Amplitech Group shares are trading higher. The stock initially traded lower after the company announced a $5.8 million registered direct offering, but it has since reversed.

MSTR

MicroStrategy shares are trading lower amid a pullback in Bitcoin.

<p>The automotive industry could be one of the American sectors hit hardest by President-elect<strong> Donald Trump's</strong> announced tariff plans on<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42402629/trump-to-change-dollar-stores-for-good-dollar-tree-exec-says-prepared-to-act"> Canada and Mexico.</a></p>
<p><strong>What Happened: </strong>The incoming White House administration could significantly impact various industries and influence pricing for everyday goods and less frequently purchased items, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/42247850/gm-other-us-automakers-brace-for-sharp-profit-squeeze-from-trump-tariffs-analysts-warn">such as automobiles.</a></p>
<p>Several popular vehicles that sell for under $30,000 in the U.S. are currently built in Mexico. A proposed 25% tariff on automobiles imported into the U.S. from Mexico could take these vehicles over this pricing level quickly.</p>
<p>In fact, around one-third of all vehicles below $30,000 in the U.S. are currently built in Mexico, according to data from Edmunds, as <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/trump-tariff-plan-affordable-car-price-increase-1f3d4687?mod=hp_lead_pos2">reported </a>by the Wall Street Journal. This figure has risen from around one-fifth of all vehicles under the affordable auto price point around 10 years ago.</p>
<p>Popular models like the Ford Maverick from<strong> Ford Motor Company </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) and Nissan Sentra from Nissan were named in the report.</p>
<p>Ford recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42660866/trump-gets-ford-vehicles-1m-for-inauguration-will-musk-respond-or-could-he-ride-in-rival-vehicle">announced a $1 million </a>donation to Trump's inauguration and the donation of several fleet vehicles.</p>
<p>The Honda Civic from <strong>Honda Motor Company</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) is made at several manufacturing plants, including one in Canada. Import tariffs on Canada could impact the price of this top-selling sedan model.</p>
<p><strong>Kia </strong>is another automotive company that could be highly impacted by Trump's tariff plans. The company has several models, including the Forte and K4, which were made in Mexico before being imported into the United States.</p>
<p>The Forte and K4 sedans make up around 18% of Kia's U.S. sales according to the report.</p>
<p>"Everyone's got a pretty big case of anxiety here," Kia America Chief Operating Officer <strong>Steven Center </strong>said. "In two words: Please don't. Punch me in the arm. Smack me in the head. But please don't put a tariff on."</p>
<p><strong>General Motors Company </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), which also donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration, has several assembly factories in Mexico. The automotive company sources approximately one-third of its U.S. vehicle sales from plants in Mexico.</p>

</ul>
<p><strong>Why It's Important:</strong> Trump's current plan is for 25% tariffs on items imported from Mexico, which could change a free-trade negotiation the president-elect worked on during his previous White House term.</p>
<p>Mexico has often been a place for manufacturing American automobiles that are known for their cheaper price points to help offset some of the costs of production. Around four million vehicles are made in Mexico annually according to the report, with close to 70% imported to the United States.</p>
<p>The signing of the North American Free Trade Agreement, also known as NAFTA, saw American companies turn to Mexico for cheaper labor rates for workers and ample land to build large manufacturing facilities.</p>
<p>Small sedans and SUVs, some of the most affordable options for consumers, are often manufactured in Mexico. The lower production costs help automotive companies turn a modest profit on these vehicles, which would likely result in losses if produced in the United States.</p>
<p>Tariffs on automobiles made in Mexico could change the sector, with auto companies deciding to move manufacturing to the United States or keep it in Mexico with the import tariffs. Either way, American consumers may face higher costs, whether from tariffs or increased expenses tied to U.S. manufacturing, potentially leading to the disappearance of many sub-$30,000 vehicle models.</p>
<p>A Wolfe Research estimate said $3,000 could be added to the cost of the average car sold in America, the report said.</p>
<p>This could be bad news for American consumers already facing higher costs on other items and comes after automotive prices soared during the COVID-19 pandemic due to supply shortages.</p>
<p>American consumers are paying an average of $700 monthly for loans on new automobiles, compared to an average of $500 back in 2016. Around 20% of American consumers are paying an average of $1,000 monthly for their auto loan payment, according to data from Edmunds.</p>

<p><strong>Bitcoin </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) is navigating a period of guarded optimism, according to a new report from <strong>Messari</strong>, buoyed by institutional inflows into newly approved ETFs and the promises made by the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42640293/trump-congratulates-bitcoiners-on-new-all-time-highs-as-apex-crypto-suffers-first-weekly-loss-since-election-triumph">new presidential administration</a>.</p>
<p><strong>What Happened: </strong>The <a href="https://messari.io/report-pdf/a929cd003f5eec790275e05ae8ef28cf4a6b4bfc.pdf">report</a> suggests that Bitcoin&#8217;s future trajectory depends on whether the administration can convert campaign rhetoric into tangible policy outcomes.</p>
<p>Bitcoin experienced a significant price surge in 2024, reaching an all-time high of $75,000 in the first quarter after the launch of Bitcoin ETFs. </p>
<p>Institutions were overwhelmingly net buyers of Bitcoin throughout the year, with <strong>Grayscale</strong>&#8216;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GBTC#OTC">GBTC</a>) outflows decreasing substantially and <strong>Blackrock</strong>&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBIT#NASDAQ">IBIT</a>) emerging as the largest net buyer.</p>
<p>ETF issuers now hold over 1.1 million BTC, with <strong>Blackrock </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLK#NASDAQ">BLK</a>) and Grayscale holding the majority.</p>
<p><strong>MicroStrategy </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) has continued to actively invest in Bitcoin, with total holdings now exceeding 420,000 BTC after a recent purchase of $2.1 billion.</p>
<p>The company intends to raise a further $42 billion to fund additional purchases over the next three years. </p>

<p>The election of a new president who has expressed positive sentiments towards crypto has created a hopeful environment for the sector. </p>
<p>Some of his stated promises include firing SEC commissioner <strong>Gary Gensler</strong>, introducing a national strategic Bitcoin reserve, forming a Bitcoin and crypto presidential council, and ensuring Bitcoin mining in the U.S. </p>
<p>While a federal strategic Bitcoin reserve is unlikely, the report emphasizes that achieving some of the higher-probability policy items could sustain the current market enthusiasm.</p>
<p>The Bitcoin network is undergoing a significant evolution with the introduction of Ordinals and Runes, which have enabled NFTs and fungible tokens, bringing new functionality. </p>
<p>Bitcoin&#8217;s staking protocol <strong>Babylon </strong>is also a new development, allowing holders to stake their assets to secure other networks. </p>
<p>Despite these developments, the report notes the network was not designed for maximum programmability, but a low penetration of Bitcoin utility could exceed $30 billion in market value.</p>
<p>Messari projects that institutional ETF inflows will continue to be a primary driver of price action, which could lead to more stable, less volatile price movements. </p>
<p>The report also acknowledges that the success of new developments like Runes, Ordinals, and Bitcoin staking will depend on user adoption and the continued improvement of the user experience.</p>

Watching Shares Of Flotek; Traders Circulate Co. Mentioned As Zack's Under 10 Pick

SMX shares are trading higher after the company announced integration of its cutting-edge technology to mark and protect NFC and RFID chips.

<p>The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau sued three of the nation's largest banks and the operator of<strong> Zelle </strong>last week, alleging a failure to protect consumers from widespread fraud on the peer-to-peer payment network, resulting in customer losses of more than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40155365/zelle-controversy-heats-up-jpmorgan-considers-legal-action">$870 million since 2017. </a></p>
<p><strong>The Details:</strong> The CFPB's <a href="https://www.consumerfinance.gov/enforcement/actions/early-warning-services-llc-bank-of-america-na-jpmorgan-chase-bank-na-wells-fargo-bank-na/">lawsuit</a> alleges that <strong>JP Morgan Chase &amp; Co</strong>. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), <strong>Wells Fargo &amp; Co.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>), <strong>Bank of America Corp.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) and <strong>Early Warning Services</strong> rushed to complete the Zelle payment network in order to compete with <strong>Venmo</strong> and <strong>CashApp</strong> and neglected to enact effective fraud safeguards. </p>
<p><strong>Read Next: </strong><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42669113/waymos-autonomous-vehicles-are-safer-than-human-drivers-report"><strong>Waymo&#8217;s Autonomous Vehicles Are Safer Than Human Drivers: Report</strong></a></p>
<p>"The nation's largest banks felt threatened by competing payment apps, so they rushed to put out Zelle," said CFPB Director <strong>Rohit Chopra</strong>. "By their failing to put in place proper safeguards, Zelle became a gold mine for fraudsters, while often leaving victims to fend for themselves."</p>
<p>The lawsuit further alleges that the banks "systemically failed" their customers by failing to properly investigate customer complaints or share information on known acts of fraud which allowed bad actors to hop between banks and commit repeated fraudulent transactions.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Benzinga contacted JPMorgan, Wells Fargo, Bank of America and Early Warning Services for comment on the lawsuit. </p>
<p>In <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/zelle-fraud-chase-bank-of-america-wells-fargo-cfpb-payments/">a statement</a> given to CBS News, a Zelle spokesperson said the CFPB&#8217;s accusations are &#8220;legally and factually flawed&#8221; and the lawsuit is &#8220;driven by political factors."&nbsp;</p>
<p>JPMorgan also told CBS News that the CFPB has a &#8220;political agenda,&#8221;and the agency is &#8220;overreaching its authority by making banks accountable for criminals, even including romance scammers.&#8221;</p>
<p>The CFPB said its lawsuit aims to stop the banks' alleged unlawful practices, secure penalties for the violations and obtain other relief for consumers.&nbsp;</p>
<p>"The banks failed to fix glaring flaws in their systems even as hundreds of thousands of customers filed complaints about fraud," Chopra said in a <a href="https://www.consumerfinance.gov/about-us/newsroom/prepared-press-call-remarks-of-cfpb-director-rohit-chopra-on-the-zelle-lawsuit-announcement/">statement</a>.</p>
<p>"The banks knew their customers were having their money stolen, but since they weren't bearing the cost of these losses themselves, they dragged their feet on fixing the problems," he added.&nbsp;</p>
