President Donald Trump named Mark Uyeda, a Republican member of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), acting chair of the agency.
What Happened: The White House <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/designation-of-chairmen-and-acting-chairmen/">confirmed</a> Uyedas&#8217;s role as acting chair of the agency. 
Trump picked former SEC Commissioner Paul Atkins to oversee the SEC permanently, but Congress must approve the nomination.

Uyeda temporarily takes over duties from Gary Gensler, former President Joe Biden&#8216;s SEC chair, who prosecuted cryptocurrency-related companies like Coinbase and Ripple throughout his tenure. 
Gensler also advocated for more cryptocurrency regulation ahead of his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/42120607/gary-gensler-to-step-down-as-sec-chair-on-trumps-inauguration-day">departure from the SEC</a>. 
Uyeda&#8217;s legal career began at Kirkpatrick &amp; Lockhart, which is now K&amp;L Gates. 
In 2004, then-Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger appointed Uyeda as Chief Advisor to the California Corporations Commissioner, the state&#8217;s securities regulator.
By 2006, he joined the SEC and was eventually named commissioner on June 30, 2022.
He also <a href="https://www.sifma.org/people/mark-t-uyeda/?utm_source=chatgpt.com">served</a> as counsel to commissioner Atkins.
Why It Matters: A Trump appointment to the SEC will likely influence the agency&#8217;s policies regarding cryptocurrency regulation, Reuters reports.
Trump&#8217;s business dealings are heavily tied to cryptocurrency. On Friday, he debuted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43082005/market-to-seek-further-information-on-utilization-of-80-trump-token-supply-says-bernstein">his own meme coin</a> called Official Trump (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>) and, before that, his family helped launch World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a decentralized finance platform.
According to the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/01/17/us/politics/trump-conflicts-of-interest.html">New York Times</a>, citing 2024 financial disclosures, Trump owns up to $5 million worth of Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>). The new SEC is expected to loosen regulations on crypto and implement new guidelines that could bolster the value of Ethereum, Bitcoin (CRYPTP: BTC) and tokens at WLFI.

The cryptocurrency market experienced a turbulent day of trading on Monday, triggered by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43085738/trumps-crypto-silence-inauguration-omission-sparks-questions-after-history-of-mixed-signals">President Donald Trump&#8216;s inauguration. </a>
High expectations for a crypto-friendly presidency were dashed when Trump&#8217;s inaugural address did not include any mention of digital currencies. As a result, tokens suffered sharp price drops and substantial liquidations across the market.
The market had rallied significantly in the days leading up to the inauguration. But it fell almost immediately when it was clear that Trump&#8217;s speech &#8212; his second inaugural address &#8212; would not include the topic.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), which had been riding a wave of optimism ahead of the inauguration, dropped from $106,000 to $101,000 during Trump's speech before stabilizing around $103,000. 
Among altcoins, Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) — central to the weekend's Trump-affiliated meme coin frenzy — fell nearly 10% from its lifetime high.
The newly launched TRUMP (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>) meme coin, released on Friday, saw an immediate plunge. It fell 30% from $50 during Trump's address.
Though it partially recovered, it remained down over 44% at last check Monday, trading at around $39.88. 
A meme coin inspired by First Lady Melania Trump (CRYPTO: MELANIA), which launched a day after TRUMP, fared worse. It plummeted 46% before rebounding slightly.

According to <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/LiquidationData">data </a>from CoinGlass, the volatility wiped out over $700 million in leveraged crypto positions on Monday alone. Nearly $500 million-worth of those liquidations came from traders betting on price increases.
Including the selloff that began overnight before the inauguration, the total liquidation across digital assets surpassed $1.2 billion in 24 hours—the largest leverage flush this year.
The wild swings of the meme coins has also attracted criticism from key political figures. 
Nic Carter, a founding partner of a crypto investment firm, called the meme coin launch "preposterous," while Congresswoman Maxine Waters criticized it for "tainting the crypto industry" and exposing the need for proper regulation. 
This has led to concern for advocates within the industry that the volatile meme coins may hurt the public perception of legitimate digital assets and push regulators to act <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43083490/melania-rise-and-trumps-fall-signal-crypto-mainstreaming-and-potential-blow-to-tradfi-experts-note">aggressively against digital assets.</a>

American Express Pays $108 Million To Settle Deceptive Marketing Charges
The U.S. Department of Justice announced on Thursday that American Express Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>) agreed to a $108.7 million settlement to resolve allegations of violating the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/01/43041511/american-express-settles-1087-million-compliance-case-with-justice-department">and Enforcement Act.&nbsp;</a>
The Department of Justice <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/american-express-agrees-pay-1087m-settle-allegations-deceptive-marketing-and-dummy-account">accused</a> the financial giant of deceptive marketing and falsified record-keeping between 2014 and 2021.
From 2014 to 2017, American Express allegedly misled small business customers regarding credit card rewards, fees and credit checks and submitted false income information.
Additionally, employees bypassed legal requirements by entering fabricated Employer Identification Numbers (EINs) on small business credit card applications during a product transition period.&nbsp;
From 2018 to 2021, American Express was further accused of misrepresenting tax benefits for its Payroll Rewards and Premium Wire programs. The firm charged above-market fees under false pretenses, regulators said.

"When financial companies engage in deceptive sales tactics or falsify information to cover up a failure to follow applicable regulations, they threaten the integrity of our financial system," said Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Brian M. Boynton, head of the Justice Department's Civil Division.
"Today's settlement makes clear that the department will hold accountable those who violate the trust placed in them to follow the rules governing our financial institutions and to be truthful about their business practices," Boynton added.&nbsp;
The Vanguard Group Pays $106.41 MIllion To Settle Charges Related To Misleading Statements
The Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday <a href="https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2025-21">announced that</a> The Vanguard Group, Inc. will pay $106.41 million to settle charges for misleading statements related to capital gains distributions and tax consequences for retail investors who held Vanguard Investor Target Retirement Funds (Investor TRFs) in taxable accounts.&nbsp;
The SEC's order finds that due to the actions of Vanguard, retail investors of the Investor TRFs who continued to hold their fund shares in taxable accounts faced historically larger capital gains distributions and tax liabilities and were deprived of the potential compounding growth of their investments.
The order also finds that Vanguard Investor TRFs' prospectuses, effective and distributed in 2020 and 2021, were materially misleading.&nbsp;
"Materially accurate information about capital gains and tax implications is critical to investors saving for their retirements," said Corey Schuster, Chief of the Division of Enforcement's Asset Management Unit. "Firms must ensure that they are accurately describing to investors the potential risks and consequences associated with their investments."&nbsp;

Here's How Much $1000 Invested In Sprouts Farmers Market 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

President Donald Trump announced a set of executive orders shortly after his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/43085323/trump-sworn-in-as-47th-president-declares-golden-age-of-america-begins-right-now">second inaugural speech Monday</a>. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A Hard Line At The Border</h3>
Immigration was at the center of Trump's first action as 47th president. The &#8220;Remain in Mexico&#8221; policy, for example, requires asylum seekers to wait outside the U.S. while their cases are processed.
Trump wants to bring this policy back and direct federal agencies to begin mass deportations.
The policy was originally implemented during his first term as president in 2019. Critics argued at the time that it exposed migrants to violence and dangerous cartels.
One of his most aggressive moves was officially designating drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. The move grants the government expanded legal authority to target them.
"We will send troops to the southern border to repel the disastrous invasion of our country," he said, doubling down on nativist language that marked his first campaign. He also invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a rarely used wartime measure, to ramp up efforts against foreign criminal organizations operating in the U.S.
The decision is expected to spark diplomatic tensions, particularly with Mexico.
It&#8217;s also worth noting that both Congress and the courts can potentially block Trump&#8217;s executive orders. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">National Energy Emergency: ‘Drill, Baby, Drill'</h3>
In another executive action, Trump declared a national energy emergency. This sets the stage for an aggressive rollback of environmental policies enacted under his predecessor.
&#8220;We will drill, baby, drill,&#8221; he said, outlining a vision in which the U.S. would rely on its vast fossil fuel reserves to drive economic growth. President Joe Biden <a href="https://www.eenews.net/articles/what-bidens-oil-record-means-for-the-industrys-future/">presided</a> over a record boom <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/23/10/35240230/us-is-producing-more-oil-under-biden-than-at-any-point-under-the-trump-administration">in domestic oil production</a>.
Still, the Trump administration aims to ramp up American energy exports to global markets and effectively dismantle key provisions of the Green New Deal.
The Biden administration introduced legislation to reduce carbon emissions and transition to renewable energy. 
Trump also announced the revocation of electric vehicle mandates, calling them a threat to the U.S. auto industry.
&#8220;We will bring prices down, fill our strategic reserves up again right to the top, and export American energy all over the world,&#8221; he said, arguing that energy independence would be a cornerstone of economic revival.
Trump blamed inflation on &#8220;massive overspending and escalating energy prices&#8221; and vowed to take immediate action to bring down costs. 
He directed his cabinet to use their authority to combat what he described as a &#8220;record inflation crisis&#8221; and declared a national energy emergency as part of his strategy.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trade And Manufacturing: The ‘New American Dream'</h3>
Trump framed his economic vision as a return to American manufacturing dominance, announcing plans to overhaul the U.S. trade system. 
He vowed to shift the burden away from domestic taxpayers and onto foreign competitors, saying, "Instead of taxing our citizens to enrich other countries, we will tariff and tax foreign countries to enrich our citizens."
To enforce this, he announced the creation of the &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/42988641/trump-wants-trade-partners-to-start-paying-announces-external-revenue-service-for-tariffs">External Revenue Service</a>,&#8221; a new agency tasked with collecting tariffs and duties from imports. It&#8217;s not clear how this agency would function alongside the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), which already oversees tariffs and revenue from foreign countries. 
"America will be a manufacturing nation once again, and we have something no other country has—the largest amount of oil and gas on Earth," he said, arguing that energy and industry would be the backbone of economic resurgence.
Trump also signaled a broader restructuring of the federal government, establishing a Department of Government Efficiency aimed at eliminating bureaucracy.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Cultural And Social Shifts</h3>
Trump also moved swiftly on social policies, signing an executive order that bars the federal government from factoring race and gender into public policy decisions. 
He declared that "there are only two genders, male and female", a stance expected to ignite legal battles with civil rights groups.
Trump promised to reinstate military personnel who had been discharged for refusing COVID-19 vaccine mandates, promising full back pay.
&#8220;Our armed forces will be freed to focus on their sole mission, defeating America&#8217;s enemies,&#8221; he said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bold International And Historical Revisions</h3>
Trump&#8217;s executive orders extended beyond domestic policy, touching on historical and geopolitical issues. 
He announced plans to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the &#8220;Gulf of America&#8221; and restore the name of Mount McKinley, which had been changed to Denali under the Obama administration.
Trump also declared that the U.S. would &#8220;take back&#8221; control of the Panama Canal, arguing that China's influence in the region posed a strategic threat.
Trump vowed to expand U.S. space exploration, declaring that American astronauts would plant &#8220;the Stars and Stripes&#8221; on Mars. In the background, a visibly pleased Elon Musk gave a thumbs-up as the president spoke.

In the current market session, Cognizant Tech Solns Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CTSH#NASDAQ">CTSH</a>) share price is at $77.81, after a 0.49% spike. Moreover, over the past month, the stock decreased by 2.11%, but in the past year, went up by 0.91%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737405909_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Comparing Cognizant Tech Solns P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Cognizant Tech Solns has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 95.48 of the IT Services industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737405909_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Personal finance expert <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42988489/im-watching-my-retirement-savings-erode-away-61-year-old-panics-over-his-investments-but-dave-ramsey-tells-him-shut-up-and-invest">Dave Ramsey</a>, known for his no-nonsense advice, recently shared a caller's story on social media highlighting a financial challenge many Americans face as they approach retirement. At age 59, this caller had no retirement savings but had recently sold a $518,000 home. Once she paid off most of her debts, leaving only a car lease, she had $290,000 left and sought Ramsey's advice on balancing investing and buying a new home.&nbsp;
"Instead of taking all of the money and putting it into a home I was thinking that maybe I should beef up an investment account," the caller said. "But I know that your steps say that&#8217;s like borrowing money to invest."
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?</li>
<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
</ul>
The caller was considering a $300,000 home just north of Palm Beach, Florida, where she currently resides. She would use $200,000 for part of it and take out a mortgage on the rest. Ramsey's response really honed in on the importance of achieving <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42947081/a-salary-is-the-drug-they-give-you-to-forget-your-dreams-says-kevin-oleary-encourages-people-to-embrace-the-fear-of-failure">financial security</a> before retirement.&nbsp;
He advised the caller to instead purchase a $200,000 home that she could buy outright instead of taking a mortgage. This would allow her to avoid monthly housing payments and allocate more of the remaining funds toward building a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42885231/can-you-guess-what-percent-of-people-retire-with-a-3-million-nest-egg-hint-its-an-incredibly-low-number">retirement nest egg</a>.&nbsp;
"Retiring with zero money or close to zero money and a nice paid-for house is not a plan," Ramsey said. He advised living in the $200,000 house for 3-5 years while the caller focuses on building her nest egg. Then later, if the market was right and she could afford to buy a nicer home, she could work up to that.&nbsp;

Now, they've propelled these icons into the future using next-gen patented AR, VR, and AI technology. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/elf-labs-1">There&#8217;s now a limited window for investors to claim shares at just $2/share with $980 minimum—but the clock is ticking.</a>
Ramsey also recommended paying off the car lease early to eliminate all remaining debt. With no debt and reduced monthly expenses, he suggested aggressively saving the leftover $50,000 by investing in a Roth IRA and SEP IRA.&nbsp;
The caller's story resonates with many Americans nearing retirement without sufficient savings. According to a recent AARP survey, 20% of adults over 50 have no retirement savings. Many are also burdened by debt, with nearly one-third carrying a credit card balance of $10,000 or more.
Inflation and rising costs continue to exacerbate these issues. Over 37% of respondents reported difficulty covering basic expenses like food and housing. Additionally, over a quarter of those not yet retired expect never to retire.
Trending: Many are using retirement income calculators to check if they&#8217;re on pace —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-do-i-calculate-my-retirement-income-adv"> here&#8217;s a breakdown on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</a>
Indira Venkateswaran, AARP's Senior Vice President of Research, noted, "Everyday expenses continue to be the top barrier to saving more for retirement and some older Americans say that they never expect to retire."
For those nearing retirement without significant savings, the path forward may involve tough decisions such as downsizing, eliminating debt and working longer. Ramsey's advice to prioritize financial security highlights the value of taking proactive steps, even late in life.
While challenges remain, guidance from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-online-financial-advisors">financial advisors</a> can help Americans navigate their retirement years with greater confidence and stability.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.
