Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. AbbVie is conducting a Phase 2 study titled 'A Multicenter, Open-Label, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Venetoclax-Obinutuzumab Retreatment in Patients With Recurring Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia.' The study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of retreatment with venetoclax and obinutuzumab in adults with recurring chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). This study is significant as CLL is the most common form of leukemia, and finding effective retreatment options is crucial for patient outcomes. The intervention being tested involves the use of venetoclax, an oral tablet, and obinutuzumab, an intravenous infusion. These drugs are administered in 28-day cycles, with participants receiving either 12 or 24 total cycles depending on their cohort. The purpose is to evaluate the change in disease activity and monitor adverse events. The study design is interventional, with a non-randomized, parallel assignment model, and no masking. The primary purpose is treatment. Participants are divided into two cohorts based on the timing of their CLL symptom recurrence after previous treatment. The study began on March 28, 2022, with an estimated primary completion date yet to be determined. The latest update was submitted on July 21, 2025. These dates are crucial for tracking the study's progress and potential market impact. This study update could influence AbbVie's stock performance and investor sentiment, as successful outcomes may enhance the company's portfolio in CLL treatments. It also positions AbbVie competitively within the oncology market, where effective CLL therapies are in demand. The study is ongoing, and further details are available on the ClinicalTrials portal.

Regulatory Tailwinds Likely to Drive Cryptocurrency Momentum: 5 Picks
The cryptocurrency market has been witnessing a strong rally this month. Bitcoin (BTC), the largest cryptocurrency globally, touched the all-time high of 123,091.61 on July 14. Thereafter, it hovers around 118,000. Ethereum (ETH) rebounded sharply and is up more than 57% in the past month. Positive developments on the global tariff and trade front and the evaporation of a near-term recession fear in the U.S. economy boosted cryptocurrencies. Meanwhile, this space gathers momentum predominantly through favorable regulatory developments. At this stage, it should be fruitful to invest in crypto-centric stocks with a favorable Zacks Rank for near-term gain. Five such stocks are: Robinhood Markets Inc. HOOD, Interactive Brokers Group Inc. IBKR, IREN Ltd. IREN, Visa Inc. V and Cipher Mining Inc. CIFR. Regulatory Tailwinds On July 18, President Donald Trump signed the GENIUS Act (Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins) seeking to regulate the stablecoin market of the nation. Stablecoins are digital assets that are built to maintain a stable value relative to a 'stable' asset like the US dollar. Giant retailers such as Walmart and Amazon are considering launching their own stablecoins to reduce dependence on traditional payment networks like plastic money. Two major cryptocurrency-related regulations still pending are The CLARITY Act and The Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act. The CLARITY Act aims to define when crypto is a commodity or a security. The CLARITY Act would establish a regulatory framework for digital assets other than stablecoins. This will allow crypto exchanges to register with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission thereby reducing the Securities and Exchange Commission's regulation of digital currencies. The Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act aims to prevent the Federal Reserve from issuing a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) directly to individuals or indirectly through intermediaries. The bill also prohibits the Federal Reserve from developing or issuing a CBDC without explicit authorization from Congress. The chart below shows the price performance of our five picks in the past month. Robinhood Markets Inc. Robinhood Markets operates a financial services platform in the United States. Its platform allows users to invest in stocks, exchange-traded funds, options, gold, and cryptocurrencies. HOOD buys and sells Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, and other cryptocurrencies using its Robinhood Crypto platform. Given the higher retail participation in markets, HOOD's trading revenues are expected to improve in the near future. Buyouts and product diversification efforts to become a leader in the active trader market will likely bolster its financials. HOOD's vertical integration will likely enhance its product velocity. Further, a robust liquidity position will help HOOD in sustainable share repurchases. HOOD currently sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank stocks here. Robinhood Markets has an expected revenue and earnings growth rate of 26.8% and 20.2%, respectively, for the current year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for current-year earnings has improved 6.5% over the last 30 days. Interactive Brokers Group Inc. Zacks Rank #1 Interactive Brokers Group is a global automated electronic broker. IBKR executes, processes and trades in cryptocurrencies. IBKR's commodities futures trading desk also offers customers a chance to trade cryptocurrency futures. IBKR's efforts to develop proprietary software, lower compensation expenses relative to net revenues, enhance its emerging market customers and global footprint, along with relatively high rates, are expected to continue aiding revenues. IBKR's initiatives to expand its product suite and the reach of its services will support financials. Interactive Brokers Group has an expected revenue and earnings growth rate of 7.4% and 9.7%, respectively, for the current year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for current-year earnings has improved 9.7% in the last 30 days. IREN Ltd. IREN is a Bitcoin mining company.

IREN currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). IREN has an expected revenue and earnings growth rate of 86.1% and more than 100%, respectively, for the current year (ending June 2026). The Zacks Consensus Estimate for current-year earnings has improved 17.3% over the last 30 days. Visa Inc. Zacks Rank #2 Visa's ongoing shift to digital payments is advantageous for Visa, with strong domestic volumes supporting its overall performance. V is taking a significant step toward modernizing cross-border money movement. In a move aimed at enhancing the efficiency of global transactions, V is expanding its stablecoin settlement capabilities to the high-performing Solana blockchain. This expansion of V includes collaboration with prominent merchant acquirers Worldpay and Nuvei, marking a pivotal development in the world of digital payments. Visa has an expected revenue and earnings growth rate of 10.3% and 13.1%, respectively, for the current year (ending September 2025). The Zacks Consensus Estimate for current-year earnings has improved 0.1% over the last 30 days. Cipher Mining Inc. Zacks Rank #2 Cipher Mining is an industrial-scale bitcoin mining company. CIFR also offers high-performance computing (HPC) services, such as artificial intelligence.

PowerBank's 3.79 MW Geddes Solar Project Goes Live, Powering New Bitcoin Treasury Strategy
TORONTO, July 29, 2025 /CNW/ - PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: SUUN; Cboe CA: SUNN, FSE: 103), a leader in distributed solar energy, battery storage, and clean energy infrastructure across North America, is excited to announce that its largest owned-and-operated asset in the U.S.—the 3.79 MW Geddes Solar Power Project in New York State—is now fully operational. More than a milestone in renewable energy, this project marks the official launch of PowerBank's Bitcoin treasury strategy. "This is a pivotal moment for PowerBank," said Dr. Richard Lu, President and CEO. "Geddes isn't just our largest U.S. asset—it's our launchpad into a bold, dual-track strategy that fuses clean energy leadership with financial innovation. By deploying net cash generated by this project into Bitcoin, we are enhancing the value of our operating assets while aligning ourselves with a future-focused monetary reserve model." A Strategic Inflection Point – Energy + Bitcoin: Pioneering Treasury Strategy. Geddes is the first of potentially several PowerBank projects to support a digital asset reserve model, giving the Company exposure to Bitcoin as a non-correlated, asymmetric upside asset. Financial Flexibility. This approach allows PowerBank to retain earnings from high-performance assets like Geddes in a store of value with long-term appreciation potential. Environmental Transformation. By converting a capped landfill into a clean power station, PowerBank demonstrates how sustainability and innovation can converge for long-term value creation. Scalability. The Company is actively assessing expansion of this Bitcoin treasury strategy across additional solar and battery energy storage projects in its IPP (Independent Power Producer) portfolio. The Geddes Solar Power Operation Built on a repurposed landfill, the Geddes Project now delivers 3.79 MW of clean, renewable energy — enough to power approximately 450 homes annually — while transforming an underutilized site into a productive asset. But its value extends beyond green power. Net cash flows from the project will be allocated, at management's discretion, to the acquisition of Bitcoin, creating a hybrid strategy that blends energy generation with strategic digital asset investment. Solar Simplified handles all customer-facing activities for the Company's community solar projects, allowing it to focus on developing and expanding its renewable energy portfolio. Solar Simplified's expertise in acquisition, enrollment, and management ensures full project subscription and maximized revenue from day one. With a business model that aligns seamlessly with the Company's, this partnership drives sustainable growth, enabling the Company to accelerate development, bring more projects online each year, and create greater value for its business and the communities served by the Company. Additional Information: Bitcoin purchases will be funded through excess cash generated by the Geddes Project, after meeting all capital expenditures, debt service obligations, and operational requirements. Timing, size, and frequency of purchases will be determined by market conditions, Bitcoin pricing, cash needs, and regulatory factors. No Bitcoin has been purchased as of the date of this release. Custody and security frameworks are currently under evaluation and will be finalized prior to any acquisitions.
