Stocks That Hit 52-Week Lows On Wednesday

ENERGY REVENUE AMERICA by Energy Revenue America, Inc.

Energy Revenue America Inc

President-elect Donald Trump congratulated the cryptocurrency community on Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) new all-time highs on Sunday even as the leading cryptocurrency posted its first weekly decline since his victory last month.
What happened: Addressing a rally at the Turning Point USA event in Phoenix, Trump emphasized how risk-on markets have risen since the election.
"Bitcoin surged to an all-time record high of $108,000. Congratulations," Trump said amid thunderous applause from the crowd.

Interestingly, Trump&#8217;s enthusiastic speech coincided with Bitcoin&#8217;s first weekly loss since his election triumph, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41915075/how-to-trade-the-trump-bitcoin-rally">sparked a record-breaking rally</a> for the top cryptocurrency. At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down over 8% in the last week.
Why It Matters: Several of Bitcoin's technical indicators painted a bearish outlook as of this writing.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator, which compares two exponential moving averages of price, flashed a &#8220;Sell&#8221; signal, <a href="https://in.tradingview.com/symbols/BTCUSD/technicals/">according </a>to TradingView. Additionally, most shorter moving averages projected downsides.
The Relative Strength Index, used to determine if an asset is overbought or oversold, showed a "Neutral" reading.&nbsp;
That said, the percentage of traders placing upside bets on the coin rose above 50%, signaling expectations of a rebound, <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/LongShortRatio">according </a>to data from Coinglass.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $96,296.30, down 0.76% 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>.&nbsp;

Trump Congratulates Bitcoin Community On New All-Time Highs Just As Top Crypto Suffers First Weekly Loss Since His Election Triumph

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is taking its AirPods to the next level with plans to introduce heart rate monitors, temperature sensors, and even cameras to boost AI capabilities.
What Happened: In his &#8220;Power On&#8221; newsletter, Bloomberg columnist Mark Gurman reported that Apple's teams are currently experimenting with new improvements.
This includes heart rate monitoring, temperature sensing, and advanced sensors to track various physiological measures. The primary focus is to incorporate heart rate monitoring, a feature already available on the Apple Watch, into the AirPods.
It could debut with the next-generation AirPods Pro.
Subscribe to the <a href="https://bztechtrends.beehiiv.com/subscribe">Benzinga Tech Trends newsletter</a> to get all the latest tech developments delivered to your inbox.
Cupertino is also working on integrating cameras into the AirPods to facilitate AI services. The technology could take a couple more years to hit the market, provided it doesn't get canceled once again, said Gurman.
Why It Matters: In September, Apple announced a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40786879/apples-airpods-pro-2-bring-clinical-grade-hearing-aid-without-the-stigma-or-high-cost-heres-what-peo">new suite of features</a> for the AirPods Pro 2, including active Hearing Protection, a scientifically validated Hearing Test, and a clinical-grade Hearing Aid.
These advancements are awaiting approval from health authorities like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and are expected to launch this fall in over 100 markets.
Apple&#8217;s wearables segment continues to be a significant revenue driver, with AirPods playing a key role.
In the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41666494/apple-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-installed-base-hits-new-highs-iphone-sales-rise-as-apple-in">fiscal fourth quarter</a>, the wearables division generated $9.04 billion, though Apple's share in the true wireless stereo <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42182829/apple-could-keep-airpods-max-headphones-around-without-meaningfully-updating-them-says-analyst-heres-why">market has declined</a> from 48.1% in 2019 to 17% today.
Price Action: Apple&#8217;s stock rose by 1.88% on Friday, ending the day at $254.49. Year-to-date, shares have increased by 37.09%, based on <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag">data from Benzinga Pro</a>. The latest analyst reports from Morgan Stanley, Needham, and Wedbush have set an average price target of $277.67, indicating a potential upside of 8.74%.

Apple AirPods To Get Heart Rate, Temperature Sensors, And Cameras To Help With AI Features: Top Analyst

MicroStrategy founder and Chairman Michael Saylor presented a detailed digital assets framework on Friday for the U.S. government to strengthen fiscal policy and position the country to lead the 21st-century digital financial system
What happened: The complete proposal urged for regulatory clarity, including defining what constitutes a digital asset, stakeholder rights and obligations, transparency, and initiatives to promote innovation.
Among the key objectives of the so-called strategic digital asset policy was the creation of a Bitcoin reserve, having the potential to generate $16–$81 trillion in wealth for the Treasury and thereby neutralizing the soaring national debt.
Interestingly, Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), who proposed a bill to establish a Bitcoin reserve, advocated purchasing 1 million BTC over five years, which is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40722735/trump-presidency-will-be-total-game-changer-for-crypto-industry-says-pro-bitcoin-senator-c">expected to be worth</a> $17 trillion in 20 years.

Additionally, Saylor&#8217;s framework called for growing digital currency markets from $25 billion to $10 trillion and digital capital markets from $2 trillion to $280 trillion.
The proposal also advocated growth in the digital asset market, other than Bitcoin, from $1 trillion to $590 trillion.
Saylor also supported increasing investors&#8217; access to a variety of digital assets, including tokenized commodities, real estate, art, businesses, teams, collectibles, intellectual property, and trademarks.

Why It Matters: The proposal comes amid a renewed sense of optimism in cryptocurrency circles following Donald Trump&#8217;s presidential victory last month.

Saylor also urged the incoming administration to take the lead in establishing a digital assets framework, outlining clear definitions of different entities and fixing the responsibilities of participants.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $93,904.08, down 3% 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>.

Michael Saylor Proposes US Digital Assets Framework, Backs Bitcoin Reserve Capable Of Generating $16–$81 Trillion In Wealth

President-elect Donald Trump has addressed speculation about Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk&#8217;s growing political influence.
What Happened: On Sunday, speaking at Turning Point USA&#8217;s AmericaFest conference, Trump dismissed suggestions that he had &#8220;ceded the presidency&#8221; to Musk, pointing to the Constitution&#8217;s natural-born citizen requirement, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-addresses-elon-musks-growing-political-influence-not-going-presi-rcna185038">reported</a> NBC.
&#8220;No, he&#8217;s not going to be president, that I can tell you,&#8221; Trump stated. &#8220;And I&#8217;m safe. You know why? He can&#8217;t be. He wasn&#8217;t born in this country.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Earlier this week, Trump and Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42566558/house-republicans-reject-spending-bill-under-pressure-from-trump-musk-government-faces-shutdown">played a key role in derailing</a> Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson's (R-La.) proposed emergency spending measure, forcing lawmakers to scramble for a last-minute alternative to avoid a government shutdown.
Democrats have jokingly dubbed Musk &#8220;President Musk&#8221; due to his growing political influence. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40969728/elon-musk-boosts-house-republicans-with-record-289-100-donation">Musk had spent</a> more than $250 million on Trump's campaign, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-addresses-elon-musks-growing-political-influence-not-going-presi-rcna185038">noted</a> NBC.
A separate NBC <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/elon-musk-meeting-foreign-leaders-trump-conflict-putin-china-rcna184846">report</a> indicated that the Tesla CEO&#8217;s increasing presence in political circles has raised concerns among national security experts about potential conflicts of interest, given his extensive business dealings with foreign governments.
His companies maintain significant government contracts, with SpaceX providing critical services to NASA and the Pentagon.
Tesla&#8217;s substantial manufacturing presence in China, where the company operates its Gigafactory Shanghai facility, has also drawn particular scrutiny.
The company currently dominates the U.S. electric vehicle <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42637260/elon-musk-accused-of-bullying-republicans-to-scrap-us-china-investment-safeguards-to-protect-teslas-interests">market with nearly 50% market share</a>.
Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.), outgoing chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, expressed concern about Musk&#8217;s dual roles.
&#8220;I think he has incredible conflicts,&#8221; Cardin told the publication. &#8220;His association with the president-elect has already profited him as far as his personal assets are concerned.&#8221;
Price Action: Tesla&#8217;s stock dropped 3.46% on Friday, closing at $421.06, but rose 0.53% in after-hours trading. Year-to-date, the EV giant&#8217;s shares are up 69.5%. The latest ratings from Baird, Mizuho, and Goldman Sachs set an average price target of $446.67, indicating a potential upside of 5.53%, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Trump Fires Back At Critics, Denies Ceding Presidency To Elon Musk: 'I'm Safe ... He Wasn't Born In This Country'

A cheeky remark by influential economist Peter Schiff spawned a new cryptocurrency on Sunday that already has millions added to its capitalization.
What happened: The creators of the cryptocurrency USAcoin (USACOIN) were inspired by Schiff, who advised the U.S. government to consider the possibility of a strategic USAcoin reserve rather than a Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) reserve.
As of this writing, the coin has a market valuation of roughly $2.80 million, with over $7 million in trading volume in the last 24 hours, <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/usacoin-ethereum/">according</a> to CoinMarketCap.
Reacting to the new coin, Schiff clarified that he doesn&#8217;t endorse it. &#8220;My post was sarcastic—don&#8217;t buy it,&#8221; the staunch Bitcoin critic said. However, he stood by the idea behind proposing such a cryptocurrency.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Someone actually created a <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/USAcoin?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#USAcoin</a>. My post was sarcastic—don&#39;t buy it. However, my point was that if the U.S. government created such a token and committed to building a strategic USAcoin reserve, it would make more sense than stockpiling <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bitcoin?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Bitcoin</a>. That part wasn&#39;t a joke.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
On Saturday, Schiff mooted the idea of a new government-backed cryptocurrency with a supply limit of 21 million, similar to Bitcoin, but one that has value and can be utilized for payments.
No prizes for guessing the new USAcoin also shows a supply cap of 21 million but was yet to be validated.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

Just like Bitcoin, the supply can be capped at 21 million, but with an upgraded blockchain to make USAcoin actually viable for use in payments. This way we can all get rich.

He argued that Bitcoin is not a viable reserve asset due to its market volatility.
A gold advocate, Schiff strongly opposes Bitcoin, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40818582/gold-bull-peter-schiff-claims-bitcoin-lacks-intrinsic-value-and-is-destined-to-fail">stating that it has no fundamental value</a> and was destined to fail.

Peter Schiff's 'Sarcastic' Post Spurs Birth Of Supposed Bitcoin Alternative USAcoin With Millions In Marketcap, Economist Warns 'Don't Buy It'

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) and Anduril Industries, a defense technology company are spearheading a new consortium of technology companies to compete for U.S. Department of Defense contracts, challenging traditional defense contractors&#8217; dominance over the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42615531/pltr-stock-up-over-80-in-the-past-two-months-trades-nearly-5-lower-in-friday-premarket-after-ubs-says-valuationis-simply-tough-to-get-over">$850 billion defense budget</a>.
What Happened: The group, expected to announce formal agreements in January, is in discussions with Elon Musk&#8216;s SpaceX, OpenAI, Saronic, and Scale AI, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/6cfdfe2b-6872-4963-bde8-dc6c43be5093">reported</a> the Financial Times on Sunday, citing people with knowledge of the matter.
This initiative comes as Palantir&#8217;s market capitalization has surged to $169 billion, surpassing traditional defense contractor Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>). Palantir&#8217;s stock has risen over 300% in the past year, though it recently faced headwinds after UBS initiated coverage with a neutral rating, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42615531/pltr-stock-up-over-80-in-the-past-two-months-trades-nearly-5-lower-in-friday-premarket-after-ubs-says-valuationis-simply-tough-to-get-over">citing valuation concerns</a>.
The consortium aims to modernize defense procurement by offering smaller, autonomous weapons systems and AI-powered solutions. Recent collaborations already show promise, with Palantir&#8217;s AI Platform being integrated with Anduril&#8217;s Lattice autonomous software for national security applications.
Palantir and Anduril did not immediately respond to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.

Why It Matters: The timing aligns with increased defense spending driven by conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, plus rising U.S.-China tensions. Palantir recently secured a $400.7 million contract extension with the U.S. Army, which could potentially reach $618.9 million over four years.

What Happened: Bitcoin went downhill after being faced with strong resistance from the bears at $97,000. The apex cryptocurrency was down nearly 11% over the week and 2.15% since December began.
Ethereum's move above $3,600 was short-lived as the second-largest cryptocurrency reversed course, falling to an intraday low of $3,220.&nbsp;
Both the blue-chip cryptocurrencies witnessed thin trading volume in the last 24 hours.&nbsp;
Over $276 million was liquidated from the market in the last 24 hours, with long liquidations accounting for $204 million.&nbsp;

Following Trump's announcement, venture capital powerhouse Marc Andreessen took to X, formerly Twitter, and called Krishnan's appointment a "1,000x upgrade for the U.S. government," for positioning itself as a global AI policy leader.
Musk agreed with Andreessen's sentiments.

Trump Taps Sriram Krishnan As Senior AI Advisor — Elon Musk Agrees New David Sacks Underling 'Right Man For The Topic And The Time'

Panama&#8217;s President José Raúl Mulino strongly rejected President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s suggestion to return the Panama Canal to U.S. control, highlighting potential tensions that could affect maritime trade through the critical waterway.
What Happened: &#8220;Every square meter of the Panama Canal and its adjacent zone belongs to Panama, and will continue to do so,&#8221; Mulino said in a video statement on Sunday. 
His response came after Trump told supporters at Turning Point&#8217;s &#8220;American Fest&#8221; that he would demand the canal&#8217;s return to U.S. control, citing concerns over fees and fair treatment, <a href="https://thehill.com/policy/international/5053110-president-of-panama-fires-back-at-trump-canal-belongs-to-panama/">reported</a> The Hill.
"It was given to Panama and to the people of Panama, but it has provisions. You got to treat us fairly and they haven't treated us fairly," Trump said.

The Panama Canal, transferred to Panamanian control in 1999, serves as a crucial maritime route connecting the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The waterway handles <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/19/07/14072752/commentary-expansion-of-the-panama-canal-benefits-global-trade">approximately 12,000 vessel transits</a> annually and is particularly vital for U.S. East Coast ports, which have seen stronger cargo growth since the canal&#8217;s 2016 expansion.
Mulino defended the canal&#8217;s fee structure, explaining that rates &#8220;are established publicly and in an open hearing, taking into account market conditions, international competition, operating costs, and maintenance needs.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The canal&#8217;s significance to U.S. trade is substantial. According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/partner/cryptocurrency/24/12/42507134/hive-digital-technologies-nasdaq-hive-experiences-monumental-month-amid-tech-tailwinds-tri">FreightWaves data</a>, shipping costs from Asia to U.S. East Coast ports via the canal are approximately $1,400 higher per standard forty-foot container compared to West Coast routes, reflecting the waterway&#8217;s strategic importance in global trade.
Recent challenges include climate-related issues, with the Panama Canal Authority implementing additional fees due to historically low water levels. In 2019, total rainfall dropped 20%, affecting the Gatun and Madden Lakes that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/partner/cryptocurrency/24/12/42507134/hive-digital-technologies-nasdaq-hive-experiences-monumental-month-amid-tech-tailwinds-tri">supply the canal</a>.
Despite the diplomatic tension, Mulino expressed hope for maintaining strong bilateral relations with the incoming Trump administration, particularly on security issues like illegal migration and drug trafficking. However, he emphasized that Panama&#8217;s sovereignty over the canal is &#8220;not negotiable.&#8221;

Trump's Call To Reclaim Panama Canal Sparks Backlash: 'Every Square Meter Belongs To Panama,' Says President Mulino

Sen. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42494409/bernie-sanders-proposes-taxing-income-over-1-billion-at-100-and-urges-its-time-to-make-greedy-billionaires-pay-their-fair-share">Bernie Sanders</a> has sparked conversation on social media with a post tying universal health care to an idea floated by President-elect <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/11/41869001/heres-how-trumps-policies-might-shape-the-markets-future">Donald Trump</a>. According to The Associated Press (AP), at a dinner with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in November, Trump jokingly suggested that Canada become the 51st state of the United States of America.&nbsp;
In Sanders' post on X, he wrote: "Trump has suggested that Canada become the 51st state in our union. Does that mean we can adopt the Canadian health care system and guarantee health care to all, lower the cost of prescription drugs and spend 50% less per capita on health care? I&#8217;m all for it."

<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
</ul>
Sanders, a longtime proponent of universal health care, has drawn attention to Canada's single-payer health care model. According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI), in 2020, Canada&#8217;s per capita spending on health care was CA$7,507 (USD$5,220), less than half the United States per capita spending of CA$15,275 (USD$10,622). Sanders has frequently criticized the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42491306/is-u-s-health-insurance-failing-the-sickest-and-poorest-new-study-reveals-49-million-americans-lack-proper-health-coverage">U.S. health care system</a> for its high costs and gaps in access.
Trump's comment about Canada becoming the 51st state was made during a meeting with Trudeau at Mar-a-Lago in November. The meeting, which followed Trump&#8217;s threats to impose a 25% tariff on Canadian goods, came at Trudeau's request. According to AP, the meeting was overall positive and covered subjects including trade, border security, fentanyl, defense, Ukraine, NATO, China and pipelines.&nbsp;

The notion of Canada becoming a U.S. state has been explored, typically as a thought experiment. Constitutional experts cited by the National Post highlighted the significant political, legal and cultural hurdles such a transition would face. Both nations must agree to monumental changes, including constitutional amendments in the U.S. and Canada relinquishing its sovereignty.
AP also pointed out that Canada is a vital economic partner to the U.S., with 77% of its exports going to American markets. Canada also supplies critical resources, such as energy and minerals, to the U.S., which would make any trade disruption mutually damaging.

While Trump's statehood comment may not have been serious, Sanders' response has reignited debates over health care in the U.S. Many Americans consider Canada's system a model for reducing costs and improving access. However, opponents argue that implementing such a system in the U.S. would be complicated and expensive.
Though the concept of Canada becoming the 51st state remains speculative at best, it has provided a platform for renewed discussion on trade, immigration and health care<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/41866438/donald-trumps-second-term-could-reshape-us-healthcare-system-with-major-impacts-on-affordable-care-act-and-medicare"> policy</a>. Whether prompted by Sanders&#8217; advocacy for universal health care or Trump's tariff threats, the conversation underscores the interconnectedness of U.S.-Canada relations.

Faraday Future Secured $30M In Cash Financing Commitments For AI Electric Vehicle Development

Reid Hoffman, LinkedIn co-founder and major Democratic donor, has revealed he has faced violent threats and had to hire security following accusations fueled by Elon Musk. 
What Happened: The claims, made by Musk on social media platform X and during interviews, allege a connection between Hoffman and Jeffrey Epstein, the late convicted sex offender.
Hoffman <a href="https://www.thetimes.com/business-money/companies/article/linkedin-founder-reid-hoffman-ive-had-threats-of-violence-since-musk-slanders-nfclq2s0r">told</a> The Sunday Times that Musk&#8217;s comments stemmed from &#8220;convictions with no evidence.&#8221; Musk, the CEO of Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), replied with the &#8220;100&#8221; emoji to an X post suggesting Hoffman had visited Epstein's private island.
Musk also implied during an interview with Tucker Carlson that Hoffman was one of the "billionaires behind Kamala" Harris, fearful of Epstein's client list being released.
"Elon's defamation makes me angry and sad," Hoffman said. "Angry because it is an ugly assault. Sad because it comes from someone whose entrepreneurial achievements I continue to admire." Hoffman declined to share details of the threats but confirmed he had hired security in response.

Hoffman admitted to a past interaction with Epstein, apologizing in 2019 for inviting him to a 2015 dinner party with tech luminaries, including Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Peter Thiel. At the time, Hoffman said he relied on assurances from MIT Media Lab that Epstein's involvement in fundraising had been vetted. 
He later expressed regret, writing to Axios, "By agreeing to participate in any fundraising activity where Epstein was present, I helped to repair his reputation and perpetuate injustice. For this, I am deeply regretful."
Hoffman has denied attending any Epstein-related events, stating, "I went to no Epstein parties. I didn't even know who he was."
The controversy emerges as Musk strengthens ties with President elect Donald Trump, co-chairing DOGE alongside entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy. 
Hoffman, a vocal supporter of Vice President Kamala Harris, has used X to oppose Trump's political campaigns, describing them as a "scam."

LinkedIn Cofounder Reid Hoffman Says Musk's Baseless Jeffrey Epstein Claims Forced Him To Hire Security: 'Elon's Defamation Makes Me Angry'

Chechen warlord Ramzan Kadyrov has accused Elon Musk of remotely disabling his Tesla Cybertruck, which Kadyrov claimed was a gift from Musk. The Chechen leader made the allegations in a Telegram post, criticizing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40504595/military-expert-calls-russian-president-allys-tesla-cybertruck-super-cool-but-useless-combat-vehicle">Musk's actions as "unmanly."</a>
What Happened: Kadyrov, who has governed Chechnya since 2007, claimed the modified Cybertruck, equipped with a machine gun, was intended for use in the war against Ukraine. "Elon Musk behaved badly. He gives expensive gifts from the heart, and then turns them off remotely," Kadyrov <a href="https://t.me/RKadyrov_95/5103">wrote</a>. He also noted in the post that he had to tow the vehicle after it was disabled. 
While Kadyrov asserted that Musk had personally gifted him the Cybertruck, Musk has categorically denied the claim. The mystery surrounding how Kadyrov obtained the vehicle is heightened by the fact that US sanctions prohibit direct export of the Cybertruck to Chechnya. 
Earlier in August, Kadyrov had publicly showcased the vehicle,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40432032/putin-ally-unveils-tesla-cybertruck-with-machine-gun-invites-musk-to-russia"> calling it a "Cyberbeast" and praising its technology</a>.

Experts have voiced skepticism about the utility of the Cybertruck in combat scenarios. Mark Cancian, a senior advisor with the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said the vehicle would be "totally useless" on the battlefield due to its weight and charging requirements. 
Despite Kadyrov's assertions of the truck's combat readiness, analysts doubt its practicality in war zones.
This incident highlights broader concerns regarding Tesla's vehicle security and the potential misuse of its products in conflict areas. 
The ability to remotely disable vehicles could raise questions about the implications for international security and Tesla's reputation as a global brand.

Putin Ally Claims Elon Musk 'Remotely Disabled' His Militarized Cybertruck Armed With Machine Gun: 'He Gives Expensive Gifts From Heart, And Then Turns Them Off'

Jeff Bezos, billionaire founder of Amazon, is reportedly set to marry his fiancée, Lauren Sanchez, next Saturday in a $600 million Winter Wonderland-themed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36631415/this-amazon-applicants-interview-answer-earned-her-a-seat-3-feet-away-from-amazons-bezos">wedding in Aspen, Colorado</a>.
What Happened: According to a report, the lavish celebration follows a private engagement dinner at Matsuhisa, a high-end sushi restaurant the couple reportedly bought out for two days ahead of their nuptials.
The extravagant event is expected to feature festive decor, twinkling lights, and holiday charm. The guest list for the star-studded wedding is rumored to include high-profile names like Bill Gates, Leonardo DiCaprio and Queen Rania of Jordan, who joined the couple for their engagement celebrations in Positano, Italy, earlier this year.
As per the report <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14217859/Jeff-Bezos-Lauren-Sanchez-wedding-plan-Aspen-date-is.html">by</a> The Daily Mail, Bezos, 60, and Sanchez, 54, became engaged in May 2023 aboard Bezos' mega-yacht. The billionaire proposed with a cushion-cut pink diamond ring estimated to be worth $2.5 million.
While the pair have not publicly confirmed their wedding date, the report signals a high-profile event reflective of their luxurious lifestyle.

The couple first went public with their relationship in 2019, shortly after Bezos announced his divorce from MacKenzie Scott. 
Sanchez, a former broadcast journalist, shares three children from previous relationships, including two with Hollywood talent mogul Patrick Whitesell and one with former NFL player Tony Gonzalez. Bezos shares three children with his ex-wife Scott.
News of the wedding comes as Amazon workers continue to strike across four states, marking the third consecutive day of demonstrations. 
Employees are protesting workplace conditions, a move that adds an interesting juxtaposition to Bezos' high-profile personal milestone.

President-elect Donald Trump has intensified his legal assault on the media, filing multiple lawsuits seeking damages for what <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42571395/trumps-djt-connection-drives-this-lesser-known-crypto-stocks-nearly-3x-surge-in-a-month" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">he claims are false or misleading reports</a>.
Trump has also leveraged civil anti-fraud laws, aiming to circumvent the typically high legal barriers in defamation cases involving public figures, reports Reuters.
Legal experts believe this broad approach could serve to punish media outlets for critical coverage and force them to face financial consequences.
One of the most high-profile cases involves The Des Moines Register and pollster J. Ann Selzer, filed in Iowa state court.

The lawsuit stems from a pre-election poll that showed Kamala Harris leading Trump by 3 percentage points in Iowa. Trump, who ultimately won the state by a wide margin, accuses the newspaper and Selzer of "brazen election interference," alleging they manipulated the poll and leaked it to Democratic operatives before publication.
While the Register acknowledged that the poll did not reflect the final election outcome, they stand by their reporting and consider the lawsuit without merit. Trump's legal team is seeking unspecified damages and demands an injunction to prevent deceptive practices related to the poll.
The lawsuit also targets Gannett, the parent company of The Des Moines Register, and accuses it of violating Iowa&#8217;s Consumer Fraud Act.

Trump Continues Court Battle With Media With Lawsuit Against Des Moines Register

Warren Buffett, the iconic investor and chairman of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>), is renowned for his timeless <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40151169/how-a-holiday-meeting-sparked-a-billion-dollar-friendship-between-bill-gates-warren-buffett">advice on wealth-building</a>.
What Happened: With a net worth of approximately $142 billion, Buffett's strategies resonate deeply with those seeking financial success. Among his key pieces of advice: start investing early, focus on small companies, and don't panic when stocks fluctuate.
During the 1999 annual shareholders' meeting, Buffett <a href="https://buffett.cnbc.com/video/1999/05/03/buffetts-advice-on-making-big-money.html">shared</a> the approach he would take if he were a recent graduate starting out with $10,000 to invest.
Buffett emphasizes the power of compound interest, likening it to rolling a small snowball down a long hill. 
"The trick is to have a very long hill, which means either starting very young or living, to be very old," he said during the shareholders' meeting. Early investing, he argues, allows your money to grow exponentially over time.
For those with limited funds, Buffett recommends focusing on smaller companies, where there's less competition from institutional investors. 
He noted that investing in good businesses, or "buying pieces of them" through stocks at attractive prices, is the key to multiplying wealth. 
Buffett said that if he were starting with $10,000 today, he'd begin by researching companies alphabetically, starting with names that begin with "A."

Buffett also stresses the importance of long-term thinking. "Some people should not own stocks at all because they just get too upset with price fluctuations. If you're gonna do dumb things because your stock goes down, you shouldn't own a stock at all," he <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2018/12/17/warren-buffett-tips-on-how-to-invest-in-the-stock-market.html">told</a> CNBC in 2018.
Stock prices will inevitably dip at times, but Buffett urges investors to remain patient and focus on the long-term value of their holdings. "Buy something you like, at a price you like, and then hold it for 20 years," he advised.
He further warns against obsessing over daily stock price fluctuations. Comparing stock ownership to real estate, he said, "If you bought a farm or an apartment house, you wouldn't get a quote on it every day or every week." Instead, Buffett recommends treating stocks as long-term investments, ignoring short-term market noise.
Buffett's principles—start early, think long-term, and invest in solid businesses—remain guiding lights for those looking to build lasting wealth.

Warren Buffett's Timeless Advice: 'If You're Gonna Do Dumb Things Because Your Stock Goes Down, You Shouldn't Own A Stock At All'

Imagine climbing to the top of Hollywood, making millions and living a life that screams "success" – then walking away from it all to live in a trailer park. It sounds like the plot of a quirky indie film. Still, it's the real-life story of Tom Shadyac, the director behind some of Hollywood's most iconic comedies, including Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and Bruce Almighty.
Shadyac <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42468734/nba-legend-shaq-owned-17-auntie-annes-franchises-but-sold-them-after-realizing-black-people-dont-like-pretzels-that-much">didn't just flirt with success</a>; he made a fortune off it. His films have grossed over $2 billion worldwide. He directed blockbusters like The Nutty Professor and Liar Liar, working with megastars like Jim Carrey and Eddie Murphy. Shadyac's net worth was around $50 million at his peak. According to Celebrity Net Worth in 2024, he owned a sprawling 17,000-square-foot mansion, a private jet and enough exotic cars to make Jay Leno jealous. And yet, Shadyac claims, "I was my least successful when I ‘had it all.'"

So, what makes a man trade in a mansion for a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/23/12/36364647/shark-tank-star-barbara-corcoran-owns-a-1-million-double-wide-mobile-home-she-calls-her-taj-mahal-wh">1,000-square-foot double-wide</a> in a Malibu trailer park?&nbsp;
Shadyac started in Hollywood as a joke writer for Bob Hope, but his big break came with Ace Ventura: Pet Detective in 1994. The film, made on a modest $15 million budget, grossed over $100 million and turned Jim Carrey into a household name. From there, Shadyac's career skyrocketed.
He directed hit after hit: The Nutty Professor ($273 million worldwide), Liar Liar ($302 million) and Bruce Almighty ($485 million). For Bruce Almighty, Shadyac even negotiated a piece of the back-end profits, raking in over $30 million for that film alone. At the time, Shadyac was living the ultimate Hollywood dream.
But it wasn't long before the dream started feeling more like a trap.

In 2007, Shadyac's life took a dramatic turn. A biking accident left him with a severe concussion and chronic symptoms like migraines and hypersensitivity to light and sound. For months, he was essentially confined to his mansion, his mental health spiraling. He later admitted, "I felt suicidal at points. It was a disaster."
During this dark time, Shadyac had an epiphany. His extravagant lifestyle – private jets, luxury cars, a massive home – felt hollow. The things that were supposed to signify success had become "trappings."
Shadyac decided to give away his fortune in a move that shocked Hollywood. He sold his mansion, his cars and his jet. He then started <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/01/36830715/jeff-bezoss-ex-wife-mackenzie-scott-has-given-over-16-billion-to-charity-since-her-divorce-as-jeff-b">donating millions to causes close to his heart</a>, like homelessness, environmental conservation and animal welfare. He even helped fund a homeless shelter in Charlottesville, Virginia and supported St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.
Trending: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.
Shadyac moved into a trailer park in Malibu, where his modest home stands in dramatic contrast to the lives of Hollywood's elite. He says the decision was liberating:
"The more I give away, the wealthier I feel. For everything I ‘gave up,' so much more was returned."
Shadyac didn't just change his ZIP code; he changed his entire worldview. In 2011, he directed I Am, a documentary exploring two fundamental questions: "What's wrong with the world?" and "What can we do about it?" The film examines the pursuit of happiness and the consequences of excessive materialism.
He executive-produced Happy, another documentary examining what brings joy across different cultures. These projects reflect Shadyac's belief that life isn't about accumulating wealth but building connections and giving back.
Trending: These five entrepreneurs are worth $223 billion –<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-homes-private-credit-fund"> they all believe in one platform that offers a 7-9% target yield with monthly dividends</a>
As he puts it:
"No one is ever looking to have a more robust IRA when they are on their deathbed. They are saying, ‘I am so happy that I had the opportunity to love this family, to be a part of something.'"
Shadyac's story reminds us that success isn't just about what you earn; it's about what you give back. While his Hollywood peers chase box office records and six-figure paychecks, Shadyac has found peace in simplicity.
It's easy to dismiss his decision as extreme, but Shadyac sees it differently. To him, living a life centered on giving and purpose is far more fulfilling than jet-setting and luxury cars. "The trappings of fame and fortune are exactly that – a trapping," he says.
From the director's chair to a double-wide in Malibu, Tom Shadyac has proved that happiness isn't about having it all but knowing what truly matters.

'I Was My Least Successful When I Had It All' – Ace Ventura Director Made $50 Million Then Gave It All Away To Live In A Trailer Park

Anthony Scaramucci, founder of SkyBridge Capital, has dismissed concerns surrounding Michael Saylor and MicroStrategy Inc., suggesting fears of a potential collapse due to Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) volatility are exaggerated. 
What Happened: In an interview on Friday, Scaramucci pointed to Saylor's long-term debt strategy as evidence of MicroStrategy's resilience.
"People think if Bitcoin crashes, he is going to implode," Bloomberg quoted Scaramucci <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-20/scaramucci-says-concern-over-microstrategy-s-debt-is-overblown?sref=TBDibEcD">saying</a> during the interview. "But if you really study his balance sheet, he has long, long-term debt, and he has rolling long-term debt. You'd have to have a systemic collapse in Bitcoin lasting six or seven years to flash him out." 
MicroStrategy's bold bet on Bitcoin has driven a more than 400% surge in its stock this year, while the company financed purchases with billions in convertible debt.
The company currently has $7.2 billion in outstanding convertible debt, including $6 billion raised in 2024 alone. While some worry Bitcoin's price drops could force MicroStrategy to offload its holdings, further depressing prices, Scaramucci argued this narrative is overblown, reports the outlet. 
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42378636/scaramucci-bitcoin-is-a-volatile-asset-but-ready-for-prime-time-institutional-investing">Scaramucci: Bitcoin Is a Volatile Asset, But &#8216;Ready for Prime Time Institutional Investing&#8217;</a>
"The narrative of him being forced to sell hundreds of thousands of tokens into the market, I think it's a forced narrative," he said, comparing MicroStrategy's structure to that of Lehman Brothers' during the 2008 financial crisis.
MicroStrategy remains a top holding of the First Trust SkyBridge Crypto Industry and Digital Economy ETF, sub-advised by SkyBridge Capital. Scaramucci praised Saylor's innovative approach, saying, "He's created this positive flywheel by issuing debt and equity."
Why It Matters: Bitcoin has recently pulled back from an all-time high of $108,000, retreating amid profit-taking and market volatility. Scaramucci anticipates potential corrections in the 30-40% range, which could bring Bitcoin's price to $60,000-$70,000. 
However, he remains optimistic about Bitcoin's long-term trajectory, citing favorable regulatory developments and U.S. exchange-traded funds investing directly in the cryptocurrency.
"Could it get to $18 trillion dollars in market cap?" Scaramucci speculated. "We believe that it could. Is it a direct line to $18 trillion? No."
