The company has announced a rebranding of its division, previously known as &#8216;BlackBerry IoT,&#8217; renaming it &#8216;QNX&#8217; and relaunching the brand to strengthen its presence in the automotive and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/ac42763883/blackberry-unveils-strategic-relaunch-of-qnx-brand-to-reinforce-leadership-in-automotive-and-gene" rel="noreferrer noopener">embedded industries.</a>
The move, which stems from feedback from customers, partners, and employees, marks a milestone in QNX&#8217;s history, emphasizing its role in powering next-generation Software-Defined Vehicles and mission-critical systems.
Acquired by BlackBerry in 2010, QNX has become a prominent player in real-time operating systems. In the last fiscal year, QNX launched the QNX SDP 8.0, a scalable foundation for next-generation automotive and IoT systems, alongside QNX Sound, an audio innovation platform for SDVs, and QNX Everywhere, an initiative designed to spur a more open development environment for QNX technologies.
John J. Giamatteo, CEO of BlackBerry, highlighted that this rebranding is part of the company&#8217;s strategy to increase visibility and leadership in these industries, with a focus on growth and innovation.

QNX technology is already integrated into over 255 million vehicles worldwide, as well as critical systems in healthcare, industrial controls, robotics, and more.
&#8220;BlackBerry is at an inflection point and QNX is well positioned for the next 10 years as the demand for advanced hybrid cloud/edge computing capabilities becomes crucial for driving a software-defined future. The investments we have made over the last three years have set us on a well-defined path to capitalize on these trends,&#8221; said Mattias Eriksson, President, QNX.
To accompany the rebranding, BlackBerry unveiled a refreshed logo, website, and visual identity, which will be showcased at CES 2025 in Las Vegas.

Why Biotechnology Company Carmell Shares Are Rocketing On Thursday

An arctic air blast across the U.S. is driving up heating demand and creating volatile <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities">conditions in energy markets</a>.
What Happened: Natural gas futures bounced back Thursday morning, with February contracts climbing by over 2% to $3.71 per million British units.
According to the National Weather Center (NWC), "Periods of locally heavy coastal rains and higher elevation snow continue for much of the northwestern U.S."
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42764583/mortgage-rates-soar-to-697-applications-crash-jobless-claims-fall-thursdays-econ-data">Mortgage Rates Soar To 6.97%, Applications Crash, Jobless Claims Fall: Thursday&#8217;s Economic Data</a>
The next two days will see a deluge of rain and snow over the Northwest. The heaviest moisture will target the northern California coast and Oregon today. The NWC highlighted an isolated threat of flash flooding in these areas.
"Accumulating snow is possible over the highest elevations of the Cascades, Sierra and Northern Rockies," the NWC added, noting that snow showers will continue in the Northern and Central Rockies, while rain and snow showers expand across the Northwest on Friday.
The Great Lakes region is bracing for heavy snowfall, with isolated areas expecting accumulations of up to one foot. Snowfall of six to 12 inches is also forecast for parts of the Central Appalachians by Friday.
Why It Matters: Winter weather is driving much of the action, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports continue to fuel demand as Natural Gas Intel reported.
Natural gas-related stocks posted notable gains by mid-morning Thursday, reflecting optimism about rising demand and cold-driven volatility in the market.
U.S. natural gas prices — as tracked by the United States Natural Gas Fund LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNG#NYSE">UNG</a>) — have risen by 15% over the past month.
Pipeline giant ONEOK Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKE#NYSE">OKE</a>) soared 1.57%, trading at $102.28, while Kinder Morgan Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMI#NYSE">KMI</a>), a major natural gas transporter, advanced 2% to $27.94.
Shares of NGL Energy Partners LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NGL#NYSE">NGL</a>) rose 1.2% to $5.05. It was buoyed by expectations of increased activity in the natural gas infrastructure sector.
What&#8217;s Next: Traders are anxiously awaiting Friday&#8217;s U.S. Energy Information Administration storage report.
Withdrawal estimates for the week ended Dec. 27 range from 77 to 159 billion cubic feet, with an average expectation of 127 Bcf.
If realized, the 127 Bcf draw would erase much of the 166 Bcf surplus left after last week's 93 Bcf withdrawal. For comparison, last year's pull for the same period was just 35 Bcf, while the five-year average is 104 Bcf.

Natural Gas Prices Surge As Arctic Blast Freezes US: 3 Stocks On The Move

Rentals from peer-to-peer car-sharing company Turo were used in the New Year's Day attacks in both Las Vegas <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/01/42756901/10-killed-dozens-hurt-in-new-orleans-terrorist-attack-truck-drives-into-bourbon-street-new-years-crowd">and New Orleans.</a>
Here's a look at how the company is involved and what comes next.
What Happened: Attacks that used vehicles in New Orleans and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/01/42757028/tesla-cybertruck-ignites-outside-trump-international-hotel-in-las-vegas"> Las Vegas on Wednesday</a> left at least 16 people dead and dozens more injured.
Peer-to-peer car-sharing company Turo, which is often referred to as the Airbnb of vehicles, issued a <a href="https://turo.com/blog/news/an-update-on-todays-incidents-in-new-orleans-and-las-vegas/">statement </a>on the use of Turo rentals in the attacks. 
"It is with a heavy heart that we confirm that this morning's horrific attack in New Orleans and this afternoon's Tesla Cybertruck explosion in Las Vegas both involved vehicles rented on Turo. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families," Turo said in a statement.
Turo said it is working with law enforcement to help the investigations. The company said it does not believe either renter had a "criminal background" that would have flagged them as a security threat. Turo also said there is no evidence at this time that the two attacks are connected.
"We are devastated by these horrible incidents, and remain dedicated to helping the authorities however we can."
In the attack on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, a Ford F-150 Lightning truck was used. In Las Vegas, a Tesla Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump Hotel. Both vehicles are electric pickup trucks.
The owner of the F-150 Lightning recognized his vehicle from news footage of the attack and the license plate, as <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/01/us/turo-new-orleans-attack-vegas-explosion.html">reported </a>by the New York Times. The truck's owner said he rents out five vehicles on Turo for a secondary income source but plans to stop this practice after the attack.

About Turo: The car-sharing company started in 2009 with venture capital backing, seeking to use a model similar to Airbnb to connect consumers with vehicles that were not being used by their owners.
Unlike traditional car rental companies, users on Turo can often find vehicles located in more convenient spots close to home or work instead of having to go to a car rental retail location. The rates and fees can also be cheaper when using Turo, although this can depend on the prices set by vehicle owners themselves on the app.
A November filing, shared by the New York Times, said around 3.5 million people have used Turo to book a vehicle and around 150,000 people have listed their vehicles for rent on the platform.
In order to use the Turo platform, users have to create an account, have a valid driver's license and payment method. Users also have to be 18 years of age in the United States, which is younger than most car rental companies that set the minimum at 20 or 21. Turo also often checks credit history, auto insurance scores and criminal background history and is able to decline rentals and ban users.
Turo users do not need to have their own car insurance to rent a vehicle, as they can select from three protection plans.
In September, Turo <a href="https://turo.com/blog/news/uber-and-turo-partner-to-share-vehicles-on-uber-rent/">announced </a>a partnership with Uber Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>). The partnership gives Uber customers the ability to rent vehicles from Turo directly through the Uber app.
Turo is available in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, France and Australia, according to the company's website.
What's Next: Turo filed paperwork to go public in 2022. It did not go public in 2024 and is one of many companies that mount a 2025 IPO.
Turo is backed by dozens of investors through multiple funding rounds. IAC Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IAC#NASDAQ">IAC</a>) is among the largest investors in the company, with a $250 million investment made in <a href="https://turo.com/blog/news/iac-invests-250-million-in-turo/">2019 </a>at a valuation of $1 billion, helping to make the company the biggest shareholder.
The car-sharing company had revenue of $880 million in 2023, up 18% year-over-year. The company's 2023 profit was $14.7 million, down from $154.7 million in 2022, as <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-is-turo-car-rental-app-las-vegas-new-orleans-2025-1">reported </a>by Business Insider.
Insurance bought by the renters on Turo for the vehicles used in the Wednesday attacks and the insurance policies owned by the vehicle owners could become a key topic for Turo in connection with potential liability claims.
The issue of approval of vehicle renters and Turo&#8217;s background check process are also likely to be in the spotlight.

Turo Rentals Used In New Orleans, Las Vegas Attacks: 'We Are Devastated By These Horrible Incidents'

MicroAlgo Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MLGO#NASDAQ">MLGO</a>) shares are trading higher Thursday after the company announced the development of a hybrid <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/n42763951/microalgo-inc-develops-hybrid-classical-quantum-algorithms-to-optimize-multi-query-problems">classical-quantum algorithm.</a>
What To Know: The algorithm addresses Multi-Query Optimization (MQO) problems, which are classified as NP-hard and have applications in fields like database query optimization, machine learning and network routing. The innovation combines the stability of classical computing with the efficiency of quantum computing.
Key aspects of the algorithm include efficient qubit utilization with a reported 99% efficiency, the integration of classical error correction mechanisms to reduce computational error rates, scalability to handle problems of different sizes and compatibility with existing gate-based quantum computers.
MicroAlgo claims its algorithm can effectively handle smaller-scale MQO problems while improving qubit utilization and reducing computational error rates. Experimental evaluations reportedly confirm its performance under current quantum computing limitations.
MLGO Price Action: MicroAlgo shares were up 7.7% at $4.05 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga pro.</a>

Rolex SA, the Swiss luxury watchmaker, has raised prices on several of its models following an upswing in gold prices in 2024, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-02/rolex-kicks-off-2025-by-hiking-watch-prices-after-gold-soars?srnd=phx-industries&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bloomberg</a> reported.
According to the report, the price of the yellow gold Day-Date and yellow gold GMT-Master II has increased by almost 8% to 44,200 euros and 44,600 euros, respectively.
The price hikes follow gold&#8217;s remarkable 27% gain in 2024, reflecting its role as a safe-haven asset that remains prominent amid global economic uncertainties and geopolitical tensions.

While Rolex traditionally adjusts prices at the beginning of the year, this year&#8217;s changes surpass the 4% increases seen for some of its models in the beginning of 2024, Bloomberg noted.
According to a report, the gold prices are expected to continue their upward trajectory and reach $2,795 per troy ounce by the end of 2025, a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/25/01/42759408/gold-prices-to-climb-7-in-2025-amid-trumps-return-to-white-house-and-geopolitical-tensions-momentum-is-taking-back-over" rel="noreferrer noopener">7% increase from current levels</a>.
Central banks are likely to drive demand as they diversify reserves in the midst of geopolitical uncertainties.
Key drivers of the expected increase include central banks&#8217; diversification away from the U.S. dollar following sanctions on Russia, anticipated interest rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve, and rising concerns about U.S. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42594797/trump-wants-to-get-rid-of-the-debt-ceiling-30-year-treasury-bonds-fall-to-2024-lows-stocks-cut-gains" rel="noreferrer noopener">government debt</a> under President-elect&nbsp;Donald Trump.

Looking into the current session, NVR Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVR#NYSE">NVR</a>) shares are trading at $8143.15, after a 0.44% decrease. Over the past month, the stock fell by 9.07%, but over the past year, it actually increased by 17.37%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1735835409_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Evaluating NVR P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 12.64 in the Household Durables industry, NVR Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 16.74. Shareholders might be inclined to think that NVR Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1735835409_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

The stock closed at $289.62 on Wednesday, trading below its eight, 20 and 50-day simple moving averages, signaling a bearish short-term trend. However, it remains above its 200-day moving average of $195.03, indicating long-term bullish potential.
Analysts have set a consensus price target of $449.50 for MicroStrategy, with a high of $690 from BTIG on Dec. 11, 2023, and a low of $140 from Jefferies on Nov. 10, 2022. Recent ratings from Bernstein, TD Cowen and Barclays in late 2024 suggest an average price target of $546.67, implying a potential upside of 77.91%.
The company's stock performance is directly tied to Bitcoin's fluctuations due to its heavy investment in the cryptocurrency. While Bitcoin&#8217;s rise has previously led to gains for MicroStrategy, it also exposes the company to volatility.
Galaxy Research projects that Bitcoin could exceed $150,000 in early 2025, with a potential peak of $185,000 by the year's end, driven by increased institutional and corporate adoption.

Rigetti Computing Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGTI#NASDAQ">RGTI</a>) shares are trading higher by 13.3% to $17.28 Thursday morning, despite a lack of company-specific news for the session. Rigetti shares have gained some 445% over the past month amid marked strength in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42638753/quantum-computing-the-new-ai-a-look-at-the-rapidly-expanding-market-and-top-stocks-for-2025">quantum computing-related stocks</a>.
Additionally, the company&#8217;s December release of its 84-qubit Ankaa-3 quantum computer has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/mid-cap/24/12/42654955/why-are-rigetti-computing-shares-surging-on-monday">captured investor attention</a>.
What To Know: Ankaa-3 features superior two-qubit gate fidelities, achieving 99.0% for iSWAP gates and 99.5% for fSim gates, coupled with reduced error rates. The company says these improvements are critical for advancing quantum computing toward practical applications in cryptography, optimization and drug discovery. 
Rigetti Computing says the system also delivers fast gate speeds—72-nanosecond median times for iSWAP and 56 nanoseconds for fSim—ideal for complex data processing tasks like random circuit sampling.
The company says the machine is now accessible through Rigetti Quantum Cloud Services and will debut on platforms like Amazon Braket and Microsoft Azure in early 2025. 
Rigetti&#8217;s forward-looking plans include a modular 36-qubit system in mid-2025 and a 100+ qubit system by year-end, with further reductions in error rates.
CEO Dr. Subodh Kulkarni in December also highlighted Rigetti&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/g42646200/rigetti-computing-launches-84-qubit-ankaa-3-system-achieves-99-5-median-two-qubit-gate-fidelity-mi">$225 million cash position</a> and absence of debt, emphasizing confidence in delivering its roadmap.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy RGTI Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Rigetti Computing &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so.
In the the case of Rigetti Computing, which is trading at $15.58 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 6.42 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, RGTI has a 52-week high of $19.35 and a 52-week low of $0.66.
