Bristol-Myers (BMY, $63.09) got a rating boost from Truist

Bristol-Myers (BMY, $63.09) got a rating boost from Truist

Bristol-Myers Squibb  got a rating upgrade from Truist, on optimism about drug pipeline.

Truist analyst Gregg Gilbert boosted rating on the pharmaceutical company to buy from hold. Gilbert also raised his price target to $74 a share from $66. 

“We launched on U.S. major [pharmaceuticals] in October with an overall bullish view on the group, but we started with a hold rating on BMY pending greater visibility on key late-stage pipeline assets,” Gilbert wrote in a commentary. Since then, BMY has received regulatory approval for Abecma (ide-cel) and Breyanzi (liso-cel), and announced positive top-line Phase 3 results for deucravacitinib (TYK2 inhibitor) and relatlimab (LAG-3 inhibitor), Gilbert mentioned.

Gilbert cited pipeline progress coupled with results from detailed pipeline analysis as factors behind the rating boost.

Nebius Group N.V. is expected to report third-quarter 2026 results in early November, following a second quarter in which revenue surged 454% year over year. Wall Street consensus tracked by Benzinga points to roughly $937 million in Q3 2026 revenue, up from $146.1 million in the year-ago quarter.
AtlasClear Holdings (ATCH) shares fell roughly 25.5% over the last 30 days, declining from $0.1881 on October 2 to $0.1401 on October 30. The pullback extended a longer downtrend that has kept the stock trading well below the $1.00 NYSE American minimum, keeping continued listing-compliance risk in focus.
The $1.14 central target is not an analyst consensus; it is the all-cash merger consideration in GoPro, Inc. (GPRO) 's pending deal with Starman Optical, agreed in September 2026. With the stock trading near $0.88, reaching $1.14 would require a move of roughly 29.5%.
NVDA fell -2.10% to $216.66 during regular trading, down from a prior close of $221.30. Primary catalyst: hotter-than-expected September CPI data reignited Fed rate-hike fears, raising borrowing costs for AI infrastructure buildouts.
BZ dropped sharply, sliding from a $16.72 prior close to $13.48 (-19.38%), with the decline beginning in premarket and deepening into the early regular session. No verified company-specific news or fundamental catalyst was issued; the fall tracked a broad China ADR selloff (the Nasdaq Golden Dragon index slid more than 2%), but that alone is too small to explain a ~20% drop — the stock's Hong Kong listing fell only -2.6%.
