With REE P7 trucks, Mission Mobile aims to deploy the next generation of mobile healthcare units this year with enhanced efficiency, adaptability and sustainability for rural communities across America.
Mission Mobile, one of the world's largest mobile health companies, has redefined healthcare delivery through innovative medical solutions for at-risk communities. Over the past 5 years, Mission Mobile has created over 200 mobile health programs in 42 states and Canada to help patients and provide on-demand healthcare where traditional treatment is restricted.
'Our clients are mission-driven to efficiently deliver healthcare to every corner of our country,' said Travis LeFever, CEO of Mission Mobile Medical.

Built with a technology-first mindset, the P7-C sets a new standard in safety and performance while offering flexibility to build cargo trucks, work trucks, medical vehicles and more.
'Collaborating with Mission Mobile Medical highlights the unique capabilities of REE's software-defined technology,' said Tali Miller, Chief Business Officer of REE. 'Our modular and customizable chassis enables purpose-built solutions to meet specific needs, and Mission Mobile Medical intends to utilize it to improve the lives of millions of people. In addition, our robust national dealer network with 80 points of service will allow these mobile health vehicles to be supported close to where medical services are being delivered. This collaboration demonstrates how zero-emission vehicles can provide essential services efficiently and at scale, creating positive impact for our communities.'
This approach represents a convergence of cutting-edge engineering and healthcare innovation, enabling the development of next-generation health programs that are not only environmentally friendly but also equipped to meet our Nation's need for convenient Preventative and Primary care in a rapidly changing healthcare landscape.

Could a Quantum Computing Bubble Be About to Pop? History Offers a Clear Answer
Key Points IonQ, Rigetti Computing, D-Wave Quantum, and Quantum Computing have reached valuation levels well beyond those seen during prior stock market bubbles. Each of these companies has recently raised capital through a series of equity offerings and stock issuances. These moves could suggest that the valuation levels for these businesses are not only abnormally high, but unsustainable. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Last summer, companies such as IonQ (NYSE: IONQ), Rigetti Computing (NASDAQ: RGTI), D-Wave Quantum (NYSE: QBTS), and Quantum Computing (NASDAQ: QUBT) were unknown penny stocks. However, as quantum computing steadily made its way toward center stage in the artificial intelligence (AI) realm, each of these companies witnessed meteoric rises in their share prices. Over the last 12 months, IonQ stock has blasted higher by 517%, while Rigetti, D-Wave, and Quantum Computing have experienced surges of at least 1,500% as of this writing (July 21). With valuations reaching historically high levels, could investors be on the verge of witnessing a quantum computing bubble bursting? Is quantum computing in a bubble? The chart below illustrates valuation trends among popular quantum computing stocks on a price-to-sales (P/S) basis. As I outlined in a prior article, the quantum computing stocks above are trading at far higher P/S multiples compared to levels seen during the dot-com and COVID-19 stock bubbles. For example, during the internet boom in the late 1990s, stocks such as Amazon, Cisco, and Microsoft experienced peak P/S ratios in the range of 30x and 40x. Taking this a step further, popular COVID stocks such as Zoom Communications and Peloton saw P/S multiples top out at 124x and 20x, respectively. The big theme here is that IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave, and Quantum Computing are each trading for valuation multiples that could be seen as historically high, even when compared to prior bubble events. With that said, other AI companies that are also exploring quantum computing -- such as Nvidia, Amazon, Alphabet, and Microsoft -- currently trade for much more reasonable valuation multiples when compared to the companies in the chart above. For this reason, I do not think the entire quantum computing landscape is at risk of experiencing a bubble-bursting event. However, IonQ and its peers have been dropping some breadcrumbs in recent months that lead me to think the smaller quantum computing players could be on the verge of a harsh sell-off. What's going on under the hood with quantum computing stocks? After some digging into certain filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), I think IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave, and Quantum Computing may be trying to signal some important things to investors: In February, IonQ announced that it planned to raise up to $500 million through a series of stock issuances. The company doubled down on its capital-raising ambitions more recently, offering 14,165,708 shares at a price of $55.49 -- raising nearly $1 billion in the process. In June, Rigetti raised $350 million in capital after completing an at-the-market (ATM) equity offering. Between June 11 and June 27, D-Wave Quantum raised $400 million through an ATM offering. Of note: This followed a prior raise of $150 million that occurred in January. In late June, Quantum Computing raised $200 million following the issuance of 14 million shares at an average price of $14.25. What's really going on here? With each of these quantum computing stocks trading near all-time highs, it appears to me that management is looking to take advantage of frothy market conditions. Quantum computing is a research-heavy, capital-intensive industry. Management at IonQ and its peers surely understand this, and so I see these capital raises as a calculated move to capitalize on inflated, overstretched valuations. Should you invest in quantum computing stocks? To me, any hint of a bubble surrounding IonQ and its smaller peers may already be in the process of bursting. Under the surface, the various stock issuances and equity offerings annotated above could suggest that management does not believe current price levels are sustainable. By using the dot-com and COVID bubbles as benchmarks, history would suggest that a major correction could be on the horizon for these small quantum computing stocks. Issuing stock to raise funds is not sustainable in the long run. Furthermore, consistently diluting shareholders through these offerings could call into question how these companies are allocating capital. In my eyes, if investors are seeking exposure to the quantum computing industry, they are best off exploring more diversified opportunities in big tech as opposed to the smaller, more speculative players analyzed in this piece.

This Warren Buffett Stock Is Reportedly Contemplating a Huge Move
Key Points Kraft is reportedly looking at splitting up its grocery business. One entity may focus on sauces and spreads, while the other would include processed meats and cheeses. 10 stocks we like better than Kraft Heinz › Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A)(NYSE: BRK.B) holds many prominent household names in its portfolio. But not all of them have been doing well in recent years. A great example of that is Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ: KHC). Despite being a big name in the food industry, it has been a brutal investment to hold -- its shares are down 17% over the past five years. The business isn't doing well, growth is stagnant, and investors are worried about the future as consumers pivot to healthier food choices. And the company is reportedly considering a breakup of its business. Here's why that could be a good thing for investors. Kraft Heinz to split its business? According to The Wall Street Journal, Kraft is looking at spinning off a sizable chunk of its business, which would be worth around $20 billion. Currently, the stock's total market cap is approximately $34 billion. While the details are still not exactly known as to which brands might be in which business, the company is reportedly looking to have one business that focuses on spreads and sauces, while the other is likely to include processed meats, cheeses, and other core products. It could take weeks before details are sorted out and there's also the possibility that a breakup doesn't end up happening. But with the stock and company performing so poorly in recent years, a shake-up could be in order. The company's sauces and spreads, for instance, which are staples in households around the world, may have better growth potential than a business that's focused on processed food, which has been associated with health risks. The company has not been going in the right direction Kraft's top line hasn't given investors much reason to be optimistic. While it's been relatively steady in recent years, at around $26 billion in annual revenue, that's not terribly exciting for growth investors, especially given that many of the company's brands are synonymous with less-than-healthy eating. Forward-looking investors know that this downward trend may persist in the future as consumers eat healthier. And while the stock offers a high dividend yield of 5.5% today, that may not be enough of a reason to own it, especially if the stock's losses more than offset the dividend income. Plus, the danger is that if the company's top and bottom lines decline in the future, the dividend may not prove to be sustainable. For both dividend and growth investors, there are plenty of concerns around Kraft these days, which explain why the food stock hasn't been doing well. Should you buy Kraft Heinz stock today? Kraft's stock looks cheap, trading at 13 times its trailing earnings. But with many question marks around its business, the safest option is to take a wait-and-see approach. A spinoff could open up a good opportunity for investors, by splitting off segments and brands that may have more potential to grow in the long run. However, until the full details come out about a spinoff and what brands each business may have, it would be difficult to assess just how attractive the opportunity might be. And you would still need to wait until after the spinoff takes place and then invest in the specific business you want, to ensure you aren't still having a position in the entire company as it stands today. For now, I'd hold off on buying Kraft's stock. It appears evident that a change in strategy may be inevitable, whether it's a breakup of the business or some other move, and you may be better off waiting before making any investment decision on Kraft. Should you invest $1,000 in Kraft Heinz right now? Before you buy stock in Kraft Heinz, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Kraft Heinz wasn't one of them.

ROSEN, A LEADING INVESTOR RIGHTS LAW FIRM, Encourages Luminar Technologies, Inc. Investors to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline in Securities Class Action
NEW YORK, July 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit on behalf of purchasers of securities of Luminar Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: LAZR) between March 20, 2025 and May 14, 2025, both dates inclusive (the 'Class Period'). A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than September 22, 2025. SO WHAT: If you purchased Luminar securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. What to do next: To join the Luminar class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for more information. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than September 22, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers. DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Austin Russell ('Russell'), Luminar's President, CEO and Chairman of the Board, was engaged in undisclosed conduct that would make him the subject of an inquiry by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors; (2) this conduct created material risk that Russell would be released form his positions at Luminar; (3) Luminar's loss of Russell as an employee would then create material risk of adversely affecting Luminar's business by making it more difficult to compete with other market participants, manage R&D activities, and retain existing customers or cultivate new ones. Further, negative public perception and negative news related to Russell could adversely affect Luminar's brand relationships with customers, or standing in the industry; (4) accordingly, Luminar had no reasonable basis to provide and/or maintain Luminar's financial guidance; and (5) as a result, defendants' public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages. To join the Luminar class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for more information. No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff. Follow us for updates on LinkedIn: on Twitter: or on Facebook: Attorney Advertising. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. ——————————- Contact Information: Laurence Rosen, Esq. Phillip Kim, Esq.
