Portfolio Pulse from Lisa Levin
The Federal Reserve has decided to maintain interest rates at 5.25% to 5.5%. This decision led to a rise in the Dow, NASDAQ, and S&P 500. Stocks of Cellectis, Patriot Transportation Holding, and TG Therapeutics rose significantly due to strategic collaborations, acquisitions, and positive Q3 results respectively. However, WeWork, IRIDEX Corporation, and Paycom Software saw a drop in their shares due to bankruptcy reports, withdrawal of annual guidance, and poor Q3 sales results respectively.
