Carnival's Options Frenzy: What You Need to Know

<p><strong>Uber Technologies Inc</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) shares are trading lower by 5.9% to $68.92 Monday afternoon. Weakness may be due to competition concerns on reports indicating <strong>President-elect Donald Trump</strong> plans to ease restrictions for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42038624/tesla-stock-is-trading-higher-monday-whats-going-on">self-driving vehicles</a>.</p>
<p><strong>What To Know:</strong> The proposed federal framework for self-driving vehicles, as reported by <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-17/trump-team-said-to-want-to-ease-us-rules-for-self-driving-cars?embedded-checkout=true"><strong>Bloomberg</strong></a>, could accelerate mass adoption of autonomous technology. <strong>Tesla Inc</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), with its plans to produce the <strong>Cybercab robotaxi</strong> by 2026, stands to benefit significantly from relaxed regulations. </p>
<p>Meanwhile, Uber, which has been heavily involved in autonomous driving through partnerships and divestitures, may face heightened competition in a market where Tesla's vertically integrated model could undercut traditional ride-hailing services.</p>
<p><strong>Read Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/42042411/inflation-could-surge-to-3-if-trump-applies-universal-tariffs-goldman-sachs">Inflation Could Surge To 3% If Trump Applies Universal Tariffs: Goldman Sachs</a></strong></p>
<p>Adding to the unease is the speculation that former Uber executive Emil Michael may be considered for Transportation Secretary. While his ties to Uber might seem advantageous, his potential appointment could align regulatory priorities more with Tesla and other autonomous manufacturers, further complicating Uber's strategic position.</p>
<p>Uber has long been reliant on its vast driver network for growth, but a rapid shift toward driverless vehicles could disrupt this dynamic. Investors appear to be factoring in the risks of Uber losing ground to competitors like Tesla, which can leverage economies of scale and cutting-edge technology in a deregulated market.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy UBER Stock</h2>
<p>Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. </p>
<p>For example, in Uber Technologies&#8217; case, it is in the Industrials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.</p>
<p>According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, UBER has a 52-week high of $87.00 and a 52-week low of $53.76.</p>

<p>Trading at $4.71, NIO stock sits below all key moving averages:</p>
<ul>
<li>The eight-day SMA ($4.79), 20-day SMA ($5.07) and 50-day SMA ($5.55) all suggest bearish momentum.</li>
</ul>
<p>Still, the stock has seen buying pressure recently, which could hint at a potential reversal if earnings impress. Analysts expect third-quarter revenue of $2.54 billion and an EPS loss of 30 cents a share.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The Verdict</strong></h2>
<p>XPeng's bullish technical indicators and innovation narrative position it as the front-runner for investor attention this week, while NIO's bearish setup leaves it with more to prove. </p>
<p>As both companies face earnings, the battle could set the tone for the next phase of China's EV wars.</p>

XPeng Vs. NIO: Can Tech, Trend Turn The Tables Ahead Of Q3 Earnings?

<p><strong>Eco Wave Power Global AB </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WAVE#NASDAQ">WAVE</a>) shares are moving higher on Monday after the company announced it received the final Nationwide Permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Here&#8217;s what you <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/42032816/exclusive-eco-wave-power-gets-green-light-from-us-army-for-first-onshore-wave-energy-project-in-la">need to know</a>.</p>
<p><strong>What To Know:</strong> The permit is in regard to the company&#8217;s wave energy project at AltaSea&#8217;s premises at the Port of Los Angeles. It allows Eco Wave Power to install eight wave energy floaters on the piles of an existing concrete wharf structure located on the east side of Municipal Pier One.</p>
<p>Furthermore, the system will feature an energy conversion unit made up of two 20-foot shipping containers, which are already located on-site and will be linked to the wave energy floaters.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are thrilled to receive this final permit and move one step closer to bringing wave energy to the U.S.,&#8221; said&nbsp;<strong>Inna Braverman</strong>, Founder and CEO of&nbsp;Eco Wave Power.</p>
<p>&#8220;This project represents not only a technological breakthrough but also a crucial step in advancing the global transition to renewable energy. We are deeply grateful for the support of AltaSea, the Port of&nbsp;Los Angeles, Shell MRE, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as we work to make wave energy a key part of the sustainable energy landscape.&#8221;</p>
<p>The company plans to have the installation finished by the end of the 2025 first quarter.</p>
<p><strong>How To Buy Eco Wave Power Global Shares</strong></p>
<p>Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. </p>
<p>For example, in Eco Wave Power Global&#8217;s case, it is in the Utilities sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.</p>

What's Going On With Eco Wave Power Global Shares Monday?

<p>The future of <strong>Tesla Inc </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) could be decided by autonomous vehicles with the company betting aggressively on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41295072/tesla-robotaxi-day-event-more-fanfare-than-substance-8-analysts-on-cybercab-optimus">future of its robotaxis.</a></p>
<p>After once threatening to ban autonomous vehicles in America, President-elect<strong> Donald Trump</strong> may be having a change of heart, bringing music to the ears of<strong> Elon Musk</strong> and Tesla investors.</p>
<p><strong>What Happened:</strong> New reports say President-elect Trump has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42038624/tesla-stock-is-trading-higher-monday-whats-going-on">plans to ease restrictions </a>on self-driving vehicles, which could help companies such as Tesla in its push to expand FSD and bring robotaxis to the market.</p>
<p>Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-17/trump-team-said-to-want-to-ease-us-rules-for-self-driving-cars?embedded-checkout=true&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">reported </a>the federal framework for autonomous vehicles could be prioritized by Trump's transition team. The report said the Transportation Department could make it easier to operate self-driving vehicles in America. While the plan could prioritize making it easier for companies to test self-driving vehicles, Congress would need to approve legislation to make mass adoption happen.</p>
<p>It's worth noting that this is only a report and Trump previously spoke out against autonomous vehicles.</p>
<p>Hours before Musk unveiled the Tesla Cybercab in California on Oct. 10, Trump spoke at the Detroit Economic Club and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/10/41298125/maybe-musk-missed-the-memo-trumps-plan-to-ban-autonomous-vehicles-could-sour-friendship">took on autonomous vehicles.</a></p>
<p>"Do you like autonomous? Does anybody like an autonomous vehicle? Know what that is? Right? When you see a car driving along? Some people do, I don't know. A little concerning to me, but the autonomous vehicles we're going to stop from operating on American roads,&#8221; Trump said.</p>
<p>Trump's comments came despite a growing friendship with Musk at the time, who had been campaigning for him in the 2024 election.</p>
<p>The comments weren't likely a huge surprise given Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39255336/trump-praises-electric-vehicles-elon-musk-in-one-speech-blames-evs-for-destroying-bridges-in-another" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">largely antagonistic stance</a>&nbsp;toward electric vehicles, often criticizing the vehicles and in some cases blaming them for destroying bridges and American infrastructure.</p>
<p>Musk&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39804113/exclusive-elon-musk-is-burning-his-own-blue-bridges-by-donating-to-trump-says-market-expert" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">supported Trump&#8217;s comments</a>&nbsp;that removing credits for American consumers to switch to electric vehicles would negatively impact the company but much more negatively impact&nbsp;Tesla&#8217;s competitors.</p>
<p>The Tesla CEO also supported Trump&#8217;s stance on making it harder for Chinese automakers to compete for electric vehicle market share in the U.S.</p>
<p>Trump's reversal of stance on autonomous vehicles could be the latest win for Musk and Tesla after the billionaire supported Trump in the election and has grown their friendship.</p>
<p><strong>You may not be a billionaire like Elon Musk, but you can uncover hidden gems in the stock market using our proprietary data and pattern recognition — </strong><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/24/11/42013739/benzingas-stock-whisper-index-5-stocks-investors-secretly-monitor-but-dont-talk-about-yet-43"><strong>check out five stocks flying under the radar that deserve your attention.</strong></a></p>
<p><strong>Why It's Important</strong>: While it is unknown if Trump will make it easier for self-driving vehicles to be on roadways and what may have caused his change of heart, the impact on Tesla should not be underestimated.</p>
<p>Wedbush analyst <strong>Daniel Ives</strong> maintained an Outperform rating and $400 price target on Tesla while highlighting the impact of the reports of Trump's transition team making self-driving vehicles a priority in a new investor note.</p>
<p>"This would be a huge step forward in easing U.S. rules for self-driving cars and be a significant tailwind for Tesla's autonomous and AI vision heading into 2025," Ives said of the Bloomberg report. "Musk's significant influence in the Trump White House is already having major influence and ultimately the golden path for Tesla around Cybercabs."</p>
<p>Ives said a strategic alliance between Trump and Musk is "playing out in real time" and is bullish for Tesla.</p>
<p>"We estimate the AI and autonomous opportunity is worth $1 trillion alone for Tesla and we fully expect under a Trump White House these key initiatives will now get fast-tracked."</p>
<p>The analyst said Tesla can march to a market capitalization of $1.5 trillion to $2.0 trillion over the next 12 to 18 months thanks to the FSD and autonomous progress.</p>
<p>"We have never viewed Tesla simply as a car company…instead we have always viewed Musk and Tesla as a leading disruptive technology global player."</p>
<p>Musk "made a strategic and big bet on" Trump winning the election and the win could be known by Tesla bulls for years to come, Ives added.</p>
<p>"Tesla and Musk are set to reap the benefits from a new friendlier regulatory era in the Beltway ahead."</p>
<p><strong>TSLA Price Action: </strong>Tesla stock is up 4.99% to $336.78 on Monday versus a 52-week trading range of $138.80 to $358.64. Tesla stock is up 38.1% year-to-date. The stock is up 36.4% since Election Day.</p>
