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.

<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.

S&P 500, Dow Jones Hit Record Highs: Magnificent 7 Add $400 Billion After Fed's Historic Interest Rate Cut

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.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39530573/whats-going-on-with-vanda-pharmaceuticals-shares-today" rel="noreferrer noopener">What&#8217;s Going On With Vanda Pharmaceuticals Shares Today?</a>
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.

A Raleigh, North Carolina man is embroiled in a legal dispute over the recovery of his multimillion-dollar mansion in a bizarre real estate fraud case.
The deed to Craig Adams' 8,300-square-foot home in an exclusive gated community was transferred to a stranger named Dawn Mangum without his knowledge or consent. The property is now <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/06/39398799/online-listings-might-be-big-fat-scams-fraudsters-lurk-in-online-vacation-rental-listings">listed for sale at $4.25 million</a>.

</ul>
Adams is frustrated with being asked to pay thousands of dollars to reclaim his own home.
"Found out that she had filed a false warranty claim deed against this house and basically tried to steal [it]," according to a story in The New York Post.
Adams first became aware of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39348022/new-york-city-clerks-mistakenly-approve-paperwork-that-falsely-tied-ivanka-trump-and-hillary-clinton">fraudulent transfer</a> when his homeowner's association contacted him to inquire about a potential property sale. Mangum had contacted the HOA requesting access to the gated community where the home is located, triggering suspicion.
Upon further investigation, Adams discovered that Mangum had forged documents and filed them with the Wake County Register of Deeds, falsely claiming ownership of his property under the Dawn Mangum Trust. The paperwork was approved and recorded without any verification of its authenticity.

"There's no effort to authenticate the validity of the change of deed," Adams said. "Nobody verifies who owns the house that's trying to be transferred to a different owner."
Adams promptly presented evidence of his ownership, including mortgage and tax documents, but county officials informed him that they were powerless to intervene. Adams said his only option was to hire a private attorney to file a civil suit against Mangum.

The incident highlights a loophole in North Carolina law. County registers of deeds are not required to verify the authenticity of submitted paperwork, nor do they check the validity of notaries or if the person submitting the deed has the legal right to the property.
&nbsp;The law permits these offices to process many documents daily without conducting thorough investigations unless signs of fraud are obvious. In Adams' case, no red flags were raised.
Trending: Want to invest in homes?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/realbricks"> $100 is enough on this platform</a> that lets you cash out whenever you want.&nbsp; &nbsp;
Mangum asserts that the situation was a misunderstanding. She said she believed that the property was abandoned and in foreclosure and believed she was legally entitled to claim ownership.
She said she is willing to correct the paperwork and return ownership of the home to Adams.
The Wake County Sheriff's Department is investigating the case and the Register of Deeds says it will help how it can but is limited by state law.

Clifford Starke, chairman and CEO, explained what the deal means for Flora.
&#8220;This supply agreement with Blossom Genetics is a pivotal step in our efforts to expand Flora&#8217;s global presence and provide top-tier cannabis products to Germany," Starke said. "The demand for medical cannabis has surged since legalization, and we are confident that the strains we will bring to the market, will resonate with patients and healthcare providers alike.&#8221;

The listing, Starke said earlier, allows new European investors to gain exposure to the company by increasing its trading liquidity and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/08/40255720/flora-growth-lists-on-frankfurt-stock-exchange-aiming-to-connect-with-european-investors">facilitating investment from European investors</a>.
