Latest news for  (OTC:ISPHF) Stock

Jeff Bezos‘&nbsp;Blue Origin&nbsp;said on Thursday that the company has postponed the first launch of its New Glenn rocket to orbit to no earlier than Jan. 12.
What Happened: Blue Origin was previously looking to launch New Glenn on Friday. The company on Thursday said that they have pushed the date due to a high sea state in the Atlantic where it hopes to land the vehicle&#8217;s booster. 
The three-hour launch window on Sunday will now open at 1 a.m. EST.
The key objective for the mission is to reach orbit safely. The company is also looking to land the booster of the vehicle in the Atlantic Ocean after launch. The company said in a statement that the booster landing is "ambitious but we are going for it"
&#8220;This is our first flight and we&#8217;ve prepared rigorously for it,&#8221; said&nbsp;Jarrett Jones, SVP, New Glenn. &#8220;But no amount of ground testing or mission simulations is a replacement for flying this rocket. It&#8217;s time to fly. No matter what happens, we&#8217;ll learn, refine, and apply that knowledge to our next launch.&#8221;
Why It Matters:&nbsp;The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) authorized the first launch of Blue Origin&#8217;s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40868010/jeff-bezos-blue-origin-names-new-glenn-1s-first-booster-so-youre-telling-me-theres-a-chance-heres-wh" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New Glenn vehicle</a>&nbsp;in late December. The commercial space launch license,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42712726/jeff-bezos-blue-origin-gets-license-from-faa-for-new-glenn-maiden-launch" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">valid for five years</a>, allows Blue Origin to conduct orbital missions from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida with the New Glenn.
New Glenn is a reusable heavy-lift rocket named after&nbsp;John Glenn, the first American to orbit Earth. The development of the vehicle, expected to compete with SpaceX&#8217;s Falcon launch vehicle, has been delayed for years.
New Glenn, unlike Blue Origin&#8217;s New Shepard vehicle, can reach the Earth&#8217;s orbit and beyond.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38909990/90-year-old-breaks-record-as-oldest-astronaut-with-blue-origins-launch" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New Shepard</a>, meanwhile, can only reach the edge of space.
New Glenn&#8217;s first launch will mark the rocket's first National Security Space Launch certification flight. It will carry the company's Blue Ring Pathfinder – developed by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38909990/90-year-old-breaks-record-as-oldest-astronaut-with-blue-origins-launch" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Blue Origin's</a>&nbsp;In-Space Systems business unit – as a payload.

Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin Pushes New Glenn Launch To No Earlier Than Sunday Due To Adverse Weather Conditions

Anthony Scaramucci, CEO of investment firm SkyBridge Capital, discussed his take-profit strategy for cryptocurrencies on Thursday, stating that he will not sell his Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) but rather target altcoins such as Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) in the long run.
What happened: During an interview with the Altcoin Daily, the popular cryptocurrency advocate was asked about signals he looks for before deciding to offload some of his holdings.

</figure>
"I think the market will mature around Bitcoin and there will be Bitcoin lending and there will be Bitcoin earning that is similar to the banking industry," Scaramucci responded.
He deemed Bitcoin as a form of hard currency, or cash, around which markets will mature, and hence he won't sell his Bitcoin anytime soon.
Scaramucci revealed that a little over 55% of his net wealth is tied up in Bitcoin.

As far as altcoins were concerned, Scaramucci confessed that he has set price targets, but they are very high.
He set a goal of $2,500 for Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>), the sixth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.&nbsp;
"I don&#8217;t see that happening today, but I see that over five or eight years," the former White House Communications Director stated.
Scaramucci added that he has also staked Solana for long-term returns.&nbsp;
Why It Matters: A passionate Bitcoin advocate, Scaramucci expected the apex cryptocurrency t<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42024635/scaramucci-trumps-crypto-support-could-push-bitcoin-to-150k">o surge to $150,000</a> should the regulatory environment turn favorable under the incoming Donald Trump administration.
Moreover, he has defended MicroStrategy&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42638902/scaramucci-defends-microstrategys-bitcoin-strategy-predicts-long-term-crypto-growth">leveraged Bitcoin buying strategy</a>, arguing that the narrative that Bitcoin drops will force the company to liquidate its stash is exaggerated.

The CMC Crypto Fear and Greed&nbsp;Index&nbsp;has plummeted below 50, reaching its lowest point since Oct. 14. This drop coincides with&nbsp;Bitcoin&#8216;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) price slipping under $92,000, marking a notable change in market sentiment.
What Happened: As of 3:20 am ET on Friday,&nbsp;Bitcoin was trading at $94,708.791 while the index stood at 42.&nbsp;The CMC Fear and Greed&nbsp;Index, a proprietary tool by&nbsp;<a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/fear-and-greed-index/">CoinMarketCap</a>, gauges&nbsp;the prevailing sentiment in the&nbsp;cryptocurrency market. This index, ranging from 0 to 100, reflects&nbsp;the emotional state of the&nbsp;market, influencing investor behavior.
A lower index value signifies extreme fear, while a higher value suggests extreme greed. The index aids investors in assessing whether the market is potentially undervalued or overvalued. This recent dip in the index suggests a shift towards fear among market participants, possibly impacting buying and selling decisions.
Why It Matters: The recent downturn in Bitcoin&#8217;s price and market sentiment comes amid a backdrop of volatility in the cryptocurrency space. As&nbsp;Bitcoin ETFs&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42895703/bitcoin-etfs-turn-one-90-gains-volatility-trump-era-hopes-for-2025">celebrated their first anniversary</a>, they have demonstrated the unpredictable nature of the crypto market. The&nbsp;Grayscale Bitcoin Trust&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GBTC#NYSE">GBTC</a>) and&nbsp;iShares Bitcoin Trust&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBIT#NASDAQ">IBIT</a>) have seen fluctuating fortunes, reflecting the broader market&#8217;s instability.
Additionally, economist Peter Schiff has recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/42894166/peter-schiff-counters-bitcoins-safe-haven-narrative-amid-forecast-of-impending-fiat-train-wreck-there-is-no-riskier-asset">criticized Bitcoin&#8217;s reputation</a> as a safe haven asset. In a statement, Schiff argued that Bitcoin is &#8220;the riskiest asset,&#8221; challenging its perceived role as a refuge during economic uncertainty. His comments underscore the ongoing debate about Bitcoin&#8217;s position in the financial ecosystem, particularly as traditional safe havens like gold remain favored by some investors.
Price Action: As per<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com"> Benzinga Pro</a> data, in the past seven days, Bitcoin has dropped by 1.8%, Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) fell by 0.3% while Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) saw a 3.9% decline, as of Friday pre-market hours.

Crypto Fear And Greed Index Hits Lowest Level Since October As Bitcoin Falls Under $92K, Dogecoin And Shiba Inu Trade In Red

EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) said on Thursday that it will forgive all autopilot and full self-driving driver assistance technology &#8220;strikeouts&#8221; to help people evacuate from the wildfires in the Los Angeles area.
What Happened: A strikeout is when the driving automation system disengages for the remainder of a trip after the driver receives several audio and visual warnings for inattentiveness. Upon receiving five strikeouts, the technology will be suspended for a week. 
Both autopilot and FSD assist driving but require active driver supervision. Strikeouts are a feature to ensure that drivers pay attention to the road when the technology is engaged. 
&#8220;To support people evacuating from the fires in the LA area, all Autopilot &amp; FSD Supervised strikes are being forgiven in the state of California,&#8221; Tesla said on Thursday on social media platform X, without detailing how long the waiver would last. 
Why It Matters: California has been battling multiple wildfires over the last few days. The Palisades fire, which started on Tuesday, is spread across nearly 20,000 acres in Los Angeles, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.
As per a recent report from Forbes, the death toll due to the fires has <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/antoniopequenoiv/2025/01/08/california-wildfire-live-updates-officials-say-5-dead-as-another-fire-breaks-out-in-hollywood-hills/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">increased to</a> ten.
Elon Musk&#8217;s SpaceX has also extended support to evacuation efforts. The company said on Thursday that it is providing a month of free service for those impacted by the fires or looking to support response and recovery efforts in evacuated areas. The company is also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/01/42892886/spacex-ceo-elon-musk-offers-free-starlink-terminals-to-los-angeles-areas-affected-by-wildfires">providing free Starlink kits</a> to agencies, organizations, and shelters, it said. 
Starlink and T-Mobile have also enabled basic texting through the former&#8217;s Direct-to-Cell satellites to combat the lack of cell networks. This allows people on the T-Mobile network to text their near and dear or 911.

Netflix Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) premiere of "WWE Monday Night Raw" has drawn a much larger audience than its previous home on the USA Network.
What Happened: The debut of WWE Monday Night Raw on Netflix attracted 2.6 million households in the U.S., more than doubling the 1.2 million household average it had on the USA Network in 2024, <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/wwe-raw-ratings-netflix-premiere-1236104946/">reported</a> The Hollywood Reporter.&nbsp;
While total viewer numbers for Monday&#8217;s episode were not available, the show achieved 4.9 million views globally across Monday and Tuesday in regions where Netflix distributes it, including Canada, the U.K., Latin America, and Australia.

Netflix's 'WWE Monday Night Raw' Premiere More Than Doubles 2024 USA Network Audience

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed a decline in overall market sentiment, while the index remained in the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone on Wednesday.
U.S. stocks settled mostly higher on Wednesday, with the Dow Jones index gaining more than 100 points during the session.
Minutes from the Federal Reserve&#8217;s December meeting released on Wednesday show officials are uncertain about the path of future rate cuts, as President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s policies and how they could affect inflation remain unknown.
Acuity Brands Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AYI#NYSE">AYI</a>) reported weaker-than-expected revenue for its fiscal first quarter.
On the economic data front, U.S. private businesses added 122,000 workers to their payrolls in December down from 146,000 in November and versus expectations of 140,000. U.S. initial jobless claims fell by 10,000 to 201,000 in the week ending Jan. 4, recording the lowest level in eleven months and versus market estimates of 218,000.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with consumer staples, health care, and materials stocks recording the biggest gains on Wednesday. However, energy and communication services stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session lower.
The Dow Jones closed higher by around 107 points to 42,635.20 on Wednesday. The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.16% to 5,918.25, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.06% at 19,478.88 during Wednesday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBA#NASDAQ">WBA</a>), Constellation Brands Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STZ#NYSE">STZ</a>), and Delta Air Lines Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 32.4, the index remained in the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone on Wednesday, versus a prior reading of 35.8.
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.

Delta Air Lines, Walgreens And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Friday

Apollo Global Management Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APO#NYSE">APO</a>) is weighing a ¥1.5 trillion ($9.5 billion) equity stake in a management buyout of Seven &amp; i Holdings Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SVNDY#OTC">SVNDY</a>). 
What Happened: The deal would see Apollo collaborating with the founding Ito family and Itochu Corp. to strengthen domestic control of Seven &amp; i, a global retail conglomerate known for operating 7-Eleven convenience stores, supermarkets, department stores, food services, financial services, and e-commerce platforms, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-10/apollo-weighs-9-5-billion-stake-in-seven-i-management-buyout">reported</a>, citing people familiar with the matter.
It will be part of a bigger buyout attempt first estimated to cost 9 trillion Japanese Yen ($60.3 billion). The investment trumps the 7.5 trillion Japanese Yen ($50.25 billion) takeover bid by Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANCTF#OTC">ANCTF</a>).
Ito family and Itochu are considering pledging 500 billion Japanese Yen ($3.35 billion) and 1 trillion Japanese Yen ($6.7 billion) respectively, and major Japanese banks are providing supplemental funding.
Seven &amp; i shares rose 7.4% on the news, but its market value of 6.3 trillion Japanese Yen ($42.21 billion) is still below both proposed valuations. The company&#8217;s CFO Yoshimichi Maruyama confirmed Thursday that a special board committee is considering both the Couche-Tard and Ito family proposals.
The deal is a significant change in Japan&#8217;s corporate landscape, as domestic interests rally to retain control of the 7-Eleven operator. The company was recently added to Japan&#8217;s Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act watchlist, though Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki indicated this wouldn&#8217;t <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/09/40902307/7-eleven-store-operator-seven-i-reclassified-under-japans-investment-rules-what-does-it-mean-for-39b">necessarily impede foreign investment</a>.
Seven &amp; i Holdings is undergoing strategic restructuring and expansion while facing investor pressure from takeover bids, including a counterproposal from a member of its founding family. 
Apollo 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: &#8220;The current MBO proposal is already high, so the fact that they've found another source of funding is a big positive for shareholders,&#8221; said Shun Tanaka, senior analyst at SBI Securities Co., suggesting it could spark higher competing offers.
Details of the investment structure are still under negotiation, but the consortium hopes to complete its proposal before Seven &amp; i&#8217;s May shareholders&#8217; meeting. The company is also simultaneously pushing for a restructuring plan that would separate its convenience store operations from other retail businesses.
Price Action: Seven &amp; I Holdings is currently trading at 2,509 Japanese Yen ($15.84) on Friday, gaining 5.66% for the day. Over the past year, the stock has risen by 31.78%.

Apollo Weighs $9.5 Billion Stake In Seven & i Buyout, Joining Ito Family's $60 Billion Deal: Report

California-based property and casualty insurance stocks and exchange-traded funds are in focus as the Los Angeles <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42899953/five-dead-in-los-angeles-wildfires-utilities-face-scrutiny">wildfires</a> have wreaked havoc and ruined over 10,000 structures.
What Happened: As five fires continue to burn LA County, the Eaton and Palisades fires have caused significant damage, destroying over 10,000 structures, including homes, businesses, and smaller buildings, <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2025/01/09/los-angeles-california-wildfires-thursday-live-updates/77560180007/">reported </a>USA Today. The County of Los Angeles Department of Medical Examiner said that 10 fire-related deaths have been reported. 
Allstate Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>) and Travelers Companies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>) are prominent California-based property insurers. As <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42899028/la-wildfire-damages-estimated-above-52-billion-california-property-insurance-crisis">reported</a> by Benzinga, many homes in the affected areas are insured by the state-backed insurer of last resort, the California FAIR Plan.
California&#8217;s insurance market was already in crisis before the recent wildfires. Insurers withdrew from the state due to mounting losses from increasingly frequent and severe fires. This issue was highlighted by actor James Woods, who <a href="https://twitter.com/RealJamesWoods/status/1876875152236941482">revealed </a>that his neighborhood recently lost its insurance coverage.

Why It Matters: AccuWeather <a href="https://www.accuweather.com/en/blogs-webinars/california-wildfires-52-57b-damage-estimate-accuweather-report/1731718">estimates</a> the economic toll of the Southern California wildfires at a staggering $52 billion to $57 billion. This figure includes damage to property and the disruption of daily life. Chief Meteorologist Jonathan Porter warns that this could become the most devastating wildfire in California history if the fires continue to spread.

 During the three-month period ended December 31, 2024, annualized production output was approximately 103% of the Company's estimated full capacity of approximately $30 million per year. This production output helped reduce the backlog of orders to approximately $4.4 million as of January 1, 2025 from approximately $9.4 million as of January 1, 2024. The Company believes that the current backlog reflects strong demand as distributors work to replenish their buffer stocks and as end-users place orders in advance of peak calving season during the first quarter.
