Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBA#NASDAQ">WBA</a>) shares are falling in extended trading Thursday after the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b43355741/walgreens-boots-alliance-suspends-quarterly-dividend-as-company-continues-disciplined-execution-ag">suspended its quarterly dividend</a>.
What Happened: After the market close on Thursday, Walgreens announced its board is suspending its cash dividend as management continues to evaluate its capital allocation policy as part of a longer-term turnaround strategy.
The suspended dividend is expected to help strengthen the company&#8217;s balance sheet by reducing debt over time and improving free cash flow.
&#8220;The company&#8217;s cash needs over the next several years, including with respect to litigation and debt refinancing, were important considerations as part of the decision to suspend the dividend,&#8221; the company said. 
&#8220;WBA leadership remains focused on successfully executing against its strategic priorities and maintaining financial discipline, which it believes will deliver sustained value creation over the long term.&#8221;
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy WBA Stock</h1>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Walgreens — be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. 
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading — either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
WBA Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/wba">Walgreens shares</a> were down 7.77% after-hours, trading at $10.52 at the time of publication Thursday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

&#8220;We also grew total sales 16.9% compared to the prior-year period, driven in part by the 13 new stores we opened in the third quarter and the 39 new stores we have opened year-to-date through our third fiscal quarter,&#8221; Hazen added. 
Outlook:&nbsp;Boot Barn raised its fiscal 2025 GAAP EPS guidance from a range of&nbsp;$5.30 to $5.60 to a range of $5.81 to $5.90, versus the&nbsp;$5.76&nbsp;estimate, and raised its fiscal 2025 sales guidance from a range of $1.87 billion to $1.91 billion to&nbsp;a range of $1.91 billion to $1.92 billion, versus the $1.91 billion estimate.

As AI develops, a shift in expectations for electricity demand is becoming more evident. The emergence of Chinese artificial intelligence company DeepSeek has led to uncertainty about future electricity consumption, impacting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/utilities">utility and power stocks. </a>
Investors in the traditional power and utilities sector are facing uncertainty after riding last year's wave of soaring demand projections. The rapid expansion of energy-intensive data centers—critical to AI and other tech innovations—had fueled a surge in power stocks. However, the question mark on this forecast has brought <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">power-focused ETFs</a> back into the limelight for the wrong reasons. Although experts believe this is most likely a temporary panic, here are 3 ETFs that may be less sensitive to short-term chaos:
Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLU#NYSE">XLU</a>) 
XLU provides exposure to major U.S. utility companies, including American Electric Power Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AEP#NASDAQ">AEP</a>) and Southern Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SO#NYSE">SO</a>). The ETF is a popular choice for investors seeking stable returns and dividend income from regulated utilities, which are less sensitive to short-term market disruptions. The expense ratio is 0.09%.
Invesco S&amp;P 500 Equal Weight Utilities ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RSPU#NYSE">RSPU</a>)
Traditional utility ETFs are market-cap weighted. On the contrary, this ETF assigns equal weight to its holdings, which allows the investor to spread out risks. It includes companies involved in electricity production, transmission, and renewable energy, making it a potential hedge against volatility in the energy sector. The expense ratio is 0.4%.
First Trust NASDAQ Clean Edge Smart Grid Infrastructure Index Fund (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRID#NASDAQ">GRID</a>)
GRID focuses on companies engaged in smart grid technology, electrification infrastructure, and power transmission. As the U.S. accelerates its shift to renewable energy, investments in smart grids and electricity storage could benefit from long-term demand growth, regardless of AI-related fluctuations.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The AI Revolution and Its Impact on Power Demand</h3>
The DeepSeek issue challenges long-standing projections about electricity demand driven by AI data centers. DeepSeek&#8217;s AI model, reportedly uses &#8220;10 to 40 times less energy&#8221; than similar U.S. models, according to a <a href="https://www.eenews.net/articles/game-changer-what-deepseek-ai-means-for-electricity/">report </a>by E&amp;E News. 
Utilities and natural gas companies, which had been soaring on expectations of rising AI-driven electricity demand, suffered steep losses. According to Reuters, independent power provider Constellation Energy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CEG#NASDAQ">CEG</a>) plunged by about 20%, Vistra (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VST#NYSE">VST</a>) dropped 30%, and Talen Energy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLN#NASDAQ">TLN</a>) fell 22% after news of DeepSeek&#8217;s advancements hit.
While some experts believe this could reset expectations for power growth, others argue that broader electrification trends, including U.S. manufacturing expansion and cryptocurrency mining, will keep electricity demand high. 
&#8220;Overall electricity demand is still going to surge because other major drivers — particularly U.S. manufacturing and cryptocurrency — are not going to be affected by DeepSeek,&#8221; said Betsy Soehren Jones, managing director at West Monroe, as reported by E&amp;E News.
DeepSeek&#8217;s accomplishment could even cast doubt on nuclear power demand, which tech companies see as a key source of clean energy for AI development. Investors have expected high premiums for nuclear power, over $100/MWh, but new efficiency gains may change that, Jefferies said in a client note, <a href="https://www.argusmedia.com/en/news-and-insights/latest-market-news/2652323-deepseek-undermines-ai-power-demand-forecasts">according </a>to Argus Media. 
Lower AI data center power demand could also weaken support for next-generation small modular reactors (SMRs), backed by companies like Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) and Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>).

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What BofA Says About the Power and Utility Sector</h3>
A recent Bank of America (BofA) report suggests that the power and utility sector remains resilient despite the short-term market reaction to DeepSeek&#8217;s AI model. The report maintains a Buy rating on Constellation Energy with a revised price target of $366 and a Neutral rating on Vistra with a target of $183.
BofA analysts see the sell-off as an overreaction and expect data center demand to stay strong once the turbulence subsides.
The report describes DeepSeek as "more evolutionary than revolutionary" and that AI-driven data centers will continue to drive power consumption.
Additionally, BofA notes that supply and demand pressures in the energy market remain tight due to industrial expansion and electrification. The need for stable energy sources like nuclear power remains essential.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Will DeepSeek Really Change The Power Scenario?</h3>
While DeepSeek's AI model has introduced uncertainty in the short term, some analysts believe the sell-off in power stocks may be &#8220;short-sighted and short-lived,&#8221; as energy economist Ed Hirs noted, per a Reuters report. Even with more efficient AI models, demand for electricity is likely to rise due to continued digitalization and electrification.
All said, despite the sharp reaction in the market, broader trends in electrification and technology-driven growth suggest that electricity consumption will keep rising.

Helix, a decentralized exchange built on Injective (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/inj/usd">INJ</a>), has launched an AI Index Perpetual Market, a product that allows investors to gain on-chain exposure to both AI-focused crypto tokens <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-artificial-intelligence-stocks">and traditional equities.</a>
This launch marks a significant step in bringing traditional financial instruments into the decentralized finance (DeFi) space by offering exposure to a curated selection of ten AI tokens and six AI equities, such as NVIDIA (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>).
The Helix AI Index futures market is designed to help investors track portfolio performance in a sector that is blending both tech and crypto. 
The AI index ensures that no single asset dominates, and by diversifying between both crypto tokens and traditional equities, the risk of poor performance from any one asset is reduced. 
Real-time updates and historical data also enables investors to more accurately track trends and inform their investment decisions.
Meredith Pitkoff, CEO and Co-founder of Stork Labs said, &#8220;Products like the Helix AI Index are what decentralized finance was conceived for," adding that, "Collaborating on this index is also our first foray in creating a product that combines equity and crypto markets together into one aggregate index.&#8221;
The Stork Oracle powers the Helix AI Index, which is adjusted on a monthly basis to reflect current market positions. 
Stork initially determines the index's value from data gathered from centralized market's crypto tokens, then assigns the price based on each asset's market capitalization. 
The index's weights will then automatically rebalance based on real-time market dynamics.

Speaking with Benzinga, Injective CEO Eric Chen said the Helix AI Index shows "what Helix is built to do—democratize access to sophisticated financial instruments." 
He also stated that this launch enables "borderless, permissionless access for investors" to traditional equities for the first time.
When asked about the challenges of institutional adoption of on-chain products, he responded that &#8220;the evolving political and regulatory landscape is creating new opportunities for institutions to engage with on-chain assets." 
He also emphasized the need for more transparent and globally accessible financial products, adding that "platforms like Helix will be instrumental in bridging the gap between legacy finance and the next generation of digital markets."
Chen also commented on the potential for decentralized perpetual markets to compete with traditional financial instruments. 
He stated that liquidity fragmentation is one of DeFi&#8217;s biggest hurdles, and that decentralized markets need to "evolve toward more shared liquidity models, enabling deeper markets and more efficient trading." 
He added that, "Injective is poised to lead—by offering seamless cross-chain liquidity and interoperability.&#8221; 
This has been helped by Injective's native EVM integration, allowing EVM developers to tap into the shared liquidity model that exists within the Injective network.
Helix has witnessed tremendous growth in 2024, and is now consistently ranked as one of the largest perpetual DEXs on the market, with an average of $2 billion in volume across 100 million trades every month.
The listed tokens and equities will launch with the following weights:&nbsp;
