nder normal market conditions, the Fund, which is an actively managed exchange traded fund or ETF, will primarily invest in the equity securities of companies that the Adviser believes to be best positioned to take advantage of or profit from emerging technological or social trends or developments. As part of the investment process, the Adviser seeks to identify potential opportunities created by changes in technology, consumer preferences, demographics, regulatory, environmental and supply/demand dynamics that unfold over long periods of time (secular trends) and the companies that can significantly benefit and profit from such trends. Through a proprietary research driven process, the Adviser then analyzes those companies across sectors and secular trends or themes (e.g., green energy, online shopping or cybersecurity) to try to identify for investment those companies it believes to be thematic winners (companies that the Adviser believes can benefit from positive secular trends or themes) with reasonable valuations.

U.S. Justice Department Seeks To Unwind Google's Anthropic Deal

Conduit Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CDT#NASDAQ">CDT</a>) shares are trading higher Thursday after the company announced that the Japan Patent Office granted a composition of matter patent for its lead asset, AZD1656. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CDT/news">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: AZD1656 is a glucokinase activator designed to target a range of autoimmune disorders. The patent approval in Japan comes after a similar patent was granted in Australia, marking continued progress in securing intellectual property protections for the company&#8217;s assets.
&#8220;This approval represents another significant milestone in our efforts to maximize the value of our intellectual property portfolio,&#8221; said David Tapolczay, CEO of Conduit Pharmaceuticals.

 AZD1656 is part of Conduit&#8217;s strategy to address unmet medical needs, particularly in diseases like Lupus and ANCA Vasculitis. Conduit Pharmaceuticals is also working on other assets, including AZD5658 and AZD5904, to expand its portfolio in the autoimmune space.
&#8220;The granting of this patent in Japan, one of the world&#8217;s largest pharmaceutical markets, underscores the strength of our scientific and intellectual property strategy. We look forward to securing additional approvals in other major markets, further enhancing our global patent coverage and bolstering our out-licensing opportunities,&#8221; Tapolczay added.
CDT Price Action: Conduit Pharmaceuticals shares were up 20.4% at 11 cents at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Oklo Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>) shares are trading higher on Thursday. The company&#8217;s shares may be moving higher in response to its acquisition target Atomic Alchemy which signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Zeno Power. Here&#8217;s what you <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42092578/oklo-stock-slides-as-short-seller-sets-sights-on-altman-backed-nuclear-startup">need to know</a>.
What To Know: The goal of the MOU is for Atomic Alchemy to provide Zeno Power with radioisotopes like strontium-90 and americium-241 to power Zeno&#8217;s Radioisotope Power Systems (RPSs).
These systems generate energy from the heat emitted by radioisotopes, powering critical applications such as space exploration and national defense.
&#8220;We are thrilled to be working with Atomic Alchemy and Oklo to advance our fuel supply chain efforts and recover radioisotopes that otherwise would be waste,&#8221; said Harsh S. Desai, Chief Commercialization Officer at Zeno Power. 
&#8220;This partnership aims to expand access to critical isotopes, accelerating our work to meet the growing demand for reliable, persistent energy solutions from the ocean floor to the lunar surface.&#8221;
Previously, Oklo has proposed to acquire Atomic through an all-stock transaction.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Virgin Galactic Hldgs's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Virgin Galactic Hldgs's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 6.16%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

Goldman Sachs analyst Michael Ng maintained a Buy rating on Comcast Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>) with a price target of $50.
On November 20, 2024, Comcast announced <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/42081224/comcast-plans-major-cable-networks-spinoff-msnbc-and-cnbc-to-form-new-public-company-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">plans to spin off</a> select cable networks and digital assets into a new publicly traded entity called SpinCo.
The proposed spin-off aims to streamline Comcast&#8217;s operations and enhance growth by separating its cable networks and complementary digital assets from its broader media and streaming divisions.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42116366/taiwan-semiconductor-plans-new-factories-annually-boosting-domestic-chip-production" rel="noreferrer noopener">Taiwan Semiconductor Plans New Factories To Boost Domestic Chip Production</a>
SpinCo assets generated approximately $7 billion in trailing twelve-month (TTM) revenue ending September 30, 2024, with an estimated EBITDA between $2 billion and $3 billion, the analyst said.
About 75% of SpinCo&#8217;s portfolio will focus on news and sports, while the remaining 25% covers general entertainment.
Comcast expects SpinCo to maintain a traditional cable network EBITDA margin of around 30%, driven by reduced Peacock-related losses and sports licensing costs.
Post-spin, Comcast&#8217;s remaining media assets (RemainCo) will include NBC broadcast, Peacock, regional sports networks, and Sky, generating an estimated $40 billion in annual revenue.
Peacock will likely remain largely unaffected by the spin, as only 2% of its content originates from SpinCo, while 98% will continue to come from RemainCo.
The spin-off positions SpinCo to pursue growth through organic initiatives and mergers or acquisitions, with a dedicated management team and tailored operational focus.
Mark Lazarus, the current chairman of NBCUniversal Media Group, will serve as SpinCo&#8217;s CEO, and Anand Kini, NBCUniversal&#8217;s CFO, will become SpinCo&#8217;s CFO and COO. Comcast expects the transaction to close within a year, pending regulatory approvals.
Ng highlighted the spin-off as a strategic move to refine Comcast&#8217;s focus on core growth drivers, including residential broadband, wireless services, and streaming.
SpinCo&#8217;s creation will likely improve CNBC and MSNBC monetization through digital subscription models and potential affiliate fee adjustments.
Ng views the separation as accretive to revenue growth while maintaining Comcast&#8217;s leverage neutrality.
Risks to the strategy include intensified cord-cutting, rising programming costs, and competitive pressures from streaming platforms.
Despite these challenges, Ng expects the spin-off to unlock shareholder value and position both SpinCo and RemainCo for sustainable growth.
Ng projected fiscal 2024 revenue of $123.42 billion and EPS of $4.24. The analyst estimates fiscal 2025 revenue of $123.43 billion and EPS of $4.43.
Price Action: CMCSA stock is up 1.59% at $43.68 at the last check on Thursday.

Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos,&nbsp;two of the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/41813356/elon-musks-net-worth-soars-by-26-5-billion-in-single-day-after-tesla-stock-surges-post-trump-vic" target="_blank" rel="noopener">world&#8217;s richest people,</a>&nbsp;entered a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42105450/elon-musk-says-amazon-founder-jeff-bezos-urged-tesla-spacex-investors-to-dump-stakes-predicting-trumps-loss">social media sparring</a> match on Thursday.
What Happened: The controversy began when Musk accused Bezos of urging &#8220;everyone&#8221; to sell shares of Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) ahead of the 2024 presidential election. Musk supported Donald Trump during the presidential stakes, contributing hundreds of millions of dollars to Trump&#8217;s election efforts.
&#8220;Just learned tonight at Mar-a-Lago that Jeff Bezos was telling everyone that @realDonaldTrump would lose for sure, so they should sell all their Tesla and SpaceX stock &#x1f92d;,&#8221; Musk <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1859483544612913376">posted</a> on his social media platform, X. The post garnered over 29 million views.
Bezos responded nearly nine hours later.
&#8220;Nope. 100% not true,&#8221; the Amazon founder succinctly <a href="https://x.com/JeffBezos/status/1859615862984167549">replied</a>. 
It is unclear whether the billionaire entrepreneur plans to pursue legal action against Musk.
Tesla&#8217;s stock has far outperformed the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) since <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/11/41768811/donald-trump-wins-47th-presidency-us-futures-up-europe-up-asia-mixed-crude-falls-and-dollar-strength">Trump&#8217;s election win</a> on Nov. 5. Tesla shares are trading up 35%, breaking the $1 trillion mark, while the benchmark has gained 2.97%.
Musk is the largest shareholder of Tesla. While Musk did not start the company, he has served as CEO since 2008.
Musk and Bezos&#8217; rivalry stretches decades. Musk is the principal shareholder of SpaceX while Bezos owns Blue Origin, two space exploration companies.

Jeff Bezos Denies Elon Musk's Allegation That He Told People To Sell Tesla Stock: '100% Not True'

SEC Chair Gensler resigns on Jan 20, 2025, ending his tough stance on crypto regulation. Trump plans to replace him due to concerns over stifling innovation.
Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler announced Thursday that he will resign Jan. 20, 2025, coinciding with the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump.
Gensler&#8217;s tenure has been marked by a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41993524/gary-gensler-hints-at-ending-his-stint-as-sec-chair-defends-crypto-regulation-agenda">stringent regulatory approach</a> toward cryptocurrencies, drawing criticism from the industry.
What Happened: "I thank President Biden for entrusting me with this incredible responsibility. The SEC has met our mission and enforced the law without fear or favor,&#8221; Gensler said in a press release on Thursday.
Appointed on Apr. 17 2021, Gensler brought extensive experience from his previous role as chair of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
 His leadership at the SEC was characterized by a firm stance on digital assets, emphasizing investor protection and market integrity.
Gensler frequently likened the cryptocurrency market to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/12/36358607/crypto-wild-west-hurts-investors-sec-chair-says-bankruptcy-court-queues-are-crowded">&#8220;Wild West,&#8221; advocating for comprehensive oversight</a>.

Justin Sun Did Just That — And Now He&#8217;ll Eat It &#8216;As Part Of This Unique Artistic Experience&#8217;</a>
He asserted that many digital assets functioned as securities and should be regulated accordingly. 
Under his direction, the SEC initiated numerous enforcement actions against major crypto entities, including lawsuits <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40568347/after-binance-and-coinbase-gary-gensler-led-sec-set-to-lock-horns-with-crypto-exchange-kra">against Coinbase</a> and Binance for allegedly operating unregistered securities exchanges.
This rigorous approach faced opposition from industry stakeholders and some lawmakers, who argued that it stifled innovation and lacked clear regulatory guidelines. 
In November, the American Securities Association <a href="https://www.americansecurities.org/post/asa-calls-on-sec-chair-gensler-to-immediately-step-down">called</a> for Gensler&#8217;s immediate resignation, citing concerns over his regulatory methods.
Trump has been vocal about his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41680397/who-will-replace-gary-gensler-the-top-candidates-for-sec-chair-after-the-election">intention to replace Gensler</a>, criticizing his handling of cryptocurrency regulation.
Earlier in July, Trump said, &#8220;I will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/07/40018935/trumps-bitcoin-conference-pledge-can-he-really-fire-sec-chair-gensler">fire Gary Gensler on day one</a>,&#8221; signaling a potential shift in the SEC&#8217;s approach to digital assets under the incoming administration.

Gary Gensler To Step Down As SEC Chair On Trump's Inauguration Day

KLA's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KLAC#NYSE">KLAC</a>) short percent of float has fallen 8.47% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.31 million shares sold short, which is 1.73% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.79 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for KLA has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing KLA's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, KLA's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.96%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
