narvo vexar Anthropic ( ANTHRO ) has acquired Coefficient Bio, a biotech focused on developing AI models for biological research, for slightly more than $400M, according to The Information and a report from Eric Newcomer. Coefficient Bio, comprising about 10 people, is set to join Anthropic’s ( ANTHRO ) Health Care Life Sciences team led by Eric Kauderer-Abrams following the all-stock buyout deal. The New York-based company, half-owned by the venture capital firm Dimension, was formally launched only eight months ago by Samuel Stanton and Nathan C. Frey. In the past, the duo had worked in computational drug discovery at the drug discovery unit of Roche’s ( RHHBY ) ( RHHBF ) Genentech unit. The deal represents Amazon ( AMZN ) and Google ( GOOG ) ( GOOGL )-backed Anthropic’s ( ANTHRO ) latest foray into healthcare. In October, the company introduced Claude for Life Sciences, an AI-based tool for scientific discoveries, just months after hiring longtime industry veteran Kauderer-Abrams as its head of biology and life sciences.

DHS Rescinds Policy Requiring Secretary Review Of Contracts Above $100,000 Authored by Kimberly Hayek via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) rescinded a policy on March 31 that required the department secretary to personally approve every contract and grant exceeding $100,000. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the Department of Homeland Security in Washington on Feb. 17, 2026. Madalina Kilroy/The Epoch Times Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin issued the reversal across all DHS components, including Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The change ends an earlier directive from former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem that required the secretary’s office to handle routine purchasing decisions previously handled at lower levels. However, contracts and grants above $25 million will still require secretary review. DHS stated that the move will “streamline the contract process and empower components to carry out their mission to protect the homeland and make America safe again.” The department told The Epoch Times in a statement that Mullin “re-evaluated the contract processes to make sure DHS is serving the American taxpayer efficiently.” Mullin signaled the shift at the department during his confirmation hearing this month. “ I’m not a micromanager, ” he said, referring to Noem’s policy. “ We put people in, we empower them to make decisions. What is required to come up to my level, we'll make decisions .” Noem’s policy, signed shortly after she took office in 2025, sought to tighten oversight of taxpayer dollars at a time when DHS managed billions in contracts for border security, immigration detention, and disaster response. In September 2025, a Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee review found 1,034 Federal Emergency Management Agency contracts, grants, or disaster-assistance awards that were pending or delayed. The average approv...

It's been a bumpy ride as of late for CarMax (NYSE: KMX) . A turnaround could be in store, though. As of March 16, the auto retailer has a new CEO in Keith Barr. The leadership transition marks the end of uncertainty in the company's C-suite. The stock, which is down over 40% in the past 12 months, is trading at a discount and could be a solid buying opportunity now. There are execution risks and rough roads to navigate in the used-car market, but CarMax is charting a new path for itself, and the turnaround has begun. Should investors consider buying CarMax while it's under $45? Let's take a look at how the largest retailer of used cars in U.S. is faring. CarMax is a company in transition. In addition to the new CEO, CarMax is facing pressure from activist investor Starboard Value.

It will take more than a thumping FA Cup quarter-final victory over the worst team in League One to ignite Chelsea’s season as it enters the defining stretch. This was, at least, a step in the right direction. Or, perhaps, it was just good for the club to avoid any further chaos.

It will take more than a thumping FA Cup quarter-final victory over the worst team in League One to ignite Chelsea’s season as it enters the defining stretch. This was, at least, a step in the right direction. Or, perhaps, it was just good for the club to avoid any further chaos. The occasion was framed by Liam Rosenior’s decision to ban his vice-captain, Enzo Fernández, for the game and Chelsea’s next one, which is here against Manchester City in the Premier League next Sunday. The manager felt he had to act after Fernández’s none-too-subtle message to Real Madrid during the international break. Basically, he is bang up for joining them. Continue reading...
