Three WorldTeams Set To Ignite LTdL 2025
KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 7 (Bernama) -- A total of 22 teams are set to participate in the 29th edition of the Le Tour de Langkawi (LTdL) cycling tour, which will take place from Sept 28 to Oct 5. Of the total, three WorldTeam (WT) outfits and eight ProTeams have confirmed their participation in the eight-day race, along with 10 continental teams, including two from Malaysia -- Terengganu Cycling Team (TSG) and Malaysia Pro Cycling -- as well as a national team from Malaysia. The three WT teams confirmed so far are XDS Astana Team from Kazakhstan, Team Picnic PostNL (Netherlands) -- known last season as DSM-Firmenich PostNL -- and Cofidis from France. bootstrap slideshow According to National Sports Council (NSC) Deputy Director-General Ariffin Mohd Ghani, the three WT teams match the number of elite teams that competed in last year's LTdL. He added that among the eight ProTeams, six had also raced in this year's three Grand Tours - Total Energies, Tudor Pro Cycling Team and Uno-X Mobility (Tour de France); VF Group-Bardiani CSF-Faizane and Team Polti VisitMalta (Giro d'Italia); and Burgos-BH (Vuelta a España). 'With nine teams from the Grand Tours participating, we can expect intense and exciting competition daily, beginning with Stage 1 in Langkawi and concluding at the Petronas Twin Towers (KLCC) in Stage 8. 'Although, for the second year running, there won't be a Hors Categorie climb to Genting Highlands, Stage 3 (Gerik–Pasir Puteh) and Stage 5 (Temerloh–Bukit Fraser) will be key battlegrounds in the general classification and King of the Mountains jersey contest. 'In fact, the competition is expected to remain fierce until the final days, especially with Stage 7 featuring the longest route of 214.6 km from Melaka to Medini, and the final 180 km stage from Tangkak to KLCC,' he said during a press conference announcing the teams today. Ariffin added that while full rider rosters from each team have yet to be confirmed, the LTdL is still expected to captivate cycling fans with its high level of competition and strong presence in the Asian circuit.

WisdomTree, Inc. (WT) Earnings Expected to Grow: Should You Buy?
Wall Street expects a year-over-year increase in earnings on higher revenues when WisdomTree, Inc. (WT) reports results for the quarter ended June 2025. While this widely-known consensus outlook is important in gauging the company's earnings picture, a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price is how the actual results compare to these estimates. The earnings report might help the stock move higher if these key numbers are better than expectations. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower. While the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's discussion of business conditions on the earnings call, it's worth handicapping the probability of a positive EPS surprise. Zacks Consensus Estimate This company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.18 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +12.5%. Revenues are expected to be $112.89 million, up 5.5% from the year-ago quarter. Estimate Revisions Trend The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 7.41% higher over the last 30 days to the current level. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period. Investors should keep in mind that the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts may not always get reflected in the aggregate change. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise Earnings Whisper Estimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. Our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction) -- has this insight at its core. The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier. Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model's predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only. A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP. Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell). How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for WisdomTree, Inc.? For WisdomTree, Inc., the Most Accurate Estimate is higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that analysts have recently become bullish on the company's earnings prospects. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of +1.89%. On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #2. So, this combination indicates that WisdomTree, Inc. will most likely beat the consensus EPS estimate. Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue? While calculating estimates for a company's future earnings, analysts often consider to what extent it has been able to match past consensus estimates. So, it's worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number. For the last reported quarter, it was expected that WisdomTree, Inc. would post earnings of $0.16 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.16, delivering no surprise. Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates two times. Bottom Line An earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss. That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success. This is why it's worth checking a company's Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank ahead of its quarterly release. Make sure to utilize our Earnings ESP Filter to uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they've reported. WisdomTree, Inc. appears a compelling earnings-beat candidate. However, investors should pay attention to other factors too for betting on this stock or staying away from it ahead of its earnings release. Expected Results of an Industry Player Another stock from the Zacks Financial - Miscellaneous Services industry, Lazard (LAZ), is soon expected to post earnings of $0.38 per share for the quarter ended June 2025. This estimate indicates a year-over-year change of -26.9%. Revenues for the quarter are expected to be $688.5 million, up 0.6% from the year-ago quarter. The consensus EPS estimate for Lazard has been revised 1.3% lower over the last 30 days to the current level. However, a higher Most Accurate Estimate has resulted in an Earnings ESP of +2.21%. When combined with a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold), this Earnings ESP indicates that Lazard will most likely beat the consensus EPS estimate. Over the last four quarters, the company surpassed consensus EPS estimates three times. Stay on top of upcoming earnings announcements with the Zacks Earnings Calendar.

WT honors six students lost during 2024-25 academic year
CANYON — With campus flags lowered and the chapel filled to capacity, West Texas A&M University paused Friday, April 25 to remember six students who died during the 2024-25 academic year. The 42nd annual student memorial service was held at the Joseph A. Hill Memorial Chapel, followed by a reception. Organized by the university's Student Government Association, the event served as a tribute to the lives lost and a reminder of the university's commitment to honoring its community. 'The Student Memorial is a heartfelt and meaningful tribute to honor the lives of WT students who have passed,' said Student Body President Kyal Browne, a senior agribusiness major from Waxahachie. 'It serves as a reminder that every Buffalo is part of our WT family. Their presence is deeply missed, and their impact will never be forgotten.' The six students remembered were: Jesus Jose Alaniz, a senior sports and exercise science major from Roma; Kaley N. Bilyeu, a freshman nursing major from Pampa; Elyjah J. Black, a senior biology major from Amarillo; Trevor C. Gibbs, a junior accounting major from Ballinger; Matthew P. Loyd, a junior music education major from Amarillo; and Jodi Vance-Furlow, a senior sports and exercise science major from Tucumcari, New Mexico. Browne said the event held personal significance for her after the loss of her friend, Trevor Gibbs, shortly after she took office as student body president. "Throughout this year, his memory has been a driving force behind this event," she said. 'I don't think I fully understood the meaning it held for families until I experienced that loss myself.' Scholarships of $350 each will be awarded for the 2025-26 academic year to students pursuing similar fields of study as those remembered. Recipients include: Kylie Velasquez, sophomore sports and exercise science major from Amarillo, in memory of Alaniz; Betha Riddley, senior nursing major from Amarillo, in memory of Bilyeu; Ava Olivas, sophomore biology major from Seminole, in memory of Black; Kami Drinnon, junior accounting major from Vega, in memory of Gibbs; Christofer Gaspar, junior music education major from Amarillo, in memory of Loyd; and Arantza Covarrubias, sophomore sports and exercise science major from Roy, New Mexico, in memory of Vance-Furlow. Students must maintain a GPA of at least 2.5 and participate in extracurricular or community service activities to be eligible for the scholarships. Chris Thomas, WT's vice president for student affairs, said the memorial was originally created in 1983 by students and remains a student-led tradition. 'It's a human thing, and WT is a human place built on the lives of those who came before us and those who will come after,' Thomas said. 'In order to live, we have to honor the dead.' Thomas said the university works to match scholarship recipients to the hometowns and majors of the students being honored, preserving their academic legacies. 'Sometimes it's easy to find a nursing student from Amarillo, but other times we expand the search to find someone within the same academic college to carry on that legacy,' he said. Thomas added that hosting the memorial inside the chapel for the first time in years added emotional weight to the ceremony. More: WTAMU Hill Chapel reopened after $1.5 million renovation 'To be back in that hallowed space and see every seat filled — it shows how much these lives meant,' he said. 'It's both humbling and healing to be part of a moment that turns grief into purpose.'

Two standout WT students honored at employment awards
CANYON — Two standout students — one praised as 'the ideal student employee' and another recognized for optimizing critical office operations — were honored Monday at West Texas A&M University's (WT) annual student employment awards ceremony in the Fairly Club at Bain-Schaeffer Buffalo Stadium. Senior computer science major Kayden Burgess of Pampa was named WT Undergraduate Student Employee of the Year, and graduate student Mariam Adegbindin, originally from Lagos, Nigeria, earned the Graduate Assistant of the Year honor. Burgess, Adegbindin and 70 other nominated student workers were celebrated during the event. Burgess is a student manager, event manager and bartender in the Jack B. Kelley Student Center, where he 'is very attentive to all of the details of setting up a space properly,' according to a nomination letter from Chari Hill, JBK assistant director. 'He has excellent critical thinking skills, often seeing areas to improve,' Hill wrote. 'He can quickly troubleshoot problems during events and find solutions. He truly epitomizes the ideal student employee and has a passion for not only the JBK but for WT.' Hill said Burgess is so well regarded that clients specifically request him as event manager or bartender. 'This honor means that all of the work I put in for the past four years is really paying off,' Burgess said. 'I'm really lucky to have been able to work with the kind of people at the JBK that I have and been in such a welcoming ecosystem such as WT.' Burgess added that his time in the JBK taught him invaluable lessons in communication and resourcefulness. 'Working in the JBK has helped me refine my leadership skills, which I'll use long after I graduate,' he said. 'The experience of managing events and collaborating with so many different people has challenged me to be more organized and proactive.' Adegbindin works in the WT Office of Career and Professional Services, where she was hired to help manage and utilize large amounts of data. She 'developed gorgeous and functional data dashboards that allow for more streamlined data gathering and analysis,' according to a nomination letter from Jessi Barrientos, senior career services coordinator. 'Her work will have lasting positive impacts on students at WTAMU as it allows our department to assess and advocate for services that better meet student needs,' Barrientos wrote. Barrientos also commended Adegbindin for improving the office's free headshot service and the Professional Clothing Closet. 'I'm very shy, I'm very quiet, and getting this kind of honor makes me see that, even still, the work I do kind of speaks for itself and is making a difference,' Adegbindin said. Adegbindin added that gaining hands-on experience with data analytics has boosted her confidence. 'I came here wanting to expand my knowledge, and now I get to apply it in ways that help other students succeed,' she said. 'WT truly feels like a home away from home.' WT President Walter V. Wendler thanked the winners and nominees for their dedication. 'Your work, alongside staff and faculty, is essential to fulfilling the mission of WT,' Wendler said. 'You are an essential part of, not only the classroom through your studies, but the business of WT through your student employment.' In addition to the top two awards, five other students received special honors: Career and Self Development Award: Clayton Stevenson, senior animal science major from Earth Communication Award: Avery Feldman, senior agricultural media and communication major from Raton, New Mexico Critical Thinking Award: Celina Pinela, senior mechanical engineering major from Bovina Innovation and Technology Award: Sydnee Hendrick, senior graphic design major from White Deer Teamwork Award: Paityn Nicholson, junior agricultural media and communication major from Melrose, New Mexico Winners were chosen by a selection committee of WT staff and faculty, including representatives from the Office of Career and Professional Development and University Recruitment. The annual ceremony celebrates the integral role student employees play in fulfilling the university's mission.
