Tech billionaire Elon Musk is under legal scrutiny for his role as a senior advisor to President Donald Trump, with allegations of exercising &#8220;virtually unchecked power&#8221;.
What Happened: The White House clarified on Monday that Musk is not a part of the Department of Government Efficiency team but serves as a senior advisor to the President. This clarification comes as the Trump administration faces a lawsuit alleging Musk&#8217;s influence is excessive for a non-elected, non-Senate-confirmed individual, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/elon-musk-doge-white-house-layoffs-0fcdbb692717c63203ef971cb9807b35">reported</a> the Associated Press.
A lawsuit filed by several Democratic states seeks to restrict Musk and the DOGE team from accessing government systems, arguing that Musk&#8217;s influence contravenes the Constitution. The Trump administration, however, maintains that Musk is not a DOGE employee and does not have the authority to make government decisions himself, as stated by Joshua Fisher, director of the White House Office of Administration.
Fisher said that Musk has &#8220;no actual authority to make government decisions himself.&#8221;
Musk, known for his vocal support for DOGE&#8217;s work, has promoted it on his social media platform X and during a public appearance at the White House. The specifics of his role, though, continue to be a point of contention in the ongoing lawsuit.
Judge Tanya Chutkan was not convinced in Monday&#8217;s hearing when Department of Justice lawyers said that Musk did not have any formal powers. She said, &#8220;I think you stretch too far. I disagree with you there.&#8221;

Why It Matters: This legal challenge comes in the wake of Musk&#8217;s involvement in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43774570/elon-musk-sparks-debate-on-social-security-data-after-report-finds-millions-of-alive-centenarians-in-america">debate on Social Security data accuracy</a>. Musk shared statistics showing millions of Americans over 100 years old listed as alive in the system, sparking a discussion about the accuracy of Social Security Administration data.
Musk&#8217;s claim that all DOGE actions were posted to the official DOGE website was met with skepticism by fellow billionaire Mark Cuban when the site was found to be blank. As noted by <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43801493/this-says-it-all-says-mark-cuban-as-doge-website-was-still-blank-despite-musks-claim-that-all-department-actions-were-posted-there">Benzinga</a>, the DOGE website, which Musk claimed served as a central location for all departmental updates, was empty for weeks, leading to criticism of DOGE&#8217;s transparency efforts.

Elon Musk Has 'No Actual Authority To Make Government Decisions,' Says Trump White House On DOGE

Roughly 75,000 federal workers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43314808/trump-memo-heard-around-the-world-how-us-economy-could-adjust-to-buyouts-for-federal-workers">accepted the Trump administration&#8217;s buyout offer</a>, falling short of White House expectations but still marking a reduction in government workforce.
The program, which Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) chief Elon Musk called &#8220;Fork in the Road,&#8221; attracted about 3% of the 2.4 million civilian federal employees, below the administration&#8217;s 5% to 10% target, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-13/musk-s-buyout-falls-short-as-75-000-federal-workers-took-deal?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;embedded-checkout=true">according to Bloomberg</a>.&nbsp;
The initiative allows workers to leave in February while remaining on the federal payroll through September.

</ul>
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt defended the results Thursday. &#8220;I&#8217;m not so sure that we didn&#8217;t hit the numbers we wanted — 75,000 people accepted the buyout program,&#8221; she said. &#8220;That&#8217;s going to save millions of dollars for the American taxpayers, and that&#8217;s exactly what we wanted.&#8221;
The program, influenced by DOGE, mirrors Musk's strategy at X Twitter. Even the program&#8217;s deadline reflected Musk&#8217;s style, closing at 4:20 p.m. PT, a number that Musk frequently references.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order Tuesday directing agency heads to &#8220;promptly undertake preparations to initiate large-scale reductions in force,&#8221; with exceptions for public safety, immigration enforcement and law enforcement.

'Fork In The Road'—75,000 Federal Workers Took Musk's Offer, But Was It Enough?

The Department of Government Efficiency, the White House agency led by Elon Musk, has been making headlines every day, but not always for the right reasons. When Musk claimed that all DOGE actions were posted to the official DOGE <a href="https://doge.gov/">website</a>, many were surprised to find the site completely blank.
Musk defended DOGE&#8217;s transparency efforts during a recent press conference in the Oval Office with President Donald Trump. However, the DOGE website, which Musk claimed served as a central location for all departmental updates, was empty for weeks, as critics soon noted. Instead of showing work or updates, it only had a simple page with a note about big changes coming.

</ul>
This contradiction didn't go unnoticed. Mark Cuban, who has long supported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43585860/mark-cuban-says-he-backs-government-efficiency-but-questions-elon-musks-doge-initiatives-transparency-if-you-have-nothing-to-hide-hide-nothing">reducing government size</a> and improving efficiency, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43595087/not-so-brilliant-says-mark-cuban-as-nearly-7-million-in-taxpayer-money-flows-to-elon-musks-doge-in-just-2-weeks">called out Musk</a> on social media, <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/mcuban.bsky.social/post/3lhx5w4d3tk2z">saying</a>, &#8220;This says it all.&#8221; A couple of days before that, Cuban <a href="https://x.com/mcuban/status/1888711577047880106">suggested</a> that inviting Democrats to work alongside DOGE could enhance transparency, adding, "If you have nothing to hide, hide nothing."
Following mounting criticism, the DOGE website was finally updated on Feb. 12. It now features sections on government workforce data, and regulations, along with DOGE's posts from X. Notably, it was still missing the Savings section which reads, &#8220;Receipts coming over the weekend!&#8221; and many blog posts were backdated, raising questions about when they were actually published.
Trending: If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund">7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it</a>?
The website faced further issues after its rushed launch. At least two pages were defaced by hackers who appeared to have accessed an open database used by the site. Two messages appeared on separate pages, reading, &#8220;this is a joke of a .gov site&#8221; and &#8220;THESE &#8216;EXPERTS&#8217; LEFT THEIR DATABASE OPEN -roro.&#8221;
DOGE highlights recent contract cancellations, such as ending DEI programs and cutting media subscriptions, claiming to have saved taxpayers over $150 million. However, concerns remain about the accuracy and transparency of these figures. The site even acknowledges potential data errors, promising to improve over time. As a note under the Meet the U.S. Government section points out, &#8220;This is DOGE&#8217;s effort to create a comprehensive, government-wide org chart. This is an enormous effort, and there are likely some errors or omissions. We will continue to strive for maximum accuracy over time.&#8221;

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
Musk&#8217;s role at DOGE has also sparked debate. As an unelected official with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41414968/spacex-wins-major-us-space-force-contract-worth-734m-for-national-security-missions">significant business interests</a>, there are worries about conflicts of interest, especially since many of the agencies affected by DOGE's cuts oversee industries tied to Musk. Additionally, Musk&#8217;s federal salary remains undisclosed, adding to transparency concerns.
The launch of DOGE and its website has been anything but smooth. While Musk promises efficiency, transparency and reform, critics argue that the initiative is more about political influence than practical savings.

If You Invested $1000 In This Stock 5 Years Ago, You Would Have This Much Today

Wall Street loves complexity. It thrives on convoluted theories, machine-learning algorithms, and a parade of PhDs trying to reinvent the wheel.
But let's cut through the noise and focus on what works.
Marcel Schwartz and Matthias Hanauer's recent study on formula investing doesn't introduce a brand-new strategy. Instead, it tests four well-known formulas—Piotroski's F-Score, Greenblatt's Magic Formula, Carlisle's Acquirer's Multiple, and van Vliet's Conservative Formula—across decades of market history.
And, guess what?
The old-school methods still work, but not without caveats.
The Four Investing Formulas
<ol start="1">
<li>Piotroski's F-Score – Developed by Joseph Piotroski, this formula evaluates companies based on nine fundamental criteria, assessing profitability, financial strength, and operating efficiency. It's a tool to separate fundamentally strong value stocks from potential value traps.</li>
<li>Greenblatt's Magic Formula – Introduced by Joel Greenblatt, this formula ranks stocks based on earnings yield and return on capital, aiming to identify companies that are both cheap and high-quality.</li>
<li>Carlisle's Acquirer's Multiple – Created by Tobias Carlisle, this formula focuses purely on valuation, using enterprise value-to-operating earnings to find deeply undervalued companies.</li>
<li>van Vliet's Conservative Formula – This strategy ranks stocks based on low volatility, strong momentum, and high net payout yield, aiming to balance risk and reward with a more defensive approach.</li>
</ol>
The takeaway from this study is that all four formulas produce market-beating results. That's important because it confirms what the best value investors already know: investing systematically in stocks that are cheap, high-quality, or low-volatility works over time. The problem? The formulas don't always outperform, and in some periods, they take a serious beating.
Let's break it down. The Acquirer's Multiple, which focuses on deeply undervalued stocks based on enterprise value, produced the highest raw returns when ranking stocks by deciles. That aligns with what we already know—buying cheap works. But the Conservative Formula, which emphasizes low-volatility, high-momentum, and net payout yield, produced the best risk-adjusted returns and CAPM alpha. Meanwhile, the Magic Formula showed the best ability to generate excess return after controlling for common market factors.
What does this tell us? First, valuation matters, but there's a tradeoff. Cheap stocks may offer higher returns, but they're often the ones that suffer the most in downturns. Meanwhile, combining factors like momentum and quality can reduce risk while still delivering solid returns. This is classic value investing wisdom: don't just buy cheap stocks—buy the right cheap stocks.
Here's the reality: the formulas work, but they're not invincible. The study finds that these strategies, while still beating the market post-2000, have shown performance decay. Why? Two big reasons. First, markets have become more efficient. The rise of quant funds, increased liquidity, and algorithmic trading have reduced the effectiveness of simple factor-based strategies. Second, behavioral biases haven't disappeared, but they evolve. Investors aren't blindly ignoring quality and profitability as much as they used to.
Look at 2018-2020, a period referred to as the &#8220;Quant Winter.&#8221; Value strategies, including formula-based ones, got crushed. The Acquirer's Multiple and F-Score strategies took heavy hits, largely because the value factor was getting slaughtered while expensive growth stocks ran wild. This is why value investors need discipline—sticking to the strategy when it's painful is what leads to long-term outperformance.
If you're managing your own money, which formula should you follow? The study suggests that, in the modern market, a combination of formulas might be best. The Magic Formula's blend of valuation and profitability still holds up well, making it a strong candidate. If you're a more conservative investor, the Conservative Formula offers lower drawdowns and higher risk-adjusted returns, which makes sense for those who prioritize stability.
But if you're a deep-value investor looking for the biggest bargains, the Acquirer's Multiple still delivers the highest raw returns, assuming you have the stomach for the volatility. Meanwhile, the F-Score remains a useful tool to filter out the garbage among value stocks.
Formula investing works, but it's not a free lunch. It requires patience, discipline, and the ability to endure tough periods. The key takeaway from this study is that even in a market dominated by algorithms and quant funds, these simple, systematic approaches still provide an edge. The game hasn't changed—it's just evolved. Smart investors will adapt, refine, and stick to strategies that have been tested across decades. As always, the real money is made by those who can weather the storms and stay the course.
