Morning Market Surge: Innovation, M&A, and Strategic Expansion Drive Early Action
DENVER, Colo., Sep 18, 2025 (247marketnews.com)- From Beam’s smart batteries to NVIDIA and Intel’s AI fusion, markets are buzzing with transformative moves
Beam Global (NASDAQ:BEEM) is charging into the spotlight after being granted a U.S. patent for its proprietary Smart Phase Change Composite (PCC) thermal management system for lithium-ion batteries. This innovation improves battery performance in extreme climates, from the deserts of the Middle East to European winters, while boosting reliability and lifespan across applications from drones to EVs.
With its new patent (US 12,422,195), Beam strengthens its IP moat as it continues expanding globally, including a new footprint in the Middle East. CEO Desmond Wheatley highlighted that Beam’s batteries are already used in “classified and sensitive government applications,” making the patent not just a technical win, but a strategic one as well.
TEN Holdings (NASDAQ:XHLD) is riding the small-cap wave and building serious momentum after launching its Ten Pro platform in July. As the Russell 2000 continues to outperform the S&P 500 this year, small-cap tech is getting more attention and XHLD is capitalizing.
Targeting the $1.6 trillion live and virtual events market, the company’s SaaS model is gaining traction. Analyst Barry M. Sine reiterated his $8 price target, citing “ahead-of-schedule deployment” and growing traction with venues and corporate clients. Shares continue to trend higher, potentially making XHLD a standout into Q4.
NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) and Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) shocked the chip world with a joint announcement this morning: a multi-generational collaboration to build custom AI-powered chips for both data centers and PCs. Intel will manufacture new x86 CPUs and SoCs that integrate NVIDIA GPU chiplets, while NVIDIA will invest $5 billion into Intel at $23.28 per share.
NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang called it a “fusion of two world-class platforms,” as the two giants aim to power the “next era of computing.” The alliance is a clear signal that AI infrastructure is the next frontier, and both companies are doubling down to lead.
Barfresh (NASDAQ:BRFH) is blending in growth, announcing a strategic acquisition of Ohio-based Arps Dairy for $1.6 million. The deal provides the frozen beverage company with a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, set to dramatically expand production capacity and reduce third-party costs.
The move has prompted the company to raise its FY2025 revenue guidance to $14.5–$15.5 million, with preliminary 2026 revenue guidance now expected to reach up to $35 million. CEO Riccardo Delle Coste called the acquisition “a transformational step,” giving the company a strong foundation for profitable growth.
89bio (NASDAQ:ETNB) shares soared after announcing a deal to be acquired by Roche in a transaction valued at up to $3.5 billion. The biopharma firm’s lead asset, pegozafermin, is viewed as a potential best-in-class therapy for MASH (formerly NASH).
The deal includes a $14.50 per share cash offer plus up to $6 in contingent value rights (CVRs). The 79% premium signals strong strategic value for Roche, which aims to strengthen its cardiometabolic and liver disease pipeline.
