Analyst Notes: Popular cryptocurrency analyst and trader Michaël van de Poppe anticipated a "strong week" for cryptocurrencies ahead, aligning with the release of CPI and PPI data.
"This week is comparable to any previous crisis period," Van De Poppe remarked. "During crisis periods, you&#8217;d want to be bullish, and maximum pain is upwards, not down."

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Flat As Investors Prepare For Crucial Inflation Data: Top Analyst Says This Week Comparable To Any 'Crisis' Period But You Should Be Bullish

On Sunday, T-Mobile U.S. Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>) offered free access to its satellite-to-cell beta service, powered by SpaceX&#8217;s Starlink, for all users.
What Happened: According to T-Mobile, 500,000 square miles of the U.S., previously unreachable by terrestrial towers, can now maintain connectivity.
When the service officially launches in July, it will be included at no extra cost for customers on T-Mobile&#8217;s premium Go5G Next plan. Other T-Mobile users can add it for $15 per month.

For a limited time, beta testers on other T-Mobile plans can lock in an Early Adopter Discount. Until March 1, they can save $5 per month, bringing the cost down to $10 per month.
Customers on Verizon Communications (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>), AT&amp;T (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>), or other networks can also access T-Mobile Starlink without switching. Once the beta ends in July, the service will be available for $20 per month.
The service initially offers text via satellite, with voice and data features to follow.

Device Compatability: Most smartphones, released in the last four years, will support T-Mobile Starlink beta, but satellite connectivity requires optimization for the best experience. This includes the iPhone 14 and later, the Google Pixel 9 series, Samsung Galaxy A14–A54, and Galaxy S21.
Why It Matters: Last month, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) integrated Starlink satellite capabilities into its iOS 18.3 update, allowing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43294364/apple-surprises-iphone-users-by-teaming-up-with-spacex-and-t-mobile-to-bring-starlink-satellite-texting-heres-what-you-need-to-know-about-the-new-feature">iPhone users to access</a> satellite texting.
Previously, T-Mobile highlighted Starlink&#8217;s role in providing connectivity <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/01/43328377/t-mobile-underscores-spacexs-starlinks-role-in-california-wildfire-relief-closes-record-breaking-growth-year">during the California wildfires</a>, showcasing the resilience of its network.
T-Mobile exceeded expectations in its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43300596/t-mobile-q4-earnings-beats-estimates-adds-1-9-million-postpaid-customers-targets-6-million-new-customers-in-2025">fourth-quarter results</a>, posting earnings of $2.57 per share, above the analyst estimate of $2.26.

Elon Musk's SpaceX And T-Mobile Go Live With Starlink-Powered  Satellite-To-Cell Service: Here's How Much It Will Cost

On Sunday, in an interview aired during the Super Bowl preshow, President Donald Trump expressed his serious intention to make Canada the 51st state of the United States.
What Happened: Trump confirmed his intentions when asked by Fox News Channel&#8217;s Bret Baier if his talk of annexing Canada was &#8220;a real thing&#8221;. Trump responded, &#8220;Yeah it is,&#8221; adding that he believes Canada would be better off as the 51st state, citing a supposed $200 billion annual loss with Canada, according to a <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5135385-trump-says-canada-joining-us-would-be-greatest-thing-they-could-ever-do/">report</a> from The Hill.
&#8220;I love the people of Canada. We have a great relationship, but if they became our 51st state, it would be the greatest thing they could ever do,&#8221; said Trump.
&#8220;Think of how beautiful that country would be without that artificial line running right through it. Somebody drew it many years ago with a ruler, just a line.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Earlier this month, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43576926/trudeau-says-trump-might-be-serious-about-annexing-canada-report">expressed concerns</a> that Trump&#8217;s annexation talk might be serious and tied to his interest in Canada&#8217;s natural resources. This followed a temporary <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43450261/trump-trudeau-strike-border-security-deal-tariffs-on-canada-paused-for-at-least-30-days">halt on tariffs</a> after a border security deal between the U.S. and Canada.

Trump Says Canada Much Better Off Being The 51st State: The Border With US Is 'Just A Line'

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43248147/the-money-is-going-to-run-out-grant-cardone-predicts-retirement-age-will-be-raised-to-at-least-73-because-social-security-is-busted">Grant Cardone</a> has never been known for subtlety, and in January 2023, he stirred up conversation yet again by calling Warren Buffett a "coward investor" in a <a href="https://youtu.be/3An5cMriRAA?si=33HZPjBarW9r-C5t">YouTube short</a>.&nbsp;
While that might sound like a diss, Cardone wasn't taking a cheap shot—he was making a point. The real estate mogul was highlighting Buffett's ultra-conservative, cash-flow-driven investment strategy, which prioritizes steady, predictable income over speculative gains.
"Warren Buffett does not buy stocks," Cardone stated. "Every company Warren Buffett has ever invested in from Coca Cola to Apple Computer, he was taking a major position in a company, not a piece of paper. He didn't didn't invest in Apple Computer until cash flow was stable."

</ul>
That distinction matters. Buffett isn't in the game for risky short-term plays or volatile markets—he wants businesses that pay him forever. His investments in Coca-Cola (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>), Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), and other blue-chip giants have one thing in common: reliable cash flow. "He wants a check every month," Cardone said, emphasizing that Buffett's approach is all about consistency, not quick flips.
Cardone then quoted Buffett's famous saying—"If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die" — which perfectly sums up <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40285452/warren-buffett-says-the-insurance-business-is-very-tempting-somebody-hands-you-money-and-you-han">his investment philosophy</a>. He's not looking for the hottest tech startup or the next big meme stock. Instead, he takes major stakes in companies that generate ongoing income through dividends, strong pricing power, and long-term stability.

Cardone, on the other hand, built his empire through real estate, a sector he argues is even better for cash flow than stocks. While Buffett focuses on companies that pay him dividends, Cardone prefers properties that send him rental income every month. His belief is simple: why rely on stock price appreciation when you can own an asset that pays you whether the market is up or down?
The key difference between the two moguls is control. Buffett <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/02/43451833/warren-buffetts-1m-bet-why-simple-index-funds-crushed-hedge-funds-by-7-1-to-2-2-over-a-decade">invests in companies</a> but doesn't directly run them. His cash flow comes from owning substantial stakes in businesses that perform well on their own. Cardone, however, takes a more hands-on approach, building his own empire of income-generating properties where he controls the cash flow directly.

While Cardone might call Buffett a "coward investor" for his ultra-cautious approach, there's no denying that Buffett's method has built one of the greatest fortunes of all time. His long-term, cash flow-first mindset has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/12/42668097/warren-buffett-heads-into-2025-with-325-billion-cash-pile-his-largest-in-over-three-decades-expert-says-it-will-provide-an-opportunity-for-the-successors-to-make-their-own-mark">allowed him to amass billions</a> while barely selling any of his holdings. And in the end, both men share the same goal: making money work for them, even when they're not working.
Is Buffett really a coward investor? Or is he just the ultimate example of patience and discipline in the world of finance? Either way, one thing is clear—cash flow is king, and whether through real estate or stocks, those who master it will always have the upper hand.

'He's a Coward Investor' — Grant Cardone Said Warren Buffett Plays It Safe And Wants A Check Every Month

U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) took to X to highlight what he sees as a glaring issue of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42676387/bernie-sanders-the-american-people-are-disgusted-with-musk-calls-on-democrats-to-end-super-pacs-in-primaries">money in politics</a>.

Since Election Day, he has become $154 billion richer. Not a bad return on his investment." The viral tweet, which amassed millions of views, underscores concerns about billionaire influence in elections and whether Musk's massive political spending has directly benefited his financial empire.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Musk's $277 Million Political Spending</h2>
<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-260-million-spending-trump-republican-party-2024-12">According to Business Insider</a>, Musk funneled most of his money—$239 million—into America PAC, a super PAC that spent heavily on pro-Trump canvassing, digital ads, and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41417390/elon-musks-pro-trump-super-pac-to-give-1m-every-day-to-people-in-swing-states-for-signing-his-petiti">controversial voter giveaways</a>. Another $20.5 million went to RBG PAC, which ran ads linking Trump's abortion stance to the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a move that outraged her family.
He also gave millions to Republican-aligned PACs, including $10 million to the Senate Leadership Fund, $2.3 million to Sentinel Action Fund, and $1 million to Early Vote Action PAC, among others. There's speculation that he contributed even more through dark money groups, which aren't required to disclose donors.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Musk's Wealth Skyrocketed After Trump's Win</h2>
By mid-December, Musk's fortune had jumped from $262 billion before the election to a peak of $486 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, fueled by a massive surge in Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock. The Washington Post reported that Tesla shares rose 70% post-election, with investors betting that Trump's pro-business policies, deregulation efforts, and his close ties to Musk would benefit Tesla, SpaceX, and Musk's other ventures.
Trump even <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/11/42069236/trump-tasked-elon-musk-to-oversee-government-efficiency-heres-how-musk-has-streamlined-costs-at-his-own-companies">appointed Musk</a> to co-chair the newly created Department of Government Efficiency, a move seen as a potential boost for Musk's businesses and potential conflicts of interest.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Sudden $43 Billion Drop After Trump's Inauguration</h2>
However, since Trump took office, Musk's net worth has dropped by $43 billion, mainly due to the administration's new tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico. Per Newsweek, Tesla's 5.2% stock drop on Feb. 3, wiped out nearly $15 billion of Musk's wealth in a single day. By the end of the week, his net worth fell further to around $412 billion.

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>
Investors are worried that Trump's trade policies could raise Tesla's production costs, especially for battery materials like lithium and aluminum. China's potential retaliatory tariffs could also threaten Tesla's Shanghai Gigafactory and its growing EV market in the region.

'Not A Bad Return On His Investment'—Bernie Sanders Says Elon Musk Spent $277 Million To Elect Trump And Made $154 Billion Since Election Day

Warren Buffett's granddaughter Nicole Buffett says she was cut off financially and emotionally after speaking publicly about wealth inequality. Nicole, who was legally adopted by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41198368/warren-buffetts-son-who-famously-cashed-in-his-90-000-inheritance-at-19-spends-millions-in-buffe">Buffett's son Peter</a>, described how her relationship with her grandfather soured after she appeared in "The One Percent," a 2006 documentary by Johnson &amp; Johnson (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNJ#NYSE">JNJ</a>) heir Jamie Johnson.
"My grandfather is a very private man, and I decided to share what it's like to be his granddaughter, and it created a huge estrangement from him to the extent that he disowned my twin sister and myself," she told <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/lifestyle/documentary-on-wealth-gap-divides-buffett-family-idUSN20404370/">Reuters in 2008</a>.
Despite not being biologically related, Nicole spent time with Warren growing up. She recalled receiving a $100 bill from him for Christmas when she was 5 and being given a private tour of the See's Candies factory. The family also vacationed at Warren's Laguna Beach home twice a year.&nbsp;

</ul>
But while she experienced glimpses of the Buffett lifestyle, she was also expected to be financially independent. Warren covered her six-figure college tuition but maintained a strict policy of funding only education-related expenses. When she once asked for help buying a futon, his secretary reportedly reminded her of the rule.
In a 2008 <a href="https://www.marieclaire.com/culture/news/a2342/warren-buffett-granddaughter-nicole-buffett/">Marie Claire article</a>, Nicole described how being cut off left a permanent divide. "For him to discard me like that was devastating. It permanently divided our family," she said. She also explained that she was unaware of the full scope of Warren's wealth until she was 17 when he appeared on the cover of Forbes as America's richest man.
Trending: 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>.
Her decision to participate in "The One Percent" was a breaking point. Nicole spoke about wealth inequality and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43496879/elon-musk-said-warren-buffett-managed-to-create-a-great-image-as-a-kindly-grandfather-but-thinks-thats-maybe-overstating-the-case">her grandfather's philosophy</a> on money, saying in the documentary, "Money is the spoke in my grandfather's wheel of life." Soon after, she received a letter from Warren stating: "I have not emotionally or legally adopted you as a grandchild, nor have the rest of my family adopted you as a niece or a cousin." To make it even clearer, he signed the letter "Warren" instead of "Grandpa."
Nicole later appeared on "Oprah," further discussing the family's financial views. Warren, who has publicly committed to donating the majority of his fortune to charity rather than passing it down to his children and grandchildren, was reportedly unhappy with the attention.

In the Marie Claire interview, Nicole revealed was living on $40,000 a year without cable TV or health insurance, far from what most people imagine when they hear the Buffett name. "The first thing most people think of when they hear my last name is money," she said.
Despite being cut off, she has since found success in the NFT art world, creating a series called Spirit Coins, which combines her traditional art background with digital technology. While her <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43166526/billionaire-warren-buffetts-first-wife-said-he-cared-about-the-win-not-the-money-its-all-mental-with-him-and-money-is-his-scorecard">financial ties to the Buffett </a>empire have been severed, Nicole has carved out her own path, even if it looks nothing like the life she once knew.

Warren Buffett's Granddaughter Claimed He Cut Her Off And She Couldn't Afford Health Insurance: 'He Disowned My Twin Sister And Myself'

The return of President Donald Trump to the White House could trigger the release of Jeffrey Epstein&#8216;s infamous &#8220;black book,&#8221; as per <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/22/06/27557540/musk-says-he-wants-to-see-epstein-maxwell-client-list-twitterati-cant-stop-trolling-him-3">a Senate confirmation hearing</a>.
What Happened: Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) brought up the matter during a Senate confirmation hearing for Trump&#8217;s FBI Director-designate Kash Patel. Blackburn is a vocal advocate for the disclosure of documents related to Epstein&#8217;s international human trafficking and sex trafficking ring.
Blackburn urged Patel to collaborate with her on this matter. Patel responded positively, expressing his dedication to combating child sex trafficking in the United States, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/jeffrey-epstein-files-trump-election-could-expose-names-black-book-list">reports</a> Fox News.
Epstein, a millionaire financier, passed away&nbsp;in federal custody in 2019&nbsp;while facing&nbsp;trial on sex trafficking charges.&nbsp;His alleged black book, thought to hold names of possible accomplices&nbsp;in his international sex trafficking&nbsp;ring, has yet to be revealed.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43077007/jeffrey-epstein-allegedly-offered-plea-deal-in-exchange-for-trump-info-if-i-can-give-them-something-on-trump-to-get-him-impeached">Jeffrey Epstein Allegedly Offered Plea Deal In Exchange For Trump Info: &#8216;If I Can Give Them Something On Trump To Get Him Impeached&#8217;</a>
In 2020, a federal court mandated the release of thousands of pages of confidential records, unveiling&nbsp;nearly 200 names, many of&nbsp;whom are high-profile individuals. Despite this, the records remain inaccessible to the public.
Blackburn reiterated last week that&nbsp;&#8220;Americans deserve to know exactly&nbsp;who was affiliated with this&nbsp;network.&#8221; She expressed her eagerness to work with Patel to make Epstein&#8217;s flight logs and black book public.
Why It Matters: The release of Epstein&#8217;s &#8216;black book&#8217; could have significant implications, potentially exposing high-profile individuals involved&nbsp;in his international sex trafficking&nbsp;ring. This could lead to further investigations and legal actions against those implicated. 
The commitment of Patel to work with Blackburn on this issue signals a potential shift in the handling of Epstein&#8217;s case, which remains a topic of national interest and controversy. 
The public&#8217;s access to these records could shed light on the extent of Epstein&#8217;s network and the individuals involved, contributing to transparency and accountability.

Trump's Comeback Could Bring Jeffrey Epstein's Secret 'Black Book' To Light

Crypto analyst who correctly foresaw the Bitcoin crash in May 2021, now foresees a significant downward correction for the cryptocurrenc<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/42933328/analyst-warns-of-bitcoins-uncertain-future-amid-key-support-breakdown-it-could-get-ugly">y in the upcoming weeks.</a>
What Happened: The pseudonymous analyst, Dave the Wave, predicts that Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) might replicate last year&#8217;s pattern. In 2021, Bitcoin reached new highs around $74,000 before plummeting below $50,000. He anticipates the most severe BTC consolidation to take place by the end of March.
According to Dave the Wave&#8217;s chart, if BTC mimics last year&#8217;s price action, it could correct to the 0.382 Fibonacci level, which is approximately $81,000. The Fibonacci extension tool is often used by traders to pinpoint potential entry and exit points based on the Fibonacci ratio.

Despite predicting a Bitcoin pullback, the analyst maintains that BTC will eventually rally and could potentially hit as high as $260,000 by the end of the year.

This prediction is grounded in his logarithmic growth curve (LGC) model and the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) indicator.
The LGC is designed to forecast Bitcoin&#8217;s&nbsp;market cycle highs and lows, disregarding&nbsp;short-term volatility, while the MACD&nbsp;assists traders in identifying trend direction and potential reversal areas. At the&nbsp;time of writing, Bitcoin is&nbsp;trading for $96,909.
Why It Matters: The prediction of a significant downward correction for Bitcoin comes at a time when the cryptocurrency market is already facing volatility. 
The anticipated correction could potentially impact the market, affecting investors and traders alike. The prediction also highlights the importance of tools like the Fibonacci extension and the LGC model in forecasting market trends, which could be crucial for traders in making informed decisions. 
The potential rally predicted by Dave the Wave could also provide a glimmer of hope for investors amidst the anticipated downturn.

Analyst Who Nailed 2021 Crypto Collapse Now Says Worst Of Bitcoin Could Come In Next Few Weeks

A Miami-based entrepreneur was pushed to the brink of bankruptcy due to a nine-month-long freeze <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42716153/massive-data-breach-exposes-millions-of-credit-and-debit-cards-is-your-account-safe">on his $65,000 by Chase Bank.</a>
What Happened: Sean May, a customer of Chase Bank, was unable to access his funds due to a suspected fraud. The funds were from a $65,000 check issued by the US government.
According to a <a href="https://www.wfla.com/8-on-your-side/better-call-behnken/bank-holds-pasco-county-business-irs-refund-check-for-nine-months-amid-fraud-concerns/#:~:text=TAMPA%2C%20Fla.,tax%20refund%20check%20last%20May">report</a>, despite presenting a letter from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) confirming the legitimacy of the check, JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), operating as Chase Bank, did not lift the freeze on his account.
&#8220;They have cashed the check. They do have the money. It's just not accessible to me, and my account has been closed,&#8221; said May. He also highlighted that this situation played a significant role in his software development company&#8217;s bankruptcy.

After NBC-affiliate WFLA News initiated inquiries, Chase Bank agreed to release May&#8217;s funds. &#8220;Upon&nbsp;review of this case, we&nbsp;reached out to our customer&nbsp;to apologize for the delay&nbsp;and to let them know&nbsp;we are releasing their funds,&#8221; the bank stated.
May has been informed by the bank that he should&nbsp;expect the check this week.
Why It Matters: This incident underscores the potential risks that businesses face when banking institutions impose sudden freezes on accounts. 
In this case, the prolonged freeze led to significant financial distress for the business owner, ultimately pushing his company into bankruptcy. 
The incident also raises questions about the bank&#8217;s fraud detection and customer service processes, and whether they adequately protect the interests of their customers.

The first sale, garnering $6.75 billion, involves the provision of a range of munitions and support equipment. Israel has requested to purchase over 2,100 GBU-39/B Small Diameter Bombs (SDB-I), 2,800 MK 82 General Purpose bomb bodies, 13,000 Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) guidance kits, 3,475 JDAM guidance kits for different bomb bodies, and 17,475 FMU-152A/B fuzes.
Additionally, non-MDE items such as bomb components, munitions support, and logistical services will also be included.

This deal will significantly enhance Israel&#8217;s ability to defend itself from both current and future threats.
The State Department emphasized that the equipment is already compatible with Israel&#8217;s current military infrastructure and will not disrupt the regional military balance.
Deliveries are expected to begin in 2025, with Boeing (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), ATK Tactical Systems, L3Harris Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LHX#NYSE">LHX</a>), and McAlester Army Ammunition Plant being among the key suppliers for this transaction.
The <a target="_blank" href="https://www.dsca.mil/sites/default/files/mas/Press%20Release%20-%20Israel%2024-13%20CN.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">second approval</a>, valued at $660 million, is for the sale of 3,000 AGM-114 Hellfire missiles, a key air-to-ground weapon used to engage and destroy a variety of targets.
This will allow Israel to enhance its aerial defense capabilities, particularly in safeguarding its borders and critical infrastructure.
The missiles will be delivered in various configurations, depending on Israel&#8217;s needs, and will be supported by U.S. engineering, training, and technical assistance services.
Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>), based in Troy, Alabama, will be the primary contractor for this sale, with deliveries slated to begin in 2028.
Both sales are designed to ensure that Israel can maintain a high level of preparedness in the face of evolving regional threats.
The U.S. government reiterated its commitment to Israel&#8217;s security, emphasizing that the proposed sales are in line with U.S. national interests and will not affect the overall military balance in the region. Importantly, these deals will also enhance interoperability between Israeli forces and U.S. military operations, further strengthening their long-standing defense cooperation.
&#8220;There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale,&#8221; the government said in a release.

US Greenlights $7.4 Billion Military Deal With Israel: Key Weapons Deals Explained

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is reportedly gearing up <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/42935529/apples-slimmest-iphone-yet-the-iphone-17-air-expected-this-fall">to launch a revamped iPhone SE.</a>
Bloomberg columnist Mark Gurman in his <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2025-02-09/apple-s-new-iphone-se-will-start-most-pivotal-year-in-the-iphone-s-history?sref=TBDibEcD">latest </a>weekly "Power On" has revealed that despite its market leadership in the US, the iPhone is grappling with challenges such as import tariffs, regulatory scrutiny, and intense competition, especially in China. 
The iPhone&#8217;s technology is also trailing behind competitors like Gemini, which powers Google&#8217;s Pixel phones and Samsung Electronics Co.&#8217;s latest devices.
Over the holiday season, Apple&#8217;s iPhone sales saw a 1% dip, failing to meet Wall Street&#8217;s expectations.&nbsp;In China, where Apple Intelligence&nbsp;is yet to be available, the total revenue dropped by 11%. Despite these hurdles, the iPhone still accounts for 56% of Apple&#8217;s total sales.
During the company&#8217;s last earnings call, CEO Tim Cook hinted at more developments for the iPhone. John Ternus, the executive in charge of new iPhone hardware, also assured that the forthcoming models would be the most ambitious in the product&#8217;s history, Gurman mentioned.

The new iPhone SE, which is expected to be announced this week, will come with a larger screen, an in-house cellular modem chip, the A18 processor, and Apple Intelligence. 
It is anticipated to be priced around $500. The flagship iPhones, the iPhone 17 and 17 Pro, with updated designs, will be unveiled later this year.
While Apple is also increasing its hiring for home robotics work and planning&nbsp;to open new retail stores, the company&#8217;s focus remains on the iPhone, which is expected to remain crucial for several more years.
Why It Matters: The launch of the new iPhone SE comes at a critical time for Apple, as it navigates a challenging landscape marked by regulatory scrutiny, import tariffs, and fierce competition. 
The revamped iPhone SE, with its advanced features and competitive pricing, could potentially help Apple regain its market share and boost its revenues, especially in key markets like China. 
Furthermore, the continued focus on the iPhone underlines its importance to Apple&#8217;s overall business strategy, even as it explores new avenues like home robotics.

Apple's Revamped iPhone SE To Kickstart Pivotal Year Amid Challenges

The late billionaire investor Charlie Munger imparted his wisdom on evading life and business pitfalls, highlighting the significance of sound financial habits, integrity, and the avoidance of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/01/42935637/heres-how-charlie-mungers-final-investment-move-doubled-his-money-reveals-his-close-friend-li-lu">detrimental people and activities.</a>
What Happened: Munger dispensed his insights during a Q&amp;A <a href="https://buffett.cnbc.com/video/2023/05/08/afternoon-session---2023-meeting.html?&amp;start=2670.6">session </a>at Berkshire Hathaway&#8217;s annual shareholders meeting in 2023. Munger, a revered figure in the investing world, was the long-standing business ally of Warren Buffett, the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway.
In Munger&#8217;s view, individuals&nbsp;are &#8220;almost certain to succeed&#8221;&nbsp;if they consume less than they accumulate, invest judiciously, persistently learn, and uphold discipline. 
He warned against harmful individuals, particularly&nbsp;those &#8220;who are trying to&nbsp;deceive&nbsp;you or lie to you&nbsp;or aren&#8217;t reliable in meeting&nbsp;their commitments.&#8221;
Munger&#8217;s counsel is in line with his earlier remarks in 2019 about leading&nbsp;a &#8220;long and happy life.&#8221;&nbsp;He underscored the importance of maintaining a cheerful demeanor despite adversities and steering clear of traits linked with toxic people, such as envy or resentment.

&#8220;As for avoiding toxic people, look out for those who are trying to fool you or lie to you or aren't reliable in meeting their commitments. A great lesson of life is get them the hell out of your life and do it fast," he added. 
His long-standing business associate, Warren Buffett, also expressed his views on circumventing life&#8217;s significant errors by being an upright individual who acts with integrity. Buffett&#8217;s guidance was to&nbsp;&#8220;Write your obituary and figure&nbsp;out how to live up&nbsp;to it.&#8221;
Why It Matters: Munger&#8217;s advice carries weight due to his successful career and reputation for wisdom. His emphasis on good financial habits, integrity, and avoiding toxic people and activities provides a roadmap for success, not just in business, but in life. 
His long-time business partner, Warren Buffett, echoes these sentiments, further validating their importance.

Charlie Munger's Four Life Lessons: 'Consume Less Than You Accumulate, Invest Judiciously, Persistently Learn, and Uphold Discipline'

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates attributes his extraordinary achievements <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41869269/bill-gates-ready-to-give-up-62-of-his-fortune-advocates-for-wealth-tax">to his relentless curiosity.</a>
What Happened: In an interview with CNBC, Gates disclosed that his &#8220;insatiable, fervent sense of curiosity&#8221; has been a pivotal element in his success story. 
From his early years, Gates devoted countless hours to reading about diverse subjects, such as computer science, history, and climate change. His published <a href="https://www.gatesnotes.com/home/home-page-topic/reader/my-first-memoir-source-code">memoir</a>, &#8220;Source Code,&#8221; offers a deeper look into his pursuit of knowledge.
Gates, as a young boy, endeavored to read the entire World Book Encyclopedia collection owned by his family to quench his thirst for knowledge. 
Throughout his life, he has sought comprehensive knowledge, which he believes has been crucial to his success. His curiosity went beyond his primary interests in math and computer science, prompting him to enroll in additional courses&nbsp;like criminal justice and British&nbsp;history during his Harvard years.
"I put a lot of energy into trying to learn things. I got to use almost all of the knowledge that I acquired, and I was glad that I had the curiosity to take all of those different courses. So, I'm always encouraging people to learn a broad set of things," Gates <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/05/bill-gates-rampant-curiosity-sets-me-apart-helped-me-succeed.html">told </a>the outlet.

Even after stepping down as Microsoft&#8217;s CEO in 2000, Gates continued his quest for knowledge in various domains, which later inspired his philanthropic endeavors, reports the outlet. 
He appreciates growing up in a time before smartphones and social media, but also recognizes the abundance of information available to today&#8217;s generation.
"It's easier to learn things today. The stuff that's online is just so miraculous. I used to have to go and dig around the library and find different books," he added. 
Gates&#8217; deep-seated curiosity was nurtured by his family, who encouraged him to ask questions and engage in intellectual conversations. He acknowledges this support as a catalyst for his innate propensity towards learning.
Why It Matters: Gates&#8217; story underscores the importance of curiosity as a driving force for success. His wide-ranging interests and continuous learning have not only contributed to his professional achievements but have also shaped his philanthropic initiatives. 
His journey offers valuable insights for the current generation, emphasizing the importance of broad knowledge and lifelong learning in a rapidly changing world.

Bill Gates Says This Simple Trait Is the Secret to His Success

Last week the Donald Trump administration decided to pause the 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada. In another development, Elon Musk is also moving aggressively to shut down the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42635765/mary-trumps-warning-donald-trumps-second-term-already-is-more-dangerous-than-the-first">U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)</a>.
What Happened: In a recent blog <a href="https://www.marytrump.org/p/mary-trump-live-two-weeks-of-chaos">post</a>, Mary Trump, a clinical psychologist, shed light on the implications of the recent developments in the U.S. political arena.
&#8220;Four years ago, in the lead-up to the 2020 election, I and many others warned that American democracy was on a knife's edge. I also said that if Donald ever returned to power, it would mark the&nbsp;end&nbsp;of the American experiment. I desperately wanted to be wrong. But here we are,&#8221; she wrote. 
Musk&nbsp;is keen on shutting down USAID, a humanitarian assistance organization that has been operational since the Kennedy administration. Secretary of State&nbsp;Marco Rubio&nbsp;has been&nbsp;appointed as acting director of&nbsp;USAID, a move seen as an attempt to dismantle the agency&nbsp;by placing it under the&nbsp;direct control of the State Department.
&#8220;Donald's administration is trying to dismantle USAID by placing it under the State Department's direct control.&nbsp;Rubio has long criticized the agency for its lack of responsiveness to the State Department's directives. Now, he's in charge of gutting it,&#8221; she further added in the post.

Democrats, however, are pushing back. Representative Jamie Raskin criticized the move, stating that the shutdown of USAID evaluations is about &#8220;termination and obliteration of the&nbsp;major foreign aid programs of&nbsp;the United States of America.&#8221;
The impact of USAID&#8217;s potential shutdown is already being felt, with&nbsp;programs for refugees, HIV/AIDS treatment,&nbsp;and war-torn regions like Ukraine&nbsp;and Syria now at risk.
Trump&nbsp;also signed an executive order&nbsp;directing the Treasury to create&nbsp;an &#8220;American Sovereign Wealth Fund&#8221;, a&nbsp;move that would allow the&nbsp;U.S. government to profit from&nbsp;foreign companies like TikTok.
&#8220;We knew this was coming. The&nbsp;relentless power grabs, the disregard for law, the erosion of democratic institutions—all of it. Donald isn't just destroying democracy; he's handing&nbsp;unchecked power&nbsp;to people like&nbsp;Elon Musk,&nbsp;a billionaire who now controls&nbsp;our Treasury, our foreign aid, and likely soon our government's investment portfolio. This is not normal.&#8221; Mary Trump concluded. 
Why It Matters: The tariff pause and the potential shutdown of USAID are significant developments that could have far-reaching implications. 
The tariff pause could potentially avert a trade war, while the shutdown of USAID could disrupt humanitarian aid programs worldwide. The creation of an &#8220;American Sovereign Wealth Fund&#8221; could also change the dynamics of the U.S. government&#8217;s relationship with foreign companies. 
These developments warrant close monitoring in the coming weeks.

Mary Trump Slams Uncle, Says President 'Isn't Just Destroying Democracy, He's Handing Unchecked Power to People Like Elon Musk'

Elon Musk, known for his unconventional leadership style, is reportedly causing some unrest within the traditionally steady federal workforce. 
What Happened: Musk&#8217;s swift decision-making and high expectations, which have been instrumental in his companies like Tesla Inc., SpaceX, and Twitter, are now being applied to his role as a &#8220;special government employee&#8221; at the U.S. DOGE Service.
A report <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/02/09/federal-workers-elon-musk-former-staff-warnings/">by </a>The Washington Post has highlighted that Musk&#8217;s leadership style is causing friction with federal workers who are used to a more stable work environment. 
The report cited an incident where Musk abruptly terminated the employment of a longtime Twitter employee, Eric Frohnhoefer, following a disagreement on the social media platform.

This incident is seen as a reflection of Musk&#8217;s quick decision-making and his readiness to let go of staff who do not meet his high expectations.
Why It Matters: Musk&#8217;s intense work ethic and boundary-pushing leadership style have been lauded in the electric vehicle industry and space travel. However, his management approach is causing unease among federal workers who value job security and a steadier schedule. 
Despite the friction, many of Musk&#8217;s employees admire his innovative thinking and the financial support he brings to his projects. His leadership style, while unconventional, has been credited with revolutionizing several industries.
As Musk brings his unique management style to Washington, former employees predict his approach will cause further friction within the federal bureaucracy.
This development is significant as it highlights the potential challenges that innovative leaders like Musk may face when they enter traditional work environments, and the possible impact on the workforce.

Elon Musk's Former Employees Warn Federal Workers About Long Hours, Firings, And Much More

Stephen George, former vice president and controller of Celsius Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CELH#NASDAQ">CELH</a>), on Tuesday <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/former-vice-president-and-controller-publicly-traded-company-pleads-guilty-insider-trading">pleaded guilty </a>for his role in an insider trading scheme that netted him over $1.6 million in profits.
According to court documents, George was a member of the Finance Department at Celsius Holdings from November 2017 until April 7, 2023 and held roles including vice president and controller. Upon leaving the company, George allegedly emailed himself internal data about the company's first-quarter financial performance and over the following month bought 20,000 shares of Celsius and 300 call options on the stock.&nbsp;
After Celsius reported record quarterly revenue, George sold his shares and call options contracts in May 2023, netting $1.68 million.&nbsp;
George pleaded guilty to one count of securities fraud and faces a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison in sentencing scheduled on April 28.&nbsp;

Lockheed Martin Pays Nearly $30 To Settle Defective Pricing Allegations&nbsp;
The U.S. Department of Justice<a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/lockheed-martin-corporation-agrees-settle-false-claims-act-allegations-defective-pricing"> announced on </a>Thursday that Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) agreed to pay $29.74 million to resolve False Claims Act allegations of defective pricing on contracts for F-35 military aircraft.&nbsp;
This payment is in addition to $11.3 million that LMC previously paid to the Department of Defense for the same undisclosed cost and pricing data on some of the same contracts.
According to court documents, between 2013 and 2015, Lockheed Martin inflated pricing proposals it submitted to obtain contracts for the F-35 by failing to provide to DOD's F-35 Joint Program Office accurate, complete and current cost and pricing data during the negotiations leading to the award of five contracts for the production or sustainment of the F-35.&nbsp;
"Those who do business with the government must do so fairly and honestly," said Acting Assistant Attorney General Brett A. Shumate of the Justice Department's Civil Division. "We will pursue contractors that knowingly misuse taxpayer funds."

Financial Crime Weekly: Former Celsius VP Pleads Guilty To Insider Trading, Lockheed Martin Pays Nearly $30 Million Settlement

As the anticipation for Super Bowl LIX builds, an unusual betting trend has surfaced, with bets revolving around pop sensation Taylor Swift gaining popularity.
What Happened: According to a report, sportsbooks are offering a range of bets focused on Taylor Swift, who is expected to attend the game in support of her partner, Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce.
The most favored bet is on whether Swift will join Kendrick Lamar for the halftime show. &#8220;It&nbsp;was originally a 16-1 shot&nbsp;but is now halved to&nbsp;8-1,&#8221; said&nbsp;Jake Ashton, OLBG editor. Swift and Lamar had earlier teamed up for a 2015 remix of Swift&#8217;s hit &#8220;Bad Blood.&#8221;
According to the report <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/02/08/sports/taylor-swift-super-bowl-lix-wager-one-of-the-most-popular-bets-ahead-of-the-big-game/">by </a>New York Post, additional betting&nbsp;specials include whether Swift will&nbsp;be featured&nbsp;on TV during the National&nbsp;Anthem,&nbsp;if the Super Bowl MVP&nbsp;will mention Swift in his speech, or if Swift will share&nbsp;a Kansas City Chiefs bet&nbsp;on her Instagram account, where&nbsp;she has a staggering 282 million followers.
Despite speculation about a possible engagement between Swift and Kelce, bets on Kelce proposing at the game have seen the least interest.

Other betting specials include odds on whether Swift will appear on TV during the National Anthem (3-1), if the Super Bowl MVP will mention the billionaire singer in his speech (4-1), or if she will share a Kansas City Chiefs bet on her Instagram account, which boasts 282 million followers (50-1).
Amid rumors of the power couple&#8217;s engagement, other betting specials include Kelce dropping to one knee after the game (5-1) or proposing and then announcing his retirement (25-1), reports the outlet. 
Why It Matters: The surge in Taylor Swift-related wagers highlights the increasing intersection of pop culture and sports betting. As sportsbooks seek to attract a wider audience, they are offering more diverse and entertainment-focused bets. 
This trend could potentially reshape the landscape of sports betting, making it more accessible and appealing to a broader demographic, beyond traditional sports enthusiasts.

Super Bowl 2025 Sees Surge In Taylor Swift-Related Wagers

President Donald Trump has ruled out the possibility of deporting Prince Harry, the British royal who is currently embroiled in an<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43073771/chicago-braces-for-massive-immigration-raid-hours-after-donald-trumps-second-inauguration"> immigration lawsuit</a>.
What Happened: The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank, has launched a lawsuit alleging that Prince Harry concealed previous illicit drug use, which should have prevented him from receiving a US visa.
Despite these allegations, Trump stated, &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to do that. I&#8217;ll leave him alone. He&#8217;s&nbsp;got enough problems with his&nbsp;wife. She&#8217;s terrible.&#8221; 
According to the report <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/02/08/us-news/trump-rules-out-deporting-prince-harry-takes-jab-at-meghan-markle/">by</a> The New York Post, the President also used this opportunity to praise Prince William, Harry&#8217;s elder brother, whom he had met privately in Paris in December.
Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, have been vocal about their disapproval of Trump in the past.

The Heritage Foundation has used Harry&#8217;s autobiography &#8220;Spare,&#8221; where&nbsp;he admitted to using cocaine,&nbsp;cannabis, and psychedelics, as the foundation for their lawsuit against&nbsp;the Department of Homeland Security&nbsp;to force the release of&nbsp;his US visa records.
The Heritage Foundation claims that Prince Harry was given special&nbsp;treatment by the Biden administration&nbsp;when&nbsp;he and Meghan moved to&nbsp;California in 2020 following their&nbsp;controversial departure from the royal family.
Why It Matters:&nbsp;The ongoing lawsuit and Trump&#8217;s response to it highlight the contentious issue of immigration in the United States. 
The allegations against Prince Harry raise questions about the fairness and transparency of the US visa process. The case also underscores the political tensions between the Trump administration and the Biden administration, as well as the strained relations between the Trumps and the Sussexes. 
This incident is likely to fuel further debates on immigration policies and the treatment of high-profile individuals in the United States.

The Wall Street Journal Reported Sunday, Elliott Management Has Built A Stake In BP; Will Push For Transformational Changes

American financier and investor Peter Lynch&nbsp;has imparted his wisdom on investing, laying emphasis on the significance of comprehension, patience, and discipline in the stock market, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/stock-split/25/01/42804677/investment-guru-peter-lynch-if-you-invest-only-in-an-index-youll-never-beat-it-brushing-up-on-stock-picking-skills-is-wise">especially for individuals in their 60s.</a>
What Happened: Lynch, who is celebrated for managing the&nbsp;Fidelity Magellan Fund&nbsp;and delivering an impressive 29.2% annual return, has consistently promoted the concept of value investing. His best-selling books, such as &#8220;One Up on Wall Street,&#8221; and his unique market phrases have cemented his position as an iconic investor.
Lynch&#8217;s counsel to those in their 60s is to invest in areas they comprehend and have faith in, and to demonstrate patience and discipline, particularly during periods of market volatility. 
"Buy only what you understand, believe in, and intend to stick with, even when others are chasing the next miracle," he said in one of his books. 
He further cautions against the perils of responding to daily news headlines, highlighting that these often do not accurately represent a company&#8217;s actual fundamentals.
He also discourages making impulsive decisions based on market advice from television or newspapers. Instead, he advocates waiting for the appropriate price and maintaining confidence in decision-making. Lynch&#8217;s strategy invariably circles back to long-term investment.

"I've found that when the market's going down and you buy funds wisely, at some point in the future you will be happy. You won't get there by reading ‘Now is the time to buy,&#8221; he cautioned. 
One of his memorable quotes, "ultimately it is the stock market nor even the companies themselves that determine an investor's fate. It is the investor."&nbsp;underscores the significance of individual actions in achieving investment success. 
This involves understanding company fundamentals, having a strategy, and sticking to one&#8217;s judgment.

Why It Matters: Lynch&#8217;s advice comes at a time when market volatility is high and investors, particularly those nearing retirement age, are seeking strategies to safeguard their investments. 
His emphasis on understanding, patience, and discipline, as well as his caution against reacting to daily news headlines, is particularly relevant in today&#8217;s fast-paced, information-overloaded market environment. 
His advice serves as a reminder that successful investing is a long-term game, requiring a solid understanding of company fundamentals and a disciplined approach to decision-making.
