Globavend Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: GVH) - Globavend Holdings Limited saw its company shares close last week's trading session at $1.25, marking a 13% increase. Back in March, the company disclosed its agreement with Square Gate Capital Master Fund, LLC – Series 1 (“Square Gate”), entailing a US$20,000,000 equity purchase agreement along with a corresponding registration rights agreement. Under this arrangement, Globavend retains the option, but not the obligation, to sell up to US$20,000,000 worth of its shares to Square Gate over the next 36 months, subject to specific conditions and limitations. Square Gate, on the other hand, is obligated to purchase the shares at a price determined by predefined formulas and subject to certain dollar caps. Wai Yiu Yau, CEO of Globavend, emphasized the significance of this equity line facility as it furnishes a robust long-term foundation for expanding operations, diversifying e-commerce logistics services, bolstering business presence in key regions like Australia, New Zealand, and Hong Kong, and seizing potential business opportunities. He reiterated the company's commitment to delivering strong financial performance in 2024 and beyond. As we await further updates from the company, we'll be closely monitoring the resistance level break at $1.30.

Yield10 Bioscience, Inc. (NASDAQ: YTEN) - Yield10 Bioscience, Inc.'s company shares closed last week's trading session at $5.60, registering a modest increase of just under 2% following a 1-24 reverse split, with the float now standing at 600k. In early April, the company filed its annual report, revealing that it had exercised its option for a global exclusive License to the Omega-3 Camelina technology from Rothamsted, with expectations to finalize the Commercial License Agreement in the second quarter of 2024. The EPA8 omega-3 trait allows for the accumulation of EPA up to 20% of the fatty acid composition in the Omega-3 Camelina seed oil, while the DHA1 omega-3 trait enables the accumulation of EPA up to 10% of the fatty acid composition alongside DHA at up to 10% of the fatty acid composition in the DHA1 Omega-3 Camelina seed oil. Given the significance of herbicide tolerance in Camelina for on-farm performance, the company is actively breeding HT traits into the omega-3 Camelina varieties to develop second-generation varieties suitable for large acreage production. As we await updates from the company, we'll be monitoring closely for a potential resistance level break at $6.00, while also keeping an eye on the $5.30 area to provide support.
