Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) has been on a record-breaking run since Donald Trump was elected president earlier this month.
The leading cryptocurrency has been hitting new all-time highs practically every day, with the latest upswing pushing it beyond $94,000 for the first time.
Interestingly, the bullish run has made one Bitcoin worth more than the average retirement savings of Americans.
What happened: According to the Federal Reserve&#8217;s most recent Survey of Consumer Finances, the median retirement savings in the U.S. <a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/publications/files/scf23.pdf">was </a>estimated to be $86,900. This reflected an increase of 15% from 2019.&nbsp;
A separate <a href="https://www.transamericainstitute.org/docs/library/research/post-pandemic-retirement-realities-multigenerational-workforce-press-release-july-2023.pdf?sfvrsn=7b892af_8">study </a>by Transamerica Center in 2023 revealed that millennials, those born between 1981 and 1996, saved only $49,000 in retirement funds, while Generation X, born between 1965 and 1980, saved $82,000.

In contrast, the value of Bitcoin has leapfrogged 23,853% in the last decade, rising from $387 in Nov. 2014 to $92,696 as of this writing.
So, if someone bought $1,000 in Bitcoin ten years ago, their investment would now be worth $239,524, more than twice the estimated retirement savings highlighted above.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Additionally, a report disclosed that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/04/38466698/are-you-saving-enough-to-be-in-the-top-3-of-retirees-heres-how-much-you-need">the average U.S. adult estimates</a> needing $1.46 million to retire &#8220;comfortably&#8221; in 2024, with Gen Z and Millennials needing more than $1.6 million.&nbsp;
If they invested around $10,000 of their wealth into Bitcoin 10 years ago, their stockpile would have been worth more than $2.39 million today.&nbsp;
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $92,696, up 1.01% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Major Chinese fund companies have&nbsp;announced a reduction in fees&nbsp;for a selection&nbsp;of equity exchange-traded funds (ETFs). This move intensifies the price war in the booming $400 billion ETF market.
What Happened: The fee cuts come a day after&nbsp;Wu Qing, China&#8217;s chief securities regulator, expressed support for index investment and fee reform in the fund industry. ETFs, which&nbsp;typically track an index and&nbsp;trade on exchanges, have seen significant growth this year as investors turn away from underperforming active fund managers, Reuters&nbsp;reported on Wednesday.
China Asset Management Co&nbsp;(ChinaAMC), leading the ETF market, announced it would reduce fees on&nbsp;eight ETF products, including the&nbsp;160 billion yuan China SSE 50 ETF. The management fee will drop to 0.15% from 0.5%, and the custodian fee to 0.05% from 0.1%.

Other fund companies such as&nbsp;E Fund Management,&nbsp;Huatai-PineBridge Fund Management,&nbsp;Harvest Fund Management, and&nbsp;HuaAn Fund Management&nbsp;have made similar announcements. This trend is expected to attract more capital into the market, with net inflows into China&#8217;s onshore ETFs surpassing 900 billion yuan this year, according to BNP Paribas. 
Why It Matters: The fee reduction by major Chinese fund companies comes amid a backdrop of economic measures and market fluctuations. In October, investor sentiment was dampened when anticipated large-scale economic stimulus measures from Chinese authorities did not materialize. Despite <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41316058/chinese-stocks-etfs-struggle-as-multi-trillion-yuan-stimulus-hopes-fall-short-yet-m">signals of increased fiscal support,</a> the absence of a substantial economic package left traders underwhelmed.
Furthermore, China&#8217;s decision to cut interest rates in late October led to a decline in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41426987/us-listed-chinese-etfs-drop-after-beijing-cuts-interest-rates">several China-focused ETFs</a> in the U.S. This move, aimed at stimulating economic growth, instead raised concerns among investors about its broader implications.
Meanwhile, U.S.-listed Chinese ETFs have been providing American investors exposure to Chinese equities, bonds, or a combination of both, while being traded on U.S. stock exchanges. These ETFs are a convenient way for investors to gain diversified exposure to China&#8217;s economic growth without the complexities of directly investing in foreign markets. According to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>, KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KWEB#NYSE">KWEB</a>), iShares China Large-Cap ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FXI#NYSE">FXI</a>), Invesco Golden Dragon China ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PGJ#NASDAQ">PGJ</a>), and iShares MSCI China ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCHI#NASDAQ">MCHI</a>) are some of the popular names on the list.

In a strategic move to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41443856/tesla-offers-discounts-of-up-to-4k-on-select-model-3-y-vehicles-as-it-looks-to-avert-1st-ever-declin">enhance vehicle sales</a> in the fourth quarter,&nbsp;EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)&nbsp;is leveraging&nbsp;its Tesla Electric utility service. The initiative aims to attract more buyers through a unique incentive.
What Happened: Tesla launched the Tesla Electric service in 2022 to expand its virtual power plant efforts. This service automatically manages electricity transactions for Powerwall owners, offering protection against peak prices.
Currently, Tesla Electric is operational&nbsp;in Texas and the UK,&nbsp;with plans for further expansion.
To boost car sales, Tesla is offering a special incentive.
Customers who purchase a new Tesla vehicle by Dec. 31 can enjoy unlimited overnight charging for just $5 per month for a year. Eligibility requires buyers to reside in a Texas area where they can choose their electricity provider and become new Tesla Electric members.

This initiative is part of Tesla&#8217;s strategy to achieve record vehicle deliveries in Q4 2024, targeting over 515,000 units.
The offer comes amidst Tesla's efforts to boost its fourth-quarter delivery numbers. The company is also offering discounts on&nbsp;some inventory vehicles in the U.S.&nbsp;and offers in other offers in geographies&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/41892379/tesla-offers-a-year-of-supercharging-for-free-in-europe-as-it-chases-record-q4-deliveries-to-outpace-a-slowdown" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">including Europe.</a>
Why It Matters: Tesla&#8217;s energy segment has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41537560/teslas-energy-segment-boom-in-q3-sparks-leadership-changes-veteran-mike-snyder-promoted-as-vp">seen significant growth</a>, with revenues reaching $2.376 billion in Q3 2024, marking a 52% increase compared to the previous year. This growth has led to the promotion of Michael Snyder to Vice President of Energy and Charging.
The energy business achieved a record gross margin of 30.5%, with the Powerwall product seeing record deployments.
In addition, Tesla is offering <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42001907/tesla-offers-3-months-of-free-supercharging-fsd-subscription-for-north-american-buyers-till-year-end-to-boost-deliveries">three months of free full self-driving (FSD)</a> subscription and supercharging for North American buyers who&nbsp;take delivery of a new&nbsp;inventory vehicle&nbsp;by the end of the&nbsp;year. This offer extends to Tesla&#8217;s entire lineup, including the newly added Cybertruck.
Tesla&#8217;s sales in China and globally are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/41894615/tesla-q4-deliveries-expected-to-set-new-records-but-not-enough-to-avoid-yearly-sales-decline-says-researcher">expected to set new records</a> in Q4 2024, but may not be sufficient to avoid a decline in full-year sales. The company needs to deliver at least 514,926 vehicles in the last quarter to surpass its 2023 delivery numbers.
Price Action: Tesla stock gained over 2.1% on Tuesday to close at $346. Year-to-date, the EV giant's stock has gained 39.3%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Comcast Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>) is set to announce a significant restructuring of its media empire, spinning off most of its cable television networks including MSNBC and CNBC into a separate publicly traded company.
What Happened: The new company, to be led by current NBCUniversal Media Group chairman Mark Lazarus as CEO, will house popular channels including USA, Oxygen, E!, Syfy, and Golf Channel. NBCUniversal will retain control of Bravo, the NBC broadcast network, Peacock streaming service, NBC Sports, and Universal theme parks, <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2024/11/19/media/comcast-nbcuniversal-cable-spinoff-msnbc/index.html">reported</a> CNN.
The move comes as traditional cable networks face increasing pressure from streaming services. Despite industry headwinds, these channels remain profitable contributors to Comcast&#8217;s bottom line. The spinoff is being positioned as a growth opportunity, with potential for future acquisitions in an industry primed for consolidation.
During a recent investor call, Comcast president Mike Cavanaugh had hinted at the possibility, mentioning plans to evaluate creating &#8220;a new well-capitalized company&#8221; for the cable portfolio networks.

Why It Matters: The restructuring notably separates MSNBC and CNBC from NBC News, potentially unwinding years of integration efforts within NBCUniversal&#8217;s news operations. The company is expected to detail its vision for the news division separation in Wednesday&#8217;s formal announcement.
The announcement comes as media companies navigate a rapidly evolving landscape. Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) CEO Bob Iger recently stated his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41999904/disney-ceo-bob-iger-slams-the-brakes-on-new-ma-amid-comcasts-cable-spinoff-we-dont-need-more-assets-to-compete-in-todays-disruptive-media-landscape">company doesn&#8217;t need additional assets</a> to compete effectively, having already consolidated through its 20th Century Fox acquisition.
Industry analysts have long anticipated such a move. &#8220;Investors have yearned for exactly this, or at least something close to it, for years,&#8221; <a href="https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/nbcuniversal-comcast-cable-spinoff-shut-down-warner-discovery-paramount-1236196378/">said</a> Craig Moffett of MoffettNathanson to Variety.

Wedbush analyst Dan Ives has described Rain AI as &#8220;one of the legitimate players at the table when it comes to the future of AI and chips.&#8221;
&#8220;There&#8217;s a lot of buzz around everything Rain AI is doing and it's the early days of the AI revolution,&#8221; he said, adding, &#8220;There&#8217;s going to be many players, not just the &#8216;Godfather of AI&#8217; Jensen Huang and Nvidia.&#8221;

OpenAI and Rain AI did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comments.
Why It Matters: Jensen Huang-led Nvidia is currently the world&#8217;s most valuable company, with a market capitalization of $3.606 trillion.
Analysts anticipate a &#8220;beat-n-raise&#8221; performance in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42068962/nvidia-q3-earnings-preview-analysts-expect-beat-n-raise-on-continued-data-center-strength">Nvidia&#8217;s third-quarter earnings</a>, projecting revenue of $33.12 billion—up sharply from $18.12 billion in the same period last year.
The AI chip giant is set to announce its earnings on Wednesday, Nov. 20.
Although Nvidia&#8217;s new Blackwell AI chips are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42028342/blackwell-backfires-nvidias-ai-chips-struggle-with-server-overheating-impacting-meta-microsoft-and-musks-xai-data-centers">facing overheating concerns</a>, the company&#8217;s valuation is still anticipated to climb, fueled by the promise of its next-generation AI chip. I/O Fund analyst Beth Kindig predicted Nvidia could reach a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40670634/nvidia-set-to-reach-10-trillion-valuation-as-blackwell-expected-to-propel-chip-maker-with-firewo">$10 trillion valuation</a> in September.
Meanwhile, last month, Altman&#8217;s OpenAI raised over $6.5 billion in new funding, boosting its valuation to $157 billion.
The funding round was led by Thrive Capital and included major tech players such as Nvidia and Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>). Since 2019, Microsoft has invested about<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41556636/microsoft-and-openai-clash-over-14-billion-as-the-ai-leader-converts-to-a-for-profit-business-disrup"> $14 billion in OpenAI</a>.
Price Action: Nvidia shares climbed 4.89% on Tuesday, closing at $147.01, and gained an additional 0.46% in after-hours trading, reaching $147.69 as of this writing, according to data<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent103024&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> from Benzinga Pro.</a>

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Reportedly Leading $150M Funding For Rain AI: Startup Called 'One Of The Legitimate Players At The Table' To Challenge Nvidia

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
A Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/msft-stock-quote/">MSFT</a>) Office outage has workers annoyed as its causing problems with them being able to use the company&rsquo;s services.



This newest outage is affecting Microsoft Office and the company&rsquo;s <a href="https://x.com/MSFT365Status/status/1818267438435147865">Microsoft 365 services and features</a>. The company is working to resolve these issues and is advising users to track the outage status from the admin center.



Unfortunately, many users on X are reporting that they can&rsquo;t even access the admin center due to the outage. That resulted in Microsoft&rsquo;s Azure Services support account chiming in. It noted that there are also issues with its service that may be hindering users.



Here&rsquo;s what Mircosoft said about the problems in a post on X.




&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve applied mitigations and rerouted user requests to provide relief. We&rsquo;re monitoring the service to confirm resolution and further information can be found at <a href="https://status.cloud.microsoft" title="https://status.cloud.microsoft">https://status.cloud.microsoft</a> or under MO842351 in the admin center.&rdquo;




<h2>Microsoft Office Outage: What Happens Next?</h2>



It looks like the problems are clearly on Microsoft&rsquo;s end. That means there&rsquo;s not much users can do until the company sorts the matter out. Those looking for further updates can find them under the MO842351 ticker in the admin center, so long as they can get to it with the ongoing outage.



It&rsquo;s also worth noting that this comes not too long after <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-30/microsoft-reports-outage-of-office-applications-and-services?embedded-checkout=true">another outage affected Windows computers</a>. Granted, that one was the fault of CrowdStrike (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/crwd-stock-quote/">CRWD</a>) pushing out a bad update to users of Microsoft&rsquo;s operating system.
