Market Signal Briefing

November 21, 2025 7:55 PM EST | Source: The Rosen Law Firm PA
New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - November 21, 2025) - WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of common stock of James Hardie Industries plc (NYSE: JHX) between May 20, 2025 through August 18, 2025, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period") of the important December 23, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased James Hardie 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 James Hardie class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=46976 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 December 23, 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 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, James Hardie Industries plc misled investors about the strength of its key North America Fiber Cement segment between May 20 and August 18, 2025. Despite knowing by April and early May that distributors were destocking inventory, James Hardie falsely claimed demand remained strong and that stock levels were "normal." When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the James Hardie class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=46976 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.

, /PRNewswire/ -- Robbins LLP reminds stockholders that a class action was filed on behalf of all investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Jayud Global Logistics Limited (NASDAQ: JYD) securities between April 21, 2023 and April 30, 2025. The Company claims to provide a range of worldwide cross-border supply chain solution services.

For more information, submit a form, email attorney Aaron Dumas, Jr., or give us a call at (800) 350-6003.

The Allegations: Robbins LLP is Investigating Allegations that Jayud Global Logistics Limited (JYD) Engaged in a Fraudulent Stock Promotion Scheme    

According to the complaint, during the class period defendants failed to disclose: (1) that Jayud was the subject of a fraudulent stock promotion scheme involving social media-based misinformation and impersonated financial professionals; (2) that insiders and/or affiliates used offshore or nominee accounts to facilitate the coordinated dumping of shares during a price inflation campaign; and (3) that Jayud's public statements and risk disclosures omitted any mention of the false rumors and artificial trading activity driving the stock price.

Plaintiff alleges that in the weeks leading up to April 2025, Jayud's share price surged from roughly $1.00 to an all-time high of around $8.00 per share, despite no fundamental news from the Company to justify such a spike. Investigations and public reports have since revealed that Jayud used a primary vehicle for an illicit "pump-and-dump" promotion scheme. Impersonators touted Jayud in online forums, chat groups, and social media posts with sensational but baseless claims to create a buying frenzy among retail investors.

What Now: You may be eligible to participate in the class action against Jayud Global Logistics Limited. Shareholders who wish to serve as lead plaintiff for the class must file their papers with the court by January 20, 2026. The lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.  You do not have to participate in the case to be eligible for a recovery. If you choose to take no action, you can remain an absent class member. For more information, click here.

All representation is on a contingency fee basis. Shareholders pay no fees or expenses. 

About Robbins LLP: A recognized leader in shareholder rights litigation, the attorneys and staff of Robbins LLP have been dedicated to helping shareholders recover losses, improve corporate governance structures, and hold company executives accountable for their wrongdoing since 2002.

(“South Star” or the “Company”) (TSXV: STS) (OTCQB: STSBF) is pleased to announce the closing of its third and final tranche of the previously announced non-brokered private placement of units (the “Unit Offering”) and to report the results of its Annual General and Special Meeting (the “AGSM”) held on November 17, 2025 in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Closing of Third and Final Tranche

Further to its news releases dated September 30, 2025, October 10, 2025, October 31, 2025 and November 7, 2025, the Company has closed the third and final tranche of its previously announced Unit Offering, issuing 22,744,253 units (the “Units”) at a price of C$0.15 per Unit for gross proceeds of C$3,411,638 (approximately US$2,454,416).

Each Unit consists of one common share (a “Share”) and one common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional Share at a price of C$0.20 per Share for a period of five (5) years from the closing date, subject to acceleration. The expiry date of the Warrants may be accelerated, at the option of the Company, if at any time after four (4) months following the closing date, the closing price of the Company’s Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) is at or above C$0.40 for ten (10) consecutive trading days, provided that the Company gives thirty (30) days’ prior notice to the holders by news release.

The securities issued under the third tranche of the Unit Offering are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities laws. Net proceeds from the Unit Offering will be used for exploration and development activities, general and administrative expenses, and working capital. The Unit Offering remains subject to final approval of the Exchange.

Including the first and second tranches closed on October 10, 2025 and October 31, 2025, the Company raised total gross proceeds of C$6,672,000 (approximately US$4,800,000) under the Unit Offering.

At closing of the third and final tranche, funds directed and controlled by Mr. Tiago Cunha own an aggregate of 25,455,552 Shares, or 23.92% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Shares. Such insider participation constitutes a “related party transaction” under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) thereof, as the fair market value of the securities subscribed for does not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.

In connection with Unit Offering, the Company paid aggregate finder’s fees of C$258,995 (approximately US$186,328) in cash, including US$178,752 paid to A8 Capital Advisors. The Company also issued 1,987,722 Shares to A8 Capital Advisors as a finder’s fee.

President Donald Trump on Friday hosted New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani at the White House where they discussed affordability issues and called for lower electricity prices in the city, which caused a major utility's stock to sink.

Trump and Mamdani, a democratic socialist, spoke to reporters in the Oval Office following their meeting and said that they intend to focus on addressing affordability issues, which Mamdani noted helped increase Trump's level of support in New York City and was something his campaign tapped into.

"When we asked those New Yorkers who had voted for the president, and when we saw an increase in his numbers in New York City, that came back to the same issue – cost of living, cost of living, cost of living. They spoke about the cost of rent, the cost of Con Ed, the cost of childcare," Mamdani explained.

Consolidated Edison, commonly known as Con Ed, is the main utility provider in New York City and has over 3 million customers, and President Trump echoed the need to reduce energy bills facing New Yorkers – saying there need to be talks with the company about lowering prices.

"We talked about Con Edison. We have to work a little bit on getting the prices, because you know, we've gotten fuel prices way down, but it hasn't shown up in Con Edison," Trump said.

"We're going to have to talk to them, you know, if we're sending them fuel at a much lower price than it was a year ago, which is true, we have to get Con Edison to start lowering their rates," he added.

Con Edison told FOX Business the company "powers the economic engine of our country by delivering the most reliable energy to more than 9 million people who live, work, and travel through New York City every day."

"We recognize affordability is a critical issue and work every day to balance the investments needed for resilience and reliability with customer costs. We welcome the opportunity to partner with the Mayor-elect on solutions that make New York affordable for everyone," the company added.

Following Trump and Mamdani's comments, Con Ed shares sank to close the week. Con Ed stock opened Friday's session at $101.48 and hit a high of $103.28 – but it sank to a low of $99.55 following those remarks. The stock closed at $100.16, down 0.78% on Friday.

The Fox News Voter Poll found that while a 59% majority of New York City voters felt their family's financial situation was holding steady, 22% felt that they were falling behind and just 17% felt they were getting ahead – with Mamdani leading among those holding steady or falling behind.

Voters said that the cost of living was the most important issue facing New York City, with 55% of respondents to the Fox News Voter Poll focusing on pocketbook issues, with the next closest issue being crime at 23%.

The company is wasting little time figuring out the particulars of a sweeping capital investment program.

AstraZeneca (AZN +2.62%) stock finished the trading week in style, rising by nearly 3% in value on Friday. That was due to news from the company that it's expanding its manufacturing footprint in the U.S. That price rise was high enough to convincingly beat the S&P 500 index, which crept up by almost 1%.

$2 billion for 2 facilities
AstraZeneca announced it is investing $2 billion in expanding its drug-making capabilities in Maryland, specifically at an existing plant in Frederick and a new one in Gaithersburg. The former is a manufacturing site for biologics, while the latter is planned as a state-of-the-art facility for innovative molecules that will be used in clinical trials.

The pharmaceutical company said that once completed, the Gaithersburg plant will double its current capacity. This will allow it to produce the entirety of its rare disease portfolio at the plant.

AstraZeneca added that the two complexes are to harness artificial intelligence (AI) and automation in their processes. They are expected to be fully operational by 2029.

The Maryland projects are part of a much larger $50 billion global investment program announced by the company in July.

A good time for expansion
AstraZeneca is certainly ambitious, and these days it has the resources to make projects like this happen -- it held over $6 billion in cash at the end of its most recently reported quarter. Onshoring the rare disease drugs to this country is a clever move, given the size and resiliency of the U.S. market, and we could say the same for beefing up its presence in the Mid-Atlantic region generally.

The largest U.S. health insurer's shares have seen a decrease of 13.57% over the last month, not keeping up with the Medical sector's gain of 4.76% and the S&P 500's loss of 2.79%.

Investors will be eagerly watching for the performance of UnitedHealth Group in its upcoming earnings disclosure. The company's upcoming EPS is projected at $2.07, signifying a 69.60% drop compared to the same quarter of the previous year. Simultaneously, our latest consensus estimate expects the revenue to be $113.53 billion, showing a 12.62% escalation compared to the year-ago quarter.

In terms of the entire fiscal year, the Zacks Consensus Estimates predict earnings of $16.29 per share and a revenue of $447.97 billion, indicating changes of -41.11% and +11.91%, respectively, from the former year.

Investors should also take note of any recent adjustments to analyst estimates for UnitedHealth Group. Recent revisions tend to reflect the latest near-term business trends. As a result, upbeat changes in estimates indicate analysts' favorable outlook on the business health and profitability.

Our research demonstrates that these adjustments in estimates directly associate with imminent stock price performance. To utilize this, we have created the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model that integrates these estimate changes and provides a functional rating system.

The Zacks Rank system, stretching from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), has a noteworthy track record of outperforming, validated by third-party audits, with stocks rated #1 producing an average annual return of +25% since the year 1988. Over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate has moved 0.66% higher. UnitedHealth Group presently features a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold).

In the context of valuation, UnitedHealth Group is at present trading with a Forward P/E ratio of 19.13. For comparison, its industry has an average Forward P/E of 11.81, which means UnitedHealth Group is trading at a premium to the group.

We can additionally observe that UNH currently boasts a PEG ratio of 2.03. Comparable to the widely accepted P/E ratio, the PEG ratio also accounts for the company's projected earnings growth. The Medical - HMOs industry currently had an average PEG ratio of 1.16 as of yesterday's close.

The Medical - HMOs industry is part of the Medical sector. At present, this industry carries a Zacks Industry Rank of 203, placing it within the bottom 18% of over 250 industries.

The Zacks Industry Rank gauges the strength of our industry groups by measuring the average Zacks Rank of the individual stocks within the groups. Our research shows that the top 50% rated industries outperform the bottom half by a factor of 2 to 1.

It's my pleasure to now introduce Sean McClain, CEO; and Zach Jonasson, CFO of Absci Corporation. Just a reminder, there will be a 20-minutes presentation following with 5 minutes Q&A. Thank you.

Sean McClain
Founder, CEO, President & Director

Thank you. I'm Sean McClain, the Founder and CEO of Absci. We are a generative design company focused on using AI to really tackle some of the hardest problems in drug discovery, being able to go after some of these undruggable targets that have known biology that traditional approaches have been struggling to ultimately drug. Now if you look at AI drug discovery over the past few years, there's been a lot of companies that have been emerging. And they talk about new model improvements and ultimately, what the efficiencies of these models are. But at the end of the day, we really need to see the translation in the clinic.

And in the next 24 months, we're going to see how that translation looks with 2 of Absci's assets, ABS-201 in AGA as well as endometriosis. We'll have 2 Phase II readouts in the next 24 months. If you look at our team, we're not just AI scientists, but we're multilingual. We have an AI team, a disease biology team as well as a bunch of drug hunters that ultimately work together to leverage this technology to ultimately go after diseases that have been difficult to address in the past. Additionally, we have a data flywheel where we're constantly learning. We're able to take data from our 77,000 square foot automated wet lab and be able to use that data to ultimately train our models and rapidly learn. So in a 6-week time period, we can

NEW YORK, Nov. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of CarMax, Inc. (NYSE: KMX) between June 20, 2025 and November 5, 2025, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”) of the important January 2, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline in the securities class action first filed by the Firm.

SO WHAT: If you purchased CarMax 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 CarMax class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=47077 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 January 2, 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. 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 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 90Laurence 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 materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) defendants recklessly overstated CarMax’s growth prospects when, in reality, its earlier growth in the 2026 fiscal year was a temporary benefit from customers buying cars due to speculation regarding tariffs; and (2) as a result, defendants’ statements about CarMax’s business, operations and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the CarMax class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=47077 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.
