<p><strong>What To Know:</strong> On Monday, Altimmune <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/g45490287/altimmune-announces-initiation-of-reclaim-phase-2-trial-evaluating-the-efficacy-and-safety-of-pemv">announced</a> it has enrolled the first subject in its RECLAIM Phase 2 trial evaluating pemvidutide for Alcohol Use Disorder.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy ALT 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 Altimmune&#8217;s case, it is in the Health Care 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 Benzinga Pro, ALT has a 52-week high of $11.16 and a 52-week low of $3.55.</p>

Warby Parker (WRBY) Stock Explodes On Google Partnership: What's Going On?

<p><strong>BlackRock Inc.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLK#NYSE">BLK</a>), the world's largest asset manager, reaffirmed its view that U.S. assets remain central to global portfolios, even as Moody's recent U.S. credit downgrade and April&#8217;s synchronized drops in stocks, Treasuries and the dollar raised investor concerns <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/expert-ideas">about their long-term appeal</a>.</p>
<p>In a note shared Monday,<strong> Jean Boivin</strong>, head of the BlackRock Investment Institute, said the downgrade merely &#8220;reinforces the U.S. fiscal sustainability challenge&#8221; but does not alter the firm's core allocation strategy.</p>
<p>"We still see U.S. assets as core to portfolios," Boivin said, citing structural forces that keep the U.S. market at the heart of global capital allocation.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Why Does BlackRock Still Back U.S. Assets?</h3>
<p>The key reasons BlackRock continues to favor U.S. assets lie in the composition of the global capital system and the enduring dominance of U.S. companies, especially in the technology and artificial intelligence sectors.</p>
<p>Despite a policy-driven selloff that had dragged equities, Treasuries and the dollar down together, the S&amp;P 500 index – as tracked by the <strong>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) – rebounded 28% since its April lows. </p>
<p>BlackRock remains overweight on U.S. stocks on a 6- to 12-month tactical horizon.</p>
<p>Boivin rationalized his bullish view by citing "U.S. corporate strength and mega forces—big structural shifts like AI that are driving an economic transformation on a par with the Industrial Revolution."</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">BlackRock Expects Higher Term Premium</h3>
<p>BlackRock acknowledged growing investor concerns stemming from sticky inflation and widening fiscal deficits.</p>
<p>The firm said long-term U.S. Treasuries continue to offer a relatively low term premium—the extra yield investors demand for holding longer-term debt—despite mounting risks.</p>
<p>They said this premium needs to rise. "We have long argued that investors would want more term premium&#8230; given persistently large fiscal deficits, sticky inflation and bond volatility," the note said.</p>
<p>Boivin also emphasized that past instances of dollar weakness, term premium rises and policy uncertainty did not historically cause structural exits from U.S. assets, and today's dynamics remain similar.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">BlackRock&#8217;s Strategy At Time of Elevated Macro Uncertainties</h3>
<p>BlackRock is overweight inflation-linked bonds. The asset manager expects persistent inflation and sees opportunities in private markets, especially for infrastructure assets like airports and data centers.</p>
<p>The firm now builds portfolios around a flexible strategy, starting with the view that U.S. assets remain essential. </p>
<p>Despite rising debt risks and market volatility, BlackRock says the global system still depends on U.S. markets — and so should investors.</p>

US Assets Still Vital In Global Portfolios Despite Debt Downgrade: BlackRock

<p>Shares of Vaccine stocks are moving higher on Tuesday after documents from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration revealed that its advisers will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45524971/pfizer-stock-is-trading-higher-tuesday-whats-going-on">meet this week.</a></p>
<p><strong>What To Know:</strong> Advisers plan to discuss whether updated COVID-19 vaccines should target the LP.8.1 subvariant for the upcoming 2025-2026 vaccination cycle. The LP.8.1 strain, which stems from the previously dominant JN.1 variant, is now estimated to account for about 70% of U.S. COVID-19 cases based on recent CDC data. It has also been gaining traction globally, including in parts of Europe according to Reuters.</p>
<p>The FDA documents suggest that an update to the vaccine strain is under consideration due to the virus&#8217;s continued evolution. Other emerging variants like LF.7 and XFG are also being monitored but LP.8.1 is currently the most widespread.  Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech produce mRNA-based vaccines, while Novavax offers a protein-based alternative.</p>
<p>In a separate update, the FDA said new clinical trials would be required for annual COVID-19 boosters for healthy people under 65, effectively narrowing this fall's vaccine rollout to older adults and those with heightened risk. </p>
<p><strong>Price Action</strong>: Moderna shares were up 5.70% at $27.90 and BioNTech shares were up 3.63% at $101.36 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a></p>

<h3>Evaluating Palo Alto Networks P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
<p>The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. </p>
<p>Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of <strong>69.94</strong> in the Software industry, Palo Alto Networks Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of <strong>109.77</strong>. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Palo Alto Networks Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. </p>
<p>

<p>In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes. </p>
