Biotech Stock Ends Week On High Note Following Bullish Coverage Initiation

Biotech Stock Ends Week On High Note Following Bullish Coverage Initiation

Globe and Mail02-05-2025

A New Jersey-based biotech found success to finish out the week after it was announced that TD Cowen initiated coverage on the company with a buy rating and a price target of $12. Seeing that this micro cap closed yesterday at just $2.71, it's now wonder traders rushed in.
So far this session, the buying pressure was enough to get shares of Grace Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq:GRCE) up to $2.8604/share (+5.55%) at the early session high. This move is a strong continuation of the success this stock has had so far this month.
Grace Therapeutics, Inc. engages in the development and commercialization of pharmaceutical products for rare and orphan diseases in Canada. The company's lead product candidate is the GTX-104, an intravenous infusion to treat subarachnoid hemorrhage. It also develops GTX-102, an oral mucosal betamethasone spray for the treatment of ataxia-telangiectasia; and GTX-101, a topical bioadhesive film-forming bupivacaine spray for postherpetic neuralgia. The company was formerly known as Acasti Pharma Inc. and changed its name to Grace Therapeutics, Inc. in October 2024. The company was incorporated in 2002 and is headquartered in Princeton, New Jersey.

Cautious Americans delay summer travel, await better deals

WASHINGTON, D.C. Forget bucket lists; this summer, it's all about budget lists. Amid economic uncertainty and a weaker dollar, Americans are growing cautious about travel. From flights and hotels to rental cars, many are delaying bookings or scaling back plans entirely, hoping to snag better deals closer to the date. It's a trend that's starting to worry the travel industry. Hotel bookings are flat or declining, and airline reservations are down—even though airfare has become cheaper. Big travel players like Delta, Marriott, and Booking Holdings have lowered or withdrawn their 2025 forecasts as U.S. demand softens. Airbnb also flagged that more users are waiting until the last minute to confirm trips. That hesitation has left companies with less visibility on what the second half of the year will look like. Delta said in April it was too early to predict the full-year outlook given current economic uncertainty. United Airlines echoed that, warning that bookings could slow further. "It's very clear that consumers are waiting to make decisions, including for the summer," said Southwest Airlines CEO Robert Jordan at a recent industry conference. He added that while demand is stable, it's lower than expected earlier this year. According to Flighthub, summer flight bookings in the U.S. are down 10 percent compared to last year despite a 7 percent drop in average prices. Long-haul flights are seeing even steeper discounts — with tickets to destinations like Sydney, Australia down 23 percent. "You can't keep an airline seat on the shelf in a warehouse," said Steve Hafner, CEO of Kayak. "If you don't fill that seat tomorrow and the airplane flies, it's gone." Hotel bookings are showing the same pattern. "They've actually fallen off, and it gets weaker like a month out," said Hyatt CEO Mark Hoplamazian. "By the time you get to that month, it recovers." CoStar data shows bookings in major U.S. cities are flat-to-down. Room rates are only expected to rise by 1.3 percent in 2025 — down from a 1.8 percent increase in 2024. "We're not getting that crazy pricing power we got in the early days of the recovery," said Marriott CEO Anthony Capuano. Some hotels are already sweetening deals, offering free nights or special packages to drive bookings. "That's what Jackie Lafferty is hoping for," the story notes. The Los Angeles PR director has shifted her plans from Hawaii or Florida to a California-based vacation. "By the time we broke down the cost of the flights, the hotel and the rental car, it looked expensive, it felt unreasonable," she said. Meanwhile, the weakening dollar is nudging travelers to stay closer to home. In March, a Deloitte survey showed Americans planned to increase summer travel budgets by 13 percent. But by April, they were budgeting roughly the same as last year. "The dollar is just not going as far, and I think people are starting to realize that," said Chirag Panchal, CEO of luxury travel firm Ensuite Collection. His U.S.-based clients are now favoring Canada or the Caribbean over Europe. Rachel Cabeza, a New Jersey-based actor and fitness instructor, sums it up: "We might go international at the end of the summer. If we do, it will be last-minute and spur of the moment based on cheaper flights." For now, her only confirmed trip is a local getaway to Martha's Vineyard.

Amid the Turmoil, Is Now a Good Time to Buy Tesla Stock?

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) might be the most discussed stock in the history of stocks. You might think there's nothing new to be said -- and that investors should just buy it and hold on. But as someone who has been watching Tesla stock since its IPO in 2010, I think the forces moving the stock have changed a great deal in the last several years -- and I think the bull case for Tesla has some big problems. For starters, Tesla's sales aren't going in the right direction. But there's a deeper reason to think twice about Tesla stock as well. Tesla's car business is going in the wrong direction Not too long ago, it was still possible to believe that huge growth was inevitable for Tesla. The developed world was moving quickly toward a zero-emissions future, and Tesla had the best electric vehicles one could buy -- and it was scaling up to build millions more every year. What could go wrong? A lot, it turned out. Between CEO Elon Musk's foray into right-wing politics, Tesla's aging product line, and the growing number of excellent EVs from other automakers, Tesla's sales have been hit hard. Global sales were down 13% in the first quarter of 2025 from a year earlier. In Europe and China -- arguably the two most critical global markets for EVs right now -- they're down even further so far in the second quarter, while overall sales of EVs continue to rise. Musk's answer has been to make -- or at least talk up -- an aggressive pivot to robotaxis. Tesla has claimed that its service's costs will be far below market leader Waymo's, in large part because Tesla doesn't bother with the expensive lidar sensors that Waymo considers critical to safety. While an optimist might say that cost advantage will lead to market domination, a more realistic view is that Tesla is taking a huge safety risk by sticking with its camera-only system -- a risk that the robotaxi business could end abruptly in a single news cycle if something goes badly wrong. Of course, with Tesla's valuation currently hovering around $1 trillion (a mere 169 times its revenue over the last year), it's reasonable to think that total robotaxi market domination is already built into the company's share price. That's a problem if the robotaxi push goes awry. But the real problem with Tesla stock is that none of that matters much anymore. Tesla's stock price isn't really about its business now Tesla's valuation these days is mostly a reflection of how the popularity and success of Elon Musk is viewed in any given moment. It's very similar to the dynamics behind meme coins, cryptocurrencies that generally lack any purpose (or put another way, any fundamental value) beyond the cultural value they hold and the communities that surround them. As my colleague Anders Bylund recently wrote: Meme coins spotlight the power of community and sentiment in the digital age. Their value is largely driven by social media, celebrity endorsements, and the broader meme culture that thrives on the internet. Tesla does have some fundamental value, of course -- the car and energy-storage businesses, the (maybe) robotaxi business, and the (someday, maybe, perhaps) humanoid-robot business. But the car business, the part that has generated most of Tesla's revenue to date, is trending in the wrong direction. That's a situation that would drive the stocks of most other automakers down to just a few times earnings. It hasn't hit Tesla stock that way -- at least, not yet -- because of Musk's outsized public presence and huge promises. But take a step back: If your hope is to buy Tesla stock now and make a fortune, be aware that ship may have long since sailed. The only reason to buy Tesla now On the other hand, there's certainly a strong community around Tesla -- and a smaller, but still strong, community of those who remain very bullish on the stock and love to discuss its twists and turns. If joining that latter community appeals to you, a very small position in Tesla might still be worthwhile. But as a long-term investment, here in 2025 I think you owe it to yourself to find something sturdier than Tesla stock. Don't miss this second chance at a potentially lucrative opportunity Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks? Then you'll want to hear this. On rare occasions, our expert team of analysts issues a 'Double Down' stock recommendation for companies that they think are about to pop. If you're worried you've already missed your chance to invest, now is the best time to buy before it's too late. And the numbers speak for themselves: Nvidia: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2009, you'd have $367,516!* Apple: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2008, you'd have $38,712!* Netflix: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2004, you'd have $669,517!* Right now, we're issuing 'Double Down' alerts for three incredible companies, available when you join Stock Advisor, and there may not be another chance like this anytime soon.
