Anne Wojcicki's bid to buy back 23andMe may not end a legal fight over DNA customer data
Anne Wojcicki's winning bid to reclaim control of 23andMe (MEHCQ) doesn't necessarily end the fight over what happens to the DNA of 15 million people collected by the bankrupt consumer genomics company. A nonprofit controlled by Wojcicki, TTAM Research Institute, has outbid large-cap drugmaker Regeneron (REGN) amid mounting opposition to a proposed sale. Wojcicki was the co-founder and former CEO of 23andMe. A hearing to discuss approval of the purchase is set for Wednesday. A bankruptcy judge's approval is required to go ahead with the transaction. The winning bid came days after members of Congress questioned Wojcicki about the fate of the DNA data, and more than half of states across the country sued 23andMe's bankruptcy estate to stop the sale of its consumers' biological samples, health-related traits, and medical records. Brian Focht, a data privacy lawyer, said the sensitivity of the data is a good reason for the court and consumers to view TTAM's proposal with caution. 'This is information that's immutable. It's a permanent part of your identity,' Focht said. 'You can't change the way that you can change almost everything, including your social security number, your name, and your bank account number.' Although TTAM's ownership of the data may resolve some of the privacy concerns, a consumer watchdog report filed with the bankruptcy court last Wednesday said a sale of 23andMe to any buyer, including TTAM, creates unique challenges. That's because it involves the possible transfer of consumer data that is "significantly more sensitive" than consumer data involved in prior bankruptcy cases. While Wojcicki has pledged to effectively run TTAM as the same type of business as 23andMe, Focht noted that she was in charge during a period in 2023 when 23andMe disclosed privacy and cybersecurity lapses that exposed data, potentially including genetic data, on approximately 7 million customers. "So it's probably a bit foolishly optimistic to think that her re-takeover of the company will somehow make all the concerns disappear," he said. The bankruptcy court's watchdog expressed the same concern in a report filed Wednesday with the court. Because TTAM is a nonprofit, it said, it could possibly operate outside the scope of many data protection laws, potentially creating a "privacy and security enforcement and accountability vacuum." "That's a legitimate concern," said Gary Kibel, a privacy and data security partner with the law firm Davis+Gilbert, because most state consumer privacy laws do not apply to nonprofit entities. 23andMe did not respond to a request for comment on the proposed bid. The question of 23andMe's right to sell the data has not been tested in court. And because it is a direct-to-consumer company, as opposed to a healthcare provider, the data is not protected by federal laws, such as HIPAA. Nineteen states do have laws that require a company to obtain consent to process sensitive customer information. And some states have adopted stand-alone consumer health data privacy laws that create a higher standard of consent for the transfer of consumer health data to third parties, Kibel said. A regulator could consider whether a transfer of sensitive consumer data complies with those state laws. Outside of those state rules, Kibel said, every state has "UDAAP" laws that protect consumers against unfair or deceptive acts and practices, and the US Federal Trade Commission has made it clear that bankruptcy does not automatically entitle a company to transfer consumers' personal information. Last week, 28 state attorneys general and the attorney general for the District of Columbia filed complaints in 23andMe's bankruptcy case claiming that the company's assets don't include its consumers' DNA and other personal information. And that's especially for those who signed agreements with the company prior to June 8, 2022, when terms stated that '23andMe will not sell, lease, or rent your individual-level information to a third party for research purposes without your explicit consent," the states alleged. 23andMe later amended its privacy policy to include the transfer of consumer data in the event of a bankruptcy. The privacy lawyers said that whether the policy change holds up under a challenge would depend on whether or not state law prohibits it. Daniel Gielchinsky, a bankruptcy lawyer with DGIM Law, said, "In light of the [watchdog's] report and the objections filed by the various states, it is likely that the bankruptcy court would not give [TTAM] the same rights in the data that 23andMe currently has." Another wrinkle for the bankruptcy court, according to Focht, is that the state law that applies to each of 23andMe's consumers depends on where they currently live, and not where they lived at the time they consented to 23andMe's terms. The watchdog's report raised a third concern over TTAM's purchase of 23andMe. It said the company's telemedicine subsidiary, Lemonaid Health, would potentially be included in a sale and the relationship between the companies could prove complicated given the "evolving legal landscape for personal health records and the sensitivity with health data." Lawmakers have expressed concern that foreign nations could gain access to Americans' genetic data. In 2015, 23andMe accepted a $10 million investment from WuXi Healthcare Ventures, which had ties to the Chinese Communist Party. The company has since been bought by Frontline BioVentures, which formed a new healthcare investment venture known as 6 Dimensions Capital. During testimony before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday, Wojcicki promised that 23andMe would not sell customers' DNA data to foreign adversaries, specifically China, Russia, and North Korea. Uttara Ananthakrishnan, a professor of information systems at Carnegie Mellon University, said use of genetic data should be held to a higher level of consent than the consent required for other data, like credit scores, search data, and location data. 'I don't think people have realized the seriousness of this all, because it's really novel,' Ananthakrishnan said. 'Thirty years down the line, we don't know what's going to happen with this data, what kind of new technologies are going to come in. You might have [an AI model] trained on really granular genetic data that can predict job outcomes, insurance.' But Kibel said, "Maybe this spurs Congress to realize, 'You know what? We need a federal comprehensive consumer privacy law, because we don't have one.'" Alexis Keenan is a legal reporter for Yahoo Finance. Follow Alexis on X @alexiskweed.

A Unique Event for the S&P 500 Just Occurred -- Its 6th Time in 75 Years -- and It Has a 100% Success Rate of Forecasting Future Stock Returns
Though no asset class can match the average annual return of stocks over the long run, getting from Point A to B can be a wild ride. Stock market volatility is unlikely to taper anytime soon. An exceptionally rare outperformance for the broad-based S&P 500 should put a big smile on the faces of optimistic long-term investors. 10 stocks we like better than S&P 500 Index › Investors have a lot of ways to grow their wealth, including acquiring real estate, purchasing Treasury or corporate bonds, and buying commodities like gold, silver, and oil. While all of these investment channels have increased the nominal wealth of investors over the long run, none has held a candle to the annualized return of stocks over the last century. Although Wall Street's major stocks indexes -- the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI), S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC), and Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) -- have a knack for increasing in value over long periods, they can deliver roller-coaster volatility over shorter timelines. For example, shortly after the benchmark S&P 500 hit its record-closing high on Feb. 19, the Dow Jones and S&P 500 would fall into correction territory within a matter of weeks. Volatility was even more pronounced in the growth-fueled Nasdaq Composite, which officially fell into a bear market in April. But volatility tends to beget opportunity on Wall Street. While the S&P 500 was enduring its fifth-steepest two-day percentage decline in early April, it was, in hindsight, setting up for a unique event that's historically had an exemplary track record of forecasting future stock returns. Although the stock market's premier measure of volatility, the CBOE Volatility Index, has plummeted from its recent high at the fastest pace in history, there's little reason to believe the catalysts that whipsawed Wall Street in March and April are going away anytime soon. For example, the aforementioned two-day swoon in the S&P 500 that cost the index 10.5% of its value was precipitated by President Donald Trump introducing his tariff and trade policy. Following the close of trading on April 2, the president announced a 10% sweeping global tariff along with higher "reciprocal tariff rates" for a few dozen countries that have historically maintained adverse trade imbalances with America. To be upfront, the terms of this initial unveiling have changed quite a bit. On April 9, Trump placed a 90-day pause of all reciprocal tariffs save for China. Roughly a month later, the U.S. and China agreed to reduce many of their reciprocal tariffs for a period of 90 days. Nevertheless, Wall Street craves consistency and predictability, and it's getting nothing of the sort from the current administration. The bigger concern is what might happen if Trump's tariff and trade policy sticks over a longer period (e.g., during a majority of his four-year term). Tariffs run the risk of worsening trade relations (even with allies), as well as increasing the prevailing rate of inflation domestically. While some businesses may choose to eat some or all of the tariff costs, these expenses can also get passed along to consumers. There's also been concern about how the bond market has responded in recent months. Although the Federal Reserve is currently in a drawn-out rate-easing cycle, and that would normally lead to Treasury bond yields declining or flattening out, the closely watched 10-year Treasury yield has been climbing. The 10-year Treasury yield is typically viewed as the benchmark for long-term interest rates. If the 10-year yield is climbing, it means mortgage rates are likely to rise, as well. Further, it signals an expectation that the prevailing rate of inflation is going to pick back up, which is a worrisome scenario with the Fed still early in its rate-easing cycle. Long story short, there are some clear concerns about the health of the U.S. economy. The other troublesome factor that isn't going away anytime soon is Wall Street's nosebleed valuation premium. Even taking into consideration that "value" is a subjective term that's going to be different for every investor, the S&P 500's Shiller price-to-earnings (P/E) Ratio (also known as the cyclically adjusted P/E Ratio, or CAPE Ratio) leaves no wiggle room -- we're witnessing one of the most-expensive stock markets in history. In December, the Shiller P/E Ratio closed at a peak of 38.89, which represents the third-highest multiple in a continuous bull market dating back to January 1871. With the Shiller P/E recently topping 37, the historic priciness of stocks is likely to keep things volatile. But a little over one week ago, Wall Street's benchmark stock index, the S&P 500, did something that's only been recorded six times over the last 75 years. Historically speaking, when this event has occurred, it's been a surefire bull signal for investors. As you've probably noticed, stocks have bounced back in a meaningful way since the initial tariff-related swoon that took the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite to their lows for the year on April 8. However, you might not realize just how strong this rally in equities has been. Over a two-month period, ended June 9, 2025, the S&P 500 gained 20.8%. This tied for the fifth-biggest two-month percentage gain in the S&P 500 since 1950 and marked only the sixth time in 75 years that the index had gained at least 20% over a two-month time frame. What's worthwhile is examining how the S&P 500 performed in various periods following these extremely rare instances where it logged a 20%-plus percentage gain over two months. Based on data compiled by Carson Group's Chief Market Strategist Ryan Detrick, the S&P 500 was higher at every single time interval (one, three, six, and 12 months) following a two-month advance of at least 20%. What's even more impressive than this correlation (thus far) having a 100% success rate of forecasting future upside is just how far outside the historical norm the benchmark index climbed over the next 12 months following these unique events. Whereas the S&P 500 has averaged a 9.2% annual return since 1950, it's delivered an average (I repeat, average) return of 30.8% following the five prior instances where it achieved a 20%-plus two-month return. Based solely on this correlation, it would appear stocks are being given a green light to skyrocket higher. This is a good time to mention that just because something has worked in the past via a correlation, it doesn't guarantee it'll work in the future. Nevertheless, a 100% correlation rate with an average 12-month return of 30.8% would appear to offer a better than 50-50 chance of the bulls being right. What Ryan Detrick's data set also demonstrates is that emotion-driven volatility and fear tend to offer great investment opportunities on Wall Street. Even though we're never going to know ahead of time precisely when these elevator-down moves will begin, how long they'll last, or how steep the ultimate decline will be, we do have copious statistical data that shows just how disproportionate bull and bear markets actually are. Two years ago, the researchers at Bespoke Investment Group published a data set on X that openly compared and calculated the calendar-day length of every bull and bear market for the S&P 500 dating back to the start of the Great Depression in September 1929. Whereas the typical bear market resolved in 286 calendar days (about 9.5 months), the average bull market stuck around for 1,011 calendar days (approximately two years and nine months). Wagering on the stock market to bounce back after emotion-driven moves lower has historically been a genius move.

5 Dividend Stocks to Buy With $2,000 and Hold Forever
Dividend stocks can provide investors with regular payments, making them ideal for those seeking passive income. Companies that consistently pay dividends tend to outperform non-dividend-paying stocks with lower volatility. Because dividend payers tend to have sound, stable businesses, they can be a good source of income and stock price appreciation. 10 stocks we like better than Chubb › Investing in the stock market is an excellent way to build long-term wealth. For investors seeking passive income, dividend stocks are one way to turn your portfolio into a cash-generating machine. Not only that, but companies that pay dividends consistently tend to outperform those that don't. Research by Hartford Funds, in collaboration with Ned Davis Research, shows that dividend-paying companies have historically outperformed their non-dividend counterparts. Over a 50-year period, investors in dividend stocks enjoyed an annual return of approximately 9.2%, more than double the 4.3% return from non-dividend-paying stocks. Companies that consistently grow their dividend perform even better, with annual returns of 10.2% and lower volatility. If you're looking for dividend stocks that have reliably grown their payouts, here are five stocks to consider today. Chubb (NYSE: CB) is a major player in the global insurance market, providing coverage for a range of risks, including property and casualty insurance, life insurance, and reinsurance. The company has a strong history of conservative underwriting and generates revenue from a diverse range of insurance products. Chubb has consistently maintained steady underwriting profits and disciplined cash management. The company has increased its dividend for 32 consecutive years, showcasing its financial stability. It also generates substantial free cash flow to support its dividend payments and stock buybacks. With a 17% payout ratio, Chubb should have no problem supporting and growing its dividend. Cincinnati Financial (NASDAQ: CINF) is another example of a stable insurance business that has proven itself over time. Thanks to its disciplined approach to underwriting insurance policies and effective capital management, the insurer has raised its dividend payout for over 65 consecutive years, making it a member of the exclusive Dividend Kings club. In addition to its strong underwriting practices, Cincinnati's investment portfolio benefits from higher interest rates. It also invests in equities, which can boost returns during expanding bull markets. With a conservative balance sheet, a modest payout ratio, and consistent underwriting profits, Cincinnati Financial is another solid dividend grower stock to buy today. FactSet Research Systems (NYSE: FDS) provides financial data and analytics to institutional clients, generating steady, recurring revenue through its high client retention rates. Its scalable software-as-a-service (SaaS) and data-as-a-service (DaaS) models generate strong margins and free cash flow, powering its consistent dividend raises for over 27 consecutive years. With an expanding global footprint, FactSet continues to reinvest in product innovation while rewarding shareholders. Its subscription model ensures visibility and durability, making it a solid dividend grower to hold for the long haul. Aflac (NYSE: AFL) is a significant player in the supplemental health and life insurance industry, particularly in Japan and the United States. Its conservative management, low payout ratio, and strong excess capital generation have enabled it to increase dividends for over 42 years. Aflac's business thrives on consistent premium income, low volatility, and effective capital allocation, including buybacks. The company emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic stronger, as claims costs have decreased over the past several years, providing the stock with a boost. The company has also gotten a boost from higher interest rates, which have boosted its net investment income and enable it to reinvest cash from lower-yielding assets to higher-yielding ones. S&P Global (NYSE: SPGI) plays a pivotal role in financial markets, with its businesses encompassing credit ratings (S&P Ratings), indexes (S&P Dow Jones Indices), and data and analytics (S&P Global Market Intelligence). Its high-margin, recurring revenue businesses support substantial, growing dividends and robust buybacks. With a history of dividend increases over 53 consecutive years and a wide economic moat, S&P Global compounds earnings while returning capital to shareholders. Its pricing power and global demand for its services make it a durable dividend stock suited for long-term investors.
