Confused by latest order? How to calculate if your Jackson County assessment is within limits
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jackson County assessments are showing up in homeowner's mailboxes. Some people may be surprised at the increase after a May order from the State Tax Commission. Some taxpayers may receive tax refunds in June: When payments could arrive That order capped increases in each assessment period at 15% and set 2022 as a starting point for this year's assessments after 2023 assessments were heavily contested. But determining your maximum 2025 assessment is a little bit more complicated than a single multiplication or division. Legislator Sean Smith and Preston Smith (no relation) have been helping homeowners with appeals since assessments skyrocketed in 2023. This week as they went out again they've been getting questions about what the latest State Tax Commission Order and 15% cap really means. 'People look at it and the first thing they see is, I thought it was only going to be a 15% increase and that was the perception. I've probably answered it online 100 times,' Preston Smith said. 'A lot of people are contacting me thinking they only do the 15 percent once, but you have to do it twice,' Legislator Sean Smith explained. To illustrate how it works with the latest rules using 2022 assessments as the starting point, consider a home with a $100,000 assessed value in 2022. To calculate the maximum assessed value in 2023 multiply $100,000 by 1.15 which is $115,000. But then you have to multiply by 115% again to determine the maximum value a home could be assessed at this year. In this example it would be $132,250. The two 15% increases end up yielding a maximum increase of 32.25% during the two assessment periods. 'I would really urge people to do the math themselves to check it, check and really verify,' Preston Smith said. To do that, however, you have to know your home's 2022 assessed value, which according to those who have received this year's assessments, isn't on this year's notices. You can find that historical information online at the Jackson County Parcel Viewer or Ascend Web. If your increase ends up beyond the allowances under the State order or if you simply don't agree with your value, you still can appeal. Appeals have to be filed by July 14.

The county says estimated savings are included on notices, but are subject to change. Both Sean and Preston Smith say they are pressing the Assessor's Office for complete assessment data in 2022, 2023 and 2025 to see how much home values increased, and how many of those increases equated to the maximum allowed if no new construction was done under the State Tax Commission Order without a physical inspection.

H.C. Wainwright Reiterates Buy Rating on Immix Biopharma (IMMX) Following Promising Interim Results from NXC-201 Trial
On June 4, analyst Robert Burns of H.C. Wainwright reiterated a Buy rating on Immix Biopharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:IMMX) with a price target of $7.00. The analyst based the rating on the promising interim results from the NEXICART-2 Phase 1/2 clinical trial of NXC-201, presented at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting (ASCO 2025) in Chicago, Illinois. The trial assessed the efficacy of NXC-201 in patients with relapsed/refractory AL amyloidosis and delivered a 100% response rate, with a considerable portion attaining a complete hematologic response. The analyst reasoned that the absence of hematologic relapse or progression and the rapid mean time to response further highlight NXC-201's potential as a viable treatment. A doctor in a white coat discussing clinical trial results with a patient in an oncology practice. Burns also reasoned that NXC-201 appears to have a favorable safety profile, as no patients experienced severe cytokine release syndrome or neurotoxicity. While he highlighted the need for longer-term follow-up and the small sample size, the analyst stated that the interim results are promising when compared to existing treatments. This condition does not have FDA-approved agents, and there exists a fragmented treatment landscape post-frontline therapy, factors that suggest the notable market opportunity for NXC-201 and support the buy rating for Immix Biopharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:IMMX). Immix Biopharma, Inc. (NASDAQ:IMMX) is a biopharmaceutical company that develops therapies for inflammatory diseases and cancer. While we acknowledge the potential of IMMX as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

Jefferies Maintains Buy Rating on Rhythm Pharmaceuticals (RYTM), Sets $80 Price Target
In a report released on June 4, Dennis Ding from Jefferies maintained a Buy rating on Rhythm Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:RYTM) with a price target of $80.00. The analyst based the rating on the company's strategic developments and promising pipeline. One of the primary reasons behind the rating was the anticipated Phase II data for the oral treatment for hypothalamic obesity (HO). It is expected to deliver notable BMI reduction and has been de-risked, thereby extending the potential of the franchise beyond the current expiration dates. A scientist conducting research in a laboratory, studying a Petri dish with advanced biopharmaceuticals. The analyst stated that management is confident in the weekly subcutaneous (subQ) treatment, which closely aligns with the previously approved setmelanotide, and thus further adds to the positive outlook for Rhythm Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:RYTM). According to Ding, the setmelanotide Phase II open-label trial for Prader-Willi Syndrome can also pave the way for a significant opportunity if successful, even after its previous challenges. Management is focusing on patient starts instead of the immediate revenue post-launch, and this strategy supports the long-term growth prospects, according to the analyst. Rhythm Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:RYTM) is a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company that develops and commercializes therapeutics for the treatment of rare diseases. Its product pipeline includes IMCIVREE (setmelanotide), a precision medicine that treats hyperphagia and severe obesity caused by rare melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) diseases. The company also has other programs, including a preclinical suite of investigational candidates to treat congenital hyperinsulinism and a clinical development program for setmelanotide in other rare MC4R pathway diseases. While we acknowledge the potential of RYTM as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
