Dutch semiconductor company, ASML Holding NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>), warned investors that its growth outlook for 2026 is now under a cloud, citing rising macroeconomic uncertainties and escalating trade tensions.

What Happened: During the company&#8217;s second quarter results on Wednesday, ASML&#8217;s CEO, Christophe Fouquet, said <a href="https://www.asml.com/en/news/press-releases/2025/q2-2025-financial-results">in</a> a statement, &#8220;while we still prepare for growth in 2026, we cannot confirm it at this stage,&#8221; citing growing uncertainties driven by macroeconomic and geopolitical developments.
He adds that the fundamentals of AMSL&#8217;s key AI customers remain strong, but acknowledges the growing threat of tariffs.

&#8220;Tariffs on new systems and parts going into the U.S., as well as reciprocal measures from other countries, could impact our gross margin,&#8221; Fouquet says.
The company, nonetheless, witnessed strong bookings during the quarter, at $6.4 billion, compared to consensus estimates at $5.6 billion, according <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-07-16/asml-orders-beat-expectations-after-ai-investment-fuels-demand">to</a> a report by Bloomberg. 
Its forecast for third quarter sales, however, estimated between $8.6 billion and $9.2 billion, fell short of analyst consensus estimates.
Why It Matters: While <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44631606/trumps-tariff-exemptions-include-semiconductors-pharmaceuticals-oil-and-more">semiconductors were exempt</a> from President Donald Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; tariffs, there is a lot of uncertainty surrounding chipmaking equipment. 
During its second quarter results, ASML posted $8.9 billion in sales, ahead of consensus estimates at $8.7 billion, with a profit of $2.66 billion, against estimates at $2.37 billion. 
Price Action: Shares of ASML were up 2.02% on Tuesday, trading at $823.02, but are now down 7.10% after hours, following its second quarter results.

Trump's Tariff Threat Casts Shadow Over ASML's 2026 Growth Plans, Despite Strong Q2, AI Momentum

Palantir (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>)&nbsp;has come under fire for its alleged involvement in aiding President Donald Trump&#8216;s immigration crackdown and the Israeli military. 
What Happened: On Monday, demonstrators in multiple U.S. cities, including New York, Seattle, and Palo Alto, protested against Palantir&#8217;s collaboration with ICE, which they claim is facilitating the Trump administration&#8217;s immigration crackdown. The company&#8217;s work with the Israeli military was also a point of contention,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.democracynow.org/2025/7/15/doge_20">reported</a>&nbsp;Democracy Now!.
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.com/quote/PLTR" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PLTR stock here</a>.
At least four people were arrested in New York after protesters blocked the entrance to Palantir&#8217;s Manhattan offices. The &#8220;Purge Palantir&#8221; campaign, as it&#8217;s called, is a response to the company&#8217;s data mining, surveillance, and automation tools being used against vulnerable communities.
According to Makena Kelly, a senior writer at Wired, Peter Thiel-backed Palantir and Anduril Industries, alongside several Silicon Valley firms, are capitalizing on the chaos created by the Trump administration&#8217;s cuts to government services and mass deportation efforts to gain lucrative contracts.
Protesters also criticized Palantir&#8217;s contracts with international organizations such as the World Food Programme, UNICEF, Team Rubicon and the CDC Foundation for 10 years, calling for the termination of these contracts due to Palantir&#8217;s alleged human rights violations.

Why It Matters: Palantir&#8217;s growing influence in the global AI space has been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst-color/25/07/46353542/palantir-next-oracle-trump-backed-ai-surge">bolstered </a>by strong government-backed initiatives like Project Stargate under the Trump administration. The company&#8217;s recent NATO contract further highlights its expanding role in the international defense and intelligence sectors.
However, the company&#8217;s growth has not been without controversy. Stephen Miller, the White House's deputy chief of staff and a key figure in shaping the Trump administration's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46090043/trump-advisor-stephen-miller-reportedly-holds-stake-worth-millions-in-ice-contractor-palantir-he-could-easily-have-a-direct-and-predictable-impact">stringent immigration</a> policies, reportedly owns a significant amount of stock in Palantir. This has raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest.
Despite the controversies, tech analyst Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities has expressed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/price-target/25/07/46339022/palantir-could-be-the-next-big-ai-winner-says-dan-ives-sees-12-pltr-stock-surge">confidence </a>in Palantir&#8217;s artificial intelligence strategy, predicting a 12% upside for the company&#8217;s stock over the next 12 months.

Aurora Mobile Limited (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JG#NASDAQ">JG</a>) ("Aurora Mobile" or the "Company"), a leading provider of customer engagement and marketing technology services in China, is set to benefit from the recent announcement by Nvidia regarding the resumption of H20 chip sales in China. This development comes at a crucial time for Aurora Mobile's AI agent platform, GPTBots.ai, which is experiencing rapid growth in the global market.

China's Aurora Mobile Poised for Growth With Nvidia's H20 Chips Back on the Market

Prices for new electric vehicles experienced a drop in June as President Donald Trump ended <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46289556/trumps-tax-bill-axes-the-7500-ev-credit-heres-how-you-can-still-claim-it">EV-related incentives</a> through the Big Beautiful Budget tax bill.
Check out the current price of<a href="https://benzinga.com/quote/tsla"> TSLA stock here</a>.
What Happened: Average Transaction Price or ATP for an EV in the U.S. fell to $56,910 in June, down from $57,236 in May, Electrek reported <a href="https://electrek.co/2025/07/15/ev-deals-are-heating-up-buyers-now-save-over-8k-on-average/">on</a> Tuesday, citing Kelley Blue Book data.
EV buyers also enjoyed more incentives, reaching a new record of 14.8% in June, saving over $8,400 on the Average Transaction Price for consumers. However, EV sales were down 6% YoY, with Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) falling over 12.6% YoY in the U.S. in Q2.
Tesla's YTD segment share remains at 44.7% as the brand continues to lead the all-electric vehicle market in the country despite poor sales figures. Tesla sold 143,535 vehicles in Q2.
Why It Matters: The news comes as Tesla has experienced some high-profile exits from the EV giant recently. The automaker's head of sales in North America, Troy Jones, left Elon Musk's company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/07/46426351/teslas-sales-turmoil-deepens-with-north-america-sales-chiefs-exit">following a 15-year stint</a>.
Jones's exit comes weeks after top Musk aide, Omead Afshar, also departed from Tesla, leading to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46214467/elon-musk-will-oversee-tesla-sales-in-the-us-europe-after-omead-afshars-exit-report">Musk assuming oversight</a> of company sales in the U.S. as well as Europe.
However, Musk's feud with Trump has put <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46337215/tesla-is-basically-hijacked-by-elon-musk-says-ross-gerber-calling-it-completely-ridiculous-america-party-is-the-worst-news-for-tsla">Tesla under fire</a>, with the company finally holding the annual shareholder meeting after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46335587/tesla-investors-call-for-shareholder-meeting-amid-elon-musk-trump-feud-declining-sales-report">pressure from investors</a> following Musk's political activities and dwindling Tesla sales.

EV Prices Drop 2.8% In June As Incentives Surge Amid Tumbling Tesla Sales

China has leveraged its dominance over rare earth elements to secure eased U.S. export controls on Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips; however, this expert says that the world isn&#8217;t decoupling, it is just bartering.
Check out the current price of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NVDA">NVDA stock here.</a>
What Happened: Economist Craig Shapiro, in a detailed X thread, declared, &#8220;China just outmaneuvered the U.S. — again. Rare earths for AI chips,&#8221; unveiling a backchannel deal that prioritizes resource barter over ideological standoffs.
The agreement, finalized after Donald Trump and Xi Jinping&#8216;s call and London trade talks, saw China fast-track rare earth export licenses, including dysprosium and terbium, under a six-month &#8220;green channel.&#8221;
In return, the U.S. relaxed restrictions on AI semiconductors and EDA software, allowing Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) to resume exports of modified chips to China.
Shapiro noted, &#8220;Nvidia's China revenue is far from gone,&#8221; signaling the tech giant's continued market presence despite earlier curbs.
Reuters and Bloomberg confirm military-grade restrictions remain, but civilian-use materials are back in play, reflecting a calculated trade-off.
Shapiro's analysis frames this as &#8220;classic realpolitik,&#8221; with China acting &#8220;like a central banker for the physical world. Not through money, but through minerals.&#8221;
He concludes, &#8220;The world is not decoupling. It's just bartering,&#8221; highlighting strategic interdependence. Investors are urged to monitor rare earth exposure and export control trends, as this deal reshapes global tech and mineral dynamics.

Nvidia's China Revenue 'Is Far From Gone', But It Outmaneuvered US For Rare Earth In Exchange For AI Chips, Says Craig Shapiro

Venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya says the next frontier in aviation safety is protecting passengers "from the pilots," urging regulators to accelerate cockpit automation and real‑time supervision systems.
What Happened: In a post on X, the Social Capital founder wrote that after decades spent shielding travelers from mechanical failures and hijackers, "the only risk that is left is pilot error or sabotage. We need more supervision/automation that protects the plane and passengers from the pilots. It's a narrow failure mode that is unrecoverable but totally avoidable."

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">From the invention of planes until the 1980s (or thereabouts) it was all about protecting the passengers and pilots from the plane itself.

Accident data support his first claim. The fatal crash rate for commercial jets has decreased by roughly 65% since 2005, as avionics and automated flight management systems have improved, according to the FAA and Boeing.

Palihapitiya also argues that hijacking fears have ebbed. Security historians concur.

Why It Matters: Palihapitiya&#8217;s call arrives days after the FAA and Boeing both insist the Boeing 787 Dreamliner's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/07/46384959/faa-boeing-say-fuel-switch-locks-on-787-dreamliner-are-safe-amid-air-india-crash-probe">fuel‑switch locks are safe</a>, releasing internal analyses that call the design sound and not in need of an airworthiness directive, even after preliminary findings linked last month's Air India crash in Ahmedabad to a fuel cutoff by one of the pilots.
India's Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau found that both engines on the Air India Boeing 787 lost power when their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/07/46380354/fuel-supply-was-cut-moments-before-air-india-crash-as-per-preliminary-report">fuel‑cutoff switches were flipped</a> from RUN to CUTOFF one second apart. Investigators say this fuel supply cut contributed to the crash that killed 260 people.
Human factors remain the chief cause of accidents, the International Air Transport Association's 2024 report notes. French Civil Aviation Safety Investigation Authority investigators found Germanwings Flight 9525's 2015 crash, which killed 150, stemmed from the co-pilot deliberately descending into the Alps. 
Similarly, suspected pilot error led to the crash of EgyptAir Flight 990 in 1999, which certain theories attributed to pilot suicide for the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 (MH370) in 2014.
Yet excessive automation can backfire. The 737 MAX crashes that killed 346 people in 2018‑19 were <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/09/28980123/sec-says-boeing-misled-investors-on-737-max-safety-to-pay-200m-to-settle-charges">tied to software</a> that overrode pilot commands, prompting fresh calls for better human‑machine balance.
The billionaire has previously touted driverless technology as a way to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45966113/tesla-crashes-significantly-lower-than-national-average-chamath-palihapitiya-weighs-in-on-why-its-the-ideal-choice-for-teenage-drivers">slash road deaths</a> and echoed that optimism for aviation.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, Speaking At The International Supply Chain Expo in Beijing Said The U.S. Government Is Processing The Licensing For The H20 Orders From Chinese Customers Now

Willis, a WTW business, (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WTW#NASDAQ">WTW</a>), today announced a new collaboration with the University of East Anglia (UEA) to deepen understanding of global wildfire risk. With wildfires now rivalling the losses caused by other perils such as hurricanes, this partnership aims to deliver credible scientific insight that helps insurers and reinsurers keep pace with a rapidly changing risk landscape.
Wildfires have intensified in recent years, becoming larger, more destructive, and increasingly unpredictable. Shifting climate conditions are expanding fire-prone areas beyond traditional hotspots and triggering more intense and destructive fires, while urban growth and rising property values are amplifying the potential for catastrophic loss. From insured losses amounting to US$1.5 billion during Australia's Black Summer bushfires in 2019-20 to the US$40 billion in damage caused by this year's Palisades and Eaton fires in Los Angeles, wildfires are no longer a secondary peril.
This collaboration will focus on helping the insurance sector understand the shifting nature of wildfire risk, including changes in fire frequency, intensity, geography, and the growing threat of urban conflagrations. By combining Willis' catastrophe risk expertise with the leading climate and fire science of Dr. Matthew Jones at UEA, the partnership will support clients in anticipating wildfire-related losses and responding with more informed risk strategies.

WTW Partners With University of East Anglia To Study Growing Global Wildfire Risk

Personal finance author and radio host Dave Ramsey has shared his views on investment strategies, advising against bonds and single stocks. He emphasized his preference for mutual funds as a safer and more lucrative option.
What Happened: Ramsey, in response to a question from a novice investor, Joseph, about his thoughts on bonds and other investment advice, dismissed the idea of bonds being a safer investment than stocks.
He pointed out that the bond market is almost as volatile as the stock market due to fluctuating interest rates, with less promising returns, as per a Ramsey Solutions report titled &#8220;Dave Says: Be the Tortoise,&#8221; which was posted <a href="https://www.ramseysolutions.com/company/newsroom/ramsey-syndication/Dave-Says--Be-the-Tortoise">on</a> Monday.
Ramsey, who has a substantial investment in the market, revealed that he does not own any bonds or single stocks due to the associated risks. Instead, he prefers mutual funds, which typically consist of 90-200 different stocks.
See Also: <a href="https://benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46429234/bitcoin-xrp-dogecoin-dip-but-ethereum-outperforms-after-inflation-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bitcoin, XRP, Dogecoin Dip But Ethereum Outperforms After Inflation Report</a>
He also highlighted the benefits of Health Savings Account (HSA) investments in mutual funds, emphasizing his long-term, buy-and-hold approach to investing.
He concluded by advising Joseph to adopt a slow and steady approach to investing, akin to the tortoise in the fable &#8220;The Tortoise and the Hare,&#8221; as this method consistently yields results.
&#8220;Keep this in the back of your mind, Joseph. If all your broke friends are impressed with your investing, chances are you're doing it wrong. Or at the very least, you could be doing a whole lot better,&#8221; Ramsey said.
Why It Matters: Ramsey&#8217;s investment advice aligns with the strategies of other prominent figures in the finance world. For instance, the legendary investor Warren Buffett has often emphasized the importance of long-term investment in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/25/05/45602754/warren-buffett-investment-success-3-simple-rules-to-copy-oracle-of-omaha">diversified stocks</a> for consistent returns. 
Similarly, former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci once experienced the power of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/45057119/anthony-scaramucci-once-purchased-1200-worth-of-microsoft-stock-for-his-son-in-1992-and-then-forgot-about-it-three-decades-later-it-quietly-turned-into-a-small-fortune-that-he-didn't-know-he-owned">long-term investing</a> when his forgotten investment in Microsoft Corporation stock turned into a substantial sum.
Ramsey&#8217;s advice also resonates with his previous statements on wealth-building. In a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43631283/its-your-own-fault-if-youre-25-and-dont-end-up-a-millionaire-warns-dave-ramsey-explains-how-even-40-year-olds-can-hit-1-million-by-60">social media post</a> in January 2025, he emphasized the simplicity of becoming a millionaire through consistent investing and reducing wasteful spending, even for those who start later in life.

Dave Ramsey Rejects Bonds And Stocks, Calls Mutual Funds Safer Bet: 'Be The Tortoise'

President Donald Trump has credited First Lady Melania Trump for influencing his tougher stance on the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
What Happened: During a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in the White House on Tuesday, Trump acknowledged Melania&#8217;s role in challenging his optimistic perspective on the Russia-Ukraine war. Trump shared instances where Melania had expressed skepticism after his phone calls with Putin. 
&#8220;I&nbsp;go home, I tell the&nbsp;first lady: I spoke with&nbsp;Vladimir today. We had a&nbsp;wonderful conversation. She said: Really?&nbsp;Another city was just hit,&#8221; Trump said.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<iframe loading="lazy" title="NEW: Trump reveals Melania&#039;s role in dealing with Putin" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SpvjANui62s?start=78&#038;feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
</figure>
While addressing the press at another instance, Trump reiterated, &#8220;There&#8217;s times I&#8217;d get home. I&#8217;d say, &#8216;First lady, I had the most wonderful talk with Vladimir. I think we&#8217;re finished.&#8217; And then I&#8217;ll turn on the television, or she&#8217;ll say to me one time, ‘Wow, that's strange because they just bombed a nursing home,'&#8221;
Trump later described her, saying, &#8220;She&#8217;s very smart&#8230;she&#8217;s very neutral. She&#8217;d like to see people stop dying.&#8221;
This revelation sparked a wave of support for Melania on social media in Ukraine, with one user even dubbing her &#8220;Agent Melania Trumpenko,&#8221; <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jul/15/ukrainians-hail-melania-trump-for-challenging-husbands-faith-in-putin">reported </a>The Guardian. Ukrainians expressed their appreciation for Melania&#8217;s influence, particularly after the U.S. announced it would provide Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine. 
Notably, Melania Trump, who was born in Slovenia, has consistently voiced support for Ukraine since Russia's full-scale invasion in 2022, describing the suffering of innocent people as "heartbreaking and horrific."

Why It Matters: Trump&#8217;s acknowledgment of Melania&#8217;s influence comes in the wake of his recent decisions regarding the Russia-Ukraine conflict. On Sunday, Trump announced plans to&nbsp;supply Ukraine with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/07/46384536/trump-says-us-will-supply-ukraine-with-patriot-missiles-putin-really-surprised-a-lot-of-people-he-talks-nice-and-bombs-everybody-in-the-evening">Patriot missiles&nbsp;</a>as a countermeasure against Putin&#8217;s ongoing resistance to ceasefire negotiations.
However, Trump&#8217;s strategy has also drawn criticism. On Monday, leading economist&nbsp;Justin Wolfers&nbsp;criticized Trump&#8217;s proposed&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/07/46407695/trumps-100-tariff-threat-on-almost-nothing-trade-with-russia-a-prescription-for-how-to-sound-tough-but-do-nothing-says-economist">100% tariff threat </a>on Russia&nbsp;if a peace deal is not reached within 50 days. Wolfers argued that this threat, given the existing U.S. sanctions on Russia, would have little impact on Moscow.
Despite the criticism, Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46408496/trump-says-talk-doesnt-mean-anything-when-it-comes-to-putin-announces-plan-to-help-ukraine">remained resolute</a> in his approach, stating that&nbsp;&#8220;talk doesn&#8217;t mean anything&#8221;&nbsp;when it comes to Putin and announcing plans to help Ukraine by providing advanced U.S. weapons to European allies for distribution to Kyiv.

Trump Reveals Melania's Role In Toughening His Stance On Vladimir Putin: 'I Go Home, I Tell The First Lady...'

Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) plans on introducing more affordable EVs and electrified vehicles in its lineup as President Donald Trump curbs EV-related incentives in the U.S.
Check out the current price of <a href="https://benzinga.com/quote/f">F</a> stock here.
What Happened: "When it comes to affordability, we have to compete. Not just in our industry but on a global scale as well." Bob Holycross, Ford's chief sustainability, environment and safety officer, told Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-07-15/ford-promises-more-affordable-ev-models?srnd=phx-industries-transportation">on</a> Tuesday.
Holycross said that if Ford needed a more significant majority in the EV sector, the company would need to introduce more affordable EVs and electrified vehicles to its range.
He also shared that Ford is planning on introducing more Hybrid models in its lineup. Engineers at Ford are also working towards testing range-extended EVs, the report suggested. Range-extended EVs are electric vehicles that have a gasoline unit built in solely to help boost driveable range.
Ford's cheapest EV retails for $38,000, which is 22% more affordable than the standard price customers pay to buy cars in the U.S., the report suggests.
Why It Matters: The news comes following earlier reports that the Detroit-based automaker was working on an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46020713/ford-says-upcoming-budget-ev-platform-will-rival-chinese-ev-prices-report">affordable EV platform</a> to compete against the Chinese rivals.
However, as Trump axed the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46289556/trumps-tax-bill-axes-the-7500-ev-credit-heres-how-you-can-still-claim-it">$7,500 Federal EV Credit</a> in the U.S., Ford's F-150 Lightning EV pickup truck will become more expensive after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46270052/as-trumps-big-beautiful-bill-is-signed-into-law-these-evs-from-tesla-gm-and-ford-will-become-more-expensive">September 30 deadline</a>.
Ford sales also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46213625/ford-sales-surge-14-2-in-q2-beating-market-estimates-but-ev-sales-decline-31">surged 14.2%</a> in Q2, which beat market expectations as the company said it sold 612,095 units in the second quarter of the year. The company also announced it would go ahead with its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46074112/ford-to-proceed-with-3-billion-battery-plant-despite-potential-tax-incentive-loss-under-trumps-budget-plan-we-stick-behind-our-investments">plans to invest $3B</a> in the company's Michigan battery plant despite potential tax incentive loss.

Ford Responds To Trump's EV Policy Shift With Push For Affordable Electric Models

Polyrizon Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLRZ#NASDAQ">PLRZ</a>) saw a dip in its stock value during after-hours trading on Wednesday.
What Happened: The after-hours price of Polyrizon&#8217;s stock was $0.92, marking a 12.02% dip from the previous day&#8217;s closing price of $1.04. This follows a regular trading session surge of 52.47%.

The surge in the stock value on Tuesday follows the company&#8217;s successful appeal to the NASDAQ panel, which enabled it to retain its listing on the exchange. The appeal was crucial for the biotech company, as it faced the risk of being delisted due to non-compliance with Nasdaq&#8217;s listing rules.
Why It Matters: Polyrizon&#8217;s stock value has been on a rollercoaster ride recently. Earlier in July, the company&#8217;s stock value also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/movers/25/07/46425317/12-health-care-stocks-moving-in-tuesdays-intraday-session">experienced a significant increase</a> after the news of its continued Nasdaq listing. This was after a hearing panel confirmed the company&#8217;s compliance with the exchange&#8217;s listing rules.
These developments come on the heels of Polyrizon&#8217;s announcement of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/06/45901285/polyrizon-announces-preclinical-results-from-study-evaluating-its-trap-target-platform-showing-formu">successful preclinical results</a> from a study evaluating its Trap &amp; Target platform.

Polyrizon Stock Slides After Hours After 52% Surge On Tuesday: Why It Moved

President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;said Tuesday he has secured the commitment of House Republicans to vote in favor of the GENIUS Act after procedural failures halted its progress earlier in the day.
What Happened:&nbsp;In a Truth Social <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114860136006223294">post</a>, Trump said that he had secured the support of 11 out of the 12 necessary Congress members&nbsp;to pass the GENIUS Act, also known as the stablecoin bill. The decision was reached during a meeting in the Oval Office, with&nbsp;Speaker of the House Mike Johnson&nbsp;(R-La.) participating via telephone. 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="737" height="447" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/16030932/image-189.png" alt="" class="wp-image-987243" style="width:470px;height:auto" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/16030932/image-189.png 737w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/16030932/image-189-300x182.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 737px) 100vw, 737px" /></figure>
&#8220;After a short discussion, they have all agreed to vote tomorrow morning in favor of the Rule,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;I want to thank the Congressmen/women for their quick and positive response.&#8221;
Republicans, including Rep.&nbsp;Marjorie Taylor Greene&nbsp;(R-Ga.), had opposed the Act earlier due to a lack of a clause prohibiting Central Bank Digital Currency and the Speaker&#8217;s refusal to consider amendments.

Trump Says 11 Of 12 Republicans Needed Now Support Stablecoin Bill After Earlier Setback — They've All Agreed To Vote In Favor

As the Donald Trump administration plans up to 200% tariffs on pharmaceutical companies, Emily Field, head of European pharma research at Barclays, has said that it&#8217;s hard to predict which firm would be affected the most by these tariffs, except for Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>).
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NVO">NVO stock here</a>.
What Happened: Explaining that the pharmaceutical companies as a whole are &#8220;out of favor&#8221; for tariffs, Field <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/video/2025/07/14/barclays-the-pharma-sector-is-very-out-of-favor-for-tariffs.html">told</a> CNBC that it was hard to single out a company that could be the most affected by the levies.
&#8220;It&#8217;s really difficult to say because they have really complex supply chains and companies like to keep it under the wraps,&#8221; she said, adding that &#8220;Novo Nordisk has been called out just because we know a lot of active pharmaceutical ingredients for Wegovy are manufactured in Denmark, so that&#8217;s just one that investors have highlighted.&#8221;
She adds, &#8220;But that could also just be because we have a more concrete idea of how their drug flows. But for the most part, this sector is just very out of favor for tariffs.&#8221;
Talking about the European pharma companies that were planning to invest in the U.S., Field mentioned Novartis AG (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVS#NYSE">NVS</a>), Roche Holdings AG (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RHHBY#OTCQX">RHHBY</a>), and AstraZeneca PLC (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZN#NASDAQ">AZN</a>).
&#8220;We have seen from a number of European companies very significant announcements about manufacturing investments in the United States. We have seen that from Novartis, Roche, and we also know that the companies are working with the administration on this &#8216;Most Favored Nation&#8217; (MFN) drug pricing policy,&#8221; she said.
She also added that AstraZeneca is likely considering changing its registration to the U.S. &#8220;All of the companies based in Europe are emphasizing that they are very committed to the U.S. and manufacturing in the U.S.&#8221;
According to Field, this is all connected in some way. &#8220;It could be a combination of tariffs and drug pricing that the industry and administration can strike a deal that is favorable to both parties,&#8221; Field explained.

Why It Matters: Barclays has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46364024/trump-threatens-200-pharma-tariffs-but-analyst-says-this-stock-is-immune-and-expected-to-benefit-from-levies">cautioned that a 200% pharma tariff</a> would &#8220;inflate production costs, compress profit margins, and risk supply chain disruptions." 
&#8220;We are waiting for the results of the Section 232 investigation from the Commerce Ministry, which is supposed to come by the end of the month. Prior to Trump saying that he was going to announce 200%, I think most have been expecting 25%; however, the industry&#8217;s response is that tariffs will be negative for patients, as it could result in drug shortages,&#8221; Feild said.
These are some pharma ETFs that could be impacted as the long-awaited industry-wide tariffs would be announced &#8220;very soon,&#8221; according to Trump.
