U.S. stock futures were trading lower on Tuesday following Monday&#8217;s advance. Futures of major benchmark indices were lower in premarket.
President Donald Trump called on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/events/25/06/45964856/trump-asks-everyone-to-immediately-evacuate-tehran-odds-of-us-striking-iran-spike-on-crypto-betting-platform">Iranians to leave Tehran</a>, pointing to the government&#8217;s refusal to accept a deal aimed at limiting nuclear weapons development, amid ongoing attacks between Israel and Iran that marked the fifth consecutive day on Tuesday.
At the G7 summit in Canada, world leaders urged a reduction in tensions during the most severe clash ever between these regional adversaries, labeling Iran as a source of instability and insisting it must never acquire nuclear weapons, while also recognizing Israel&#8217;s right to self-defense.
Trump took to Truth Social on Monday to clarify his abrupt departure from the G7 Summit in Canada. He refuted Macron's claim that he was returning to Washington to negotiate a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. "He has no idea why I am now on my way to Washington, but it certainly has nothing to do with a Cease Fire. Much bigger than that," Trump wrote.
Trump had previously urged citizens of Tehran, Iran's capital, to evacuate immediately, indicating a potential U.S. involvement in the conflict.
Meanwhile, President Trump, while on Air Force One returning from the G-7 summit, told reporters he is seeking <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45968002/trump-says-israel-iran-ceasefire-not-on-the-table-left-g7-early-for-a-much-bigger-reason-spy-qqq">&#8220;a real end&#8221; to Iran&#8217;s nuclear issue</a>, with Tehran giving it up &#8220;entirely.&#8221;
The 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.43% and the two-year bond was at 3.96%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections show markets pricing a 99.9% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its June meeting.

Insights From Analysts:
Despite the dominating geopolitical headlines, a senior economist at WisdomTree, Jeremy Siegel, told investors that they need to focus on the more meaningful development: &#8220;the continued softening of inflation data.&#8221;
&#8220;Both CPI and PPI came in on the low side, confirming the disinflationary trend that's been evident. These price increases have not yet fully worked their way into the data and are likely to show up over the next couple of months. Even so, the underlying trend is down (excluding tariff impacts coming up). My view remains firm: ex-tariffs, inflation is cooling, and the Fed should begin easing policy,&#8221; he said.
He said that he remains &#8220;optimistic&#8221; about the stock market. &#8220;Markets have shown impressive resilience, inflation is heading in the right direction, and the Fed will ultimately come along. Stay focused on fundamentals and avoid getting whipsawed by noise,&#8221; he added.
Meanwhile, Jeff Buchbinder, the chief equity strategist at LPL Financial explained that there are several key questions to answer before we know how stocks will handle this geopolitical shock, including how much of Iran's energy infrastructure will be impaired and for how long, whether Iran's nuclear capabilities will be completely wiped out, and whether the current regime will remain in power.
For those surprised that the U.S. stock market held up well on Monday, Buchbinder argued that it was a combination of several factors:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>The likelihood of regime change in Iran and a resulting "peace dividend",</li>
<li>U.S. energy independence,</li>
<li>Israel's interest in limiting the suffering of Iranian civilians (which could mean limited disruption to oil production facilities), and</li>
<li>Both players have limited resources and an interest in keeping the conflict contained.</li>

US Stock Futures Tumble After Trump Threatens 'Real End' To Iran's Nuclear Problem: '…Avoid Getting Whipsawed By Noise,' Says Expert

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed some improvement in the overall market sentiment, while the index remained in the &#8220;Greed&#8221; zone on Monday.
U.S. stocks settled higher on Monday, with the Dow Jones index gaining more than 300 points during the session after Iran signaled it wants to de-escalate tensions with Israel and return to negotiations, easing geopolitical jitters that had rattled investors and sent oil prices surging last week.
Sage Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAGE#NASDAQ">SAGE</a>) shares surged over 35% on Monday after Supernus Pharmaceuticals agreed to acquire the company. Shares of Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SRPT#NASDAQ">SRPT</a>) dipped more than 42% after the company suspended ELEVIDYS shipments and paused the ENVISION trial following a second fatal liver failure in non-ambulatory Duchenne patients.
On the economic front, the New York Empire State Manufacturing Index dipped to a reading of -16 in June compared to May&#8217;s reading of -9.2, and also down from market estimates of -5.5.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with communication services, information technology and consumer discretionary stocks recording the biggest gains on Monday. However, utilities and health care stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session lower.
The Dow Jones closed higher by around 317 points to 42,515.09 on Monday. The S&amp;P 500 gained 0.94% to 6,033.11, while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 1.52% to 19,701.21 during Monday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from Jabil Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBL#NYSE">JBL</a>), John Wiley &amp; Sons Inc.

What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 62, the index remained in the &#8220;Greed&#8221; zone on Monday, versus a prior reading of 60.3.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

Sage Therapeutics, Roku, EchoStar And Other Big Stocks Moving Higher On Monday

Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SUPN#NASDAQ">SUPN</a>) on Monday agreed to acquire Sage Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAGE#NASDAQ">SAGE</a>) for $12.00 per share in cash, or an aggregate of up to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/g45945434/supernus-pharmaceuticals-to-acquire-sage-therapeutics-strengthening-its-neuropsychiatry-product-po" rel="noreferrer noopener">approximately $795 million</a>.
The deal consideration includes $8.50 per share in cash (or an aggregate of approximately $561 million) plus one non-tradable contingent value right (CVR) collectively worth up to $3.50 per share in cash (or an aggregate of approximately $234 million).
The CVR is payable upon achieving certain net sales and commercial milestones. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Strategic and Financial Benefits</h2>
The acquisition significantly strengthens Supernus Pharmaceuticals&#8217; psychiatry portfolio by adding Zurzuvae (zuranolone) capsules CIV, a landmark drug that stands as the first and only oral medicine approved by the FDA for treating postpartum depression in adults.
This strategic addition is set to diversify and substantially increase Supernus Pharmaceuticals&#8217; revenue base and cash flow. The financial impact is already evident from the collaboration revenue derived from Zurzuvae&#8217;s net sales, which, representing 50% of the net revenue recorded by Biogen Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIIB#NASDAQ">BIIB</a>), amounted to $36.1 million for the full year 2024 and $13.8 million in the first quarter of 2025 alone.
Supernus believes that with Zurzuvae joining its three other key growth products, Qelbree, ONAPGO, and GOCOVRI, the company is poised for significant future growth.
Beyond the immediate commercial benefits, the deal also augments Supernus Pharmaceuticals&#8217; central nervous system (CNS) discovery platforms and deepens its expertise in the field.
Furthermore, the strong integration potential with Supernus Pharmaceuticals&#8217; existing infrastructure is expected to yield substantial operational efficiencies, with projected annual cost synergies of up to $200 million.
&#8220;This acquisition represents a major step in bolstering our future growth. It augments our growth profile by adding a significant fourth growth product to our portfolio and further diversifies our sources of future growth. Zurzuvae aligns with our focus of acquiring novel value-enhancing and clinically differentiated medicines to treat CNS conditions,&#8221; said Jack Khattar, president and CEO of Supernus Pharmaceuticals.
In a significant development <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42957657">preceding the acquisition</a> by Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Biogen Inc. had made an unsolicited, non-binding proposal to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Sage Therapeutics that it did not already own. The offer was made on January 10, 2025, for a price of $7.22 per share.
In October 2024, Sage Therapeutics announced a strategic reorganization of its business operations to support the ongoing launch of Zurzuvae (zuranolone)&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/10/b41376682/sage-therapeutics-announces-strategic-reorganization-to-prioritize-zurzuvae-commercialization-and-" rel="noreferrer noopener">in postpartum depression</a>.
The company said the reorganization was intended to strengthen Sage&#8217;s balance sheet, extend its cash runway, and position the company for long-term growth potential.
The company&#8217;s layoff impacted over 165 employees (approximately 33% of its total workforce and approximately 55% of its R&amp;D workforce), including changes to&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/10/41382549/after-series-of-trial-setbacks-sage-therapeutics-to-lay-off-one-third-workforce" rel="noreferrer noopener">the leadership team</a>.
In September 2024, Biogen terminated its rights under the collaboration and license agreement with Sage, which was specific to the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/09/41049022/biogen-terminates-collaboration-with-sage-therapeutics-for-neurological-disorder-candidate" rel="noreferrer noopener">SAGE-324 program</a>.
