American EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is recalling over 1.2 million vehicles in China including both imported and domestically produced vehicles.
What Happened:&nbsp;The company is recalling 335,716 vehicles including imported Model S, X vehicles, and domestically manufactured Model 3 and Y vehicles citing concerns about a rearview camera malfunction. The vehicle may not possibly display a reversing image, increasing the risk of a crash, according to a recall notice published on China&#8217;s State Administration for Market Regulation website.
The company is also recalling 871,087 Model 3, Y vehicles citing concerns about the electronic power steering function. The power steering function may fail and pose a safety hazard, the notice said. 
The company will fix both issues via over-the-air software updates. 
Why It Matters: Tesla recalled <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/42909595/tesla-recalls-over-239000-vehicles-over-rearview-camera-image-display-issues">239,382 vehicles in the U.S.</a> over concerns of loss of rearview camera image earlier this month. The recall population included&nbsp;2024-25 Model 3 and Model S vehicles and 2023-25 Model X and Model Y.
The American EV maker has a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/42907586/tesla-model-3-prices-rise-in-china-as-refreshed-model-y-debuts">gigafactory in Shanghai </a>which manufactures Model Y and Model 3 for both sale within the country and export to regions including Europe.
According to Tesla&#8217;s latest quarterly report, the factory in Shanghai has a currently installed annual vehicle capacity of over 950,000 vehicles. The factory produced its 3 millionth vehicle in October and exported its 1 millionth vehicle in September.

Tesla Recalls Over 1.2 Million Vehicles In China Over Rear View Camera Malfunction, Power Steering Failure Concerns

After U.S. President Donald Trump announced the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43121798/elon-musk-says-project-stargate-doesnt-actually-have-the-money-after-trump-announces-500-billion-ai-investment-led-by-softbank-oracle-and-openai">ambitious $500 billion</a> Stargate project, its initial equity funders SoftBank Group (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SFTBY#OTC">SFTBY</a>), OpenAI, Oracle Corp., and MGX along with its technology partners Nvidia Corp. and Microsoft Corp. have been in focus. We examine which of these U.S.-listed beneficiaries are the least expensive to own by the investors.
What Happened: Oracle, Nvidia, and Microsoft are the three U.S.-listed companies that are directly involved in the Stargate project.
According to the data cumulated from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>, Microsoft and Oracle are valued less than two times their peers based on the forward price-to-earnings ratio. While Nvidia&#8217;s valuation is just slightly lower than its peers.
Based on the forward P/E:
<ul>
<li>Oracle is 2.72 times less expensive than its industry average.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Microsoft is 2.41 times cheaper as compared to its peers.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Nvidia is just 1.08 times less expensive compared to its industry average.</li>
</ul>

Why It Matters: The project, announced Tuesday during a White House briefing with President Trump, marks a collaboration between OpenAI, SoftBank, and Oracle to create a vast artificial intelligence infrastructure across the U.S.
The primary technology partners involved are Arm, Microsoft, Nvidia, Oracle, and OpenAI. The development is already underway in Texas, starting with a 500,000-square-foot data center in Abilene, with additional locations being assessed nationwide as final agreements are being made for more campuses.
The initiative aims to invest $100 billion right away, with plans for nine additional facilities and the possibility of expanding to 20 locations.

Musk said in an X post dated Jan. 22 that &#8220;They don&#8217;t actually have the money.&#8221;

Earnings Scheduled For January 24, 2025

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed further improvement in overall market sentiment, while the index moved to the &#8220;Neutral&#8221; zone on Thursday.
U.S. stocks settled higher on Thursday, with the S&amp;P 500 surging to record highs during the session after President Donald Trump called for cheaper oil prices.
Trump addressed the World Economic Forum via videoconference, advocating for expanded oil &amp; gas production and proposing a 15% corporate tax rate for businesses relocating manufacturing to the U.S. He also reiterated plans to impose tariffs on countries with large trade deficits with the U.S., issuing warnings to Europe, Canada, and China.
American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>) reported better-than-expected fourth-quarter 2024 results but issued a weak outlook. GE Aerospace (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>) reported stronger-than-expected earnings for its fourth quarter.
On the economic data front, U.S. initial jobless claims increased by 6,000 from the previous week to 223,000 in the week ending Jan. 18, compared to market estimates of 220,000.
All sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with health care, real estate, and industrials stocks recording gains on Thursday.
The Dow Jones closed higher by around 408 points to 44,565.07 on Thursday. The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.53% to 6,118.71, while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.22% at 20,053.68 during Thursday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from HCA Healthcare Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HCA#NYSE">HCA</a>), Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>, )) and American Express Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 47, the index moved to the &#8220;Neutral&#8221; zone on Thursday, versus a prior reading of 42.3.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.
