Denali Therapeutics Inc

Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>) filed a federal lawsuit Monday against California Attorney General Rob Bonta and environmental groups, alleging defamation of its advanced plastics recycling initiatives, as the oil giant pushes forward with significant investments in recycling technology.
What Happened: Filed in Beaumont, Texas, the lawsuit claims Bonta acted in concert with law firm Cotchett, Pitre &amp; McCarthy, which has connections to Australian billionaire Andrew Forrest&#8217;s Minderoo Foundation. The foundation controls Fortescue, a competitor in low-carbon solutions, Reuters reported.
The legal action comes as Exxon <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42117222/exxonmobil-aims-high-with-200-million-investment-in-cutting-edge-plastic-recycling">advances a $200 million expansion</a> of its advanced recycling capabilities in Texas. The technology breaks down hard-to-recycle plastics at the molecular level for reuse, part of the company&#8217;s broader sustainability strategy.
&#8220;Defendants are repeatedly and publicly attacking ExxonMobil with false accusations of being a &#8216;liar&#8217; and declarations that advanced recycling is a &#8216;myth&#8217; and a &#8216;sham,'&#8221; Exxon stated in its complaint, seeking undisclosed damages and retractions.
Why It Matters: The California Department of Justice defended its position, calling the lawsuit &#8220;another attempt from ExxonMobil to deflect attention from its own unlawful deception.&#8221; This follows Bonta&#8217;s 2023 lawsuit against Exxon over alleged decades-long deception about recycling limitations.
The legal battle unfolds as Exxon pursues <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42444546/2030-roadmap-exxonmobil-to-achieve-54m-barrelsday-production-targets-20-billion-earnings-boost">ambitious growth targets</a>, including a $20 billion earnings boost by 2030 and $30 billion in lower-emissions investments. The company recently announced plans for $20 billion in annual share repurchases for 2025-2026, supported by projected surplus cash of $165 billion.
Wall Street maintains a positive outlook on Exxon, with analysts setting an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/XOM/analyst-ratings">average price target</a> of $127.96, representing a potential upside from current trading levels of around $108. 
The company trades at a price-to-earnings ratio of 13.54 and offers a dividend yield of 3.64%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Clarivate Announced The Release Of The Twelfth Annual Drugs To Watch Report, A Trusted Guide To The Therapies Poised To Redefine The Future Of Healthcare

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk on Tuesday said that Grok chatbot, created by his artificial intelligence startup xAI, is going to be integrated into Tesla vehicles &#8220;soon.&#8221;
What Happened: &#8220;Grok in Teslas is coming soon. So you will be able to talk to your Tesla and ask for anything,&#8221; Musk said in a live stream on social media platform X. 
Tesla confirmed the announcement with its CEO via its X account, dedicated to updates about its Cybertruck.
&#8220;You can ask for anything but I'll only give it to you if I'm in a good mood,&#8221; the company wrote on its Cybertruck profile about Musk&#8217;s announcement. 
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">You can ask for anything but I'll only give it to you if I'm in a good mood

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Why It Matters: Musk said as long back as Nov. 2023 that he would discuss a possible xAI-Tesla partnership with the Tesla board. Grok is now available only to users of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42645821/elon-musks-xai-expands-with-new-chatbot-app">Musk-owned social media platform&nbsp;X</a>.
In December, the xAI announced that it has<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/12/42358400/elon-musks-xai-raises-6b-for-the-2nd-time-this-year-as-it-looks-to-take-the-challenge-to-openai-google-and-jeff-bezos-backed-anthropic"> secured $6 billion in Series C funding</a> from major technology and financial institutions, marking its second major funding round in 2024. Nvidia, AMD, A16Z, Blackrock, Fidelity&nbsp;Management&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;Research&nbsp;Company, Kingdom&nbsp;Holdings, Lightspeed, MGX, Morgan&nbsp;Stanley, OIA, QIA, Sequoia&nbsp;Capital, Valor&nbsp;Equity Partners and Vy&nbsp;Capital participated in the funding.
Grok 3, xAI&#8217;s new language model, is currently training. Musk said last week that Grok 3 is &#8220;coming soon&#8221; without giving a clearer timeline.

Citigroup Gears Up For Q4 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

Analysts at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/truist-securities">Truist Securities</a> initiated coverage on 24 large-cap, regional, and trust banks, as well as credit card companies. They anticipate strong earnings growth over the next two years, projecting an annual increase of 12-15% fueled by factors like improving loan growth, a steeper yield curve, and ample capital for expansion.
What Happened: Forecasting a favorable environment for banks in 2025 and 2026, the analysts at Truist foresee a less stringent regulatory environment, with more clarity and flexibility for banks regarding mergers and acquisitions, and the deployment of excess capital.
The note highlighted that the banking stocks were de-rated during the first two years of Trump 1.0 because the yield curve was flattened and late-cycle macro concerns surfaced, even as the administration enacted bank-friendly tax reform and regulatory tailoring. However, according to the brokerage, a little Fed easing and a steeper curve are necessary for the stocks to be re-rated and two rate cuts are expected in 2025, as hinted by Fed during their December meeting. 
According to Truist, while bank valuations have increased, they remain relatively attractive compared to historical levels. They currently trade at a price-to-book value (P/TBV) below their post-financial crisis average, and at a significant discount to the broader market. The note adds that given the current market valuations, bank stocks appear undervalued relative to the S&amp;P 500.
However, despite Truist beliefs that the sector offers attractive opportunities, careful stock selection is crucial according to them. &#8220;While we're not at &#8216;close your eyes and buy ‘em levels,&#8217; we still see attractive opportunities across the sector and view stock selection as increasingly important,&#8221; the note said.

Why It Matters: Truist&#8217;s coverage on 24 financial stocks is spread across three subgroups namely, large-cap, regional, and trust banks, which is initiated with a positive outlook.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Large-Cap Banks</h3>
The research note examines long-term investment potential of large U.S. banks as these institutions possess significant advantages, including, &#8220;embedded offense&#8221; with the presence of strong existing businesses and customer relationships.
It also anticipates cyclical tailwinds and capital leverage for such banks given a favorable economic environment and the ability to effectively utilize capital for growth.
These factors position large U.S. banks to achieve organic growth by the expansion of core businesses, double-digit earnings growth and an attractive returns on equity.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trust Banks And Capital Markets</h3>
Truist anticipates gradual interest rate decreases, the eventual end of quantitative tightening, and a healthy economy and capital markets providing a competitive landscape to trust banks.
According to the analysts, investors should prioritize stocks with the potential for sustained operating leverage. Which is the ability to increase profitability significantly with relatively small increases in revenue. And stocks with strong capital returns, with high levels of income through dividends and share buybacks.

Yield Curve Normalization, Cheap Valuation, EPS Growth To Boost Banks In 2025: Truist Initiates Coverage On These 14 Regional Names

Quantum computing stocks faced a sharp decline following remarks from&nbsp;Jensen Huang, CEO of&nbsp;Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). During Nvidia&#8217;s analyst day, Huang expressed optimism about quantum computing&#8217;s future but warned that practical applications might be 15 to 30 years away.
What Happened: Huang highlighted that while quantum computing is effective for small data and big compute tasks, it struggles with large data due to its microwave-based communication. He emphasized the necessity of classical computers for error correction, positioning Nvidia as a significant player in the classical-quantum computing space. Nvidia collaborates with nearly every quantum computing company worldwide, extending their CUDA platform to quantum applications.
&#8220;If you kind of said 15 years for very useful quantum computers, that would probably be on the early side. If you said 30, it&#8217;s probably on the late side,&#8221; Huang said.
&#8220;If you picked 20, I think a whole bunch of us would believe it.&#8221;
Following Huang&#8217;s comments, quantum computing stocks saw a notable drop in overnight trading in Robinhood on Wednesday. IonQ Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IONQ#NYSE">IONQ</a>) fell by 10.75%, Quantum Computing Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QUBT#NASDAQ">QUBT</a>) declined by 12.86%, and D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QBTS#NYSE">QBTS</a>) and Rigetti Computing Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGTI#NASDAQ">RGTI</a>) experienced decreases of 14.14% and 13%, respectively. The market&#8217;s reaction reflects investor concerns over the extended timeline for quantum computing advancements.
Why It Matters: The recent downturn in quantum computing stocks underscores the challenges and uncertainties facing the sector. As highlighted by&nbsp;Jim Cramer, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/42781091/jim-cramer-warns-day-is-not-near-enough-to-justify-the-current-valuations-of-quantum-computing-nuclear-power-stocks">long development timelines </a>and current market valuations raise concerns for investors. Despite the U.S. quantum computing market&#8217;s projected growth from $138.2 million in 2022 to $1.2 billion by 2030, the path to practical applications remains lengthy.
Quantum computing is often <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42638753/quantum-computing-the-new-ai-a-look-at-the-rapidly-expanding-market-and-top-stocks-for-2025">compared to&nbsp;artificial intelligence</a>&nbsp;in terms of its transformative potential. Experts predict it will drive breakthroughs in fields like cryptography, drug discovery, and optimization. However, the technology&#8217;s reliance on qubits, which can represent multiple states simultaneously, means it still faces significant hurdles before it can match the speed and efficiency of classical computers.
