Highlights New Clinical Data, Technology Advancements, and Cardiovascular Outcomes Research June 16, 2026 08:00 ET | Source: Inspire Medical Systems
MINNEAPOLIS, June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. (NYSE: INSP), a medical technology company focused on innovative, minimally invasive solutions for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), today announced its participation in SLEEP 2026, the 40th annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies (APSS), taking place June 14–17 in Baltimore, Maryland.
SLEEP is the premier global forum for sleep medicine and research, jointly hosted by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) and the Sleep Research Society (SRS).
Advancing Innovation and Clinical Evidence
“We are pleased to return to SLEEP and showcase the continued evolution of the Inspire platform, including the Inspire V system, alongside compelling new clinical data demonstrating real-world effectiveness,” said Tim Herbert, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our long-standing partnership with SLEEP reflects our commitment to advancing physician education and improving outcomes for patients with OSA worldwide.”
At Booth #525, attendees can explore:
The Inspire V system and recent technology advancementsClinical evidence supporting closed-loop therapy detailing respiratory sensing and inspiratory overlapThe Inspire SleepSync™ remote patient management platformResources for establishing and scaling Inspire programs New Clinical Insights: Hypoxic Burden and Cardiovascular Outcomes
Multiple presentations at SLEEP 2026 will highlight the growing body of evidence supporting Inspire therapy, particularly in improving cardiovascular risk markers. Separately, Inspire will highlight additional research at its exhibit booth, including recent peer-reviewed articles on hypoxic burden and cardiovascular outcomes, which complement these presentations and are not being presented as part of the SLEEP 2026 program.
The first article from Dr. Xu1 is a secondary analysis from the STAR trial that demonstrated:
Significant reductions in hypoxic burden, a key physiologic measure of oxygen desaturation linked to OSA riskImprovements in daytime sleepiness that correlate with hypoxic burden reduction, independent of AHI or arousal index changesMeaningful hypoxic burden improvements in at least 50% of AHI non-responders, supporting its role as a complementary biomarkerHypoxic burden is a measure of the total impact of oxygen desaturation events during sleep, integrating the depth, duration, and frequency of these events to quantify sleep apnea severity These findings reinforce hypoxic burden as an emerging and clinically relevant endpoint and align with a growing number of studies evaluating cardiovascular outcomes in patients treated with Inspire therapy versus Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) and untreated populations.

The second article from Dr. Nayak2 compared clinical outcomes between HNS and CPAP in OSA patients using data from the TriNetX database and compared a matched group of 3,525 patients in each group (CPAP and Inspire therapy).
OSA is linked to cardiovascular, metabolic, and neuropsychiatric morbidityThe hypoglossal nerve stimulation cohort had significantly lower odds of stroke, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation/flutter, hypertensive crisis, pulmonary embolism, ventricular tachycardia, COPD exacerbation, acute kidney injury, hospitalization, acute heart failure, and othersHypoglossal nerve stimulation may offer systemic benefits and reduce healthcare burden compared to CPAP 2 – Nayak et al, Clinical Outcomes of Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation Versus Continuous Positive Airway Pressure in Obstructive Sleep Apnea; OTO Open 2026, Vol. 10(2):e70240 April-June 2026
PREDICTOR Study Publication
Inspire also announced the publication of the PREDICTOR study3, which identified body mass index and neck circumference as predictors of complete concentric collapse. These findings suggest that many patients may be screened for Inspire therapy eligibility without requiring drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE), potentially reducing diagnostic burden, time to treatment, and healthcare costs.

Investors who purchased the Company’s securities between April 29, 2025 and January 26, 2026, inclusive (the “Class Period”), are encouraged to contact the firm before July 17, 2026.

So what: If you purchased Commvault securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.
What to do next: To join the Commvault class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/commvault-systems-inc/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than July 17, 2026. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition.

Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved, at that time, the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
Details Of The Case: According to the lawsuit, defendants provided overwhelmingly positive statements while, at the same time, disseminating materially false and misleading statements and/or concealing material adverse facts concerning the true state of Commvault's ARR growth environment; pertinently, Commvault knew or recklessly disregarded that its ARR growth guidance failed to properly factor in crucial variables, such as the type of sale. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice.

Commvault's SEC Filings Allegedly Contained Generic Risk Warnings That Failed to Disclose Specific, Known Problems With ARR Growth Calculations, Costing CVLT Investors $40.23 Per Share When the Truth Emerged
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Levi & Korsinsky, LLP examines the adequacy of Commvault Systems, Inc.'s (NASDAQ: CVLT) risk disclosures during the period from April 29, 2025 through January 26, 2026. A securities class action has been filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey on behalf of stockholders who suffered losses. Find out if you qualify to recover your investment losses. You may also contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at [email protected] or (212) 363-7500.
CVLT shares collapsed 31%, falling $40.23 per share from $129.36 to $89.13 on January 27, 2026, after the company disclosed that quarterly net new ARR of $39 million missed the $45 million target management had set just months earlier. The lead plaintiff deadline is July 17, 2026.
What the Company Disclosed to Investors
Throughout the Class Period, Commvault's public filings and earnings presentations included forward-looking statements about ARR growth expectations. Management raised total ARR growth guidance twice, from 16%-17% in April 2025, to 18% in July, and then to 18%-19% in October. The complaint challenges whether these projections were accompanied by meaningful cautionary language identifying the specific factors that could cause actual results to fall short.
What the Action Alleges Was Missing From Disclosures
The securities action contends that Commvault's disclosures omitted critical information investors needed to evaluate the reliability of ARR guidance:
ARR growth was dependent on the mix of SaaS versus term-license sales, with SaaS deals landing at average selling prices 2 to 3 times lower than software licensesThe Company allegedly failed to disclose that a shift toward SaaS deals, which constituted 70% of net new ARR by Q3, would mechanically dilute total ARR growth figuresLonger-duration term-license deals carried price concessions and negatively impacted ARR calculations (computed as total contract value divided by duration), a factor allegedly not disclosed alongside raised guidanceThe complaint asserts that forward-looking statements about $40 million and then $45 million quarterly net new ARR targets were not identified as forward-looking when made and lacked meaningful cautionary statementsWhy Generic Warnings May Not Have Protected Investors
The complaint specifically alleges that the statutory safe harbor for forward-looking statements does not apply because the projections at issue were not labeled as forward-looking when made and contained no meaningful cautionary language identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially. As pleaded in the action, Commvault's ARR guidance was presented with increasing confidence each quarter while the mathematical relationship between SaaS deal mix and ARR output was already known internally.
"Generic risk factor language cannot substitute for disclosing specific, known problems that are already affecting a company's operations. When a company raises guidance over multiple consecutive quarters while aware that product mix dynamics could undermine those very targets, investors deserve specific disclosure of that risk." -- Joseph E. Levi, Esq.

Frequently Asked Questions About the CVLT Lawsuit
Q: What specific misstatements does the CVLT lawsuit allege? A: The complaint alleges Commvault made materially false or misleading statements regarding its ARR growth guidance for fiscal year 2026, failing to disclose that the growth was dependent on the mix of SaaS versus term-license sales and that SaaS deals carry significantly lower average selling prices. When the true state was revealed on January 27, 2026, the stock price declined sharply.
Q: When did Commvault allegedly mislead investors? A: The class period runs from April 29, 2025 to January 26, 2026. During this time, management raised ARR growth guidance multiple times before the January 27, 2026 corrective disclosure revealed the guidance was allegedly built on flawed assumptions.
Q: What do CVLT investors need to do right now? A: Gather brokerage records including purchase dates, share quantities, and prices paid. Contact Levi & Korsinsky for a free, no-obligation evaluation at [email protected] or (212) 363-7500. No immediate action is required to remain eligible as a class member.

ARR growth was dependent on the mix of SaaS versus term-license sales, with SaaS deals landing at average selling prices 2 to 3 times lower than software licensesThe Company allegedly failed to disclose that a shift toward SaaS deals, which constituted 70% of net new ARR by Q3, would mechanically dilute total ARR growth figuresLonger-duration term-license deals carried price concessions and negatively impacted ARR calculations (computed as total contract value divided by duration), a factor allegedly not disclosed alongside raised guidanceThe complaint asserts that forward-looking statements about $40 million and then $45 million quarterly net new ARR targets were not identified as forward-looking when made and lacked meaningful cautionary statementsWhy Generic Warnings May Not Have Protected Investors
The complaint specifically alleges that the statutory safe harbor for forward-looking statements does not apply because the projections at issue were not labeled as forward-looking when made and contained no meaningful cautionary language identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially. As pleaded in the action, Commvault's ARR guidance was presented with increasing confidence each quarter while the mathematical relationship between SaaS deal mix and ARR output was already known internally.
"Generic risk factor language cannot substitute for disclosing specific, known problems that are already affecting a company's operations. When a company raises guidance over multiple consecutive quarters while aware that product mix dynamics could undermine those very targets, investors deserve specific disclosure of that risk." -- Joseph E. Levi, Esq.

Frequently Asked Questions About the CVLT Lawsuit
Q: What specific misstatements does the CVLT lawsuit allege? A: The complaint alleges Commvault made materially false or misleading statements regarding its ARR growth guidance for fiscal year 2026, failing to disclose that the growth was dependent on the mix of SaaS versus term-license sales and that SaaS deals carry significantly lower average selling prices. When the true state was revealed on January 27, 2026, the stock price declined sharply.
Q: When did Commvault allegedly mislead investors? A: The class period runs from April 29, 2025 to January 26, 2026. During this time, management raised ARR growth guidance multiple times before the January 27, 2026 corrective disclosure revealed the guidance was allegedly built on flawed assumptions.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Commvault securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Commvault class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/commvault-systems-inc/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved, at that time, the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants provided overwhelmingly positive statements while, at the same time, disseminating materially false and misleading statements and/or concealing material adverse facts concerning the true state of Commvault's ARR growth environment; pertinently, Commvault knew or recklessly disregarded that its ARR growth guidance failed to properly factor in crucial variables, such as the type of sale. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

What’s Happening?
Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C., a nationally recognized stockholder rights law firm, announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Commvault Systems, Inc. (“Commvault” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:CVLT) in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey on behalf of all persons and entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Commvault securities between April 29, 2025 to January 26, 2026, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”). Investors have until July 17, 2026 to apply to the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit. What are the Allegation Details?
According to the complaint, during the class period defendants created the false impression that Commvault’s annualized recurring revenue (ARR) growth would remain steady throughout fiscal year 2026. Plaintiff alleges that Commvault knew or recklessly disregarded that the Company’s ARR growth guidance failed to properly factor in crucial variables, such as the type of sale. Such statements absent these material facts caused Plaintiff and other shareholders to purchase Commvault’s securities at artificially inflated prices.Plaintiff then alleges that the truth was revealed on January 27, 2026, when Commvault published third quarter 2026 fiscal results, which included ARR growth below the guidance provided by the Company. Commvault reported ARR growth for the third quarter 2026 was $39 million, which fell short of the $45 million projection provided. On this news, the price of Commvault’s common stock declined from a closing price of $129.36 per share on January 26, 2026, to $89.13 per share on January 27, 2026, a decline of over 31% in a single day. What are my Next Steps?

Commvault Systems, Inc. (CVLT) Securities Class Action:
Commvault provides its customers cyber resiliency by protecting and recovering their data and cloud-native applications amidst increasing cyber threats and attacks.
The company generates revenues through subscriptions, including Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS"), and has said that subscription annual recurring revenue ("ARR") "is the best indicator of the company's growth." Accordingly, investors have focused on this key metric, of which SaaS ARR accounts for about 38%.
During the Class Period, Commvault repeatedly touted that its "execution has never been better across the business[,]" said it would "continue to see hyper-growth within [its] SaaS platform[,]" and hyped its ARR growth and accelerated SaaS target achievement "two quarters earlier than planned."
The primary focus of the litigation is the claim that the company and its management knew but did not disclose how different types of sales would impact ARR growth, that the company increasingly focused on lower-priced SaaS deals and discounting, and created the misleading impression that its ARR would remain steady throughout fiscal 2026.
Investors learned the truth on January 27, 2026 after Commvault reported underwhelming Q3 2026 financial results. Of concern was the significant miss in net new ARR, a reduction in full-year ARR growth guidance, and a dramatic deceleration in SaaS ARR year-over-year growth (down year-over-year from 71% to just 40%).
The primary discrepancy with the company's earlier growth narrative was its revelation that composition of sales activity (type of sale) mattered – unknown to investors, volumes increasingly came from dramatically lower-priced SaaS deals and heavily discounted long-term contracts, both of which significantly pressured ARR and SaaS ARR.
Along with the market's swift, negative reaction, several analysts (some of whom reportedly characterized the results as a "mess" and questioned Commvault's ability to execute) promptly downgraded their Commvault investment and price target ratings.
"We're investigating the pending claims that Commvault intentionally misled investors about adverse impact on its growth narrative brought about by the change in type of sales revelations," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the firm's investigation.
If you invested in Commvault and have substantial losses, or have knowledge that will assist the firm's investigation, submit your losses now.

Taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for new and old investors, and Zacks Premium offers many different ways to do both.
Featuring daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, the research service can help you become a smarter, more self-assured investor.
Zacks Premium also includes the Zacks Style Scores.
What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores, developed alongside the Zacks Rank, are complementary indicators that rate stocks based on three widely-followed investing methodologies; they also help investors pick stocks with the best chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.
Each stock is assigned a rating of A, B, C, D, or F based on their value, growth, and momentum characteristics. Just like in school, an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on -- that means the better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform.
The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:
Value ScoreValue investors love finding good stocks at good prices, especially before the broader market catches on to a stock's true value. Utilizing ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and many other multiples, the Value Style Score identifies the most attractive and most discounted stocks.
Growth ScoreGrowth investors are more concerned with a stock's future prospects, and the overall financial health and strength of a company. Thus, the Growth Style Score analyzes characteristics like projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow to find stocks that will see sustainable growth over time.
Momentum ScoreMomentum trading is all about taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook, and these investors live by the saying "the trend is your friend." The Momentum Style Score can pinpoint good times to build a position in a stock, using factors like one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates.
VGM ScoreIf you want a combination of all three Style Scores, then the VGM Score will be your friend. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, helping you find the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum. It's also one of the best indicators to use with the Zacks Rank.
How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank A proprietary stock-rating model, the Zacks Rank utilizes the power of earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings outlook, to help investors create a successful portfolio.
#1 (Strong Buy) stocks have produced an unmatched +24% average annual return since 1988, which is more than double the S&P 500's performance over the same time frame. However, the Zacks Rank examines a ton of stocks, and there can be more than 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, and another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.
With more than 800 top-rated stocks to choose from, it can certainly feel overwhelming to pick the ones that are right for you and your investing journey.
That's where the Style Scores come in.
To maximize your returns, you want to buy stocks with the highest probability of success. This means picking stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you find yourself looking at stocks with a #3 (Hold) rank, make sure they have Scores of A or B as well to ensure as much upside potential as possible.
As mentioned above, the Scores are designed to work with the Zacks Rank, so any change to a company's earnings outlook should be a deciding factor when picking which stocks to buy.
A stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, for instance, even one with Scores of A and B, will still have a declining earnings forecast, and a greater chance its share price will fall too.
Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.

Eligible Customers May Receive Up to $1,000 to Pay Past‑Due Bills
, /PRNewswire/ -- Pacific Gas and Electric Company's (PG&E) Match My Payment Program has provided nearly $30 million in matching payments to help more than 78,000 customers catch up on past-due energy bills since the program began one year ago. Limited funds are still available for a short time.
PG&E launched the Match My Payment Program last June, offering a dollar-for-dollar match of up to $1,000 for qualifying low-to moderate-income customers to pay past-due energy bills to stop service disconnections.
In 2026, PG&E expanded its bill relief efforts by committing $50 million to support programs including Match My Payment and PG&E's Relief for Energy Assistance through Community Help (REACH). REACH provides income-eligible customers with a bill credit of up to $800 based on the past-due balance. The emergency assistance is available for customers with a disconnection notice.
"PG&E Match My Payment provides meaningful support for many customers whose incomes don't typically qualify for other assistance, said Vincent Davis, PG&E Senior Vice President and Chief Customer Officer. "The strong response over the past year shows the difference a dollar‑for‑dollar match can make for families who are behind on their energy bills."
Since 2025, the three counties with the highest number of approved applications and funding include Fresno, Kern, and San Joaquin. In these three counties combined, PG&E has distributed more than $12.5 million in bill assistance.
PG&E Match My Payment recipients can receive multiple matches throughout the year by paying at least $50 toward a past-due balance of $100 or more. Eligibility is based on federal income guidelines. For example, a family of four earning less than $132,000 annually may qualify. This is double the income limit of the PG&E REACH program.
Funding is distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Customers are encouraged to check their eligibility and apply while funds last. PG&E works with the nonprofit Dollar Energy Fund (DEF) to process applications.
Coordinated Support for REACH Recipients
Customers who receive up to $800 in a REACH grant may also qualify for up to $1,000 through Match My Payment, for combined support of up to $1,800, or while funds last. Eligibility for PG&E's REACH program follows federal income guidelines, which are lower than those for the PG&E Match My Payment Program.
Other Income-eligible Assistance Programs
Customers are also encouraged to check if they qualify for PG&E's other assistance programs including:
California Alternate Rates for Energy Program (CARE): provides a monthly discount of 20% or more on gas and 35% or more on electricity (compared to non-CARE bundled customers).Family Electric Rate Assistance Program (FERA): eligibility guidelines provide a monthly discount of 18% on electricity, regardless of household size. Low Income Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP): a federally funded assistance program overseen by the state that offers a one-time payment up to $1,500 on past due bills to help low-income households pay for heating or cooling in their homes. Payments may vary by location and funding availability.Arrearage Management Plan (AMP): a debt forgiveness plan for eligible residential customers. Customers may also qualify for Medical Baseline, which offers an additional allotment of energy at the lower baseline rate or a discount on rate plans without baselines, and priority shutoff notifications for those who depend on power for certain medical needs. Enrollment requires certification by a qualified medical practitioner.

The semiconductor services company's shares have seen an increase of 31.02% over the last month, surpassing the Computer and Technology sector's gain of 2.85% and the S&P 500's gain of 2.14%.
The investment community will be paying close attention to the earnings performance of Axcelis Technologies in its upcoming release. The company's earnings per share (EPS) are projected to be $0.9, reflecting a 20.35% decrease from the same quarter last year. At the same time, our most recent consensus estimate is projecting a revenue of $205.1 million, reflecting a 5.43% rise from the equivalent quarter last year.
Looking at the full year, the Zacks Consensus Estimates suggest analysts are expecting earnings of $3.82 per share and revenue of $845.4 million. These totals would mark changes of -21.72% and +0.76%, respectively, from last year.
Additionally, investors should keep an eye on any recent revisions to analyst forecasts for Axcelis Technologies. These revisions help to show the ever-changing nature of near-term business trends. As a result, upbeat changes in estimates indicate analysts' favorable outlook on the business health and profitability.
Based on our research, we believe these estimate revisions are directly related to near-term stock moves. To benefit from this, we have developed the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model which takes these estimate changes into account and provides an actionable rating system.
The Zacks Rank system, ranging from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), possesses a remarkable history of outdoing, externally audited, with #1 stocks returning an average annual gain of +25% since 1988.

With respect to valuation, Axcelis Technologies is currently being traded at a Forward P/E ratio of 50.2. This valuation marks a discount compared to its industry average Forward P/E of 50.27.
We can also see that ACLS currently has a PEG ratio of 11.41. This popular metric is similar to the widely-known P/E ratio, with the difference being that the PEG ratio also takes into account the company's expected earnings growth rate.

Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI | SMCI Price Prediction) has whipsawed investors. The stock collapsed 29.87% in the past week alone after a $7 billion financing announcement, yet AI infrastructure demand keeps stacking up behind the scenes. I built the 24/7 Wall St. price target on this exact tension.
The 24/7 Wall St. Price Target for SMCI Our 24/7 Wall St. price target for Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI) is $34, implying 10.22% upside from the current $30.85. The model rates Super Micro a buy with high confidence (90%), primarily because the post-financing selloff has reset the multiple while the order book keeps growing.
Metric Value Current Price $30.85 24/7 Wall St. Price Target $34.00 Upside 10.22% Recommendation BUY Confidence Level 90% A Brutal Week Resets the Setup Super Micro is down 25.77% over the past year but still up 5.4% year to date, sitting roughly 40% below the 52-week high of $62.36. The catalyst for the most recent leg down: a $7 billion equity and equity-linked financing package led by JPMorgan and Goldman to fund AI server components.
Q3 FY26 results, filed May 5, 2026, told the same split story. Non-GAAP EPS of $0.84 beat consensus by 34.51%, while revenue of $10.24 billion grew 122.7% YoY but missed estimates by 17.75%. Crucially, GAAP gross margin recovered to 9.9% from 6.3% the prior quarter.
Why Bulls See $44 and Higher The bull case is anchored in backlog. Seeking Alpha and Stone Fox Capital point to $39 billion in new AI server orders from 20 customers, nearly matching the full-year revenue target.
Super Micro also closed a $2 billion India deal with Gorilla Technology and inked a nuclear-power MOU with NANO Nuclear. CEO Charles Liang says “our margin recovery and the rapid growth of our DCBBS business demonstrate that our business remains robust.” Our bull-case price target lands at $44.38, a 43.85% return scenario.
What Could Go Wrong The bear case starts with governance. Q3 results remain preliminary and unaudited pending a Board independent review tied to export-control matters. Wolfe Research initiated coverage at Peer Perform, and Raymond James trimmed its target to $39 from $45. CEO Liang and Director Liu each disposed of 340,000 shares on May 26, 2026, a combined 680,000-share signal investors noticed.
Cash dynamics are the other concern: $6.6 billion of cash used in operations in Q3 and $8.8 billion in total bank debt and convertibles. Bulls would counter that the cash burn reflects aggressive inventory positioning for the Blackwell Ultra ramp. Our bear-case scenario lands at $27.96.
SMCI Price Prediction 2026-2030 The 24/7 Wall St. price target of $34 reflects a buy rating at 90% confidence. The decisive factor is valuation: a forward P/E of roughly 10x on a company growing revenue triple digits already prices in significant skepticism.
The setup looks constructive if the Board review closes cleanly and margins hold above 9%. The thesis weakens if the export-control investigation widens or if Q4 EPS lands below the $0.65 guidance floor.
Looking further ahead, here is where our model projects Super Micro could trade, assuming current growth trajectories and the AI infrastructure cycle hold.
Year 24/7 Wall St. Price Target 2026 $34.00 2030 $44.06 These projections assume Super Micro executes on its DCBBS roadmap and clears the governance overhang. Significant upside or downside could result from the export-control resolution and the pace of Blackwell Ultra deliveries.
Super Micro Computer (SMCI - Free Report) ended the recent trading session at $29.22, demonstrating a -5.28% change from the preceding day's closing price. The stock trailed the S&P 500, which registered a daily loss of 0.57%. Elsewhere, the Dow gained 0.64%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq lost 1.15%.
Heading into today, shares of the server technology company had gained 0% over the past month, lagging the Computer and Technology sector's gain of 2.85% and the S&P 500's gain of 2.14%.
Investors will be eagerly watching for the performance of Super Micro Computer in its upcoming earnings disclosure. In that report, analysts expect Super Micro Computer to post earnings of $0.7 per share. This would mark year-over-year growth of 70.73%. Simultaneously, our latest consensus estimate expects the revenue to be $11.71 billion, showing a 103.47% escalation compared to the year-ago quarter.
Regarding the entire year, the Zacks Consensus Estimates forecast earnings of $2.56 per share and revenue of $39.67 billion, indicating changes of +24.27% and +80.55%, respectively, compared to the previous year.
Investors should also pay attention to any latest changes in analyst estimates for Super Micro Computer. Such recent modifications usually signify the changing landscape of near-term business trends. As a result, we can interpret positive estimate revisions as a good sign for the business outlook.
Our research reveals that these estimate alterations are directly linked with the stock price performance in the near future. To take advantage of this, we've established the Zacks Rank, an exclusive model that considers these estimated changes and delivers an operational rating system.
Ranging from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), the Zacks Rank system has a proven, outside-audited track record of outperformance, with #1 stocks returning an average of +25% annually since 1988. Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate has shifted 0.14% downward. Super Micro Computer is holding a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold) right now.
Valuation is also important, so investors should note that Super Micro Computer has a Forward P/E ratio of 12.05 right now. This represents a discount compared to its industry average Forward P/E of 25.16.
Meanwhile, SMCI's PEG ratio is currently 0.42. The PEG ratio is similar to the widely-used P/E ratio, but this metric also takes the company's expected earnings growth rate into account. The Computer- Storage Devices industry had an average PEG ratio of 1.66 as trading concluded yesterday.
The Computer- Storage Devices industry is part of the Computer and Technology sector. This industry, currently bearing a Zacks Industry Rank of 6, finds itself in the top 3% echelons of all 250+ industries.
The Zacks Industry Rank assesses the vigor of our specific industry groups by computing the average Zacks Rank of the individual stocks incorporated in the groups. Our research shows that the top 50% rated industries outperform the bottom half by a factor of 2 to 1.

Bloom Energy stock is trading at elevated levels. What should traders watch with BE? What Is Driving Bloom Energy’s Recent Price Action?The latest bid has been tied to a "tariff-reset" framework that includes certain steel and aluminum derivative tariffs cut to 15% from 25% for goods imported after 12:01 a.m. EST on June 8 through Dec. 31, 2027. Traders have also focused on a 10% lane for capital equipment that is at least 85% U.S. "melted and poured," alongside an expanded 25% list that now includes items like steel racks and aluminum lithographic plates.
Bloom is also still trading through a valuation overhang after Morningstar labeled it the "most overvalued" stock in its coverage, arguing shares were more than 300% above its $70 fair value estimate following roughly a 1,300% surge. That debate has helped keep the stock's day-to-day moves tightly linked to any incremental policy read-through on tariffs and sourcing rules.
Critical Price Levels To Watch For BE StockBloom is in a longer-term uptrend, but the near-term tape looks more like digestion than acceleration: the stock is trading 1.7% below its 20-day SMA ($276.68) while holding 8.1% above its 50-day SMA ($251.78). That "above the 50-day, below the 20-day" posture often acts like a consolidation zone.
RSI is the cleaner momentum read right now at 52.95, which is neutral and suggests buying pressure isn't stretched the way it was when RSI pushed into overbought territory in May. RSI measures how extended the move is, and this mid-range level fits a market that's pausing rather than trending hard in either direction.
The bigger structure still leans bullish with the 20-day SMA above the 50-day SMA, and the 50-day SMA above the 200-day SMA (a golden cross that occurred in June 2025). With price still 80.9% above the 200-day SMA ($150.40), the primary risk for bulls is less "trend break" and more "volatility around mean reversion" if momentum cools further.
Key Resistance: $303.00 — a round-number area near the upper end of the recent rebound zone where rallies can stall Key Support: $249.00 — a nearby pivot area sitting close to the 50-day moving average zone where dip-buyers often defend trend structure How Bloom Energy Generates Revenue Through Fuel CellsBloom Energy designs, manufactures, sells, and installs solid oxide fuel cell systems for on-site power generation. Its Bloom Energy Servers are fuel-flexible and can use natural gas, biogas, and hydrogen to create 24/7 electricity for stationary applications.
That business model is why policy and tariff details can matter to the stock: changes to steel/aluminum and capital equipment rules can shift how investors think about input costs, sourcing, and longer-term margins. Bloom sells its systems in the United States and internationally, so traders tend to react quickly when trade frameworks change.
Bloom's AI-data-center angle is also getting louder, with RBC reiterating Outperform and a $335 price target—implying 43.02% upside—after a Wyoming data center project was confirmed to be moving forward directly with a hyperscaler customer. RBC framed the build as a "1.8 GW BTM power plant," with 900 MW slated to be Bloom fuel cells and the other 900 MW gas turbines. Outperform ratings for

LOS ANGELES, June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Portnoy Law Firm advises IF Bancorp, Inc., (“IF Bancorp” or the "Company") (NASDAQ: IROQ) investors of a class action on behalf of investors that held securities as of February 3 , 202, inclusive (the “Class Period”). IF Bancorp investors have until June 29, 2026 to file a lead plaintiff motion.
Investors are encouraged to contact attorney Lesley F. Portnoy, by phone 310-692-8883 or email: [email protected], to discuss their legal rights, or join the case via https://portnoylaw.com/if-bancorp-inc. The Portnoy Law Firm can provide a complimentary case evaluation and discuss investors’ options for pursuing claims to recover their losses.
The Complaint alleges that, in connection with IF Bancorp’s merger with ServBanc Holdco, Defendants caused the Company to issue a materially false and misleading proxy statement that, among other things:
(1) overstated the value and likelihood of the consideration to be received by shareholders, including a purported $27.20 per-share merger price and the possibility of a special dividend tied to certain tangible common equity thresholds;
(2) failed to disclose that, due to a required $13.99 million loan renewal and an associated reserve that would be imposed as a condition of ServBanc Holdco’s approval, there was no meaningful likelihood that IF Bancorp’s tangible common equity would meet the threshold necessary to avoid a downward adjustment or to trigger any special dividend;
(3) misled shareholders regarding the true amount and likelihood of the consideration they would receive, when in reality the merger consideration was expected to be reduced to approximately $26.40 per share and any additional contingent payment was uncertain and dependent on future loan repayment; and
(4) as a result, Defendants’ statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times, depriving shareholders of the ability to cast a fully informed vote, inducing them to approve the Merger and forgo appraisal rights, and causing them to receive less than the fair value of their shares.
The Portnoy Law Firm represents investors in pursuing claims caused by corporate wrongdoing. The Firm’s founding partner has recovered over $5.5 billion for aggrieved investors. Attorney advertising. Prior results do not guarantee similar outcomes.

NEW YORK, June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pomerantz LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against ServBanc Holdco, Inc. (“ServBanc Holdco”), as successor in interest to IF Bancorp, Inc.

Plaintiff’s claims arise in connection with the Board’s solicitation of IF Bancorp shareholders to vote in favor of a merger transaction (the “Merger”)—based on false representations of the consideration shareholders would receive—pursuant to which IF Bancorp merge with and into ServBanc Holdco.
If you are an investor who purchased or otherwise acquired IF Bancorp securities during the Class Period, you have until June 29, 2026, to ask the Court to appoint you as Lead Plaintiff for the class.

Prior to the Merger, IF Bancorp was the holding company for Iroquois Federal Savings and Loan Association (“Iroquois Federal”), a federally chartered savings association headquartered in Watseka, Illinois. Iroquois Federal’s business consisted primarily of taking deposits from the general public and investing those deposits, together with funds generated from operations and borrowings, into a variety of loans and lines of credit.
On November 25, 2024, IF Bancorp shareholders voted to approve a shareholder proposal calling for the prompt sale of the Company.
On October 30, 2025, IF Bancorp filed a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing that one day earlier, it had entered into a merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which, following a series of transactions, the Company would merge with and into ServBanc Holdco.
On December 30, 2025, to solicit IF Bancorp shareholders to vote in favor of the Merger, the Board authorized the filing of a false and misleading definitive proxy on Schedule 14A (“Proxy”) with the SEC.
Among other representations, the Proxy stated that pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each IF Bancorp shareholder would purportedly receive approximately $27.20 per share (the “Merger Consideration”), subject to an adjustment based on IF Bancorp’s tangible common equity at the time of closing (the “Equity Based Adjustment”).
The approximate per-share consideration of $27.20, preceding the Equity Based Adjustment, represented a premium of just $1.90, or 6.98%, on the $25.30 closing price of IF Bancorp stock on October 29, 2025, the last trading day before Defendants announced the Merger.
The Proxy further stated that pursuant to the Equity Based Adjustment, the Merger Consideration would be reduced if, at the time of closing, IF Bancorp’s tangible common equity was less than $77.8 million (the “Merger Consideration Threshold”), and that the Merger Consideration would be reduced by the difference between the Merger Consideration Threshold and IF Bancorp’s tangible common equity. Tangible common equity would equal IF Bancorp’s “good faith estimate of all income and expenses through the closing of the Merger and (B) unrealized losses in the consolidated securities portfolio,” less transaction costs that had not been paid or accrued before the date on which tangible common equity would be calculated, and plus costs or expenses related to claims, demands, or actions regarding the Merger.
The Proxy further stated that if instead, IF Bancorp’s tangible common equity at the time of closing was greater than the Merger Consideration Threshold, then each shareholder would purportedly receive a cash dividend equal to the amount by which the Company’s equity exceeded the Merger Consideration Threshold, divided by the total number of outstanding shares of the Company’s stock (the “Special Dividend”).
However, the purported Merger Consideration and Special Dividend were illusory and misled IF Bancorp shareholders into voting for the merger. There was no meaningful likelihood that IF Bancorp’s tangible common equity would exceed the Merger Consideration Threshold, and as a result, IF Bancorp shareholders were nearly certain to receive less than $27.20 per share and would not receive the Special Dividend at all. Specifically, Iroquois Federal held a loan participation interest in the amount of $13,996,617 (the “Loan”) that it was required to renew before the Merger closed, and it would need ServBanc Holdco to allow it to do so. Following renewal of the Loan, IF Bancorp’s tangible common equity would fall below the Merger Consideration Threshold because ServBand Holdco would require it to establish a reserve against the Loan.
The Proxy was negligently prepared and, as a result, contained untrue statements of material fact or omitted to state other facts necessary to make the statements made not misleading and was not prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations governing its preparation. Specifically, the Proxy made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) due to IF Bancorp’s required Loan renewal, there was no meaningful likelihood that the Company’s tangible common equity would exceed the Merger Consideration Threshold; (ii) accordingly, the Proxy’s statements concerning the Merger Consideration and Special Dividend were misleading insofar as they overstated the likelihood that IF Bancorp shareholders would receive the Special Dividend; and (iii) as a result, Defendants’ statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
On February 4, 2026, IF Bancorp filed a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing that the Company’s shareholders voted to approve the Merger one day earlier. The Company further stated that it expected the Merger to close on March 12, 2026.
On March 10, 2026, just over one month after IF Bancorp shareholders voted to approve the Merger and two days before it closed, IF Bancorp filed a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing it had entered into an agreement with ServBanc Holdco in connection with its request to renew Iroquis Federal’s Loan. Pursuant to this agreement, ServBanc Holdco agreed to allow Iroquois Federal to renew the Loan, if it also established a $7 million cash reserve against the Loan.
IF Bancorp further stated that ServBanc Holdco agreed to create a contingent payment fund of $5,004,650 (the “Contingent Payment Fund”), “reflecting the tax-effected impact of the reserve on the Company’s tangible common equity”. The Contingent Payment Fund would be disbursed among IF Bancorp shareholders “only if the Loan is repaid”, and “[a]ccordingly, there is no guarantee as to the amount of the Contingent Payment Fund, if any, that may be paid to Company stockholders”. Moreover, the Company further stated that, if the Contingent Payment Fund was disbursed in its entirety, each Company shareholder would receive approximately $1.51 per share. If it were not distributed to Company shareholders, the Contingent Payment Fund would revert to ServBanc Holdco.
Finally, IF Bancorp stated that it had reached a preliminary agreement with ServBanc Holdco as to the tangible common equity calculation and “as a result, the cash merger consideration is expected to be $26.40 per share”, excluding any payments from the Contingent Payment Fund.
As a result of Defendants’ wrongful acts and omissions, Plaintiff and other Class members were deprived of their right to be presented with accurate proxy materials while asked to vote on the Merger, were caused to vote in favor of the Merger, were caused to not exercise their appraisal rights, and were caused to sell their shares for less than the fair value of those shares.

For new and old investors, taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals. Zacks Premium provides lots of different ways to do both.
The research service features daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, all of which will help you become a smarter, more confident investor.
Zacks Premium includes access to the Zacks Style Scores as well.
What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores, developed alongside the Zacks Rank, are complementary indicators that rate stocks based on three widely-followed investing methodologies; they also help investors pick stocks with the best chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.
Each stock is assigned a rating of A, B, C, D, or F based on their value, growth, and momentum characteristics. Just like in school, an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on -- that means the better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform.
The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:
Value ScoreFor value investors, it's all about finding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under their true value before the broader market catches on. The Value Style Score utilizes ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and a host of other multiples to help pick out the most attractive and discounted stocks.
Growth ScoreWhile good value is important, growth investors are more focused on a company's financial strength and health, and its future outlook. The Growth Style Score takes projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow into account to uncover stocks that will see long-term, sustainable growth.
Momentum ScoreMomentum investors, who live by the saying "the trend is your friend," are most interested in taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook. Utilizing one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates, among other factors, the Momentum Style Score can help determine favorable times to buy high-momentum stocks.
VGM ScoreIf you want a combination of all three Style Scores, then the VGM Score will be your friend. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, helping you find the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum. It's also one of the best indicators to use with the Zacks Rank.
How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank The Zacks Rank, which is a proprietary stock-rating model, employs earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings expectations, to make building a winning portfolio easier.
Investors can count on the Zacks Rank's success, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +24% average annual return since 1988, more than double the S&P 500's performance. But the model rates a large number of stocks, and there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.
But it can feel overwhelming to pick the right stocks for you and your investing goals with over 800 top-rated stocks to choose from.
That's where the Style Scores come in.
To maximize your returns, you want to buy stocks with the highest probability of success. This means picking stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you find yourself looking at stocks with a #3 (Hold) rank, make sure they have Scores of A or B as well to ensure as much upside potential as possible.
The direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should always be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy, since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank.
A stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, for instance, even one with Scores of A and B, will still have a declining earnings forecast, and a greater chance its share price will fall too.
Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.

For new and old investors, taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals. Zacks Premium provides lots of different ways to do both.
Featuring daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, the research service can help you become a smarter, more self-assured investor.
Zacks Premium includes access to the Zacks Style Scores as well.
What are the Zacks Style Scores? Developed alongside the Zacks Rank, the Zacks Style Scores are a group of complementary indicators that help investors pick stocks with the best chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.
Each stock is assigned a rating of A, B, C, D, or F based on their value, growth, and momentum characteristics. Just like in school, an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on -- that means the better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform.
The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:
Value ScoreFinding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under their true value, are what value investors like to focus on. So, the Value Style Score takes into account ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and a host of other multiples to highlight the most attractive and discounted stocks.
Growth ScoreGrowth investors are more concerned with a stock's future prospects, and the overall financial health and strength of a company. Thus, the Growth Style Score analyzes characteristics like projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow to find stocks that will see sustainable growth over time.
Momentum ScoreMomentum trading is all about taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook, and these investors live by the saying "the trend is your friend." The Momentum Style Score can pinpoint good times to build a position in a stock, using factors like one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates.
VGM ScoreIf you like to use all three kinds of investing, then the VGM Score is for you. It's a combination of all Style Scores, and is an important indicator to use with the Zacks Rank. The VGM Score rates each stock on their shared weighted styles, narrowing down the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum.
How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank A proprietary stock-rating model, the Zacks Rank utilizes the power of earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings outlook, to help investors create a successful portfolio.
It's highly successful, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +24% average annual return since 1988. That's more than double the S&P 500. But because of the large number of stocks we rate, there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.
This totals more than 800 top-rated stocks, and it can be overwhelming to try and pick the best stocks for you and your portfolio.
That's where the Style Scores come in.
To maximize your returns, you want to buy stocks with the highest probability of success. This means picking stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you find yourself looking at stocks with a #3 (Hold) rank, make sure they have Scores of A or B as well to ensure as much upside potential as possible.
The direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should always be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy, since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank.
A stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, for instance, even one with Scores of A and B, will still have a declining earnings forecast, and a greater chance its share price will fall too.
Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.

RDN is a #3 (Hold) on the Zacks Rank, with a VGM Score of B.
It also boasts a Value Style Score of A thanks to attractive valuation metrics like a forward P/E ratio of 6.68; value investors should take notice.
For fiscal 2026, two analysts revised their earnings estimate upwards in the last 60 days, and the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.45 to $5.17 per share. RDN boasts an average earnings surprise of +10.7%.
With a solid Zacks Rank and top-tier Value and VGM Style Scores, RDN should be on investors' short list.

When deciding whether to buy, sell, or hold a stock, investors often rely on analyst recommendations. Media reports about rating changes by these brokerage-firm-employed (or sell-side) analysts often influence a stock's price, but are they really important?
Let's take a look at what these Wall Street heavyweights have to say about Vistra Corp. (VST - Free Report) before we discuss the reliability of brokerage recommendations and how to use them to your advantage.
Vistra currently has an average brokerage recommendation (ABR) of 1.12, on a scale of 1 to 5 (Strong Buy to Strong Sell), calculated based on the actual recommendations (Buy, Hold, Sell, etc.) made by 17 brokerage firms. An ABR of 1.12 approximates between Strong Buy and Buy.
Of the 17 recommendations that derive the current ABR, 16 are Strong Buy, representing 94.1% of all recommendations.
Brokerage Recommendation Trends for VST
Check price target & stock forecast for Vistra here>>>
While the ABR calls for buying Vistra, it may not be wise to make an investment decision solely based on this information. Several studies have shown limited to no success of brokerage recommendations in guiding investors to pick stocks with the best price increase potential.
Are you wondering why? The vested interest of brokerage firms in a stock they cover often results in a strong positive bias of their analysts in rating it. Our research shows that for every "Strong Sell" recommendation, brokerage firms assign five "Strong Buy" recommendations.
In other words, their interests aren't always aligned with retail investors, rarely indicating where the price of a stock could actually be heading. Therefore, the best use of this information could be validating your own research or an indicator that has proven to be highly successful in predicting a stock's price movement.
Zacks Rank, our proprietary stock rating tool with an impressive externally audited track record, categorizes stocks into five groups, ranging from Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) to Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), and is an effective indicator of a stock's price performance in the near future. Therefore, using the ABR to validate the Zacks Rank could be an efficient way of making a profitable investment decision.
Zacks Rank Should Not Be Confused With ABRAlthough both Zacks Rank and ABR are displayed in a range of 1--5, they are different measures altogether.
The ABR is calculated solely based on brokerage recommendations and is typically displayed with decimals (example: 1.28). In contrast, the Zacks Rank is a quantitative model allowing investors to harness the power of earnings estimate revisions. It is displayed in whole numbers -- 1 to 5.
It has been and continues to be the case that analysts employed by brokerage firms are overly optimistic with their recommendations. Because of their employers' vested interests, these analysts issue more favorable ratings than their research would support, misguiding investors far more often than helping them.
On the other hand, earnings estimate revisions are at the core of the Zacks Rank. And empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.
In addition, the different Zacks Rank grades are applied proportionately to all stocks for which brokerage analysts provide current-year earnings estimates. In other words, this tool always maintains a balance among its five ranks.
Another key difference between the ABR and Zacks Rank is freshness. The ABR is not necessarily up-to-date when you look at it. But, since brokerage analysts keep revising their earnings estimates to account for a company's changing business trends, and their actions get reflected in the Zacks Rank quickly enough, it is always timely in indicating future price movements.
Is VST a Good Investment?Looking at the earnings estimate revisions for Vistra, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current year has remained unchanged over the past month at $9.31.
Analysts' steady views regarding the company's earnings prospects, as indicated by an unchanged consensus estimate, could be a legitimate reason for the stock to perform in line with the broader market in the near term.
The size of the recent change in the consensus estimate, along with three other factors related to earnings estimates, has resulted in a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for Vistra. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) stocks here >>>>
It may therefore be prudent to be a little cautious with the Buy-equivalent ABR for Vistra.

SEI has a deep history of investing in its technology platform to deliver world-class experiences, and the operational efficiency gains become the foundation for future innovation in solutions like SEI Data Cloud and professional services that help our clients grow.
"By continuing to invest in a unified data foundation, intelligent workflows, and automation grounded in strong governance and safety, we're helping managers shift from static reporting to continuous insight while maintaining accuracy, control, and human oversight.

In addition to platform enhancements, SEI has also been making strategic investments across the enterprise to modernize how it operates, innovates, and delivers value to clients through AI and automation. Earlier this year, the company announced it had joined forces with IBM to accelerate enterprise transformation through agentic AI and automation, which includes a core focus on collaboration with SEI's Investment Managers business to enhance investor servicing and alternative fund accounting operations.

Key Takeaways Iran war's end and easing oil prices lifted sentiment, but inflation concerns persist.AWR and PCG are highlighted as low-beta utility plays with expected earnings growth.NYT, ARKO and KO stand out for earnings estimate revisions and growth potential. Investor sentiment got a boost over the weekend on signs that the Iran war is finally ending. Stocks rallied and oil prices fell from earlier highs. The latest development comes just days after the University of Michigan’s latest survey of consumer sentiment showed an improvement in June.
Lower oil prices bode well for several sectors and are likely to be reflected in the next inflation report. The end of the Iran war is now expected to boost investors’ sentiment further. However, inflation remains sky-high, and the Federal Reserve is struggling to tame it.
Although the sentiment has improved, the crisis is far from over. Given this scenario, we recommend sticking to defensive picks from the utilities and consumer staples sector, such as American States Water Company (AWR - Free Report) , PG&E Corporation (PCG - Free Report) , The New York Times Company (NYT - Free Report) , Arko Corp. (ARKO - Free Report) , and The Coca-Cola Company (KO - Free Report) .
These stocks have seen positive earnings estimate revisions in the past 60 days, carry a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy) at present, and are set for solid returns. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.
Consumer Sentiment ReboundsThe University of Michigan’s latest survey showed that consumer sentiment rose 9% to a preliminary reading of 48.9 in June. This is the first time in three months, or since the U.S.-Iran war began, that consumer sentiment rose.
Although sentiment remains low, signs of a rebound came as oil prices eased. Energy prices, which play a key role in shaping how people view the economy, have surged since the beginning of the war, denting consumer sentiment.
A rise in oil prices impacts the prices of goods and services, resulting in higher inflation. Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 0.5% in May from the previous month after increasing 0.6% in April, according to the Commerce Department's report released Thursday.
Oil prices have eased in recent weeks, lifting consumer sentiment, which could get a further boost after the United States announced over the weekend that it has reached a peace deal with Iran, marking the end of the war. The two warring nations have also said that the end of the war would mark the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, which would allow ships to pass more smoothly.
However, consumer sentiment remains lower than it was during the COVID-19 pandemic and even during the periods of high inflation in 2023 and 2024. It is also below the levels seen last year, when President Donald Trump rolled out a series of new tariffs.
It would thus be ideal to adopt a wait-and-watch mode and invest in safe-haven stocks.

When Quantinuum (QNT 4.28%) filed in May to go public on the Nasdaq, and then did so in early June -- targeting up to $1.05 billion in proceeds at a $12.7 billion valuation -- the quantum computing sector had a moment of reckoning. A well-capitalized, Honeywell-backed (HON +0.97%), full-stack quantum company has come to public markets with institutional credibility, a $100 million U.S. government stake, and the kind of hardware benchmarks that are making every existing quantum computing pure play look over its shoulder. Its actual IPO was even better than originally proposed, with a $1.68 billion raise and a valuation of over $15 billion.
The question for quantum investors who already hold IonQ (IONQ 8.12%), Rigetti Computing (RGTI 9.07%), or D-Wave Quantum (QBTS 8.84%) isn't whether Quantinuum's initial public offering (IPO) matters. It does. The question is which of these three has its feet under it firmly enough to withstand the comparison -- and which is running out of time.

The one with the most to lose: Rigetti Computing Rigetti Computing posted first-quarter 2026 revenue of $4.4 million. As of the end of the quarter, it had $569 million in cash on its books and no debt, which buys it some time -- but the revenue base is thin enough that a $12.7 billion Quantinuum entering the same investor conversations creates real pressure on perception. Rigetti has won a contract to supply a 108-qubit system to the Indian government's Centre for Development of Advanced Computing, and its 128-qubit system is actively rolling out. Its technology is advancing. Its commercialization hasn't caught up. Until and unless it does, Rigetti will remain a hardware story in a market that is starting to demand revenue proof.

The most interesting pivot: D-Wave Quantum Here's the counterintuitive one. D-Wave Quantum posted Q1 2026 revenue of $2.9 million -- down 81% from the prior year -- and the stock initially got punished for it. But look past the revenue line: Bookings for the quarter rose 1,994% year over year to $33.4 million. The company closed a $20 million system sale to Florida Atlantic University and a $10 million, two-year quantum-computing-as-a-service agreement with a Fortune 100 company. Remaining performance obligations jumped 563%.
D-Wave occupies a position in this space that no other company does: Thanks to its recent acquisition of peer Quantum Circuits, it is the only dual-platform quantum company, running both quantum annealing and gate-model systems. Quantum annealing systems differ from most other forms of the technology being pursued in that they are only useful for a limited range of applications. However, they are already capable of delivering solutions to real enterprise optimization problems today -- in areas such as routing, logistics, and finance -- even though fault-tolerant hardware has yet to mature. All this offers it a commercial wedge into an enterprise market that Quantinuum's trapped-ion hardware doesn't compete with directly. When D-Wave's booked sales convert into revenue in the back half of 2026, the story will change.

The clear survivor: IonQ IonQ is the name that emerges from Quantinuum's IPO in the strongest position. Its first-quarter revenue rose 755% year over year to $64.7 million, beating its own guidance midpoint by 30%. Full-year revenue guidance was raised to a range of $260 million to $270 million, which would amount to organic growth of more than 100%, with a backlog of $470 million.
The reason IonQ will survive this reset isn't just its revenue -- it's that IonQ and Quantinuum are actually fighting on the same battlefield. Both use trapped-ion qubit hardware. Both are pursuing enterprise and government contracts. IonQ trades at roughly 179 times sales, while Quantinuum trades near 505 times sales. When institutional investors compare the two, IonQ looks like the less expensive version of the same bet -- with a live revenue base that Quantinuum is still building toward.
