Market Signal Briefing

Nextech3D.AI (CSE:NTAR, OTCQX:NEXCF) CEO Evan Gappelberg spoke with Proactive about the company's strategic acquisition of Eventdex and how it significantly enhances its event technology capabilities. 

The acquisition brings a suite of tools including badging, floor plan mapping, AI matchmaking, and an app with AI navigation. Gappelberg described the move as transformative, saying it allows the company to deliver a true all-in-one solution that event organisers have been seeking. 

He revealed that the average order value per customer could rise from $3,000 to $20,000 due to cross-selling opportunities across over 500 annual events, noting: "It's a $10 million revenue potential just from upselling existing customers." 

Importantly, the deal accelerates the company’s blockchain ticketing rollout. Gappelberg confirmed a launch is anticipated in Q4 2025, potentially within the next six weeks.  

He highlighted that blockchain technology offers fraud-free, bot-resistant ticketing and smart contract integration, giving Nextech3D.AI an opportunity to tap into the $85 billion global ticketing market. 

Funded entirely in cash, the acquisition avoids shareholder dilution and is expected to double revenue. The company plans further M&A activity in the fragmented event tech space. 

“We expect to see our business going cash flow positive in 2026 and beyond,” Gappelberg added. 

Proactive: Hello, you're watching Proactive. I'm joined by Nextech3D.AI CEO Evan Gappelberg. Could you start by telling us about the strategic benefits the Eventdex acquisition brings to the company and how it's going to strengthen your event tech suite? 

Evan Gappelberg: It's a transformative acquisition, actually. When we look at Map Dynamics’ current revenue, the average order value is around $3,000 per customer. With this acquisition of Eventdex and all the cross-selling opportunities, we see a clear path with ticketing and badging to $20,000 average order value per customer. 

We do over 500 events with our existing customer base annually. When you do the math on that, it's a $10 million revenue potential just from upselling existing customers—without factoring in their customers or any new customers that we're going to land in 2026 and beyond. So it's a massive, massive win for our Nextech shareholders. 

You said the deal accelerates the blockchain ticketing launch. How soon could investors expect to see this solution in market? 

We are expecting Q4, which is 2025. So we're anticipating a launch—actually, it could be within the next six weeks. It's more important to understand not necessarily the exact day we're launching—Q4 is upon us now—but why blockchain matters. Blockchain ticketing is a new innovation in the ticketing market. 

The ticketing market is $85 billion. It's a massive industry. To have an industry-first, 100% fraud-free platform with blockchain, 100% bot resistance, the ability to tokenize tickets and turn them into smart contracts—where you have built-in VIP perks, sponsor activations—all of these things with verified resale mean that there's a massive upside with blockchain ticketing in 2026 and beyond.  

We could capture significant market share of this $85 billion market, on top of our existing mapping solution that we currently sell today. 

You are funding the acquisition entirely in cash. How does this impact your balance sheet and future growth plans? 

Yeah, you're right. We're paying all cash, which is great for our investors—there's no dilution. From our standpoint, this is quite additive. We expect to see a 100% growth in our revenue, and we expect to see our business going cash flow positive in 2026 and beyond. 

From an M&A strategy, though, this is really just the beginning. If you look at the event industry, which we're now looking at very hard, you'll see that it's quite fragmented. There are a lot of players in the industry. I would look at this as one of many acquisitions we plan on making. We expect that as we make these acquisitions, we're going to expand our customer footprint quite dramatically. 

We're picking up about $700,000 in revenue and over 60 customers with this acquisition. If we could add a few more, it starts to add up quite rapidly. Again, there's this cross-selling opportunity which gives us the ability to turn smaller customers into bigger customers. 

If you look at the industry and talk to event organizers—which we do on a daily basis—they really want one partner that has an all-in solution. That's really what today's acquisition speaks to. This all-in-one platform now includes badging, floor plan mapping, AI matchmaking, and an app with AI navigation.  

That's something event organizers absolutely love—it makes their life easier. 

We offer best-in-class event technology, so they'll always be on the leading edge.

A long-awaited first partner for the Ventura TV OS could reshape how ads and content show up on living-room screens.

The first big customer for The Trade Desk's (TTD 1.33%) TV operating system (OS) is finally here. The ad-buying platform announced on Wednesday that it will co-develop a custom version of its Ventura TV OS with DirecTV, pairing DirecTV's consumer interface with Ventura's ad-tech plumbing and app store. The announcement arrives nearly a year after Ventura was introduced, giving investors their first look at how the company plans to bring its TV platform to market.

For readers newer to the story, The Trade Desk operates a software platform that helps advertisers buy and measure digital ads across the internet. The company has been pushing deeper into connected TV (CTV) for years. Ventura is the boldest step yet -- a TV operating system meant to give manufacturers and content companies an alternative to platforms that also own content or a streaming service.

What Ventura is and why DirecTV matters
Ventura is pitched as a neutral operating system for smart TVs and other screens. The company said in its announcement of Ventura that it is designed to provide a "much cleaner supply chain streaming TV advertising, minimizing supply chain hops and costs -- ensuring maximum ROI for every advertising dollar and optimized yield for publishers." In other words, The Trade Desk believes it will support a supply chain that lets advertisers measure performance more precisely and ultimately optimize spending better.

Importantly, Ventura is not tied to a house streaming service, which the company argues reduces conflicts of interest and keeps it a more unbiased partner for publishers, TV makers, and retailers. This is a pointed contrast with incumbents like Roku or Amazon's Fire TV, which operate platforms while also owning major ad-supported channels and inventory.

DirecTV gives Ventura an on-ramp that consumers recognize. The partners plan to integrate DirecTV's familiar interface -- including access to MyFree DirecTV (its free ad-supported TV service), optional genre packs, and premium bundles -- into a Ventura build that any third-party TV manufacturer, retailer, hotel, or venue could deploy.

In other words, an OEM (original equipment manufacturer) can ship a TV that boots into DirecTV's experience, but the advertising marketplace and measurement behind the scenes will run on Ventura. As Matthew Henick, senior vice president of Ventura TV OS, put it, "TV manufacturers deserve more choice in how they build their businesses," adding that the goal is a "more transparent and equitable ecosystem" for advertisers and publishers.

Financially, The Trade Desk enters this next phase during a time when investors are dubious about how sustainable its high growth rate is. Second-quarter revenue grew 19% year over year to $694 million, and customer retention stayed above 95% while adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) margin was an impressive 39%. But this growth rate was down from Q1, and management expects even lower growth in Q3. While tough comparisons to year-ago quarters (due primarily to political advertising spending last year) are weighing on results, some investors worry that increasing competition is also to blame.

A catalyst -- and a potential distraction
A credible distribution partner could help The Trade Desk push Ventura into living rooms quickly. If OEMs adopt this DirecTV-skinned version, Ventura may improve ad transparency, streamline supply paths, and potentially lower take rates in CTV -- outcomes that could make its core ad-buying platform more attractive as its marketers benefit from better economics when buying Ventura OS inventory.

But investors should be cautious about extrapolating too much from a single partnership. Building and supporting a TV OS is expensive and operationally messy. The business model relies on lining up multiple constituents (OEMs, publishers, retailers, and distribution partners) and then demonstrating that stakeholders can earn more money on Ventura than on incumbent platforms. That process takes time. It is also possible the effort will distract management from the day-to-day of strengthening Kokai, its artificial intelligence (AI)-forward ad-buying platform.

Additionally, The Trade Desk's valuation arguably already prices in success with both its core business and in new ventures. Even after a tough stretch for the stock, shares trade at close to 10 times sales -- a premium that implies steady execution and continued share gains across CTV and the open internet. If Ventura ramps slowly, or if macroeconomic headwinds suppress large brands' ad budgets (as The Trade Desk management warned of in its last earnings call), that premium may be hard to defend. And competition isn't standing still: Platform owners with their own channels can bundle distribution, data, and ad inventory in ways Ventura will need to match, with clear economic benefits for partners.

None of this diminishes the strategic logic. If Ventura delivers an OS that reduces friction for viewers and advertisers while improving monetization for content owners, this could lead to a cleaner and more efficient supply chain for CTV, ultimately benefiting The Trade Desk's core platform and making it more valuable over time. The DirecTV tie-up is an important first step toward testing that thesis in the wild.

Plug Power stock has been a rollercoaster since going public in 1999.

Plug Power (PLUG 34.63%) held its IPO in 1999. At the time, investors were enthusiastic about the company's business model, which promised to usher in a new era of renewable energy using hydrogen fuel cells. Within months, shares zoomed higher from a split-adjusted $160 per share to more than $1,300 per share.

The excitement did not last. The dot-com bubble soon burst, and Plug Power's stock price gradually fell in value by more than 99%. However, we are in a much different world more than 25 years after Plug Power's IPO. Hydrogen fuel cells are arguably more powerful and efficient than ever. Demand projections, meanwhile, have picked up given a growing global emphasis on clean-burning fuels.

How will the next 25 years play out for Plug Power? There are three important questions to monitor.

1. Will hydrogen demand finally materialize at scale?
The global hydrogen revolution is just around the corner -- or at least that's what hydrogen companies have been telling investors for decades. Indeed, every now and again we get research reports suggesting that global hydrogen demand is about to scale significantly. A 2023 report by McKinsey & Company, for example, stated that "global clean hydrogen demand is projected to grow significantly to 2050." Within 12 months, the consultancy firm was forced to lower its long-term demand estimates by 10% to 25% across the board.

In theory, hydrogen fuel is a fantastic tool for realizing a carbon-free future. So-called "green hydrogen" can be produced using renewable energy sources, generating an energy-dense and portable fuel source that can be used in carbon-intensive applications like aviation.

The problem, for the most part, has been cost. When McKinsey lowered its demand forecast, it did so largely because hydrogen technologies simply aren't very cost-competitive with existing fuel sources. The company noted that hydrogen costs have risen by 20% to 40% since its original forecast, leaving potential adopters little incentive to ramp usage. Some experts believe hydrogen may be cost-competitive by 2030, but that would still require government incentives. And as we'll discuss next, which specific type of hydrogen fuel technology will succeed is still up for debate.

2. Which hydrogen technologies will actually succeed?
Several major types of hydrogen energy technologies exist today. Proton exchange membranes are suitable for applications that require quick start-up times and high power density, like cars, buses, and planes. Solid oxide fuel cells, on the other hand, are more suitable for stationary, large-scale power generation, such as powering a factory or supplementing grid variability. Anion exchange membranes, meanwhile, sport lower production costs but face durability and efficiency challenges.

As with any emerging technology, dozens of companies around the world are investing to drive costs lower, push efficiencies higher, and create form factors that could gain real world adoption over time. Which technology will win over the long term remains unknown. For its part, Plug Power specializes in proton exchange membrane systems. There is a possible future, however, where hydrogen fuel demand skyrockets, but the demand is driven by the growing electricity demands of data centers -- an application that isn't as well suited for Plug Power's specific technology.

So, over the next 25 years, it won't just matter what happens to hydrogen demand. Investors must also understand which applications are driving this demand, and whether or not they will benefit Plug Power specifically.

3. Can Plug Power survive financially for another 25 years?
The first two questions regarding long-term demand growth and the specific hydrogen technology being adopted will have huge consequences for Plug Power. Whether or not Plug Power can survive financially to see these questions answered is another issue altogether.

Over the last 25 years, Plug Power has struggled to achieve profitability. Huge government subsidies, plus massive share dilution, have kept the company afloat for now. But there's no denying the obvious: Plug Power is surviving on borrowed time. The company posted a net loss of $227 million last quarter. That's nearly 10% of its entire market cap.

Of course, a huge bump in demand for Plug Power's hydrogen systems could change all of this in a hurry. But as we've seen, there are huge questions surrounding when and if that will happen. So while envisioning another 25-year run for Plug Power is an interesting exercise, whether the company can survive financially for that long remains an open question.

NEW YORK, Oct. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of common stock of Cytokinetics, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYTK) between December 27, 2023 and May 6, 2025, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important November 17, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Cytokinetics common stock 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 Cytokinetics class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=45298 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 November 17, 2025. 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 litigate 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 achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. 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 throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements regarding the timeline for the New Drug Application (“NDA”) submission and approval process for aficamten. Specifically, defendants represented that Cytokinetics expected approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for its NDA for aficamten in the second half of 2025, based on a September 26, 2025 Prescription Drug User Fee Act (“PDUFA”) date, and failed to disclose material risks related to Cytokinetics’ failure to submit a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (“REMS”) that could delay the regulatory process. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the Cytokinetics class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=45298 call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

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.

Snowflake stock is up more than 49% in 2025, but could it rise more?

Despite worries about a looming AI bubble bolstered by rising valuations, an MIT report highlighting low return on AI investments, and strong competition from Databricks and others; Snowflake stock will likely rise higher if the company keeps beating expectations and raising guidance.

Here are three reasons:

Expectations-beating Q2 growth. Strong growth leadership from new CEO.New AI services.Snowflake is happy with its performance and prospects. “Snowflake delivered yet another strong quarter, with product revenue of $1.09 billion, up a strong 32% year-over-year, and remaining performance obligations totaling $6.9 billion,” Snowflake CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy said in an August 27 release.

“Thousands of customers are betting their business on Snowflake and more than 6,100 accounts are using Snowflake’s AI every week. Customers love that our platform is easy to use, connected to enable fluid access to data wherever it sits, and trusted by companies of all sizes and industries. We have an enormous opportunity ahead as we continue to empower every enterprise to achieve its full potential through data and AI,” he added.

Snowflake’s Expectations-Beating Q2 GrowthSnowflake beat expectations for growth and raised guidance – which in my view is the key to a rising stock price.

Snowflake’s second quarter revenue of $1.14 billion rose 32% from the year before and beat FactSet expectations by $50 million while adjusted earnings of 35 cents a share beat expectations by eight cents. For the current quarter, Snowflake forecasted a range – the midpoint of which is $1.126 billion – $60 million higher than consensus, according to Barron’s.

Snowflake raised its product revenue forecast for 2025 to $4.4 billion – $60 million more than Wall Street estimates, noted Barron’s.

Strong Leadership From New CEO Ramaswamy is the third Snowflake CEO I have interviewed. The first was Bob Muglia, a Microsoft veteran who joined as CEO in 2014 and took the company close to the brink of its IPO. Snowflake’s board brought in Frank Slootman – ho had previously taken ServiceNow public – in May 2019, as I wrote in a November 2019 Forbes post.

Founded in 2012, Snowflake’s September 2020 IPO was the largest ever by a software company – raising $3.4 billion. But Snowflake stock fell in 2022 as analysts “questioned its lofty valuation amid decelerating revenue growth,” noted Investor’s Business Daily.

In February 2024 Snowflake appointed Ramaswamy as its new CEO. Snowflake acquired Ramaswamy’s AI startup Neeva and made him a senior vice president. I interviewed Slootman and Ramaswamy before the latter became CEO and came away with the feeling Slootman felt the Neeva founder would be better positioned to capture the AI opportunity, noted a June 2024 Forbes post.

When I first spoke with Ramaswamy, I was uncertain whether he would be up for the challenges of running a public company. But those doubts faded – especially last November after I attended an AI conference in San Francisco where a Snowflake manager praised his ability inspire the company to build AI services aimed at solving customer problems.

New AI Services Targeting Financial ServicesThe company’s most recent results suggest Ramaswamy is still driving product innovation. On October 2, Snowflake announced a new AI product – Cortex AI for financial services – a set of AI tools for banks, insurers and investment firms, noted a company release.

Snowflake sees Cortex AI giving financial services customers – such as Bloomberg, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and JP Morgan – an advantage. “The financial services industry is an adopter of leading edge technology that gives them an edge," Ramaswamy told me in a September 26 interview.

Snowflake’s product is playing catch up with a rival – Databricks which has been developing solutions for specific industries since 2022. Databricks “now has more than a dozen industry- and function-specific platforms, although not all are AI-focused,” reported CRN.

Snowflake decided to start a push into vertical markets with financial services due to strong demand and Snowflake’s large share of the market. “These are customers that are using our AI products heavily, so we wanted to make these solutions a lot easier for them to consume,” Snowflake Vice President of AI Baris Gultekin told CRN.

Snowflake’s offering aims to allow financial institutions to build AI models and agents securely while also drawing from external sources – such as FactSet, MSCI, the Associated Press, Washington Post and Investopedia. The combination of internal and external data can plug into AI chatbots such as Cursor, Anthropic and ChatGPT through Snowflake’s Model Context Protocol server, explained Gultekin.

Lexington Partners, a $76 billion assets under management alternative asset management firm, is testing out Cortex AI. “At Lexington Partners we are creating AI agents using Cortex AI to turn natural language prompts from end users into SQL code that extracts data from Snowflake,” Lexington’s Director and Head of Data & AI Richa Singh told me in an October 1 interview.

Lexington is still testing Cortex AI and expects to make it available to users in 2026. “We have not rolled it out yet,” Singh said. “We are testing it. If we see an error, we add more context into the semantic model. As we add more data, we will build more semantic models.”

Singh previously worked at Goldman Sachs for a decade according to her LinkedIn profile, and has a good feeling about Snowflake. “I have seen the journey when Goldman replaced an on prem data warehouse with Snowflake. When I heard about Cortex AI I thought ‘I trust in Snowflake. Let’s give it a try.’ Snowflake has been very supportive,” she added.

Morgan Stanley wrote Snowflake is preparing to launch a service called Snowflake Intelligence that allows users to engage in natural language conversations with all of their structured and unstructured data. “CEO Ramaswamy called Snowflake Intelligence the most important thing that Snowflake is doing as a company today,” said Morgan Stanley analyst Sanjit Singh in a report featured by IBD.

"The key opportunity behind Snowflake Intelligence is that it directly exposes Snowflake to a much wider audience whereas historically Snowflake was hidden behind dashboards and business intelligence tools like (Salesforce’s) Tableau," Singh added.

Ramaswamy is personally getting significant value from AI agent technology. “I use Raven – a sales agent – to ask questions from SalesForce and WorkDay before showing up for a meeting with customers,” he told me. ”It makes it so much easier to get at the information I want. With Raven I can have six tabs open and ask interesting questions.”

“We have an enormous opportunity ahead as we continue to empower every enterprise to achieve its full potential through data and AI,” Ramaswamy said in the earnings release.

What Analysts Are SayingMany analysts have bullish comments about Snowflake.

Following Snowflake’s Q2 report, Evercore ISI raised its price target to $280. “The combination of accelerating revenue growth and operating margin leverage can drive further multiple expansion from current levels,” Evercore ISI analyst Kirk Materne wrote in a note last month. “There is room for further upward revisions to guidance and Street estimates,” he added.

BTIG raised its price target in the company’s stock to $276. The second-quarter results were “exceptional,” BTIG analyst Gray Powell told IBD. Snowflake will be “a clear beneficiary of AI as companies work to centralize their data to build applications,” he added.

D.A. Davidson pointed out Snowflake’s competition from Databricks – which recently announced an August funding round valuing the company at $100 billion – some $20 billion more than Snowflake’s value. “Both companies have plenty of space in their respective swim lanes, with Snowflake moving increasingly more into Databricks’ swim lane to capture more of the [artificial intelligence/machine learning] growth," D.A. Davidson analyst Gil Luria wrote in a note on Aug. 25.

"So while we acknowledge the concern over competition, we believe that it is nothing for investors to lose sleep over,” he added.

Finally, Morgan Stanley was also bullish. Snowflake is the “best way to play the data modernization theme in Software,” according to an August Morgan Stanley report featured in IBD. “Customers are investing aggressively in data modernization/ transformation initiatives – not just to move to the cloud, but increasingly because progress on their AI ambitions is impossible without them,” added Morgan Stanley’s report.

In my interview last month, Ramaswamy did not shed light on how much additional revenue Cortex AI or Snowflake Intelligence would add to the company’s top line.

Toncoin has recovered above the $2.60 support level as it resumes its upward movement. TON price analysis by Coinidol.com.

TON price long-term forecast: bearish

On September 22, as Coinidol.com reported previosuly, bearish momentum pushed the price below $2.60 before it rebounded. The cryptocurrency found support and closed above $2.60. The altcoin is returning to its previous range, trading above the $2.60 support but below the moving average lines and the resistance at $3.20.

Currently, bullish momentum is encountering resistance at the moving average lines. The price is confined above the $2.60 support but remains below the moving averages. If buyers sustain the price above the moving average lines, TON could reach the previous highs of $3.20 and $3.44. At present, the altcoin is trading at $2.85.

Technical Indicators 

Key Resistance Zones: $4.00, $4.50, and $5.00 

Key Support Zones: $3.50, $3.00, and $2.50

TON indicator analysis

Despite TON's rebound, the price bars remain below the downward-sloping moving average lines. The 21-day SMA is below the 50-day SMA, indicating the previous decline. On the 4-hour chart, the price bars are above the downward-sloping moving average lines.

TON/USD daily chart - October 3, 2025

What is the next move for TON?

TON has been trading sideways, above the $2.60 support and below the moving average lines. Today, the bullish trend broke above the moving averages, reaching a high of $2.87. The decline and subsequent sideways movement resulted from buyers' inability to sustain upward momentum above $2.90.

Ethereum's holding steady at a confident $4,500, with a market cap of $543 billion and a crisp 24-hour trading volume of $36.86 billion. But don't get too relaxed—its intraday range from $4,446 to $4,583 shows this crypto's still got some tricks up its sleeve to keep traders on edge.

A wallet has transferred 271,276 Solana tokens worth $62.30 million to Binance.
The move has sparked sell-off anticipation.
SOL price has declined by 1.02% over the last 24 hours.

A wallet recently transferred over 271k Solana tokens to an exchange platform. This has triggered anticipations about a sell-off and the potential price decline in the days to come. Tokens were transferred around the time when SOL price started a downtrend on the chart. A crypto analyst has hinted at the bull rally of $520, but it is subject to a condition.

Wallet Transferred Solana Tokens to Binance
A wallet has transferred 271,276 Solana tokens to Binance, a crypto exchange platform. They were collectively worth approximately $62.30 million at the time of the transaction. A transfer to Binance has sparked anticipation that the wallet would potentially sell off its holdings in the market.

The move comes after SOL price drops its pace to reach the desired weekly close value. Ali Martinez, also known as ali_charts on X, earlier stated that Solana tokens could experience a bull rally to $520 if they close above $260 this week. The current SOL price does little to inspire that and therefore sheds less light on the estimated bull rally.

SOL Price Plummets
SOL price has plummeted by 1.02% over the last 24 hours. The token is currently exchanging hands at $229.17, with a decline of 8.4% in the 24-hour trading volume. However, the price reflects a surge of 13.65% and 9.97% in the last 7 days and 30 days, respectively.

Nevertheless, what’s possibly impacting the current sentiment is the recent decline and fewer chances of reclaiming the mark of $260 by the end of this week.

Lower values, meanwhile, continue to move upwards for SOL price, and the peaks are shifting almost at the same pace. Earlier low margin was approximately $158.30 as of August 02, 2025. Now the lower level has shifted to around $193.02 as of September 25, 2025.

Sentiments Around SOL Price
Future estimates see SOL price move within a confined range of $230.93 and $237.66 in the next 30 days. The highest rise could be around 3.14% from the current value over the next 30 days. That would bring SOL price to approximately $237.66, which is still away from the analyst’s required week’s close mark.

Solana tokens are testing the support levels of $228.26 and $219.13, along with resistance margins of $246.53 and $237.39. If true, then it could resemble the phase from May 08 to May 30, 2025, when SOL price traded somewhere between $163.41 and $186.10.

SPX6900 Explodes 11% as Bulls Target $2 in Explosive Comeback Rally

Bitcoin has extended its rally after a clean breakout from the descending channel, reclaiming primary structural levels and driving toward the $122K–$124K  all-time high.

While momentum remains strongly bullish, the market is still exposed to a brief pullback toward $114K–$118K to rebalance before any potential continuation toward new highs.

Technical Analysis
By Shayan

The Daily Chart
Bitcoin has continued its upward expansion, breaking through the mid-range resistance and invalidating the prior descending structure that defined September’s price action. The breakout was followed by a rapid move into the upper boundary of the macro range, likely targeting the buy-side liquidity just above the all-time high around $124K.

The price is now holding above the breakout level around $116K–$118K, with the previous decision point at $112K–$114K serving as key support in case of a retracement. Holding above this zone maintains the bullish structure, keeping the $124K–$125K region, where the next liquidity pool sits, as the primary upside target.

Momentum indicators, however, suggest the potential for a short-term corrective move before continuation, allowing the market to build a healthier base for another impulsive leg higher.

The 4-Hour Chart
The recent surge from the $108K demand zone triggered an impulsive rally that left behind several unmitigated areas of interest. The breaker block at $115K–$117K and the Fibonacci retracement cluster between $114.4K and $113.1K now mark the nearest re-entry zones for buyers.

A controlled pullback toward these levels would likely attract renewed demand for continuation toward $124K, where the next major buy-side liquidity cluster lies. If price maintains its current momentum, a sweep above $124K could occur before a corrective phase, aligning with the broader bullish expansion structure as long as the market holds above $111K–$112K.

Sentiment Analysis
By Shayan

Bitcoin’s open interest on Binance has reached a new record, edging past the August peak of $14.306B. This surge coincides with the latest rally, as BTC has climbed from $108K to $124K, while open interest has expanded from $11.5B to $14.3B in just a few weeks. The parallel rise in both price and open interest confirms that the move has been powered by fresh inflows and new position openings, rather than a short-covering squeeze.

This expansion highlights strong conviction from traders on both sides, with institutional and retail participation adding depth to the market. However, the sheer scale of leverage now in play introduces risk. Elevated open interest often acts as a double-edged sword: it can amplify upside moves as trapped shorts unwind, but it can just as quickly trigger liquidation cascades if price momentum stalls.

For now, the structure favors continuation, with BTC pressing into new liquidity zones between $125K and $130K. Yet, the danger lies in the market’s fragility. If Bitcoin fails to extend higher and consolidates while open interest stays elevated, the likelihood of a sharp flush grows, potentially dragging price back toward key demand zones before the broader bullish trend resumes.

In short, record-high open interest reflects both confidence and vulnerability. Traders should closely watch whether open interest continues rising or starts to unwind, as this will determine if the next leg extends smoothly into $130K or if a leverage-driven shakeout interrupts the rally.

‘Solana Is the New Wall Street,’ Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan ExplainsHougan said Solana’s speed, throughput and finality make it “extraordinarily attractive” for those choosing which blockchain to invest in.Updated Oct 4, 2025, 4:50 p.m. Published Oct 4, 2025, 4:47 p.m.

Solana’s role in the race to capture tokenized markets won new attention this week when Bitwise CIO Matthew Hougan called it “the new Wall Street.”

Speaking with Solana Labs’ Akshay Rajan on Oct. 2, Hougan said global financial leaders increasingly recognize the disruptive potential of stablecoins and tokenization.

STORY CONTINUES BELOW

He noted that the heads of the SEC and Bank of England, along with BlackRock’s CEO, have all signaled that digital assets could reshape payments and securities markets. Hougan added that this narrative resonates strongly with investors who understand the scale of change such technologies could bring.

Hougan said that once audiences begin to consider how to gain exposure to blockchain, comparisons between platforms inevitably follow. In that evaluation, he argued, Solana’s combination of speed, throughput and near-instant finality makes it “extraordinarily attractive.”

He cited improvements from 400 microseconds to 150 microseconds in settlement speed, describing the feature as intuitive for those accustomed to trading environments where execution and latency are critical.

Framing Solana as “the new Wall Street,” Hougan said the blockchain’s technical edge is resonating with market participants. He said the narrative is “really resonant” and added that “you’ll see substantial flows.”

Technical Analysis of SOL's Price ActionAccording to CoinDesk Research's technical analysis data model, during the 23-hour session from Oct. 3 at 15:00 UTC to Oct. 4 at 14:00 UTC, SOL traded within a narrow $8.40 range between $228.19 and $237.04, reflecting a period of consolidation.

The high was set at $237.04 around 16:00 on Oct. 3 before steady selling pressure pushed the price lower toward the $228–$229 area, which acted as support.

Trading activity was strongest early in the session, with volumes peaking at 3.29 million units around 17:00, but gradually declined to just 42,637 by the closing hour of the analysis period. This sharp reduction in volume suggested weakening participation and a potential pause before a larger directional move.

In the final 60 minutes, from 13:11 to 14:10 UTC on Oct. 4, SOL broke below the established $228–$229 support zone. Prices fell from $229.84 to $228.94, a 0.39% drop that confirmed the bearish shift.

Within this window, the market showed two phases: an early rebound attempt that briefly lifted the price to $229.78 at 13:38, followed by renewed selling that drove the token down to $228.72.

Importantly, this breakdown coincided with a surge in volume. The single busiest minute occurred at 14:01, when 18,011 units traded — the highest one-minute reading of the session.

This pattern of falling price alongside rising volume suggested larger sellers were active, potentially increasing the likelihood that bearish momentum continues.

Pro-crypto Mike Selig is reportedly the frontrunner to become the next chair of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Selig has also gained backing from Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer (CLO), Stuart Alderoty, who explained why he is the best person for the job.

Mike Selig Emerges As Leading Candidate For CFTC Chair
According to a POLITICO report, the SEC crypto task force chief counsel is emerging as the leading candidate to chair the commission. The crypto regulator is reportedly gaining the upper hand over other contenders for the role.

This follows Trump’s withdrawal of former CFTC Commissioner Brian Quintenz’s nomination as the CFTC chair, following his clash with Tyler Winklevoss. CoinGape had reported that Trump was considering Jill Sommers and Kyle Hauptman for the position alongside Mike Selig.

Notably, the SEC official already has experience at the CFTC, as he worked as a law clerk to former CFTC Chair Chris Giancarlo when he was still a Commissioner. If nominated by Trump and confirmed by the Senate, Selig will take over from Acting Chair Caroline Pham, who reportedly plans to leave the commission once a new chair emerges.

Past Statements Highlight Pro-Crypto Stance
Mike Selig has notably made several statements in support of the crypto industry. In November of last year, he expressed enthusiasm about the imminent departure of former SEC Chair Gary Gensler, noting that it would clear the path for a new administration to develop a pro-crypto regulatory framework and make America the crypto capital of the world.

Gensler is out.

Dealer rule is struck down.

SAB121, safeguarding proposal, exchange definition proposal and anti-crypto lawsuits are DOA.

Clear path for a new administration to develop a pro-crypto regulatory framework and make America the crypto capital of the planet.

— Mike Selig (@MikeSeligEsq) November 21, 2024

He also declared last year that the days of regulation by enforcement were over, following Gensler’s departure, and that crypto projects that successfully navigate the U.S. regulatory, corporate, and tax regimes will be the most successful. The crypto task force chief counsel may have also laid the groundwork for the SEC’s plans to introduce ‘Innovation Exemption’ rules for novel crypto projects.

Last year, Mike Selig urged that whoever became the SEC chair must take a “do not harm” approach to the regulation of the crypto industry and encourage technological innovation within the U.S. He proposed that the chair could do this through “exemptive relief, safe harbors, and an end to regulation by enforcement.”

The SEC official has already received Ripple CLO’s endorsement for the CFTC role. Alderoty stated that no one is better suited than Mike Sigel to harmonize the CFTC and SEC on crypto, as well as “reducing duplicative regulation and patching fragmentation.”

Crypto analyst Bobby revealed that the XRP price has completed a consolidation pattern, hinting at a potential parabolic rally for the altcoin soon. The analyst suggested that XRP’s price could rally to double digits once this rally occurs. 

XRP Price Eyes Rally To $19 As It Completes Double-Bottom Pattern
In an X post, Bobby indicated that the XRP price has completed the macro double-bottom pattern, which it had spent over seven years building. The analyst’s accompanying chart showed that the altcoin is now gearing up for a rally to as high as $19 following the completion of this consolidation pattern. 

Meanwhile, the analyst noted that the XRP price spent over nine months building support near the neckline of the massive W pattern. He added that the altcoin spent the same amount of time consolidating below the 1.618 Fibonacci extension of its latest macro swing high to swing low. 

Source: Chart from Bobby on X
Bobby indicated that the XRP price rally will begin once it breaks through $3.02 and gains monthly acceptance above that level. He expects this move to take XRP into the take-profit levels he has highlighted on several occasions. These levels include $4.7, $6.4, $7.4, and possibly $19, all of which mark new all-time highs (ATHs) for the altcoin. 

The analyst also predicts that the XRP ETFs could spark a rally to between $8 and $13 with possible wicks into the $20 range. These funds are expected to launch this month, depending on when the U.S. government shutdown ends. They provided a bullish outlook for XRP due to the amount of inflows that they could drive into the altcoin’s ecosystem. Meanwhile, it is worth mentioning that Bobby had also earlier alluded to previous cycles as the reason XRP could rally to $13. 

Analyst Sounds Warning To Bulls
Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has warned XRP bulls that the XRP price needs to close above $3.13 to $3.20 on the 3-day chart to sustain the current bullish momentum. His warning followed XRP’s reclaim of the psychological $3 level, which he noted has wrecked the bears. However, the altcoin needs to close above this range, or the bulls are also in danger of getting wrecked. 

Egrag Crypto stated that the XRP price could follow suit if Bitcoin and Ethereum get rejected on their current rallies. He added that the altcoin could head lower, which he believes might actually be better. He assured that the last impulsive move would be explosive and could lead to life-changing gains for the bulls. However, for now, he believes that XRP is simply ranging until it closes above $3.20. 

At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $3, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Could Metaplanet’s Bitcoin reserve be the new financial frontier? Christina Comben · 52 seconds ago · 3 min read

Metaplanet president Simon Gerovich compares his company to Amazon, whose value many people missed in its early days as well: "If you don’t yet see it, that’s understandable—most didn’t see Amazon either.”

Just as Amazon laid the rails for the digital economy, Metaplanet president Simon Gerovich says his company is building the new financial infrastructure. And he argues that the market often misprices companies in periods of structural change, obsessing over price while missing the power beneath the hood.

Like Jeff Bezos’ famous remark during Amazon’s dot-com crash, “The stock is not the company, and the company is not the stock,” Gerovich frames Metaplanet as a case study in misunderstood value, with hard numbers and historical perspective to reinforce his case.

Metaplanet fundamentals stronger than everTo say Metaplanet’s performance this year is impressive would be an understatement of epic proportions. Q3 Bitcoin income revenue soared to ¥2.44 billion, up 115.7% quarter-over-quarter. Operating profit smashed forecasts by 88%, and of all public companies globally, only three now hold more Bitcoin.

Metaplanet now owns over 30,000 BTC, currently valued at approximately $3.7 billion. The balance sheet is pristine, with leverage under 1%, a rarity among crypto-heavy firms.

Short-term price pain is undeniable: Metaplanet’s stock has slid, a blow for team morale and for investors. But as with Amazon in the early 2000s, share price and company value can remain out of sync for extended periods.

Is the Amazon parable plausible?Critics called Gerovich’s comparison to Amazon “ridiculous,” yet he remained undaunted. Early Amazon skeptics saw a glorified online bookstore, missing the multitrillion-dollar rails being laid for the entire digital economy.

Today, he argues, Metaplanet isn’t just a “Bitcoin holding company.” It’s building financial infrastructure for a new monetary epoch, with total addressable market (TAM) measured in the hundreds of trillions (the current valuation of fiat monetary assets globally).

A model as old as banking, as lean as a startupMetaplanet’s business is nothing new: net interest margin. Banks borrow at one rate, lend at a higher one, and pocket the difference. The crucial twist is that Metaplanet’s spread is generated by holding Bitcoin as a reserve asset, funded with nearly costless yen.

Japanese households and businesses currently hold over $10 trillion in idle yen, earning near-zero interest, the raw material for Metaplanet’s higher-yielding model.

Metaplanet doesn’t have the big overheads and bureaucracy of traditional banks. Investors who buy its stock already benefit from its Bitcoin-focused strategy. The company is also looking at ways to offer reliable, higher-yield options for people in Japan who want better returns; ideas that could expand worldwide.

The big picture: Bitcoin as pristine collateralMetaplanet’s bet is simple yet ambitious: Bitcoin is becoming the world’s hardest collateral. The migration of investors, from JPY earners to global USD pools, will seek yield, safety, and return, and Metaplanet is building the bridge to facilitate that shift.

There is more than $100 trillion sitting in global savings and banking accounts, earning less than inflation. If Bitcoin becomes more widely accepted, as Metaplanet believes, even a small portion of that money moving into Bitcoin could dramatically change the company’s growth and value.

Great companies often look most undervalued just as their moat deepens and the market can’t see over the near-term horizon. Metaplanet’s thesis is that the Bitcoin balance sheet isn’t a gimmick, but the linchpin for a $100 trillion+ yield opportunity. As Gerovich states:

“This is not small vision. It is one of the largest opportunities in global markets. If you don’t yet see it, that’s understandable—most didn’t see Amazon either.”

The market might not “get it” yet, but history shows the fundamentals should eventually force a repricing. And just like Amazon, building something new often means waiting for the market to catch up.

A curious divergence is capturing the attention of investors in the basic materials sector. On the one hand, the copper market is sending powerful signals, with prices supported by forecasts of massive and sustained demand.

On the other hand, shares of industry leader Freeport-McMoRan NYSE: FCX have faced significant turbulence. This disconnect between a booming commodity market and the volatility of its top producer has created a compelling scenario, raising the question of whether a strategic opportunity has emerged from the market noise.

Get Freeport-McMoRan alerts:

An Electrified World Runs on Copper
The long-term case for copper has rarely been stronger. The metal is the undisputed backbone of the global economy's next chapter, making it a critical resource for decades to come. This demand is not speculative; it is rooted in three powerful, simultaneous global shifts that are fundamentally reshaping the energy and technology landscape.

First, the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables is incredibly copper-intensive. Electric vehicles (EVs) require up to four times more copper than their internal combustion counterparts. Meanwhile, wind and solar farms consume tons of the metal per megawatt of capacity, and the modernization of national power grids to handle this new energy mix requires even more.

Second, the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution is creating a new and formidable source of demand. AI data centers are immensely power-hungry facilities that require extensive copper wiring and components for cooling systems and power distribution. Finally, ongoing urbanization and infrastructure modernization globally continue to provide a steady, foundational layer of consumption.

This demand surge is running headlong into a constrained supply environment. The pipeline for new, large-scale copper mines is thin, as significant discoveries are rare and the lead time from finding a deposit to producing metal can stretch over a decade. This classic supply-demand squeeze has prompted institutions like Bank of America NYSE: BAC to upgrade their long-term price forecasts, creating a powerful tailwind for established producers.

Primed for Profit: Freeport's Unique Market Position
In this bullish environment, Freeport-McMoRan stands out as a premier investment vehicle. As one of the world’s largest publicly traded copper producers with a market capitalization of over $56 billion, the company's scale and portfolio of long-life assets give it a distinct advantage. This strength is particularly evident in its home market.

Freeport-McMoRan supplies approximately 70% of all domestically refined copper in the United States. This position has become even more valuable following recent U.S. tariff announcements, which have caused the price of copper on the domestic COMEX exchange to trade at a significant premium to the global London Metal Exchange (LME) benchmark. This premium directly benefits FCX's U.S. operations, enhancing margins on a substantial portion of its production.

The company’s financial health further solidifies its position. It reported strong second-quarter 2025 results that surpassed analyst expectations, with revenues of $7.58 billion and earnings per share (EPS) of 54 cents. The quarter also generated $2.2 billion in operating cash flow, underscoring its ability to convert high commodity prices into substantial cash.

With a low debt-to-equity ratio of just 0.30, the company maintains a robust balance sheet. Operationally, FCX recently achieved a major strategic milestone with the successful start-up of its new copper smelter in Indonesia. This crucial de-risking event transitions its massive Grasberg operation into a fully integrated producer, helping to secure its long-term mining rights in the country.

Seeing Opportunity in the Volatility
The primary driver of the stock's recent volatility was a temporary production halt at the Grasberg mine following a tragic mud rush incident on Sept. 8. The event pushed the stock down from highs around $46 per share, creating significant concern. However, Wall Street’s reaction suggests that many view this as a short-term issue, creating a long-term opportunity.

Following the sell-off, several influential analyst firms upgraded the stock, signaling confidence in its recovery.

Bank of America raised its rating from Neutral to Buy with a $42.00 price target, framing the price drop as an attractive entry point.
Bernstein SocGen Group upgraded its rating from Market Perform to Outperform, setting a price target of $48.50.

This sentiment is echoed in the options market, where unusually high trading volumes have indicated that institutional traders are making significant bets on a future rebound.

While the company prudently declared force majeure to manage contractual obligations, the long-term value of the Grasberg asset remains unchanged. The issue is viewed by many analysts as a matter of timing, not a permanent loss of resources.

A Strategic Entry Point Into Freeport-McMoRan?
For investors, Freeport-McMoRan's story is one of resilience and strategic positioning. The robust, multi-decade demand for copper provides an undeniable tailwind. The company’s strong financial health, operational milestones, and dominant market share, particularly in the premium-priced U.S. market, demonstrate its ability to execute effectively.

Further underscoring this stability is the company's commitment to shareholder returns. Freeport McMoRan pays a consistent annual dividend of 30 cents per share, representing a yield of 0.77%. This reliable dividend, even amidst operational challenges, signals management's confidence in its long-term cash flow generation. 

With a consensus Moderate Buy rating and an average analyst price target of around $46.50, there is a clear path for potential upside from its current trading level. While the recovery at Grasberg will remain a key focus, the market's reaction suggests that for investors with a strategic long-term perspective, the recent volatility may represent a compelling opportunity.

NEW YORK, Oct. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

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 Fortinet, Inc. (“Fortinet” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:FTNT) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of all persons and entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Fortinet common stock between November 8, 2024 through August 6, 2025, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”).Investors have until November 21, 2025 to apply to the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit. Allegation Details:

The Fortinet class action lawsuit alleges that: (i) defendants knew that the refresh cycle would never be as lucrative as they represented, nor could it, because it consisted of old products that were a "small percentage" of Fortinet's business; (ii) defendants misrepresented and concealed that they did not have a clear picture of the true number of FortiGate firewalls that could be upgraded; and (iii) while telling investors that the refresh would gain momentum over the course of two years, Fortinet misrepresented and concealed that it had aggressively pushed through roughly half of the refresh in a period of months, by the end of the second quarter of 2025.The Fortinet class action lawsuit further alleges that on August 6, 2025, Fortinet revealed during its earnings call that Fortinet was already "approximately 40% to 50% of the way through the 2026 upgrade cycle at the end of the second quarter [of 2025]." The complaint also alleges that defendants: (i) admitted that "it's hard[] for us to predict" the total number of FortiGates requiring an upgrade; (ii) suggested customers had "excess [firewall] capacity from [purchasing firewalls in] prior years" and therefore did not need to upgrade; and (iii) revealed that the refresh could not have had "much business impact" as it consisted of only a "small percentage" of Fortinet's business because the products were "12 to 15 years" old and had been sold at a time when Fortinet's business was 5-10 times smaller, meaning that the total number of FortiGates eligible for an upgrade was inherently limited. On this news, the price of Fortinet common stock fell more than 22%, according to the complaint. Next Steps:

If you purchased or otherwise acquired Fortinet shares and suffered a loss, are a long-term stockholder, have information, would like to learn more about these claims, or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Brandon Walker or Marion Passmore by email at [email protected], telephone at (212) 355-4648, or by filling out this contact form.

Tilray Brands reports earnings next week, which could determine whether its recent rally holds up.

Shares of Tilray Brands (TLRY 0.62%) have been hot in recent months. Since the start of July, the stock has soared by around 300%. Excitement around possible cannabis reform in the U.S. has investors bullish on the Canadian-based company's potential growth opportunities.

The big question is, can this rally continue? With earnings set to come out next week, on Oct. 9, there could soon be another catalyst to look out for. If Tilray shows progress and is able to improve its financials, that may lead to even further gains. But if that isn't the case, then there may be some pullback.

Should you take a chance and buy Tilray stock before it releases its upcoming results, or are you better off holding off?

Tilray's business has struggled to grow and stay out of the red over the years, and that's put it in the doghouse with investors. Although it has been surging in recent months, it's still down over 65% in the past five years. It hasn't been a great buy.

The bad news is that the company's quarterly earnings numbers don't normally spark a positive rally. In fact, it's not unusual to see a sell-off after its numbers come out.

TLRY data by YCharts.

The challenges in a hyper-competitive cannabis market in Canada make it difficult for not only Tilray but other marijuana producers to do well. Its earnings reports often serve as painful reminders of how the business simply isn't performing up to expectations. Given the stock's recent rally, there's the potential that it makes Tilray's stock vulnerable for yet another steep sell-off this month.

Tilray's financials need a lot of work
In July, Tilray wrapped up its most recent fiscal year, for the period ended May 31. Its net revenue totaled $821.3 million, which was an increase of 4% year over year. That may not sound too bad, but consider that its core cannabis business experienced a 9% decline, with that segment's sales falling to $249 million.

Over the years, Tilray has expanded into alcohol and wellness products. These have helped diversify its revenue mix and allowed it to grow its top line, making it less dependent on cannabis. Without acquisitions padding its sales, it may have had an even more difficult time in attracting growth investors.

However, all those acquisitions haven't been paying off on the bottom line. Tilray's operating loss last year totaled $174.7 million. It was an improvement from the previous year when its loss was a whopping $2.1 billion, but that was largely due to impairment charges. In short, this is a money-losing business with minimal organic growth.

Tilray's stock isn't worth gambling on
Cannabis investors have heard for years about how marijuana reform and legalization are coming soon in the U.S., and yet, there's been virtually no progress. Even bills to pass safe banking for the industry have stalled. I've seen this cycle many times before in the industry, when the hype around reform eventually gives way to the gloom and reality that nothing is on the horizon.

Tilray is a highly speculative stock, and it has effectively been a way for investors to bet on whether marijuana reform is likely. When hopes are high, shares of Tilray go up. But when reality comes crashing down, so too does the stock. The company's earnings likely won't be a positive catalyst for the business given its ongoing struggles, and there's a significant risk that it could nosedive afterwards. This is a stock I'd stay far away from today.

NEW YORK, Oct. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of V.F. Corporation (NYSE: VFC) between October 30, 2023 and May 20, 2025, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important November 12, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased V.F. Corporation 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 V.F. Corporation class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=44811 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 November 12, 2025. 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 litigate 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 achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. 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 disseminated materially false and misleading statements and/or concealed material adverse facts concerning the true state of V.F. Corporation’s turnaround plans. Specifically, defendants provided investors with material information concerning V.F. Corporation’s turnaround plan (“Reinvent”), which in part focused on efforts to return the Vans brand to positive growth. The lawsuit alleges that defendants concealed that additional significant reset actions would be necessary to return the Vans brand to growth, and would result in significant setbacks to Vans’ revenue growth trajectory. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the V.F. Corporation class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=44811 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

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.

Robinhood Lists Strategy’s Preferred Stocks Including STRC — and Why This Matters for BitcoinRobinhood’s listing of Strategy’s preferred stocks could fund more bitcoin buys without tapping new MSTR stock issuance, a move that may boost BTC demand. Oct 4, 2025, 1:32 p.m.

Robinhood’s decision to list Strategy’s four preferred stocks marks a rare break from its own investment policies — and could strengthen Michael Saylor’s bitcoin playbook without diluting holders of the firm’s common stock, MSTR.

Robinhood’s rare policy shiftThe brokerage began offering trading in four Strategy (MSTR) preferred stocks on Oct. 2, with tickers STRC, STRD, STRF, and STRK now available on the platform.

STORY CONTINUES BELOW

The next day, CEO Vlad Tenev confirmed the move on X, saying Robinhood had “heard from many Strategy investors that this was an important factor before moving their accounts.”

That detail matters because Robinhood’s own website still states that it does not currently support preferred stocks, grouping them with foreign equities and mutual funds under “unsupported assets.” The inclusion of Strategy’s securities is therefore a rare policy shift, suggesting unusual demand from retail investors seeking exposure to the company’s bitcoin-linked products.

Inside Strategy’s preferred stock programStrategy, formerly MicroStrategy, has developed a suite of four preferred stocks —STRC, STRD, STRF, and STRK — as an alternative way to raise capital for its bitcoin acquisition strategy. These instruments function like digital credit products, giving the company fresh funding without directly diluting holders of its common equity (MSTR).

Each class offers a different blend of yield, seniority and conversion terms:

STRC serves as the flagship, perpetual preferred stock, paying a floating yield linked to U.S. Treasury rates.STRD features a fixed-rate coupon and shorter maturity, appealing to more conservative investors.STRF provides flexible redemption rights for institutional holders.STRK is the riskiest, higher-yield tranche, designed for investors seeking maximum exposure to Strategy’s bitcoin strategy.For investors, this structure matters because it allows Strategy to expand its bitcoin holdings aggressively while limiting equity dilution for existing MSTR shareholders.

It also creates yield-bearing securities tied indirectly to the company’s bitcoin playbook — something traditional yield-bearing stablecoins have struggled to achieve under U.S. regulation.

Why the move could matter for bitcoinOn X, Stony Chambers, a Seeking Alpha analyst, called $STRC “the iPhone moment” for crypto-linked securities — arguing that its debut as Robinhood’s first-ever preferred listing shows “real product-market fit.”

Chambers speculated that future catalysts such as ratings coverage, tokenization, or even stablecoin allocation could trigger “vertical jumps” in demand for STRC. While his projections are highly speculative, his comments underscore how the new listings could expand retail participation in Strategy’s ecosystem.

Ultimately, the change gives Saylor’s firm a potentially powerful new funding avenue — and for bitcoin, another indirect demand driver as one of its largest corporate holders gains easier retail access to capital.
