future, removing a key overhang for investors.
In 2025, AMC plans to shut down unprofitable locations while investing in top-performing theaters. As per the analyst, these investments are already boosting revenue per screen, currently tracking 3% above 2019 levels.
Reese expects EBITDA to cover interest expenses, reducing AMC's need to issue more equity. Management has guided for flat year-over-year CapEx in 2025, indicating that theater upgrades require minimal spending.
Reese does not expect strong growth in 2025 or 2026. The theater industry remains low-growth and in recovery mode, she said. Over the next few years, the analyst projected mid-to-high single-digit growth in box office revenue, followed by low-to-mid single-digit gains thereafter.
She said AMC also has room to grow by expanding merchandise sales, improving concession revenue per customer, and leveraging its high fixed-cost model as overall revenue improves.
Reese revised her second-quarter estimates based on updated box office performance and adjusted our forward projections to reflect the latest industry trends.
North American box office for the second quarter reached 37.4%, ahead of her previous 27% estimate. The analyst estimated AMC captured 22.0% of that total, down 50 basis points year-over-year.
Reese changed her forecast of second-quarter revenue to $1.35 billion, up from her prior $1.25 billion estimate and above the $1.337 billion consensus. The analyst also raised her adjusted EBITDA estimate to $160 million, compared to $85 million previously and the $144 million Street forecast.
Looking ahead, she noted AMC is positioned to gain market share year-over-year, with more premium titles and IMAX content coming to theaters — where AMC leads with the largest IMAX and Dolby screen footprint.
AMC continues to generate $22–$23 in domestic revenue per attendee and about $16 internationally, both roughly 30% higher than pre-pandemic levels, Reese said.
AMC Price Action: AMC stock is up 9.83% at $3.30 at publication on Friday

AMC Stock Just Got Upgrade — Could Premium Screens, Box Office Momentum Signal A Comeback?

NIO Inc. &#8211; ADR (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>) shares <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">are rising on Friday</a>.
The company&#8217;s family-oriented sub-brand Onvo reportedly kicked off pre-sales for its new flagship SUV, the L90.
The launch positions Nio for a direct face-off with domestic rival Li Auto Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LI#NASDAQ">LI</a>), which is preparing to debut its first fully electric SUV, the Li i8, later this month, <a href="https://cnevpost.com/2025/07/11/nio-onvo-begins-pre-sales-l90/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports </a>CnEV Post.

Morgan Stanley analyst Tim Hsiao reiterated his Buy rating on Nio, with a $5.90 price target, citing the launch of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NIO/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Onvo L90 electric SUV as a key catalyst.</a>
The L90 pre-sales began at a tech event in Hefei, home to Nio&#8217;s production facilities.
Onvo set an initial price of RMB279,900 ($39,000), including an 85-kWh battery — under CEO William Li&#8217;s previously stated RMB300,000 target and potentially even lower at official launch
The L90 is expected to undercut Li Auto&#8217;s upcoming Li i8 and its premium Li L9 model, which starts at RMB409,800, CnEV Post adds.
Onvo&#8217;s SUV will be available in six- and seven-seat variants, with a five-seat L80 version set to launch later this year. The
L90&#8217;s dimensions and conventional SUV styling reflect current Chinese consumer preferences and contrast with Li i8&#8217;s MPV-inspired design.
At the event, Nio&#8217;s CEO highlighted the L90&#8217;s energy efficiency and lightweight construction.
The SUV weighs between 2,250 kg and 2,385 kg, lighter than the Li i8, which ranges from 2,580 kg to 2,610 kg.
Nio also leverages its extensive charging infrastructure — over 3,400 battery swap stations and nearly 2,900 superchargers — to support the L90 rollout.
Showroom vehicles are already available across Onvo&#8217;s retail network, with official deliveries scheduled to begin Aug. 1.
This rapid deployment mirrors Li Auto&#8217;s efficiency in rolling out new models, suggesting NIO is keen on matching its rival&#8217;s speed and execution in the increasingly competitive EV market.
NIO Price Action: Nio shares are trading higher by 5.56% to $3.90 at publication on Friday.
