Constellation‘s Calpine Deal Clears Texas Regulatory Review
The approval is progress in Constellation's plans to combine the nation's largest zero-emissions nuclear fleet with Calpine's premier portfolio of low-emission natural gas and geothermal assets, resulting in a coast-to-coast energy company capable of supporting growing demand for around-the-clock, sustainable power.
'With this approval from the Texas PUC, we're one step closer to creating the nation's premier platform for reliable, clean energy, powering families and businesses across America,' said Joe Dominguez, president and CEO of Constellation. 'This combination strengthens our ability to serve the growing needs of our customers and communities – especially in high-demand markets like Texas – while continuing to lead the nation's transition toward a more reliable, secure and clean energy future. Most important, we're combining two strong teams with a shared commitment to operational excellence, sustainability and supporting healthy, clean and growing communities.'
With approval from the PUCT secured, the transaction now awaits clearance from the New York State Public Service Commission, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the Department of Justice, along with other customary closing conditions. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Mullen Automotive Rebrands To Bollinger Innovations
Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) stock dropped on Thursday as it announced it would officially change its name to Bollinger Innovations, effective July 28, 2025. On the same day, the company's common stock will begin trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the new ticker symbol BINI. The CUSIP number for the stock will remain unchanged. The company confirmed that this name and ticker update will not affect its legal structure or business operations, and shareholders do not need to and Chairman David Michery said the move represents more than a rebranding. 'We are bringing our products and brands together under one strong and unified identity, ready to service the commercial vehicle industry.' Last week, Mullen announced restructuring plans by merging its operations with subsidiary Bollinger Motors, rebranding as Bollinger Innovations, and updating its Nasdaq ticker symbol before August 15, 2025. The company shared plans to centralize commercial vehicle operations in Oak Park, Michigan, and consolidate all sales, marketing, and service under the Bollinger brand to streamline operations and boost financial efficiency. Since early 2025, Mullen has cut 155 jobs and expects to save at least $35 million annually. Executives said the move will eliminate redundant roles and focus resources on its core Class 1, 3, and 4 electric commercial vehicle offerings, including the Mullen ONE, Mullen THREE, and Bollinger B4. Mullen stock has plunged 100% year-to-date as it grappled with financial losses and a lack of consistent growth in the competitive EV market. In 2025, it completed three reverse stock splits—on February 18, April 11, and June 2—to meet Nasdaq's $1 minimum bid price requirement. Each split reduced the number of outstanding shares. Additional headwinds could come from the U.S. regulatory landscape. The U.S. House of Representatives passed President Donald Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill,' eliminating the $7,500 tax credit for new U.S.-made EVs. The tax credit will expire on September 30, leading some automakers to start raising electric vehicle prices in anticipation. However, the company also has its share of promises. On June 3, Mullen announced plans to relaunch its FIVE RS EV Crossover in Germany this December, after completing 800-volt battery testing in Munich. The company will begin on-road testing next and plans to expand sales to the EU, UAE, and South Africa in 2026. To support international growth, Mullen partnered with German firm FPF to ensure high-quality production before entering the U.S. market. On June 25, Mullen revealed it would begin accepting Bitcoin and TRUMP Coin for EV purchases, aiming to attract crypto-enthusiasts and politically engaged consumers while boosting brand exposure through meme coin culture. Price Action: MULN shares are trading lower by 17.80% to $0.062 at last check Thursday. Photo via Shutterstock UNLOCKED: 5 NEW TRADES EVERY WEEK.

Labaton Keller Sucharow LLP Files Securities Class Action Against Fiserv, Inc. and Certain of Its Executives
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Labaton Keller Sucharow LLP ('Labaton') has filed a securities class action lawsuit (the 'Action') on behalf of its client the City of Hollywood Police Officers' Retirement System ('Hollywood Police') against Fiserv, Inc. ('Fiserv' or the 'Company') (NYSE: FI) and certain of its executives (collectively, 'Defendants'). The Action, which is captioned City of Hollywood Police Officers' Retirement System v. Fiserv, Inc., No. 25-cv- 06094 (S.D.N.Y.), asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder on behalf of all persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired Fiserv common stock between July 24, 2024 and July 22, 2025, inclusive (the 'Class Period'). Fiserv is a global provider of transaction processing software for banks and retail merchants. Fiserv's flagship product and most important growth driver is Clover, which provides merchants with a payment 'gateway' to facilitate the secure processing of credit, debit, and mobile payment transactions on behalf of financial institutions and their customers. The Action alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants misled investors by failing to disclose that: (a) due to cost issues and other problems with its older Payeezy platform, Fiserv forced Payeezy merchants to migrate to its Clover platform; (b) Clover's revenue growth and gross payment volume ('GPV'), the total monetary value of transactions processed through Clover, were temporarily and unsustainably boosted by these forced conversions, which concealed a slowdown in new merchant business; (c) shortly after these conversions, a significant portion of former Payeezy merchants switched to competing solutions due to Clover's high pricing, significant down time, and systematic compatibility issues; (d) as a result of these merchant losses, Clover's GPV growth was significantly slowing, and its revenue growth was unsustainable; and (e) based on the foregoing, Fiserv's positive Class Period statements about Clover's growth strategies, competition, attrition, GPV growth, and business prospects were materially false and misleading. The market began to learn the truth about Defendants' fraud on April 24, 2025. On that date, Fiserv shocked investors by reporting Clover GPV growth of only 8 percent for the first quarter of 2025, a material stepdown from 2024 GPV rates of between 14 and 17 percent. The Company attributed this slowing growth to lower 2025 transaction volumes from Payeezy merchants who had converted to Clover. On this news, Fiserv stock dropped 18.5 percent, closing at $176.90 per share on April 24, 2025. Then, on May 15, 2025, Fiserv disappointed investors by disclosing that GPV growth deceleration would continue throughout 2025. On this news, Fiserv stock dropped 16.2 percent, closing at $159.13 per share on May 15, 2025. Finally, on July 23, 2025, Fiserv lowered the top end of its full-year organic growth guidance range and confirmed that its quarterly organic revenue in the Merchant segment had decelerated to 9 percent year-over-year from 11 percent in the previous quarter. On this news, Fiserv stock dropped 13.9 percent, closing at $143.00 per share on July 23, 2025. If you purchased or acquired Fiserv common stock during the Class Period and were damaged thereby, you are a member of the 'Class' and may be able to seek appointment as Lead Plaintiff. Lead Plaintiff motion papers must be filed no later than September 22, 2025. The Lead Plaintiff is a court-appointed representative for absent members of the Class. You do not need to seek appointment as Lead Plaintiff to share in any Class recovery in this action. If you are a Class member and there is a recovery for the Class, you can share in that recovery as an absent Class member. You may retain counsel of your choice to represent you in this action. If you would like to consider serving as Lead Plaintiff or have any questions about this lawsuit, you may contact Connor C. Boehme, Esq. of Labaton at (212) 907-0780, or via email at cboehme@ You can view a copy of the Complaint online here.
