This Is What Whales Are Betting On Riot Platforms

Despite the stellar numbers in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42099904/nvidia-q3-earnings-highlights">its latest earnings report</a>, Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) stock slipped 3% in after-hours trading on Wednesday.
In premarket Thursday, Nvidia shares swung between gains and losses, ultimately opening 5% higher before losing steam.
By mid-morning, Nvidia shares were down 1.23%, trading at $144.10—a move many attribute to the priced-for-perfection environment surrounding the AI giant. It seems the market's insatiable appetite for upside surprises left even Nvidia's blockbuster results struggling to impress.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Nvidia Stock&#8217;s Underlying Resilience</h2>
The Santa Clara, California-based company reported an 8% beat on earnings per share and a nearly 6% revenue beat <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NVDA/earnings">compared to estimates</a>. Revenue soared 93.71% year-over-year, reaching $35.1 billion, fueled by the relentless demand for AI chips.
Despite Thursday&#8217;s volatile trading, Nvidia's technical indicators suggest underlying resilience.

The stock is trading above its eight-day, 20-day, 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages, signaling a strong bullish foundation:
<ul>
<li>8-day SMA: Nvidia sits at $145.29, above its $145.20 SMA, generating a short-term bullish signal.</li>
<li>20-day SMA: The stock's $145.29 price exceeds the $142.79 average, reinforcing the bullish narrative.</li>
<li>50-day SMA: Nvidia's $145.29 eclipses its 50-day average of $133.52, pointing to solid momentum.</li>
<li>200-day SMA: At $110.41, the 200-day average remains far below current levels, reflecting long-term bullish strength.</li>
</ul>
The MACD (moving average convergence/divergence) indicator also supports a bullish outlook with a reading of 3.19, while the RSI (relative strength index) at 56.51 shows the stock is comfortably neutral, leaving room for further upward movement without triggering overbought alarms.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can Nvidia Break Free?</h2>
Nvidia's fundamentals remain as robust as its AI ambitions, but the question lingers: Can the stock sustain its high-altitude trajectory amid sky-high expectations? 
Investors will be watching closely as Nvidia tries to stabilize after its earnings-induced turbulence.

Nvidia's Post-Earnings Jitters: Can NVDA Stock Regain Its AI-Fueled Momentum?

<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/21/business/trump-media-crypto-payment-service.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/21/business/trump-media-crypto-payment-service.html</a>
Donald J. Trump's social media company is considering developing a cryptocurrency payment service, according to a trademark application filed this week, the latest sign of the president-elect's embrace of the crypto industry.
Trump Media &amp; Technology Group <a href="https://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=98859006&amp;caseSearchType=US_APPLICATION&amp;caseType=DEFAULT&amp;searchType=statusSearch">filed an application on Monday</a> for a service called TruthFi, which it described as a platform for crypto payments, financial custody services and trading in digital assets.
The application was light on details about how the project would work or how close it was to fruition. But the initiative appears to be a bid by Trump Media to diversify its business beyond Truth Social, a social media platform whose business relies on Mr. Trump to continuously post messages to his most loyal supporters.
Any large-scale crypto project would likely require Trump Media to acquire another firm, given that it has fewer than three dozen employees. This week, shares in the crypto trading platform Bakkt surged, after the Financial Times <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/d7f921d5-3668-4b6b-a98d-2681ad73610f">reported</a> that Trump Media was in talks to buy it.
&nbsp;
Trump Media did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Bakkt, which is losing money, <a href="https://investors.bakkt.com/news/news-details/2024/Bakkt-Statement-on-Transaction-Rumors/default.aspx">put out a statement</a> on Tuesday saying it does not comment on market speculation or rumors.
Josh Gerben, a Washington D.C.-based trademark lawyer, said that the filing is a way for Trump Media to reserve the TruthFi name if it goes forward with a crypto business. He said that companies can usually reserve a name for as long as a few years. But companies typically file a trademark application with the intent to use it.
"In my experience, most of the time if a client is going to file an application, there is something going on," Mr. Gerben said.
Trump Media is currently valued at around $6.5 billion, despite taking in just over <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/06/business/trump-media-stock-price.html">$1 million in revenue</a> in the third quarter — all of it from advertising on Truth Social. With Truth Social struggling to gain new users and advertising despite Mr. Trump's popularity, Trump Media needs new businesses to bolster its revenue.
Mr. Trump has no formal role in the company that bears his name, but he owns nearly 53 percent of Trump Media's stock, and that stake — valued at $3.4 billion — is his most valuable asset. His eldest son, Donald Jr., is a member of Trump Media's board, which is stocked with loyalists to the president-elect.

'Three Bank Of America Bankers In India Depart Over Alleged Client Tips' - Financial Times

Wall Street witnessed a positive momentum on Thursday as investor risk appetite remained resilient despite escalating geopolitical tensions in Europe. The market brushed off concerns following a Russian missile strike on a Ukrainian military facility overnight, which came in response to Ukrainian missile <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42113449/natural-gas-prices-spike-to-over-1-year-highs-oil-surges-to-70-as-russia-fires-intercontinental-ballistic-missile-to-ukraine">attacks earlier this week. </a>

Conduit Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CDT#NASDAQ">CDT</a>) shares are trading higher Thursday after the company announced that the Japan Patent Office granted a composition of matter patent for its lead asset, AZD1656. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CDT/news">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: AZD1656 is a glucokinase activator designed to target a range of autoimmune disorders. The patent approval in Japan comes after a similar patent was granted in Australia, marking continued progress in securing intellectual property protections for the company&#8217;s assets.
&#8220;This approval represents another significant milestone in our efforts to maximize the value of our intellectual property portfolio,&#8221; said David Tapolczay, CEO of Conduit Pharmaceuticals.

 AZD1656 is part of Conduit&#8217;s strategy to address unmet medical needs, particularly in diseases like Lupus and ANCA Vasculitis. Conduit Pharmaceuticals is also working on other assets, including AZD5658 and AZD5904, to expand its portfolio in the autoimmune space.
&#8220;The granting of this patent in Japan, one of the world&#8217;s largest pharmaceutical markets, underscores the strength of our scientific and intellectual property strategy. We look forward to securing additional approvals in other major markets, further enhancing our global patent coverage and bolstering our out-licensing opportunities,&#8221; Tapolczay added.
CDT Price Action: Conduit Pharmaceuticals shares were up 20.4% at 11 cents at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Oklo Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>) shares are trading higher on Thursday. The company&#8217;s shares may be moving higher in response to its acquisition target Atomic Alchemy which signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Zeno Power. Here&#8217;s what you <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42092578/oklo-stock-slides-as-short-seller-sets-sights-on-altman-backed-nuclear-startup">need to know</a>.
What To Know: The goal of the MOU is for Atomic Alchemy to provide Zeno Power with radioisotopes like strontium-90 and americium-241 to power Zeno&#8217;s Radioisotope Power Systems (RPSs).
These systems generate energy from the heat emitted by radioisotopes, powering critical applications such as space exploration and national defense.
&#8220;We are thrilled to be working with Atomic Alchemy and Oklo to advance our fuel supply chain efforts and recover radioisotopes that otherwise would be waste,&#8221; said Harsh S. Desai, Chief Commercialization Officer at Zeno Power. 
&#8220;This partnership aims to expand access to critical isotopes, accelerating our work to meet the growing demand for reliable, persistent energy solutions from the ocean floor to the lunar surface.&#8221;
Previously, Oklo has proposed to acquire Atomic through an all-stock transaction.

<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.
