Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) shares are trading higher by 1.2% to $81.75 Thursday morning after the Federal Reserve cut interest rates by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40938732/wall-street-ramps-up-interest-rate-cut-bets-after-fed-meeting-the-hard-landing-crow">50 basis points</a>.
Why This Matters: Rate cuts are typically designed to stimulate consumer spending by making credit more affordable, which can boost discretionary spending on items like apparel and footwear. 
Nike's products are consumer discretionary goods, meaning that when consumers have more disposable income (or easier access to credit), they may be more inclined to purchase non-essential items like Nike shoes and sports gear.
With interest rate cuts, Nike as a company also faces lower borrowing costs, improving its overall cost structure. This reduction in financial expenses could increase profitability, making the stock more attractive to investors.

What Else: Nike operates in many markets around the world. A more aggressive stance from the Federal Reserve on rate cuts suggests a more supportive macroeconomic environment, which could spur growth not only in the U.S. but also in global markets. 
If central banks worldwide follow a similar easing path, the global consumer base for Nike may increase spending, particularly in emerging markets where credit is becoming more accessible.<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/hood" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is NKE A Good Stock To Buy?</h2>
When deciding whether to buy a stock, there are some key fundamentals investors may want to consider. One of these factors is revenue growth. Buying a stock is essentially a bet that the business will continue to grow and generate profits in the future.
Nike (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) has reported average annual revenue growth of 8.47% over the past 5 years. .
It's also important to pay attention to valuation when deciding whether to buy a stock. Nike has a forward P/E ratio of 26.18. This means investors are paying $26.18 for each dollar of expected earnings in the future. The average forward P/E ratio of Nike's peers is 17.58.
Other important metrics to look at include a company's profitability, balance sheet, performance relative to a benchmark index and valuation compared to peers. For in-depth analysis tools and important financial data, check out <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga PRO</a>.
NKE has a 52-week high of $123.39 and a 52-week low of $70.75.

Toronto-Dominion Bank Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TD#NYSE">TD</a>) shares are seeing positive movement Thursday. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40937551/td-bank-group-president-and-ceo-bharat-masrani-to-retire-april-10-2025-board-names-raymond-chun-as-s">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: The bank revealed that Bharat Masrani, who has served as CEO for over a decade and spent 38 years at the institution, will retire on April 10 2025. Masrani&#8217;s tenure saw significant milestones but also faced challenges, particularly toward the end of his leadership, as TD dealt with an unraveling $13.4 billion acquisition of First Horizon Corp and investigations into lapses in money-laundering controls at U.S. branches.
In response to these developments, TD Bank Group&#8217;s Board of Directors has named Raymond Chun, currently Group Head of Canadian Personal Banking, as the successor. Chun will step into the role of Chief Operating Officer on November 1 2024, with responsibility for all business lines, before officially taking over as CEO on April 10 2025. This move is part of TD's ongoing efforts to strengthen its leadership and reassure stakeholders during a challenging period for the bank.
What Else: The leadership transition is taking place while the bank grapples with investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice and financial regulators over its handling of money-laundering controls in its American branches—a division that Masrani had previously overseen. The fallout from these issues has led to the departure of several top executives in the bank&#8217;s legal and compliance departments, contributing to uncertainty about the company's direction.
Price Action: TD shares were trading higher by 2.27% at $64.01 according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Galmed Pharmaceuticals Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLMD#NASDAQ">GLMD</a>) shares are surging Thursday after the company&nbsp;announced plans to broaden its drug development activities <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/n40935244/galmed-announces-an-expansion-of-its-activities-to-cancer-and-major-cardiometabolic-diseases">over the next two years</a>.
What Happened: Galmed announced that it plans to expand its drug development activities by adding two additional programs.
One program aims to identify novel Aramchol-based drug combinations to overcome resistance to standard-of-care oncological treatments for patients with advanced colorectal and hepatic cancers. The other program is expected to help discover new methods to allow the development of a novel Aramchol-based drug combination targeting cardiac fibrosis.
The clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company said it&nbsp;plans to release new data from in-vitro and ex-vivo studies on the aforementioned programs during the&nbsp;fourth quarter.
&#8220;The conditions Galmed plans to focus upon in the coming years are major public health problems impacting millions of people worldwide and posing huge financial burden on health providers,&#8221; said Allen Baharaff, president and CEO of Galmed Pharmaceuticals.
&#8220;SCD1 is a key enzyme that critically regulates many physiological processes, thereby promoting the progression of cardiovascular, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. We are leveraging on two decades of development of the most clinically advanced SCD1 inhibitor (Aramchol) to date as we broaden our drug development activities.&#8221;

Galmed Pharmaceuticals is a very low-float stock with approximately 625,000 shares available for public trading, per&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;The company also had a market cap of less than $4.5 million as of Wednesday's close.&nbsp;Low-float, micro-cap stocks can be extremely volatile, which may help explain some of Thursday's surge.
Galmed&#8217;s average session volume over a 100-day period is approximately 1.711 million. Thursday&#8217;s trading volume has already crossed 16 million at the time of writing, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
GLMD Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/glmd">Galmed shares</a> were up 53.6% at $10.60 at the time of publication, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Vivos Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VVOS#NASDAQ">VVOS</a>) shares are trading lower by 26.1% to $3.05 during Thursday&#8217;s session after the company announced a $4.3 million registered offering of 1.36 million shares of common stock at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/g40935188/vivos-therapeutics-announces-pricing-of-4-3-million-registered-direct-offering-of-common-stock-pri">$3.15 per share</a>.
The direct offering is expected to close on September 20, pending standard closing conditions, and will generate approximately $4.3 million in gross proceeds. H.C. Wainwright &amp; Co. is the exclusive placement agent for the offering. 
Vivos says the company plans to use the net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. Additionally, no stock purchase warrants are included in the offering.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is VVOS A Good Stock To Buy?</h2>
An investor can make a few decisions when deciding whether a stock is a good buy. In addition to valuation metrics and price action which you can find on Benzinga's quote pages &#8211; like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/VVOS">Vivos Therapeutics</a>&#8216;s page for example &#8211; there are factors like whether or not a company pays a dividend or buys a large portion of its stock each quarter.
These are known as capital allocation programs. Vivos Therapeutics does not pay a dividend, but obviously has a few ways it can return value to shareholders. Feel free to search Benzinga's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/dividends">dividend calendar</a> for the next company that is due to pay a dividend and determine what kind of yield you can earn for holding a share of the company.
For example, if you're looking to earn an annualized return of 23.1%, you'll need to buy a share of North American Finl 15 by the Sep. 30, 2024. Once done, you can expect to receive a nominal payout of $0.11 on Oct. 10, 2024.
Buyback programs are obviously different and highly variable. A company can approve a buyback program and purchase shares as it sees fit over the course of time in which the buyback was authorized. Looking through the latest news on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/VVOS">Vivos Therapeutics</a> will often yield whether or not the company has approved a buyback program recently. Buyback programs usually serve as a support for share prices, serving as a backstop for demand.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, VVOS has a 52-week high of $48.79 and a 52-week low of $1.91.

What's Going On With Autonomous Driving Stock Mobileye Thursday?

Bulls are stampeding across Wall Street on Thursday in the wake of the Federal Reserve&#8217;s decision to cut interest rates for the first time<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40926026/federal-reserve-delivers-bold-0-5-rate-cut-signals-further-easing-ahead"> in over four years</a>.
The central bank&#8217;s bold move, a 50-basis-point cut, caught analysts off guard and sent the U.S. stock market to fresh record highs at the opening of Thursday&#8217;s session.
The S&amp;P 500 soared to a new all-time high, reaching 5,700 points. Similarly, the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed to an unprecedented 42,000 points.
In the first 30 minutes of trading, the S&amp;P 500 and Dow Jones rose by 1.4% and 1%, respectively. The Nasdaq 100 climbed 1.5%, although the Russell 2000, representing small-cap stocks, outperformed with a surge of over 2%.
The market rally was primarily driven by the Magnificent Seven: Microsoft Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE">MSFT</a>), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), NVIDIA Corp.

Each of the Magnificent Seven are recording daily gains ranging from 1.5% to 4.5%, solidly in positive territory.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Strong Labor Market Eases Slowdown Fears, Analysts Boost Rate-Cut Wagers</h3>
Thursday&#8217;s economic data further boosted investor confidence. Weekly jobless claims came in well below expectations, suggesting a lower-than-expected trend of rising unemployment. 
Continuing jobless claims also dropped more than expected, hinting at a potential absorption of long-term unemployed individuals into the job market. 
This data alleviated concerns about rising unemployment and provided a more optimistic outlook for the economy.
Wall Street analysts quickly adjusted their expectations following the Federal Reserve&#8217;s rate cut. There is now growing anticipation of additional rate cuts, diverging from the cautious tone expressed in the Fed&#8217;s September &#8220;dot plot&#8221; and Chair Jerome Powell&#8216;s remarks during the press conference.
Notably, Goldman Sachs economist Jan Hatzius revised his forecast from expecting a 25-basis-point cut at every other meeting to predicting a rate cut at every meeting. He even left the door open for a back-to-back 50-basis-point reduction in November.

Thursday,&nbsp;the FDA declined to approve Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VNDA#NASDAQ">VNDA</a>)&nbsp;New Drug Application (NDA) of tradipitant for symptoms in gastroparesis, providing Vanda with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/n40935243/fda-declines-to-approve-vandas-marketing-application-for-tradipitant-in-gastroparesis" rel="noreferrer noopener">Complete Response Letter (CRL)</a>.
Gastroparesis (means&nbsp;paralysis of the stomach) is&nbsp;a condition that slows down the stomach&#8217;s ability to empty its contents.
It is associated with severe nausea, vomiting, and difficulty finishing a normal meal.

The FDA has approved no effective treatment in over 40 years.
Vanda&#8217;s tradipitant application included evidence from two placebo-controlled studies, the results of which were published in peer-reviewed journals.
The&nbsp;CRL was conclusory in nature. It generally disregarded the evidence provided and instead suggested that Vanda conduct additional studies with a design and duration inconsistent with the advice of key experts in the field and not appropriate based on the scientific understanding and natural course of the disorder.&nbsp;
Furthermore, the FDA&#8217;s action was delayed by more than 185 days and failed to satisfy the Food Drug and Cosmetic Act (FDCA) requirements.
The FDCA requires that the FDA review a new drug application and provide either an approval or an opportunity for a hearing within 180 days of submission. In this case, the FDA failed to do either.
Despite the FDA&#8217;s disappointing action,&nbsp;Vanda believes that the tradipitant application has met the substantial evidence of efficacy standard and has a favorable benefit-risk profile for gastroparesis patients.&nbsp;
While Vanda has repeatedly requested that the FDA convene an expert advisory committee to review the application and advise the Commissioner on its approvability, the FDA has refused to do so.
The company added that several patients currently treated with tradipitant have filed a Citizen Petition urging the FDA to approve tradipitant for gastroparesis.
Vanda will continue to pursue the marketing authorization for tradipitant and support the expanded access program.
Vanda plans to submit a separate NDA for tradipitant to prevent vomiting in motion sickness later this year.
Price Action: VNDA stock is down 7.68% at $4.57 at the last check on Thursday.
