Grail Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRAL#NASDAQ">GRAL</a>) shares are trading higher Wednesday after the company announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/analyst-ratings/25/01/43401565/what-6-analyst-ratings-have-to-say-about-quest-diagnostics">a new collaboration with</a> Quest Diagnostics (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DGX#NYSE">DGX</a>).
The partnership aims to improve provider access to its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/n42964119/patient-reported-outcomes-for-grails-galleri-multi-cancer-early-detection-blood-test-published-in-">Galleri multi-cancer early detection test. </a>
What To Know: The move is expected to streamline test ordering and expand availability across Quest's nationwide network, but investor reaction suggests concerns about the immediate impact on GRAIL's business.
GRAIL and Quest Diagnostics revealed the initial phase of their partnership, which allows physicians to order the Galleri test directly through Quest's connectivity system. This integration will enable over 500,000 providers to seamlessly request the test, just as they do with other blood work, through Quest's Quanum laboratory portal and more than 900 electronic health record systems. Patients can also access the test at any of Quest's 7,400 locations without needing to bring a test kit to their blood draw appointment.
Grail president Josh Ofman emphasized the significance of this expansion, noting that early detection is critical for improving cancer outcomes. 
He pointed out that while there are established screenings for only five cancers, nearly 70% of cancer-related deaths come from those without recommended screening tests. By integrating the Galleri test into routine exams, GRAIL and Quest aim to address this gap and make early detection more accessible.
Quest Senior Vice President Mark Gardner highlighted that the collaboration builds on their ongoing efforts since 2021 to expand access to the test. He stated that the new ordering process should simplify adoption among healthcare providers, making it easier to incorporate Galleri into standard cancer screening protocols.
The Galleri test detects cancer signals in the bloodstream by identifying DNA fragments shed by tumors, offering a non-invasive way to screen for multiple types of cancer before symptoms appear. The test is prescription-only and recommended for adults at elevated cancer risk, such as those over 50.
Price Action: Grail shares were up 17.6% at $38.63 at the time of writing, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2"> Benzinga Pro.</a>

Quest Diagnostics (NYSE: DGX) And Mainz Biomed (NASDAQ: MYNZ) Team Up To Commercialize ColoAlert Early Cancer Detection Screening In The U.S.

캘리포니아주 멘로파크에 본사를 둔 미국의 생명공학 회사인 그레일(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRAL#NASDAQ">GRAL</a>)의 주식은 회사가 임상 실험 연구 기업인 퀘스트 다이아그노스틱스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DGX#NYSE">DGX</a>)와의 새로운 협업을 발표한 후 수요일 18% 이상 급등 마감했다.
이번 파트너십은 제공자들이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/n42964119/patient-reported-outcomes-for-grails-galleri-multi-cancer-early-detection-blood-test-published-in-">갈레리(Galleri) 다중암 조기 검출 테스트</a>에 더 쉽게 접근할 수 있도록 하는 것을 목표로 한다.
알아야 할 사항: 이번 조치는 검사 주문 과정을 간소화하고 퀘스트의 전국 네트워크를 통해 가용성을 확장할 것으로 기대되지만, 투자자 반응은 그레일의 사업에 미치는 즉각적인 영향에 대한 우려를 나타낸다.
그레일과 퀘스트 다이아그노스틱스는 의사들이 퀘스트의 연결 시스템을 통해 갈레리 테스트를 직접 주문할 수 있는 파트너십의 초기 단계를 공개했다. 이 통합을 통해 500,000명 이상의 제공자가 다른 혈액 검사와 마찬가지로 퀘스트의 쿼텀(Quanum) 실험실 포털과 900개 이상의 전자 건강 기록 시스템을 통해 원활하게 테스트를 요청할 수 있다. 환자들은 테스트 키트를 혈액 채취 약속에 가져갈 필요 없이 퀘스트의 7,400개 위치 중 어느 곳에서나 테스트를 받을 수 있다.
그레일의 사장 조쉬 오프먼(Josh Ofman)은 이 확장의 중요성을 강조하며 조기 발견이 암 치료 결과를 개선하는 데 중요하다고 언급했다.
그는 다섯 가지 암에 대해서만 검진이 확립되어 있는 반면, 암 관련 사망자의 거의 70%는 권장 검진 테스트가 없는 암에서 발생한다고 지적했다. 갈레리 테스트를 정기 검사에 통합함으로써 그레일과 퀘스트는 이 격차를 해소하고 조기 발견을 더 쉽게 접근할 수 있도록 하려 한다.
퀘스트의 수석 부사장 마크 가드너(Mark Gardne)는 이번 협력이 2021년 이후 진행해 온 테스트 접근성 확장 노력을 바탕으로 한다고 강조했다. 그는 새로운 주문 프로세스가 의료 제공자 간의 채택을 간소화하여 갈레리를 표준 암 검진 프로토콜에 통합하기 쉽게 만들 것이라고 밝혔다.
갈레리 테스트는 혈류에서 암 신호를 감지하여 종양이 떨어뜨린 DNA 조각을 식별함으로써 여러 유형의 암을 증상이 나타나기 전에 비침습적으로 선별할 수 있는 방법을 제공한다. 이 테스트는 처방전 전용이며, 50세 이상의 고위험 성인에게 권장된다.
주가 동향: 그레일의 주식은 수요일 18.43% 급등한 39.26달러에 마감되었다.

화요일에 퀘스트 다이아그노스틱스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DGX#NYSE">DGX</a>)는 2분기 조정 주당 순이익(EPS)을 2.35달러로 발표하여 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">컨센서스인 2.34달러</a>를 상회했다.
매출은 전년 동기 대비 2.5% 증가한 23억 9천만 달러로 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/07/39903596/ups-q2-earnings-revenue-and-eps-miss-annual-outlook-cut-restarts-stock-buyback" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">컨센서스인 23억 9천만 달러</a>와 거의 일치했다.
회장, CEO 겸 사장인 짐 데이비스(Jim Davis)는 &#8220;우리는 기본 비즈니스 매출이 거의 4% 증가하고 총 매출이 2.5% 증가했을 뿐만 아니라 기본 비즈니스의 생산성과 수익성이 지속적으로 개선되는 등 또 다른 강력한 분기를 보냈다&#8221;고 말했다.
"이런 성과는 새로운 의사와 병원 고객의 성장, 고급 진단의 채택 확대, 의료 활용의 지속적인 강화를 포함하는 보다 유리한 테스트 혼합에 기인한다. 또한 자동화와 AI의 활용을 확대하여 운영 품질과 효율성을 개선하는 데 진전을 이루었다"고 덧붙였다.
조정 영업 이익은 2.1% 증가한 3억 9,800만 달러를 기록했다.
전망: 퀘스트 다이아그노스틱스는 회계연도 2024년 매출 지침을 95억 달러~95억 8천만 달러로 수정했다. 이는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/04/38385424/quest-diagnostics-says-sales-in-q1-increased-for-the-first-time-since-the-height-of" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">이전 지침</a>인 94억~94억 8천만 달러와 컨센서스인 94억 6천만 달러였다.
이 회사는 2024년 조정 EPS를 8.80달러~9.00달러로 예상하는데, 이는 이전 지침인 8.72달러~8.97달러와 컨센서스인 8.86달러와 비교된다.
투자 은행 윌리엄 블레어(William Blair)는 2분기 총 기본 매출이 약 4% 증가해 추정치 3.7%와 거의 일치한다고 지적했다. 경영진은 이러한 긍정적인 추세가 예상보다 오래 지속되었다는 점을 지적하면서 의료 활용의 지속적인 강점을 핵심 요소로 강조했다.
또한, 새로운 의사 및 병원 고객의 추가와 고급 진단 기술의 채택 확대로 성장이 뒷받침되어 매출 구성이 더욱 좋아졌다.
이 분석가는 주요 지표가 기대치를 충족하거나 약간 초과하는 등 퀘스트의 최근 결과가 견고하다고 생각하고 있다. 연간 전망은 예상보다 약간 개선되었으며 영업 이익률은 이전 최저치에서 상승하고 있다. 이번 실적은 주가를 안정적으로 유지할 것으로 보인다.
앞으로 윌리엄 블레어 총리는 회사가 2025년에 한 자릿수 높은 수익 성장을 달성할 준비가 되어 있는 가운데 하반기에 완만한 성장 가능성을 보고 있다. 퀘스트는 장기적으로 실험실 테스트 추세를 활용하기 위한 전략을 마련하여 다양한 시장 주기에 걸쳐 일관되고 예측 가능한 성장을 이룰 수 있는 좋은 위치에 있다.
윌리엄 블레어는 이 주식을 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DGX/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">아웃퍼폼(Outperform)으로 평가</a>했다.
Price Action: DGX shares are up 4.06% at $141.53 at the last check Tuesday.
주가 움직임: 화요일 퀘스트의 주식은 정규 거래에서 4.32% 하락한 140.96에 마감했다.

S&amp;P 500 기업들 중 약 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/07/39769910/goldman-sachs-q2-earnings-revenue-and-eps-beat-investment-banking-fees-up-21-hikes-dividend" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">14%가 6월 분기 실적을 발표</a>했으며, 더 넓은 지수를 구성하는 기업들의 혼합 실적 성장률은 여전히 ​​양호하다. 이번 주에는 기술 보고 시즌이 공식적으로 시작될 것이며, 이는 최근 주에 가파른 하락세를 보인 시장의 향방을 잠재적으로 결정할 수 있다.
지난주 주요 사건: 기술주의 실적 시즌은 지난주 칩 장비 제조업체 ASML 홀딩 N.V.(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>)의 실적 발표로 와만하게 시작되었다. 이 회사의 주가는 약한 3분기 전망과 중국 칩 금지를 둘러싼 지정학적 우려로 인해 약 16% 하락했다. 넷플릭스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>)의 지침은 투자자들을 실망시켰지만 증권사 측 분석가들이 결과에 열광하면서 주가는 크게 하락하지 않았다.
투자자들은 뱅크 오브 아메리카(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>), 모건 스탠리(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) 및 골드만삭스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) 등 나머지 대형 은행들의 실적 보고서에 환호했다. 투자 은행 사업의 반등과 강력한 트레이딩 매출이 은행들의 매출을 강화하는 데 도움이 되었다.
팩트셋(FactSet)의 최신 실적 전망 조사 <a href="https://advantage.factset.com/hubfs/Website/Resources%20Section/Research%20Desk/Earnings%20Insight/EarningsInsight_071924.pdf">보고서</a>에 따르면 이들 기업 중 80%가 예상보다 높은 주당 이익을 보고했는데, 이는 5년 평균인 77%와 비교된다. 평균 상승 여력은 약 5.5%이지만, 이는 5년 평균 상승률 8.6%보다 낮다.
관련 정보: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-tech-stocks">지금 가장 핫한 기술주</a>
실적 트렌드: 팩트셋에 따르면 S&amp;P 500 기업들의 2분기 혼합 실적 증가율은 현재 9.7%로 전주의 9.1%보다 높아진 것으로 추정된다. 이 추정치가 달성되면 분기 실제 성장률은 2021년 4분기 이후 보고된 전년 동기 대비 가장 높은 성장률을 기록할 것이라고 덧붙였다. 2분기 역시 4분기 연속 성장을 기록할 것으로 보인다.
S&amp;P 500 11개 부문 중 8개 부문이 전년 동기 대비 실적 성장을 기록할 것으로 예상되며, 그 중 통신 서비스, 의료, IT, 금융 부문 4개 부문이 두 자릿수 실적 성장을 기록할 가능성이 높다. 반면, 소재 업종을 중심으로 3개 업종의 실적 감소가 예상된다.
이번 주의 이슈: 이번 주에는 다우 30 지수 구성요소 7개를 포함해 S&amp;P 500 기업 138개 기업들의 실적 보고서가 나올 것이라고 팩트셋의 보고서가 밝혔다. 이번 주의 실적 발표 목록에는 통신, 자동차, 철강, 칩, 주택 건설, 방위, 항공 및 기술 산업의 기업들이 포함된다.
테슬라(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)와 알파벳(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>)은 S&amp;P 500과 나스닥 지수에서 높은 비중을 차지하고 있어 주목받는 기업들 중 하나이다. 테슬라는 전년 동기 대비 주당 순이익이 91센트에서 62센트로 급격히 감소할 것으로 예상되는 반면, 매출은 훨씬 완만하게 0.80% 감소한 247억 3천만 달러를 기록했을 수 있다. 이 이익성에 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것은 일론 머스크의 회사가 어려운 수요 환경에서 생산량을 늘리기 위해 의존해 온 가격 인하에서 비롯된다.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/07/39810457/as-tesla-stock-bounces-back-fund-manager-says-elon-musk-led-company-offers-good-set">분석가들과 펀드 매니저들은</a> 회사가 해당 분기에 양호한 납품 실적을 보고한 후 낙관적이다. 하반기에도 반전이 있을 것으로 예상된다.
알파벳의 실적은 AI를 활용한 거대 기업들 중 최초로 분기별 실적을 발표하는 기업이기 때문에 중요하며, 이는 나머지 기업들의 실적 속도를 정할 수 있다.
지난주 주요 지수가 사상 최고치에서 후퇴하면서 주식시장이 큰 타격을 입었다. Benzinga Pro 데이터에 따르면 나스닥 100 지수의 성과를 추적하는 지수인 Invesco QQQ Trust(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>)는 금요일 0.89% 하락한 475.24달러에 마감했다. 이 ETF는 7월 10일에 도달한 502.96달러의 사상 최고치보다 낮게 거래되고 있다. SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>)도 금요일 0.66% 하락한 548.99달러로 마감했다.
이번 주 주목할 만한 실적 발표 기업은 다음과 같다:
