Chevron Gears Up For Q4 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) is taking a more combative stance in the data center market, signaling an aggressive pricing strategy to defend its territory against mounting competition from rivals like Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) and NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>).
What Happened: &#8220;We have to stem the tide of share loss in data center. And so, we will be fighting for every socket in that business&#8230; we need to be aggressive. We need to win share,&#8221; stated Michelle Holthaus, Intel&#8217;s interim co-CEO, highlighting the company&#8217;s renewed competitive approach.
This strategic shift comes as Intel&#8217;s latest financial results show <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43354712/intel-stock-climbs-on-better-than-expected-q4-report-details">continued pressure in its data center business</a>. The company&#8217;s Data Center and AI segment reported revenue of $3.4 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024, marking a 3% decline year-over-year, according to the company&#8217;s recent earnings report.
Despite these challenges, Intel exceeded overall market expectations in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43354712/intel-stock-climbs-on-better-than-expected-q4-report-details">the fourth quarter</a>, posting earnings of 13 cents per share on revenue of $14.3 billion, surpassing analyst estimates of 12 cents per share and $13.81 billion in revenue. However, this still represented a decrease from the $15.4 billion in revenue reported in the same period last year.

The company&#8217;s renewed focus on pricing strategy reflects the intensifying competition in the semiconductor industry, particularly in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42826372/intel-struggles-to-compete-with-amd-and-nvidia-in-data-centers-and-ai-chips">lucrative data center market</a> where AMD has gained ground and Nvidia dominates in AI processors. This market segment has become increasingly critical as cloud computing and artificial intelligence workloads drive demand for high-performance processors.
Intel&#8217;s strategic pivot is accompanied by broader operational changes. &#8220;We are fostering a culture of efficiency across the business while driving toward greater returns on our invested capital and improved profitability,&#8221; said David Zinsner, interim co-CEO and CFO.
Looking ahead, Intel projects first-quarter 2025 revenue between $11.7 billion and $12.7 billion, with earnings forecasted at break-even, indicating continued near-term challenges as the company implements its more <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43354712/intel-stock-climbs-on-better-than-expected-q4-report-details">aggressive market strategy</a>.
Price Action: Intel&#8217;s stock closed at $20.01 on Thursday, gaining 1.32% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock rose 3.70%. Over the past year, Intel&#8217;s stock has declined 53.55%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

What Happened: X platform (formerly Twitter) users will soon experience the convenience of instant fund transfers between their X Money accounts and bank accounts.
CEO McInerney underscored Visa&#8217;s partnership with X during his first-quarter earnings call and said the company was &#8220;excited to partner with X Money for their much-anticipated launch of the X Money account&#8221;
When asked about the daily volumes of transactions that the new platform could expect. McInerney explained that X Money will &#8220;allow the 600 million or so active monthly users of X to fund their X Money accounts.&#8221;
This new capability is made possible through a partnership with Visa Direct, which will also enable creators on the platform to receive payments much faster, said the CEO.
McInerney emphasized the successful collaboration between its team and the X Money team in developing these new features. Looking ahead, they expressed excitement about further expanding the platform&#8217;s functionality and the number of use cases it supports.

Standard treatment for stage 1 NSCLC is tumor resection, but up to 40% of patients may experience disease recurrence.1,2,3 Tumor resection is typically followed by observation but adjuvant chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy may be offered to patients with stage 1b disease who are identified to be at high risk of relapse.4 However, novel strategies to identify high risk patients are needed as well as additional treatment options in the adjuvant setting. Research suggests that ctDNA screening may help identify high risk patients who are most likely to benefit from adjuvant therapy.5,6

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) reported an 11% decline in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43355688/apple-q1-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-iphone-sales-slip-installed-base-climbs-to-all-time-high-our-best-quarter-ever">first-quarter revenue</a> for Greater China to $18.51 billion, while CEO Tim Cook highlighted a new national consumer subsidy program that could impact future sales in the region.
What Happened: During Thursday&#8217;s earnings call, Cook specifically addressed China&#8217;s recently announced fiscal stimulus measures. &#8220;In terms of the macro situation, there was a fiscal stimulus or subsidy announced&#8230;very recently in January that did not affect the December quarter,&#8221; Cook said, noting that while some provincial subsidies were active in the December quarter, the national program was only announced on Jan. 20.
The Chinese stimulus covers the categories of products Apple offers, including smartphones, tablets, PCs, and smartwatches, up to a certain price threshold. &#8220;We do see fiscal stimulus occurring,&#8221; Cook said, acknowledging the headwinds in China.
Cook maintained an optimistic stance on the company&#8217;s second-largest market, even as Chinese leader Xi Jinping&#8216;s government implemented what Morgan Stanley calls the &#8220;most aggressive stimulus tone in a decade&#8221; to boost consumption through <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/01/43168134/is-chinas-economic-stimulus-strategy-helping-its-ailing-markets-to-recover">moderately loose monetary policy</a>.
Gene Munster, managing partner at Deepwater Asset Management, provided context for the apparent downturn, noting that approximately half of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43374851/gene-munster-says-apples-mess-wasnt-as-big-as-it-looked-as-iphone-maker-delivers-better-than-expected-results">weakness in China was attributable to inventory management</a> rather than fundamental demand issues. &#8220;The mess wasn&#8217;t as big as it looked in the numbers,&#8221; Munster stated on X.

What Happened: The company&#8217;s performance comes amid broader economic challenges in China, where GDP growth in 2024 fell below targets, growing between 2.4% and 2.8% according to Rhodium Group estimates. The Chinese government&#8217;s stimulus strategy includes <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/01/43168134/is-chinas-economic-stimulus-strategy-helping-its-ailing-markets-to-recover">lowering borrowing costs</a> and reducing bank reserve requirements to increase lending, measures that could potentially boost consumer spending.
Apple&#8217;s strategic approach in China includes embracing local innovation, as evidenced by Cook&#8217;s praise for Chinese AI startup DeepSeek. &#8220;In general, I think innovation that drives efficiency is a good thing,&#8221; Cook said during <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/01/43373775/tim-cook-praises-chinas-deepseek-for-driving-efficiency-stresses-apples-prudent-and-deliberate-approach-toward-capital-expenditure">the earnings call</a> while detailing Apple&#8217;s hybrid AI model that combines on-device processing with cloud partnerships.

Tim Cook Sees Apple Products Covered By Beijing's Subsidy Program As iPhone Maker Faces 11% Revenue Decline In China: 'Fiscal Stimulus Occurring'

Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based meme coin launchpad Pump.fun was hit with a class-action lawsuit on Thursday, claiming that all tokens created on the platform are unregistered securities.
What happened: The suit, filed in a New York federal court, named Baton Corporation, a U.K.-registered company, as the owner of Pump.fun. The complaint alleged that the platform earned nearly half a billion dollars in fees by selling "highly volatile unregistered securities."
The plaintiff further accused Pump.fun of allowing the sale of "worthless" digital tokens in minutes, disregarding basic investor protections, including "Know Your Customer" rules and anti-money laundering protocols.
The lawsuit also claimed that the network has no age verification or restrictions in place, allowing anyone to create tokens on provocative themes.

The lead complainant, Diego Angular, claimed to have lost money trading Pump.fun meme coins like Fwog (FWOG) and Griffain (GRIFFAIN) and sought compensation.&nbsp;
Alon Cohen, Pump.fun creator, didn&#8217;t immediately respond to Benzinga&#8217;s request for comment.
Why It Matters: The latest legal trouble comes two weeks after a class-action lawsuit was filed against Pump.fun over the sale of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41949184/elon-musk-endorsed-peanut-the-squirrel-surges-270-to-15-billion-valuation-only-more-wild-moves-ahead-says-millionaire-trader">popular</a> Peanut The Squirrel (PNUT) token.
Pump.fun was at the heart of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42014810/viral-baby-hippo-moodeng-makes-new-all-time-high-could-follow-shiba-inus-run-trader-predicts">Solana meme coin mania</a> last year, spawning multi-million dollar coins like PNUT, Fartcoin (FARTCOIN), and MooDeng (MOODENG).
As of this writing, the combined market capitalization of Pump.fun meme coins was nearly $6 billion, <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/categories/pump-fun">according </a>to CoinGecko. Over the last 24 hours, the valuation fell by 8%.

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) researcher Troy Teslike expects the company&#8217;s EV deliveries to drop this year despite the Elon Musk-led EV giant promising new and more affordable models on Wednesday.
What Happened: Teslike expects deliveries to decline 1% in 2025 to 1.77 million units, below the company-compiled consensus estimate of over 2 million units, the researcher said in a post on social media platform X, formerly Twitter.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Hi everyone. Here are the Tesla delivery estimates for the full year: • My Estimate: 1,772,000 units • Analyst Consensus: 2,039,674 units The analyst consensus comes from Tesla&#39;s survey of 26 analysts, known as the Company-Compiled consensus. Tesla delivered 1,789,226 cars… <a href="https://t.co/t5sKQBw6B0">pic.twitter.com/t5sKQBw6B0</a>

As per Teslike, the start of Tesla Semi deliveries won&#8217;t contribute to the delivery numbers this year and CEO Musk did not reiterate the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/42802658/tesla-ceo-elon-musks-20-to-30-sales-growth-target-for-2025-is-not-realistic-says-analyst">20%-30% delivery growth target</a> that he had put forth in October.
&#8220;We expect the vehicle business to return to growth in 2025,&#8221; the company said in its earnings report instead. 
Teslike, however, expects sales to drop in both the U.S. and Europe due to top brand sentiment and fewer incentives. The researcher, however, expects deliveries to rise in China, similar to 2024. 
Tesla said on Wednesday that the company expects to start production of new models, including more affordable ones, in the first half of 2025. Teslike, however, expects the new vehicles to cannibalize sales of existing models.
Why It Matters: Tesla stock rose after hours on Wednesday despite the company reporting revenue and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43326143/tesla-stock-rises-5-after-hours-on-fsd-and-new-vehicle-promises-despite-q4-revenue-miss">earnings below expectations</a>. The company promised new and affordable models this year and said that it would start testing its autonomous ride-hailing service in Texas in June with vehicles deployed with its full self-driving (FSD) driver assistance technology, driving investor sentiment. 
However, Musk also warned that the company will be retooling factories for the start of production of its new and refreshed Model Y in the first quarter and the change will result in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43328898/elon-musk-warns-teslas-new-model-y-will-result-in-several-weeks-of-lost-production-for-ev-giant-in-q1">several weeks of lost production</a>. 
Tesla stock closed up 2.9% at $400.28 on Thursday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro.</a> Tesla has a consensus price target of $320.75 based on the ratings of 32 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSLA/analyst-ratings">analysts tracked by Benzinga</a> and a consensus &#8220;buy&#8221; rating.
