OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is reportedly leading a $150 million funding round for Rain AI, a semiconductor startup aiming to rival Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) in the AI chip market.&nbsp;
What Happened: The funding, which would value Rain AI at around $600 million, follows Altman's participation in the company's $25 million seed round in 2022, <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/11/19/business/sam-altman-seeks-backers-for-ai-chipmaker-to-challenge-nvidia-source/?utm_campaign=nypost&amp;utm_medium=referral">reported</a> the New York Post, citing sources with direct knowledge.
The next funding round is slated to kick off next month. &#8220;He has introduced the company to all his investors for this series B round,&#8221; the sources stated, referring to Altman.

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>

Financial Outlook
We are increasing our full year bookings outlook to $1,822 - $1,832 million, or 14-15% y/y growth, compared to previous guidance of $1,802 - $1,822 million, or 13-14% y/y growth. This high end of this updated outlook reflects the expectation that 2H bookings will accelerate to 17% y/y, compared to previous guidance of 16%, and y/y bookings growth to exit the year at 18%.
We are also updating our full year revenue outlook to $1,757 - $1,764 million, or 13% y/y, compared to $1,747 - $1,761 million previously.
We expect total revenue in Q4'24 of $457 - $464 million, or 13-15% y/y growth.
For the full year 2024, we now expect non-GAAP total gross margin of approximately 69%, slightly up from the 68-69% previously anticipated with non-GAAP Business Solutions gross margin still to exceed 30%. We also now expect non-GAAP operating expenses to be approximately 49% of revenue for the full year, down from approximately 50% previously.
As a result of our increased bookings expectation for the full year coupled with stable operating costs anticipated, we now expect to generate free cash flow, excluding headquarters costs, of $483 - $488 million, or 27-28% of revenue, in 2024, up from $460 - $470 million, or 26-27% of revenue.
The high end of our increased growth and profitability expectations would allow us to exceed the Rule of 40 this year, a full year ahead of our original plan presented to shareholders. Even with the earlier-than-expected achievement of this target, there is still room for further growth acceleration and ample margin expansion in our financial algorithm for 2025 and beyond.

Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) expressed optimism that certain aspects of the proposed strategic Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) reserve could begin to take shape following President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration ceremony.
What happened: During an interaction on X spaces hosted by asset manager VanEck on Tuesday, the Republican said she was hopeful of things moving in 2025 but stopped short of giving a specific timeline.
Lummis said that certain actions on the proposed bill could be taken even before it gets congressional approval.
"If we win with the schedule that is proposed in the BITCOIN Act, we could just start by using our existing asset forfeiture Bitcoin to fund the first year of it," she stated. "And then start converting our gold certificates to Bitcoin."

STMicroelectronics Capital Markets Day: Outlines 2027-2028 Financial Model With $18B Revenue Target, 22-24% Margins, And $20B+ Ambition By 2030

ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood popularly known for leading ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>) has raised alarm bells about the state of auto loans in America, noting that 90-day delinquency rates have now exceeded levels seen during the 2009 financial crisis.
What Happened: Wood&#8217;s comments came in response to recent data showing rising auto loan defaults, despite continued investor confidence in auto-backed securities. The Federal Reserve&#8217;s latest Supervision and Regulation Report confirms this trend, highlighting that auto loan delinquencies are approaching five-year highs in 2024.
Delinquency rates on auto loans refer to the percentage of auto loan borrowers who have failed to make their scheduled payments on time. A loan is typically considered delinquent when a payment is missed for a certain period, usually 30, 60, or 90 days.
Rising auto loan delinquency coincides with significant price cuts across the auto industry. Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) reduced U.S. prices for its Model Y, Model X, and Model S by $2,000 in April following lower-than-expected first-quarter deliveries. 
Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) cut the Mustang Mach-E's price by up to $8,100, and Nissan slashed up to $6,000 off its Ariya SUV. Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) also introduced discounts on Jeep Wranglers and Grand Cherokees.

Despite these warning signs, investors are aggressively pursuing auto loan-backed bonds, with sales of securities tied to subprime auto loans reaching nearly $40 billion through October 2024 &#8211; a 17% increase from 2023&#8217;s total. Nicholas Tripodes, senior portfolio manager at Federated Hermes, reports seeing deals &#8220;almost 20 times oversubscribed,&#8221; according <a href="https://www.wsj.com/finance/investing/wall-street-is-bullish-on-car-loans-despite-rising-delinquencies-5f0f1ec4">to</a> The Wall Street Journal.

Why It Matters: The disconnect between rising delinquencies and investor enthusiasm reflects a broader market dynamic. Auto bonds from Global Lending Services with the lowest investment-grade rating yielded approximately 6% in October, triple the yield of comparable subprime auto loan-backed debt in 2021.
The stress is particularly evident among lower-income borrowers struggling with increased living costs and higher interest rates. The overall auto loan delinquency rate hit 3.8% in June, the highest since 2010, according to Federal Reserve data.
&#8220;The delinquency rate for consumer loans remained elevated in the first half of 2024,&#8221; the Federal Reserve noted, adding that while there was some improvement in credit card delinquencies during the second quarter, auto loan defaults continued to rise year-over-year.

Goatseus Maximus (GOAT), an artificial intelligence (AI)-created meme coin, rallied sharply Tuesday ahead of the third-quarter earnings of Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>).
What happened: The Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based cryptocurrency pumped over 12% in the last 24 hours to a market capitalization of $1.21 billion.
The latest uptick pushed the coin to the top of the daily gainers list, outstripping the returns of blue-chip cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>).
GOAT was up more than 42% over the week, and a whopping 1013% since its launch more than a month ago.

Why It Matters: GOAT has caught the cryptocurrency market's attention, cracking the $1 billion market capitalization club in a quick time. In the process, it also became the first coin launched by Pump.fun, Solana's token launchpad, to hit the $1 billion milestone.
Launched by AI chatbot Truth Terminal, which has a dedicated X account, the meme coin stands as more of an experiment. Truth Terminal was created by researcher Andy Ayrey, and he controls the cryptocurrency wallet tied to GOAT.
Notable figures in the industry, like Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, have taken notice of the project's rise and even proposed setting up independent wallets to give Truth Terminal more autonomy.

The rally comes ahead of the hotly anticipated earnings report of AI juggernaut Nvidia, an event that has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42048963/why-nvidia-earnings-may-trigger-massive-sp-500-volatility">significantly moved </a>the broader financial markets in the past.&nbsp;
Price Action: At the time of writing, GOAT was exchanging hands at $1.16, up 12.91% 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>.

Microsoft Corporation&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) CEO Satya Nadella highlighted Bing's strong growth countering concerns about its minimal impact on Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google's global <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/09/34990297/microsoft-considered-selling-bing-to-apple-as-google-rival-but-iphone-maker-remained-skeptical">search dominance</a>.
What Happened: On Tuesday, during a conversation with a CNBC Overtime anchor Jon Fortt, Nadella was asked when AI was integrated into Bing, the hope was to gain more share from Google.
However, one year down the line, Google still has roughly 90% of the global search share. In response, the Microsoft CEO said that Bing search is one of the fastest-growing businesses, showing strong double-digit growth.
When asked about search share, Nadella responded that it&#8217;s a game of 100 basis points, and any progress is good.

He then expressed excitement about the success of OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT and its partnership with&nbsp;Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), which he said is beneficial for Microsoft as it runs on Azure.
&#8220;That's all incremental for even us,&#8221; Nadella stated, adding, &#8220;We are giving them the Bing index and powering ChatGPT search using our APIs.&#8221;
Regarding the relationship with OpenAI, Nadella expressed satisfaction with the partnership&#8217;s progress.
&#8220;We are thrilled to be an investor. We're thrilled to be a partner around I.P. They're one of our biggest customers now. We also compete in some areas. And so the partnership has all of those dimensions to it,&#8221; he said.

Why It Matters: Microsoft launched Bing in 2009 to compete directly with Google. However, despite its efforts, Google <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/04/31823704/is-bing-the-new-google-samsung-devices-could-ditch-google-search-for-microsoft-bing">remains the dominant player</a>, with Bing capturing less than 10% of search queries.
Meanwhile, the partnership between Microsoft and OpenAI has been a topic of interest in the tech world, especially since reports started surfacing about OpenAI&#8217;s shift from a nonprofit to a for-profit model.
Microsoft has <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">invested nearly $14 billion</a> in OpenAI since 2019, leading to a high-stakes financial and governance tug-of-war. OpenAI&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41149788/openai-valuation-soars-to-157b-in-latest-funding-round">valuation soared to $157 billion</a> in its latest funding round.
Earlier in May it was reported that OpenAI&#8217;s potential agreement with Apple had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/39109729/openais-apple-deal-sparks-concerns-in-microsoft-could-shift-ai-market-dynamics">sparked concerns within Microsoft</a>.
Last month, Microsoft&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41636770/microsoft-q1-earnings-highlights-ai-driven-transformation-is-changing-work-company-beats-revenue-ep">first-quarter earnings</a> reported a 16% year-over-year increase in revenue.
Price Action: Microsoft shares rose 0.49% on Tuesday, closing at $417.79, with a slight additional gain of 0.05% in after-hours trading, reaching $418 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
