Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk cast doubt Wednesday on the ambitious $500 billion Project Stargate, hours after its announcement, claiming lead investor SoftBank Group (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SFTBY#OTC">SFTBY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SFTBF#OTC">SFTBF</a>) has &#8220;well under $10B secured.&#8221;
What Happened: The project, unveiled Tuesday at a White House briefing in the presence of President Donald Trump, represents a joint venture between OpenAI, SoftBank, and Oracle Corp.

&#8220;They don't actually have the money,&#8221; Musk said.
&#8220;SoftBank has well under $10B secured. I have that on good authority.&#8221;
During the briefing, Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison highlighted the project&#8217;s healthcare applications, including an AI-driven system capable of delivering personalized cancer vaccines within 48 hours.

Based on the closing price of $9.94, the total value of the trade amounts to approximately $913,580.06. This move indicates Ark&#8217;s continued confidence in the gene-editing sector.
The PATH Trade
Ark Invest sold 21,879 shares of UiPath Inc. through its ARKK fund. Given the closing price of $13.33, the trade is valued at around $291,712.07. This sale suggests a shift in Ark&#8217;s stance on the automation software company.
The DE Trade
Ark Invest&#8217;s ARK Autonomous Technology &amp; Robotics ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKQ#BATS">ARKQ</a>) and ARK Space Exploration &amp; Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKX#BATS">ARKX</a>) purchased a total of 3,474 shares of Deere &amp; Co.

Cathie Wood's Ark Invest Buys Into Defense And Energy Stocks Amid Trump's Inaugural Policies

Shares of Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) experienced a 15% surge in premarket trading on Wednesday on the heels of the company announcing a 16%<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43119464/netflix-raises-prices-16-peter-schiff-warns-of-escalating-inflation-risks-ahead-of-trump-policies" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> price hike for its standard streaming plan.</a>
What Happened: Netflix&#8217;s shares saw an increase of $128.14 in the premarket, following a 1.35% rise at the close of the previous day, ending at $869.68. 
The price increase, which took the&nbsp;ad-free standard plan from $15.49&nbsp;to $17.99 per month, was announced in conjunction with Netflix&#8217;s impressive fourth-quarter earnings report.

The earnings report highlighted a 16% year-over-year revenue growth, reaching $10.25 billion, and a subscriber increase of 18.91 million. This surge in subscribers brought the total number of paid memberships to a staggering 301.63 million. The price increase also impacted the premium tier, now priced at $24.99, and the ad-supported option, which rose to $7.99.
Netflix&#8217;s robust performance, marked by a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43114866/netflix-q4-earnings-highlights-nfl-squid-game-power-best-subscriber-growth-in-company-history">record operating income surpassing</a>&nbsp;$10 billion for fiscal 2024,&nbsp;suggests a promising future for the company. Netflix anticipates its 2025 revenue to fall&nbsp;between $43.5 billion and $44.5&nbsp;billion, indicating a 12-14% growth. This projection underscores Netflix&#8217;s relatively&nbsp;small current share of the&nbsp;estimated $650 billion market opportunity&nbsp;across its key regions.
The company&#8217;s strong performance, driven by popular shows like &#8216;Squid Game&#8217; and its NFL content, has led to a significant <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43104552/youtube-vs-netflix-streamers-top-usage-leaderboard-in-december-sector-makes-more-gains-on-broadcast-and-cable">increase in its subscriber base.</a> The price hike, which is the largest in the company&#8217;s history, is a bold move that reflects Netflix&#8217;s confidence in its future growth and content offerings.

EV giant Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is now looking to hire data labelers in Utah for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39705124/tesla-giving-special-treatment-to-musk-and-high-profile-vip-drivers-in-fsd-development-report">data from its fleet of vehicles</a> as well as its Tesla bots.
What Happened: Tesla posted job openings on social media platform X and its career page.
The employees will work with in-house tools to label data coming from the company&#8217;s large fleet of vehicles as well as data from its humanoid bots which are under development. The data will include images and videos and the labeling will contribute to advancing the software aimed at making them operate autonomously. 
&#8220;No&nbsp;previous&nbsp;experience in AI or data labeling&nbsp;required. The perfect candidate for this role is adaptable, can apply logic to multiple different scenarios, is attentive to detail, has experience with computers and other software, and enjoys a fast-paced work environment,&#8221;&nbsp;the company says in the job description. The candidate must also have a working knowledge of the laws and rules of the road, it added. 
The job will be full-time and would require the employee to work from 9 am to 5:30 pm for five days a week in Utah.
Why It Matters: Tesla uses the visual road data that it gains from its car fleet to train their software how to respond autonomously to them. The company is hopeful that its autopilot and full self-driving (FSD) software, which currently serve as driver assistance systems, will enable autonomous driving with time and more training. 
Last year, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said that the company would start deploying self-driving Model 3 and Model Y vehicles in Texas and California for ride-hailing in 2025, provided it gets the necessary regulatory clearances.
However, the vehicles might not all operate as driverless robotaxis but with a driver as some states demand it until the company touches certain milestones in terms of miles and hours driven, the company then said. Musk, known for overestimating his company's products, expressed confidence about the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/10/41279865/elon-musk-may-unveil-teslas-robotaxi-but-consumers-respond-with-ehhh-new-study-reveals-skepticism-ne" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">company operating driverless paid rides sometime in 2025</a>.
However, it is important to note that FSD has yet to enable autonomous driving and still requires active driver supervision. 
As for Tesla bots, Musk said in July that the EV company would have "genuinely useful" humanoid robots in low production for use within its factories in 2025. The company will "hopefully" increase production for other customers in 2026, he said.
Musk expects to be&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37950895/elon-musk-says-cost-of-making-an-optimus-is-half-that-of-manufacturing-a-tesla-ev-despite-complexity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">able to sell Optimus, as the bots are called, at $10,000 or $20,000</a>, at a lower price point than Tesla&#8217;s cheapest Model 3 sedan, once it reaches high-volume production.

Tesla Looks To Hire Data Labelers To Boost Autonomous Vehicle And Bot Development

Billionaire Peter Thiel, a renowned venture capitalist and co-founder of PayPal Holdings and Palantir Technologies, got into Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) investments long before its meteoric bull runs captured the world's attention.
However, the long-held conviction appeared to fade, as apparent from one of his interviews last year.
What happened: During an interview in Jun. 2023, Thiel <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/07/39569413/billionaire-peter-thiel-voices-skepticism-on-bitcoins-future-growth-im-not-sure-its-going-">voiced pessimism about Bitcoin's price rise potential</a>.&nbsp;
"I'm not sure it's going to go up that dramatically from here. We got the ETF edition, and I don't know who else buys it," the venture capitalist said.
Thiel added that the apex cryptocurrency has grown increasingly connected with traditional finance as a result of the launch of spot exchange-traded funds, a deviation from its original cypherpunk, crypto-anarchist narrative.
See Also:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42735744/pharma-bro-martin-shkreli-predicts-doom-for-michael-saylors-microstrategy-as-stock-dips-below-300-in-after-hours-trading"> </a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43119637/michael-saylors-proposal-to-increase-microstratagys-share-count-approved-by-shareholders-more-bitcoin-purchases-on-the-cards">Michael Saylor&#8217;s Proposal To Increase MicroStratagy&#8217;s Share Count Approved By Shareholders — More Bitcoin Purchases On The Cards?</a>
When Thiel made these remarks, Bitcoin traded at $60,320.14 per unit. So, if you set aside his skepticism and invested $1,000 in the asset, you'd have received 0.0165 BTC.
Fast forward to January, and the apex cryptocurrency has made significant strides, exchanging hands at $104,988.38 as of this writing.&nbsp;
So if you'd have resisted selling, the original investment would have turned $1740.52, netting a return of 74% in just about seven months.
Why It Matters: Thiel's venture capital firm, Founders Fund, has had a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/02/37087400/peter-thiels-founders-fund-bets-big-on-bitcoin-and-ether-with-200m-investment-report#google_vignette" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">significant history with Bitcoin</a>, first buying the apex digital asset back in 2014.
The fund made a profit of $1.8 billion on its Bitcoin investments by selling just before the 2022 market collapse.
It returned to the market between late summer and early fall of 2023, purchasing $100 million worth of Bitcoin.
Interestingly, in the very same interview where Thiel expressed doubts about Bitcoin, he regretted not purchasing more of the digital currency.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $104,988.38, up 2.73% in the last 24 hours, 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>. Year-to-date, the leading cryptocurrency has gained 12.41%.

Earnings Scheduled For January 22, 2025

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed further improvement in overall market sentiment, but the index remained in the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone on Tuesday.
U.S. stocks settled higher on Tuesday, with the Dow Jones index gaining more than 500 points during the session as investors bet on more domestic-friendly policies following Donald Trump&#8217;s inauguration on Jan. 20 as the 47th U.S. President.
All three major indices also recorded their first weekly gain of 2025. The Dow jumped 3.7%, while the S&amp;P 500 added 2.9% last week. The Nasdaq, meanwhile, surged 2.5% during the week to notch its strongest weekly performance since December.
D.R. Horton Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHI#NYSE">DHI</a>) reported better-than-expected first-quarter results. 3M Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MMM#NYSE">MMM</a>) reported upbeat fourth-quarter 2024 results and initiated 2025 guidance.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with industrials, real estate, and health care stocks recording gains on Tuesday. However, energy stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session lower.
The Dow Jones closed higher by around 538 points to 44,025.81 on Tuesday. The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.88% to 6,049.24, while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.64% at 19,756.78 during Tuesday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from Abbott Laboratories (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABT#NYSE">ABT</a>), The Procter &amp; Gamble Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PG#NYSE">PG</a>), and Johnson &amp; Johnson (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNJ#NYSE">JNJ</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 40.8, the index remained in the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone on Tuesday, versus a prior reading of 37.6.
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.
