Boeing Says Reached Out To The Union To Give Them More Time And Offer Logistical Support Once They Decide To Vote

<p><strong>Las Vegas Sands Corp.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LVS#NYSE">LVS</a>) shares are trading higher by 6% to $44.65 Tuesday afternoon, propelled by the <strong>People&#8217;s Bank of China&#8217;s (PBoC)</strong> announcement of a broad monetary <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/09/41003814/chinese-stocks-jump-as-central-bank-unveils-major-stimulus-to-spur-economy-a-step-in-the-right-direc">stimulus package</a> aimed at revitalizing <strong>China&#8217;s</strong> slowing economy.</p>
<p>The PBoC&#8217;s unexpected measures, including significant cuts to the <strong>reserve requirement ratio (RRR)</strong> for banks and the seven-day repo rate, injected new optimism into the markets, particularly for companies with substantial exposure to the Chinese economy.</p>
<p><strong>Why This Matters:</strong> Las Vegas Sands, one of the world's largest casino operators, derives a significant portion of its revenue from its properties in Macau, a <strong>Special Administrative Region</strong> of China. </p>
<p>Macau's casinos, heavily reliant on Chinese tourism and consumer spending, have faced challenges over the past few years due to China&#8217;s slowing economic growth, regulatory crackdowns and travel restrictions stemming from the pandemic. </p>
<p><strong>Read Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/09/41004045/whats-going-on-with-chinese-stocks-alibaba-nio-xpeng-li-auto-on-tuesday">What&#8217;s Going On With Chinese Stocks Alibaba, NIO, XPeng, Li Auto On Tuesday?</a></strong></p>
<p>The PBoC's move to cut the RRR by 50 basis points, releasing $140 billion of liquidity into the banking system, is particularly beneficial for businesses like Las Vegas Sands that rely on Chinese consumer spending. </p>
<p>By making it easier for Chinese consumers to access loans and credit, the monetary easing is expected to boost disposable income and discretionary spending, which are critical to the casino and entertainment sectors in Macau. </p>
<p><strong>What Else:</strong> The reduction in mortgage rates and other financial burdens is also seen as a direct relief to the property market, which also has ripple effects on consumer confidence and spending in other areas, including leisure and travel.</p>
<p>The seven-day repo rate cut of 20 basis points and the ongoing reductions in policy rates signal a broad easing of monetary conditions, which could lead to a rebound in domestic tourism and gaming revenues in Macau. </p>
<p>As more liquidity enters the Chinese banking system, it is expected that consumer confidence will rise, encouraging greater spending on luxury experiences and travel—a trend that benefits high-end resorts and casinos like those operated by Las Vegas Sands.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy LVS Stock</h2>
<p>Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. </p>
<p>For example, in Las Vegas Sands&#8217; case, it is in the Consumer Discretionary sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.</p>
<p>According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, LVS has a 52-week high of $55.66 and a 52-week low of $36.62.</p>


Las Vegas Sands (LVS) Stock Surges: Here's What's Fueling The Rally

<p>Shares of <strong>Biohaven Ltd.</strong> (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bhvn#NYSE">BHVN</a>) were up 13.7% on Sept. 23 after the company announced positive top-line data from the pivotal BHV4157-206-RWE study, which evaluated its pipeline candidate, troriluzole, for the treatment of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA), a rare and debilitating neurodegenerative disease.</p>
<p>Currently, there are no FDA-approved therapy for the given indication.</p>
<p>The study showed the efficacy of troriluzole on the mean change from baseline in the modified functional Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (f-SARA) following three years of treatment.</p>
<p>Year to date, shares of Biohaven have gained 7.4% with no change for the industry.</p>

<p>Image Source: Zacks Investment Research</p>
<h2>BHVN&#39;s Pivotal BHV4157-206-RWE Study Data</h2>
<p>The study met the primary endpoint on the change from baseline in the f-SARA at three years in all study population genotypes following treatment with troriluzole (200 mg) in SCA patients.</p>
<p>Also, treatment with troriluzole led to statistically significant improvements in the f-SARA at years one and two. Data collected from multiple analyses showed a robust and clinically meaningful slowing of disease progression in SCA patients.</p>
<p>Importantly, treatment with troriluzole slowed disease progression by 50% to 70%, representing a 1.5-2.2 years delay in disease progression over three years compared to untreated patients.</p>
<p>Treatment with troriluzole demonstrated statistically significant superiority on nine consecutive, prespecified primary and secondary endpoints of the study.</p>
<p>Per management, troriluzole is the first treatment to show a delay in disease progression for SCA patients.</p>
<h2>BHVN&#39;s Upcoming Plans for Troriluzole</h2>
<p>Based on the positive data from the BHV4157-206-RWE study, along with previous safety and efficacy data, BHVN plans to submit a new drug application (NDA) for troriluzole in SCA with the FDA in the fourth quarter of 2024.</p>
<p>If approved, the company plans to launch troriluzole in the United States in 2025.</p>
<p>The FDA has granted Fast-Track and orphan drug designation to troriluzole for treating SCA. The European Medicines Agency has also granted orphan drug designation to troriluzole for treating SCA.</p>
<p>As a result of the orphan drug and fast-track designations granted by the FDA, the NDA for troriluzole is eligible for a priority review.</p>
<p>Troriluzole is also being evaluated in two late-stage studies for treating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Interim analysis of the second phase III OCD study is expected later in 2024, while top-line data from the first phase III OCD study is anticipated in the first half of 2025.</p>

<p>Aerospace company <strong>Boeing Co</strong> (NYSE) has endured a tumultuous 2024, grappling with airplane safety concerns, astronauts stranded in space, and serious contract disputes <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/09/40996898/boeings-striking-workers-reject-best-and-final-offer-it-missed-the-mark-on-many-of-the-things">with union workers.</a></p>
<p>The company's battle with SpaceX over space contracts may face significant challenges in the coming months and years due to these recent setbacks.</p>
<p><strong>What Happened: </strong>Boeing is currently facing a battle with union workers over contract demands<span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">, as over 30,000 employees have gone on strike. As a result of the contract disputes, the company has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40886979/boeing-stock-continues-to-fall-after-announcing-hiring-freeze-other-cost-cuts-amid-workers-strike" target="_blank" rel="noopener">placed a freeze on hiring </a>and considered furloughs</span>.</p>
<p>The labor battle compounds the company's recent troubles and could provide fuel for rival SpaceX and its CEO <strong>Elon Musk</strong> in future contracts with space agencies like NASA.</p>
<p>SpaceX has been dominating the space sector for many years and its recently complete space walk could lead to the company landing more deals, especially considering the concerns facing Boeing and its space division.</p>
<p>After several delays, Boeing sent the Starliner to the International Space Station (ISS) on June 5. <span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">The Starliner was supposed to return astronauts <strong>Butch Wilmore </strong>and <strong>Suni Williams </strong>to Earth on June 14, </span>but the duo remains stuck on the ISS due to complications with the spacecraft.</p>
<p>Ironically, it will be SpaceX that brings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40594834/spacex-ceo-elon-musk-takes-another-dig-at-boeing-for-failing-to-return-astronauts-on-starliner-ride">the astronauts home </a>next year aboard a SpaceX Dragon capsule.</p>
<p>Musk has often criticized Boeing and other companies that have won larger contracts than SpaceX, despite his space company's leadership and success in the sector.</p>
<p>"Our Dragon spacecraft is the only spacecraft capable of taking any significant cargo down from the Space Station," Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40899599/elon-musk-said-spacex-competitors-only-take-up-less-than-we-do-and-they-take-nothing-down-and-they-g">said back in 2014.</a> "They only take stuff up, they take up less than we do, and they take nothing down, and they get paid twice as much per mission as we do."</p>
<p>The Dragon <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/24/04/38297698/boeing-heads-to-space-could-nasa-deal-starliner-help-fend-off-airplane-segment-weakness">landed a $2.6 billion contract</a> in 2014 and has made multiple trips to the International Space Station. Boeing was awarded a similar contract in 2014 for ISS travel and the Starliner, but with a higher value of more than $4 billion. The June mission was Boeing's first to the Space Station.</p>
<p>Boeing&#8217;s safety concerns, Starliner struggles, and potential labor disruptions from union negotiations may all be factors that NASA and other organizations consider when awarding future contracts. Compare that to SpaceX, which has had successful missions, and Musk's well-known anti-union beliefs, resulting in fewer wage-related issues at his companies over the years.</p>

</ul>
<p><strong>Why It's Important</strong>: Safety and costs will likely be top priorities for a government agency like NASA when considering a contract winner.</p>
<p>Musk has recently accused the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40912464/elon-musk-accuses-faa-of-fining-spacex-over-nonsense-that-doesnt-affect-safety-amazingly-no-star">of favoritism towards </a>Boeing as the agency weighs a potential fine on SpaceX. Musk questions why Boeing has not faced fines or pushback over the Starliner stranding two people in space.</p>
<p>Boeing's Defense, Space &amp; Security segment had revenue of $25 billion in 2023 and was its second-largest segment, behind commercial airplanes ($33.9 billion).</p>
<p>For Boeing investors, there could be concerns across multiple divisions as new leadership looks to turn around the commercial airplanes segment after safety concerns and government inquiries. The space segment could also see setbacks thanks in part to its own doing, and also the success of its rival.</p>
<p><strong>BA Price Action</strong>: Boeing stock trades at $154.99 versus a 52-week trading range of $151.65 to $267.54. Boeing stock is down 38% year-to-date in 2024.</p>
