<h3>About Wynn Resorts</h3>
Wynn Resorts operates luxury casinos and resorts. The company was founded in 2002 by Steve Wynn, the former CEO. The company operates four megaresorts: Wynn Macau and Encore in Macao and Wynn Las Vegas and Encore in Las Vegas. Cotai Palace opened in August 2016 in Macao, and Encore Boston Harbor in Massachusetts opened June 2019. We expect the company to continue to build nongaming attractions in Macao over the next few years. We model Wynn's managed integrated resort in the United Arab Emirates to open in 2027. The company also operates Wynn Interactive, a digital sports betting and iGaming platform. The company received 76% and 24% of its 2019 prepandemic EBITDA from Macao and the US, respectively.

Delta Air Lines's Options Frenzy: What You Need to Know

New details have emerged about lavish spending practices at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38147208/national-association-of-realtors-anti-trust-case-to-be-reopened">National Association of Realtors (NAR)</a>, where member dues funded executive perks ranging from private club memberships to pet-sitting services, according to a <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/18/realestate/national-association-realtors-spending.html">New York Times investigation</a>.

Former CEO Bob Goldberg&#8217;s 2017 contract spotlighted the organization&#8217;s spending culture. It featured a $75,000 club initiation allowance, first-class travel for himself and his wife, a $1,500 monthly car stipend and even coverage for dog-sitting services. Over five years, his compensation package grew from $1.2 million to $2.6 million.
The New York Times investigation revealed a generous spending pattern extending beyond top executives to the organization&#8217;s elected leadership. NAR&#8217;s president received over $400,000 in 2022, while the president-elect earned more than $265,000 – positions the organization describes as &#8220;volunteer&#8221; roles.
Corporate credit cards issued to officers funded luxury experiences at high-end venues, including the St. Regis Hotel in Dana Point and Montage Laguna Beach. Leaders charged expensive dinners, golf outings, spa treatments and even Broadway shows to the cards.&nbsp;

Tax records from the time source show Goldberg&#8217;s predecessor has been earning $250,000 annually as a &#8220;former officer/consultant&#8221; since 2019, while a former chief advocacy officer received over $300,000 in 2022.
Nonprofit law specialists have raised concerns about the practices. &#8220;It is highly unusual – I would even say virtually unheard-of – for volunteer leaders and officers to receive compensation at those levels,&#8221; Jeff Tenenbaum, a Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit lawyer, said to the Times.
The spending revelations come at a challenging time for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/11/41944081/get-ready-for-a-housing-surge-nar-chief-economist-forecasts-major-sales-growth-and-steady-rates">NAR</a>. According to the report, the organization recently agreed to a $418 million settlement in a commission-related lawsuit and faces mounting member dissatisfaction. Three Michigan agents filed a class-action lawsuit in August challenging NAR&#8217;s mandatory membership structure, with similar suits following in Pennsylvania and California.

NAR spokesperson Mantill Williams defended the compensation of elected officials, describing the payments as travel reimbursements and &#8220;administrative stipends&#8221; to offset income lost while performing organizational duties. However, former elected officials told the Times they rarely filed for travel reimbursements, instead using NAR-provided credit cards that billed directly to the organization.
The organization&#8217;s financial practices face increased scrutiny as members question the value of their mandatory dues. Jen McDonald, a Reno broker and 24-year member, expressed disappointment in NAR&#8217;s recent performance. &#8220;I don&#8217;t think they defended us. I think they defended themselves,&#8221; she said.
With the first $200 million settlement payment due early next year, NAR is considering charging for previously free educational programs, potentially adding to members&#8217; financial burden while questions about organizational spending persist.

Realtor Dues At Work: $400K 'Volunteer' Salaries, Luxury Hotels And Golf Retreats

Senti Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNTI#NASDAQ">SNTI</a>) stock is skyrocketing on Monday, with a strong session volume of 73.4 million compared to an average volume of 17.81 thousand, as per data from <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/feature/newsfeed" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.
The company reported initial clinical data from a Phase 1 trial of SENTI-202, a potential first-in-class Logic Gated off-the-shelf chimeric antigen receptor natural killer (CAR-NK) investigational cell therapy, for relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies including <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/g42263057/senti-bio-announces-positive-initial-clinical-data-in-phase-1-clinical-trial-of-senti-202-a-logic-" rel="noreferrer noopener">acute myeloid leukemia</a>.
SENTI-202 is designed to selectively target and eliminate CD33 and/or FLT3-expressing hematologic malignancies while sparing healthy bone marrow cells.
Three AML patients have been treated at the lowest dose level (1.0 billion CAR+ NK cells per dose) and, as of the data cutoff date of September 19, two achieved complete remission, confirmed by bone marrow biopsy, which includes blast reduction and recovery of blood cells to normal ranges.
In addition, both patients were assessed as measurable residual disease negative after treatment, defined as no detectable cancer cells in a bone marrow sample.
Both patients maintain remission (4+ months and 3+ months, respectively).
The Safety Review Committee cleared the lowest dose cohort, and dose escalation continues at the 1.5 billion CAR+ NK cells/dose level.
SENTI-202 was generally well-tolerated with no dose-limiting toxicities and an adverse event profile consistent with other investigational NK cell therapies and patients with underlying AML receiving lymphodepleting chemotherapy.
SENTI-202 transgene was detected in the peripheral circulation of all three patients and all cycles, with a pharmacokinetic profile generally consistent with other investigational CAR-NK therapy levels.
The company expects to enroll approximately 20 patients in the Phase 1 trial. A higher dose cohort of 1.5 billion CAR+ NK cells/dose is actively enrolling.
Additional safety and efficacy data, including initial durability data, are expected in 2025.
Concurrently, Senti Biosciences announced a private investment in public equity financing to issue and sell an aggregate of 16,713 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, with gross proceeds of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/g42263313/senti-biosciences-inc-announces-oversubscribed-37-6-million-private-placement-equity-financing" rel="noreferrer noopener">approximately $37.6 million</a>.
The company has also granted a certain investor an option to purchase an additional 4,444 shares of Preferred Stock and accompanying warrants for gross proceeds of approximately $10.0 million.
Senti Biosciences also announced that it has appointed Fran Schulz, an experienced biotechnology and financial executive, to the Senti Bio Board of Directors. Omid Farokhzad is departing from the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42262836" rel="noreferrer noopener">Board in conjunction with Schulz&#8217;s appointment.</a>
Price Action: SNTI stock is up 439% at $11.66 at last check Monday.

<h3>Arthur J. Gallagher P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Arthur J. Gallagher has a better P/E ratio of 59.59 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 48.21 of the Insurance industry. Ideally, one might believe that Arthur J. Gallagher Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

A Look Into Arthur J. Gallagher Inc's Price Over Earnings

A new investment fund, the Azoria Meritocracy ETF, is set to launch in early 2025, positioning itself as an &#8220;S&amp;P 500 fund without<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42000168/pro-bitcoin-argentina-president-javier-milei-becomes-first-foreign-leader-to-meet-trumplauds-elon-musk-for-free-speech-support"> the woke s&#8212;.&#8221;</a>
What To Know: The fund, created by 29-year-old James Fishback, will exclude companies that use diversity quotas in promotion or hiring decisions.&nbsp;
"The country just wholeheartedly rejected DEI affirmative action," FIshback said in an interview with Semafor. "We're going to deliver that mandate to the private sector. These practices are not just unethical but bad business."

Kennedy Jr. Rattles Vaccine Stocks: &#8216;Shoot First Reaction&#8217;</a>
Last week, Walmart Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) became the latest major corporation to roll back its diversity, equity and inclusion — DEI — policies. Walmart joins other companies like Tractor Supply Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSCO#NASDAQ">TSCO</a>) and Lowe's Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>), all of which ended their participation in Human Rights Campaign surveys and removed supplier diversity spending goals. 
Fishback estimates the Meritocracy fund's criteria will eliminate approximately two dozen companies from being eligible for inclusion in the fund. He also intends to pressure excluded companies to drop their DEI policies through public campaigns and behind-the-scenes engagement.&nbsp;
According to <a href="https://www.semafor.com/article/11/26/2024/the-sp-500-without-the-woke-sht-here-come-the-maga-funds">a report</a> from Semafor, Azoria is finalizing a roughly $25 million venture round that Fishback said is sourced from "two prominent conservative-minded California venture capitalists" and family offices.&nbsp;
The firm is also planning more funds in the future. One of the planned future ETFs would trade under the ticker "BTFD" and would "buy the dip" when stocks fall sharply.&nbsp;
Politically Conservative ETFs: The Azoria Meritocracy ETF will join the broader trend of conservative-oriented investment vehicles gaining momentum following Trump&#8217;s election to a second term. 
The Point Bridge America First ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAGA#BATS">MAGA</a>) is a currently traded ETF composed of 150 companies from the S&amp;P 500 Index whose employees and political action committees have shown support for Republican candidates and ideals.

It's been a year since Take-Two Interactive Software Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTWO#NASDAQ">TTWO</a>) Rockstar dropped the first Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer, and fans are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming">growing restless. </a>
With no updates from the developer, the community is grasping at straws — whether it's scrutinizing YouTube playlist tweaks, analyzing images of the moon, or battling a wave of AI-generated fake leaks.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">GTA 6&#8217;s Playlist Updates </h3>
According to IGN, Rockstar's official YouTube channel recently updated its playlists, sparking speculation about a possible second trailer.While some believe it signals an announcement is close, others argue it's just routine housekeeping.

Meanwhile, fans have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/24/11/42144628/gta-6-trailer-2-fans-frustrated-as-rockstar-possibly-breaks-moon-theory">latched onto images of the moon</a>, claiming they might contain cryptic hints about the game's next big reveal. So far, these lunar theories haven't led anywhere, but that hasn't stopped the speculation.
Adding to the chaos, GTA 6 subreddit moderators are tackling a surge of AI-generated images falsely presented as leaked screenshots. The rules are clear: "Fake ‘leaks' and misleading AI-generated content will be removed," moderators warn. Despite their efforts, these fake posts continue to muddy the waters, frustrating fans eager for real news.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trailer 1 Revisited</h3>
With no new material from Rockstar, some fans have returned to dissecting last year's trailer. From counting the number of feet in the video (152, if you're wondering) to calculating the holes in a cell door net, the community's attention to detail is unmatched. Unfortunately, these efforts haven't uncovered anything groundbreaking.
Rockstar remains silent about GTA 6, while publisher <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41818430/take-two-earnings-show-gta-6-on-track-for-2025-ceo-vows-no-huge-release-overlap">Take-Two still lists fall 2025 as the release window</a> for the game on PS5 and Xbox Series X&#x7C;S.
