During an episode of The Ramsey Show, a woman sought advice from financial expert Dave Ramsey on how to deal with her mother&#8217;s financial situation and her siblings&#8217; irresponsible behavior.
What Happened: On the July 18 episode of The Ramsey Show, a woman named Katie shared her family&#8217;s financial situation. Her mother, who was widowed in 2013, was left with a significant amount of debt after her father&#8217;s passing.
Despite having around $100,000 left from selling her home and receiving $2,000 in Social Security, Katie's mother has been quietly supporting another daughter who refuses to work more than two days a week to retain government aid.
&#8220;We feel, my husband and I feel that we are supporting her financially and finding out that we have siblings who are taking advantage of her financially,&#8221; the woman said.
Ramsey didn't hold back, calling the dependent sibling a "parasite" and warning Katie that her mother's financial missteps would soon fall on her.
She's going to burn through that $100,000 supporting the parasites, he said. "Then you&#8217;re going to be stuck with a mom in the house, and you&#8217;re going to be caring for your mom, and she&#8217;s going to have social security checks off.&#8221;
 "Enabling always harms the recipient," Ramsey said.
Dave Ramsey advised that, for the sake of your peace of mind, you'll likely need to take two key steps. First, accept the reality of the situation and make peace with it.
Second, have a clear, calm, and direct conversation with your mother about her behavior and firmly tell her it needs to stop.

In another episode, a woman discovered <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/25/07/46712325/north-carolina-woman-discovers-boyfriends-80000-secret-debt-after-10-years-the-ramsey-show-urges-her-to-walk-away">her boyfriend&#8217;s $80,000 secret debt</a> after a decade-long relationship and turned to The Ramsey Show for urgent advice.

Dave Ramsey Slams 'Parasite' Sister As Woman Reveals Financial Nightmare: Mother Burns Through Nest Egg To Support Jobless Daughter

Patient Baseline and Actual Treatment Situation The interim study collected information on 178 people living with early AD from nine US medical centers using a standardized case report format. The disease stage of the patients at baseline was mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD in 57.6% and mild AD in 42.4%. The average age of the patients was 74.2 (±6.6) years, and the ratio of men to women was 44.6 to 55.4.
The mean duration of lecanemab treatment was 375.4 days (± 182.8 days). The mean time from diagnosis to first treatment was 224.2 days (± 295.4 days) and the mean number of lecanemab treatments was 24.8 (± 11.5). At the time of case reporting, 87.4% of patients (152 patients) were continuing treatment with lecanemab. Adverse events leading to discontinuation of treatment included ARIA-E (ARIA-edema/exudation) in two patients (1.1%), ARIA-H (ARIA-cerebral microbleeds, cerebral hemorrhage and superficial hemosiderin deposition) in two patients (1.1%), and concomitant ARIA-E and ARIA-H in one patient (0.6%). Three patients (1.7%) discontinued due to adverse events other than ARIA. In addition, 11 patients (6.3%) reported discontinuing the treatment for personal reasons or at the discretion of their doctor or the individual.
In this study, 83.6% of patients either remained at the same clinical stage or improved from mild dementia to MCI (stable: 76.9%, improvement: 6.7%). Additionally, at time of interim data cut, 86.7% of patients who had received 40 or more doses over 18 months remained stable or showed clinical improvement (stable: 66.7%, improvement: 20.0%:).
Of the 178 patients, ARIA was observed in 23 (12.9%). 14 (7.9%) were observed to have ARIA-E, of which 12 (6.7%) were asymptomatic. ARIA-H was present in 11 patients (6.2%), all of whom were asymptomatic. Infusion reactions were observed in four patients (2.2%). Additionally, no serious bleeding events or deaths were reported.
Impact of APOE4 Status Of the 178 patients in this study, 12 were excluded with unknown status. Among the remaining 166 patients, 30 (18.1%) were APOE ε4 homozygotes, 84 (49.4%) were heterozygotes, 54 (32.5%) were non-carriers. Generally, the proportion of homozygotes among people with AD is thought to be 15% or more.
The incidence of ARIA was 20.0%, 9.8% and 14.8% in homozygous carriers, heterozygous carriers and non-carriers, respectively (45.0%, 19.0% and 13.0% respectively in the Phase 3 Clarity AD 18-month core study). The incidence rate of ARIA-E and ARIA-H were 13.3% and 10.0%, respectively (32.6% and 39.0% in the Clarity AD core study), which is within the FDA-approved label range. The majority of ARIA cases (0.13%) were asymptomatic. The incidence of adverse events leading to discontinuation was 16.7% in homozygous carriers, 2.4% in heterozygous carriers and 5.6% in non-carriers.
73.3% of homozygote patients' clinical stage remained stable or improved (stable: 66.6%, improved: 6.7%), 88.0% of heterozygotes patients' clinical stage remained stable or improved (stable: 83.0%, improved: 4.9%) and 85.2% of non-carrier patients' clinical stage remained stable or improved (stable: 75.9%, improved: 9.3%).
Utilization of Blood-Based Biomarkers (BBMs) BBMs are being developed in AD to identify brain Aβ pathology and are intended for use in prescreening (triage) and confirmatory diagnosis. Of the 178 patients in this study, 49 patients (27.5%) were diagnosed using BBMs. In some of these cases (11 patients, 6.1%), it was also used for confirmatory diagnosis. Data collected from clinical practices showed the volume of tests doubling every 4 to 8 months, with BBMs using p-tau217 growing most rapidly.
Satisfaction with Lecanemab Treatment The results of a physician, patient and care partner lecanemab satisfaction survey was presented. The survey was based on questionnaires and interviews with nine U.S. physicians and evaluated treatment from multiple perspectives, including efficacy, safety and quality of life (QOL).
In the physicians' evaluation, the average satisfaction level for the treatment efficacy and safety (out of 10) was 8.7. The scoring criteria included: cognition 8.1, daily function 8.1, behavioral/neuropsychiatric symptoms 7.9 and QOL 8.0. The satisfaction level of the patients as assessed by physicians was 8.8, and that of the care partners was 8.2. These results highlight the favorable evaluation of lecanemab's efficacy and safety in real-world clinical practice and reinforce its therapeutic value.

Lam Research Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>) is trending on Thursday, following the announcement of its second-quarter financial report.
Check out how <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LRCX">LRCX stock is trading here</a>.
What Happened: Lam Research witnessed a 5.55% drop to $93.59 during pre-market trading on Thursday. This occurred despite the company&#8217;s strong financial performance in the second quarter.
The California-based semiconductor manufacturing company had announced its financial results on Wednesday for the quarter, which ended on June 29.
Lam Research reported $5.17 billion in revenue, with a GAAP gross margin of 50.1% and an operating margin of 33.7%.

&#8220;Lam delivered another solid quarter, highlighted by strong gross margins and record EPS,&#8221; said Tim Archer, President and Chief Executive Officer, Lam Research.
Why It Matters: Despite Lam Research's solid second-quarter performance, shares may be slipping due to a cautious third-quarter outlook. The company expects flat revenue around $5.2 billion and earnings per share of just $1.20, with little sequential growth.&nbsp;
Margins are also expected to remain steady, with Lam forecasting gross and operating margins close to recent levels, showing little change from the previous quarter.
Price Action: According to the&nbsp; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LRCX">Benzinga Pro</a> data, after gaining 0.15%, Lam's stock closed at $99.09 during regular trading hours on Wednesday. The stock's trading range has been between $56.32 and $102.59 over the past year.
With a strong Momentum in the 79th percentile, Benzinga&#8217;s Edge Stock Rankings indicate that LRCX has a positive trend across all time frames. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Know how</a> its momentum lines up with the other semiconductor manufacturers.

Former House Speaker, Rep.&nbsp;Nancy Pelosi&nbsp;(D-Calif.), voiced her support for legislation to ban Congressional stock trading, which was up until recently named after her, called the PELOSI Act. 
What Happened: In a statement on Wednesday, Pelosi came out in support of the bill, now called &#8220;The HONEST Act,&#8221; saying that &#8220;If legislation is advanced to help restore trust in government and ensure that those in power are held to the highest ethical standards, then I am proud to support it,&#8221; according <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5428773-pelosi-endorses-stock-trading-ban/">to</a> The Hill.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46620387/marjorie-taylor-greene-increases-these-2-stocks-in-portfolio-including-this-ai-name-up-over-100-ytd">Marjorie Taylor Greene Increases These 2 Stocks In Portfolio, Including This AI Name Up Over 100% YTD</a>
She further adds that she will come out in support of the bill, &#8220;no matter what they decide to name,&#8221; referring to the fact that the legislation was dubbed the PELOSI Act, up until recently, which stood for Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments.
This was a jab at Pelosi&#8217;s husband, venture capitalist Paul Pelosi, and his high-profile stock trades, which have led to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46043373/nancy-pelosis-portfolio-crushed-wall-street-hedge-funds-with-jaw-dropping-returns-last-year">a significant increase</a> in their combined net worth over the years. 
The name of the proposal introduced by Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) was changed after it became a bipartisan effort, with Hawley working with Democrats to include not just lawmakers, but also Presidents and Vice Presidents. 
Pelosi said in her statement that she appreciates the creativity of her Republican colleagues in drafting legislative acronyms, while adding that she welcomes &#8220;any serious effort to raise ethical standards in public service.&#8221; 
Why It Matters: The combined net worth of the Pelosis is estimated at $413 million, up from a possible $370 million in 2024, with a significant portion of their wealth coming from a substantial stock portfolio and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46043373/nancy-pelosis-portfolio-crushed-wall-street-hedge-funds-with-jaw-dropping-returns-last-year">well-timed trades</a>, according to the New York Post.
A prominent example of the couple&#8217;s stock trade involves the sale of 5,000 shares in Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) shortly before the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announced an antitrust investigation into the company. 
It&#8217;s been reported that Pelosi's&nbsp;portfolio gained 65% in 2023 and&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.com/news/25/01/42882348/nancy-pelosi-outperformed-nearly-every-hedge-fund-in-2024-even-beating-the-infamous-inverse-cramer-stock-tracker" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">54% in 2024</a>, leaving several leading hedge fund performances in the dust. 
Besides her, however, several other active traders in Congress have delivered next-level returns over the years, ranging from <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/01/42860759/10-best-stock-traders-in-congress-in-2024-where-do-nancy-pelosi-pete-sessions-susan-collins-marjorie-taylor-greene-rank">70% to 149%</a>, amid growing calls for a ban.

<li>Clinical trials of lecanemab SC were conducted as a sub-study of the open-label extension (OLE) following the core Phase 3 Clarity AD study in individuals with early AD, to evaluate a range of doses administered by SC vial or autoinjector. Eisai has developed a SC-AI for maintenance therapy at a dose of 360 mg weekly and a500 mg SC-AI is being developed for initiation dosing. Similar Impact on Clinical Outcomes and Biomarkers with IV and SC Dosing The pharmacology (PK/PD), clinical (efficacy endpoints such as CDR-SB) and biomarker (amyloid PET and blood biomarkers) relationships established with extensive clinical data supported the FDA approval of IV maintenance therapy after the initial 18 months of treatment and support the investigational SC maintenance dose option. - Data supports that transitioning to a weekly 360 mg SC AI dose of lecanemab after 18 months of initiation dose (10 mg/kg IV biweekly) maintains clinical and biomarker benefits comparable to continued biweekly IV dosing. - Clinical and biomarker responses at 48 months with monthly IV maintenance dosing are similar to the responses with ongoing biweekly dosing whether patients are amyloid positive (&gt;30 CL) or negative (&lt;30 CL) at 18 months. - Data shows the 500 mg SC AI has equivalent exposure as the initial treatment regimen of 10mg/kg IV biweekly up to 18 months for amyloid removal, efficacy, and ARIA-E. Safety Matters The safety profile of 360 mg weekly SC maintenance dosing was shown to be consistent with that of IV maintenance therapy, with &lt;1% systemic injection/infusion reactions. Across all SC doses, the rate of systemic injection/infusion reactions is 1% compared to 26% with IV. The 360 mg SC maintenance dose was initiated after 18 months of IV treatment, beyond the high-risk period for ARIA. There were 0 cases of ARIA-E observed out of 49 treated with 360 mg SC weekly maintenance for a mean of 6 months. Study Participants Successfully Administered SC-AI and Found it Easy to Use To optimize the safe and effective use of SC autoinjector (SC-AI), additional studies were conducted, including a human factors (HF) study and a tolerability assessment of the device. The HF Study involved 110 participants (63 early AD patients, 32 care partners, and 15 healthcare professionals: HCPs) to assess the appropriate administration of lecanemab SC-AI. Overall, 95% (104/110) of participants successfully administered the maintenance dose. The Autoinjector Device Acceptability Study involved 126 participants (25 early AD patients, 50 care partners, and 51 HCPs), to evaluate the device's ease of use, convenience and feasibility of administration. As an interim outcome, over 95% of participants reported that the SC-AI is easy to administer. They were highly satisfied with it and had no concerns about administration, even at home. Furthermore, all patients responded that they welcomed the introduction of SC-AI. These studies and evaluations of lecanemab SC-AI have demonstrated that the investigational SC-AI offers efficacy and safety comparable to IV administration with the potential to reduce the incidence of infusion site adverse events. From the perspective of patients and care partners, benefits included the ability to use the device at home, shortening treatment time, and to continue treatment without having to worry about visiting an infusion center. From the perspective of HCPs, they reported that the device has the potential to provide a new option for patients who are benefiting from lecanemab to continue the treatment. The SC formulation has the potential to reduce medical preparation and administration time related to IV therapy. These factors suggest that the SC AI may play an important role in continuing treatment for early AD.</li>

Venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya highlighted energy constraints as the primary barrier to artificial intelligence expansion, responding to concerns about Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) facing infrastructure bottlenecks despite massive capital expenditure plans.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Energy Emerges as AI&#8217;s Greatest Challenge</h2>
Palihapitiya wrote on X Wednesday that &#8220;Energy is the big bottle neck for AI,&#8221; outlining systemic constraints facing the industry. The venture capitalist detailed how physical and software AI require fundamental recipe changes beyond ingredient modifications.
&#8220;We need infinite and marginally costless energy,&#8221; Palihapitiya stated, emphasizing solar plus storage as the only viable near-term solution given 12-17 month deployment timelines.

Chamath Palihapitiya Weighs In On Meta's AI Ambitions As Energy Bottlenecks Emerge As The True Limiter

Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) is emerging as the dominant force in the rapidly expanding smart glasses market, powering designs for major players including Meta, Oakley, Ray-Ban, and Xiaomi.
Check out the stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/QCOM">price of QCOM over here</a>.
What Happened: This strong position has led Ray Wang, Research Director for Semiconductors at Futurum Group, to declare Qualcomm the &#8220;biggest beneficiary&#8221; for AI/smart glasses, asserting that their technology is the &#8220;best one for now.&#8221;
This strategic focus on next-generation personal AI devices, coupled with robust <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46737581/qualcomm-q3-earnings-double-beat-auto-revenue-hits-record">third-quarter 2025 earnings</a>, underscores Qualcomm&#8217;s successful diversification beyond traditional mobile chipsets.

While overall performance was strong, a key highlight from the earnings call transcript was the significant traction in the XR (Extended Reality) segment. Qualcomm&#8217;s Snapdragon platform is the preferred choice for smart glasses and mixed reality devices, boasting 19 designs from global partners.
The demand for Meta Platforms Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) AI smart glasses, in particular, has exceeded expectations, leading to an expanded portfolio with new Meta Oakley and Ray-Ban styles, all powered by Qualcomm&#8217;s Snapdragon AR1 Gen 1 platform. Xiaomi&#8217;s new AI glasses, also running on Snapdragon, have been well-received.
CEO Cristiano Amon emphasized the accelerated advancement of AI and generative AI, noting its role in redefining the mobile industry and fostering the emergence of new personal AI devices like smart watches, earbuds, and smart glasses.
These devices, he stated, are evolving independently of smartphones to provide unique personalized AI and agentic use cases, leveraging Snapdragon&#8217;s connectivity, power efficiency, and advanced sensing capabilities.

Why It Matters: Beyond smart glasses, Qualcomm&#8217;s diversification is evident in its strong Automotive and IoT segments, which saw year-over-year revenue increases of 21% and 24% respectively, in the third quarter. The company is targeting $22 billion in combined revenues from these sectors by 2029, reinforcing its long-term growth trajectory.
Furthermore, Qualcomm is making a significant push into the data center market, including the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/25/06/45832102/qualcomm-bets-2-4-billion-on-alphawave-to-power-ai-data-centers">acquisition of AlphaWave IP</a> and ongoing advanced discussions with a leading hyperscaler, with projected revenues in this new area commencing in fiscal 2028. 
The chipmaker reported better-than-expected <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46737581/qualcomm-q3-earnings-double-beat-auto-revenue-hits-record">third-quarter</a> revenue of $10.365 billion, up 10% year-over-year, beating the street consensus estimate of $10.333 billion. The earnings per share of $2.77 beat a consensus estimate of $2.71. 
However, its stock fell as the phone-related sales rose 7% to $6.33 billion, lower than the analyst estimate of $6.48 billion, according <a href="https://news.bloombergtax.com/international-trade/qualcomm-gives-upbeat-sales-outlook-in-positive-sign-for-phones">to</a> Bloomberg.
Price Action: QCOM shares slid 5.00% in after-hours on Wednesday. The stock was up 3.53% year-to-date and down 12.10% over the past year.
Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings indicate that QCOM maintains a weak momentum across the short, medium, and long term. However, the stock scores well on quality rankings. Additional performance details are available here.
