Robert Way/iStock Editorial via Getty Images AstraZeneca ( AZN ) announced on Friday that its antibody therapy, tozorakimab, reached the key goals in two Phase 3 trials for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, a respiratory disease characterized by airflow limitation and airway inflammation. The OBERON and TITANIA trials for former and current smokers with COPD were designed to evaluate tozorakimab 300 mg versus placebo, administered once every four weeks, on top of standard of care for 52 weeks. The studies for more than 2,000 adults with symptomatic COPD reached the primary endpoints, as there was a statistically significant decline in annualized COPD exacerbations in the primary population of former smokers, the Anglo-Swedish drugmaker said. The interleukin-33-targeting antibody was generally well tolerated with a favorable safety profile, the company added. Two additional late-stage trials for tozorakimab in COPD are currently underway. AstraZeneca ( AZN ) plans to present full results from OBERON and TITANIA at a future medical conference.

dima_zel/iStock via Getty Images Intuitive Machines ( LUNR ) (hereafter "IM") recently won a major contract with NASA . Space exploration is fraught with risk, so every development like this is important. With opportunity and danger, I think investors can know when to move on from LUNR by keeping their eyes on the numbers. Quick Background IM is a space services and exploration company and has focused mostly on the moon. It initially had three segments: delivery, data transmission, and infrastructure . Revenue Segments (Q3 2024 Company Presentation) Historically, nearly every penny of revenue was from delivery services. Why? Because little happens on the moon. Delivery puts resources there that should make the more prospective segments workable. The small-scale and expensive missions meant IM was burning a lot of cash, using $67.6M in 2024 ( 2024 Form 10K , pg. 59). Cash Flow Statement (2024 Form 10K) Disaster occurred last year when their IM-2 mission landed off-target and was forced to conclude early. Yet, the company also bounced back. In August, IM secured $300M in funding from convertible notes. It closed the acquisition of KinetX for $30M, which exposes them to deep space exploration. It also continued to win contracts, such as an $8.2M deal with the US Air Force for nuclear power in space. This January, they acquired Lanteris for $800M, a satellite manufacturer. All things considered, IM showed a lot of perseverance, even if it's in a pre-profit stage of life. Coming Into 2026 As IM entered into 2026, it was a different business, somewhat . This is seen in how it emphasizes the three segments now: build, connect, and operate . Q4 2025 Investor Presentation Management still maintains that the moon is their main strategy, but there is more room to win contracts related to other parts of space exploration, nearer and farther. 2025 Revenue (2025 Form 10K) Because the changes occurred late in 2025 or into this year, 2025's financial results suggest that IM is shri...

SoftBank ( SFTBY ) ( SFTBF ) said it has secured a $40B bridge loan to bolster investments in OpenAI ( OPENAI ) and for general corporate purposes. Last month, the Japanese conglomerate announced that it would make follow-on investments of $30B via SoftBank Vision Fund 2 in the ChatGPT maker as part of OpenAI’s fundraising round. SoftBank had said then that after completion of the investment, its total investment in OpenAI is expected to be about $64.6B, representing an ownership interest of around 13%. SoftBank said on Friday that JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Mizuho Bank, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, and MUFG Bank were the lenders . The maturity date of the loan is March 25, 2027.

Sundry Photography Tesla ( TSLA ) has long been known to issue sweeping master plans to describe its business objectives. The next version could involve one of the largest mergers in corporate history in terms of the market caps involved. Wedbush Securities expects Tesla ( TSLA ) and SpaceX ( SPACE ) to merge in 2027. Analyst Dan Ives and his team noted that the groundwork is already in place for both operations to become one organization. It was highlighted that Tesla ( TSLA ) already owns a stake in SpaceX ( SPACE ) after the company’s $2B investment in xAI got converted to SpaceX ( SPACE ) shares following the acquisition of xAI earlier this year. The deal initially tied the Musk ventures closer together but still only represents less than 1% of SpaceX's ( SPACE ) expected valuation. The recent announcement of a joint Terafab facility between SpaceX ( SPACE ) and Tesla ( TSLA ) is seen by Ives as further linking both operations together, which could make it more feasible to merge operations given the now existing overlap. "While there are plenty of regulatory hurdles from the FTC and DOJ, this remains Musk’s end goal by owning 25% of TSLA over time as it enters the most important growth chapter in the company’s history," updated Ives. Ultimately, Musk wants to own and control more of the AI ecosystem, which could be achieved by combining SpaceX ( SPACE ) and Tesla ( TSLA ) in some way. Tesla's ( TSLA ) original Master Plan was published in 2006 and outlined a sequence: build a premium electric sports car, use that to fund cheaper EVs, and then move toward broad adoption of zero-emission transport and energy. Master Plan, Part Deux came in 2016 and expanded the vision to include a full vehicle lineup, solar roofs, autonomous driving, and a robotaxi network. Master Plan Part 3 was released in 2023 and focused on scaling a sustainable global energy economy through electrification, renewable power, and storage. Master Plan Part IV was published in 2025 and framed Tes...
