On Friday, Nasdaq Inc’s NDAQ annual reconstitution of the Nasdaq-100 Index will become effective before the market opens on December 23 . Illumina, Inc. ILMN was removed from the index . Year to date, the stock has increased around 8%, underperforming iShares Core S&P Mid-Cap ETF IJH . The provider of DNA sequencing and array-based technologies has been in the news due to its controversial multi-billion dollar deal to acquire cancer test maker Grail Inc GRAL . Also Read: European Court Rules In Favor Of Illumina In Fight Against Probe Into Grail Deal, Asks Not To Pay $478M Fine Nearly four years after pitching for Grail, Illumina finally separated the cancer blood test developer . To expand its reach in single-cell analysis and multiomics research, Illumina acquired privately-held Fluent BioSciences. Also in March, activist investor Carl Icahn opted against pursuing a fresh challenge to Illumina’s board, which spares the U.S. gene sequencing company from facing its second proxy battle in consecutive years. Previously, Icahn had expressed intentions to remove additional directors from Illumina’s board, attributing the company’s substantial market value decline and the ill-fated $7.1 billion Grail acquisition to mismanagement by the existing board members . Most recently, Illumina reported third-quarter adjusted EPS of $1.14, beating the consensus of $0.88, with sales of $1.08 billion, almost in line with the consensus of $1.08 billion . “During the third quarter, the Illumina team delivered strong operating results, and revenue met our expectations,” said Jacob Thaysen, Chief Executive Officer. “The near-term macroeconomic environment remains constrained, and we are slightly lowering our 2024 revenue guidance,” Thaysen added. Price Action: ILMN stock is down 0.12% at $143.70 at the last check on Monday. Also Read: What’s Going On With Moderna Stock On Monday? Photo via Shutterstock © 2024 Benzinga.com.

Publication offers recommendations for lawmakers and policymakers to tackle challenges facing older New Yorkers – the state's fastest-growing population NEW YORK , Dec. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Providing enough funding to ensure older New Yorkers can receive vital in-home services, allowing importation from Canada of less expensive prescription drugs and strengthening protections against financial fraud are just some of the over 90 recommendations AARP New York includes in its newly released "AARP NY State Blueprint For Action," the state organization's publication updated for 2025 to help public officials tackle important issues facing New York residents age 50 years and older. "All New York State elected officials and policymakers must understand the issues faced by our neighbors who are 50-plus, and this insightful roadmap provides the blueprint to do just that," said AARP New York State Director Beth Finkel . "New Yorkers 50-plus helped build our state and make it great. They face many challenges, including ageism, a lack of affordable housing, the rising costs of medications, and more. Through thoughtful solutions to these issues, we can help older New Yorkers thrive as they age in the communities they love." The state's older adult population is growing rapidly. Residents age 50 and older now number 7 million – more than a third of New York State's population – and more than 4.5 million New Yorkers are 60 or older. According to a 2023 report from the Center for an Urban Future, New York State's 65-and-over population grew by 31% since 2011, with the 65-plus segment accounting for nearly one-fifth – 18% – of the state's population. Older adults are the driving force in New York's economy, cultural life, and volunteer base. They also represent the largest voter turnout bloc. AARP has collaborated with this increasingly diverse population to address priorities to make New York better for residents of all backgrounds. Drawing on research and analysis, including a series of briefs about substantial challenges faced by older New Yorkers, AARP is providing this blueprint so New York leaders can use it as a roadmap to ensure New Yorkers 50-plus continue to enhance the Empire State. The report calls on the Governor and Legislature to develop clear plans to make the state more age-friendly and tackle the challenges faced most by New Yorkers 50-plus, including a lack of affordable housing, workplace age discrimination, gaps in access to technology, food insecurity, inadequate coordination of services among government agencies, inaccessible public transportation, hazardous streets, social isolation, caregiving shortfalls and insufficiencies in home-based care.

He fractured his fibula in Week 13 against the Broncos as a rookie last season and had surgery on it the following day. “He dislocated the knee, he tore the ACL, other things there he’ll have to get repaired," Ryans said. “So he’ll be out for the year.” Ryans didn't have a date for Dell's surgery for this injury, but said it would be soon. Dell was injured on a 30-yard touchdown catch in Houston’s 27-19 loss Saturday. He was coming across the back of the end zone and made the spectacular catch on a pass from C.J. Stroud before colliding with Houston teammate Jared Wayne on the way to the ground. Dell immediately grabbed at his knee and Wayne signaled for team trainers, who spent several minutes working on the wide receiver while teammates waited anxiously. Dell was eventually placed on a stretcher and driven in a covered medical cart off the field, and then he was taken to the hospital. He stayed in the hospital overnight before flying back to Houston on Sunday. Stroud, who is so close to Dell that he considers him a brother, cried the entire time the receiver was down on the field and for a while after he was taken away. “It was just not easy for me to sit there and be emotional,” Stroud said Monday. “But it’s something that we all go through in life and it’s easy to be a fake tough guy. It’s easy to go through life acting like everything doesn’t affect you, but deep down we all know we’re going through something.” Some criticized Stroud for crying. But he believes a display of emotion such as that was important to remind people of the human aspect of this game and the toll it can take on players. “It’s good for young men and women out there, kids who are brought up — and I was taught this too as a kid, not from my parents but just from the world, don’t let anybody see you emotional,” he said. “Don’t let anybody see you down and yeah there’s some truth to that in in certain aspects, but there’s also life and I think it was good for people to see me in that light and knowing that there is still a human factor to me and I’m a normal person.” Aaron Rodgers is still contemplating his playing future. The star quarterback knows if he returns to the field, it might be out of hands whether it's with the New York Jets. The 41-year-old Rodgers said last week that he'll take some time after this season, his 20th in the NFL, to determine what he wants to do next. On Monday, he suggested a decision on whether he'll return with the Jets could be made for him the day after the team's regular-season finale. “I think there’s a world where they just say, ‘Hey, thank you, we’re going to go in another direction’ on Jan. 6,” Rodgers said during his weekly appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show.” “That’s a possibility,” he added. "I think there’s also a possibility we’re going to wait and see who the new staff is.”NEW YORK, Dec. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Levi & Korsinsky, LLP notifies investors in ASP Isotopes Inc.
