CytoDyn, Inc. (OTCMKTS: CYDY) stock price recently saw a notable rise as it began its recovery from last year’s scandals and the overall difficulties that struck the financial market. The company has last seen a price surge back in July and August 2022, when it skyrocketed from $0.39 on July 13th to $1.23 on August 4th, which was the highest point that CYDY managed to reach in 2022. After that, however, the company’s stock corrected, spiraling down throughout the second half of the year, eventually hitting its lowest point in 2022 on December 22nd, as it crashed to $0.19.

While the second part of 2022 was marked by a steady and consistent decline, the situation has taken a turn with the arrival of 2023. The first two and a half months of the new year have been rather rewarding for CytoDyn, at least as far as the stock price is concerned.

The firm has seen the rise of CYDY price, which managed to climb back up to $0.3396 by February 22nd. After correcting for the rest of the month, the stock price bounced back up with the start of March, climbing up even further to $0.46 by March 8th. Over the weekend, however, it started seeing a mild correction again, which brought it down to its current value of $0.4075.

CytoDyn, Inc. (OTCMKTS: CYDY) has been making headlines throughout 2022, and for the most part, the events that surrounded the company were negative. The company’s now-former CEO, Nader Pourhassan, was found to be a part of a scheme meant to defraud investors of the Vancouver-based firm. The scheme revolved around false and misleading representations and omissions regarding the company’s development of a drug candidate to treat HIV and later on, COVID-19, as well. The FDA’s Office of Criminal Investigations said:

The conduct alleged in these charges erodes public trust in the safety and effectiveness of medical products, including drugs. The FDA would like to extend our thanks to our federal law enforcement partners for sending a strong message to biotechnology executives and others that these types of actions will not be tolerated.

According to reports, Pourhassan, who lives in Lake Oswego, was collaborating on the scheme with Kazem Kazempour of Potomac, Maryland. Pourhassan was originally ousted in January 2022, and is facing a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison on all counts of securities and wire fraud, as well as five years on a conspiracy count, if the court finds that he was guilty. The US SEC also charged him with insider trading and fraud, as he provided shareholders with misleading information regarding the progress of the company’s drug. The company itself condemned its former CEO, stating that it is not responsible for its actions. However, many in the financial community were outraged by this stance.

In January 2023, Nader Pourhassan also filed a lawsuit against his former company, demanding that his former employer covers his attorney’s fees, as well as other expenses that he suffered while defending himself against the mentioned charges.

Another interesting development came last week when CytoDyn decided to provide disclosure of unregistered sale of equity securities because, as of March 2nd, 2023, the unregistered sale of securities — that were previously not reported — in the aggregate managed to exceed 5% of te shares of the company’s common stock outstanding as of February 28th of this year.

The company concluded a private offering to accredited investors using a placement agent, which commenced earlier this year in January. Reports say that each unit consisted of a single share of common stock and one warrant to buy one share of common stock. The price per unit was $0.23, and between February 28th and March 3rd, the firm received binding subscription agreements, which totaled $4.9 million, for the purchase of approximately 21.3 million units.

CytoDyn, Inc. (OTCMKTS: CYDY) is a company whose purpose is to help enhance the lives of patients that suffer from life-threatening diseases. According to its website, the firm is in late-stage clinical development of leronlimab — a CCR5 receptor antagonist — which is to be used as a platform drug for different therapeutic indications. That includes NASH, NASH/HIV, HIV, and oncology. The firm says that its mission is to alleviate human suffering and improve quality of life through collaboration and innovation. After Pourhassan was replaced as the firm’s president, his successor, Cyrus Arman, Ph.D., made headlines for his ambition, as he implemented “big plans” for leronlimab and CytoDyn.

As for the CytiDyb stock, it has suffered a lot in light of the scandals involving the company’s former CEO. However, it seems that the change in leadership has been good for the company so far, at least as far as CYDY performance is concerned. While many are skeptical of the company and its trustworthiness following the events of 2022, its performance so far has been fairly positive. It could be that, with time, the firm could regain its lost reputation once more.

NY Fed Finds Medium, Long-Term Inflation Expectations Jump Amid Surge In Stock Market Optimism

NY Fed Finds Medium, Long-Term Inflation Expectations Jump Amid Surge In Stock Market Optimism

One month after the inflation outlook tracked by the NY Fed Consumer Survey extended their late 2023 slide, with 3Y inflation expectations in January sliding to a record low 2.4% (from 2.6% in December), even as 1 and 5Y inflation forecasts remained flat, moments ago the NY Fed reported that in February there was a sharp rebound in longer-term inflation expectations, rising to 2.7% from 2.4% at the three-year ahead horizon, and jumping to 2.9% from 2.5% at the five-year ahead horizon, while the 1Y inflation outlook was flat for the 3rd month in a row, stuck at 3.0%. 

The increases in both the three-year ahead and five-year ahead measures were most pronounced for respondents with at most high school degrees (in other words, the "really smart folks" are expecting deflation soon). The survey’s measure of disagreement across respondents (the difference between the 75th and 25th percentile of inflation expectations) decreased at all horizons, while the median inflation uncertainty—or the uncertainty expressed regarding future inflation outcomes—declined at the one- and three-year ahead horizons and remained unchanged at the five-year ahead horizon.

Going down the survey, we find that the median year-ahead expected price changes increased by 0.1 percentage point to 4.3% for gas; decreased by 1.8 percentage points to 6.8% for the cost of medical care (its lowest reading since September 2020); decreased by 0.1 percentage point to 5.8% for the cost of a college education; and surprisingly decreased by 0.3 percentage point for rent to 6.1% (its lowest reading since December 2020), and remained flat for food at 4.9%.

We find the rent expectations surprising because it is happening just asking rents are rising across the country.

At the same time as consumers erroneously saw sharply lower rents, median home price growth expectations remained unchanged for the fifth consecutive month at 3.0%.

Turning to the labor market, the survey found that the average perceived likelihood of voluntary and involuntary job separations increased, while the perceived likelihood of finding a job (in the event of a job loss) declined. "The mean probability of leaving one’s job voluntarily in the next 12 months also increased, by 1.8 percentage points to 19.5%."

Mean unemployment expectations - or the mean probability that the U.S. unemployment rate will be higher one year from now - decreased by 1.1 percentage points to 36.1%, the lowest reading since February 2022. Additionally, the median one-year-ahead expected earnings growth was unchanged at 2.8%, remaining slightly below its 12-month trailing average of 2.9%.

Turning to household finance, we find the following:

  • The median expected growth in household income remained unchanged at 3.1%. The series has been moving within a narrow range of 2.9% to 3.3% since January 2023, and remains above the February 2020 pre-pandemic level of 2.7%.
  • Median household spending growth expectations increased by 0.2 percentage point to 5.2%. The increase was driven by respondents with a high school degree or less.
  • Median year-ahead expected growth in government debt increased to 9.3% from 8.9%.
  • The mean perceived probability that the average interest rate on saving accounts will be higher in 12 months increased by 0.6 percentage point to 26.1%, remaining below its 12-month trailing average of 30%.
  • Perceptions about households’ current financial situations deteriorated somewhat with fewer respondents reporting being better off than a year ago. Year-ahead expectations also deteriorated marginally with a smaller share of respondents expecting to be better off and a slightly larger share of respondents expecting to be worse off a year from now.
  • The mean perceived probability that U.S. stock prices will be higher 12 months from now increased by 1.4 percentage point to 38.9%.
  • At the same time, perceptions and expectations about credit access turned less optimistic: "Perceptions of credit access compared to a year ago deteriorated with a larger share of respondents reporting tighter conditions and a smaller share reporting looser conditions compared to a year ago."

Also, a smaller percentage of consumers, 11.45% vs 12.14% in prior month, expect to not be able to make minimum debt payment over the next three months

Last, and perhaps most humorous, is the now traditional cognitive dissonance one observes with these polls, because at a time when long-term inflation expectations jumped, which clearly suggests that financial conditions will need to be tightened, the number of respondents expecting higher stock prices one year from today jumped to the highest since November 2021... which incidentally is just when the market topped out during the last cycle before suffering a painful bear market.

Homes listed for sale in early June sell for $7,700 more

New Zillow research suggests the spring home shopping season may see a second wave this summer if mortgage rates fall
The post Homes listed for sale in…

  • A Zillow analysis of 2023 home sales finds homes listed in the first two weeks of June sold for 2.3% more. 
  • The best time to list a home for sale is a month later than it was in 2019, likely driven by mortgage rates.
  • The best time to list can be as early as the second half of February in San Francisco, and as late as the first half of July in New York and Philadelphia. 

Spring home sellers looking to maximize their sale price may want to wait it out and list their home for sale in the first half of June. A new Zillow® analysis of 2023 sales found that homes listed in the first two weeks of June sold for 2.3% more, a $7,700 boost on a typical U.S. home.  

The best time to list consistently had been early May in the years leading up to the pandemic. The shift to June suggests mortgage rates are strongly influencing demand on top of the usual seasonality that brings buyers to the market in the spring. This home-shopping season is poised to follow a similar pattern as that in 2023, with the potential for a second wave if the Federal Reserve lowers interest rates midyear or later. 

The 2.3% sale price premium registered last June followed the first spring in more than 15 years with mortgage rates over 6% on a 30-year fixed-rate loan. The high rates put home buyers on the back foot, and as rates continued upward through May, they were still reassessing and less likely to bid boldly. In June, however, rates pulled back a little from 6.79% to 6.67%, which likely presented an opportunity for determined buyers heading into summer. More buyers understood their market position and could afford to transact, boosting competition and sale prices.

The old logic was that sellers could earn a premium by listing in late spring, when search activity hit its peak. Now, with persistently low inventory, mortgage rate fluctuations make their own seasonality. First-time home buyers who are on the edge of qualifying for a home loan may dip in and out of the market, depending on what’s happening with rates. It is almost certain the Federal Reserve will push back any interest-rate cuts to mid-2024 at the earliest. If mortgage rates follow, that could bring another surge of buyers later this year.

Mortgage rates have been impacting affordability and sale prices since they began rising rapidly two years ago. In 2022, sellers nationwide saw the highest sale premium when they listed their home in late March, right before rates barreled past 5% and continued climbing. 

Zillow’s research finds the best time to list can vary widely by metropolitan area. In 2023, it was as early as the second half of February in San Francisco, and as late as the first half of July in New York. Thirty of the top 35 largest metro areas saw for-sale listings command the highest sale prices between May and early July last year. 

Zillow also found a wide range in the sale price premiums associated with homes listed during those peak periods. At the hottest time of the year in San Jose, homes sold for 5.5% more, a $88,000 boost on a typical home. Meanwhile, homes in San Antonio sold for 1.9% more during that same time period.
