Dr. Andrea Adams-Miller Warns Boards Face Rising Governance Risk as AI Outpaces Human Judgment

12/23/2025 07:51 PM • Dr. Andrea Adams-Miller warns that rapid AI expansion in companies has created a governance gap that boards have not adequately addressed. As AI systems guide critical business decisions faster than leaders can evaluate them, boards face increased risk. Recent cases at Amazon and Zillow highlight governance failures when oversight lags behind technology. Adams-Miller recommends boards implement clear human ownership, plain-language explanations, defined pause points, and communication readiness for AI-driven decisions.

GSpD - Set a fresh record, stock price increased 2.73%
AMZN - Company cited as a cautionary example of governance failure; leadership had to shut down an internal AI hiring tool after it demonstrated bias against female candidates, indicating inadequate review and testing processes.

U.S. FDA Approves Agios’ AQVESME™ (mitapivat) for the Treatment of Anemia in Adults with Alpha- or Beta-Thalassemia

12/23/2025 07:45 PM • The FDA has approved Agios Pharmaceuticals' AQVESME (mitapivat), an oral pyruvate kinase activator, for treating anemia in adults with alpha- or beta-thalassemia. AQVESME is the only FDA-approved medicine for both non-transfusion-dependent and transfusion-dependent forms of the disease. The approval is based on Phase 3 ENERGIZE and ENERGIZE-T trials showing significant improvements in hemoglobin levels, fatigue, and transfusion burden. The drug will be available in late January 2026 under a REMS program due to hepatocellular injury risks observed in clinical trials.

AMJB - Set a fresh record, stock price increased 1.90%
AGIO - FDA approval of AQVESME represents a significant milestone for the company, establishing it as the only approved treatment for both transfusion-dependent and non-transfusion-dependent thalassemia. The approval is based on successful Phase 3 trials meeting primary and secondary endpoints. However, the positive sentiment is tempered by the requirement for a restrictive REMS program due to hepatocellular injury risks observed in 5 patients during trials, which may impact market adoption and commercial success.

Summary Notice of Pendency and Proposed Settlement of Stockholder Derivative Actions

12/23/2025 04:43 PM • Compass Minerals has agreed to settle derivative lawsuits alleging that company directors and officers breached fiduciary duties by issuing false statements about magnesium chloride-based fire retardants and overstating U.S. Forest Service contract prospects.

The neutral sentiment reflects both the resolution of legal risk and the underlying governance concerns that prompted the lawsuit.
