Targeted after Italy’s failure and for his dive in the Derby d’Italia, Alessandro Bastoni returned to form against Roma Italy were too afraid to play a World Cup qualifying playoff at San Siro, hosting their semi-final against Northern Ireland in Bergamo instead. Gennaro Gattuso explained it as a choice to protect his players, noting that the nation’s biggest football stadium was home to two rival clubs – Milan and Internazionale – and suggesting this dynamic might lead fans there to turn more quickly on players who struggled. Instead, on Sunday, it was San Siro that offered comfort to one who has become the scapegoat for yet another collective failure. Italy made it past Northern Ireland only to lose to Bosnia on penalties in Zenica. Alessandro Bastoni’s first-half red card, at a time when his country were winning 1-0, was a pivotal moment in the game and perhaps his entire career. Continue reading...
Drazen Zigic/iStock via Getty Images Thesis As you know, Neurocrine Biosciences ( NBIX ) is said to be in advanced negotiations to acquire Soleno Therapeutics ( SLNO ).

Drazen Zigic/iStock via Getty Images Thesis As you know, Neurocrine Biosciences ( NBIX ) is said to be in advanced negotiations to acquire Soleno Therapeutics ( SLNO ). The deal is tipped to value the company at just over $2.5 billion, or in the low-to-mid $50s per share. We were also told that discussions seem to be progressing pretty quickly, with a potential agreement possibly coming as soon as Monday. Now, this would actually be Neurocrine's first major deal and would, of course, add Soleno's key asset to their list, which is the first approved treatment for extreme hunger associated with Prader-Willi syndrome. In terms of that particular asset's potential, some analysts estimate that it could generate up to $2.3 billion in peak annual sales. As for the stock price, Soleno shares have surged almost 30% over the past week on takeover speculation. The buy case here for me would ultimately come down to owning a de-risked, first-in-class rare disease asset. It's tipped to have significant pricing power and a pretty clear path to rapid revenue scale, at what still looks like a rather modest multiple of peak sales. As you know, Vykat XR already has regulatory approval and some very strong clinical durability, which is set to give it a somewhat monopoly-like positioning in PWS. Where I see the real upside would be in pipeline-in-a-product expansion into some other metabolic and obesity indications. This is, of course, much longer-term, but even modest success in other uses could multiply the TAM. Pipeline setup As far as their pipeline goes, Soleno is pretty well concentrated on a single core asset, diazoxide choline extended-release (DCCR). DCCR is already commercially approved as Vykat XR in the U.S. as of 2025 and would be the company's lead and essentially their only late-stage/marketed product. It's designed to treat hyperphagia, extreme, life-threatening hunger, in patients with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). Now, this syndrome is a rare genetic disorder with no pr...

rarrarorro/iStock via Getty Images Park National Corporation ( PRK ) is a bank holding company that operates under the name Park National Bank with branches in five states -Kentucky, North Carolina, Tennessee, South Carolina, and its home state of Ohio. A check of the company's website still does not list Tennessee as a service area, even though it was added on February 1 when the company acquired First Citizens Bancshares in an all-stock transaction . The deal was valued at roughly $317 million when it was first announced and gave PRK access to 24 branch locations in attractive markets in the Volunteer State. It also pushed the bank over the $10 billion asset threshold . When Park National releases its Q1 2026 earnings report on April 20, investors will get their first glimpse of the impact of this recent acquisition. However, even without First Citizens on board, PRK posted strong results in FY 2025, results that I believe are reflected in its stock price. The company trades at a rich valuation that is reflective of its operations. Unfortunately, that also limits the reasonable expectations for shareholder upside, at least in the first half of this year. In this analysis, I will explain just what makes Park National such an interesting mid-cap regional bank to follow. Its expansion into attractive new areas seems well-timed and should continue to boost its bottom line. My concerns about its valuation are my only real hang-up for being more enthusiastic about buying the stock, but investors could do worse than holding PRK in their accounts, assuming they are prepared for the possibility that regional banks may continue to face choppy waters in the months ahead. Company Overview Formed in 1987, Park National Corporation is headquartered in Newark, OH. While its name may not yet have great cache nationwide, Park National Bank has the largest share of bank deposits in seven counties in Ohio and is second in three more. The bank engages in commercial and consumer banki...

Knife-wielding skeletons, wild experiments with toilets, an audience with the bassist from The Jam … the team behind the globe-conquering spookfest open up about their astonishing success ‘Oh. Em. Bloody. Gee.” Danny Robins, “ high priest of the paranormal ”, has removed his trademark red anorak and is pacing around the London Palladium stage telling ghost stories. A phantom baby. A haunted Teams meeting. A … “hairy flasher”. He dissects each tale with parapsychologists Evelyn Hollow (Team Believer) and Ciarán O’Keeffe (Team Sceptic – he exposed Most Haunted’s medium, Derek Acorah, as a fraud in a rift Robins calls “the Biggie and Tupac of the paranormal”). The rapt audience – a harmonious mix of millennials, boomers and gen Z – are eager to share their own stories, too: a woman’s voice quivers into a microphone as she describes a skeleton that wanted to stab her sister. This is the enthralling world of Uncanny. A lot has happened in the five years since Uncanny started life as a Radio 4 paranormal investigations podcast, with those spine-tingling opening lyrics, “I know what I saw.” In the first episode, The Evil in Room 611, Robins met scientist Ken, who recalled unexplained scares from decades ago in his university halls. Details of an evil dark figure and shaking doors were met with the reaction: “Bloody hell, Ken.” Two experts then shared their theories: parapsychologist Caroline Watt proffered hypnagogic hallucinations, while ordained minster Peter Laws claimed poltergeist activity.

Piotrekswat AbbVie ( ABBV ) has issued a preliminary financial update, lowering its earnings expectations for the first quarter and full year of 2026. The revision stems from $744 million in pre-tax expenses related to acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) and milestone payments incurred during the first quarter of 2026. This charge resulted in an unfavorable impact of $0.41 on both GAAP and adjusted non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. Based on these estimates, AbbVie’s full-year 2026 adjusted diluted earnings per share guidance range is now $13.96 - $14.16 vs. consensus of $14.52 (prior $14.37 - $14.57) , while the first quarter guidance sits at $2.56 - $2.60 vs. consensus of $2.99 (prior $2.97 - $3.01).

Italy is set to name a replacement for Leonardo SpA Chief Executive Officer Roberto Cingolani as soon as this week, according to people familiar with the matter, capping weeks of negotiations over the key corporate appointment. Alessandro Ercolani of Rheinmetall Italia and Stefano Donnarumma of Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane SpA are among the leading contenders to run Italy’s largest defense company, alongside internal candidates, the people said. The decision comes as the government finalizes appointments at major state-linked companies, a process complicated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s weakened political standing after a referendum defeat last month, which has shifted the balance in talks with coalition partners. The polling defeat has prompeted her to implement changes in order to project a sense of control and power, including a replacement of the cabinet’s tourism minister. The escalating conflict in the Middle East, which is making the defence sector even more crucial, has also contributed to Meloni’s decision, the people added. La Repubblica reported on Saturday that Cingolani is likely to be replaced and has been told he will not receive a new mandate, while also naming the potential candidates. Spokespeople for Leonardo and the government declined to comment Monday. Representatives for Rheinmetall and Ferrovie did not immediately reply to a request for comment Monday, a public holiday in Italy. The move is part of a broader overhaul of boards at state-controlled companies whose terms expire this spring, allowing the government to reshape leadership at strategic groups. Bloomberg has reported that Claudio Descalzi is set to be confirmed as chief executive officer of Eni SpA, while changes are being considered at several firms including Leonardo. The announcement of the appointments has been slightly delayed to allow for talks to continue. Meloni, who leads the Brothers of Italy party, has been negotiating appointments with coalition partners Matteo Sal...

GameStop (NYSE: GME) is playing to win. After four fiscal years of declining revenue growth, the video game retailer knows it needs to start thinking outside the small box if it wants to thrive, or even survive. CEO Ryan Cohen announced on CNBC in late January that GameStop was working on a major acquisition of a larger consumer company. He said it would be transformational for not just his own company, but also for capital markets in general. Armed with more than $9 billion in cash at the end of January, investors began plotting the potential purchase. Despite also packing more than $4 billion in long-term debt, GameStop would still be able to buy a larger company through additional leverage or by including more stock than cash in a potential deal.
