In response to Israel’s recent strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, President Donald Trump issued a stern warning to Iran, urging the country to negotiate or face dire consequences.

What Happened: Trump, via his Truth Social account on Friday, criticized Iran for failing to secure a nuclear deal despite multiple opportunities. He highlighted the military prowess of the U.S. and Israel, emphasizing their advanced weaponry and preparedness.

Trump, referring to Israel’s “Rising Lion” strikes that damaged Natanz and eliminated Revolutionary Guard leaders, including Chief Hossein Salami, warned of severe repercussions. He stated that Iranian hardliners, now “all DEAD,” had underestimated the response.  Trump urged Iran to swiftly engage in negotiations to prevent further “slaughter” and “brutal” planned attacks, cautioning of the potential collapse of the “Iranian Empire.”

The President’s post corresponds with reports of rising tensions in the Middle East and the cancellation of U.S.-Iran talks. His message, while advocating for diplomacy, also threatens the use of overwhelming force, sparking fears of a broader conflict in the region.

Why It Matters: The Trump administration had distanced itself from Israel’s recent military actions against Iran, a move that was expected to complicate Trump’s efforts to negotiate a nuclear deal with Tehran. The U.S. was preparing for another round of talks on Iran’s uranium enrichment program, scheduled for Sunday.

Earlier, Trump had made a significant diplomatic gesture towards Iran, expressing hope for improved relations in the Middle East. This came as he lauded the transformative efforts of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates in turning their capitals into thriving commercial centers. Trump’s softer tone towards Iran was seen as an indication of his administration’s willingness to seek a nuclear deal with Tehran.

The recent events have had a significant impact on the markets, with U.S. stocks likely to open lower following Israel’s strikes on Iran. The geopolitical risks have also offered an upside for the dollar, raising concerns about a further rise in tensions in the Middle East and their impact on supply routes.

Meanwhile, defense stocks like Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT), RTX (NYSE:RTX), and General Dynamics (NYSE:GD) climbed higher in Friday’s pre-market trading session amid escalating tensions in the Middle East.

Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp (NASDAQ:TNXP) saw its shares decline Thursday morning after the company filed a Form S-3 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

What To Know: The filing registers the company to offer and sell up to $500 million of various securities. The “shelf” registration allows Tonix to sell common stock, preferred stock, warrants, debt securities and other units from time to time. The company stated it intends to use any net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Tonix is a biotechnology company focused on central nervous system disorders. Its priority is advancing TNX-102 SL for fibromyalgia management, which has a PDUFA goal date of August 15, for a marketing authorization decision from the FDA.

Price Action: According to data from Benzinga Pro, TNXP stock is trading lower by approximately 11.8% at $33.26 Thursday morning. The stock has a short interest of 14.42% of its float, indicating a notable level of bearish sentiment.

How To Buy TNXP Stock

By now you’re likely curious about how to participate in the market for Tonix Pharmaceuticals – be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.

Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of possible trading platforms here. Many will allow you to buy “fractional shares,” which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.

In the case of Tonix Pharmaceuticals, which is trading at $33.48 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 2.99 shares of stock.

If you’re looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You’ll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to “go short” a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a stock can be found at this resource. Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading – either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.

According to data from Benzinga Pro, TNXP has a 52-week high of $137.25 and a 52-week low of $6.76.

Software company Adobe Inc (NASDAQ:ADBE) could highlight its new content creator tools and how AI will power future growth when it releases its second-quarter financial results Thursday after market close.

Here are analyst estimates, what experts are saying and key items to watch.

Earnings Estimates: Analysts estimate Adobe will report second-quarter revenue of $5.79 billion, up from $5.31 billion in the second quarter of last year, according to data from Benzinga Pro.

The company beat analyst estimates in the last fiscal quarter and has beaten estimates in eight of the last 10 quarters overall.

Analysts estimate Adobe will report second-quarter earnings per share of $4.96, up from $4.48 in last year’s second quarter. The company has beaten analyst estimates in nine of the last ten quarters, including the first quarter.

The company’s guidance calls for second-quarter revenue to be in the range of $5.77 billion to $5.82 billion and earnings per share to be in the range of $4.95 to $5.00.

What Experts Are Saying: Freedom Capital Markets Chief Global Strategist Jay Woods said Adobe has traded lower after six of its last seven quarterly financial reports.

“Adobe earnings have been nothing but a heartache for investors over the last several years,” Woods wrote in a weekly newsletter.

He noted that Adobe comes into Thursday’s report with shares down 6.4% for the year and just now trading where they were after the drop from the first quarterly report.

“Overall shares remain -35% from all-time highs set back in January 2024.”

Woods said investors will likely be looking for progress from Adobe for its AI monetization.

“Is annual recurring revenue from its Firefly and Acrobat products showing a strong growth projection? Then of course the all important guidance.”

According to Woods, Adobe shareholders were punished after the first-quarter financial results when the company issued conservative guidance.

“Will forward-looking guidance meet investor expectations?”  

Wedbush analyst Dan Ives highlighted Adobe as a potential beneficiary of NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA), saying that “for every $1 spent on Nvidia, there is an $8-$10 multiplier across the rest of the tech ecosystem.”

The analyst said 2025 could mark the true inflection point in enterprise AI adoption, and many companies, including Adobe, could benefit from Nvidia.

Here are some recent analyst ratings on Adobe and their price targets:

• Citigroup: Maintained Neutral rating, raised price target from $430 to $465
• UBS: Maintained Neutral rating, raised price target from $380 to $430
• RBC Capital: Reiterated Outperform rating, maintained price target of $480

Key Items to Watch: As the experts above predicted, AI will likely be the key topic for investors and analysts when Adobe reports.

First-quarter revenue was up 10% year over year and beat estimates, helping to offset the fourth-quarter results that saw both revenue and EPS miss Street targets.

Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen said the company is well-positioned to capitalize on the growth of AI helping the creative economy.

“Adobe’s success over the next decade will be driven by customer-focused innovation and new offerings for creators, marketing professionals, business professionals and consumers,” Narayen said.

Analysts and investors will be closely watching guidance after the company maintained its full-year 2025 estimates despite beating estimates for the quarter.

ADBE Price Action: Adobe stock was down 0.5% to $414.18 on Wednesday, compared to a 52-week trading range of $2332.01 to $587.75. It is down over 6% year-to-date in 2025 and over 10% in the last year.
