Check Out What Whales Are Doing With CLSK

Rising mortgage costs have created an unexpected silver lining for many young professionals priced out of homeownership – driving <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/03/37613057/occupancy-rate-in-new-yorks-luxury-rental-sector-at-a-30-year-high">demand for luxury rental properties that offer amenities far beyond typical starter homes</a>. A new CBRE study by Forbes revealed a 35% gap between average monthly mortgage payments and apartment rents, sparked by a 75% surge in mortgage costs since 2019.
That affordability gap has transformed rental market dynamics, with upscale apartment developers competing to attract long-term tenants through resort-style amenities. New York&#8217;s The Ellery and Miami&#8217;s 2000 Biscayne are examples of the trend, both reaching 50% occupancy within months of opening.

<li>During market downturns, investors are learning that unlike equities, these<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/connect-invest-real-estate-notes"> high-yield real estate notes that pay 7.5% &#8211; 9% are protected by resilient assets, buffering against losses.</a></li>
<li>This Jeff Bezos-backed startup will allow you to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/bezos-landlord-100-dollars">become a landlord in just 10 minutes, with minimum investments as low as $100 for properties like the Byer House from Stranger Things.</a></li>
</ul>
&#8220;Renters in today&#8217;s luxury market want to be wowed, which inspired us to focus on stunning views, hotel-level amenities and museum-level art,&#8221; Colleen Wenke, president of Taconic Partners, developer of The Ellery, explained to Forbes. The 32-story Manhattan property features private dining rooms with wine fridges, a full-service spa and a rooftop pool with cabanas.
In Miami, 2000 Biscayne caters to similar preferences with a 5,000-square-foot fitness center, wellness spa and outdoor yoga areas overlooking Biscayne Bay. &#8220;Renters increasingly place a premium on health and wellness, productivity, calm and convenience,&#8221; Nicholas Pantuliano, COO of PTM Partners, said.
The trend extends beyond coastal markets. Philadelphia&#8217;s The Noble offers a year-round 75-foot pool, a 17,000-square-foot gym and extensive coworking spaces, reflecting nationwide demand for lifestyle-focused rental communities.

CBRE forecasts that the homeownership premium will decrease but remain significant enough to keep many potential buyers in luxury rentals longer. The shift has prompted developers to emphasize amenities previously associated with high-end condominiums, from wine storage to private treatment rooms.
The appeal stems partly from flexibility – the properties offer upscale living without the maintenance responsibilities or long-term homeownership commitment. For millennials facing an uncertain housing market, luxury rentals provide immediate access to premium lifestyles while keeping future options open.
The evolution in rental housing reflects broader changes in how young professionals view home and community.

The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/gold">glitter of gold </a>is losing its luster for two mining giants, Barrick Gold Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>) and Newmont Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>), as both stocks have hit a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/death-cross">technical Death Cross</a>—a bearish signal when the 50-day moving average falls below the 200-day moving average. 
For those betting on these miners to sparkle, the charts suggest the treasure hunt may be on pause.

Barrick Gold&#8217;s stock is down 11.97% year-to-date, with its recent performance offering little reason to cheer. The stock sits at $15.65, below its 20-day ($16.53) and 50-day ($17.86) simple moving averages.
While its relative strength index at 34.24 suggests it's approaching oversold territory, the MACD indicator, at a negative 0.61 confirms the bearish sentiment.
Adding a flicker of hope, GOLD&#8217;s eight-day SMA ($15.64) provides a faint bullish signal as the stock barely clings to this short-term moving average. 
But let's not get ahead of ourselves—geopolitical tensions and rising U.S. Treasury yields continue to cast a shadow over gold prices.

Newmont, down 6.89% year-to-date, isn't faring any better. Its share price of $38.09 sits below its 20-day ($40.24), 50-day ($44.27), and 200-day ($44.86) SMAs—a trifecta of bearish indicators. 
The MACD reading of a negative 1.65 and an RSI of 32.28 suggest further downside is likely, with selling pressure mounting.
Even safe-haven demand for gold amid geopolitical tensions hasn't managed to prop up these miners. Rising U.S. dollar strength and Treasury yields have dampened gold's appeal, turning a potential golden opportunity into fool's gold for investors.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Outlook: Mining For Better Days?</h2>
With gold prices stuck between geopolitical jitters and the gravitational pull of stronger U.S. economic data, Barrick and Newmont's Death Cross signals are a clear warning for investors. 
Until the macroeconomic winds shift or gold prices break resistance, these mining heavyweights may find themselves digging deeper into bearish territory.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing EQT's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, EQT's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.53%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Amedisys Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMED#NASDAQ">AMED</a>) shares are trading higher on Friday after the company announced it extended its <a target="_blank" href="https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0000896262/048b8c3e-592e-42de-a13b-289ffd8da57d.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">merger</a> deadline with UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNH#NYSE">UNH</a>).
In an exchange filing, the companies entered into a waiver agreement, further advancing their merger deal, originally<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/24/11/41987383/unitedhealths-optum-defends-multi-billion-dollar-amedisys-deal-ensures-competitive-landscape" rel="noreferrer noopener"> announced on June 26, 2023.</a>
Under the terms of the agreement, Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of UnitedHealth, will merge with Amedisys, with Amedisys continuing to operate as a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group.
The companies have agreed to push their $3.3 billion merger deadline to next year. This extension follows intense scrutiny from the U.S. Department of Justice, Reuters reports.
Over a month ago, the DOJ and three U.S. states <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/11/41917050/justice-department-moves-to-block-unitedhealths-amedisys-takeover-whats-going-on" rel="noreferrer noopener">filed a lawsuit to prevent the deal.</a> They argued that the merger would harm competition in the home health services market.

The waiver allows both Amedisys and UnitedHealth Group to extend the period during which they cannot terminate the merger due to delays.
The companies have agreed to waive their right to terminate the agreement until the earlier of two conditions: 5:00 p.m. New York time on the tenth business day after a final order from the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland permanently blocking the merger, or 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2025.
The waiver ensures that the merger process remains in effect until one of these deadlines is reached.
The waiver also includes important financial and operational adjustments. The Regulatory Break Fee under the merger agreement is set at $275 million, which could increase to $325 million if certain divestiture milestones are not met.
Additionally, the waiver modifies certain operational restrictions and closing conditions, particularly those related to government approvals, and increases the revenue-related aspect of the "Burdensome Condition" definition.
Despite regulatory scrutiny and potential challenges, this waiver marks a key development in the ongoing efforts to finalize the merger.
The companies continue to work toward completing the deal, which is expected to provide both parties substantial synergies and growth opportunities.
Price Action: UNH shares are trading lower by 0.52% to $508.47 at last check Friday. AMED is up 4.48%.

As Kentucky prepares to roll out its medical cannabis program on Jan. 1, 2025, the already complex issue of gun sales and weed will likely get even more complex due to federal regulations that prohibit marijuana <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/guns">consumers from possessing firearms</a>.
Under federal law, as long as cannabis is classified as a Schedule I drug under the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/controlled-substances-act">Controlled Substances Act</a> (CSA) these complexities involving the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) will persist.
As of New Year&#8217;s Day, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42203777/kentucky-awards-first-medical-cannabis-dispensary-licenses">medical marijuana will be legal </a>in Kentucky although, due to the CSA, it remains <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40859406/cannabis-prices-would-be-significantly-lower-in-the-us-if-legalized-study-finds">illegal under federal law</a>. Hence, Kentuckians who own or want to own guns are in a difficult position — a situation faced by gun owners across the U.S. who need or want to consume medical marijuana.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ATF Paperwork Is Complicated</h2>
If you want to buy a gun, the process begins with ATF Form 4473. The form includes a question that specifically asks if the buyer is an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana, among other controlled substances. Even if marijuana use is legal on a state level, answering yes to any part of that question can disqualify the individual from being able to buy a firearm. If you check yes, licensed sellers cannot legally sell you a gun.
&#8220;You cannot possess firearms and ammunition and also be a user of marijuana,&#8221; ATF Special Agent AJ Gibes said Wednesday, <a href="https://www.wdrb.com/news/starting-jan-1-kentuckians-will-have-to-choose-between-medical-marijuana-or-firearms/article_730a16b6-b80c-11ef-9721-93daace5ff86.html">reported</a> Kentucky's WDRB.com.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Give Up Your Right To Bear Arms</h2>
This not only applies to new gun purchases, current legal gun owners also face the tough decision of keeping their guns or partaking in the benefits of medical marijuana.
&#8220;If they wish to follow federal law and not be in violation of it, then they need to make the decision to divest themselves of those firearms,&#8221; Gibes said when asked if medical marijuana card owners are expected to give up their guns.
&#8220;We are not actively seeking and working solely on investigations involving just the possession of firearms and marijuana because of our finite resources,&#8221; he said. Still, for Kentuckians interested in following the law, this is the decision they'll face.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Don&#8217;t Lie To The ATF</h2>
Lying on form 4473 is punishable by up to 15 years in prison and/or up to a $250,000 fine. However, Gibes said charges are likely to only be pursued only in connection with another felony.

<h3>About Lowe's Companies</h3>
Lowe's is the second-largest home improvement retailer in the world, operating more than 1,700 stores in the United States, after the 2023 divestiture of its Canadian locations (RONA, Lowe's Canada, Réno-Dépôt, and Dick's Lumber). The firm's stores offer products and services for home decorating, maintenance, repair, and remodeling, with maintenance and repair accounting for two thirds of products sold. Lowe's primarily targets retail do-it-yourself (around 70% of sales in 2024) and do-it-for-me customers, but has expanded its commercial and professional business clients to 30% from less than 20% in the past six years. We estimate Lowe's captures a high-single-digit share of the domestic home improvement market, based on US Census data and management's market size estimates.
