Longleaf Partners Fund stated the following regarding CNX Resources Corporation (NYSE:CNX) in its Q1 2025 investor letter:
"CNX Resources – Natural gas company CNX Resources was a detractor for the quarter. While CNX Resources Corporation (NYSE:CNX) was one of our stronger performers in 2024, it started the year with a disappointing outcome regarding government incentives for its coal mine methane gas capture program. The incentives were below our unrisked upside case that could have helped our value by $10-20/share+. While this was a disappointing few dollars per share hit to our risked value, the silver lining is that both we and CNX were able to buy more shares at a price that, in our view, does not fully appreciate all the other good things going on at the company. CNX remains focused on what is within its control, leveraging its low-cost structure and disciplined hedging strategy to generate FCF in a variety of price environments."

Stock futures are near flat as U.S.-China trade talks continue, May inflation report looms: Live updates
Traders work on the floor at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York City, U.S., March 19, 2025. Brendan Mcdermid | Reuters Stock futures were little changed on Tuesday evening as investors awaited progress on trade policy talks between the U.S. and China. They also anticipated the release of May's consumer inflation report. Futures tied to the S&P 500 slipped 0.07%, while Nasdaq 100 futures pulled back 0.05%. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures lost 28 points, or 0.07%. Trade talks between U.S. and Beijing officials continued for a second day in London on Tuesday. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he would be departing the ongoing trade talks with China, but U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer would remain to continue the negotiations. Discussions could extend into Wednesday if needed, Lutnick said earlier. The discussions are a key focus for investors and a broader market that remains jittery toward any jolts on trade policy. Both China and the U.S. previously agreed to temporarily pause high tariffs on one another in May, although a fully ironed out agreement has yet to materialize. In regular trading on Tuesday, the S&P 500 rose about 0.6%, posting a third straight positive session. The broad market index sits less than 2% off the high it notched in February. The Nasdaq Composite added 0.6% on Tuesday, while the 30-stock Dow climbed 0.3%. Even as stocks have been resurging, tariff fears and rising bond yields could hang over the market, according to Deutsche Bank. "One key concern is that the Trump administration, buoyed by the market rebound, may resume aggressive tariff rhetoric—potentially triggering renewed retaliation from China and Europe, as seen earlier this year," the firm's group chief economist David Folkerts-Landau said in a Tuesday note. "At the same time, rising long-end bond yields are amplifying fiscal concerns globally, particularly given plans for expanded deficits across multiple major economies," he added. "With several countries already on unsustainable debt paths, the events of 2025 may have accelerated an inevitable reckoning." Investors will get further insight into the U.S. economy on Wednesday morning as the Bureau of Labor Statistics rolls out May's reading of the consumer price index. Economists polled by Dow Jones call for a 0.2% month-over-month increase, while headline CPI is anticipated to have grown 2.4% from 12 months earlier. A hot report could spook investors who are already on edge over inflationary pressures. "Ultimately this report is not expected to cause any significant changes to the Fed's current wait and see approach when it comes to setting rates," said Sam Millette, director of fixed income at Commonwealth Financial Network. "With that being said, we'll have to wait and see if the report shows the anticipated modest rise in price pressure that's expected or if there are any surprises in store for investors." On the earnings front Wednesday, traders will look for reports from Chewy and Oracle .

OncoACP3 is a small molecule ligand with high affinity and specificity for Acid Phosphatase 3 (ACP3), a novel target in prostate cancer. The compound is currently under evaluation in a company-sponsored Phase I trial (NCT06840535). Initial data from the first cohort of patients evaluated with the OncoACP3 diagnostic has been promising, displaying selective tumour uptake and long residence time with minimal healthy tissue uptake. IND-enabling activities to support the application for a Phase I therapeutic study with 225Ac-OncoACP3 are ongoing. Prof. Dr. Dario Neri, CEO and CSO of Philogen, commented: 'We are delighted to enter into this new collaboration with RayzeBio, a leader in the field of radiopharmaceutical medicines. This partnership will focus on the development and commercialization of OncoACP3 for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications in prostate cancer. OncoACP3 is a best-in-class targeting agent with the potential to become a breakthrough treatment in this field. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to translating scientific innovation into meaningful clinical solutions, making OncoACP3 therapies widely available to patients in need.' Ben Hickey, President, RayzeBio commented: 'This collaboration with Philochem enhances our leadership in the rapidly advancing radiopharmaceuticals space, consistent with our strategy to bring forward best-in-class RPT candidates. OncoACP3, with its initial encouraging safety profile, provides a differentiated entry for Bristol Myers Squibb and RayzeBio into the prostate cancer arena, building on our leadership in actinium-based RPT development. This agreement is a significant milestone for RayzeBio and our goal to deliver radiopharmaceuticals to patients.' Under the terms of the agreement, Philochem will receive an up-front payment of $350m and up to $1.0bn in development, regulatory and commercial milestones. The company will also receive mid-single to low double-digit royalties payable on Global Net Sales of both Therapeutic and Diagnostic agents of OncoACP3. The closing of the transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. The parties expect that the agreement will close in the third quarter of 2025.
