Also, the company owns the US portion of William Hill (it sold the international operation in 2022), a digital sports betting platform.

This Is What Whales Are Betting On Caesars Entertainment

Edison International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EIX#NYSE">EIX</a>) shares are trading higher on Wednesday. Brokerage firm <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/upgrades/25/01/43010675/edison-international-shares-are-moving-higher-wednesday-whats-driving-the-action">Ladenburg Thalman upgraded the stock from Sell to Neutral</a>. They believe the recent sell-off is overdone.
The chart of Edison illustrates that even when there is significant news regarding a company, it is still important for traders and investors to understand technical analysis dynamics. This is why it is our Stock of the Day.
The sell-off was driven by concerns about the potential impact caused by the Los Angeles fires. Edison is an electric power generator and distributor that operates in Southern California. The company will lose revenue because it is no longer supplying energy to the destroyed areas.
There are also concerns over possible legal issues. A lawsuit has been filed alleging that faulty equipment owned by Edison started the fire.

Despite this news, as you can see on the chart technical analysis dynamics still come into play.
In financial markets, certain price levels are more important than others. These are called support and resistance levels.
&#8220;Markets have memories&#8221; is an old Wall Street expression. It means important price levels can retain their importance for a long time. It could be weeks, months or even years.
The $55 level has been support for Edison since October 2020. Each time the stock dropped to this price, the buyers flooded the market and put a floor under the stock.
This isn't a coincidence. There tends to be support at prices that were support previously.
Some investors and traders regret selling at a support level if the price rallies after. A number of these remorseful sellers decide that if they can, they will buy their shares back at the same price they were sold.
As a result, if and when the stock reverses and drops back to the support level they place buy orders. If there is a significant number of these orders, it will create support at the same price where there had been support before.
Markets do in fact, have memories. The chart of Edison International shows it. The $55 has been a support level for more than four years.

Paramount Deal Should Get CFIUS Scrutiny, House Member Says

Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) scored big with its first NFL Playoffs exclusive stream, airing the recent Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens matchups during the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/25/01/42829221/how-to-watch-nfl-playoffs-super-bowl-lix-betting-odds-will-history-be-made-by-chiefs-or-lions"> first week of the postseason.</a>
What Happened: Amazon set a new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/streaming">Prime Video</a> NFL record with an average of 22.07 million viewers during the Steelers and Ravens matchup, which the Ravens won 28-14 and advanced.
The record tops the 17.92 million Amazon's Prime Video had for a regular season game between the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers earlier this season. That match was the most streamed game during the season, before Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) set the 2024 NFL streaming record<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/12/42711504/lebron-james-vs-nfl-nba-star-says-christmas-is-our-day-2024-ratings-paint-a-different-picture"> on Christmas Day.</a>
Amazon has the rights to "Thursday Night Football" games and has regularly shared that the NFL games have provided a boost to Prime subscribers and also helped with advertising revenue.
The NFL Playoffs game sets a new bar for Amazon in its sports streams and the NFL partnership, as <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/nfl-wild-card-2025-tv-ratings-prime-video-fox-1236108797/">reported </a>by The Hollywood Reporter. While the viewership was high and the game hit a peak of 24.66 million viewers during the game, the viewership trails several other media companies in their NFL coverage.
This is the second straight year the NFL has featured a NFL Playoffs game exclusive to a streaming platform. Last year, Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>) streamed a NFL Playoffs game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins on Peacock.
That game had average viewership of 22.86 million, which ranks ahead of Amazon's game this season.
Also ranking ahead of Amazon are both Christmas Day games that streamed on Netflix with average viewership of 24.1 million and 24.3 million.

Why It's Important: Amazon's NFL Playoffs match was also the least watched of the first weekend of games.
Fox Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOX#NASDAQ">FOX</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOXA#NASDAQ">FOXA</a>) had average viewership of 35.89 million for the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers game on Fox. Comcast had a viewership of 29 million for the Washington Commanders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers game. These games had viewership down 11% and 19% year-over-year respectively from last year.
CBS, which is a unit of Paramount Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARAA#NASDAQ">PARAA</a>), had two games over the first weekend with average viewership of 26.6 million for the Los Angeles Chargers and Houston Texans game and average viewership of 31.2 million for the Buffalo Bills and Denver Broncos game. These games saw an increase in viewership compared to last year.
Monday's contents between the Los Angeles Rams and Minnesota Vikings, which aired on Walt Disney Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) units ABC, ESPN and ESPN2, had average viewership of 25.34 million, down 13% from last year's opening weekend Monday night game.
Four games will be played in the second weekend of the NFL Playoffs with Disney, Fox, Comcast and Paramount each having one contest.
Amazon's Playoffs game could serve as a continued test of how streaming viewership matches up against broadcast channels. This year's playoffs showed that so far more viewers watched on broadcast than on streaming.
The fact that Amazon's Playoffs game also fell shy of Netflix's Christmas Day viewership for NFL games could also prove costly if the two streaming platforms go head-to-head on sports rights in the future.
Amazon had a successful season of NFL viewership in 2024, with an average of 13.2 million viewers for its "Thursday Night Football" games, up 11% year-over-year, as <a href="https://frontofficesports.com/amazons-nfl-ratings-rose-13-in-2024-a-playoff-game-is-next/">reported </a>by FrontOfficeSports.
The company also streamed a second annual Black Friday game on Prime Video. When that game is counted into the games, Amazon's 2024 NFL viewership averaged 13.5 million viewers and was up 13% year-over-year.
Amazon has come a long ways from the 9.58 million average viewers it had for "Thursday Night Football" games in 2022.

The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43011444/wall-street-rallies-as-treasury-yields-fall-banks-smash-q4-earnings-oil-hits-80-whats-driving-markets-wednesday">December inflation report</a>, showing a slowdown in core price pressures, has reduced concerns about the Federal Reserve&#8217;s aggressive stance on interest rates.
What To Know: As the probability of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43003047/stocks-rise-on-core-inflation-slowdown-banks-rally-after-strong-q4-earnings-treasury-yields-plummet">rate cuts</a> in 2025 increases, Uber stands to benefit from a more favorable financing environment, potentially lowering its borrowing costs and improving profitability.

Additionally, the prospect of a rate cut enhances consumer confidence, which may drive more demand for Uber's services. A more stable economic environment may encourage discretionary spending, including ridesharing and delivery services.
Lower borrowing costs could also enable Uber to accelerate its expansion plans, invest in new technologies or explore strategic acquisitions.
Uber&#8217;s stock price is likely buoyed Wednesday by the belief that economic conditions will support the company's long-term growth.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy UBER Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Uber Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, or Amazon.com, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so. 
In the the case of Uber Technologies, which is trading at $66.89 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 1.49 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, UBER has a 52-week high of $87.00 and a 52-week low of $54.84.

Benzinga Market Summary: S&P Rises Following Dec. CPI And Strong Bank Earnings, Israel And Hamas Reach Hostage And Ceasefire Agreement

Marvell Technology Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>) shares are trading higher by 0.99% to $116.35 during Wednesday&#8217;s session amid the broader market&#8217;s positive reaction to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43003047/stocks-rise-on-core-inflation-slowdown-banks-rally-after-strong-q4-earnings-treasury-yields-plummet">December inflation data</a>.

Defense stocks are moving slightly lower Wednesday after Israel and Hamas verbally agreed on a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43011383/israel-gaza-ceasefire-hostage-exchange">ceasefire in Gaza</a>.
What Happened: Hamas accepted a draft agreement on Wednesday for a ceasefire in Gaza that includes the release of several hostages, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43011383/israel-gaza-ceasefire-hostage-exchange">multiple reports</a>. 
The agreement follows months of negotiations and paves the way for a potential end to the ongoing war in the Middle East that began about 15 months ago. The verbal agreement also comes just days before President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s inauguration. 
&#8220;We have a deal for the hostages in the Middle East. They will be released shortly. Thank you!&#8221; Trump&nbsp;said in a post on Truth Social.
The deal reportedly includes a six-week ceasefire and the release of 33 Israeli hostages in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners. Israel still needs to ratify the deal, but a vote is expected by Thursday.

At the time of writing, Lockheed Martin shares were down about 0.7%, while Northrop Grumman and RTX shares were down about 0.8%. It&#8217;s worth noting that the SPDR S&amp;P 500 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) was up 1.77% at last check.
Defense stocks have benefitted from the ongoing war in the Middle East with the Global X Funds Defense ETF having gained more than 35% over the past year, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Defense Stocks Fall On Gaza Ceasefire While Broader Market Rallies: What's Going On?

Denali Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DNLI#NASDAQ">DNLI</a>) CEO Ryan Watts presented at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference.&nbsp;
The presentation primarily focused on&nbsp;the company&#8217;s blood-brain-barrier (BBB) crossing platform technology and the pipeline, including tividenofusp alfa (tivi, DNL310) in Hunter syndrome and DNL126 in Sanfilippo syndrome Type A,&nbsp;as well as ATV:Abeta approach in Alzheimer&#8217;s disease.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/25/01/42856965/denali-therapeutics-amyotrophic-lateral-sclerosis-misses-pivotal-trial-but-analyst-says-it-was-expected" rel="noreferrer noopener">Denali Therapeutics&#8217; Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Misses Pivotal Trial, But Analyst Says It Was Expected</a>
JP Morgan notes that the management believes each TV franchise has the potential to generate over $3 billion in value.
The analyst views Denali Therapeutics as being in the early stages of unlocking the full potential of its BBB TV platform across various applications, maintaining the stock&#8217;s Overweight rating.
Ahead of the conference, DNL310 received Breakthrough Therapy Designation in Hunter Syndrome and is on track to file a BLA for accelerated approval in early 2025. Based on this timeline, JP Morgan expects a potential late-2025/early 2026 launch.
<ul>
<li>The company is gearing up for commercialization and product launch, focusing initially on the U.S. market. Management estimates there are approximately 400-500 patients in the U.S.</li>
<li>Meanwhile, the Phase 2/3 COMPASS trial has completed enrollment for neuronopathic participants in cohort A. Both study cohorts are expected to have simultaneous results, but no timeline for the readout has been provided. Globally, management estimates around 2,000 patients.</li>
</ul>
On DNL126, the management did not share detailed data but emphasized promising results from the Phase 1/2 trial in Sanfilippo syndrome Type A.
These include DNL126&#8217;s ability to normalize CSF HS levels. Building on these findings and insights from DNL310, the company is working to speed up DNL126&#8217;s development timeline.
To support this, they expanded the Phase I/II trial from two to five cohorts, aiming for a faster approval pathway. Management estimates a global patient population of over 1,500.
JP Morgan also notes that Denali Therapeutics has a manufacturing facility. While it won&#8217;t be used for the commercial launch of Tivi in Hunter syndrome, it is expected to support the company&#8217;s other programs.
As of September 30, 2024, cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were approximately $1.28 billion. Denali anticipates its cash runway <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/g42942702/denali-therapeutics-announces-key-anticipated-2025-milestones-and-priorities-to-further-advance-it" rel="noreferrer noopener">will extend into 2028</a>.

The discussions mainly focused on apitegromab for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), including its label if approved. They also covered commercial aspects such as the prevalence of SMA, the potential market, and factors influencing its adoption.

<ul>
<li>Regarding apitegromab in SMA, the company plans to submit U.S. and European marketing applications in the first quarter of 2025, aiming for a potential U.S. launch in the fourth quarter of 2025, followed by a European launch.</li>
<li>Detailed results from the phase 3 SAPPHIRE trial, which involves patients with non-ambulatory type 2/3 SMA treated with Spinraza (nusinersen) or Evrysdi (risdiplam), are expected to be presented at medical meetings in 2025.</li>
<li>By mid-2025, the company aims to start the phase 2 OPAL trial, focusing on patients under 2 years old to understand how the drug behaves and guide dosing.</li>
<li>Regarding the addressable market, the company estimates the current SMA market at around $4.5 billion across three SMN-targeted therapies, mainly in the 2-21-year-old age group. They now expect apitegromab to reach over $2 billion in global revenue, an increase from previous estimates of $1 billion, driven by strong data and a favorable competitive landscape.</li>
</ul>
The analyst also discussed the upcoming results from the Phase 2 EMBRAZE trial, which is evaluating apitegromab combined with tirzepatide or semaglutide in adults who are overweight or obese. The data is expected in the second quarter of 2025.
JP Morgan remains positive on Scholar Rock (<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SRRK/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Overweight rating</a>), as the recent SAPPHIRE trial results have unlocked strong growth potential for apitegromab in spinal muscular atrophy. The company could enter the commercial stage by 2025, and the analyst expects a strong product launch.
The analyst also sees potential for further value in the stock if the cardiometabolic data shows positive results, with initial data expected in the second quarter of 2025.
Price Action: SRRK stock is up 4.89% at $43.56 at last check Wednesday.

Scholar Rock Sets Sights on $2 Billion Apitegromab Revenue Amid Spinal Muscular Atrophy Market Growth

Just before the JP Morgan healthcare conference, Eli Lilly and Co&nbsp;(NYSE:&nbsp;LLY) announced that it expects 2024 full-year worldwide revenue to be approximately&nbsp;$45.0 billion, representing a 32% growth compared to the previous year versus the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42976923/eli-lilly-expects-around-55-billion-sales-from-weight-lossdiabetes-drugs-with-overall-topline-growth-of-32-issues-2025-forecast" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $45.50 billion</a>.
The company's expected 2024 revenue is&nbsp;$400 million, or about 3%, below the guidance range issued during the&nbsp;third-quarter earnings. The guidance includes approximately&nbsp;$3.5 billion&nbsp;for Mounjaro and $1.9 billion&nbsp;for Zepbound.
During the conference, David Ricks outlined two reasons for the guidance update:
<ul>
<li>The diabetes GLP market, in December, outperforms the rest of the quarter and in year this did not happen&#8230;The CEO said this could be just a guess. The company said it did not predict it. "This year that didn't happen in GLP-1," said Ricks, who speculated that changes in Medicare Part D and insurance edits have prevented patients from doubling up their prescriptions at the end of the year to avoid deductible costs early in the following year."</li>
<li>Stocking levels were a big discussion during Q3 results. The company dropped about 8 selling days in that quarter alone. The company expected a buildback at the end of the year because every year, a couple of days of buildback happen, and it did not happen this year.</li>
</ul>
Regarding the guidance approach, the CEO noted, "The scale of this business and the way it's been growing, the consumer part of it, along with the stocking dynamics, it's just been a learning [experience] for us," Ricks said. "Our forecasters really nailed the rest of the portfolio. We don't have a problem with forecasting. It's just, this market is quite different."
Goldman analyst Chris Shibutani writes, "We expect this preliminary 4Q results to heighten concerns relating to underlying demand dynamics, which initially emerged at a broader level amongst investors during the 3Q results and guidance update."
Price Action: LLY stock is up 0.59% at $749.28 at the last check on Wednesday.

What's Going On With BIO-Key International Stock Wednesday?

Morpheus, a platform focused on launching Smart Agents, has introduced a $10 million rewards program in its native MOR token specifically designed for its community of builders.
This initiative, which went live on the Base network, follows a similar rewards program for AI Compute Providers, a step forward in Morpheus&#8217; ongoing strategy to develop an economic ecosystem for decentralized AI.
The move is aimed at attracting developers to build and contribute to the platform, particularly in the rapidly growing field of AI agents.
The builder rewards program incentivizes developers to create various components for the Morpheus platform, including Smart Agents themselves, user interfaces, decentralized applications (dApps), and other tools. 
This structure is intended to encourage a vibrant and multifaceted ecosystem that supports all aspects of agent creation and deployment. 
Morpheus is positioning itself as an all-in-one platform, emphasizing its ability to offer developers access to funding, computation, and streamlined agent deployment, aiming to provide an advantage over other projects that only focus on a single area.
Central to Morpheus&#8217; system is its four-pronged approach, which recognizes contributions from code, capital, compute and builders.

The rewards system seeks to compensate all participants equitably in MOR tokens, promoting a self-sustaining ecosystem. 
Moreover, holders of the MOR token are entitled to a share of the network's compute power, allowing agents continuous access to resources. 
The tokenomics of the network is designed to support the development of decentralized AI applications, with the long term goal of fostering a broad community around the project.
According to Morpheus open-source contributor David Johnston, this launch positions Morpheus at the forefront of the current AI agent expansion, welcoming agents from diverse chains and frameworks. 
This is intended to be a move towards a more universal platform for AI agent creation. 
The underlying incentive is that this allows compute and builder tokenomics to work together efficiently to reward developers fairly and in a permissionless fashion.
Morpheus operates as a decentralized AI network that optimizes the use of computational power. 
It offers users a ChatGPT-like interface that allows interaction via decentralized data routing. 
The network also provides access to personal AIs, facilitates crypto payments for AI services, features an AI marketplace, and allows for generating images via multiple Large Language Models (LLMs). 
The platform is supported by an open-source community, as well as partnerships with projects like Lumerin. 
The core of the offering is that it provides a wide ranging set of tools to work within this decentralized AI ecosystem.

In the current market session, MGM Resorts Intl Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MGM#NYSE">MGM</a>) price is at $33.75, after a 1.96% spike. However, over the past month, the stock decreased by 1.66%, and in the past year, by 22.45%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is undervalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>MGM Resorts Intl P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 80.1 in the Hotels, Restaurants &amp; Leisure industry, MGM Resorts Intl Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 11.86. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1736968542_1.png" alt="Guage" />

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.
