NexPoint Residential Trust is an apartment REIT focused on Sun Belt markets such as Phoenix, South Florida, Dallas/Fort Worth, and Atlanta. Core FFO growth continued in Q2 2025, although the key driving factor, share repurchases, appears unsustainable in light of rising leverage. Operational performance remains challenging, with no immediate turnaround expected in H2 2025.

Assessing Blackstone Mortgage's Performance For Q2 — Negative

BX   Seeking Alpha — August 27, 2025

BXMT's Q2 2025 results were largely as expected, with minor BV fluctuations and modest core earnings outperformance driven by higher-than-anticipated loan originations. The company shifted to a more aggressive loan origination strategy, signaling a potential stabilization in portfolio size, but credit risk remains elevated with new non-accrual loans. I maintain a risk/performance rating of 4.5, as BXMT is still working through legacy troubled loans and faces ongoing challenges in office and multifamily segments.

2 Logical Mid-Cap Biotech Buyout Targets — Positive

ABVX  MLTX   Seeking Alpha — August 27, 2025

There have been some significant acquisitions in the mid-cap biotech space over the past couple of months. In today's column, I highlight two mid-cap biotech names that should have bright futures on their own, but would make logical buyout candidates: Abivax Société Anonyme and MoonLake Immunotherapeutics. Both have late-stage assets targeting large markets, and both companies should file for their first FDA approvals in 2026.

3 Oil Stocks That Could Surge Soon — Positive

DVN  HAL  SLB   Seeking Alpha — August 27, 2025

High-quality oil stocks like Schlumberger, Halliburton, and Devon Energy have seen significant declines but likely bottomed in early April. Oil prices are unlikely to stay depressed, with potential for a substantial move higher by 2026 as market dynamics and political factors shift. Saudi Arabia's need for higher oil prices and anticipated Fed rate cuts should support a rebound in oil prices and sector equities.
