travellinglight/iStock via Getty Images Biogen ( BIIB ) added ~9% in the premarket on Thursday after the company shared results from a mid-stage trial evaluating diranersen, an experimental therapy for Alzheimer’s disease developed in collaboration with Ionis Pharmaceuticals ( IONS ). Citing topline data from its Phase 2 CELIA study, the company said that diranersen, an antisense oligonucleotide designed to target a protein called "tau," slowed clinical decline across all studied doses in patients with early Alzheimer’s disease. Additionally, in line with early-stage trial data, all studied doses of the drug were associated with significant reductions of tau pathology, which is believed to cause neurodegeneration and cognitive decline in Alzheimer's. “The CELIA results provide the first evidence from a randomized Phase 2 study of a tau-directed therapy demonstrating both robust biomarker impact and cognitive benefit in early Alzheimer’s disease,” Biogen ( BIIB ) said. However, the 416-patient trial, in which patients received diranersen intrathecally, failed to reach its primary endpoint that assessed the dose-response for the 76-week change in the Clinical Dementia Rating–Sum of Boxes. The safety and tolerability profile of the drug was consistent with data from a Phase 1b trial and its established safety profile. “We are excited by these Phase 2 data, which give us the confidence to advance diranersen to registrational development,” said Priya Singhal, Biogen’s ( BIIB ) head of development.

For every standing ovation there’s a riotous backlash – the film festival’s history is littered with boos, protests, furious rows and career-defining disasters Part of the appeal of Cannes is its sense of old-school glamour. It is, however, a shame that the glamour often comes at the expense of logic and practicality. In 2015, a group of women were barred from the gala screening of Todd Haynes’ historical lesbian romance Carol for not adhering to the rule that women must wear high heels. The same happened to producer Valeria Richter, even though part of her left foot had been amputated. A year later, Julia Roberts made her displeasure about this known by walking the red carpet barefoot. Continue reading...

M. Suhail/iStock Editorial via Getty Images TD Cowen upgraded Starbucks ( SBUX ) to a Buy rating on Thursday after having the coffee chain stock set at Hold. Analyst Andrew Charles said Starbucks ( SBUX ) has numerous tangible drivers to deliver positive sales revisions in a strong category backdrop. Amid ongoing labor investments, Charles and his team forecast margins will still recover for Starbucks ( SBUX ) due to expectations for sales leverage, easing COGS, and incentivized non-core cost cuts. The firm is confident that Starbucks ( SBUX ) management can deliver sales and EPS upside to justify its earnings estimate. "Under CEO Brian Niccol, we believe the company has identified and sequenced a durable, multifaceted brand revitalization plan that is in early innings," highlighted Charles. "This is centered on operations, marketing, beverage innovation, and loyalty/digital," he added. The expectation is that positive sales revisions, along with easing commodity costs and management incentives to achieve at least $800M of cost cuts by the end of 2027, will allow the model to close in on $4.00 of EPS in 2028. TD Cowen boosted its price target on SBUX to $120. Shares of Starbucks ( SBUX ) were up 1.3% in premarket trading to $107.28. The coffee chain stock carved out a new 52-week high of $108.05 on Wednesday.

Welcome to our guide to the commodities driving the global economy. Today, reporter Will Mathis looks at the pitfalls of Europe’s burgeoning solar industry. Is it possible to have too much green power? Europe has been building solar farms at an astonishing clip in recent years, but it’s starting to confront the limits of that boom. At peak production hours on sunny days, there’s so much electricity being generated that grids can’t cope . And that means solar panels are increasingly being shut off. In the coming months, about 40 terawatt-hours of electricity — enough to power Greater London for a year — could go to waste, according to researchers at BloombergNEF. It’s an uncomfortable moment to be frittering away energy. Europe is feeling the effects of a tighter global gas market following the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and higher prices are likely to curb gas-fired generation, according to Wood Mackenzie Ltd. Politicians across the region have been pushing for increased reliance on homegrown energy, but an abundance of solar is useless if grids can’t take it. For European consumers, it’s bad news. They’ve already forked out to fund the billions of euros of subsidies that underpinned solar’s growth. Now that the technology is cheap and commercially competitive, they’re getting hit with the cost of compensating solar plants when they’re ordered to turn off. This kind of confounding situation is emblematic of the energy transition’s growing pains. Installing lots of new solar and wind is easy when those technologies account for just a small fraction of the overall grid. But with Europe working on a wholesale phaseout of fossil fuels , the ballooning share of renewables presents a raft of new problems. The solution will involve an extensive build-out of batteries — an expansion that’s already in the works . But Europe will also have to rein in subsidies further, channeling them more selectively to projects that really need them. Indeed, the market has already tak...
