Nuvalent Trades Close to $124 After GSK’s $10.6 Billion Offer

Nuvalent is trading on deal odds now, not on drug data. Shares last traded at $123.25, up 39.28%, after GSK said it will buy the Nasdaq-listed biotech for $124 per share in cash. That leaves just a small discount to the offer price. Nuvalent’s stock is being valued more like a GSK takeover play than an oncology bet.

MARKET CALENDAR

Key Events Today

The catalysts most likely to move markets.

#1

U.S. index futures reopen at 18:00 ET

This is the clearest scheduled U.S.-market price-discovery point today and can transmit weekend news into equity-index futures before Monday's cash session.

#2

New Zealand retail sales at 18:45 ET

The Q2 retail package can move NZD and regional risk sentiment. Spillover to U.S. assets is usually secondary unless the result is unusually large.

#3

No scheduled domestic U.S. data or corporate reports

The absence of U.S. releases, earnings, IPO pricings and split events leaves fewer scheduled catalysts, increasing the relative importance of weekend headlines and positioning at the futures reopen.
