The Wall Street Journal Reported BlackRock Has Agreed To Acquire ElmTree Funds

Oracle Corporation&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) has declared a significant reduction in&nbsp;its database software and cloud-computing&nbsp;service prices for the federal government
What Happened: Oracle is offering a 75% discount on its license-based software — including databases and analytics tools — to government agencies. Additionally, the company is offering a &#8220;substantial&#8221; discount on its cloud service until the end of November, as stated by the General Services Administration (GSA), <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/oracle-gives-u-s-government-discount-on-cloud-and-software-9d893fc4?reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink&amp;st=kuMQUR&amp;">detailed</a> by The Wall Street Journal.
The GSA, which handles procurement for the federal government, revealed that its agreement with Oracle is the first of its kind to provide a government-wide discount on cloud infrastructure. The agency is also in talks with other cloud providers to explore the possibility of securing similar agreements.
Oracle's agreement also includes granting the federal government access to its AI services and offering specialized support for migrating IT systems to the cloud. Traditionally recognized for its database software, the company has recently expanded its government collaborations, launching a new program last month to help smaller vendors sell technology to the Defense Department.
The GSA aims to achieve these savings by negotiating directly with tech companies and bypassing third parties. The agency anticipates securing longer-term discounts with tech providers in the near future.

Why It Matters: Oracle&#8217;s recent move aligns with its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46248645/oracle-shares-soared-higher-over-the-past-month-whats-going-on">strong performance </a>over the past month, as the company&#8217;s shares soared by more than 30%. The company kicked off June with robust fourth-quarter earnings, surpassing estimates.
Oracle&#8217;s CEO, Safra Catz, noted a &#8220;strong start&#8221; to fiscal 2026, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/46171946/oracle-stock-hits-all-time-high-after-ceo-flags-strong-start-to-fiscal-2026">with the </a>company&#8217;s MultiCloud database revenue experiencing over 100% growth. This growth trajectory, coupled with Oracle&#8217;s strategic edge in the global AI race, may have influenced the company&#8217;s decision to offer these unprecedented discounts to the U.S. government.
During its fourth quarter earnings results, Oracle&#8217;s Chairman, Larry Ellison, highlighted the company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/06/45909157/larry-ellison-says-most-of-the-worlds-valuable-data-is-in-oracle-as-ai-demand-skyrockets">competitive strength</a> in its deep integration inside enterprise data architecture, a factor that allows it to compete successfully against other giants in the AI space.

Oracle Offers Deep Discounts To US Government On AI, Cloud And Database Tools: Report

U.S. stock futures declined on Monday after scaling fresh records in the previous truncated week. Futures of major benchmark indices were trading lower.
President Donald Trump said that he would be sending out letters to America's trading partners, announcing that <a href="http://market-summary/25/07/46267527/dow-futures-slip-over-100-points-amid-trumps-august-deadline-on-tariffs">tariffs would be back</a> to April 2 levels if there was no progress being made on signing a trade deal with the U.S. by then.

This move comes despite projections from the Congressional Budget Office that it will significantly expand the federal deficit and cause millions to lose their insurance coverage. Meanwhile, he also threatened an additional 10% tariff on any country that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46267477/trump-threatens-10-additional-tariff-on-all-brics-aligned-nations-says-tariff-letters-drop-at-noon-monday">aligns with BRICS</a>' anti-American policies

Cues From Last Session:
On Thursday, the financial, information technology, and industrials sectors led the gains on the S&amp;P 500, with all sectors closing positively as U.S. stocks settled higher. The S&amp;P 500 even hit record highs following the release of jobs data.
Investor sentiment got a big boost from June's nonfarm payrolls report. It showed the U.S. economy added a robust 147,000 jobs, significantly more than the 110,000 forecast.
This encouraging data helped calm worries that arose from a weak private payroll report just the day before.
Plus, the unemployment rate dipped to 4.1% from 4.2%, also beating forecasts for a rise to 4.3%, marking its lowest point since January 2025.
Tech stocks were at the forefront of this rally, with the &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; companies collectively reaching a market cap of $18.1 trillion.
Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) solidified its position as the world's most valuable company, soaring past a $3.9 trillion valuation, ahead of Microsoft Corp.

In other news, Tripadvisor Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRIP#NASDAQ">TRIP</a>) shares surged around 17% after activist investor Starboard Value acquired a 9% stake in the company.

US Stocks Likely To Open Lower After A Week Of Records: Tesla In Focus As Elon Musk Announces America Party

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk has reignited the debate surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein row amid rising tensions with U.S. President Donald Trump.
What Happened: Musk took to social media platform X on Monday to express his discontentment with the lack of arrests in the Jeffrey Epstein case.
"What's the time? Oh look, it's no-one-has-been-arrested-o'clock again," he said in the post, which had an image of a counter or a digital clock with the numbers ‘0000' on it.

Musk's post could be another attack by the billionaire on President Trump and the administration over what Musk believes is a lack of legal action on the government's part over the case.
Why It Matters: The comments echo Musk's previous statement as tensions first rose between him and Trump. The billionaire made a post on X, alleging that the reason why there were no arrests made was because <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45828121/elon-musks-bombshell-about-donald-trump-in-epstein-docs-heres-the-truth-behind-the-claim">Trump was on the Epstein list</a>. Musk, however, did not provide any evidence to support the claim.
It's worth noting that he later retracted the statement and deleted the post from X and the pair had<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45807968/trump-signals-truce-with-elon-musk-after-online-feud-its-going-very-well-never-done-better"> reached a truce</a>. However, the billionaire recently vowed to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46186733/elon-musk-staging-a-political-comeback-tesla-ceo-sparks-america-party-buzz-as-he-slams-trumps-insane-spending-bill">found a political party</a> as the Big, Beautiful Bill was passed by the Senate and signed into law on the Fourth of July.
While Musk says that the tax cuts would add trillions to the U.S. debt deficit, it's worth noting that the Bill axes the $7,500 EV credit on all new electric vehicles, which could have a significant impact on Tesla's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46189042/elon-musk-led-teslas-european-woes-worsen-with-sales-down-over-60-in-sweden-and-denmark">already dwindling sales</a>.&nbsp;
Trump had, in turn, said that Musk's companies were on the receiving end of many government subsidies and that without them, the billionaire would have to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46216023/after-trump-warns-elon-musk-to-close-up-shop-china-rallies-behind-worlds-richest-man-theres-no-need-to-keep-putting-up-with-it">"close up shop"</a> and move back to South Africa. 
However, Musk's decision to found the America Party has invited <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46266957/trump-calls-america-party-a-train-wreck-blasts-elon-musk-for-going-completely-off-the-rails-president-says-system-not-designed-for-a-third-player">criticism from both Trump</a>, who called the move a "train wreck," as well as former DOGE advisor James Fishback, who believes Musk's commitment to Tesla <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46268694/elon-musks-america-party-plans-conflict-with-his-full-time-responsibilities-as-tesla-ceo-says-former-doge-advisor">could be under question</a>.

Elon Musk Reignites Epstein Client List Debate, Escalating Feud With Trump

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock plummeted nearly 7% in Monday pre-market trading in response to CEO Elon Musk&#8217;s re-entry into the political landscape amid his ongoing dispute with President Donald Trump over the contentious &#8220;Big, Beautiful Bill.&#8221;
What Happened: The decline follows Musk&#8217;s announcement of the formation of a new political party, in response to the Senate&#8217;s approval of the &#8220;Big, Beautiful Bill.&#8221; This bill has eliminated the $7500 EV credit and rendered the Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) credits, a significant revenue source for Tesla, effectively obsolete.
Over the weekend, Musk announced that the party would be named the "America Party" and might concentrate on "just 2 or 3 Senate seats and 8 to 10 House districts." He argued that this would be sufficient to hold the deciding vote on divisive legislation, helping ensure such laws reflect the true will of the people.
However, Elon Musk denied filing for the registration of the political party the Federal Election Commission. 
Trump criticized Musk&#8217;s move as &#8220;a train wreck&#8221; on Truth Social, questioning the necessity for a third political party in the U.S.

Why It Matters: This development comes on the heels of Musk&#8217;s decision to establish a political party, which has raised concerns among investors. Former DOGE advisor and Tesla investor, James Fishback, expressed that this move <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46268694/elon-musks-america-party-plans-conflict-with-his-full-time-responsibilities-as-tesla-ceo-says-former-doge-advisor">undermines </a>investor confidence in the EV giant. His investment company Azoria Partners also postponed the launch of Tesla Convexity ETF on this note.
Musk stepped away from DOGE in May, a move that benefited Tesla's stock. However, his renewed involvement in politics is now unsettling investors.

While some see it as a step in the wrong direction, others believe it&#8217;s too early to predict the impact on Tesla&#8217;s brand in the short term.
"Very simply Musk diving deeper into politics and now trying to take on the Beltway establishment is exactly the opposite direction that Tesla investors/shareholders want him to take during this crucial period for the Tesla story," stated Dan Ives, the lead technology analyst at Wedbush.

Tesla Stock Falls Over 6% In Monday Pre-Market: What's Going On?

Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison, a leading Indonesian <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/telecommunications" rel="noreferrer noopener">digital telecom provider</a>, has adopted Nokia Corp.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOK#NYSE">NOK</a>) Energy Efficiency solution from its Autonomous Networks portfolio to cut energy use and lower CO₂ emissions across its national radio access network (RAN).
Leveraging AI and machine learning to analyze real-time traffic, the solution allows Indosat to automatically power down idle or underutilized radio equipment during <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nokia.com/newsroom/indosat-ooredoo-hutchison-and-nokia-partner-to-reduce-energy-demand-and-support-ai-powered-sustainable-operations/" rel="noreferrer noopener">low-demand periods</a>.
Intelligent thermal management also reduces cooling-related energy consumption.

Delivered via a SaaS model, the solution avoids enormous upfront costs and removes the need for on-site maintenance, making it a greener and more efficient alternative, the company said in a press release.
The multi-vendor, AI-powered platform helps reduce both energy costs and environmental impact without compromising network performance or customer service.
The deployment follows a successful pilot in which Nokia&#8217;s solution effectively cut live network energy use. Nokia has expanded the rollout across its entire RAN footprint in Sumatra, Kalimantan, Central, and East Java.
Nokia stock surged over 16% year-to-date, topping the NYSE Composite&#8217;s close of 9%, backed by licensing deals and positive performance in its Network Infrastructure, Cloud, and Network Services divisions. The acquisition of&nbsp;Infinera&nbsp;and strategic partnerships also added to investor confidence.&nbsp;The stock gained over 33% in the last 12 months versus the index&#8217;s close to 15%.
Ten analysts have set an <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NOK/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">average price target</a> of $5.44 for Nokia. Craig-Hallum gave the highest target of $7 on January 6, 2025. The three most recent ratings assigned an average target of $6.55, suggesting a potential upside of 27.18% from Nokia&#8217;s current price.
Price Action: NOK stock is trading lower by 0.77% to $5.15 premarket at last check Monday.

Molina Healthcare, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MOH#NYSE">MOH</a>) today announced preliminary financial results for the second quarter of 2025 and updated its full year 2025 adjusted earnings per share guidance. The Company's announcement of preliminary results was driven by recent market dynamics and off-cycle disclosures from others in the managed health care sector.
The Company now expects its second quarter 2025 adjusted earnings to be approximately $5.50 per share(1), which is modestly below its prior expectations. This preliminary result reflects medical cost pressures in all three lines of business. The Company expects these medical cost pressures to continue into the second half of the year. As a result, the Company now expects its full year 2025 adjusted earnings to be in the range of $21.50 to $22.50 per share(1), reflecting a consolidated pre-tax margin of just under 4%, the low-end of its long-term guidance range.

Capgemini SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CGEMY#OTC">CGEMY</a>) announced Monday that it will acquire WNS Holdings Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WNS#NYSE">WNS</a>) in a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/g46267656/capgemini-to-acquire-wns-to-create-a-global-leader-in-agentic-ai-powered-intelligent-operations" rel="noreferrer noopener">$3.3 billion all-cash deal</a> to create a global leader in Agentic AI-powered Intelligent Operations.
The transaction, which offers $76.50 per WNS share, reflects a 17% premium over WNS&#8217; most recent closing price and has received unanimous approval from both companies&#8217; boards. Capgemini expects the deal to close by year-end, pending shareholder and court approvals.
The acquisition gives Capgemini access to WNS&#8217;s high-margin digital business process services and strengthens its position in the U.S. market. The combination is designed to capitalize on a growing enterprise shift toward AI-driven operational models.

Aiman Ezzat, CEO of Capgemini, said the combination is designed to capture the surge in enterprise demand for Agentic AI, which is transforming how companies manage operations from end to end. He described the merger as a step toward building a new benchmark for Intelligent Operations that leverages automation, data, and domain expertise to deliver superior results at scale.
Keshav R. Murugesh, CEO of WNS, echoed the enthusiasm, calling the deal a strategic leap toward embedding AI at the core of business models. He noted that the combined portfolio would expand Capgemini&#8217;s footprint across industries and enhance its ability to support organizations as they shift from automation to autonomy in operational strategy.
WNS <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/b44973624/wns-announces-fiscal-2025-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-earnings-provides-guidance-for-fiscal-2026" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> $1.27 billion in revenue for fiscal 2025 and holds long-term contracts with companies like United Airlines and Aviva.
Capgemini expects the deal to increase normalized EPS by 4% in 2026 and 7% by 2027, post-synergies. Estimated annual revenue synergies range between 100 million euros (~$108 million) and 140 million euros (~$151.2 million), with cost savings projected up to 70 million euros (~$75.6 million).
Capgemini is funding the transaction with a 4 billion euros bridge loan, partially backed by internal cash and future debt issuance. The company plans to integrate WNS into its Global Business Services unit, citing a strong cultural fit and complementary capabilities across AI, platforms, and consulting.

Capgemini Doubles Down On Agentic AI With $3.3 Billion WNS Acquisition

<a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4462893-1&amp;h=1300208705&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fcorporate.dow.com%2Fen-us%2F&amp;a=Dow">Dow</a>&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DOW#NYSE">DOW</a>) announced today that, as a follow-up to the European asset actions first announced in April 2025, its Board of Directors has approved the shutdown of three upstream assets in Europe, in addition to certain corporate and other assets across the Company's global asset footprint:
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Packaging &amp; Specialty Plastics: Ethylene cracker in Böhlen, Germany; shutdown expected in 4Q27</li>
<li>Industrial Intermediates &amp; Infrastructure: Chlor-alkali &amp; vinyl (CAV) assets in Schkopau, Germany; shutdown expected in 4Q27</li>
<li>Performance Materials &amp; Coatings: Basics siloxanes plant in Barry, U.K.; shutdown expected mid-year 2026</li>
</ul>
The shutdown of upstream assets in Europe will right-size regional capacity, reduce merchant sale exposure, and remove higher-cost, energy-intensive portions of Dow's portfolio in the region. This will improve our ability to supply profitable derivative demand and optimize margins.
"Our industry in Europe continues to face difficult market dynamics, as well as an ongoing challenging cost and demand landscape," said <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4462893-1&amp;h=1264473883&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D4365669-1%26h%3D928999966%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fcorporate.dow.com%252Fen-us%252Fabout%252Fcompany%252Fleadership%252Fjim-fitterling.html%26a%3DJim%2BFitterling%23xd_co_f%3DNWU5MTc3MGItMzc0Ni00OGE5LTk4YzAtOTk2NGNjMmJhYjNl%7E&amp;a=Jim%C2%A0Fitterling">Jim&nbsp;Fitterling</a>, Dow chair and CEO. "Over the past decade, we have demonstrated Dow's commitment to operating with a best-owner mindset by taking proactive actions across higher-cost or non-strategic assets. Looking ahead, we remain committed to realizing the value of our incremental growth investments and enhancing profitability and cash flow through more than $6&nbsp;billion in near-term cash support."
In April 2025, the Company <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4462893-1&amp;h=1608642756&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fs23.q4cdn.com%2F981382065%2Ffiles%2Fdoc_financials%2F2025%2Fq1%2FDow-1Q25-Earnings-News-Release.pdf&amp;a=announced">announced</a>&nbsp;it had identified three assets in Europe for action across all of its operating segments. On June 30, 2025, Dow's Board of Directors approved restructuring actions to rationalize the Company's global asset footprint, including these three assets as part of its European review, and certain corporate and other assets.
Dow's actions to shut down these assets will result in an Operating EBITDA uplift beginning in 2026, ramping to 50% of the approximate $200&nbsp;million target by year-end 2027 with full delivery by 2029, with a cash outlay of approximately $500&nbsp;million over four years.
As a result of these actions, the Company will record charges ranging from $630&nbsp;million to $790&nbsp;million, for both non-cash items—such as asset write-downs and write-offs—and cash items, such as exit and disposal of assets, as well as severance and related benefit costs.
The shutdown of the assets is expected to begin in mid-2026 and is estimated to be complete by the end of 2027, with potential decommissioning and demolition to continue into 2029 as needed.
Approximately 800 Dow roles will be impacted as a result of these actions. These roles are in addition to the $1&nbsp;billion cost savings actions <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4462893-1&amp;h=4038991573&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fcorporate.dow.com%2Fen-us%2Fnews%2Fpress-releases%2Fdow-announces-targeted-actions-to-deliver--1b-in-cost-savings.html&amp;a=announced+in+January">announced in January</a>&nbsp;that included a workforce reduction of approximately 1,500 Dow roles globally.

As President Donald Trump's Big Beautiful Bill is officially signed into law, the bill scraps the $7,500 Federal EV credit on all purchases of new electric vehicles in the U.S.
What Happened: As the incentives are axed, EVs across the board are set to become dearer after September 30, 2025, when the incentives end. On Saturday, Business Insider compiled <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/all-the-evs-set-to-lose-the-federal-tax-credit-2025-7">a</a> list of vehicles set for a price hike from automakers like General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), Stellantis (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), Ford Motor Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).
As for the list of vehicles from GM, it includes EVs from GM like the Chevrolet Blazer, Equinox and Silverado, as well as luxury-focused EVs like the Cadillac Lyriq, Optiq and Vistiq.
Detroit-based automaker Ford's F-150 Lightning pickup truck will get costlier. 
Elon Musk's Tesla vehicles, like Model Y, Model X, the Cybertruck and the Model 3, are also going to cost more.
Why It Matters: The news comes as the new laws axe the federal EV credit, but also scrap the proposed $250 fee annual fee on all EVs. The law is another push in Trump's anti-EV stance.
The bill has caused a considerable stir, with Musk locking horns with Trump over the bill once again and vowing to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46267705/elon-musk-says-america-first-filing-false-and-has-been-reported-to-the-election-commission">found a new political party</a> called the America Party.

As Trump's 'Big, Beautiful Bill' Is Signed Into Law, These EVs From Tesla, GM And Ford Will Become More Expensive: Report

Apogee Therapeutics, Inc., (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APGE#NASDAQ">APGE</a>), a clinical-stage biotechnology company advancing optimized, novel biologics with potential for differentiated efficacy and dosing in the largest inflammatory and immunology (I&amp;I) markets, today announced positive 16-week data from Part A of the Phase 2 APEX clinical trial of APG777, a potential best-in-class anti-IL-13 antibody, in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).
"With two out of every three patients treated with APG777 achieving EASI-75 response at Week 16 in the Phase 2 APEX Part A trial, APG777 demonstrated the highest EASI-75 response rate both on a topline and placebo-adjusted basis for any biologic in a global study to date, reinforcing its potential best-in-class profile for patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis," said Michael Henderson, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Apogee. "APG777 has the potential to set a new standard of care by offering improved clinical responses with transformational quarterly or better maintenance dosing — benefitting patients, providers, and payers. Today's results bring us closer to that vision, and we believe further de-risks APG777's path to approval. In addition, I am excited for our two upcoming readouts to potentially even further improve on efficacy results — the accelerated APEX Part B testing higher exposures that is now expected to readout mid-2026, and the ongoing APG279 (IL-13 + OX40L) head-to-head trial against DUPIXENT expected to readout in the second half of 2026."
"Today's results from APEX Part A demonstrate strong efficacy results across all key endpoints," said Carl Dambkowski, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Apogee. "In addition to these potentially best-in-class results, increased response rates were observed in patients with higher exposures, supporting our exposure-response hypothesis which we continue to further test in APEX Part B. Combined with a favorable safety profile, these findings reinforce APG777's potential to deliver meaningful and durable benefit to patients while significantly reducing dosing frequency compared with existing agents. On behalf of the entire Apogee team, I'd like to extend our gratitude to the patients and physicians for their support in the successful execution of this important trial."&nbsp;
APEX Phase 2 Part A Key 16-Week Results
The Phase 2 APEX clinical trial is a randomized, placebo-controlled study evaluating APG777 in patients with moderate-to-severe AD. Part A of the trial enrolled 123 adult patients who were randomized 2:1 to APG777 versus placebo and received an induction regimen dosing of 720mg at Weeks 0 and 2, followed by 360mg at Weeks 4 and 12. Patients benefiting from treatment continued maintenance dosing, evaluating 3- or 6-month dosing of APG777. The primary endpoint of Part A is mean percentage change in Eczema Area Severity Index (EASI) score from baseline at Week 16. Secondary endpoints include EASI-75, EASI-90, Validated Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) 0/1 and Itch Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at Week 16.
Initial 16-week findings from APEX Part A include efficacy results, which compare favorably versus standard of care across endpoints as well as rapid onset of itch relief and lesion reduction, and a favorable safety profile consistent with its class:
<ul>
<li>The trial met its primary endpoint, with APG777 showing significantly greater least squares mean percent change from baseline at Week 16 with an EASI reduction of 71.0% compared to placebo of 33.8% (p &lt; 0.001). &nbsp;</li>
<li>Highest absolute and placebo-adjusted EASI-75 of any biologic with 66.9% of participants treated with APG777 achieving EASI-75 compared to 24.6% on placebo (p &lt; 0.001) 
<ul>
<li>Pre-specified sensitivity analysis showed consistent results in both moderate and severe patients</li>
<li>Additionally, an exposure-response relationship was observed, with patients in the two highest quartiles of exposures achieving the highest EASI-75 response at Week 16, 83.3% for quartile three and 89.5% for quartile four
<ul>
<li>APEX Part B is testing a higher dose of APG777, which is projected to achieve average exposures in line with the highest quartile of exposures from Part A</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Additional key secondaries were in line with standard of care, including vIGA 0/1 and EASI-90
<ul>
<li>vIGA 0/1 of 34.9% compared to placebo of 17.3% (p &lt; 0.05)</li>
<li>EASI-90 of 33.9% compared to placebo of 14.7% (p &lt; 0.05)</li>
<li>Patients in the highest quartile of exposures achieved the highest response, 63.2% vIGA 0/1 and 63.2% EASI-90 at Week 16</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Treatment of patients with APG777 led to rapid onset of itch relief and achieved statistically significant reduction by Week 1
<ul>
<li>50.7% reduction of Itch NRS from baseline compared to 23.2% (p &lt; 0.01)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>APG777 was well tolerated with a safety profile consistent with other agents in the class
<ul>
<li>Serious treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were rare for APG777-exposed patients (1.2% vs. 2.4% in placebo)</li>
<li>Discontinuation rate due to AEs was low for APG777-exposed patients (2.4%)</li>
<li>The most common TEAEs (occurring in ≥5% of patients in either treatment group) were non-infective conjunctivitis, upper respiratory tract infection, and nasopharyngitis, the latter two numerically lower in APG777 treated patients</li>
<li>There were 0 injection site reactions in the APG777 group</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

Some of the world's biggest cryptocurrency exchanges have started shifting their business on-chain, blending CEX stability with features only DEX users typically have access to.
A hybrid model is emerging that delivers blockchain benefits through a familiar TradFi UI: User-friendly in the front, blockchain-powered in the back. 
Will it be enough to de-risk DeFi for a mainstream finance audience?
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Leaving the conventional brokerage model&nbsp;behind</h1>
Coinbase, Bybit, and Binance have all announced changes that weave Web3 protocols into their Web2 platforms.
Why would they want to risk venturing on-chain? Decentralized finance protocols can be notoriously difficult for end users, and there are long-standing concerns about security and regulatory oversight in this space.
The truth is that&nbsp;DeFi is growing too quickly to ignore, worth an estimated $20 billion last year and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/decentralized-finance-market-report" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">forecast to reach $230 billion by 2030</a> — an annual CAGR of 50%.
<a href="https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/cryptocurrency-exchange-platform-market-report" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Double-digit CAGR</a>&nbsp;is in the cards for CEXs too. But DeFi has almost double the momentum. They don't want to be left behind.
And that's a real risk. Centralized exchanges are basically modelled on conventional brokerages. They operate in ways that are familiar to everyday retail traders, but their technical infrastructure makes it hard to penetrate the on-chain space.
Recent announcements suggest the big CEXs are moving on from being matching platforms and evolving into deeply-integrated trading networks that fuse on-chain and off-chain benefits:
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Coinbase Offers DEX Access Through Its&nbsp;CEX</h2>
On June 12, 2025, Coinbase announced it was integrating DEXs on its proprietary Base blockchain with its centralized exchange business, with plans in the pipeline to add DEXs from other blockchains.
For end users, the move opens up access to thousands of altcoins but without Ethereum's (ETH) gas fees, though Coinbase's trading fee structure still comes into play.
For big Base-built DEXs like&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/AerodromeFi/status/1933246313682067730?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1933246313682067730%7Ctwgr%5E79e00aeb61d26ced5a04be1756a3ce082204c6b5%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.techopedia.com%2Fcentralized-crypto-exD181hanges-move-onchain" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Aerodrome</a>, having a direct link to the mainstream Coinbase exchange has been a major boost. Its AERO token&nbsp;<a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/aerodrome-finance/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">has spiked</a>&nbsp;since the announcement.
It's not the first time Coinbase has tried to leverage its Web2 footprint on-chain. The exchange's wrapped token for Bitcoin, cbBTC, was bootstrapped using Coinbase as the primary rail to attract liquidity and users.
With direct access to Base's lending markets, cbBTC holders can now borrow USDC using Bitcoin (BTC) as collateral, without leaving the Coinbase app.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Binance Aims for Wallet&nbsp;Share</h2>
In May, Binance launched its&nbsp;<a href="https://www.binance.com/en/square/post/24440234006465" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Alpha campaign</a>, a series of trading contests that reward users with "Alpha Points" that can be used to buy selected digital assets, which users receive later in the form of airdrops. It's meant to encourage support for new projects and build grassroots engagement.
The approach has many steps, but Binance appears to have its eye on growing wallet use and participation in its on-chain ecosystem. To use Alpha points, they have to be traded through Binance's keyless Binance Wallet. This could be a way to funnel more users into Binance's proprietary DeFi services via the BNB blockchain.
It seems to be working. PancakeSwap is the tool&nbsp;<a href="https://www.binance.com/en/support/announcement/detail/c6499e95c15e408ca44ca5f6db975d4d" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">enabling Alpha token trades</a>, and its&nbsp;<a href="https://defillama.com/dexs/pancakeswap" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">volumes have surged</a>&nbsp;since Alpha's May launch.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bybit Launches a Hybrid&nbsp;Exchange</h2>
On June 15, 2025, Bybit&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/byreal_io/status/1934085435212308789?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1934085435212308789%7Ctwgr%5E79e00aeb61d26ced5a04be1756a3ce082204c6b5%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.techopedia.com%2Fcentralized-crypto-exD181hanges-move-onchain" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">announced</a>&nbsp;the launch of Byreal, a new Solana DEX that promises a hybrid exchange model that leverages centralized liquidity sources with decentralized execution. The combination should enable Byreal to route trades more profitably.
Positioned as an extension of Bybit rather than a new product, Byreal's design will see it route transactions via mechanisms called Concentrated Liquidity (CLMM) and Request for Quote (RFQ).
The idea is to unify liquidity sources and increase protection against MEV tactics by miners and validators. Execution is provided by market makers or liquidity providers, depending on the coin and conditions attached to the trade.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">The take&nbsp;away</h1>
Three centralized exchanges, three on-chain strategies. Combined, they're loudly signalling that the on-chain economy has moved to a new phase of maturity. DeFi is demonstrating stability and security — two baseline requirements for regulated CEXs to integrate blockchain infrastructure into their technology stacks.
While the convergence gives big-name exchanges an on-chain presence, it also marks the start of a new model. We may be witnessing the birth of a crypto trading paradigm.

DEXs Are Quietly Turning Into CEXs. Here's What That Means For Traders

A former top executive at the Social Security Administration quietly floated an idea to park part of the program's $2.7 trillion trust fund in a short-term Treasury note that would automatically convert into an S&amp;P 500 index basket at maturity, but the proposal never really saw the light of day.
What Happened: Scott Coulter, who served as SSA chief information officer until spring, argued the hybrid debt-equity instrument could buy the program time by earning higher market returns than traditional special-issue bonds, according to an internal summary <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/social-security-trust-insolvency-investments-f73c127c?gaa_at=eafs&amp;gaa_n=ASWzDAhXVvEEVlsG9pXe58j7ruDK_nXJIK0EwtgxHbSxU1FScgMuB4fhSqur-A8zIrQ%3D&amp;gaa_ts=686b7c7c&amp;gaa_sig=jerdUetjrn-XsqQ3RBbOOYT2KEmTFuBzqoSwVN0N0OMHcnbIIMtvTLN0qcW9VJDIWCudLqaYnUs7pxnxd5drqQ%3D%3D">seen</a> by The Wall Street Journal.
Coulter drafted the plan while acting as SSA's liaison to the Trump-backed Department of Government Efficiency. He proposed shifting only a slice of assets to limit risk, saying the note would give trustees an upside without violating the law's daily investment mandate. The trust fund currently invests exclusively in non-marketable Treasury securities.

Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano, who was confirmed for his role in May this year, shelved the idea. The former Fiserv chief told lawmakers that he&#8217;s more focused on fixing customer service first and integrating artificial intelligence tools. 
In a separate statement, Bisignano said <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/management/25/07/46260419/social-security-trust-fund-remains-a-top-priority-for-the-trump-administration-assures-commissioner-bisignano-experts-arent-so-sure">safeguarding the fund</a> "remains a top priority for the Trump administration."
Why It Matters: The non-partisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget warns that President Donald Trump's pending "One Big Beautiful Bill" would speed the depletion of the retirement reserve to 2032 by trimming taxes on benefits. Eliminating benefit taxes outright would <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43831371/eliminating-social-security-income-taxes-would-cost-1-5-trillion-and-deplete-the-trust-fund-by-2032-who-wins-and-who-loses">drain $1.5 trillion more</a>, show estimates.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has floated a broader <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSma9suyp24">fix</a> that involves pairing the program with a new sovereign wealth fund seeded by "baby bonds" for newborns. Any equity move, however, would need congressional approval and fresh borrowing to redeem existing bonds, an expensive step at today's rates, former trustee Charles Blahous noted while speaking to WSJ.
