The Grail deal "has kept a lot of investors out of the stock" TD Cowen analyst Dan Brennan said. The company's shares have lost about 60% of their value since completing the Grail deal in 2021. Illumina shares closed at $200.53 on the Nasdaq on Friday. Icahn has said he wants former Illumina CEO Jay Flatley to return. He had secured more than twice the number of shareholder votes than his challenger received in the proxy vote, which could have given him enough legitimacy to hang on.

June 11 (Reuters) - Illumina (ILMN.O) Chief Executive Officer Francis DeSouza stepped down on Sunday, the gene-sequencing machine maker said in a statement, ending a battle with activist investor Carl Icahn in which the company's chairman left the company earlier this year. Illumina said it named Senior Vice President and General Counsel Charles Dadswell as interim CEO. Icahn in a tweet said he is happy with the recent changes at Illumina and considers them a "very positive occurrence." Icahn has said he wants former Illumina CEO Jay Flatley to return. Vicki Hollub, for instance, remains Occidental Petroleum's (OXY.N) CEO after the company cut a deal with Icahn over board seats in 2020 and after Icahn cashed out two years later.

Occidental Petroleum's CEO hit back at California politicians over plans to fine Big Oil firms. California lawmakers unveiled plans to charge oil firms for their huge profits on high gas prices. "California's price gouging penalty is simple – either Big Oil reins in the profits and prices, or they'll pay a penalty," Newsom said. The average California gas price was $4.665 as of Wednesday, according to AAA. Gas prices have seen a modest pullback in step with a recent drop in oil prices, thanks to President Joe Biden's decision to release record amounts of crude from US reserves to help curb inflation.
Berkshire benefited from higher interest rates and a stronger US dollar. It also revealed the billion-dollar hit to its insurance business from Hurricane Ian, and the positive impact of higher interest rates and a stronger US dollar on its operations. The discrepancy suggests it raised its stake to about 170 million shares last quarter. It owned about 908 million shares of the iPhone maker at the end of December, and purchased nearly 4 million more shares in the second quarter of this year. The US central bank's rate increases boosted the amount of interest that Berkshire earned on its cash and Treasury bills.
