Spotlight on United Airlines Holdings: Analyzing the Surge in Options Activity

In 2015, Australian prospector David Hole searched for gold in Maryborough Regional Park, near Melbourne, with his metal detector. While this wasn't an unusual outing for the prospector, what he discovered was. He unearthed an unusually heavy reddish rock, which he suspected was a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40457722/gold-is-getting-its-moment-in-the-sun-and-experts-say-the-record-high-prices-could-">gold nugget</a> at the time.&nbsp;
He took the rock home and tried everything to crack it open – saws, hammers, even acid—but nothing worked. Years later, he took the rock to the Melbourne Museum to have them identify it. To his astonishment, geologists revealed that this "rock" was no rock at all but a rare 4.6 billion-year-old meteorite.&nbsp;

</ul>
Named after the park where it was found, the Maryborough meteorite weighs 17 kilograms (about 37.5 pounds) and has been identified as an H5 ordinary chondrite. According to Museums Victoria, this means that it contains chondrules, which are tiny crystallized droplets of metallic minerals that formed during the early stages of the solar system.&nbsp;
Museums Victoria geologist Dermot Henry told The Sydney Morning Herald that the meteorite's sculpted, dimpled surface was formed as it burned through the Earth's atmosphere. Henry, who has examined thousands of suspected meteorites throughout his decades-long career, commented that only two of the rocks he's examined turned out to be real meteorites and this was one of them.&nbsp;

According to Museums Victoria, the meteorite likely originated in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.&nbsp;
Carbon dating suggests that the Maryborough meteorite landed on Earth between 100 and 1,000 years ago. Historical records of meteor sightings near Maryborough, dating back to 1889, may provide clues about its arrival.&nbsp;
Meteorites like this offer invaluable insights into the formation and evolution of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38792088/expert-says-stunning-solar-activity-might-be-a-wake-up-call-for-earths-power-grids">solar system</a>. "They transport us back in time, providing clues to the age, formation and chemistry of our solar system (including Earth)," Henry said in a media release from Museums Victoria.&nbsp;
According to Science Alert, the Maryborough meteorite is one of only 17 recorded in Victoria, making it far rarer than gold. It is also the second largest meteorite discovered in the area, second only to a 55-kilogram specimen identified in 2003.&nbsp;

While experts haven't assigned a precise monetary value to the meteorite, they state that its rarity and scientific significance make it far more valuable than gold—it's priceless.&nbsp;
What began as a quest for gold ended with identifying a cosmic artifact that has survived billions of years and countless celestial events.
The Maryborough meteorite is now part of Museums Victoria's collection, which continues to captivate visitors and researchers alike. It was displayed at the Melbourne Museum during National Science Week, offering the public a chance to marvel at a tangible piece of the cosmos.

Man Keeps 17-Kilogram Rock For Years, Thinking It's Gold – Turns Out It's A 4.6 Billion-Year-Old Meteorite Worth Much More

President-elect Donald Trump tried to ban TikTok during his first presidential term but is now open to keeping the social media app around ahead of a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42495579/lawmakers-demand-apple-and-google-remove-tiktok-by-jan-19-what-you-need-to-know"> pending January ban.</a>
What Happened: Similar to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/41096120/if-you-invested-1-000-in-bitcoin-when-donald-trump-said-he-wasnt-a-fan-heres-how-much-youd">reversal of opinion on cryptocurrency,</a> Trump has had a change of heart about banning TikTok from the United States.
On Sunday, Trump shared that he supports TikTok remaining operational in the United States despite a pending ban that could take place in the U.S. on Jan 19, the day before he is inaugurated as president once again.
"I think we're going to have to start thinking because, you know, we did go on TikTok, and we had a great response with billions of views, billions and billions of views," Trump said at AmericaFest over the weekend, as reported by Reuters.
Trump said his team showed him a chart of his TikTok engagement and it was a record.
"I said, ‘Maybe we gotta keep this sucker around for a little while.'"
The comments from Trump come after he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42522134/trump-meets-tiktok-ceo-shou-zi-chew-at-mar-a-lago-as-platform-urges-supreme-court-to-block-looming-ban" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recently met with</a> TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew at Mar-A-Lago and, on the same day, said he had a "warm spot" for the social media app.
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments on Jan. 10 about the TikTok ban and whether to put the ban on hold.
The Justice Department has argued that TikTok's Chinese control is a national security threat in America. Trump echoed this opinion during<a href="https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/presidential-actions/executive-order-addressing-threat-posed-tiktok/"> his last presidency.</a>
"Action must be taken to address the threat posed by one mobile application in particular, TikTok," Trump said.
Trump previously said that the location tracking of federal employees and contractors, censored information, and disinformation from TikTok were the reasons for the ban.
"The United States must take aggressive action against the owners of TikTok to protect our national security," Trump previously said.

</ul>
Change of Opinion: This isn't the first time Trump has spoken positively about TikTok or against the ban this year.
Trump has stated previously that a potential ban on TikTok could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39827954/trump-for-tiktok-competition-to-mark-zuckerberg-if-you-dont-have-tiktok-you-have-facebook-and-instag">have a positive impact</a> on Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), a company he has often battled against.
"If you get rid of TikTok, Facebook and Zuckerschmuck will double their business," Trump said earlier this year of Meta Platforms and CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
One reason for the potential reversal of his stance on TikTok <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/03/37722366/why-did-donald-trump-change-his-mind-about-tiktok-follow-the-money-says-rep-nancy-pelosi">could be the support</a> of Republican megadonor&nbsp;Jeff Yass, who owns 15% of ByteDance.
A report from <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/03/14/trump-tiktok-billionaire-donors-00146892" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Politico </a>featured the potential of Trump looking for a way to benefit from opposing the TikTok ban.
&#8220;It&#8217;s a mirror image of 2020,&#8221; former technology company spokesperson&nbsp;Nu Wexler&nbsp;told Politico. &#8220;He tried to ban TikTok and then figured out that there was an out — that he could take care of a donor — and flipped on it.&#8221;
The report highlighted Trump&#8217;s order for ByteDance to sell TikTok&#8217;s U.S. arm. The company that would have benefitted from the move was Oracle Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>), which was co-founded by Trump donor Larry Ellison. Oracle CEO Safra Catz also donated to the Trump campaign for the 2020 election.
Yass is a donor to Club for Growth, a conservative group that supported Trump for the 2024 presidential election. Club for Growth is using former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway to fight Congress&#8217;s plan to ban TikTok.
&#8220;When it comes to Donald Trump, follow the money,&#8221; Rep.&nbsp;Nancy Pelosi&nbsp;(D-Calif.) told Politico of Trump&#8217;s TikTok reversal.
Trump&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37594839/enemy-of-the-people-trump-slams-meta-stock-as-tiktok-ban-faces-scrutiny" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">acknowledged in an interview</a>&nbsp;with CNBC that he met with Yass but the two did not talk about TikTok or ByteDance.
While the reversal of opinion on banning TikTok could have more to do with being&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/23/10/35339684/if-you-invested-1-000-in-meta-platforms-stock-when-donald-trump-said-facebook-was-always-anti-t" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">outspoken on Meta Platforms&nbsp;</a>and its CEO&nbsp;Mark Zuckerberg, the timing of the reversal after meeting with Yass drew scrutiny.
The report also came after a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/02/36990137/trump-says-anheuser-busch-deserves-second-chance-after-conservative-backlash-rocks-bud-light" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">similar reversal by Trump</a> in regards to the beer brand Bud Light and its parent company, Anheuser-Busch InBev.
The positive comments on the beer company came ahead of a fundraiser for the former president hosted by top Anheuser-Busch lobbyist&nbsp;Jeff Miller.
Trump's change of heart on TikTok and Bud Light coincided with key events or meetings involving major Republican donors.
Another factor in the positive commentary on TikTok could be Trump's granddaughter, Kai Trump. The eldest grandchild of Donald Trump and oldest child of Donald Trump Jr. has built a sizable following on TikTok with 1.3 million <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@thekaitrumpgolfer?lang=en">followers</a>.
Kai Trump regularly shares golf videos on TikTok along with videos of her grandfather, which have generated millions of views. While it remains to be seen how Trump can stop the ban from happening, upsetting his own granddaughter by not fighting to keep TikTok could be another consideration in speaking positively of the app.
Trump's own TikTok, which launched in June 2024, has 14.7 million <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@realdonaldtrump?lang=en">followers </a>and was mostly used during the 2024 election cycle.

TikTok Ban Under Trump? President-Elect Reconsiders As Pelosi Says 'Follow The Money'

On Monday, Zomedica Corp. (AMEX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZOM#AMEX">ZOM</a>) disclosed the launch of two new canine assays for its TRUFORMA <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/ac42643363/zomedica-launches-two-new-quantitative-assays-on-the-truforma-r-platform-canine-nt-probnp-and-pro" rel="noreferrer noopener">In-Clinic Biosensor Testing Platform</a>.
Zomedica&#8217;s progesterone test quantitatively measures progesterone levels in canine serum, helping determine optimal breeding timing, predict parturition dates, plan cesarean sections, and detect reproductive disorders, all with reference lab-level accuracy and in-clinic convenience.
The progesterone assay has become one of the most requested by practitioners, reflecting the high demand given the 4 million puppies born in the U.S. each year.
The canine NT-poBNP test measures NT-proBNP levels in EDTA plasma or serum, helping identify conditions such as congestive heart failure.
It distinguishes between cardiac and respiratory issues, identifies high-risk dogs, and supports monitoring of myxomatous mitral valve degeneration with reference lab-level accuracy.
Dr. Kelli Puccio, a Professional Services Veterinarian for Zomedica, said, &#8220;The TRUFORMA canine NT-proBNP assay facilitates the early detection of canine heart disease with the convenience of results in just a few minutes.&#8221;
&#8221;This provides veterinarians with the ability to start treatments and schedule advanced diagnostic tests more quickly. Increasing our patients&#8217; quality of life earlier in the disease process.&#8221;
&#8220;The TRUFORMA canine progesterone assay provides accurate serial quantitative progesterone measurements in clinic. This will permit veterinarians to recognize the optimal breeding window more efficiently, allowing for more successful breeding cycles.&#8221;
Ashley Wood, PhD, Zomedica&#8217;s Vice President of Research &amp; Development added, &#8220;Canine NT-proBNP and progesterone expand the range of indications to now include cardiac and reproductive conditions, offering even more comprehensive insights and support for clinical decision-making.&#8221;
Last month, Zomedica launched its third equine-focused assay—insulin for equine plasma—on the TRUFORMA <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/ac41966890/zomedica-launches-quantitative-insulin-assay-for-equine-plasma-on-the-truforma-r-platform" rel="noreferrer noopener">In-Clinic Biosensor Testing Platform</a>.
Price Action: ZOM shares are down 4.31% at $0.1199 at the last check on Monday.

Zomedica Unveils New Canine Tests Offering Faster Diagnostics for Heart and Breeding Health

Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) has dropped 17% in the past week, but analysts and traders suggest this could be a setup for a significant rally in 2025, fueled by increased investor interest and key bullish metrics.
What Happened: Lookonchain <a href="https://x.com/lookonchain/status/1871138914226057482">posted</a> on X on Dec. 23 that North Korean hackers suffered a $458,000 loss after betting on an Ethereum price increase. 
They deposited $476,489 USDC on Hyperliquid (CRYPTO: HYPE) to take a long position at $3,791.8 but were liquidated when Ethereum's price fell to $3,251.8.
CryptoQuant detailed shows key Ethereum metrics having turned bullish, such as moderately positive funding rates.
The Korea Premium Index for Ethereum suggests a significant price premium on South Korean exchanges, signaling heightened local demand.
Lastly, both institutional and retail investors are <a href="https://x.com/cryptoquant_com/status/1871168626021016027">showing</a> renewed confidence, with Ethereum fund holdings increasing despite the price dip.

Adding optimism, IncomeSharks described the price drop as a "chimney pattern," hinting at a potential Santa Claus rally heading into the year-end.

Cold Blooded Shiller predicts Ethereum will have a "really good 2025," suggesting that a price dip to $2,750–$3,000 could be an excellent entry point for long-term positioning.

In the current market session, Magnolia Oil &amp; Gas Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MGY#NYSE">MGY</a>) share price is at $22.99, after a 0.44% spike. Moreover, over the past month, the stock fell by 18.05%, but in the past year, went up by 3.27%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>Magnolia Oil &amp; Gas P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Magnolia Oil &amp; Gas has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 24.49 of the Oil, Gas &amp; Consumable Fuels industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734974110_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Roth Capital Partners: Winnebago reiterated the midpoint of its fiscal 2025 earnings guidance, Stember said in a note. The company indicated prospects of the RV (recreational vehicle) environment becoming brighter, with monthly improvements in trend from October into November and the first two weeks of December showing year-on-year growth, he added.
"While encouraging, we note that December tends to be among the lowest selling volume months of the year, so one should be careful in drawing conclusions at this time," the analyst wrote. Although Winnebago would likely be "among the first OEMs to come out of the RV recession," there are limited signs of a sustained retail recovery, he further stated.
BMO Capital Partners: The company reported an adjusted loss of 3 cents per share. That&#8217;s below Street expectations of 20 cents, and a contraction from the year-ago quarter's 95 cents. Management indicated there were several "green shoots" heading into 2025, "with improving consumer confidence and an expectation of more interest rate cuts in 2025," Thomas-Martin said.
Management added that post-election retail trends had been positive, which could support a turnaround in the second half of fiscal 2025, the analyst stated. "For Q2, management expects sales to be in line with Q1 with a modest improvement to profitability," he further wrote.
Truist Securities: Although Winnebago missed its first-quarter results and announced a muted guidance for the second quarter, conversations with management suggest that "the tide may finally be turning," Swartz said in a note. The company's own internal registrations strengthened on a year-on-year basis in November) and the trend has carried into mid-December, he added.
"In addition to WGO&#8217;s greater production constraint (it undershipped the RV industry considerably in FY1Q), mngts&#8217; upbeat retail commentary, evidenced market share gains and (hopefully) a bottoming of Motorized RV profitability in FY1Q is suggestive of a relatively stronger recovery curve over the coming 12-18 months," the analyst further wrote.
Benchmark: The shortfall on the company's bottom-line was driven by a decline in sales and margin contraction, Albanese said. This resulted from factors such as "the GD Motor startup, increased warranty expense and absorption de-leverage," he added.
Management suggested that consumer confidence had improved. Retail sales had inflected positively for the first time in 40 months. Also, inventory was close to the one-to-one ratio, which "should relieve some pricing pressures," the analyst stated. "WGO likes what it is seeing in its internal data through the end of the year," he further wrote.
Price Action: Shares of Winnebago had declined by 1% to $49.47 at the time of publication on Monday.
