Why This Wealth Firm Trimmed Its Mid-Cap Exposure by $3 Million stocknewsapi
FNX
Fortress Wealth Group (FWG Holdings) reduced its position in the First Trust Mid Cap Core AlphaDEX Fund (FNX +0.46%) in the third quarter, selling an estimated $3.3 million based on average prices during the quarter, according to an SEC filing on Thursday.

What HappenedFlorida-based Fortress Wealth Group disclosed in a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Form 13F filing released on Thursday that it sold 27,140 shares of the First Trust Mid Cap Core AlphaDEX Fund (FNX +0.46%) during the third quarter. The estimated value of the sale was $3.3 million. The fund reported holding 11,107 shares worth $1.4 million at the end of the period.

What Else to KnowFWG Holdings' sale reduced its FNX position to 0.6% of reportable 13F assets.

Top holdings following the filing:

ETF OverviewMetricValueAUM$1.2 billionYield0.9%Price (as of market close Friday)$124.391-year price change8%ETF SnapshotFNX's investment strategy seeks to generate positive alpha by selecting mid-cap stocks from the NASDAQ US 600 Mid Cap Index using the AlphaDEX® methodology. The portfolio is diversified across U.S. mid-cap equities, with holdings determined by a quantitative selection process. The fund operates as an exchange-traded fund (ETF) with a structured, rules-based approach.

Foolish TakeFortress Wealth Group’s third-quarter reduction in the First Trust Mid Cap Core AlphaDEX Fund appears to be part of a broader portfolio recalibration, as opposed to a shift away from equities altogether. The Florida-based wealth advisory sold 27,140 shares valued at roughly $3.3 million, according to an SEC filing released Thursday, leaving a smaller $1.4 million position at quarter-end.

FNX—a mid-cap equity with top holdings ETF Bloom Energy Corporation, Symbiotic and Guardant Health—has trailed the broader S&P 500 over the past year, up just 8% versus the benchmark’s nearly 20% gain. For a firm like Fortress, which emphasizes risk management, diversification, and steady growth, the sale may reflect a tactical rotation toward large-cap or income-generating assets, evident in its top holdings such as VUG, VTV, and FBND.

For long-term investors, FNX remains a disciplined way to access the mid-cap space—but recent performance highlights the challenge of factor-driven strategies in momentum-heavy markets. Fortress’ adjustment suggests a pragmatic tilt toward balance and consistency in an evolving rate and earnings environment.

APi Group: Regulation-Backed Recurring Revenue With Long AI/Data Center Upside stocknewsapi
APG
SummaryAPi Group is rated a strong buy, leveraging regulatory-driven recurring revenue and emerging AI/data center infrastructure demand for robust, defensible growth.APG's valuation implies ~27% upside, with a probability-weighted intrinsic value of $44/share, not fully reflecting AI and data center expansion potential.The company's moat is built on mandatory safety inspections, high-margin service contracts, and efficient acquisition integration, driving margin expansion and predictable cash flow.Downside risks include project delays, competitive pricing pressure, and dilution from preferred equity, but APG's diversified model and strong FCF mitigate these concerns. N-sky/iStock via Getty Images

Investment Thesis The investment case for APi Group (APG) lies in its expanding exposure to data center and AI-related infrastructure, specifically fire suppression and life-safety retrofits within hyperscale and enterprise computation facilities.

The revenue mix shifting to ISM is visible

2 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stocks That Could Soon Join the $1 Trillion Club stocknewsapi
AMD ORCL
These top tech stocks offer an attractive combination of growth and value.

Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to represent an attractive investment opportunity for investors. Major tech companies continue to announce significant deals for data centers, supercomputers, and advanced chips to power AI services across the economy.

Several leading AI companies in software and semiconductors are already worth trillions in market cap (share price times total shares outstanding). There are two tech stocks currently valued much lower that could soon join the elite ranks of $1 trillion companies. They are:

Image source: Getty Images.

1. Advanced Micro Devices
Investors have been mostly focused on the ascent of Nvidia, the dominant leader in graphics processing units (GPUs) that are required for training AI workloads. But Advanced Micro Devices' (AMD +0.68%) stock has surged 118% this year, reaching a market cap of $428 billion. Investor interest is picking up as AMD has made major strides in improving the cost-performance ratio of its GPUs. This is being validated by recent deals.

AMD was chosen to provide advanced computing solutions for two supercomputers that are being built for the U.S. Department of Energy. This is a huge win for AMD, since it just adds to its revenue potential over the next several years. These supercomputers will serve as "AI factories" that will bring advanced AI solutions to major sectors of the economy, including energy, healthcare, and national security.

AMD's GPU capabilities are also being validated by being deployed by seven of the top 10 AI model makers. The company's data center revenue grew 14% year over year in Q2, but this is likely to accelerate next year as AMD launches its MI400 series of GPUs, with ChatGPT maker OpenAI already on board to use these chips.

Despite the stock's recent surge, it still doesn't look all that expensive. The stock trades at a forward (1-year) price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple of 42, which is supported by its growth prospects. Analysts expect the company's earnings to grow at an annualized rate of nearly 40% over the next several years. Assuming the stock continues to trade around the same P/E, the shares could more than double over the next five years, sending AMD stock to a $1 trillion market cap.

2. Oracle
Oracle (ORCL +2.23%) has the easiest path to potentially reaching $1 trillion in market cap, given that it already has a market value of about $785 billion at the time of writing. But investors should set their sights on $2 trillion. The stock has already climbed 65% year to date following accelerating growth in its cloud infrastructure business.

Oracle has been a leader in database management for many years, and it's just now starting to step up its game in AI cloud offerings. Its cloud infrastructure segment posted an impressive 55% year-over-year increase in revenue in the fiscal first quarter, which ended in August. This follows notable deals with OpenAI, xAI, AMD, and other tech leaders.

Oracle's remaining performance obligations (RPO) are $455 billion, which is quite large next to its trailing-12-month revenue of $59 billion. Even if Oracle could only fulfill half of that contracted revenue, it would significantly benefit the stock. The expanding RPO reflects Oracle's leadership in offering world-class database services and increasing data center capacity worldwide. In fact, Oracle has already signed additional contracts that will push its RPO above $500 billion in the current quarter. Management's guidance calls for its cloud infrastructure business to grow 77% for the full year.

The stock appears reasonably valued at a forward (1-year) P/E of 34, especially considering analysts have recently raised their long-term growth forecast. The current estimate has Oracle's earnings growing at an annualized rate of 23% in the coming years, which could send the stock well past $1 trillion on its way to a $2 trillion market cap within the next five years.

The outstanding debt securities listed in (i) the first table above labeled “Pool 1” are referred to collectively as the “Pool 1 Notes,” and (ii) the second table above labeled “Pool 2” are referred to as the “Pool 2 Notes.” The Pool 1 Notes and the Pool 2 Notes are referred to collectively as the “Notes,” and each series of Notes is referred to as a “series.” The offers to purchase the Pool 1 Notes are referred to collectively as the “Pool 1 Offers,” the offers to purchase the Pool 2 Notes are referred to as the “Pool 2 Offers,” and each offers to purchase a series of Notes is referred to as an “Offer.”

The Offers are subject to the terms and conditions described in the Offer to Purchase dated November 3, 2025 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”) which sets forth a detailed description of the Offers, including (i) the Acceptance Priority Procedures (as described below), (ii) a $4,000,000,000 maximum aggregate purchase price of the Pool 1 Notes validly tendered in the Pool 1 Offers, excluding the applicable Accrued Coupon Payments (the “Pool 1 Maximum”), and (iii) a $3,000,000,000 maximum aggregate purchase price of the Pool 2 Notes validly tendered in the Pool 2 Offers, excluding the applicable Accrued Coupon Payments (the “Pool 2 Maximum”).

The primary purpose of the Offers is to acquire the maximum principal amount of Pool 1 Notes and Pool 2 Notes in the designated priority order for which the aggregate purchase price (excluding the applicable Accrued Coupon Payments) does not exceed the Pool 1 Maximum and the Pool 2 Maximum, respectively. Notes that are accepted and purchased in the Offers will be canceled and will no longer remain outstanding obligations of the Offeror. The Offers are subject to certain other general conditions as described in the Offer to Purchase, as well as the condition that BMS Ireland Capital Funding Designated Activity Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bristol Myers Squibb (“Finance Sub”), shall have completed an offering of debt securities (the “New Notes Offering”) on terms and conditions satisfactory to Bristol Myers Squibb that results in the receipt of net proceeds that, when taken together with approximately $3.0 billion of Bristol Myers Squibb's cash on hand, is sufficient to pay the consideration for all Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and accepted for purchase by Bristol Myers Squibb, plus accrued and unpaid interest and related fees and expenses (the “Financing Condition”). The Offers are not conditioned on any minimum amount of Notes being tendered, and none of the Offers are conditioned on the consummation of the other Offers. Each Offer may be amended, extended or, upon failure of a condition to be satisfied or waived prior to the applicable Early Tender Deadline (for any Offers for which the Offeror elects to exercise its Early Settlement Right (as defined below)) or the applicable Expiration Date (for any Notes not settled on the Early Settlement Date), terminated individually.

The Offers will each expire at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on December 3, 2025, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Offeror (such date and time with respect to an Offer, as the same may be extended with respect to such Offer, the “Expiration Date”). To be eligible to receive the Total Consideration, which includes the Early Tender Premium, Holders must validly tender their Notes at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on November 17, 2025, unless extended (such date and time with respect to an Offer, as the same may be extended with respect to such Offer, the “Early Tender Deadline”). Holders who validly tender their Notes after the applicable Early Tender Deadline, but at or prior to the applicable Expiration Date, will be eligible to receive the Tender Consideration for any such series accepted for purchase. Bristol Myers Squibb expects to use the net proceeds from the New Notes Offering by the Finance Sub announced today, together with approximately $3.0 billion of Bristol Myers Squibb's cash on hand, to pay to Holders whose Notes are accepted in an Offer the Total Consideration or the Tender Consideration, as applicable, and any Accrued Coupon Payments.

All Holders whose Notes are accepted in an Offer will receive a cash payment equal to accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes to, but not including, the relevant Settlement Date (as defined below) (the “Accrued Coupon Payment”) in addition to their Total Consideration or Tender Consideration, as applicable.

Notes may be validly withdrawn at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on November 17, (such date and time with respect to an Offer, as the same may be extended with respect to such Offer), but not thereafter, unless extended with respect to any Offer. Holders should not tender any Notes that they do not wish to be accepted for purchase.

Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the Financing Condition and the other conditions of the Offers, the “Acceptance Priority Procedures” will operate concurrently, but separately, for the Pool 1 offers and the Pool 2 offers, in each case, as follows:

first, if the aggregate cash purchase price (excluding the applicable Accrued Coupon Payments) of all Pool 1 Notes or Pool 2 Notes, as applicable, validly tendered at or prior to the applicable Early Tender Deadline by Holders does not exceed the applicable maximum limit, then the Offeror will accept all such Notes. However, if the aggregate cash purchase price (excluding the applicable Accrued Coupon Payments) of all Pool 1 Notes or Pool 2 Notes, as applicable, validly tendered at or prior to the applicable Early Tender Deadline by Holders exceeds the applicable maximum limit, then the Offeror will (i) accept such Notes for purchase for cash, starting at the highest acceptance priority level (level 1) and, if there is more than one priority level, moving sequentially to each lower acceptance priority level (the lowest of which is level 6 in the case of the Pool 1 Offers and 9 in the case of the Pool 2 Offers), until the aggregate cash purchase price (excluding the applicable Accrued Coupon Payments) of such Notes equals the applicable maximum limit, (ii) prorate the series of such Notes with the lowest acceptance priority level accepted for purchase for cash and (iii) not accept for purchase for cash (x) any such Notes of a series with an acceptance priority level below the prorated series or (y) any Pool 1 Notes or Pool 2 Notes, as applicable, validly tendered after the applicable Early Tender Deadline; and

second, if the applicable maximum limit is not exceeded at the applicable Early Tender Deadline, the Offeror will repeat the steps described in the prior bullet with respect to all Pool 1 Notes or Pool 2 Notes, as applicable, validly tendered after the applicable Early Tender Deadline, but at or prior to the applicable Expiration Date, in order to determine the aggregate principal amount of such Notes that the Offeror will accept for purchase in the Pool 1 Offers and/or the Pool 2 Offers, as applicable.

All Pool 1 Notes, regardless of acceptance priority level, that are validly tendered at or prior to the applicable Early Tender Deadline will have priority over Pool 1 Notes validly tendered after the applicable Early Tender Deadline and at or prior to the applicable Expiration Date.

All Pool 2 Notes, regardless of acceptance priority level, that are validly tendered at or prior to the applicable Early Tender Deadline will have priority over Pool 2 Notes validly tendered after the applicable Early Tender Deadline and at or prior to the applicable Expiration Date.

Provided that the Financing Condition and the other conditions to the applicable Offer have been satisfied or waived by the Offeror by the applicable Early Tender Deadline, the Offeror may, but is not obligated to, elect to exercise its right (the “Early Settlement Right”), with respect to any Offer for which the conditions have been satisfied or waived, to settle all Notes validly tendered at or prior to the applicable Early Tender Deadline and accepted for purchase in such Offer (the “Early Settlement Date”). The Early Settlement Date will be determined at the Offeror’s option and is currently expected to occur on the third business day immediately following the Early Tender Deadline. If the Offeror elects to exercise its Early Settlement Right with respect to any Offer, the Offeror will settle all Notes validly tendered at or prior to the applicable Early Tender Deadline and accepted for purchase in such Offer on the Early Settlement Date. If the Offeror elects to exercise its Early Settlement Right with respect to any Offer, the Offeror will announce in a press release promptly after the applicable Early Tender Deadline that it is exercising its Early Settlement Right with respect to such Offer. On the Early Settlement Date, all Notes validly tendered at or prior to the applicable Early Tender Deadline and accepted for purchase in the Offer for which the Offeror has elected to exercise its Early Settlement Right will receive the applicable Total Consideration and Accrued Coupon Payment. The “Final Settlement Date,” if any, is the date on which the Offeror will settle all Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase and not previously settled on the Early Settlement Date. The Final Settlement Date is expected to be the second business day following the applicable Expiration Date, unless extended with respect to any Offer. Each of the Early Settlement Date and the Final Settlement Date is referred to as a “Settlement Date.”

Promptly after the Price Determination Date, the Offeror intends to issue a press release specifying, among other things, the Offer Yield and Total Consideration for each series of Notes, the aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered at or prior to the applicable Early Tender Deadline and, if applicable, accepted in each Offer and the proration factor (if any) applied to such validly tendered Notes with respect to each Offer.

The Offeror expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, subject to compliance with applicable law and regulations, not to purchase any Notes or to extend, amend and/or terminate its Offers and to amend or waive the Financing Condition and any of the other terms and conditions of any Offer. Holders are advised to read carefully the Offer to Purchase for full details of and information on the procedures for participating in the Offer, as applicable. If the Offeror terminates any Offer with respect to one or more series of Notes, it will give written notice thereof to the Tender and Information Agent (as defined below) and will make a public announcement thereof as promptly as practicable, and all Notes tendered pursuant to such terminated Offer will be returned promptly to the tendering Holders thereof. With effect from such termination, any Notes blocked in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) will be released. Holders are advised to check with any bank, securities broker or other intermediary through which they hold Notes as to when such intermediary would need to receive instructions from a beneficial owner in order for that holder to be able to participate, or withdraw their instruction to participate, in the Offers before the deadlines specified herein and in the Offer to Purchase. The deadlines set by any such intermediary and DTC for the submission and withdrawal of tender instructions will also be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified herein and in the Offer to Purchase.

The Offeror has retained Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC as dealer managers for the Offers. Questions regarding terms and conditions of the Offers should be directed to Citigroup Global Markets Inc. at (800) 558-3745 (toll-free) or (212) 723-6106 (collect) or Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. at (866) 627-0391 (toll-free) or (212) 250-2955 (collect) or Goldman Sachs & Co.

Global Bondholder Services Corporation will act as the tender agent and the information agent for the Offers (the “Tender and Information Agent”).

SLB Unveils Groundbreaking New Agentic AI Technology for the Energy Industry stocknewsapi
SLB
ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global energy technology company SLB (NYSE: SLB) today announced the launch of Tela™, an agentic AI assistant purpose-built to transform the upstream energy sector. Tela leverages agentic AI to not only automate processes but transform workflows and drive better business outcomes. Tela will be embedded in SLB’s portfolio of applications and platforms, and users will interact through a simple conversational interface. This approach enables agentic AI to act as a proactive collaborator — augmenting the workforce to achieve greater productivity and efficiency at scale.

Tela follows a common five-step agentic AI loop: observe, plan, generate, act and learn. This allows agents within Tela to proactively interact with their environment, adapt to new data, and continuously improve outcomes. Whether interpreting well logs, predicting drilling issues, or optimizing equipment performance, Tela agents can work in collaboration with humans or autonomously to deliver faster, smarter decisions.

“Technology like Tela marks a paradigm shift in how AI supports the energy industry, from subsurface to operations,” said Rakesh Jaggi, president, Digital and Integration, SLB. “Today, the industry faces a dual challenge: a leaner workforce and increased technical complexity, and Tela can address both. Tela doesn’t just automate tasks — it can understand goals, make decisions and take action. It’s the convergence of 100 years of domain science and cutting-edge digital technology, amplifying human ingenuity and redefining how work gets done.”

Specifically tailored for the energy industry and powered by SLB’s Lumi™ data and AI platform, Tela uses agentic AI — leveraging large language models (LLMs) and domain foundation models (DFMs) — to understand domain-specific contexts, generate insights and adapt workflows in real time based on observed outcomes. Lumi’s agentic framework allows customers to build and manage their own Tela agents, integrate partner-developed solutions, and tailor capabilities to their operational priorities.

“The real promise of agentic AI isn’t just faster workflows — it’s the ability to see the whole system, anticipate what’s next, and act with confidence, learning through the process and transforming workflows for better enterprise-level outcomes,” said Jaggi. “For oil and gas, that means leading the way in energy innovation, driving smarter decisions, and actively shaping the future of the industry.”

Tela is available across SLB’s platforms and software applications and deployable on cloud or on premises.

Tudor Gold Completes 2025 Exploration Program at Treaty Creek stocknewsapi
TDRRF
November 03, 2025 5:00 AM EST | Source: Tudor Gold Corp.
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 3, 2025) - Tudor Gold Corp. (TSXV: TUD) (FSE: H56) (the "Company" or "Tudor") is pleased to announce the completion of the 2025 exploration program (the "Program") at its 80%-owned Treaty Creek Project, located in the heart of the Golden Triangle of Northwestern British Columbia.

Results from the fifth and final drillhole from the Program are reported below.

Drilling Highlights:

Hole GS-25-191-W1 intersected a northeastward extension of the 300 Horizon Zone ("300H"), linking mineralized intercepts within the 300H and 300 North Zone ("300N") along two potential SC-1 Zone structural corridors. Highlights of the mineralized intercepts:

1.37 g/t gold, 4.09 g/t silver and 0.01% copper (1.43 g/t gold equivalent ("AuEQ")) over 23.80 meters (m), including:

1.63 g/t gold, 4.89 g/t silver and 0.02% copper (1.70 g/t AuEQ) over 10.70m, and:

1.76 g/t gold, 1.74 g/t silver and 0.01% copper (1.80 g/t AuEQ) over 6.80m

1.88 g/t gold, 1.71 g/t silver and 0.01% copper (1.91 g/t AuEQ) over 5.90m

See Table 1 below for select drill results of hole GS-25-191-W1 accompanied by a plan map and cross section.

GS-25-191-W1 was targeted to demonstrate continuity between high-grade mineralization on a North-South axis between drillholes GS-25-190 and GS-25-191, as well as a Southwest-Northeast axis connecting the 300H and 300N mineralized domains. This drill hole further confirms a high grade intercept observed in GS-25-191 (4.12 g/t gold, 16.48 g/t silver, and 0.01% copper (4.30 g/t AuEQ) over 8.90m), stepping out 52m to the south intercepting 1.63 g/t gold, 4.89 g/t silver, and 0.02% copper (1.70 g/t AuEQ) over 10.70m. Additionally, a separate high-grade SC-1 like structure was intercepted lower in the hole, stepping out 75m to the north of several drillholes from 2022, providing continuity between 300H and 300N mineralized domains intercepting 1.88 g/t gold, 1.71 g/t silver, and 0.01% copper (1.91 g/t AuEQ) over 5.90m. Furthermore, a third unexpected intercept of 1.76 g/t gold, 1.74 g/t silver and 0.01% copper (1.80 g.t AuEQ) over 6.8m provides continuity to a previously unidentified additional SC-1 structure.

2025 Exploration Program

The 2025 Treaty Creek Exploration Program was designed to target gaps between the 300N and 300H Zones, as well as the recently discovered high-grade SC-1 Zone. The potential for additional high-grade SC-1 Zone-like structures was also targeted, with results confirming and expanding several high-grade corridors within and surrounding the 300N and 300H Zones.

Overall, drilling was successful in intersecting mineralization within and between these zones to confirm the higher-grade gold structures within the bulk-tonnage Mineral Resource at Treaty Creek. Ongoing reinterpretation of historic data is leading to the identification of further high-grade structural zones throughout the Goldstorm Deposit and will be included in an upcoming Mineral Resource estimate for Treaty Creek. The resource update will, in addition to updating the overall Mineral Resource, also provide sensitivity analysis of the tonnes and grade above 2 g/t gold. This analysis will provide Tudor with the ability to assess the potential for a higher-grade underground mine with a smaller footprint to kickstart gold production.

2025-2026 Plans for Treaty Creek

Preparation of an updated Mineral Resource estimate for Treaty Creek is underway, which will include the additional drilling from 2024 and 2025 exploration programs comprising approximately 15,000 meters of drill data. The updated block model used to estimate the 2025 Mineral Resource will be comprised of 5mx5mx5m blocks rather than the 10mx10mx10m blocks used to estimate the 2024 Mineral Resource estimate. The smaller block size will provide better resolution of the higher-grade gold mineralization. The updated Mineral Resource estimate is targeted to be completed in the fourth quarter of this year.

On receipt of the permit for the development of an underground ramp (see news release dated August 14, 2025 in respect of the filing of the permit application) to access the high-grade gold SC-1 Zone and the other zones, Tudor plans to collar the portal, and commence the excavation of, the underground ramp. Subject to receipt of all necessary permits, Tudor plans to commence the underground excavation in the third quarter of 2026.

Tudor is assessing opportunities for increasing the gold Mineral Resources at Treaty Creek in 2026 by drilling other known zones on the property. In particular, Tudor plans to follow up on drill hole PS-23-10 at the Perfectstorm Zone, which intersected 1.23 g/t gold, 3.43 g/t silver and 0.01% copper over 102.15 meters, including 1.80 g/t gold, 5.76 g/t silver and 0.02 % copper over 42.5 meters. Tudor expects to firm up exploration plans for 2026 over the winter.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and that may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Resolute Holdings believes Fee-Related Earnings and Fee-Related Earnings per share are useful to investors in evaluating Resolute Holdings’ financial performance. Resolute Holdings believes that these non-GAAP financial measures depict the performance of the business and underlying economics attributable to Resolute Holdings common stockholders. Fee-Related Earnings and Fee-Related Earnings per share should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from Fee-Related Earnings and Fee-Related Earnings per share are significant components in understanding and assessing Resolute Holdings’ financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income, net income per share, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

CompoSecure Reports Strong 3Q25 Financial Results and Announces Business Combination with Husky Technologies stocknewsapi
CMPO
Strong operating performance delivered double-digit growth on both the top and bottom lineRaising full year 2025 guidance and issuing full year 2026 guidanceAnnounces business combination with Husky Technologies, creating a $7.4 billion best-in-class, diversified compounder SOMERSET, N.J., Nov. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CompoSecure, Inc. (NYSE: CMPO), a leader in metal payment cards, security, and authentication solutions, today announced its financial and operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025. Concurrently, CompoSecure announced a business combination with Husky Technologies Limited (“Husky”), a market leading manufacturer of engineered equipment and aftermarket services, in a transaction that will value the combined business at approximately $7.4 billion.

Jon Wilk, President and CEO of CompoSecure, noted: “CompoSecure’s third quarter performance exceeded expectations across all key metrics, driven by strong customer demand, expansion of existing programs, new client wins, and significant operating improvements. The CompoSecure Operating System continues to serve as the foundation of our execution, enabling double-digit organic growth, gross margin expansion, and enhanced profitability. Arculus delivered another net positive quarter and continues to gain traction with banks and fintechs that are launching innovative card programs and seeking integrated security solutions. With sales momentum building and operating efficiency improving, we are raising our 2025 outlook and introducing guidance for 2026.”

Dave Cote, CompoSecure’s Executive Chairman, stated: “A year after our investment in CompoSecure, we are beginning to see results from the implementation of the Operating System and the focus on developing a high-performance culture. These efforts, and the related investments we initiated last year, are beginning to pay off. The business is performing well, but we are still early, and believe more in the future opportunity for CompoSecure than when we first invested.”

“In addition to the strong quarter at CompoSecure, we are delighted to announce the business combination with Husky. This is a business Tom and I have long admired, and it hits all the key criteria we look for in every investment – it holds a great position in a good industry, significant technology differentiation, organic and inorganic growth possibilities, and margin expansion potential. We are excited to begin working with the Husky team and believe the combined business is uniquely well positioned to deliver for investors.”

Husky will be run as a standalone business alongside CompoSecure and will continue to operate under its current management team.

“We believe this combination will create value and unlock new opportunities for Husky and its stakeholders,” said Platinum Equity Co-President Louis Samson. “We have great respect for David Cote’s leadership, share his conviction in this opportunity and are excited to roll more than $1 billion of equity into the deal. We have partnered with Dave, Tom Knott, and the team at Resolute before and look forward to working with them to create value again.”

Platinum Equity, Cote, and Knott brought Vertiv to market together in 2019.

Samson and Platinum Equity Managing Director Delara Zarrabi are expected to join the CompoSecure Board of Directors.

Transaction Terms

Under the terms of the transaction, CompoSecure will combine with Husky for an enterprise value of approximately $5 billion, representing approximately 11.2x 2026E Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA of $445 million1. The combined entity2 will have a pro forma enterprise value of approximately $7.4 billion3, representing approximately 11.6x 2026E Pro Forma Net Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $635 million4.

The business combination is being funded through a private placement of approximately $2.0 billion and equity rollover of approximately $1.0 billion from Platinum Equity. Pro forma net LTM leverage is expected to be approximately 3.5x5 with the ability to naturally de-lever approximately 0.8x per year. The Husky subsidiary will enter into a management agreement with Resolute Holdings on substantially similar terms as the CompoSecure Management Agreement.

The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval. The transaction is expected to be 20%+ accretive to adjusted diluted earnings per share in the first full year post-closing.

Operating Results – Q3 2025 Financial Highlights (vs. Q3 2024)

Non-GAAP Net Sales increased 13% to $120.9 million, during the third quarter of 2025 compared to $107.1 million during the third quarter of 2024, driven by strong domestic demand and new program wins across both traditional banks and fintechs.Non-GAAP Gross Profit increased to $71.3 million or 59.0% gross margin, compared to $55.4 million, or 51.7% gross margin, in the third quarter of 2024. The gross margin expansion reflects continued efficiency gains driven by the CompoSecure Operating System.GAAP Net Loss was ($174.7) million compared to GAAP net loss of ($85.5) million in the year-ago period. The net loss was driven by non-cash items relating to the revaluation of warrant and earnout liabilities.GAAP Earnings Per Share attributable to Class A common shareholders was ($1.58) (Basic) and ($1.58) (Diluted) compared to ($1.10) (Basic) and ($1.10) (Diluted) for the year-ago period. Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income was $34.0 million compared to $24.3 million in the year-ago period.Non-GAAP Adjusted Earnings Per Share was $0.31 (Basic) and $0.29 (Diluted) compared to $0.27 (Basic) and $0.23 (Diluted) in the year-ago period. Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA increased 30% to $47.7 million compared to $36.6 million in the year-ago period, due primarily to strong organic sales growth and continued margin expansion. _________________________

The Company's liquidity needs are expected to be met with funding from the operations of CompoSecure Holdings.Non-GAAP Financial Condition: At September 30, 2025, CompoSecure had $265.3 million of cash and short term investments, and $190.0 million of total debt for total net cash of $75.3 million. This compares to cash and cash equivalents of $52.7 million and total debt of $330.0 million at September 30, 2024 for total net debt of $277.3 million.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of management. Although CompoSecure believes that its plans, intentions, and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, CompoSecure cannot assure you that it will achieve or realize these plans, intentions, or expectations. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning CompoSecure’s possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events, results of operations, demand, the implementation of the CompoSecure Operating System and guidance for 2025 and 2026 are forward-looking statements. In some instances, these statements may be preceded by, followed by, or include the words “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “outlook” “forecasts,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “plans,” “scheduled,” “anticipates” or “intends” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. You should not put undue reliance on these statements which speak only as of the date hereof. You should understand that the following important factors, among others, could affect CompoSecure’s future results and could cause those results or other outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in CompoSecure’s forward-looking statements: the ability of CompoSecure to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers, compete within its industry and retain its key employees; the possibility that CompoSecure may be adversely impacted by other global economic, business, competitive and/or other factors, including tariffs; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against CompoSecure or others; future exchange and interest rates; changes in our accounting and/or financial presentation; and other risks and uncertainties, including those under “Risk Factors” in filings that have been made or will be made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. CompoSecure undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Due to the spin-off of Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. and the resulting shift to equity method accounting under GAAP beginning February 28, 2025, CompoSecure is presenting a broader set of Non-GAAP measures, including an Adjusted Statement of Operations (Unaudited), an Adjusted Balance Sheet (Unaudited) to provide investors with financial information that we believe allows for greater comparability with our historical financial presentation and better represents the underlying performance of the standalone business across reporting periods. This press release also includes certain Non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and that may be different from Non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. CompoSecure believes Non-GAAP Net Sales, Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS (Basic and Diluted), Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, Non-GAAP Cash, Non-GAAP Net Debt, Non-GAAP Net Debt Leverage Ratio and Free Cash Flow, and related measures are useful to investors in evaluating CompoSecure’s financial performance. Specifically, we believe EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS (Basic and Diluted) Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, and Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA Margin provide valuable insight into operational efficiency independent of capital structure and tax environment; Non-GAAP Net Sales, Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, Non-GAAP Cash, Non-GAAP Net Debt, Non-GAAP Net Debt Leverage Ratio and Free Cash Flow offer investors a clearer view of ongoing profitability by excluding non-recurring and non-operational items; and related measures provide greater comparability with CompoSecure’s historical results, following the change in accounting presentation required as a result of the spin-off of Resolute Holdings. CompoSecure uses these Non-GAAP measures internally to establish forecasts, budgets and operational goals to manage and monitor its business, as well as evaluate its underlying historical performance and/or measure incentive compensation. We believe that these Non-GAAP financial measures depict the true performance of the business by encompassing only relevant and controllable events, enabling CompoSecure to evaluate and plan more effectively for the future. These Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from these measures are significant components in understanding and assessing CompoSecure’s financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of CompoSecure’s liquidity. These Non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled Non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Additionally, CompoSecure’s debt agreements contain covenants based on variations of these measures for purposes of determining debt covenant compliance. CompoSecure believes that investors should have access to the same set of tools that its management uses in analyzing operating results. Please refer to the tables below for the reconciliation of GAAP measures to these Non-GAAP measures. Due to the forward-looking nature of the financial guidance included above, the charges excluded from the forward-looking Non-GAAP financial measures including Non-GAAP Net Sales, Non-GAAP Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA (including year-over-year growth and multiples), including with respect to depreciation, amortization, interest, and taxes that would be required to reconcile the Non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures are inherently uncertain or difficult to predict, so it is not feasible to provide accurate forecasted Non-GAAP reconciliations without unreasonable effort. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable GAAP measures is included, and no reconciliation of the forward-looking Non-GAAP financial measures is included.

(CSE: LFG) (FSE: 8R20) (OTCQB: LFGMF) (the "Company") is pleased to announce the Company has closed the first tranche (the "First Tranche") of the previously announced private placement of senior secured convertible debentures (the "Convertible Debentures") and common share purchase warrants (the "Warrants") with Helena Global Investment Opportunities 1 Ltd. ("Helena"). The Company issued $3,336,364 of principal amount of Convertible Debentures and 834,091 Warrants in the First Tranche.

The Company is also pleased to announce that it and Helena have amended the subscription agreement (the "Subscription Agreement") for the Convertible Debenture financing such that the minimum conversion price for the Convertible Debentures has been raised from $0.05 to $0.30.

The Convertible Debentures have a one-year term from the date hereof (the "Term"). The Convertible Debentures are convertible into common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") at Helena's option at anytime during the Term at a conversion price per Common Share equal to 100% of the closing price of the Common Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") on the trading day immediately preceding the submission of a conversion notice, subject to a minimum price equal to $0.30. The Convertible Debentures bear interest at a rate of 17.5% per annum, with interest for the Term paid by the Company in cash on closing of the First Tranche. The Convertible Debentures are secured pursuant to the terms of a security agreement (the "Security Agreement") securing all Bitcoin presently owned by the Company, as well as the Purchased Bitcoin (as defined herein) subsequently acquired. The Company has also paid to Helena a facilitation fee equal to $100,000 on the closing of the First Tranche.

Each Warrant issued in the First Tranche entitles Helena to purchase one Common Share until October 31, 2028 at an exercise price of $0.637.

The conversion of Convertible Debentures by Helena, the exercise of any Warrants and the subscription for any further Convertible Debentures, are restricted if such subscription, conversion or exercise would cause Helena, together with any affiliate thereof, to beneficially own in excess of 9.9% of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. In no event shall any issuance by the Company of Convertible Debentures, Warrants or Common Shares underlying either the Convertible Debentures or Warrants be effective or enforceable if such issuance would result in Helena and/or any person acting on combination or concert with Helena becoming a new Control Person (as such term is defined in the policies of the CSE) or otherwise holding enough Common Shares to Materially Affect Control (as such term is defined in the policies of the CSE) of the Company, without first obtaining approval of the holders of Common Shares in accordance with the policies of the CSE or any other exchange upon which the Common Shares were listed or trading.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company is required to use 80% of the net proceeds from each Tranche for the purchase of Bitcoin (the "Purchased Bitcoin") and the remaining 20% of the net proceeds from each Tranche may be used for general working capital purposes. The Purchased Bitcoin, together with the Bitcoin currently owned by the Company, will be held in a custodial account and secured pursuant to the Security Agreement.

Joseph Gunnar & Co., LLC acted as the sole placement agent in connection with the Private Placement.

Helena is an "accredited investor" as such term is defined in National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions. All securities issued in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from each closing date in accordance with applicable securities legislation.

Ethereum momentum slows as BitMine becomes main buyer cryptonews
ETH
Matrixport predicts that the Ethereum price may continue to consolidate as ETH ETFs lose steam and BitMine continues to be its main consistent buyer.

Summary

Institutional demand for Ethereum has weakened in recent weeks, with BitMine emerging as the only major buyer amid persistent ETF outflows and declining market interest.
Ethereum’s price continues to face bearish pressure below the $3,800 level, though oversold indicators suggest a potential short-term rebound if support near $3,700 holds.

According to a recent report by Matrixport, institutional demand for ETH has gone down in the past month. In fact, the on-chain analysis platform identified BitMine as the “only consistent buyer” of the token. In addition, the performance of ETH ETFs have remained subdued within October.

Historical data shows that ETH (ETH)-backed exchange traded funds recorded strong net inflows during July and August, reaching as much as $5.2 billion and $3.4 billion within those respective months. However, the flow of capital began to decline some time around September, when it fell to just $300 million.

Although October saw the amount of inflows doubling to $600 million, it still was not enough to catapult it further. The platform noted that the month saw “virtually no follow-through” since it fell from the billions.

https://twitter.com/Matrixport_EN/status/1985192699763601852

Data from SoSo Value indicates that the trend of outflows for ETH ETFs continues to persist, as the combined performance of nine ETH ETFs on the market have generated $98.2 million outflows in daily net inflows on Oct. 31. However, this trend is not unique to ETH as Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs have also experience a wave of outflows, reaching $191.6 million in total last week.

Matrixport analysts note that Ethereum could be poised for further consolidation and even a deeper correction may be possible. Having fallen off the $4,000 mark just last week, the token has yet to recover from the drop. The platform seems to imply that BitMine’s buying power is one of the only factors keeping the asset afloat in terms of institutional demand, but not for long.

“BitMine’s NAV is only marginally above issuance levels, meaning the firm can still dilute shareholders and extract incremental capital, but that dynamic appears to be running on borrowed time,” said Matrixport analysts.

Within the past 30 days, the Tom Lee-led Ethereum treasury firm has added a total of 662,169 ETH to its holdings, bringing the total amount to 3.1 million ETH which represents nearly 3% of the ETH total supply. The company’s latest purchase took place on Oct. 27, when it bought 77,055 ETH or equal to $285 million based on current market prices.

With Ethereum’s new Fusaka upgrade coming in December 3, 2025, the token price could see renewed interest and buying activity. However, nothing is guaranteed.

Ethereum price analysis
Ethereum price is currently trading at around $3,714, which is below the 30-day period moving average that stands at $3,847. This signals ongoing bearish momentum as ETH struggles to reclaim key resistance levels, falling deeper below the $3,800 mark after failing to climb back up to $4,000.

The consistent pattern of lower highs and lower lows since mid-October reinforces the notion that sellers remain in control. The MA also acts as dynamic resistance, repeatedly rejecting upward attempts throughout the last few trading sessions.

At press time, the Relative Strength Index currently sits at 26.45 indicating that Ethereum has entered oversold territory. This suggests that selling pressure might be overextended in the short term, and a short-lived bounce or consolidation could follow.

However, the RSI’s inability to hold above the neutral 50 zone over the past weeks shows that bullish momentum has remained weak, with each recovery met by renewed selling. If the RSI remains suppressed below 40, it could confirm a continuation of the bearish trend.

Looking ahead, the $3,700 to $3,680 range forms an immediate support zone. A decisive break below this area could trigger further downside that could drag Ethereum down to the $3,500 psychological level.

Though, if buyers manage to defend this support and push ETH back above the 30-MA line near $3,850, a potential short-term reversal could form, targeting the $3,950 to $4,000 resistance area.

At the moment, Ethereum remains in a corrective phase led by short-term bearish sentiment. It appears to be headed for a breakdown below the $3,700 level or it could potentially bounce back to $3,850. Although momentum indicators still lean towards bearish, oversold signals hint that volatility could increase as buyers look for value entry points.

DASH Hits 3-Year High as Analysts See Potential Surge Above $100 cryptonews
DASH
Dash (DASH) has surged over 65% this week, hitting a three-year high after its listing on the Aster decentralized exchange.Analysts see further upside, setting price targets over $100, supported by strong bullish sentiment and renewed privacy coin interest.The broader privacy coin sector is up 186.8% in 2025, with DASH joining Zcash and others as key leaders of the year’s top-performing category.Dash (DASH), a privacy-focused cryptocurrency, has surged more than 65% over the past week, reaching a three-year high yesterday.

As investor interest in privacy coins grows, analysts have issued bullish price targets for DASH, with many projecting further upside potential above $100.

Why Is DASH’s Price Surging?According to BeInCrypto Markets data, DASH, the fourth-largest privacy coin by market capitalization, has maintained an upward trend over the past month despite broader market challenges. During this period, the token’s value has increased by approximately 190%.

On November 2, DASH reached $96.9, marking its highest level since May 2022. The move followed DASH’s listing on Aster, a decentralized perpetual exchange. The platform launched DASH perpetual trading with up to 5x leverage.

Typically, a new exchange listing boosts a token’s visibility and liquidity, often driving short-term price gains and increased trading activity. Nonetheless, DASH experienced a modest correction soon after.

Dash (DASH) Price Performance. Source: BeInCrypto MarketsAt the time of writing, the altcoin was trading at $84.9, representing a nearly 15% increase over the past 24 hours. The rise has landed DASH among the top daily gainers on CoinGecko.

DASH Price Prediction: Why Analysts Think The Coin Can Reach $100 Notably, community sentiment toward DASH remains positive, with 82% of traders expressing a bullish outlook on the token. This optimism is also reflected in price forecasts, as many traders expect DASH to surpass the $100 level.

Analysts had earlier pointed to $71.64 as a key resistance level for DASH. Since the token has already crossed this threshold, it could clear the way for a potential continuation toward the next psychological targets around $100 and beyond.

“A daily close above $71.64 can start a big breakout. First goal around $100, next goal near $130,” an analyst projected.

The real breakout signal is a clean daily close above $71.64. That's the that unlocks the Expansion phase to three digits.

Another analyst projects DASH to trade between $100 and $140 in the near term, noting that sustained interest in privacy-focused cryptocurrencies could push the token as high as $250.

“DASH has shown that privacy doesn’t end with ZCASH. The month started with a 100% move on the altcoin. They’re pumping it on expectations similar to what happened with ZEC,” ACXtrades added.

Meanwhile, DASH’s rally is part of a broader momentum in privacy-focused cryptocurrencies. Privacy coins have been the best-performing sector in the cryptocurrency market in 2025.

According to the latest data from Artemis, the sector has gained 186.8% this year, even outpacing Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Crypto Market Sector Performance. Source: ArtemisThis momentum has been led by major tokens, such as Zcash (ZEC), which recently crossed the $400 price level before falling back. While the outlook for privacy coins remains strong, it remains to be seen whether this rally will continue or fade away like other short-lived crypto narratives.

Solana Price Weakens as Market Turns Bearish—Will the $165 Zone Trigger a Rebound? cryptonews
SOL
Following a bearish monthly close, sellers have tightened their grip on the crypto markets. Bitcoin price slipped below $107,500, breaching a crucial support level near $108,000, while Solana price plunged to $176, losing its strong October base between $178 and $180. The weak start to November has left traders cautious, as the SOL price dropped over 8% amid low trading volume and fading bullish momentum.

The total crypto market capitalization also declined as traders booked profits after the recent rally. With this pullback, Solana has officially entered a weekly downtrend, and if selling pressure persists, the token could soon revisit its key demand zone near $165. This zone has historically served as a strong rebound area, potentially halting further downside and fueling a fresh move toward the $200 resistance in the coming sessions.

What’s Next for the Solana (SOL) Price Rally?Solana’s price action has entered a decisive phase as the token consolidates near $187 following a sharp pullback from recent highs. The chart reveals a clear structure of lower highs, indicating growing bearish momentum after repeated rejections around $240. With the recent breakdown below $180, SOL is testing crucial mid-range support levels, leaving traders watchful of a potential deeper correction. The broader market sentiment appears cautious, suggesting volatility could intensify if Solana fails to reclaim the $200 resistance soon.

The chart shared by a popular analyst, Ali, illustrates Solana’s multi-month range between $100 and $260, highlighting a possible downward trajectory if the $158–$165 support fails to hold. The dotted projections suggest a potential short-term rebound toward $200 before a continuation of the downtrend, possibly dragging SOL toward the $130–$100 zone by early 2026. The setup implies a lower-high structure consistent with bearish continuation, unless buyers manage to break above $200 decisively—an outcome that could re-establish bullish strength and challenge the upper resistance near $240.

Wrapping It Up!Traders remain cautious amid broader crypto market weakness, as Bitcoin’s decline below $108,000 continues to weigh on altcoins. A rebound in BTC above $110,000 could provide a much-needed lift to Solana’s recovery and restore confidence among bulls. Until then, SOL may continue consolidating within a narrow range, awaiting a clear breakout signal.

Solana’s short-term outlook remains bearish, but its long-term fundamentals continue to offer hope for a rebound. The $165 demand zone will be critical in determining the next major move—holding above it could reignite buying pressure and set the stage for a retest of $200. However, if market sentiment worsens and BTC remains weak, SOL could face further downside before a sustainable recovery emerges.

XRP Drops Critically, $2 at Risk? cryptonews
XRP
Mon, 3/11/2025 - 8:20

XRP dropped rapidly, going through the ascending trendline and raising the risk of losing the $2 mark sooner than anticipated.

After breaking below its short-term ascending trendline, Ripple’s XRP has entered a risky phase. This move suggests renewed bearish control and could push the asset toward the crucial $2.00 support, or even lower.

XRP tumbles rapidlyAs of press time, XRP is trading close to $2.40, down nearly 5% for the day. This confirms that buyers are losing steam and continues a run of rejections from the 200-day moving average. The recent trendline break renders invalid the brittle recovery pattern that developed following the crash in October.

XRP/USDT Chart by TradingViewWithout this structure, XRP’s chart appears more vulnerable now, with no solid support areas between the current level and $2.00. A bleak picture is painted by the moving averages. Convergence between the 100-day (blue) and 200-day (black) lines suggests a potential death cross formation — a bearish signal that, if verified, could quicken downside pressure.

HOT Stories

No volume presentThere is little sign of a short-term recovery as the RSI close to 41 also shows growing weakness. Likewise, the volume is muted. It appears that bulls are stepping aside rather than defending important levels because there has not been any discernible spike in trading activity despite the recent decline.

You Might Also Like

If selling pressure increases over the next few days, XRP may easily drop to $2.10-$2.00, where psychological support may provide a brief reprieve. However, there are not any historical buying zones beyond that. XRP will continue to follow the path of least resistance downward unless it is able to recover and hold above $2.55.

A steeper sell-off is possible due to the asset’s current structure, particularly if Bitcoin volatility increases or market sentiment declines. XRP’s inability to maintain its rising trendline, in summary, signifies a critical breakdown; if momentum does not change soon, the $2 mark may be the next stop in this developing correction.

Short-Term Holders Could Sink XRP Price — Unless It Reclaims One Critical Level cryptonews
XRP
XRP faces selling pressure as a hidden bearish divergence confirms the broader downtrend.High NUPL values show holders are still in profit, prompting more short-term profit-taking.A daily close above $2.64 could reverse momentum and spark a potential rebound.XRP’s start on the first Monday of November hasn’t inspired confidence. The token has dropped 3% in the past 24 hours and is now down 19.1% over the past 30 days. This clearly marks a period of downtrend for the XRP price.

The broader setup remains weak, and the charts suggest more downside, unless buyers step in soon.

Between October 13 and November 2, XRP’s price made a lower high, while the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which tracks buying and selling strength, formed a higher high. This is known as a hidden bearish divergence, a setup that often signals the continuation of an existing downtrend.

Simply put, while momentum appears to rise, sellers are still in control. For XRP, the only way to invalidate this bearish setup is a daily close above $2.64, which could open a move on the upside.

Price Shows Bearishness: TradingViewUntil then, the market remains tilted toward sellers.

Profit-Taking and Short-Term Selling Add PressureOn-chain data supports this weakness. The Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL), which measures investor profit levels across the network, stands at 0.428, almost identical to the local peak of 0.425 reached on October 20. At that time, XRP dropped from $2.50 to $2.36, a 5.6% correction in just two days.

Holders Are Still Profitable: GlassnodeHigh NUPL values often mean investors still hold profits, so many may sell to secure gains.

That’s exactly what’s happening. The HODL Waves metric, which tracks how long investors hold coins, shows that wallets holding XRP for 1 day to 1 week have cut their supply share from 2.28% to 1.17% in just two weeks. That’s a near 50% drop in reserves.

Short-Term Holders Selling More Aggressively: GlassnodeThese short-term traders are actively selling into rallies, adding to the downward pressure.

Key XRP Price Levels To Watch as Selling IntensifiesAs short-term holders keep offloading, XRP’s key support at $2.31 is under pressure. If this level fails, the token could slip toward $2.18, confirming further downside. Note that $2.31 is just 4.91% away from the current price level, still within the NUPL-driven drop zone, as discussed earlier.

XRP Price Analysis: TradingViewHowever, holding above $2.31 could stabilize prices long enough to test the $2.64 ceiling again. Crossing that level would invalidate the bearish divergence and signal the start of a possible rebound.

That would shift momentum back to buyers and align XRP price movement with RSI strength — an early sign of trend recovery.

Dogecoin Must Defend This Level To Avoid A $0.07 Meltdown, On-Chain Data Shows cryptonews
DOGE
A stark line in the sand has emerged for Dogecoin. Market analyst Ali Martinez (X: @ali_charts) argues that the meme-coin’s near-term trajectory is binary around the $0.18 handle, pairing a channel-based price map with an on-chain URPD readout that concentrates risk directly below. His warning is unambiguous: “Dogecoin fate could hinge on $0.18. If it fails, $0.07 might be next.”

Dogecoin Needs To Bounce Now
Martinez published a one-day chart on November 1 depicting DOGE oscillating inside an ascending channel and presently testing its lower boundary. The chart print shows Binance’s perpetual pair near $0.187 at the time of capture, with a dotted path that either springs from this “buy-the-dip” zone toward the channel’s midline near $0.26 and ultimately the upper rail around $0.33, or, if the support snaps, ejects into a materially lower range.

He summarized the bullish path succinctly in a separate post attached to the same chart: “$0.18 looks like a strong buy-the-dip zone for Dogecoin before a potential run toward $0.26 or $0.33.” Pressed by a user on what had changed, Martinez replied: “Nothing has changed. On both posts everything depends on the $0.18 support level.”

On-Chain Data Confirms Critical Situation
The technical map is reinforced by on-chain positioning. Martinez shared a Glassnode UTXO Realized Price Distribution (URPD) for DOGE partitioned by the all-time-high epoch. URPD bins supply by the last on-chain transaction price, highlighting cost-basis clusters that often function as support and resistance when those cohorts are confronted with drawdowns or break-evens.

The histogram Martinez posted features a conspicuous bulge around $0.073, labeled at 28,278,554,566.513 DOGE (18.66%), and a secondary local node centered near $0.17741885, labeled at 5,040,878,150.654 DOGE (3.33%). Moreover, the chart exposes a heavy 36+ billion DOGE cluster across $0.18–$0.21 — a critical zone that price has already broken below, adding pressure to the downside.

Dogecoin URPD | Source: X @ali_charts
The implication is straightforward: there is a visible pocket of realized-price liquidity at roughly $0.18 that might catch price on first test; but should that shelf fail, the next dense cohort sits far lower, near seven cents, where nearly a fifth of supply last changed hands.

This pairing of a technical threshold with an on-chain vacuum is what underpins Martinez’s either-or framing. The channel study delineates $0.18 as structural support on the daily timeframe; the URPD shows why the downside air pocket could be deep if sellers force capitulation below that level.

Conversely, a defense of $0.18 would align with his mapped rebound toward the channel’s median near $0.26, with stretch potential to the upper boundary around $0.33 if momentum persists. In Martinez’s words, “everything depends on the $0.18 support level.”

At press time, DOGE traded at $0.173.

Expert: Spot Ripple (XRP) ETFs Could Debut Within 2 Weeks cryptonews
XRP
Analysts predict spot XRP ETFs could spark a price breakout, with whales buying over $340M in XRP recently.

The cryptocurrency industry is preparing for a major milestone as the first spot XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are expected to debut within the next two weeks.

Experts believe that the end of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) litigation against Ripple has removed a major barrier for the firm, clearing the path for approvals.

XRP ETF Launch Signals Shift in SEC’s Crypto Stance
Nate Geraci, president of NovaDius Wealth Management, shared via X that he anticipates the launch of these investment products soon. “Sometime in next two weeks, I expect launch of first spot XRP ETFs,” he wrote.

The analyst described the upcoming development as a shift in regulatory tone, calling it the “final nail in the coffin of previous anti-crypto regulators.” He highlighted how the SEC had maintained litigation against Ripple for five years that ended only three months ago, emphasizing that they have come a long way.

The case began in December 2020 when the financial watchdog accused Ripple of conducting an unregistered securities offering through XRP sales, and officially ended in August 2025 when both parties filed a joint dismissal of their appeals.

Canary Capital is reportedly leading the charge, with its spot XRP ETF targeting a launch date around November 13. If confirmed, this would mark the first time the cryptocurrency is offered through a regulated investment vehicle in the United States, allowing investors to gain exposure to it without directly holding it.

The extended U.S. government shutdown had also caused delays at the SEC, preventing it from meeting key deadlines for several pending spot XRP ETF approvals. Grayscale’s proposal was initially set for review on October 17 before the process was put on hold. The situation also impacted other applicants, including 21Shares, Bitwise, Canary Capital, CoinShares, and WisdomTree.

Approvals Could Trigger Price Breakout
Analysts believe the launch of spot XRP ETFs will have a massive impact on the token’s price. One explained how XRP will be seen as the token with the strongest use case and the most potential, especially for fast and low-cost global payments. For context, spot Bitcoin ETFs reached one hundred billion dollars in assets, and some analysts believe XRP could easily match that level. Whales have already bought over $340 million XRP in the past month, including a single $1 billion purchase.

At the same time, trading on the XRP Ledger’s decentralized exchange is expected to grow in the coming weeks, which could reduce the amount of the token available on centralized exchanges. This combination of rising demand and shrinking supply is creating what experts are calling XRP’s breakout moment, with price targets reaching $5 or more.

Crypto Market Slips as Bitcoin, Altcoins Extend Weekly Losses Amid Weak Sentiment cryptonews
BTC
Major cryptocurrencies began the week in decline, continuing a lackluster streak that marked October as the market’s worst month since 2015. Bitcoin (BTC) hovered near $106,000 in early Monday trading after briefly reclaiming $110,000 last week. Altcoins followed suit, with Dogecoin (DOGE) and Cardano (ADA) plunging around 5%, while Solana (SOL), BNB, and Ethereum (ETH) saw losses of up to 4%. Tron (TRX) remained flat over the same period.

The sell-off lacked a clear catalyst, suggesting profit-taking after the previous week’s gains. Analysts pointed to fading confidence and weak fundamentals as factors dragging sentiment lower. FxPro’s chief market analyst, Alex Kuptsikevich, noted Bitcoin’s “repeated failure to hold above $113,000” as a sign of waning momentum. Despite this, the $3.5 trillion total market cap level continues to attract dip-buyers, hinting at potential support.

While traders hope for a turnaround in the new month, optimism around the typically bullish “Uptober” trend quickly faded after a brief early-month rally. Data from Glassnode shows long-term Bitcoin holders have significantly increased selling activity, tripling sales since June as investors lock in profits from earlier buys near $93,000. Nonetheless, spot trading volumes topped $300 billion in October, the highest in a year, signaling robust two-way liquidity.

Meanwhile, gold prices steadied around $4,000 per ounce after China’s move to end tax rebates for select gold retailers, a policy shift that could curb demand in one of the largest bullion markets. Despite a short-term pullback, gold remains up over 50% year-to-date, underscoring persistent demand for safe-haven assets. Analysts also observed a strengthening correlation between Bitcoin and gold, both reacting to global monetary shifts and geopolitical tensions.

As markets await further cues from the Federal Reserve’s policy direction, investors continue to balance between risk appetite and safety, shaping the uncertain path ahead for both crypto and commodities.

Crypto Liquidation Tsunami: Bitcoin and Ethereum Lead $400M Washout? cryptonews
BTC ETH
Nothing wakes up traders like red across every chart. Today, the crypto market saw its total capitalization plunge 3.2% to $3.6 trillion. This is with an eye-watering $400 million in crypto liquidations in 24 hours. Bitcoin led the charge downwards, dipping below $107,500 and forcing out over 162,000 long traders, while Ethereum posted almost as heavy losses. Savvy traders turned to stablecoins and Bitcoin for safety.

Wondering what caused the crypto market to go down? As always in crypto, there’s never just one reason. 

Top Reasons Behind the LiquidationsWhales and Technicals Fuel the CascadesLarge holders didn’t hesitate. One whale alone moved 13,000 BTC worth $1.48 billion onto exchanges. Then, futures open interest on Ethereum sank by 5.2%. It became a classic liquidation spiral, where falling prices triggered stop losses and even more selling. 

Successively, the market cap broke critical support at $3.74 trillion and the 30-day simple moving average. This is while the RSI at 40.88 still left room for more selling, barely above truly oversold.

Altcoins Face the Brunt of LiquidationAltcoins fared the worst, which is evident in the crypto liquidations heatmap by CoinGlass. The entire top 50 fell 4% in a day, Bitcoin’s dominance spiked to 60%, and popular tokens like Uniswap and DOGE plunged even further. Ethereum liquidations totaled $112.8 million, just outpacing Bitcoin’s $96.9 million. Solana, ASTER, and DOGE joined the rout, while fear took over social media timelines.

Fed’s Dovish Pause Meets Market FearJust days after the Federal Reserve’s October rate hike, Powell walked back hopes for another December cut. That spurred the dollar higher, hitting crypto hard. Markets value lower rates and easier money, so any hint of tighter policy scares off risk-takers fast. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent also signaled limited room for more easing. The odds of another cut dropped to 69%, and the dominoes fell fast in crypto trading rooms.

ETF Outflows Compound WeaknessMeanwhile, U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs saw $1.15 billion yanked out last week, especially from industry leaders like BlackRock, ARK Invest, and Fidelity. That kind of pullback signals big investors stepping aside, and warns retail traders about potential further downside. When BTC lost support under $110,000, it was clear the pros were bracing for the worst.

What Do Analysts Have to Say?“Over $231.7 million in long positions has vanished in 4 hours. Even with US stock futures opening strong, crypto is just free-falling.”

–Cas Abbé

FAQsWhat triggered the latest crypto liquidations?

It was the perfect storm: Fed policy signals, huge ETF withdrawals, and whale moves sparked cascading liquidations as buyers vanished and prices plummeted.

Which tokens were hit hardest?

Ethereum and Bitcoin topped the liquidation charts, but Uniswap and DOGE lost the most in percentage terms, showing traders avoided riskier altcoin bets.

Is more downside possible from here?

If Bitcoin breaks below $106,000, analysts say the market could face another $6 billion in forced liquidations. Until then, fear rules the sentiment.

Balancer hit by suspected $70M exploit as staked Ether tokens sent to new wallet cryptonews
BAL ETH
25 minutes ago

Balancer may have suffered a $70 million DeFi exploit, as millions in staked Ether were transferred to a new wallet, reigniting concerns over protocol security.

284

Decentralized exchange (DEX) and automated market maker (AMM) Balancer may have suffered an exploit, as about $70 million worth of digital assets was transferred to a freshly created wallet.

Onchain data shows that the decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol saw $70.9 million worth of liquid staked Ether (ETH) tokens transferred to a fresh wallet across three transactions, according to Etherscan logs.

The transfers included 6,850 StakeWise Staked ETH (OSETH), 6,590 Wrapped Ether (WETH) and 4,260 Lido wstETH (wSTETH), crypto intelligence platform Nansen said in a Monday X post.

While Balancer has yet to confirm the exploit, the millions flowing into the fresh cryptocurrency wallet signal that the transfers may have occurred due to a security breach.

Source: NansenBlockchain security firm Cyvers estimated that up to $84 million in suspicious transactions across multiple chains related to Balancer was involved, it wrote in a Monday X post.

Two months ago, Balancer suffered a domain name system (DNS) attack on its front end website, the protocol announced on Sept. 20. Hackers redirected the website’s users to a phishing website associated with malicious smart contracts aiming to steal user funds.

About $238,000 worth of digital assets were stolen during the phishing attack, according to blockchain sleuth ZachXBT.

Source: ZachXBTEarlier in August, Balancer also suffered an almost $1 million stalecoin exploit, just a week after the protocol disclosed a “critical vulnerability” related to some of its liquidity pools.

Balancer Faces $70.9 Million Exploit in Latest DeFi Security Breach cryptonews
BAL
Balancer, a leading decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol with more than $750 million in total value locked (TVL), has reportedly suffered another major security breach. On-chain data reveals that approximately $70.9 million worth of digital assets were drained from the platform, with the attack primarily targeting Balancer’s Version 2 (V2) protocol.

According to blockchain data analyzed by CoinDesk, the stolen funds include roughly 6,850 osETH, 6,590 WETH, and 4,260 wstETH. The exploiter’s wallet has already begun consolidating assets, sparking fears of potential laundering through decentralized mixers or cross-chain bridges — a common tactic used in previous crypto exploits to obscure transaction trails.

Following the incident, Balancer’s native token, BAL, dropped by over 5% from its recent weekly peak, according to CoinGecko data. The Balancer team has yet to release an official statement addressing the breach, leaving users and investors on edge.

This marks the third significant exploit in Balancer’s history, following earlier security incidents in 2021 and 2023 that resulted in multimillion-dollar losses. The recurrence of such breaches raises serious questions about DeFi security and the challenges of maintaining protocol integrity in an increasingly sophisticated threat landscape.

DeFi platforms like Balancer are often targeted due to their complex smart contracts and large liquidity pools, making them prime opportunities for attackers. The recent exploit underscores the urgent need for stronger risk management, continuous auditing, and better security mechanisms across the DeFi ecosystem to protect investors and maintain trust in decentralized financial systems.

As investigations continue, the crypto community is watching closely to see how Balancer responds — and whether lessons from past incidents will finally lead to more resilient security measures.

Bitcoin Risks Losing 80% of Its Value If Oldest Crypto Market Theory Comes True cryptonews
BTC
Mon, 3/11/2025 - 9:03

Bitcoin may seem established at $110,000, but if its historic four-year-cycle pattern repeats, the market could retrace up to 80% before the next halving rebound.

Bitcoin is trading near $110,000, but its long-term profit-and-loss signal is showing the same curve alignment that preceded each of the three major sell-offs in its history. The 365-day moving average of the PnL Index, tracked by CryptoQuant, hit similar numbers in 2013, 2017 and 2021, and each time, there was a drop of about 75-80% the following year.

During those periods, the market value fell from $1,100 to $200, then from $19,700 to $3,200, and later from $69,000 to $15,500. Each reset lined up with the halving pattern that reduces the new Bitcoin supply every four years, shaping the recurring expansion-and-contraction cycle.

The current curve is once again nearing its upper band, showing that profit-taking is now higher than new accumulation.

HOT Stories

If the proportional structure repeats, a full retracement could place Bitcoin between $22,000 and $30,000 before the next halving recovery begins. On-chain metrics are showing cooling realized gains, a reduction in transaction intensity and minor outflows from long-term wallets — all typical of late-cycle phases.

Future of BitcoinThe timeline is clear for CryptoQuant's Ki Young Ju: one year of acceleration, one of peak formation and two of correction before the next halving restarts the pattern. The PnL Index's current slope, which has been flattening out since its 2024 high, lines up perfectly with its historical rhythm.

So, the future of Bitcoin depends on whether this four-year cycle keeps controlling the market or if it finally breaks. If it holds, the next deep reset could be the start of the 2026 accumulation phase.

XRP: +100% new users in record time cryptonews
XRP
10h05 ▪

min read ▪ by
Eddy S.

Summarize this article with:

XRP has just recorded a sharp 100% increase in new users in a few days. Why such a sudden enthusiasm? Between activity records and price questions, discover what’s behind this boom and what it means for the future of this crypto.

In brief

XRP recorded a record 100% increase in new users, with 9,900 accounts created and over 1 billion transactions in 24 hours.
Possible causes of the XRP surge include institutional tests, a return of retail investors, and a strengthened network effect.
Despite intense activity on Ripple, XRP’s price remains stable around 2.52 dollars, raising the question of the sustainability of this growth.

Crypto: a spectacular increase of new XRP users
On October 30, 2025, the XRP network recorded nearly 9,900 new accounts in a single day, a monthly record. Despite the unlocking of 1 billion XRP on October 31, the activity peak continued on November 1, when the number of payments between accounts exceeded one million! With a total crypto transaction volume reaching 1.2 billion XRP. These figures mark a sudden and massive adoption, far beyond usual trends.

Moreover, XRP displays a 24-hour transaction volume of 2.29 billion dollars on November 2, up 5.04%, with a fully diluted market capitalization (FDV) of 248.7 billion dollars. With 99.98 billion XRP in circulation out of a maximum of 100 billion, and 60.1 billion currently circulating, these figures highlight growing liquidity and adoption.

XRP figures
This 100% increase in XRP new users and transaction volume suggests that new crypto investors are not just registering but actively using the network. A dynamic that contrasts with previous periods, where activity was more moderate. These data raise a question: is this growth sustainable or just a temporary peak?

What are the possible causes of the activity peak on the XRP network?
Several hypotheses could explain this activity explosion. Some analysts mention institutional tests conducted by banks and financial actors in anticipation of regulatory clarification. Ripple, with its cross-border payment solutions, could attract new institutional partners, thus boosting XRP adoption.

Another avenue is the return of retail investors, after months of XRP’s relative underperformance compared to other cryptos. Finally, the network effect plays a key role: the more users increase, the more attractive the network becomes, creating a virtuous circle. Recent announcements from Ripple, such as new partnerships or technological improvements, could also explain this dynamic.

What impact on XRP price and what challenges for the future?
Despite this massive adoption, XRP’s price remains moderate around 2.52 dollars. The 100 and 200-day moving averages, located between 2.70 and 2.80 dollars, show an encouraging technical structure, but the price struggles to break these resistance levels. A breakout above could propel XRP to 3.00 dollars. However, failure would expose the crypto to a decline towards 2.35 dollars.

The main challenge for Ripple (XRP) will be to turn this activity peak into sustainable growth. User retention and liquidity inflow will be decisive. Favorable regulatory clarity could also play a key role by reassuring institutions and investors. Without this, this rise may be just a flash in the pan.

The explosion of activity on the XRP network opens intriguing prospects, but its future will depend on its ability to maintain this momentum. The coming months will be crucial to know if Ripple (XRP) can capitalize on this massive adoption. And you, do you think this growth is sustainable or just a passing crypto phenomenon?

Bitcoin Price Dips Below $108K as Hindenburg Omen Sparks Crypto Market Crash Fears cryptonews
BTC
Bitcoin (BTC) started November under selling pressure after ending October in the red for the first time in over six years, sparking renewed crypto market crash concerns. The Bitcoin price fell below $108,000 amid broader market uncertainty driven by global macroeconomic events, whale selloffs, and a bearish technical signal known as the Hindenburg Omen.

The Hindenburg Omen—an indicator famous for predicting the 1987 Black Monday and the 2008 Financial Crisis—has flashed twice recently, warning of a potential downturn. Analyst Tom McClellan noted that multiple occurrences of this signal could amplify market risks. The alert comes as Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF outflows rise and tech giants like Meta, Oracle, and Microsoft see stock declines, deepening fears of a broader financial correction.

Adding to volatility, investors are watching the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on Trump’s tariff policies. Trump defended tariffs on Truth Social, claiming they are vital for America’s economic security. His recent trade agreements, including a one-year deal with China reducing tariffs on rare earths and critical minerals, temporarily boosted crypto sentiment before markets reversed.

Meanwhile, on-chain data shows heavy selloffs from Bitcoin whales and long-term holders, who have offloaded over 405,000 BTC in the past month. Lookonchain reported a whale transferring 13,000 BTC ($1.48 billion) to exchanges, while others have deposited millions in Ethereum, realizing significant profits.

10x Research warned that Bitcoin could fall further below $107,000, citing weakening ETF demand, miner focus shifting toward AI, and fading Ethereum strength. As mega whales continue selling and treasury holdings decline, analysts remain divided on whether this signals a healthy correction or the start of a deeper crypto bear trend.
