<p><strong>Andres Maldonado</strong> of H.C.

<p>The firm pointed to CRB-701's positive Phase 1 data and sees the company's valuation primarily tied to this Nectin-4-based ADC for cancer treatment, rather than the obesity drug alone.</p>

A Glimpse Into The Expert Outlook On Home Depot Through 16 Analysts

<p><strong>Constellation Energy Corporation</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CEG#NASDAQ">CEG</a>) shares are trading relatively flat today after jumping more than 22% after the company signed a 20-year <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40957437/microsoft-taps-constellation-for-20-year-carbon-free-power-3-400-jobs-coming-to-pennsylvania" rel="noreferrer noopener">power purchase agreement with </a><strong><a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40957437/microsoft-taps-constellation-for-20-year-carbon-free-power-3-400-jobs-coming-to-pennsylvania" rel="noreferrer noopener">Microsoft </a></strong><a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40957437/microsoft-taps-constellation-for-20-year-carbon-free-power-3-400-jobs-coming-to-pennsylvania" rel="noreferrer noopener">on Friday.</a></p>
<p>The deal entails the launch of the Crane Clean Energy Center (CCEC) and the restart of Three Mile Island Unit 1,&nbsp;which was closed five years ago.</p>
<p>Following the announcement, several analysts raised the price target on the stock.</p>
<p><strong>KeyBanc </strong>analyst Sophie Karp maintained an Overweight rating and raised <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CEG/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">the price target from&nbsp;$230&nbsp;to&nbsp;$265</a>.</p>
<p>The analyst writes that the deal allows for reevaluating other parts of CEG&#8217;s portfolio, and they expect continued positive momentum for the shares.</p>
<p>Nuclear generation has unique scarcity characteristics that are difficult to replicate at scale, positioning CEG to leverage its asset base and expertise as the country&#8217;s largest nuclear operator, says the analyst.</p>
<p>Although the company did not disclose the offtake price, Karp estimates that it needs to be around $120/MWh to achieve a projected increase in &#8220;base&#8221; EPS CAGR from 10% to 13% between 2024 and 2030.</p>
<p>The analyst writes that the price is a significant premium over current PJM power curves and exceeds the estimated ~$60/MWh gross receipts from CEG&#8217;s PJM fleet based on recent capacity pricing.</p>
<p>The analyst updated the estimates based on the second-quarter results, revised power and capacity prices, and operating assumptions.</p>
<p>The impacts of the MSFT deal will be outside the forecast horizon, as the plant is expected to restart in 2028, adds the analyst.</p>
<p>Apart from this, <strong>Evercore ISI</strong> maintained an Outperform rating, with an increased price target to $254 from $212.</p>
<p>Maintaining an Overweight rating, <strong>Wells Fargo </strong>increased the price target to&nbsp;$300 from $250 and <strong>Morgan Stanley</strong> to $313 from $233.</p>
<p>Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;<strong>Strive Natural Resources and Security ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FTWO#NYSE">FTWO</a>) and&nbsp;<strong>Virtus Reaves Utilities ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UTES#NYSE">UTES</a>).</p>
<p><strong>Price Action</strong>: CEG shares are down 0.12% at $254.69 at the last check Monday.</p>

<p>ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) — Boyd Interactive has purchased Resorts Digital, the online gambling arm of Atlantic City's Resorts casino, for an undisclosed amount.</p>
<p>Mark Giannantonio, president of Resorts, said Monday that the transaction was finalized on Sept. 1. Neither company would reveal the purchase price.</p>

<p>Over that period, Resorts Digital won over $573 million, compared to $109 million for the physical Resorts casino, according to the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement.</p>
<p>In terms of profitability, Resorts Digital posted a gross operating profit of $9.6 million in the first half of this year, up 5.6% from the same period a year ago. In contrast, the physical Resorts casino had a gross operating profit of $355,000 in the first half of this year, down almost 89% from a year earlier.</p>
<p>Boyd Interactive, part of Las Vegas-based Boyd Gaming, received ResortsCasino.com and MoheganSunCasino.com in the deal, along with one unused sports betting skin, or online identity.</p>

<p><strong>Trump Media &amp; Technology Group Corp. </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJT#NASDAQ">DJT</a>) shares are trading lower Monday amid the expiration of a major lockup period that prevented large shareholders, including <strong>Donald Trump</strong>, from selling shares. Also, Trump has rejected a second debate with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40971448/kamala-harris-ready-to-face-off-in-second-debate-but-donald-trump-says-its-too-late">Vice President <strong>Kamala Harris</strong></a>.</p>
<p><strong>The Details:</strong></p>
<p>TMTG shares have fallen more than 25% following last week's expiration of the lockup period for many large shareholders of the stock. Trump has indicated on multiple occasions that he will not be selling his shares. However, other large investors, including <strong>ARC Global</strong> registered shares for sale back in April, may now sell shares if they so choose.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Additionally, Vice President Harris accepted CNN's invitation for a second debate over the weekend, while Trump reiterated his previous position that there would not be another debate before voters go to the polls in November. </p>
<p>Trump appears to be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40971721/voters-warm-to-kamala-harris-as-election-nears">losing his lead</a> in the Presidential race, as a slew of recent polls show former Vice President Harris gaining in several key states.&nbsp;</p>
<p>According to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, Trump Media &amp; Technology shares are trading well-below the stock&#8217;s 50-day moving average of $24.80 and have dropped more than 75% since the stock's debut in March.&nbsp;</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">DJT Stock Prediction 2024: </h3>
<p>Equity research analysts on and off Wall Street typically use earnings growth and fundamental research as a form of valuation and forecasting. But many in trading turn to technical analysis as a way to form predictive models for share price trajectory.</p>
<p>Some investors look to trends to help forecast where they believe a stock could trade at a certain point in the future. Looking at Trump Media &amp; Technology, an investor could make an assessment about a stock's long term prospects using a moving average and trend line. If they believe a stock will remain above the moving average, which many believe is a bullish signal, they can extrapolate that trend into the future using a trend line. For Trump Media &amp; Technology, the 200-day moving average sits at $33.96, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, which is above the current price of $12.71. For more on charts and trend lines, <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">see a description here.</a></p>
<p>Traders believe that when a stock is above its moving average, it is a generally bullish signal, and when it crosses below, it is a more negative signal. Investors could use trend lines to make an educated guess about where a stock could trade at a later date if conditions remain stable.</p>
<p><strong>DJT Price Action:</strong> According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, Trump Media &amp; Technology Group shares are down 6.17% at $12.71 at the time of publication Monday.</p>

<p>By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for REE Automotive (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/REE#NASDAQ">REE</a>) &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.</p>
<p>Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.

<p>If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.</p>
