Can the QQQ bull run continue? Play The Tech Trade With This Leveraged ETF

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, have long had the reputation of being relatively more stable investment opportunities. These funds aim to mirror the performance of a basket of equities or a specific index, which offers broad market exposure while reducing the risk associated with individual stocks. One of the ETFs that has been on the radar of investors lately is Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ: QQQ). QQQ tracks the performance of the Nasdaq-100 Index, which represents the 100 largest non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market. QQQ is best known for providing investors with exposure to companies at the forefront of innovation across various sectors, including technology, healthcare and communication services. Over the past year, QQQ has gained 45% and led all inflows in late January. Late January marked a 1.4% gain in assets, and assets under management now stand at around $246 billion. QQQ’s recent performance comes on the heels of the Federal Reserve’s announcement in December to keep interest rates at the current level, signaling a potential end to the central bank's cycle of rate hikes and a potential shift towards rate cuts in 2024. This decision reflects the Federal Reserve's response to more positive economic conditions and its efforts to support economic growth and stability. Lower interest rates historically stimulate increased borrowing and investment. While QQQ offers a basic solution to owning stocks in more established growth verticals, some ETFs like the AXS 2X Innovation ETF (NASDAQ: TARK) take a more targeted approach to investing in the companies of tomorrow. How is this accomplished? Quite simply, TARK provides two times daily exposure to the ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE: ARKK), which itself is a more concentrated portfolio of 35 growth equities. TARK gives you daily leveraged exposure to companies that are pioneers in disruptive technologies like next-gen internet, electric vehicles, genomics and fintech. These industries are growing at rapid paces and making big splashes. For example, fintech revenues are projected to grow sixfold and reach $1.5 trillion by 2030. Similarly, worldwide adoption of electric vehicles is fostering a steady annual growth rate within the industry. The global genomics market is expected to reach $83.1 billion by 2028. For investors who have doubted the strength of industries like virtual reality, the numbers don’t lie; the global virtual reality in the gaming market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 31% from 2023 to 2033. The broader gaming industry is even growing in unsuspecting markets; for example, the Middle East is reporting that 60% of the population considers themselves gaming enthusiasts. These industries are hitting home with a lot of younger audiences as well who are more technologically savvy. In 2023, TARK received the Best ETF Launch Award at the Benzinga 2023 Global Fintech Awards and is part of AXS Investments’ family of ETFs focused on a variety of exposures that surround the “Innovation Trade.” While QQQ is capturing the success of the present, ETFs like TARK look to capture the success of the future. In recent years, investors have witnessed an explosion of disruptive technology that has permeated various industries, reshaping the way we live, work and interact. The explosion of disruptive technology in key industries like transportation, health and finance has not only improved efficiency and convenience but has also created new economic opportunities and transformed entire ecosystems. In the coming decades, it seems evident that this trend will continue to accelerate. ETFs like TARK that are capitalizing on disruptive technologies could be poised to grow alongside these industries.

Longeveron (NASDAQ: LGVN) Making Inroads With Lomecel-B™ – Biotech’s Investigational Alzheimer’s Treatment Shows Positive Trial Results

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Longeveron Inc. (NASDAQ: LGVN), a clinical-stage biotech company aiming to slow the effects of life-threatening and chronic aging-related conditions using cellular therapies, is making inroads with Lomecel-B™, its investigational treatment for hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), Alzheimer’s disease and aging-related frailty. On October 5th, the Miami-based biotech announced that Lomecel-B™ met its primary safety endpoint and showed a lack of deterioration in cognitive or atrophy signals in approximately 50 patients aged 60 to 85 years old with mild Alzheimer’s disease, marking a major milestone for the company. The successful trial paves the way for more clinical studies of this potentially game-changing treatment. “We believe these results provide important validation of both the safety and therapeutic potential of Lomecel-B™ in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease and provide a robust foundation for additional clinical trials in this and other indications,” Wa’el Hashad, CEO of Longeveron, said announcing the trial results. In late December, the company released additional new clinical and biomarker results from the trial that reinforced the earlier top-line findings. Additional analysis of cognitive function and daily living data showed favorable results with Lomecel-B™ over placebo. The drug was shown to slow and in some cases improve certain measurements of cognitive function (MoCA, MMSE). Funding Development In addition to reporting promising results for Lomecel-B™, in October 2023, Longeveron secured $4 million in gross proceeds before expenses from a round of equity financing. In late December, Longeveron closed a previously announced registered direct offering of 1.35 million shares priced at $1.62 per share, raising an additional $2.36 million in gross proceeds. Longeveron plans to use the net proceeds to fund the ongoing clinical and regulatory development of Lomecel-B™ and for capital expenditures, working capital, and general corporate purposes. The company reported that as of the end of the third quarter, it has enough existing cash and short-term investments to cover expenses and capital requirements into the first quarter of 2024. Investor Aspirations And Stock Trend Some investors are hopeful that Lomecel-B™ could possibly play a role in the future in treating Alzheimer’s disease, which affects about 6.7 million people 65 and older in the U.S. In 2023 alone, Alzheimer’s and other dementias will cost the U.S. $345 billion, according to the Alzheimer’s Association. By 2050, total payments for healthcare, long-term care and hospice for those with dementia are projected to reach nearly $1 trillion. Lomecel-B™ appears to target inflammation, and it is believed that inflammation plays a role in the onset and progression of Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers made this discovery after several studies showed that people who took anti-inflammatory drugs like Enbrel and Humira were as much as 50% less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease later in life. These discoveries have in part helped to spur a new class of investigational drugs that aim to treat and cure Alzheimer’s disease by targeting inflammation. Lomecel-B™ is made from medical signaling cells (MSCs) derived from the bone marrow of healthy adult donors. It is believed that these cells travel to sites of damage or inflammation in the body and promote cellular regeneration and repair. More Potential Catalysts On The Horizon? Lomecel-B™ as a potential treatment for Alzheimer’s isn’t the only possible catalyst on the horizon for Longeveron, and investors may want to watch for more to come. The therapeutic treatment is also in stage 2 trials to treat Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) and Aging-related frailty. HLHS is a rare pediatric congenital heart defect that affects about 1,000 babies in the U.S. annually. The left side of the heart fails to develop in patients with HLHS – leading to short-term mortality, delayed development and long-term organ failure. Lomecel-B™ is administered directly into the cardiac tissue of the right ventricle for HLHS patients. The goal is to improve cardiac function through the regenerative, pro-vascular and anti-inflammatory effects of MSCs. Results from a phase 1 ELPIS 1 trial showed 100% survival in Lomecel-B™-treated children at up to five years of age. Historically, children with HLHS have about 20% mortality by five years. The results were encouraging enough for Lomecel-B™ to be given the Rare Pediatric Disease Designation (RPD), Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) and Fast Track Designation from the FDA. A phase 2 trial in HLHS of 38 patients is currently underway. In August, the trial surpassed the 50% enrollment threshold. The company is also in a phase 2 trial of Lomecel-B™ to treat aging-related frailty, which is characterized by mobility disability, weakness, fatigue, weight loss, slowness and low activity. Its current phase 2 trial will include 45 patients in Japan, where nearly a third of the population is over 65. “With our Phase 2 ELPIS II trial in HLHS moving toward anticipated completion in 2024, and our Phase 2 program in Aging-related frailty progressing in Japan as well, we look forward to meaningful milestones in the near term and to fully realizing the therapeutic potential of Lomecel-B™,” said Hashad.

Each Year, More Than 200 Workers Die From Silicosis; Laser Photonics’ Innovative Technology Is Helping Make This A Thing Of The Past

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga While manufacturing is essential to our 21st-century world, it can present significant health risks to workers. As a responsible society, it is our duty to continually evaluate the methods we use to increase the safety and health of workers around the globe. One example of a health hazard of manufacturing is silicosis, a progressive and irreversible lung disease caused by the inhalation of crystalline silica dust. Historically, sandblasting has been the primary method for industrial cleaning in industries around the world. This process involves using high-pressure air to propel abrasive particles onto the surface of a material to remove coatings, corrosion or other contaminants. The projection of a high-velocity stream of abrasive particles often includes silica sand. Silica sand contains crystalline silica, the known cause of silicosis. Consequently, sandblasting has faced increasing criticism due to the health and safety issues it poses. When workers are exposed to airborne crystalline silica particles during sandblasting operations, they can inhale the dust, and it can settle deep into the lungs. Over time, this can lead to the development of silicosis. The disease can manifest in different forms, including acute, accelerated and chronic silicosis. Each year in the U.S., more than 200 workers die from this illness while hundreds more become disabled. Many workers with silicosis are only in their thirties and some are as young as 22 years old. To mitigate the risks associated with sandblasting in manufacturing, it is important to implement proper controls and protective measures like comprehensive exhaust ventilation. However, one company has been working to disrupt the blasting industry, which is set to grow to $12 billion by 2025 according to Reliable Research Reports. Through laser cleaning, industrial professionals eliminate waste disposal costs and problems while avoiding the risk of silicosis sandblasting can pose. Laser Photonics Corporation (NASDAQ: LASE) (“LPC”), a leading global industrial pioneer of laser systems, is known for its line of cutting-edge laser cleaning products. With its CDHR and FDA-certified CleanTech systems, LPC provides industry professionals with a laser-blasting solution for corrosion control, coating removal, pre-weld preparation, post-weld treatment, laser cleaning, surface conditioning and more. Laser Photonics’ CleanTech lasers are known for their advanced technology and safety features that contribute to the company’s reputation as a safer and more accurate option compared to other blasting methods. The CleanTech laser systems operate by concentrating a high-powered laser onto the targeted area for cleaning purposes, and LPC reports that this technology effectively eliminates substances such as rust, corrosion, residue and paint from different materials without causing any harm to the surface beneath. By harnessing the energy released during the laser cleaning process, contaminants are efficiently and precisely removed from substrates – protecting operators from the potential hazards of using harmful chemicals and substances. LPC has been continuing to expand its existing product line to better serve customers in various industries such as energy, nuclear, defense, maritime, shipbuilding and automotive. While manufacturing is essential to key industries, the health of workers is paramount to the sustained growth of manufacturing. Laser Photonics’s innovative technology puts workers first while elevating industry standards. Silicosis is a largely preventable disease, and LPC’s forward-thinking processes play a pivotal role in enhancing operator and environmental safety.

Cannara Biotech Q1 Results: Revenue, Net Income And Market Share Up, Quarter Also Marks Company’s First Export Sale

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga With the demand for high-quality, affordably priced cannabis growing in Canada, Cannara Biotech Inc.'s (OTCMKTS: LOVFF) investments seem to be paying off. The vertically integrated producer of premium-grade cannabis and derivative product offerings has used investment dollars to produce quality cannabis products and increase the number of growing zones. That has resulted in Montreal-based Cannara Biotech reporting record-setting revenue for its first quarter and forecast even more growth to come in 2024. For the first quarter ending November 30, 2023, Cannara posted net revenue of $19.5 million, an 89% year-over-year increase and net income of $2.1 million, up significantly from $2,954 in the year-ago first quarter. Meanwhile, gross profit before fair value adjustments of $7.9 million was up 98% from the year-ago first quarter and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of $5.2 million marked a 206% increase. “Our first quarter results are continued solid proof of Cannara's strong financial health and strategic approach to business operations,” Nicholas Sosiak, CFO of Cannara said when reporting quarterly results. ”We have seen impressive sales increases and a steady rise in adjusted EBITDA, net income and cash flow from operations, which sets a strong base for the rest of the year.” Quality Cannabis At An Affordable Price Since launching in 2017, Cannara Biotech has been focused on growing quality cannabis products and bringing them to the masses at an affordable price. The company operates two huge facilities spanning over 1,650,000 square feet in Quebec, where it churns out quality cannabis products en masse using its access to low-priced utilities in the province and lean operational structure to keep costs down. It then passes on those savings to its legions of customers. During the first quarter, the company produced from nine growing zones out of its Valleyfield Facility with a 10th growing zone added in January. All told, the company has increased its total production to about 33,500 kg of cannabis per year. That should be welcome news to its investors given sales of cannabis products in Canada are projected to grow at a CAGR of 13.4% between 2021 and 2030. Underscoring that demand, Cannara said it sold 1.34 million units across its three flagship brands during the first quarter, up 99% from the 675,000 units sold in the same period a year ago. Quarter-over-quarter units sold were up 11%. The variety of its product line is also increasing, which could drive sales further in 2024. During the quarter it increased its total national product portfolio of cannabis products by 60% to 155 SKUs from 97. It is innovating in new categories including infused pre-rolls, milled flower and budget-friendly vapes. Market Share Gains Along with an increase in sales during the quarter were market share gains, a key metric given it’s difficult to stand out in the market thanks to climates that make it hard to grow the product, regulatory hurdles and high start-up costs. In Quebec, Canada’s largest market for cannabis, Cannara is the fourth-largest licensed producer, controlling about 8.7% of the market as of the first quarter. In Ontario, it ranks as the ninth top producer and in Alberta, its market share has increased to 2.3% from 1.2% share in the year-earlier first quarter. In British Columbia, it's making inroads, with market share of just under 1%. The company is still at the beginning of its growth, with only 35% of its production capacity activated, and operates in only five main markets in Canada, resulting in many strategies in Cannara’s toolkit to potentially increase its revenues and market share quarter over quarter. Another milestone for Cannara during the first quarter: it completed its first intentional export sale of cannabis product to Israel. Not only does that showcase its ability to be an exporter, it highlights an additional potential revenue stream for the company. A Bright Future Ahead? Looking out to the remainder of 2024, the company plans to increase production capabilities and sales incentives, roll out new products including new formats, release new strains, increase market penetration and continue to post positive Adjusted EBITDA. It’s confident all of that should position it for solid results this year and beyond. "The first quarter of 2024 has been another significant period for Cannara, with record breaking net revenues of $19.5 million, an 89% increase from the comparative quarter in 2023, and an incredible net income surge,” Zohar Krivorot, President and Chief Executive Officer, said of the first quarter results. “As we build on this momentum in 2024, our roadmap is clear, continued execution with excellence, cost efficiencies and product innovation. This strategic expansion is not just about quantity, it is about deepening our market penetration by enriching our customers’ experience with high-quality products that stand out in the market. With a keen eye on evolving market trends and consumer preferences, we are committed to growing our market presence and product portfolio in a purposeful manner."

Tisdale Clean Energy To Begin Initial Phase One Drill Program at South Falcon East Uranium Project, Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan

Tisdale Clean Energy Corp.

Vancouver B.C. - TheNewswire - February 8, 2024 – TISDALE CLEAN ENERGY CORP. (“ Tisdale ” or the “ Company ”) (TSXV:TCEC ) ( OTC: TCEFF ) ( FSE: T1KC ), is pleased to confirm its upcoming work program at the South Falcon East Uranium Project which hosts the Fraser Lakes B uranium deposit. The south Falcon East Project lies 18 km outside the edge of the Athabasca Basin, approximately 50 km east of the Key Lake uranium mill and former mine. Tisdale Clean Energy Corp entered into an option agreement with SkyHarbour Resources Ltd in October of 2022 whereby the company can earn up to a 75% interest in the South Falcon East property. The Company is set to begin a preliminary phase one drill program for late winter 2024. The initial phase one program will consist of up to approximately 1,500 meters of drilling. The priority will be to confirm and expand the existing mineralization associated with the Fraser Lakes B Uranium Deposit (Figure 2). Infill drilling will confirm the presence and continuity of existing mineralization in preparation for a current updated resource estimate and 3D model in the future. Step out drilling will endeavor to expand the footprint of the deposit, as the current mineralization is open in all directions. Initial focus will be in extending mineralization along strike and down dip into the basement. A secondary priority will be to begin regional exploration by following up promising anomalies located in the T-Bone Lake area (Figure 2). Regional drilling will focus on the effort to add additional mineralized zones and deposits along the folded structural package that hosts the Fraser Lakes B Deposit. “The commencement of drilling is a milestone in terms of our ability to unlock the value contained at South Falcon,” said Alex Klenman, CEO. “Right now, nobody is getting much credit for those pounds in the ground. This will begin to change as we drill and earn our interest in the project. The initial phase one plan allows us to meet the early obligations of the earn-in with Skyharbour. We are hopeful our valuation will grow as a result, therefore reducing the barrier to entry for institutional support and giving us the opportunity to implement larger drill programs moving forward through 2024 and beyond. “We believe very strongly that both the size and average grade of the resource can be increased. The last holes drilled in 2015 generated U308 values of.172% and.165% over intervals of two meters or more. These results established that higher grade uranium exists within the deposit. We have a very compelling exploration narrative, and one we feel confident in pursuing. No doubt the first steps are the hardest, and we’re pleased we’re able to begin to execute on the plan,” continued Mr. Klenman. “We are thrilled to have Tisdale commence their inaugural drill program at South Falcon East,” said Jordan Trimble, CEO of Skyharbour Resources. “The project is an advanced-stage exploration asset that hosts a near-surface uranium resource with strong expansion potential as well as robust discovery upside potential regionally on the property. We are confident that this winter drill program will unlock further value for both companies’ shareholders with the uranium price trading near sixteen-year highs,” continued Mr. Trimble. The field program is anticipated to commence in late February and will be executed by Terralogic Exploration Inc. under the supervision of Laura Tennent, Project Manager with TerraLogic Exploration, and C.
