New CEO Dave Emerson Leads Charge Toward ASX Return Virgin Australia, the Bain Capital owned airline that has been a key player in Australia’s aviation scene, is gearing up for a dramatic return to the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) after its delisting in 2020, according to a late Sunday report from the Australian Financial Review (AFR).

Unpacking the Hype, Risks, and Market Fallout of CoreWeave’s Debut CoreWeave, a high flying Nvidia backed AI infrastructure firm, stumbled out of the gate in its Nasdaq debut, with shares closing flat at $40 after opening at $39, a disappointing drop from its $40 IPO price.

This updated forecast, detailed in their latest report, reflects a cautious stance on the U.S. economy, with the bank assigning a 60% probability to their base case scenario. In this scenario, they anticipate that earnings per share (EPS) will drop to $262 from $271, applying a 22.5x multiple to arrive at the revised S&P 500 price target of 5,900. The downgrade stems from concerns over how tariffs, including a 25% levy on imports from Canada and Mexico and up to 20% on China, could dampen corporate earnings and slow economic activity without necessarily triggering a full blown recession.
