Stocks That Hit 52-Week Highs On Wednesday

A surprising number of renters could afford to buy a home, according to a new Zillow Analysis.
Despite 39% of U.S. families <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/03/37916234/renting-reigns-as-mortgage-rates-soar-but-homeownership-still-holds-the-crown">renting</a> in 2022, nearly 8 million qualified as "income mortgage-ready." This means they could likely handle a mortgage payment for a typical home in their area without exceeding 30% of their income.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>A billion-dollar investment strategy with minimums as low as $10 —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/fundrise-flagship-fund"> you can become part of the next big real estate boom today.</a></li>
<li>If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a 7-9% target yield with monthly dividends<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund"> would you invest in it</a>?</li>
</ul>
While some people prefer renting, Zillow economist Orphe Divounguy suggests that many potential homeowners may simply be unaware of their financial ability to purchase a home.
"If your lease is about to end, it might be wise to determine whether you're in a position to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/05/38818007/dave-ramsey-says-renting-is-a-smart-financial-move-to-avoid-becoming-house-poor">buy a house</a>," Melissa Cohn, regional vice president at William Raveis Mortgage, told CNBC.
To understand your homebuying potential, Cohn recommends starting with a lender&#8217;s verbal prequalification. This initial step can determine whether gathering the necessary paperwork is worthwhile.
Before that conversation, it's crucial to clearly understand your financial picture. This includes knowing your annual income, debt levels, credit score, and debt-to-income ratio.

<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" />
According to Brian Nevins, a sales manager at Bay Equity, understanding your purchasing power is crucial to determining your homebuying readiness. Many potential homebuyers are unsure about their credit situation or hesitate to check it for fear of negative impacts. However, experts recommend monitoring your credit for several months before house hunting to identify any areas for improvement.
"That's changed a lot in our industry, where we do soft credit verifications upfront now, and where it's going to have no impact on somebody's credit score," Nevins said. "There's really no harm in checking."
Your credit score determines whether you qualify for a mortgage and the interest rate you'll pay. A higher credit score typically means a lower interest rate.
Building credit is important, but so is managing your debt. A high debt-to-income ratio, influenced by factors like student loans or credit card balances, can hinder your mortgage approval chances.

A high debt-to-income ratio is the primary reason mortgage applications are denied, according to Divounguy. Lenders use the ratio to assess whether you can handle an additional mortgage payment on top of your current debts.
To create a realistic homebuying budget, you must understand your debt-to-income ratio.
"Your debt-to-income ratio is simply the percentage of your monthly income dedicated to debt payments, including car loans, student loans, credit card minimums and your estimated mortgage payment," Nevins said.
Your ability to afford a home depends on several factors beyond your credit and debt. Your area&#8217;s median home price, down payment, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and potential HOA fees all play a role. Consulting with a mortgage professional can provide valuable insights into fully understanding your financial picture and homebuying potential.

Snoop Dogg Steals The Show At Paris Olympics: Dances With Torch, Cheers On US Swimmers Who Take First Gold Medal

This article was originally published on <a href="https://cannabis.net/blog/medical/are-psychedelic-dispensaries-the-next-big-business-boom">Cannabis.net </a>and appears here with permission.
We&rsquo;re right smack in the middle of a&nbsp;<a href="https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/im-good-with-weed-so-why-should-i-try-psychedelics">psychedelic revolution</a>, and there is serious interest in psychedelics most especially for its ability to treat several major conditions that are resistant to conventional medications. The interest is only growing, and so is the list of conditions that psychedelics may be able to treat. 
But we can&rsquo;t deny that we need to have more conversations and studies about psychedelics. We also need to discuss how it&rsquo;s going to be regulated in a retail market, especially one where&nbsp;<a href="https://cannabis.net/blog/personal-story/cannabis-and-psychedelics">cannabis</a>&nbsp;is already legal and the marketplace is thriving.&nbsp;
<h3>Which Psychedelics Can You Buy These Days?</h3>
<a href="https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/things-you-should-know-before-trying-magic-mushrooms-for-the-first-time">Magic mushrooms</a>&nbsp;or psilocybin mushrooms, the most popular and accessible of all psychedelics, are already quite accessible in much of North America. Psilocybin mushrooms can be purchased raw or dried. They are also widely consumed in processed form: made into chocolates, capsules, and tea.&nbsp;
Other common psychedelics include LSD or acid, ketamine, MDMA, and peyote. Some are more challenging to access than others. That said, how do we decide who gets to sell them and where? Several cannabis dispensaries and head shops are also selling psychedelics though we have to keep in mind that the legalization and laws differ for these two classes of drugs. They can also easily be purchased online or in the black market.
The ideal scenario would be to have specialized psychedelic medicine dispensaries where individuals can obtain their hallucinogenic medication of choice. Consumers and patients will also need to have doctors on board who can get them prescriptions in the first place. And before that&hellip;
Following In The Footsteps Of Cannabis&hellip;.
Much like how cannabis legalization spread throughout North America, resulting in the growth of thousands of dispensaries and massive weed businesses and conglomerates alongside it, a few things need to happen first.
Of course, psychedelics must be decriminalized and legalized. There have already been some cities/counties and states that have paved the way for decriminalizing psychedelics.&nbsp;<a href="https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/here-come-the-psychedelics-denver-decriminalizes-magic-mushrooms">Denver</a>&nbsp;became the very first city in the United States to do so back in 2019, followed by Colorado. Meanwhile, Oregon made strides as the first state to ever legalize psilocybin in 2020. Given the&nbsp;<a href="https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/psychedelic-acceptance-increasing-among-college-age-adults-says-new-survey">popularity</a>&nbsp;of these substances today, we&rsquo;ll likely see an even greater demand to legalize these drugs in the near future &ndash; which will be critical for spreading public acceptance and thus,&nbsp;<a href="https://cannabis.net/find/dispensary">dispensary</a>&nbsp;establishment.
While we already do have several solid studies from investigators in the United States as well as in other parts of the globe,&nbsp; we still need much more ongoing research especially on the impact of psychedelics on depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health conditions. Additionally, we need a better understanding of psychedelics and what it can do for our physical health too. And just like cannabis, the subject of dosage will require a more thorough understanding and significantly more research.
<h3>The Role Of Government And Public Policy</h3>
As of late, most policy reforms have been too focused on expanding legal access as well as research. However, we also need to work on very specific policy changes so that we can mitigate negative events such as backlash in case the market is exposed to several major negative occurrences related to psychedelics.
That&rsquo;s why we must also have guidance and support from the business community so that the economy will benefit from the legalization of psychedelics as well as the growth of dispensaries.
According to RAND, a major think tank that has been influential in the field of government policy, it will be critical to have the support of the federal government. RAND published a report last year entitled,<a href="https://www.rand.org/pubs/research_reports/RRA2825-1.html">&nbsp;How To Regulate Psychedelics</a>, and it&rsquo;s one of the first and biggest research papers ever written to delve deeper into how a retail psychedelic market would look like.
&ldquo;The federal government currently has multiple options when it comes to the supply of psychedelics, but it does not have unlimited time,&rdquo; says the report. &ldquo;Now is the time for US federal policymakers to decide whether they want psilocybin and other psychedelic substances to follow in the footsteps of the for-profit cannabis model,&rdquo; the report reads. 
The report also points out that people consume psychedelics and cannabis in different ways. For this reason, we shouldn&rsquo;t be comparing the decriminalization of cannabis to that of psychedelics. One of the ways the two differ in consumption is that people don&rsquo;t consume psychedelics nearly as often as cannabis; whereas many people can smoke weed daily, consumers are infrequent at best when it comes to psychedelics.
&ldquo;A major takeaway from our analyses is the extent to which infrequent users drive the market for psychedelics,&rdquo; wrote the authors. &ldquo;For cannabis, it is negligible: Those who reported using five or fewer days in the past month account for about 5 percent of the total use days in the past month. For psychedelics, that figure is closer to 60 percent.&rdquo;
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
We can only hope that government officials aren&rsquo;t going to put out the fires of psychedelics. It&rsquo;s an extremely exciting field medically and scientifically because the world needs new options for treating&nbsp;<a href="https://cannabis.net/blog/medical/can-psychedelics-help-alcoholics-quit-booze-new-studies-just-released-on-psilocybin-and-alcohol">different diseases which psychedelics</a>&nbsp;have been shown to be successful in treating.
We should also remember that psychedelics is not a one-size-fits-all solution; while they do work very well for some people, some have had little benefit. This is why it&rsquo;s important to reinstate the importance of clinical trials that require several rounds of treatment. That, along with new laws that will help regulate psychedelics while improving access and decreasing costs, are all sorely needed by the general public right now.
At the very least, even if psychedelics and cannabis are extremely different, we can at least start by regulating psychedelics the way we do cannabis. Baby steps &ndash; but we&rsquo;re getting there.

Are Psychedelic Dispensaries The Next Big Business Boom?

By <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/author/todd-harrison" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Todd Harrison</a> via <a href="https://substack.com/@toddharrison" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cannabis Confidential</a> (July 27)
History was made Thursday when <a href="https://karate.com/en/how-to-watch">Karate Combat 48</a> arrived in Nashville, Tennessee.
I had never been to an MMA event—or to Nashville, for that matter—but as a fight and music fan, I was eager to check those boxes off my bucket list.
I reached out to a buddy from high school who now lives in Florida to see if he would like to meet me there, which was exactly what happened late Wednesday; and after a few hours of acclimating to the Music City, Paul and I were ready for fight night.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F84df4667-e529-4e01-9b0c-07f238bd83b8_942x942.jpeg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F84df4667-e529-4e01-9b0c-07f238bd83b8_942x942.jpeg" alt="IMG_7859.JPG" title="IMG_7859.JPG" /></a></figure>
Why this fight, and what sorta history, you ask? Our portfolio company Horticulture, which owns the <a href="https://tempters.us/">Cure Brand and Tempters</a>, was one of the top sponsors of the event, which was the first THC sponsorship of a professional sports league, the first time THC was sold at a Tennessee arena, and the first time that cannabis and crypto—the other top sponsors—have <a href="https://karate.com/news/horticulture-co-and-karate-combat-announce-strategic-beverage-partnership">combined forces</a>.
I'm not a crypto guy, but I've been watching the industry evolve as an emerging asset class. In fact, I remember sitting on a MarketWatch panel over ten years ago talking about the potential for Bitcoin as I dug into the cannabis space. I felt better about the latter, <a href="https://toddharrison.substack.com/p/brokedown-palace-e28">given my experiences</a>; we know what happened next.

The irony of these streams again crossing ten years later wasn't lost on me. We talk about the opportunity cost of the canna trade and there is no better example than crypto—and their community was out in force at the Nashville conference.
Security was tight. The Secret Service surveilled the area and TSA-on-steroids patted us down as we entered the arena. They were thorough too, (hypothetically) finding a (hypothetical) Big Dog in one pocket, a (hypothetical) Sunburn vape in another…
…which made it more surreal when, after entering the arena, we were encouraged to consume as many Tempter's THC-infused drinks as we could swallow.
I eschewed booze for canna drinks a year ago but this was different—it was in public and in a red state, no less. As I absorbed the dichotomy, Paul pulled at me and said, "hey, you wanna do this," so I did, not knowing what this was, which is when I met Hailey, better known as the "Hoch Tuah Girl," for reasons I'll let you <a href="https://www.thecut.com/article/hawk-tuah-girl-viral-tiktok-video-explained.html">research yourself.</a>

We made our way to the pit, where I felt a bit like Luke Skywalker must have felt the first time he walked into the Cantina. I was fascinated by the personalities that surrounded me, many of them young and happy, all of them seemingly wealthy.
I chatted up <a href="https://twitter.com/chooserich">a friendly fella named Nick</a> who told me who the players that were seated around us were, from Brock Pierce in an orange fedora to Charlie Lee…
<figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F13efb1dd-8cc6-4f7d-b876-50aaf19bf68e_1216x2579.jpeg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F13efb1dd-8cc6-4f7d-b876-50aaf19bf68e_1216x2579.jpeg" alt="IMG_7897.jpg" title="IMG_7897.jpg" /></a></figure>

It was sensory overload, but I did pick up a few themes. For starters, I didn't hear one person mention hemp-based cannabinoid drinks. I did, however, hear everyone rave how much they loved the cannabis drinks—almost as if it were the same plant (it is).
We've talked about the <a href="https://toddharrison.substack.com/p/the-battle-of-botanical-cousins">Hemp Wars</a>, and how interesting a case study it will be: one industry has ground through every impediment imaginable to reach $40B annual revs and the other slipped through a Farm Bill loophole and grew to the same size—with some states retrofitting regulations as others banning intoxicating hemp altogether.
All the while, cannabis remains a Schedule I narcotic, deemed worse than fentanyl.
The Tennessee crowd didn't seem to care either way, with the (hypothetical) exception of law enforcement, which demonstrates how <s>f&#x2A;cked up</s> incongruent this construct is.

I don't have the sea legs I used to so by the time the fights ended at 11:30 (12:30 ET), I was gassed—but Tempter's was hosting the after-party and we couldn't be rude.
"We'll show face, shake hands and then get some sleep," I said to Paul, who also had an early flight, as we made our way to Broadway after a pit-stop for pizza.

If I'm being honest, I doubt I woulda been at The Valentine if I were still drinking—but I dropped booze, thanks largely to Tempter's (true story). Still, it was good to step out of my comfort zone and connect with stakeholders and influencers outside my orbit.

"These drinks aren't replacing cannabis," I said, more than once, "they replace alcohol—at 5 calories a can—and is an introduction to cannabinoids that opens the door to a deeper, more meaningful relationship with the plant."
But don't take my (our) word for it, <a href="https://tempters.us/">find out for yourself</a>. "TODD24" will slice 25% off your first purchase and "TODD" is good for 20% after that, which is the same discount that I get, and the getting is good ($4/can when ordering a case).

Cannabis, Crypto And Karate Combat: Nashville Hits The Trifecta

Well-known entrepreneur and TV personality <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/07/39928069/kevin-oleary-sees-no-end-to-soaring-home-prices-its-a-new-america">Kevin O'Leary</a> recently spoke on Fox News about taxing the rich in response to a caller stating, "I just want an America where I have the chance to pay less in taxes than people like Kevin O&#8217;Leary." O'Leary expressed concerns about the political rhetoric that targets successful entrepreneurs and the potential repercussions of consequential policies on the American economy.&nbsp;
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>How do billionaires pay less in income tax than you?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/tax-deferring-adv"> Tax deferring is their number one strategy</a>.</li>
<li>If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a 7-9% target yield with monthly dividends<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund"> would you invest in it</a>?</li>
</ul>
O'Leary stated that he doesn't want to talk about an exclusive club of wealthy people – that's not what this is about. Instead, he says thinking about America as an entrepreneurial economy would be better. "We reward entrepreneurship," he said. "We reward men and women that take risks to start businesses in their basement and create hundreds of thousands and millions of jobs."
He mentioned that other successful entrepreneurs like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk should not be penalized for their achievements. "Do you want to punish them for their success? Is that what America has become? Let&#8217;s punish our entrepreneurs? No! They pay their fair share and percentage of taxes. They abide by the tax laws. And they create jobs."
Trending: Will the surge continue or decline on real estate prices?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/realbricks"> People are finding out about risk-free real estate investing that lets you cash out whenever you want.</a>
Diving further into entrepreneurs&#8217; unique challenges, O'Leary explained that many don't draw salaries and instead reinvest their earnings into growing their businesses. "We don&#8217;t make any money because we&#8217;re taking it all and putting it into companies and starting to grow them. And we get capital gains. Now, if you don&#8217;t like capital gains tax, you want to increase it and become very uncompetitive. Entrepreneurs will take their money somewhere else. And foreign investors will also go somewhere else."
Many others do not share O&#8217;Leary&#8217;s sentiments, particularly those not part of the billionaire class. Oxfam America, a nonprofit dedicated to fighting inequality and injustice, firmly believes that billionaires don't pay their fair share in taxes. On their website, Oxfam cited studies that revealed the wealthiest 400 billionaire families in the U.S. paid an average federal individual tax rate of 8.2%, while the average American taxpayer paid 13% in 2021.&nbsp;
See Also: Can you guess how many retire with a $5,000,000 nest egg? &#8211;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/retire-5mil-nest-egg"> How does it compare to the average?</a>
"That's not paying your fair share," Oxfam wrote. "Instead of rewarding wealth over work, our tax system should ensure that billionaires play by the same set of rules as the rest of us. It's good for the planet, and it's essential to the preservation of our democracy."
It's not just the lower class and "poorer" citizens that want increased taxes for the wealthy, though. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/39657043/bill-gates-wants-to-pay-more-in-taxes-ive-been-disproportionately-rewarded-while-many-others-who">Bill Gates</a> has even advocated for higher taxes on the rich, including himself.&nbsp;
The disparity about the fairness of the U.S. tax system may likely never be settled. Advocates for higher <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/39738421/were-high-income-americans-really-paying-91-income-tax-in-the-1950s">taxes on the rich</a> argue that a more progressive tax system is essential for bridging the gap between the rich and the poor and providing better support for health care and education. On the other hand, O'Leary argues that excessive taxation could stifle innovation and entrepreneurship, which are crucial to the American economy.&nbsp;
As policymakers navigate these complex issues, it&#8217;s important to consider the potential impacts on all segments of society, from entrepreneurs and investors to everyday workers and taxpayers.

"Bashing The Rich Is Not What America's About," Kevin O'Leary Says of Increasing Taxes For The Wealthy

Former President Donald Trump advocated for a strategic national crypto stockpile at a recent Bitcoin Conference. He assured that if he were to return to the presidency, the U.S. government <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39565763/as-trump-prepares-for-comeback-latest-pew-poll-reveals-which-presidential-candidate-rest-of-world-pr">would retain its Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) holdings.</a>
What Happened: Trump made the proposal during his keynote speech at the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville on Saturday.
The former president&#8217;s remarks come in the midst of the 2024 presidential race, where the campaign for America&#8217;s frontline fintech adopters is gaining traction. 
Trump&#8217;s proposal to retain the U.S. government&#8217;s current Bitcoin holdings appears less radical compared to other proposals presented at the conference, as <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/07/27/trump-bitcoin-conference-harris.html">per</a> CNBC.
"For too long our government has violated the cardinal rule that every Bitcoiner knows by heart: Never sell your Bitcoin," Trump said at the conference during his keynote speech.
"This afternoon I'm laying out my plan to ensure that the United States will be the crypto capital of the planet and the Bitcoin superpower of the world and we'll get it done," he added.

During the crypto event, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a third-party candidate, pledged to establish a reserve of 4 million Bitcoin, starting with the U.S. government&#8217;s current Bitcoin holdings from criminal seizures. 
Meanwhile, Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wy.), proposed to accumulate an official U.S. federal reserve of 1 million Bitcoin over five years.
Trump criticized President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris administration&#8217;s approach to cryptocurrency and Bitcoin, stating, &#8220;The Biden-Harris administration&#8217;s repression of crypto and Bitcoin is wrong and it&#8217;s very bad for our country.&#8221;
He also pledged to form a &#8220;Bitcoin and crypto presidential advisory council&#8221; and vowed to dismantle what he termed the &#8220;anti-crypto crusade&#8221; of Biden and Harris.
Why It Matters: Trump&#8217;s stance on Bitcoin has seen a significant shift since his tenure in the White House, where he dismissed Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
His recent endorsement for the digital currency aligns with the Republican Party&#8217;s pledge to remove the Biden-Harris administration&#8217;s regulatory hurdles, turning crypto regulation into a pivotal voting issue for the upcoming November elections.

Trump Aims To Make US 'Crypto Capital Of The Planet': 'We'll Get It Done'

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and the union representing its retail workers in Towson, Maryland, have reached a preliminary labor agreement. This marks the first time <a href="http://Apple's Market Share Drops In China, A18 Chip Integration To Bring AI Features To iPhone 16 And More: This Week In Appleverse">the tech giant</a> has entered into such a deal in the United States.
What Happened: As reported by <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/27/business/apple-union-labor-agreement/index.html">CNN</a>, the preliminary labor agreement was finalized late Friday. This is a first not only for an Apple store but also for any of the company&#8217;s U.S. workers.
The retail employees at the Towson Apple store became members of the International Association of Machinists union in June 2022 and have been negotiating their first contract since then. In May, they authorized a strike without setting a deadline.
The labor agreement, still pending ratification by a vote of the 85 rank-and-file members at the store, is a significant breakthrough. Other high-profile union organizing efforts, including those at Starbucks and Amazon, have not yet resulted in deals for their workers.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39984404/apple-joins-meta-and-google-pledges-support-for-bidens-ai-regulations">Apple Joins Meta And Google, Pledges Support For Biden&#8217;s AI Regulations</a>
The Machinists union disclosed that the Apple store agreement includes scheduling enhancements for improved work-life balance and a 10% pay increase over the three-year contract. It also offers job protections like severance packages for laid-off workers and limits on contract employees.
Apple, which operates around 270 stores in the United States, has only one other store in Oklahoma City that has voted to unionize, joining a different union, the Communications Workers of America. However, this store is not included in the current tentative labor agreement.
An Apple spokesperson refrained from commenting on the tentative agreement, referring to a previous statement where the company expressed its deep appreciation for its team members and pride in offering them industry-leading compensation and exceptional benefits.
Why It Matters: This preliminary labor agreement is a significant milestone for Apple and its US retail workers. It sets a precedent for future labor negotiations and could potentially influence other tech companies to follow suit. The deal also highlights the increasing power and influence of unions in the tech industry, a sector that has traditionally been resistant to unionization. The outcome of the ratification vote by the Apple store workers will be keenly watched by industry observers.

From Bill Gates To Oprah Winfrey: The Most Lavish Celebrity Homes Revealed

The United States is favored to win the most medals — and gold medals — at <a href="https://drupal-cloudfront.benzinga.com/topic/2024-summer-olympics">the 2024 Summer Olympics</a>.
And the U.S. men's basketball team could bring home one of those gold medals.
What Happened: The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting/24/07/39678086/bronny-james-to-win-nba-rookie-of-the-year-summer-league-debut-not-scaring-away-bettors-he">balance of international players</a> in the National Basketball Association in recent years could be a key topic at the Olympic Games, which take place from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting/24/07/39989579/6-stocks-going-for-gold-during-2024-summer-olympics-biggest-event-in-company-history">July 26 through Aug. 11</a>.
Back in 1992, only nine NBA players were featured on teams the U.S. Men's Basketball team played against. 
At the 2024 Olympics, the figure <a href="https://x.com/HoHighlights/status/1815743319529464011">jumps </a>to 61.
Team USA has one of its best-ever basketball teams for the Olympics. Observers are drawing comparisons to the 1992 Olympic gold medal-winning squad known as the "Dream Team."
The 2024 team is led by LeBron James, competing in his fourth Olympics, and Steph Curry, who will compete in his first Olympics.
The 1992 Olympics team was led by Michael Jordan and featured many all-time greats of the NBA of the 1990s. The team went undefeated during the Olympics, winning games by an average of 44 points. The Dream Team's closest game was a 32-point victory over Croatia in the gold medal game.
Team USA has won 16 gold medals, one silver medal and two bronze medals at the Summer Olympics, including four straight gold medals.
But in recent years, Team USA has struggled on the international stage, including no medals won at the 2019 and 2023 FIBA World Cups. The recent performance led to more NBA stars, including Curry, willing to play in this year's Olympics.
Team USA won its tune-up games before the Olympics started, but done so with lower point margins than many fans and sportsbooks predicted.
This includes USA beating South Sudan by only one point, a team it was favored to beat by 41.5 points. USA also beat Germany by only four points in a game it was favored by 15.5 points in.

Olympic Schedule: Team USA is part of Group C at the 2024 Summer Olympics and will play three games in the group stage against the other group teams, who are Serbia, Puerto Rico and South Sudan.
Below is the current <a href="https://www.usab.com/teams/5x5-mens-olympics/schedules">schedule </a>for Team USA and which Comcast Corp-owned (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>) channel the games will air (all games will stream on Peacock as well):
<ul>
<li>July 28: vs. Serbia 11:15 a.m. ET on NBC</li>
<li>July 31: vs. South Sudan 3 p.m. ET on USA</li>
<li>Aug. 3: vs. Puerto Rico 11:15 a.m. ET on NBC</li>
</ul>
Team USA will continue advancing if they finish in first or second in the group stage. The top two third-place teams from the group stage will also advance to the quarterfinals.
The gold medal game will be played on Aug. 10 at 3:30 p.m. ET.
Betting Odds: Team USA is the heavy betting favorite to take home the gold medal at the 2024 Summer Olympics, but the tournament features many teams with NBA players.
Canada's roster includes 10 NBA players, including Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. France features several NBA players including reigning Rookie of the Year Victor Wembanyama. Serbia also features Nikola Jokic, who has won three of the last four NBA MVP awards.
Here are the current favorites to win the gold medal in Men's Basketball, as reported by sportsbook DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>):
<ul>
<li>USA: -500</li>
<li>Canada: +1,100</li>
<li>France: +1,200</li>
<li>Serbia: +1,600</li>
<li>Greece: +2,000</li>
<li>Germany: +3,000</li>
</ul>
A $100 bet on Team USA to win gold would pay out a profit of $20 if they are champions during the 2024 Summer Olympics.
Team USA has odds of -1,800 to win Group C and odds of -3,500 to win a medal.
Bettors can also bet on which player on Team USA will have the most points, rebounds and assists in the tournament and several other prop markets. LeBron and Curry are the co-favorites at +300 to lead USA in points.

USA Men's Basketball Team Heavily Favored In 2024 Summer Olympics: Can LeBron James, Steph Curry And Team Live Up To Dream Team Comparisons?

In a recent <a href="https://youtu.be/36cvblilqe8?si=XWKt14BKCVhrpx40&amp;t=2081">interview</a>, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/fintech-awards/anthony-scaramucci?">Anthony Scaramucci</a>, founder of SkyBridge Capital and former White House Communications Director, shared his thoughts on the chaotic state of American politics and its impact on the financial markets. Known for his candid insights, Scaramucci didn&#8217;t hold back in his assessment.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Markets Thrive on Chaos</h2>
Scaramucci kicked off by highlighting an unexpected market sentiment. &#8220;The markets like sh&#x2A;t shows,&#8221; he said bluntly. He explained that financial markets actually thrive on chaos and split governments, appreciating the inertia that often comes with such scenarios. &#8220;I think the FED has generally done a good job. The markets absorb the pain of 2022 and the rate hikes,&#8221; he added.
He argued that the Federal Reserve (FED) is still the primary driver of market dynamics: &#8220;Ultimately, this is still a Fed-driven market.&#8221; He also suggested that regardless of who wins the next election, the markets anticipate FED rate cuts by the end of the year.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Biden Better For Business</h2>
Scaramucci also stated, &#8220;If you look at who&#8217;s better for capitalism and who&#8217;s better for the economy, it&#8217;s actually Joe Biden.&#8221; &#8220;But Trump has a perception because of The Apprentice and pro-business and this sort of thing that he would be better,&#8221; explained Scaramucci, who turned from a Trump supporter and associate in the past couple of years to a harsh and blunt critic.
Scaramucci also revealed Trump&#8217;s greatest fears and dislikes among politicians. &#8220;The number one Democrat that Trump was most scared of was Joe Biden,&#8221; he said, referencing Trump&#8217;s attempts to undermine Biden through his supposed dealings with Zelenskyy.
As for personal dislikes, Trump's animosity toward John McCain was unparalleled, according to Scaramucci. He recounted his failed attempt to get Trump to visit the ailing McCain, noting, &#8220;Trump was maniacal with the hatred of John McCain. A war hero, a veteran, a patriot – all the things that Trump is incapable of.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Comments On Kamala Harris And Cryptocurrency</h2>
With President Joe Biden stepping out of the race, Scaramucci talked about what the Democrats might do next in another recent <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/mFTI1NtBlBg">podcast</a>. He mentioned that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/07/39901896/anthony-scaramucci-says-kamala-harris-will-have-historic-win-against-trump-if-the-vice-president-doe">party likes to focus on identity politics</a> and emphasized the importance of having Kamala Harris, the first African American woman vice president, on the ticket.&nbsp;
According to him, if Harris secures the nomination and presents herself with the same competence and confidence as Condoleezza Rice, she will win the election. &#8220;If Harris shows up like she has over the last three and a half years, she&#8217;s going to get trounced,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;But if she shows her true capability, unguarded and unintimidated, she will achieve a historic win,&#8221; he added.

I think it will be a dramatic new generation reset for the Democrats,&#8221; Scaramucci said.
Anthony Scaramucci&#8217;s thoughts give us a lively view of how politics can affect the economy. It&#8217;s important to see the whole picture, though. Both Biden and Trump bring different strengths and perceptions to the table. While Scaramucci argues that Joe Biden might be better for the economy, citing his policies, he acknowledges that Trump has a strong pro-business image that resonates with many. The mix of political leadership, market behavior, and regulations shapes our economic future. Understanding these factors helps us better handle the ups and downs of the financial markets.

The Markets Like Sh*T Show, Split Governments And Inertia, Says Anthony Scaramucci – 'This Is Still A Fed Driven Market'

The Saver&#8217;s Match, created by the SECURE 2.0 Act of 2022, is poised to transform retirement savings for low-income workers, and could bring a whole new audience <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/39874181/irs-finalizes-10-year-rule-for-retirement-withdrawals-making-things-even-more-insanely-complicat">to financial advisors. </a>Set to launch in 2027, this program will convert the existing Saver&#8217;s Credit into a federal government match, offering up to $1,000 at a rate of 50 cents per dollar contributed.
According to the Employee Benefit Research Institute, at least 21.9 million workers will qualify for the Saver&#8217;s Match. However, industry experts are scrambling to ensure its effective implementation by the 2027 deadline.
Kim Olson from the Pew Charitable Trusts is leading efforts to assist the Treasury and IRS in launching the program, according to <a href="https://www.planadviser.com/scramble-make-savers-match-work/">planadviser</a>. Key focus areas include simplicity, efficiency, and awareness. Pew has convened working groups to address program publicity, eligibility identification, and fund distribution coordination.

Emerson Sprick of the Bipartisan Policy Center highlights the Saver&#8217;s Match as a significant improvement over the current Saver&#8217;s Credit, which faces issues such as low federal income tax liability among its target group and lack of awareness.
One major challenge is the &#8220;plumbing&#8221; with recordkeepers. Spencer Williams of the Retirement Clearinghouse suggests that the existing Portability Services Network could be adapted to support the Saver&#8217;s Match, providing a system for participant identification, account matching, and fund transfers.
Implementation hurdles include coordinating with state retirement programs, many of which use post-tax Roth accounts that currently can&#8217;t receive government funds. Solutions may involve creating separate pre-tax accounts for eligible participants.
Experts stress the importance of a robust public awareness campaign to ensure eligible workers know about and utilize the program. They hope the IRS will prominently feature the Saver&#8217;s Match during tax filing season.
Despite the challenges, the Saver&#8217;s Match represents a significant investment in low-to-moderate income workers&#8217; retirement savings. Its successful implementation could potentially reduce future reliance on other social assistance programs, making it a crucial development for both beneficiaries and the U.S. retirement system as a whole &#8211; and could create a new clientele for financial advisors.

Government To Match Retirement Savings For Millions Of Workers, Opening New Opportunities For Financial Advisors

The German government kept the cryptocurrency market on tenterhooks with its sale of state-owned Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) in recent weeks. The process culminated earlier this month, with nearly 50,000 BTC, worth $2.89 billion, dumped in the open market.
One of the most vocal critics of the entire exercise has been Joana Cotar, a member of the German Bundestag. In an interview with Benzinga, she explained the grounds for her disapproval and why this was a "monumental missed opportunity."&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">&#8220;A Concerning Signal About Germany&#8217;s Readiness For 21st-Century Digital Economy&#8221;</h2>
The German lawmaker warned that selling the Bitcoin could cost the country billions in future value, which might have been realized by holding it as a long-term strategic asset. "This action sends a concerning signal about Germany&#8217;s readiness to adapt to the realities of the 21st-century digital economy," she argued.
The Eastern German state of Saxony carried out the liquidation. In a blog post, authorities <a href="https://www.medienservice.sachsen.de/medien/news/1077662">cited </a>a legal obligation to liquidate the seized assets if there is a threat of significant price loss.&nbsp;
Cotar criticized this explanation as "flawed" arguing it demonstrates a critical misunderstanding of Bitcoin&#8217;s nature. She proposed changing the law to allow government institutions to hold Bitcoin for extended periods, supported by secure storage guidelines and periodic review mechanisms
Like other maximalists in the space, the German politician expressed optimism about Bitcoin's inflation hedge potential due to its fixed supply. Additionally, she praised its decentralized nature, which could provide immunity against geopolitical risks and manipulation by big players.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is There Merit In Adopting Bitcoin As A Legal Tender In Germany?</h2>
When Benzinga questioned her about the possibility of Bitcoin becoming a legal tender in a large economy like Germany, the lawmaker said the idea was &#8220;worth exploring.&#8221;&nbsp;
"Germany could consider creating a regulatory sandbox for Bitcoin businesses, similar to Switzerland&#8217;s &#8220;Crypto Valley&#8221; in Zug, to foster innovation while managing risks," Cotar suggested.&nbsp;

Other incremental steps advocated by her were offering tax incentives for clean energy-powered Bitcoin mining and integrating Bitcoin education into financial literacy programs.&nbsp;
"The mid to long-term goal should be to fully integrate Bitcoin into our economy and government operations."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Praise For Pro-Bitcoin President Nayib Bukele</h2>
The Bundestag member also had words of praise for Nayib Bukele's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/05/38781429/el-salvador-is-making-it-easy-for-everyone-to-know-how-much-bitcoin-the-country-holds-laun">pro-Bitcoin measures for El Salvador</a>. She praised initiatives such as Bitcoin bonds and the proposed Bitcoin City and stated that Germany may benefit from some of these laws, suited to its economic circumstances.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">&#8220;IMF&#8217;s Opposition To Cryptocurrencies Is Short-Sighted&#8221;</h2>
But even as voices around the world build support for cryptocurrencies, major financial institutions like the International Monetary Fund continue to push against their widespread adoption. The IMF has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/02/31036666/imf-calls-for-coordinated-action-to-address-risks-posed-by-crypto-assets">warned</a> that adopting cryptocurrencies could undermine the effectiveness of monetary policy, circumvent capital flows, and lead to money laundering.
Cotar dismissed this opposition as "short-sighted." She said that the IMF has failed to understand the real potential of these technologies in addressing issues that it itself wants to solve, such as financial inclusion. She criticized the IMF's support for Central Bank Digital Currencies, seen as a major rival to cryptocurrency technology at this moment.
The pro-cryptocurrency legislator added that the first country from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development group to embrace Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset will likely gain a significant first-mover advantage.
"The country could experience an influx of tech talent and innovation, potentially becoming a hub for Bitcoin startups," she opined. "I believe holding Bitcoin as a strategic reserve could provide leverage by reducing dependence on the U.S. dollar."
Joana Cotar was a member of the far-right party, Alternative für Deutschland (Alternative for Germany), until 2022. She is currently an&nbsp;independent&nbsp;member of the Bundestag.
The office of the Saxon State Chancellery&nbsp;is yet to respond to Benzinga&#8217;s request for comment on the matter.
These insights set the stage for deeper discussions at the upcoming Benzinga <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/events/digital-assets/agenda/">Future of Digital Assets</a> event on Nov. 19.

Kamala Harris has come a long way in her career, rising from being a local prosecutor in California to the United States vice president, and she is now a likely presidential candidate. Along this journey, her financial worth has grown significantly. So, how much is Kamala Harris worth today?

</ul>
Kamala Harris began her legal career in the Alameda County District Attorney's office in 1990. In 1998, she joined the San Francisco district attorney's office, and in 2004, she became the San Francisco District Attorney. According to Forbes, she made $140,000 a year in that role, which increased to over $200,000 by 2010.
In 2010, Harris became the Attorney General of California. This job came with a pay cut to $159,000, which she earned for the next three years. Despite the lower salary, the role gave her more visibility and influence.
Her tenure in local and state offices has resulted in two pensions, which Forbes estimates worth just under $1 million today.

According to local real estate agent Jerry Beverly, in 2012, after their mother passed away, Kamala Harris and her sister sold her Oakland condo for $710,000.&nbsp;
Two years later, Harris married Doug Emhoff, a managing partner at Venable LLP who made over $1 million yearly and had a well-funded IRA with many investments in individual stocks. Emhoff&#8217;s clients included big names like Walmart and Abbott Labs. As a result, Harris&#8217;s income increased significantly.&nbsp;
Her career continued to climb when she became a U.S. Senator in 2017, earning $174,000 a year. In 2018, she received an advance of more than $300,000 for her memoir, The Truths We Hold. According to tax reports ABC News accessed, she and Emhoff reported a joint income of nearly $1.9 million that year.
In 2020, Harris ran for president but eventually became Joe Biden's running mate. When they won, she became vice president, earning $235,000 a year. Meanwhile, Emhoff left his high-paying law job to teach at Georgetown University, making around $200,000 annually, according to the Independent.

In summary, Forbes estimates that Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff have a net worth of about $8 million, roughly 22 times the median net worth of Americans in their age bracket. If she wins the presidency, her financial worth and public profile will continue to grow.
But even if she loses the presidential race, it might benefit her financially. Per Forbes, Mike Pence quadrupled his net worth from $1 million to $4 million by giving speeches and writing a memoir after leaving office in 2021 and running for president in 2023.&nbsp;
Joe Biden and his wife Jill earned over $17 million from memoirs and teaching after not running in 2016, increasing their net worth from $2.5 million to $8 million. Harris could follow these proven methods to boost her finances, even after a 2024 loss.

&ldquo;These findings from our Phase 1 study of sabirnetug highlight not only the strength of the study design with participants having early symptomatic AD but also continue to support the potential for sabirnetug as a best-in-class treatment,&quot; said Eric Siemers, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Acumen. &ldquo;Our research reflects our focus on incorporating the patient voice into drug development, provides further support for the mechanism of action of sabirnetug, and includes developing powerful tools for drug development with an assay that can measure even small amounts of sabirnetug bound to toxic soluble amyloid beta oligomers in patients in our clinical trials. These insights can help us as we advance clinical studies of sabirnetug, including our ongoing Phase 2 study. As recently approved therapies for Alzheimer&rsquo;s gain traction, we have an opportunity to advance a next-generation treatment that has the potential to optimize the benefit-risk ratio compared to first-generation disease-modifying treatments for AD.&rdquo;

From Trump Vs. Harris Poll To Kim Jong Un Dismissing Ex-President's Friendship Claims And More: This Week In Politics

This week has been a rollercoaster ride for the financial world. From warnings of a potential market crash to a surge in small-cap stocks, the market has seen it all.
The U.S. economy showed impressive strength, while predictions of soaring Bitcoin, gold, and silver prices added to the intrigue. Amidst all this, allegations of Treasury securities manipulation were strongly refuted.
Market Alarms And Federal Reserve Warnings
Economist&nbsp;Peter Schiff&nbsp;raised concerns about a potential market crash, highlighting the current market sell-off, the rise of safe-haven currencies, and the fall of commodity currencies. He warned that the &#8220;Markets are sounding an alarm,&#8221; suggesting that the Federal Reserve should cut rates before a recession hits.

Small Cap Stocks See Major Investments
Investors have shown increasing bullishness on small-cap stocks, pouring over $6 billion into the Russell 2000 ETF this month. This is driven by optimistic projections for the interest-rate-sensitive segment of the market to thrive as the Federal Reserve rate-cut cycle approaches.

Bitcoin, Gold, And Silver Predictions
Robert Kiyosaki, the author of &#8220;Rich Dad Poor Dad,&#8221; predicted a significant surge in the prices of Bitcoin, gold, and silver if former President Donald Trump wins the 2024 election. He suggested that a Trump presidency would lead to a weaker dollar, boosting exports and job creation, and consequently driving up the prices of these assets.

Peter Schiff Warns Of Potential Market Crash, Small Cap Stocks See Major Investments And More: This Week In Economics

The past week was a whirlwind for Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), with news ranging from product discontinuation to market share shifts, AI regulation support, and a public spat with a tech giant.

Apple To Discontinue iPhone 17 Plus for Ultraslim Version
According to a report by Ming-Chi Kuo, a renowned analyst at TF Securities, Apple plans to phase out the iPhone 17 Plus model, which currently accounts for only 5-10% of total new iPhone shipments. In its place, the company intends to introduce an ultra-slim variant in the second half of 2025.
