Unpacking the Latest Options Trading Trends in Carnival

Celsius Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CELH#NASDAQ">CELH</a>) shareholder and co-chair William H. Milmoe sold over $76 million worth of the company&#8217;s stock. 
The divestiture was announced Monday afternoon ahead of the energy drink company&#8217;s earnings report Tuesday morning.
According to regulatory filings, Milmoe offloaded shares amounting to over $76 million at an average price of $59.66 per share. 
This information was revealed in the latest Form 4 filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The transactions were carried out over three days, from May 2 to May 6. Milmoe sold exactly 214,287 shares of common stock each day.

CD Financial LLC, where Milmoe serves as the manager, delivered the shares upon the exercise of call options sold to unaffiliated third-party purchasers last year. 
Milmoe still indirectly retains a substantial stake in Celsius through his role in CD Financial LLC and as a trustee of the Carl DeSantis Revocable Trust.
It&#8217;s unclear why Milmoe sold the stock; the transaction has been reported in compliance with SEC regulations. Celsius Holdings has not made any official statements regarding the transactions.
Investors often view insider transactions as an indicator of the executives&#8217; confidence in the company&#8217;s future prospects. The impact of this insider sale on investor sentiment towards Celsius Holdings remains to be seen.

Insider Sells Nearly $76 Million In Stock At This Energy Drink Company: What's Going On With Celsius Holdings?

Tuesday,&nbsp;Eledon Pharmaceuticals&nbsp;Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ELDN#NASDAQ">ELDN</a>) announced that the first participant in an investigator-led clinical trial has received an islet cell transplant and is being treated with tegoprubart&nbsp;for the prevention of&nbsp;pancreatic islet cell transplant rejection in&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/05/g38664474/eledon-announces-clinical-progress-with-tegoprubart-in-the-prevention-of-transplant-rejection" rel="noreferrer noopener">type 1 diabetes patients</a>.
The company also reported updated data from its ongoing Phase 1b trial as of April 2024&nbsp;from 13 participants, demonstrating&nbsp;that tegoprubart is generally safe and well-tolerated and&nbsp;supports tegoprubart&#8217;s&nbsp;potential to protect organ function in patients undergoing kidney transplantation.
Aggregate mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)&nbsp;–&nbsp;a measure of kidney function&nbsp;–&nbsp;measured above 60 mL/min/1.73m2 at all reported time points after day 30.
Two subjects completed 12 months&nbsp;on&nbsp;therapy post-transplant&nbsp;and&nbsp;both demonstrated mean eGFRs above 90 mL/min/1.73m2 at one year.
To date, three subjects discontinued the study because of hair loss and fatigue, viral infection, and rejection, respectively.&nbsp;
There have been no cases of graft loss or death.&nbsp;
Eledon is currently conducting a Phase 1b trial, the Phase 2 BESTOW trial, and a Long-Term Safety and Efficacy extension study to evaluate&nbsp;tegoprubart&nbsp;for&nbsp;the prevention of&nbsp;organ rejection in kidney transplant patients.
Concurrently, Eledon Pharmaceuticals announced a private placement of approximately $50 million, offering 13.1 million shares at&nbsp;$2.37&nbsp;per share and pre-funded warrants at $2.369 per underlying share, which are exercisable to&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/05/g38664219/eledon-pharmaceuticals-announces-oversubscribed-50-million-private-placement" rel="noreferrer noopener">purchase 7.99 million shares</a>.
HC Wainwright suggests that islet cell transplantation could be a promising way to reverse type 1 diabetes by restoring metabolic control without relying on insulin injections. The analyst highlights tegopruibart&#8217;s potential to decrease or replace intensive anti-rejection drugs without causing side effects.&nbsp;
HC Wainwright reiterates the Buy rating, and with&nbsp;increased confidence in&nbsp;tegoprubart&#8217;s&nbsp;probability of advancement into a pivotal study, it has raised the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ELDN/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from $13 to $16</a>.
The analyst continues to look for the potential signing of a licensing collaboration agreement, including an upfront payment worth up to&nbsp;$100 million, for further development and commercialization of&nbsp;tegoprubart&nbsp;around the 2025 timeframe as a future catalyst.
Price Action:&nbsp;ELDN shares&nbsp;are&nbsp;down 9.63% at $2.21&nbsp;at last check&nbsp;Tuesday.

Rubicon Technologies Shares Dip After Fleet Technology Business Sale

Israeli forces have taken control of the Rafah crossing, the principal gateway between Gaza and Egypt, on the day after Hamas accepted what was described by Israeli officials as a softened version <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/macro-notification/24/05/38652249/israel-terms-gaza-ceasefire-accepted-by-hamas-as-softened-us-opposes-netanyahus-operat">of their ceasefire terms.</a>
The terms failed to meet the demands of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, prompting Israeli tanks to advance into the southern Gaza Strip early Tuesday.
An Israeli military spokesperson, speaking to <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog-may-7-2024/">The Times of Israel</a>, described the action as a "limited operation" with a clear objective to compel Hamas into accepting a more comprehensive agreement that aligns closer with Israeli security demands.
Rafah Operations Hinder Negotiation Process, Hamas Says: In response to the Israeli military&#8217;s advancements, Hamas spokesman Osama Hamdan issued a stern warning about the potential collapse of the ceasefire agreement.
Hamdan&#8217;s statement conveyed a sense of urgency and a call to action, particularly directed at the U.S. and its role in moderating the conflict: "The ball now is in Netanyahu's court. The ball is also in the court of the U.S. administration… to prove and establish their sincerity by pressuring Netanyahu's government."
US Concerned On Israeli Operation In Rafah: The White House, through national security spokesperson John Kirby, expressed optimism that the remaining disagreements between Israel and Hamas could be bridged to achieve a ceasefire-for-hostages agreement.
The White House has also stated that the crossings in Gaza, which have been closed, need to be reopened as early as Wednesday.
Furthermore, the Biden administration&#8217;s decision to delay specific arms shipments to Israel appears to be a tactical move to signal discontent with the current trajectory of Israeli military actions. As reported by Reuters, the delayed shipments, which have been on hold for at least two weeks, include Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>)-made Joint Direct Attack Munitions, which transform unguided bombs into precision-guided munitions, and Small Diameter Bombs.
This withholding of military support is a critical lever in U.S.-Israel relations, reflecting broader concerns about the potential implications of ongoing hostilities.
UN Secretary-General's Condemnation: UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres strongly condemned the Israeli assault on Rafah, describing it as a &#8220;strategic mistake&#8221; and a &#8220;political calamity&#8221; that could lead to a &#8220;humanitarian nightmare.&#8221; Guterres appealed to international influencers to intervene and help avert further escalation and tragedy.
Market Reactions: Israeli stocks rose Tuesday, with the iShares MSCI Israel ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EIS#NYSE">EIS</a>) up 1% shortly before New York market close. Oil prices held broadly flat for the day. The United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>), which tracks the performance of the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) light crude, inched 0.2% higher.

Israeli Forces Seize Control At Rafah Crossing As Ceasefire Negotiations Falter: US Delays Military Shipments To Israel

Mizuho&nbsp;analyst Dan Dolev reiterated a Buy rating on&nbsp;Robinhood Markets, Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) with a price target of $21.
HOOD announced that it had received a Wells Notice&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/05/38647248/sec-nudges-robinhood-over-crypto-operations" rel="noreferrer noopener">from the SEC</a>&nbsp;on May 4 stating that the SEC had made a preliminary determination to recommend an enforcement action against Robinhood Crypto alleging violations of Sections 15(a) and 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the analyst flagged.
Also&nbsp;Read:&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/05/38670552/robinhoods-expected-move-to-profitability-in-2024-a-positive-sign-ahead-of-q1-earni" rel="noreferrer noopener">Robinhood&#8217;s Expected Move To Profitability In 2024 &#8216;A Positive Sign&#8217; Ahead Of Q1 Earnings, Analyst Says</a>
The concerns regarding the notice are likely overblown as it is unlikely entirely new news, as investigative subpoenas from the SEC were previously disclosed, and crypto rebates represented 7% of fiscal 2023 revenues and 15% of AUC, as per the analyst. 
Also,&nbsp;Coinbase Global, Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>), where crypto overall exposure is 100%, is up nearly 3x since receiving a Wells Notice in March 2023.
Dolev valued HOOD on 6x fiscal 2025 revenues. HOOD currently trades at ~5x EV /&nbsp;fiscal&nbsp;2025 revenues, which&nbsp;is in line&nbsp;with the FinTech peer group multiple. He noted a premium is appropriate given the strong execution exhibited so far in fiscal 2024.&nbsp;
Robinhood Markets stock gained 104% in the last 12 months.&nbsp;Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;ARK Next&nbsp;Generation Internet ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKW#NYSE">ARKW</a>) and&nbsp;ARK Fintech&nbsp;Innovation ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKF#NYSE">ARKF</a>).
Price Action: HOOD shares traded higher by 1.27% at $18.01 at the last check Tuesday.

CVS Health Options Trading: A Deep Dive into Market Sentiment

In a move that could lower its dependence on external chip manufacturers like NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is reportedly developing its own chips.
According to a <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/apple-is-developing-ai-chips-for-data-centers-seeking-edge-in-arms-race-0bedd2b2">report</a> from the Wall Street Journal, these chips are designed to run artificial intelligence (AI) software within data centers.
What Happened: Apple has been working on a project, termed ACDC (Apple Chips in Data Center), for several years, WSJ reports. The tech giant has been partnering with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. for the chip&#8217;s design and production, but the success of these efforts is still uncertain.
The Wall Street Journal suggests that Apple&#8217;s server chip will likely concentrate on AI inference rather than training AI models, an area that experts believe NVIDIA will continue to dominate. AI inference is the process whereas trained machine learning models draw conclusions from new data.

Apple&#8217;s initiative is similar to other tech giants like Google&#8217;s parent company Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), which is also developing its own AI inference server chips to reduce reliance on chip designers. However, experts note that Apple is still trailing rivals such as Microsoft in the AI technology race.
Apple CEO Tim Cook stated in February that the company was &#8220;investing significantly&#8221; in AI technology and would make an AI-related announcement later this year. The announcement is anticipated at the Worldwide Developers Conference in June.
Why It Matters: Apple&#8217;s move to develop in-house AI chips is part of a broader trend among tech companies to reduce their dependence on external chip manufacturers. According to a<a href="https://www.theverge.com/2024/5/6/24150742/apples-project-acdc-is-building-ai-chips-for-data-centers"> report </a>by The Verge, companies like Google, Meta, Microsoft, and OpenAI are also working on custom server hardware to power AI models. 
This shift towards in-house development could potentially disrupt the traditional chip manufacturing industry, particularly affecting companies like NVIDIA that have a significant market share. But, because Apple's new chips are likely to focus on areas outside of NVIDIA's expertise, it's probable that there will be space for both of the tech giants in the AI race.

Apple's Secret Project And Bold Move Towards In-House AI Chips: Could This Be A Threat To NVIDIA?

Activist groups in Germany are targeting electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) as it works to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/38001324/german-chancellor-olaf-scholz-calls-arson-attack-on-teslas-giga-berlin-a-terrorist-act-wants-ev-gian">expand its Giga Berlin factory.</a>
What Happened: The Austin, Texas-based car company faces upcoming<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37573105/elon-musk-declares-tesla-is-hardcore-ahead-of-giga-berlins-production-restart"> protests at Giga Berlin </a>and is taking preventative measures, including a four-day closure, according to German business newspaper <a href="https://www.handelsblatt.com/unternehmen/industrie/elektromobilitaet-tesla-legt-produktion-in-gruenheide-fuer-vier-tage-still/100037131.html">Handelsblatt</a>. 
The shutdown comes as a result of announced multi-day protests against Tesla.
As a result, Tesla employees are being told to work from home. An email sent to employees on Monday shared the company's decision, according to the report.
Employees in vehicle production will see Friday a bridge day. Production is ending with the late shift on Wednesday and will begin again with the night shift on Sunday.
"No access to the site or the factory is possible without the explicit instructions and approval of your manager," an email obtained by Handelsblatt reads. &nbsp;
Tesla also said there would be no buses or trains running to the gigafactory in Germany from Thursday through Sunday.
The company said the move was done as "the corresponding recommendation from the responsible authorities."

Why It's Important: Tesla influencers dispute the accuracy of the four-day closure report.
Tesla delivery vehicle tracker Troy Teslike <a href="https://twitter.com/TroyTeslike/status/1787902806420021732">said </a>that Thursday is a public holiday in Germany (Ascension Day) and the factory is typically open Monday through Friday.
"This production pause is only for 1 day (Friday)," Teslike said. "It won't affect deliveries because Model Y inventory in Europe is at an all-time high due to limited demand."
Tesla influencer Sawyer Merritt <a href="https://twitter.com/SawyerMerritt/status/1787898939489804371">called </a>an article from Reuters citing the four-day work pause as misleading.
"This headline is a little misleading. Giga Berlin usually produces cars Monday-Friday. This Thursday is a Holiday, so really it's just a one-day shutdown," Merritt tweeted.
News of the work pause and the work-from-home orders come as Tesla CEO Elon Musk has famously been an outspoken critic of employees working from home.
The CEO has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/05/32437964/elon-musk-paints-remote-work-as-morally-wrong-says-laptop-classes-are-living-in-la-la-land">called work from home</a> "morally wrong" and has made it mandatory for Tesla and social media platform X that employees work in office except in limited scenarios.
While the work stoppage could end up being only one day due to the holiday, it bears watching as an arson attack led to the plant temporarily shutting down in Germany.
Protestors are expected to convene in front of the factory on Friday. The goal is to raise awareness for the clearing of a forest area by Tesla if it expands the factory. The expansion has faced pushback and the protest could bring more attention to the concerns raised against Tesla's move to grow.

'US to revoke licences for supply of chips to China's Huawei' -Financial Times

Electric vehicle company Lucid Group Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>) reported first-quarter financial results Monday that saw revenue beat and earnings per share miss <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/05/38653616/lucid-q1-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-miss-production-update-and-more">Street consensus estimates.</a>
Analysts size up the results and what's next for the company.
The Lucid Analysts: 
<ul>
<li>Stifel analyst Stephen Gengaro has a Hold rating and $4 price target on Lucid.</li>
<li>Needham analyst Chris Pierce has a Hold rating and no price target on Lucid.</li>
</ul>

Stifel on Lucid: The first quarter report had mixed results and no real surprises for 2024, Gengaro said.
The analyst said guidance for producing 9,000 vehicles in 2024 was reiterated by the company.
"While first-quarter production numbers came in lighter-than-expected, we believe the company's 9,000 vehicle production target for the year is reasonable," Gengaro said.
The analyst highlighted gross losses improving in the quarter.
"Lucid remains laser-focused on aligning production with demand while controlling costs."
Gengaro said the company's financial position should get it through "at least the launch" of the Lucid Gravity SUV. Additional capital could be needed after this key event with high cash burn, the analyst said.
The analyst said that while production is improving for Lucid, the company could still be in the "prove-it-to-me stage."
Needham on Lucid: Consumers and OEM partners are "still in park" as Lucid looks to grow its production, Pierce said.
"We continue to be believers in LCID's best in class technology driving industry leading efficiency, but we also continue to see low absolute delivery numbers, limiting fixed cost absorption driving financial statement losses and driving further capital needs," Pierce said.
The analyst said Lucid is confident that the Lucid Gravity SUV will be well received by consumers.
Pierce cautions that for bears, Lucid could be "a catalyst light story."
"We continue to think investors will take a conservative posture when considering the low penetration of LCID's existing lineup."
The analyst said investors could be underestimating the technology leadership Lucid has, and the deep pockets of the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund allow for patience.
LCID Price Action: Lucid shares are down 14% to $2.65 versus a 52-week trading range of $2.29 to $8.37. Lucid stock is down 66% over the last year.
