Schizophrenia affects over 24 million people globally, but when it comes to treatments, they fall short. Either they focus on the symptoms rather than the cause or create too many adverse side effects which can lead to people stopping taking them.
That may change thanks to Reviva Pharmaceuticals Inc. (RVPH) and Brilaroxazine, its once-daily, serotonin-dopamine signaling modulator for treating schizophrenia. What makes it promising is that trials have shown it to improve broad-spectrum efficacy and treatment adherence with reduced side effects in both acute and stable schizophrenia patients.
The company has planned meetings with the FDA to discuss the path forward to approve the drug in Q4, and a New Drug Application submission targeted for Q2 2026. To learn more about Reviva, click here.

Yesterday: U.S. indexes closed lower Monday, with the major benchmarks pulling back after strong winning streaks — most notably the S&P 500, which had risen nine of the previous ten sessions. Equities were pressured by climbing 10-year Treasury yields, though the tech sector stood out as the lone gainer, supported by strength in semiconductor stocks. Attention now shifts to Wednesday’s Federal Reserve meeting, where markets widely expect (90%) a quarter-point rate cut, bringing the fed funds target range to 3.5%–3.75%. Lastly, Nvidia rallied after the market close on news that President Donald Trump approved H200 chip sales to China, which grants the U.S. government a substantial share of the proceeds.

MARKET HISTORY
On This Day In 1999…
VA Linux Systems made a historic debut on the Nasdaq, pricing its shares at $30. The stock opened to a huge demand, surging nearly 700% to close around $240 on its first day of trading — making it one of the largest IPO gains in U.S. history. The spectacular rise turned VA Linux into a near-billion-dollar company overnight, capturing the exuberance of the dot-com boom and highlighting the extraordinary volatility of tech IPOs. However, the euphoria was short-lived, and within a year, the stock had plunged dramatically, serving as a cautionary tale of hype-driven market speculation.
