On Thursday, Japanese <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43380849/toyota-retains-top-selling-automaker-position-while-continuing-to-trail-tesla-byd-in-ev-sales" target="_blank" rel="noopener">carmaker</a> Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) said that its production of Toyota and Lexus brand vehicles worldwide rose by about 6% in January, marking the first year-on-year increase in 12 months.
What Happened: The company&#8217;s worldwide production rose 5.6% to 781,729 units in January, on the back of a 22% jump in production within Japan which offset a 1.4% decline in production outside home ground. 
Sales of Toyota and Lexus brand vehicles rose by a meager 0.1% to 785,632 units in January on the back of a 12.5% jump in Japan spurred by the introduction of new vehicles. Sales outside of Japan, however, fell by 2% to 659,098 units following a significant drop in sales in China owing to severe market conditions and intensifying price competition.
In North America, sales fell by 1.1% to 191,186 units. 
Toyota&#8217;s&nbsp;EV Sales:&nbsp;The company sold 382,458 electrified Toyota and Lexus vehicles globally last month, marking a jump of about 18% from Jan.2024.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/09/40745366/toyota-scales-back-2026-ev-production-plans-by-30-trims-target-to-1m-cars-as-global-demand-weakens-r" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Electrified vehicles</a>&nbsp;refer to hybrids, plug-in hybrids, battery electric vehicles, mild hybrids, and fuel-cell electric vehicles.
Pure electric vehicles or BEVs accounted for just 3% of Toyota&#8217;s overall electrified vehicle sales last month. 
Unit Performance: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43488964/toyota-stock-rises-3-pre-market-after-it-upgrades-full-year-forecast-despite-drop-in-q3-earnings">Toyota&#8217;s subsidiary</a> Daihatsu reported a 40.2% increase in sales in January to 52,343 units after sales within Japan more than doubled and offset a drop in sales outside the country.
Hino Motors, however, witnessed a 5.6% drop in global sales following a steep 14.3% drop in sales outside Japan.

Toyota Records First Worldwide Production Increase In A Year, But Sales Remain Stagnant In January

Litecoin and Avalanche both traded in the green Wednesday, defying the blood-soaked charts of other established coins.
What happened: LTC rose 2.85% in the last 24 hours, while its trading volume zoomed 34% to $1.94 billion.&nbsp;
The coin, created from the hard fork of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), surged to an intraday high of $128.14 earlier in the day before retracing to $122.
While there was no specific trigger for the rally,&nbsp; traders may be pricing in a high probability of a Litecoin spot exchange-traded fund approval this year. In the last few weeks, the SEC has <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/43328116/litecoin-spikes-over-11-after-sec-acknowledges-etf-filing-market-regulator-says-ltc-very-similar-to-bitcoin">acknowledged </a>spot ETF filings by Grayscale, Canary Capital, and CoinShares&nbsp;

Additionally, AVAX lifted 1.05% on the launch of its Visa credit card, which allows users to buy products directly with their cryptocurrency without having to convert it to fiat.
Avalanche, like Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), is a smart contract-based network, enabling the development of decentralized applications on top of it.

Why It Matters: The spike came after Nvidia <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43991607/nvidia-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-beat-demand-for-blackwell-is-amazing">reported record fourth-quarter and full-year fiscal revenue </a>after Wednesday&#8217;s market close. The quarterly revenue and earnings exceeded analysts' expectations.&nbsp;
That said, shares of the chip-making giant were down 1,49% in after-hours trading, indicating that investors' lofty expectations were not met.
The surge defied the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/02/43996033/bitcoin-ethereum-dogecoin-plunge-deeper-on-trumps-tariff-threats-analyst-hopeful-btc-will-touch-93500-in-relief-rally">broader downturn</a> in the market, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) slipping below $83,000 for the first time in 15 weeks.
Price Action: Shares of NVDA closed 3.67% higher at $131.28 during Wednesday's regular session, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Nvidia's Q4 Revenue, Earnings Beat Drives AI-Based Cryptos Higher Even As Major Coins Bleed

Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and owner of the Washington Post, announced Wednesday a significant shift in the newspaper&#8217;s opinion section that will prioritize viewpoints <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43760885/jeff-bezos-owned-washington-post-turns-down-ad-campaign-that-asked-whos-running-this-country-donald-trump-or-elon-musk">supporting free markets and personal liberties</a>.
What Happened: In a note shared on X, Bezos wrote that the Post&#8217;s opinion pages will now focus on &#8220;two pillars: personal liberties and free markets,&#8221; with opposing viewpoints &#8220;left to be published by others.&#8221; He justified the change by noting that while newspapers once served readers by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/01/43372393/bezos-vs-bezos-amazon-files-lawsuit-related-to-washington-post-in-major-conflict-of-interest-for-billionaire">providing diverse opinions</a>, &#8220;Today, the internet does that job.&#8221;
&#8220;I am of America and for America, and proud to be so,&#8221; Bezos stated. &#8220;Freedom is ethical — it minimizes coercion — and practical — it drives creativity, invention, and prosperity.&#8221;
The shift has already resulted in editorial changes. David Shipley, the Post&#8217;s current opinion editor, will step down rather than lead the new direction. Bezos acknowledged, &#8220;This is a significant shift, it won&#8217;t be easy, and it will require 100% commitment.&#8221;

Bath & Body Works Earnings Are Imminent; These Most Accurate Analysts Revise Forecasts Ahead Of Earnings Call

Fred Thiel, the CEO of&nbsp;MARA Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>), discussed on Wednesday the company&#8217;s active collaboration with President Donald Trump&#8217;s administration to bolster Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) mining in the U.S.
What happened: During the company's fourth-quarter earnings call, Thiel said MARA was committed to mining blocks domestically, highlighting how it labels every Bitcoin block it produces as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40335353/marathon-digital-stamps-all-bitcoins-produced-by-its-mining-pool-as-made-in-usa-after-trum">&#8220;made in USA</a>.&#8221;
"Because we believe it&#8217;s a strategic importance to the U. S., not just having a strategic reserve of Bitcoin but also having a predominant amount of block space such that the U. S. can project power and defend the Bitcoin blockchain, regardless of what other nations do," Thiel emphasized.
Thiel assured that MARA will continue to work closely with the executive and legislative branches of the government, at federal and state levels, to ensure the industry&#8217;s best interests are represented and implemented.

MARA Holdings Stock Spikes Over 7% In After-Hours Trading As CEO Assures Commitment To 'Made In USA' Bitcoin Mining

NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang said during the company&#8217;s fourth-quarter&nbsp;earnings call that &#8220;No technology has ever had the opportunity to address a larger part of the world&#8217;s GDP than AI.&#8221;
What Happened: This assertion, made as NVIDIA reported a staggering 78% year-over-year revenue increase to $39.3 billion for the fourth quarter, reflects how artificial intelligence rapidly transcends its initial applications to permeate virtually every economic sector.
Huang elaborated on this vision by emphasizing AI&#8217;s transition from specialized tool to mainstream software. &#8220;AI is modern software&#8230; AI has gone mainstream,&#8221; he noted, highlighting how the technology now underpins everyday services from e-commerce and delivery to education and healthcare.
What makes this claim particularly significant is the historical context. Previous technological revolutions—from steam power to electricity to computing—each transformed substantial portions of economic activity. Yet Huang suggests AI&#8217;s reach could be even more expansive, potentially touching nearly every industry simultaneously.

Why It Matters: The company&#8217;s forecast of $43 billion in revenue for the first quarter of 2026 underscores the accelerating adoption curve.
Unlike previous technologies that often required decades to fully permeate industries, AI is being deployed at unprecedented speed. From traditional enterprises to startups, organizations worldwide are racing to implement AI capabilities, creating what Huang describes as the beginnings of a new era just two years into this transition.
Price Action: Nvidia closed at $131.28 on Wednesday, up 3.67%. In after-hours trading, the stock fell 1.49% to $129.32. Year to date, NVDA is down 5.08%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Jensen Huang: 'No Technology Has Ever Touched More Of The World's GDP Than AI' But Nvidia Shares Slip In After-Hours Trading

A Canadian regulator announced Wednesday it will require Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) to pay a fee to cover the costs of enforcing the country&#8217;s Online News Act, adding to growing tensions between Canada and the United States <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/02/43926015/trump-confirms-tariffs-on-canada-mexico-will-take-effect-as-planned">over trade and technology policies</a>.
The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission said the fee will take effect on Apr. 1, with no upper limit established, Reuters reported. Google previously objected during public consultations, arguing it was &#8220;not a rational approach&#8221; to impose all costs on one entity.
Despite these objections, Google had already agreed to pay C$100 million annually to news publishers to maintain news <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/21/02/19594268/google-launches-paid-news-showcase-platform-in-uk-cnbc">content in search results</a>. Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), the only other company meeting the size threshold under the law, instead chose to block news on its Facebook and Instagram platforms in Canada.
The regulation represents part of a global trend requiring tech giants to compensate news organizations. The CRTC noted in its policy notice that the recovery costs can only be levied on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42238248/google-faces-historic-antitrust-lawsuit-in-canada-demanding-sale-of-key-ad-tech-tools">digital platforms covered by the law</a>.
Price Action: Alphabet&#8217;s Class A stock closed at $172.73 on Wednesday, down 1.53%, while Class C fell 1.51% to $174.70, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Google-Parent Alphabet Gets Slapped With New Fee By Canada To Fund Online News Act —  Tech Policy Tensions Escalate

U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has condemned the United Kingdom&#8217;s demand for Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) to create a &#8220;backdoor&#8221; to encrypted iCloud accounts, calling it a &#8220;clear and egregious violation of Americans&#8217; privacy and civil liberties.&#8221;
What Happened: In a letter to British lawmakers Wednesday, Gabbard warned the order would &#8220;open up a serious vulnerability for cyber exploitation by adversarial actors&#8221; and potentially violate the bilateral Cloud Act agreement between the two nations, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/feb/26/tulsi-gabbard-uk-apple">reported</a> The Guardian.
The dispute emerged after the UK Home Office issued a &#8220;technical capability notice&#8221; under the Investigatory Powers Act, requiring Apple to provide access to encrypted user data for law enforcement investigations. In response, Apple removed its Advanced Data Protection encryption feature entirely from the UK market.
Since February, British users attempting to activate ADP have received error messages. The feature, introduced in December 2022, had previously been available as an opt-in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43901425/apple-bows-out-of-uks-cloud-encryption-amid-governments-backdoor-demands">service for UK customers</a>.

Why It Matters: Apple&#8217;s decision continues its history of resisting government demands for user data access, reminiscent of its 2015 refusal to create an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41286584/apple-goes-from-waging-encryption-war-with-fbi-to-holding-hush-hush-global-police-summits-an-evolvin">FBI backdoor following the San Bernardino terror attack</a>.
Cybersecurity experts have criticized the UK government&#8217;s move. Professor Alan Woodward called it an &#8220;act of self-harm,&#8221; while privacy advocate Caro Robson noted it was unprecedented for a company to withdraw a product rather than comply with government directives.
Gabbard indicated she was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43901425/apple-bows-out-of-uks-cloud-encryption-amid-governments-backdoor-demands">unaware of the UK&#8217;s order until media reports surfaced</a>. She has requested insights from various U.S. security agencies, including the CIA, FBI, and NSA, and said national security lawyers are working on a legal opinion regarding the implications.
Price Action: Apple&#8217;s stock closed at $240.36 on Wednesday, down 2.70%. In after-hours trading, the stock declined another 0.30%. Year to date, AAPL is down 1.43%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Tulsi Gabbard Slams UK's Apple Encryption Demand As 'Egregious Violation' Of Americans' Privacy, Warns Of Cyber Threats

Jimmy Donaldson, popularly known as MrBeast, is reportedly looking to raise hundreds of millions of dollars in a funding round that would value his business empire at approximately $5 billion.
What Happened: MrBeast is in talks with financial firms and high-net-worth individuals to secure investment for his growing business empire, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-27/youtube-star-mrbeast-is-raising-money-at-a-5-billion-valuation">reported</a> Bloomberg, citing people familiar with the matter.
Donaldson&#8217;s business, which includes brands like Feastables and Lunchly, generated over $400 million in sales last year. He reportedly aims to expand his packaged goods and media ventures.

What Drives The YouTuber&#8217;s Philanthropy?</a>
Why It Matters: MrBeast's Amazon Prime reality series, "Beast Games," cost him personally. "I lost tens of millions of dollars," he admitted on the Diary of a CEO podcast, adding that he <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/02/43903423/mrbeast-calls-his-amazon-deal-for-beast-games-a-financial-mistake-this-is-the-price-you-have-to-pay">overspent to make Season 1</a> as strong as possible.
Amazon, which committed $100 million for the first season, has agreed to produce additional seasons but is still negotiating the budget.

MrBeast Lost Millions On Amazon's 'Beast Games'—Now He's Looking To Raise Hundreds Of Millions To Take His Brand To The Next Level

Despite initial delays with its Blackwell AI chip, Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang has reassured investors that Blackwell Ultra remains on schedule for the second half of 2025.
What Happened: During Nvidia's <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43991607/nvidia-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-beat-demand-for-blackwell-is-amazing">fourth-quarter</a> earnings call, JPMorgan analyst Harlan Sur asked Huang about the demand and rollout strategy for Blackwell Ultra, given that the company is still ramping up its Blackwell chips.
In response, Huang acknowledged that the first Blackwell chips faced a "hiccup" that "probably cost us a couple of months," but said that Nvidia has fully recovered. "The team did an amazing job recovering," he said.

The CEO confirmed that Blackwell Ultra will arrive in the second half of 2025 and will feature "new networking, new memories, and, of course, new processors."
He assured investors that Nvidia's supply chain and partners are fully prepared for the transition and noted that unlike the transition from Hopper to Blackwell, which required significant hardware changes, Blackwell Ultra will "slot right in" without major architectural overhauls.
Beyond Blackwell Ultra, Huang revealed that Nvidia is already working closely with partners on the "click after that," called Verarubin, which he plans to unveil at the upcoming GTC conference.

Why It Matters: Last year, the Blackwell chips faced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42028342/blackwell-backfires-nvidias-ai-chips-struggle-with-server-overheating-impacting-meta-microsoft-and-musks-xai-data-centers">significant challenges</a>, including overheating issues when integrated into server racks, impacting major clients like Meta Platforms Inc., Microsoft Corporation, and Elon Musk&#8217;s xAI.
These overheating problems were reported to have affected the performance of data centers, causing concern among Nvidia&#8217;s partners and customers.
Nvidia reported $39.3 billion in fourth-quarter revenue, marking a 12% increase from the previous quarter and 78% growth year-over-year. This surpassed Wall Street's estimate of $38.05 billion.
At the earnings call, Huang said, "Demand for Blackwell is amazing as reasoning AI adds another scaling law."
Price Action: At the time of writing, Nvidia&#8217;s stock declined 1.49% in after-hours trading to $129.32, after gaining 3.67% earlier on Wednesday and closing at $131.28, per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Jensen Huang Admits First Nvidia Blackwell Chips Faced Hiccups, Praises Team For Amazing Recovery — Blackwell Ultra On Track For Second Half Of 2025

Gemini co-founder Cameron Winklevoss disclosed Wednesday that the SEC has concluded its investigation into the cryptocurrency exchange with no enforcement action to be taken.
What happened: In an X post, Winklevoss stated that the regulator notified the company&#8217;s litigation counsel of the closure. He called this &#8220;another milestone to the end of the war on crypto.&#8221;
"This comes 699 days after the start of their investigation and 277 days after they sent us a Wells Notice," Winklevoss said. "The SEC cost us tens of millions of dollars in legal bills alone and hundreds of millions in lost productivity, creativity, and innovation."

The regulatory action was spearheaded by former SEC Chair Gary Gensler.
The SEC didn't immediately respond to Benzinga's request for comment.&nbsp;

Why It Matters: Cameron and his twin brother Tyler have been vocal critics of Gensler. Last month, they announced a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43329158/crypto-firm-gemini-announce-hiring-freeze-against-mit-due-to-gary-genslers-return">hiring boycott</a> against the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where Gensler joined as a professor.
The Winklevoss twins made Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) donations to campaigns, including those of President Donald Trump and John Deaton, a pro-cryptocurrency candidate who unsuccessfully ran against Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.).

What Happened: Bitcoin sank below $83,000 for the first time in 15 weeks before pairing losses late in the evening. The leading cryptocurrency was down over 21% since its January all-time high.
In the last 24 hours, BlackRock transferred over $160 million in BTC to Coinbase, which were outflows from iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBIT#NASDAQ">IBIT</a>), according to Arkham Intelligence.
Similarly, Ethereum plunged to an intraday low of $2,255.05, its lowest since Donald Trump's presidential victory.
The continuing price decline was precipitated by reports of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43987636/bitcoin-tumbles-below-85000-amid-president-trumps-eu-tariff-threats">Trump's threats to impose 25%</a> tariffs on the European Union.
Over $760 million was liquidated from the cryptocurrency market in the last 24 hours, with $606 million in long positions erased.
That said, a recovery to $90,500 would liquidate over $1 billion worth of short positions
Bitcoin's Open Interest fell by 5.45% in the last 24 hours and has collapsed by more than 18% since the beginning of February.
The "Extreme Fear" sentiment strengthened, according to the Crypto Fear and Greed Index, fueling concerns of further downsides.

Analyst Notes: Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and investor Rekt Capital noted the formation of Bitcoin's new "CME Gap" between ~$92,700 and ~$94,000
"This offers some confluence to the idea of price revisiting $93,500 at some point in the future as part of a post-breakdown relief rally," the analyst predicted.
CME gaps are the differences in price between the closing price on a given trading day and the opening price on the following trading day on a Bitcoin futures chart.&nbsp;

In a note to Benzinga, Chris Kline, COO and Co-Founder of BitcoinIRA, called Bitcoin's ongoing consolidation phase a "healthy reset."
"Bitcoin has established a more defined trading range following its impressive run to near all-time highs, demonstrating resilience despite short-term fluctuations," Kline added.
The analyst suggested that such periods of measured trading activity typically precede upward momentum.

'Squid Game' Season 2 Took Just Days To Dominate Netflix—Here's What Else Viewers Binge-Watched In The Last Six Months

Restaurant spending is the largest potential source of savings for most couples, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/06/39402040/ramit-sethi-says-becoming-a-multimillionaire-is-simple-invest-10-of-your-salary-every-year-with-">financial expert and self-made millionaire Ramit Sethi</a>.
&#8220;For 90% of the people I talk to, food — whether eating out or ordering in — is the biggest category where there&#8217;s money to free up and redirect into something that matters more,&#8221; <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/19/self-made-millionaire-90-percent-of-people-need-to-stop-wasting-so-much-money-in-this-category.html">Sethi told CNBC</a>.
The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38627546/i-will-teach-you-to-be-rich-author-ramit-sethi-became-a-self-made-millionaire-he-now-shares-his-simp">author and Netflix host</a> identified a host of factors that make dining expenses particularly difficult to control. &#8220;Food is emotional — buying dinner is about a lot more than just hunger. It&#8217;s about convenience, impulsivity, reward and more,&#8221; he explained.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>

</ul>
Tracking those expenses proves especially challenging for couples. The spending often happens across multiple payment methods, locations, and circumstances—from workplace lunches to family pizza nights, social outings, and children&#8217;s meal money sent through payment apps.
&#8220;It&#8217;s a mishmash, and it can easily get away from you,&#8221; Sethi said.
In his new book &#8220;Money for Couples,&#8221; Sethi outlined a 10-step program for partners to develop shared financial vision despite differing money perspectives. He recommends couples consolidate restaurant spending on a single shared credit card to improve tracking and visibility.
Several individuals who worked with Sethi shared their strategies for reducing food spending. Mary found a meat delivery service that enabled more home cooking during weeknights, allowing guilt-free weekend dining.&nbsp;
Trending: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy. Lauren, someone who worked with Sethi, created themed potluck dinner parties to capture restaurant ambiance at lower cost. Rosana implemented a twice-weekly cooking schedule with planned leftovers, directing her savings toward credit card debt reduction.
&#8220;We were eating out at least five to six days a week; the only meal we were making at home was breakfast!&#8221; Rosana, another colleague, told Sethi. &#8220;Now, we cook every Wednesday and Sunday and we eat leftovers at least one night, which saves us a ton of money.&#8221;
The financial expert said that changing food habits requires partners to be &#8220;kind and supportive of each other,&#8221; noting that &#8220;changing habits around food can be tricky.&#8221;

Sethi recommends couples start with honest conversations about spending patterns, &#8220;what are you spending too much on? Where can you cut back?&#8221;
His approach focuses on identifying &#8220;invisible spending&#8221; that occurs without conscious decision-making. By bringing food expenses into awareness, couples can redirect funds toward priorities that bring greater satisfaction than convenience meals.
&#8220;The more you have open, honest conversations about these things, the easier it will be to spend meaningfully,&#8221; Sethi said.

Self-Made Millionaire Warns 90% Of People Are Throwing Away Money On This Expense

Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang said Wednesday that next-generation artificial intelligence models need &#8220;100 times more compute&#8221; than earlier versions, citing new reasoning approaches that process information step by step.
What Happened: &#8220;The amount of computation necessary to do that reasoning process is 100 times more than what we used to do,&#8221; Huang <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/26/nvidia-ceo-huang-says-next-generation-ai-will-need-more-compute.html">told</a> CNBC following the company&#8217;s record-breaking <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43991607/nvidia-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-beat-demand-for-blackwell-is-amazing">fourth-quarter earnings report</a>.
The chipmaker reported $39.3 billion in revenue for the quarter, up 78% year-over-year and exceeding analyst expectations of $38.05 billion. Data center revenue, which includes Nvidia&#8217;s market-leading GPUs for AI workloads, surged 93% to $35.6 billion, now representing over 90% of total revenue.
Huang specifically mentioned DeepSeek&#8217;s R1, OpenAI&#8217;s GPT-4 and xAI&#8217;s Grok 3 as models utilizing reasoning processes that require substantially more computing power. This comes despite a 17% stock drop in January triggered by concerns that DeepSeek had found ways to achieve better AI performance with lower infrastructure costs.
&#8220;DeepSeek was fantastic,&#8221; Huang said. &#8220;It was fantastic because it open-sourced a reasoning model that&#8217;s absolutely world class.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The company has faced challenges in China due to export restrictions, with Huang noting that Nvidia&#8217;s percentage of revenue from China has fallen by about half. He added that Nvidia&#8217;s GB200 chip, sold in the United States, can generate AI content 60 times faster than versions sold to China under export controls.
Looking ahead, Nvidia projects first-quarter revenue of $43 billion, exceeding analyst expectations of $41.75 billion. Huang emphasized strong demand for the company&#8217;s new Blackwell AI supercomputers, which achieved &#8220;billions of dollars in sales in its first quarter.&#8221;
&#8220;Demand for Blackwell is amazing as reasoning AI adds another scaling law – increasing compute for training makes models smarter and increasing compute for long thinking makes the answer smarter,&#8221; Huang said.
