Donald Trump&#8216;s campaign promise to bring all Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) mining operations back to the United States faces considerable obstacles, despite his newfound <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42422705/donald-trump-would-welcome-150000-bitcoin-early-in-presidency-its-another-stock-market-for-him">support for the cryptocurrency industry</a>.
This pledge, made following discussions with leaders in the crypto mining field, symbolizes Trump&#8217;s shift from a skeptic to a champion of digital assets. 
What Happened: Experts in the field acknowledge that the decentralized structure of Bitcoin renders such a goal impractical, if not impossible, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-26/trump-s-made-in-usa-bitcoin-is-a-promise-impossible-to-keep?embedded-checkout=true">according</a> to Bloomberg.
While the concept might serve as a show of support, the reality is that Bitcoin mining is a highly competitive, worldwide endeavor. 
New, well-funded entities from various regions, including Russian, Middle Eastern and African players, are actively expanding their operations to capture a share of the considerable revenue generated by this activity.
These groups often have access to cost-effective energy sources and substantial capital, which are essential for successful large-scale mining. 
While most of the Bitcoin supply has been mined, these are still set to be mined over the next century, meaning competition will be fierce.
While the United States has seen growth in Bitcoin mining, the overall computing power produced by domestic miners is below half of the total global network. 
Industry analysts stress that it&#8217;s not feasible for US companies to solely control and power the entire Bitcoin system. 
Detailed data on the geographical distribution of mining power is scarce, but information from service providers like Luxor indicates significant overseas expansion.

Why It Matters: Bitcoin mining companies in the U.S. have generally welcomed Trump's backing.
They are hoping for less strict environmental rules and a reduction in overseas competition, and the industry contributed a significant amount to his last campaign. 
However, US sanctions against other nations, inflation in emerging economies and cheaper energy outside of the US have accelerated the growth of operations overseas.
There is a large increase in mining operations across Eastern Europe, Asia, Africa and the Middle East.
China is seeing a revival of mining activity after previously banning it, and Russia has recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42667932/did-vladimir-putin-just-ban-bitcoin-mining-in-russia-the-devil-is-in-the-details#:~:text=The%20Russian%20government%20has%20announced,pool%20mining%20operations%2C%20Tass%20reported.">adopted a more open stance</a>.
In Africa, the availability of affordable hydro power is creating hubs in regions like Ethiopia. 
For some South American countries, the US dollar value from mining provides a much-needed hedge against rampant local inflation.
Even US-based miners are expanding their operations abroad, due to increasing domestic electricity prices. 
MARA (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) Holdings, for instance, has partnered with a Middle Eastern firm to construct a large mining facility in Abu Dhabi. 
It's also important to note that US operations offer mining hosting services, where individuals from all over the world can pay to have their mining machines operated to earn Bitcoin.
Trump&#8217;s trade policy with China may create complications for US mining companies.
Increased tariffs could potentially drive up the cost of mining hardware, with a large majority of this hardware being produced by Bitmain, and is the largest expense outside of electricity. 
Despite these potential issues, many miners seem to believe that the benefits of Trump's overall approach to the industry outweigh any potential drawbacks.

Linkers Industries Shares Halted To The Downside; Stock Now -48.38%

GameStop Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) shares are trading higher Thursday following a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/12/42679610/roaring-kittys-christmas-post-has-gamestop-rallying-7-in-overnight-trading-memecoin-connected-to-trader-also-surge">social media post by Keith Gill</a>, known as &#8220;Roaring Kitty,&#8221; a prominent figure in the 2021 GameStop short squeeze.
What To Know: On Dec. 25, Gill shared an image of a wrapped gift on X, formerly Twitter. The post sparked speculation among retail traders, driving increased interest in GameStop shares during overnight trading. Shares rose 7.68% in after-hours trading on Robinhood, reaching $33.50 at one point.
Cryptocurrencies tied to Gill's online persona also reacted. The meme coin GmeStop (GME) rose 5%, with its market capitalization reaching $31.26 million, while Kitty Inu (KITTY) surged by 17.96%.
The movement in GameStop's stock could reflect continued volatility driven by retail trader enthusiasm rather than changes in the company's fundamentals. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Should You Buy GME?</h3>
An investor can make a few decisions when deciding whether a stock is a good buy. In addition to valuation metrics and price action which you can find on Benzinga's quote pages &#8211; like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GME">GameStop</a>&#8216;s page for example &#8211; there are factors like whether or not a company pays a dividend or buys a large portion of its stock each quarter.
These are known as capital allocation programs. GameStop (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) does pay a dividend, which yields 10.93% per year as of the closing price on Dec. 26, 2024. Feel free to search Benzinga's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/dividends">dividend calendar</a> for the next company that is due to pay a dividend and determine what kind of yield you can earn for holding a share of the company.
For example, if you're looking to earn an annualized return of 17.75%, you'll need to buy a share of PermRock Royalty Trust by the Dec. 31, 2024. Once done, you can expect to receive a nominal payout of $0.05 on Jan. 15, 2025.
Buyback programs are obviously different and highly variable. A company can approve a buyback program and purchase shares as it sees fit over the course of time in which the buyback was authorized. Looking through the latest news on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GME">GameStop</a> will often yield whether or not the company has approved a buyback program recently. Buyback programs usually serve as a support for share prices, serving as a backstop for demand.
GME Price Action: GameStop shares were up 5.43% at $32.82 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

GDS shares are trading higher following a Tuesday report suggesting the company is considering an IPO of its data center assets in China.

Bryan Lanza, a former adviser to President-elect <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">Donald Trump</a> and now a lobbyist for the cannabis industry, says the incoming administration may pave the way for significant marijuana policy reforms. However, he cautions that full <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cannabis-legalization">federal legalization of cannabis</a> is unlikely within the next four years.
In a recent <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNTVkxkO01E">interview</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@InsideCultivation"> </a>on the Inside Cultivation podcast, Lanza, who served on Trump's 2016 transition team and worked on his 2024 campaign, discussed what the future could hold for federal cannabis policy under a Trump White House.
"This is the first time that we have a Republican president that has given us a pathway to what he's comfortable with," Lanza said, referring to Trump's unexpected <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40776937/trump-joins-millions-of-americans-who-support-rescheduling-cannabis-weed-industry-responds-to-fo">cannabis-related remarks</a> during the campaign when he described the moment as a "good opportunity" for the industry to make progress. During his campaign, Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40774795/trump-says-hell-reschedule-cannabis-if-elected-backs-marijuana-banking-reform-and-floridas-amend">said he'd reschedule cannabis</a>, which would provide access to banking services for marijuana companies and open the doors to scientific research.

Lanza predicted that the ongoing process to reschedule cannabis under federal law would likely conclude in early 2025, aligning with Trump's stated support for regulating <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/medical-cannabis">medical marijuana</a>. 
"At the end of the day, when a decision is made, he expects his team to execute. And President Trump has made a decision where he is in this space, and it's incumbent on those who go work for him to know that's what he wants to execute, and they're going to execute," Lanza said.
&#8220;Are there going to be obstacles? There's always obstacles in everything, right?" he said, adding that there are "obviously coalitions that are going to be against this." Lanza mentioned big Pharma as one of them.
Trump's potential support for reforms could influence Congress to act on measures such as banking protections for cannabis businesses. Yet, Lanza remains skeptical about achieving full legalization. "Four years is not long enough to accomplish all the goals we need to do in the cannabis space," he said while suggesting that a unified front is the best way to achieve progress.
&#8220;If you splinter off and you have too many different voices going in too many different directions, I guarantee you that is a recipe for failure—and it is a missed opportunity, because Trump is giving you his roadmap," Lanza said.

Trump Is First 'Republican President' With A Pathway To Cannabis Reform, Says Former Adviser

PG&amp;E's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PCG#NYSE">PCG</a>) short percent of float has risen 21.56% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 39.06 million shares sold short, which is 2.03% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.43 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for PG&amp;E has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing PG&amp;E's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, PG&amp;E's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.13%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Looking Into Sony Gr's Recent Short Interest

Linkers Industries Shares Halted To The Downside; Stock Now Down -35.56%

Billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller recently made a big investment in Broadcom (AVGO), <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42659876/stanley-druckenmiller-pours-funds-into-1-trillion-company-already-trading-up-100?adt_ei=%7B%7Bemail%7D%7D&amp;he=%7B%7Bemail%7D%7D">increasing his stake to 239,980 shares</a>.&nbsp;
That stake, up 35% since September, is worth almost $56 million, one of the largest holdings in Druckenmiller&#8217;s private family fund. Now, Broadcom shares have surged almost 70% recently, so the stock is probably due for a breather.
But Druckenmiller&#8217;s big bet suggests there&#8217;s plenty of upside potential left.
I anticipate some consolidation into January and perhaps even February before the stock makes its next big move. That&#8217;s why the trade to make on Broadcom in the near term is a short iron condor.
Let me show you.
The short iron condor is a combination of a short call spread and a short put spread – a trade that sells premium on both the lower and upper bounds of price under the notion that prices remain rangebound in consolidation of strength.
As a result, the position loses the value we collected for selling it, and we are able to buy it back at a cheaper cost and keep the difference as profit for holding the spreads over time.&nbsp;
Here&#8217;s the trade structure I&#8217;m looking at:
<ul>
<li>Sell to open 1 AVGO 17 Jan 260 calls </li>
<li>Buy to open 1 AVGO 17 Jan 265 calls </li>
<li>Buy to open 1 AVGO 17 Jan 220 puts </li>
<li>Sell to open 1 AVGO 17 Jan 215 puts </li>
</ul>
At this writing, the credit collected is $1.67 and this number represents the total profit for the position.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The reason I chose these particular strikes is because of AVGO&#8217;s support and resistance levels. The relative resistance zone currently sits right around $250, and from here we should consolidate (move around within a range of price for a period of time). The relative support is near $225.
This strategy provides four outcomes to exit the trade:&nbsp;
<ol>
<li>Buy back the iron condor as its value erodes – I like to collect 50% of the original collected premium, in general. </li>
<li>Buy back the iron condor within ten days of expiration, especially if there is no movement in price. </li>
<li>If the prices spike above the short strikes (in this case, above $260 or below $220) for more than 3 days: exit the position, irrespective of where profits sit. </li>
<li>Buy back the iron condor if it moves above your threshold for loss – usually between 35%-50% above the collected premium.</li>
</ol>
