On Tuesday, Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPIX#NASDAQ">CPIX</a>) released topline results from its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n43459112/cumberland-pharmaceuticals-announces-breakthrough-results-from-the-phase-2-fight-dmd-trial-in-duch" rel="noreferrer noopener">Phase 2 FIGHT DMD trial</a>.
The study evaluated ifetroban, a novel oral therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) heart disease – the leading cause of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CPIX" rel="noreferrer noopener">death in DMD patients</a>.
DMD is a rare and incurable pediatric disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding dystrophin, a protein critical for muscle function, including the heart.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42419338/why-is-cumberland-pharmaceuticals-stock-trading-over-100-on-tuesday" rel="noreferrer noopener">Why Is Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Stock Trading Over 100% on Tuesday?</a>
Patients with DMD slowly lose muscle function, resulting in the inability to walk, difficulty breathing, and heart failure.
The trial enrolled 41 patients who received either low-dose ifetroban (150 mg per day), high-dose ifetroban (300 mg per day), or placebo.
The study&#8217;s primary endpoint was an improvement in the heart&#8217;s left ventricular ejection fractions (LVEF), a key indicator of how well the heart is pumping blood.&nbsp;
Key findings include:
<ul>
<li>High-dose ifetroban treatment resulted in an overall 3.3% improvement in LVEF.</li>
<li>The high-dose ifetroban group showed an increase in 1.8% in LVEF, while the study placebo group showed an expected decline in LVEF of 1.5%</li>
<li>The difference was even more pronounced when compared with propensity-matched natural history controls, with the high-dose treatment providing a significant 5.4% overall improvement in LVEF, while the control patients experienced a 3.6% decline.</li>
<li>Both doses of ifetroban were well-tolerated, with no serious drug-related events.</li>
</ul>
Ifetroban has received both&nbsp;Orphan Drug Designation&nbsp;and&nbsp;Rare Pediatric Disease Designation&nbsp;from the FDA. If approved, ifetroban would be the first therapy specifically indicated for DMD-related heart disease.
Price Action: CPIX stock is up 23.01% at $2.62 at the last check Tuesday.

Market Whales and Their Recent Bets on UPST Options

Retirement is the time when work takes a backseat, and the focus shifts to enjoying life's quieter moments. You might expect net worth to decline once <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41127976/are-you-a-rich-retiree-heres-the-net-worth-and-income-you-need-to-be-in-the-top-10">retirees start dipping into their savings</a>, but here's the twist: for many retirees, net worth doesn't just hold steady—it grows.
Recent data shows a surprising trend. The average retiree's net worth not only remains solid but actually sees a noticeable increase, especially in the early years of retirement.
Retiree Net Worth by the Numbers
For retirees aged 65 to 74, the average net worth is an impressive $1,794,600, while the median net worth sits at $409,900. The gap between these figures highlights the role of wealth inequality—while some retirees have considerable assets, others don't have nearly as much, pulling the median lower.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
<li><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/gbr-savings-by-age">If You're Age 35, 50, or 60: Here&#8217;s How Much You Should Have Saved Vs. Invested By Now</a></li>
</ul>
As retirees age, the numbers remain striking. For those 75 and older, the average net worth is around $1,624,100, with a median net worth of $335,600. Even as seniors begin drawing from their savings, many still maintain a solid financial cushion.
Why Does Net Worth Grow After Retirement?
The idea of net worth growing during retirement might seem counterintuitive, but several factors contribute to this trend:
<ul>
<li>Reduced Expenses: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/39866450/the-average-retiree-spends-over-52-000-a-year-and-75-of-that-goes-to-just-five-expenses-how-does">Retirees often spend less</a>, especially on work-related costs like commuting, professional attire, or meals on the go. This reduced spending allows savings and investments to stretch further.</li>
<li>Reliable Income Sources: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42850946/planning-your-retirement-new-changes-to-social-security-in-2025-could-affect-you">Social Security and pensions</a> provide steady income, while many retirees benefit from appreciating assets, such as home values and investments.</li>
<li>Healthcare Costs Stabilize: Medicare kicks in at 65, easing the financial burden of healthcare for many retirees, though individual costs may still vary.</li>
</ul>
These factors combined help retirees grow or maintain their wealth, even as they transition into their post-work years.

The Wealth Gap: Gender Differences in Retirement
While average figures paint a rosy picture, not everyone's retirement story looks the same. A glaring wealth gap persists, particularly between men and women. Here are some statistics from the U.S. Department of Labor:
<ul>
<li>Women aged 50 and older have about $0.77 in wealth for every dollar held by men.</li>
<li>The median retirement savings for women is $43,000, less than half of men's $91,000.</li>
<li>Only 22% of women have saved $100,000 or more for retirement, compared with 30% of men.</li>
<li>Meanwhile, 25% of women report saving less than $10,000—or nothing at all—compared with 16% of men.</li>
</ul>
Trending: The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?
Key Takeaways for Retirees
The disparity in net worth shows the importance of financial planning, especially as retirement nears. For retirees who plan carefully, there's a strong chance of maintaining or even growing their net worth, thanks to a mix of lower expenses, stable income, and strategic investing.
At the same time, gaps in wealth and savings point to the need for better retirement strategies, particularly for women, who tend to face unique financial challenges. Addressing these gaps could help ensure a more secure and equitable retirement for everyone.

Planning for a Secure and Rewarding Retirement
Retirement isn't just the end of a career—it's a chance to watch your hard work and financial discipline come to life. Whether you're just starting to save or you're already looking ahead to life after work, these trends show that a stable, even growing, net worth is possible with the right approach.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Consulting a financial advisor</a> can make a big difference, helping you tailor a plan that fits your goals and ensures you're making the most of your resources.
Retirement doesn't have to mean cutting back—it can mean thriving. With the right guidance and effort, those golden years can shine brighter than you'd ever imagined.

Can You Guess The Average Retiree's Net Worth? Surprisingly, It Tends To Skyrocket During Retirement

SNOW

UPDATE: Article "Snowflake In Talks To Acquire Analytics Startup Redpanda", Was Reported January 29, 2025

U.S. stocks advanced midday Tuesday, demonstrating resilience despite escalating geopolitical tensions and trade uncertainties between the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">world&#8217;s two largest economies.</a>
China responded to President Donald Trump&#8216;s 10% import tariff with targeted countermeasures, including restrictions on key mineral exports to the U.S. and tariffs on American energy products.
Beijing is raising tariffs by 10%-15% on select U.S. imports, including coal, liquefied natural gas, crude oil, agricultural machinery and vehicles. Additionally, China added PVH Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PVH#NYSE">PVH</a>) and Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ILMN#NASDAQ">ILMN</a>) to its &#8220;Unreliable Entity List,&#8221; citing the need to &#8220;safeguard national sovereignty, security, and development interests,&#8221; and opened an antitrust investigation on Alphabet Inc. (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>).
Market participants had anticipated a call between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday, but media reports indicated the conversation would not happen today.
The trade developments had an immediate impact on oil markets, with West Texas Intermediate crude futures plunging 3% overnight to as low as $70 per barrel. 
Yet, prices rebounded sharply Tuesday morning following reports that Trump is considering issuing a memorandum aimed at inflicting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/02/43469234/trump-prepares-maximum-pressure-on-iran-oil-jumps-above-73-energy-stocks-rally">maximum economic damage on Iran</a>, potentially leading to a sharp decline in Iranian oil production.
Energy stocks outperformed on the day, while utilities lagged. 
Among individual stocks, Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) rocketed 22% after posting strong earnings and a revenue beat. 
In the commodities market, gold added more than 1%, extending its all-time high, and silver jumped 2.2%. Meanwhile, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) declined 2% to $99,000.

<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 S&amp;P Global 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 S&amp;P Global'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>, S&amp;P Global's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.28%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
