Do Kwon, co-founder of Terraform Labs, the incubator of TerraUSD (CRYPTO: USTC) and Luna (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">LUNC</a>), is set to face criminal fraud charges in a U.S. court following his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42709119/terra-luna-co-founder-do-kwon-to-be-extradited-to-the-us-report">extradition from Montenegro</a>.
What Happened: Kwon is expected to appear before U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert Lehrburger in a Manhattan federal court on Thursday afternoon, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/news/world/united-states-canada/article/3293212/former-cryptocurrency-executive-do-kwon-appear-us-court-criminal-fraud-charges?module=perpetual_scroll_0&amp;pgtype=article">according</a> to the South China Morning Post.
Kwon has been charged with multiple counts of commodities fraud, conspiracy, securities fraud and wire fraud related to the collapse Luna and TerraUSD in 2022, which resulted in an estimated $40 billion loss.
Why It Matters: The extradition marks the end of a prolonged legal battle involving competing requests from the U.S. and South Korea. 
Montenegro Minister of Justice Bojan Božović ultimately authorized Kwon&#8217;s transfer to the U.S., citing factors such as the gravity of the alleged offenses and the sequence of extradition requests.
Kwon agreed to pay an $80 million civil fine in June 2024, having been banned from cryptocurrency transactions as part of a $4.55 billion settlement with the SEC. 
He has denied any wrongdoing related to the charges.
The case has drawn significant attention in the crypto world, with the TerraUSD token experiencing a 4% surge following news of Kwon&#8217;s extradition.
Kwon&#8217;s legal troubles follow other high-profile, such as Sam Bankman-Fried&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41141962/remember-sbfs-i-didnt-stash-billions-away-the-latest-ftx-repayment-update-may-have-other-ideas">conviction and sentencing</a>, and Alex Mashinsky&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42307121/celsius-network-founder-alex-mashinsky-pleads-guity-to-two-counts-of-fraud-including-manipulating-in-house-cryptos-price">guilty plea</a> related to the Celsius Network collapse.

Market Whales and Their Recent Bets on BROS Options

Goldman Sachs analyst Tina Hou maintained a Buy rating on Li Auto Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LI#NASDAQ">LI</a>) with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LI/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $36</a>.
Li Auto is a leading pure New Energy Vehicle (NEV) player, with a 5% NEV market share in China as of the first quarter of 2024 (17% and 39% market share in China's premium PV and premium NEV market, respectively).
As Hou noted, the company will have the most potent model pipeline of 5 new launches and the most vigorous sales network expansion of 400 stores in 2024.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/42767647/chinese-stocks-drop-as-manufacturing-growth-slows-and-geopolitical-tensions-hit" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chinese Stocks Drop As Manufacturing Growth Slows And Geopolitical Tensions Hit</a>
The analyst expects the competitive positioning of Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) models and deepening sales network to drive another leg of growth for Li Auto.
With continued scale economics and operating leverage, Hou expects Li Auto to deliver the fastest earnings growth and generate top-tier free cash flow among her China auto OEM coverage.
Over the past six months, Hou noted signs that Li Auto has not only caught up with industry leaders in terms of urban NOA (navigate on autopilot) performance but has also become one of the best in the market. The improvement has resulted in a higher take-rate of its Max version models and an improved vehicle gross margin.
Looking into 2025, the company expects to achieve L3 autonomous driving capability utilizing its current "End-to-End + VLM" architecture and MPI (mile per intervention) of 1 takeover per 500km.
With Li Auto's strengthening focus on AI and visible improvements in its urban NOA performance, Hou noted the company is well positioned to benefit from the ongoing intelligent driving trend, supporting volume growth with a better Max version blend, margin improvement, and ongoing BOM cost reduction.
Hou projected fiscal 2024 revenue of 144.13 billion Chinese yuan and EPS of 3.30 Chinese yuan.
Price Action: LI stock is up 1.04% at $24.24 at last check Thursday.

Goldman Sachs Sees Strong Upside In Li Auto on New Model Pipeline and Autonomous Driving Advances

Despite ongoing legal challenges, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tiktok" rel="noreferrer noopener">TikTok</a> content creators refuse to prepare for a potential U.S. ban on the app that helped them garner millions of followers in four years, the Wall Street Journal <a target="_blank" href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/a-tiktok-ban-looms-creators-say-theyll-believe-it-when-they-see-it-6727dd67" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
The ban, which will take effect on January 19, stems from a law requiring TikTok to be sold to a non-Chinese owner.
TikTok and its parent company, ByteDance lawyers, have appealed to the Supreme Court to halt the ban pending their appeal&nbsp;to a lower-court ruling.

A lot seems to be brewing in the social media landscape as President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take charge in January. Trump has fueled hope among TikTok supporters by urging the Supreme Court to delay the law&#8217;s implementation.
TikTok has become a critical platform for creators and advertisers, accounting for ~4% of the U.S. digital ad market, the WSJ cites eMarketer.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;TikTok, boasting 170 million U.S. users, estimated that creators could lose $300 million in monthly earnings upon a ban.
In 2020, then-President Donald Trump called the app&nbsp;a &#8220;national security&#8221; risk <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/20/09/17671544/judge-blocks-trump-order-on-tiktok-just-hours-before-ban-goes-into-effect" rel="noreferrer noopener">since&nbsp;it is owned by</a> a Beijing-based parent company.&nbsp;ByteDance Ltd., which launched TikTok in 2018 after acquiring&nbsp;Shanghai-based video app Musical.ly for&nbsp;$1 billion,&nbsp;could gather data on Americans on behalf of Chinese authorities, he had said.
However, a federal judge has halted the Trump Administration&#8217;s ban on TikTok. Then, Trump forced a sale of TikTok to U.S. companies, with Bytedance still holding a majority stake.
Meanwhile, advertisers have contingency plans to redirect ad spending to platforms such as Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) Instagram and Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) YouTube upon a TikTok ban.
Reportedly, ByteDance <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/24/12/42725613/tiktok-parent-plans-7-billion-ai-push-with-nvidia-chips" rel="noreferrer noopener">plans to spend</a> $7 billion on Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips outside China to accomplish its artificial intelligence ambitions, signifying growing ties between Chinese and U.S. companies despite the U.S. semiconductor embargo on China.
Recently, Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) also tapped TikTok targeting $1 billion in sales boost through <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40294494/amazon-teams-up-with-tiktok-pinterest-for-shoppable-ads-analyst-sees-1b-payoff" rel="noreferrer noopener">in-app shopping ads</a>.

We know that, in most cases, insider buying is far more informative than insider selling. Most insider selling reveals very little real information, as there are dozens of reasons for insiders to be cashing in stocks, most of which have little to do with business prospects.
The exception to this rule is when we see clusters of insiders or large sales by top executives at or near 52-week lows. This always needs to be investigated, as the odds of several executives having a personal cash need when the stock is in a downtrend are pretty slim.
We know that insiders buy stocks for only one reason: they believe the stock price will go higher based on what they know about the business.
They are not as concerned with profits measured in percentages as they are with profits measured in multiples of the stock price.
Most of the time, insiders are contrarian and value-oriented when buying shares. Clusters of large insider buys often indicate a stock is getting near the lows and is ripe for a turnaround.
When we see insiders go against that habit and buy near 52-week highs, it is very informative and indicates that nonpublic knowledge will lead to higher prices sooner rather than later.
The top executives earn higher excess returns on their purchases than directors and low-level executives. Most of the time, the CEO and CFO have the highest returns.
&nbsp;That makes sense since they see more of the big picture than anyone else. Most of the time, they are the ones painting the picture.
The CFO tends to earn higher returns than the CEO. That also makes sense since they understand both the picture and vision and what that means for the financial statements.
These are not opinions.
These are facts and conclusions drawn from academic studies and real-world results.
We will look for opportunities created by all these rules as we go through 2025.
Since today is the first trading day of 2025, I thought we would take a look at some stocks where the CEO or CFO was making large purchases of stocks that Wall Street hates. Big money buying in the open market often indicates that hatred is misplaced.
Take Tidewater (Ticker: TDW), for example. Tidewater owns and operates a substantial fleet of offshore vessels, providing logistical support, crew transportation, and equipment delivery to offshore rigs, platforms, and facilities. They own the boats that take people, tools, and supplies to offshore drilling rigs worldwide.
It has not been a great business for several years now. Oil and gas prices have been in a range for some time now. Prices supported onshore activity, but offshore activity has been moribund. Politics and misguided energy policies have played a role in creating weakness in the industry as well.
Shares of Tidewater hit a high of $110 back in mid-year and have plunged by more than 50% since. There have been signs that offshore demand is picking up, and key executives at Tidewater apparently think the worst is over.
CEO Quintin Kneen spent almost $2 million on shares last month. Well-known value investor Robert Robotti is a large shareholder and director and has also been buying. Robotti purchased another million shares of stock last month.
Any increased offshore oil and gas activity will send this stock skyrocketing toward its 52-week highs. Any news that causes a spike in oil and gas demand or pricing could easily make Tidewater one of the top-performing stocks of 2025.
Shares of Dave &amp; Buster&#8217;s Entertainment (Ticker: PLAY) have not been very entertaining lately. The company has been losing far more than analysts expected, and after the last quarter&#8217;s report, the CEO resigned. Wall Street hates the stock, and traders have been dumping it. Dave &amp; Buster&#8217;s shares are now down almost 60% from the 52-week highs.
Chairman of the board Kevin Sheehan has stepped in as interim CEO. Upon taking the role, Mr. Sheehan must have liked what he saw amidst the carnage as he broke out his checkbook and purchased another $1.4 million worth of stock. Two other directors also made six-figure open-market purchases of the stock.
The board of directors feels pretty good about the future, as it authorized a new $100 million stock buyback to take advantage of the bargain pricing. Almost 20% of the float is sold short, so any good news could squeeze the shares.
Insiders are not always right about their purchases, but they are right more often than not, and the rewards can be spectacular.

C-Suite Buy of the Week: Executive Buying Trends Offer Clues for 2025 InvestmentsC-Suite Buy of the Week:

A fourth test of full self-driving from Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) left an analyst cautiously optimistic for the company's future in a continued series of reviews of the company's<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/fsd"> self-driving technology.</a>
 The Tesla Analyst: Truist analyst William Stein maintained a Hold rating on Tesla with a $360 price target.

The Analyst Takeaways: A fourth test of a Tesla Model 3 with FSD v13 for Stein left the analyst feeling comfortable Tesla could solve autonomy in the future.
"We increasingly view TSLA's long-term success as inextricably linked to its ability to transition FSD from supervised to unsupervised tech," Stein said.
The analyst said the test needed no interventions, but "imperfections remain obvious."
Past test drives using FSD revealed weaknesses in the Tesla technology, the analyst said. The fourth test was "more impressive" without the need for any interventions.
While there were no interventions needed, Stein won't recommend FSD use. 
The analyst said the 15-mile round-trip test required no touching of the pedals or steering wheel.
"FSD navigated around a double-parked car, and changed lanes on the highway logically. Driving was mostly smooth and human-like."
The negatives of the trip were one moving violation and "some strange behavior" with FSD failing to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk one of the named issues.
"We viewed this behavior as not inspiring a confidence of safety, but not worse than many less experiences or aggressive drivers."
Stein also said the Tesla vehicle followed drivers "rather closely," which could pose a safety threat. The vehicle also lingered to the edge of its lane, coming closer to barrier walls than many drivers would prefer.
"The imperfections increasingly seem to be related to sensors, not AI, which is a problem for TSLA."
Stein said AI problems could be overcome quickly. Potential sensor issues could be more problematic, the analyst said.
No interventions needed in the 15-mile loop is called "impressive" by Stein. The analyst said Tesla "may eventually ‘solve' autonomy."
"It's just not ready for prime time (let alone a robotaxi service) yet."
TSLA Price Action: Tesla stock is down 6.66% to $376.78 on Thursday versus a 52-week trading range of $138.80 to $488.54.

Baidu's Options: A Look at What the Big Money is Thinking

Cloudflare Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NET#NYSE">NET</a>) stock is trading upwards Thursday after Goldman Sachs analyst Gabriela Borges upgraded the stock from Sell to Buy and raised its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NET/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from $77 to $140</a>.
Security stock performance in 2024 can almost entirely be explained by the extent to which the market believed each company was a platform rather than a point product, as per the analyst.
Borges flagged two catalysts for Cloudflare stock in 2025, including an improving sales and marketing productivity cycle after two years of evolution to better address platform sales in the enterprise and traction with Act III products for developer services as Cloudflare applies its core edge network architecture advantages to new AI inferencing use cases.
The price target boost reflects a jump in the multiple from 11x to 20x (Q5-Q8 revenue), raising the analyst&#8217;s 2026 revenue estimates by 2%, given his views on sales productivity and Act III.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42721526/taiwan-semiconductors-kaohsiung-expansion-to-boost-jobs-and-2-nm-chip-production" rel="noreferrer noopener">Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s Kaohsiung Expansion To Boost 2-nm Chip Production</a>
Borges changed his 2024, 2025, and 2026 EPS estimates to $0.75, $0.90, and $1.32 from $0.75, $0.86, and $1.12, driven by slightly more margin expansion, marking the highest target multiple in his coverage.
Borges downgraded Check Point Software Technologies (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHKP#NASDAQ">CHKP</a>) from Buy to Neutral and raised the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CHKP/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from&nbsp;$204&nbsp;to&nbsp;$207</a>.
The analyst highlighted 2025 as a year of incremental investment for Check Point as its new CEO evaluates growth priorities and the company ramps up its new SASE products. Taken together, the analyst noted that EPS growth will be under pressure in 2025, and the stock typically tracks EPS growth. He noted an opportunity to become more positive into 2026, as the path to 10%+ revenue growth and 20%+ EPS growth comes back into focus if Check Point successfully converts incremental investments into incremental revenue growth.
Borges compared Check Point to Software companies with less than 10% revenue growth and enough EPS to be valued using a P/E methodology. Relative to this peer group (median 2025 P/E of 17x), Check Point offers similar revenue growth (6% on Street estimates versus 6% for peers in 2025) but better Rule of 40 (~47 versus 35). 
The analyst also used the S&amp;P 500 as a point of comparison: The S&amp;P 500 is trading at 22x 2025 EPS while offering ~10% EPS growth; relative to the S&amp;P 500, Check Point provides similar cross-cycle earnings growth.
Borges revised 2024, 2025, and 2026 EPS from $9.10, $9.75, and $10.95 to $9.10, $9.45, and $10.65 to reflect an operating expenditure trend consistent with recent history and introduced 2027 EPS of $12.25.

The launch of the U.S. Global Technology and Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WAR#NYSE">WAR</a>) on Dec. 30, 2024, and its subsequent debut on the New York Stock Exchange, is another feather in the cap for U.S. Global Investors Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GROW#NASDAQ">GROW</a>) extensive suite of ETFs targeting specific sectors. The fund aims to bring investors into the areas of advanced technology, defense and aerospace with an expense ratio of 0.6%.
The ETF holds total net assets of $1 million, per the company&#8217;s fact sheet, and rebalances quarterly. Holdings are split, with the following 10 holdings equally representing seven percent each of the fund: Applied Materials (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>), Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAH#NYSE">BAH</a>), General Dynamics Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GD#NYSE">GD</a>), Hexcel Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HXL#NYSE">HXL</a>), Leidos Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LDOS#NYSE">LDOS</a>), and NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). Other notable holdings include Rheinmetall AG, Cohort plc, Cognyte Software and F5, each constituting 4% of the portfolio.
A general breakdown of the ETF holdings looks like this: data centers, homeland protection, aerospace and defense, cybersecurity, and semiconductor. All these sectors are interconnected in today&#8217;s global economy.
Interestingly, <a href="https://www.usglobaletfs.com/app/uploads/2024/12/WAR-Factsheet.pdf">28%</a> of the ETF's technology sector exposure will consist of semiconductor stocks. This is important as the chip industry has been in the spotlight for a while now for its lucrative outlook. According to a recent <a href="https://www.pwc.com/gx/en/industries/technology/state-of-the-semicon-industry.html">PwC report</a>, global semiconductor revenues are anticipated to grow "more than twice as fast as global GDP, reaching over $1 trillion by 2030." Thus, a larger exposure in this area makes sense.
Also, another 28% of the fund's overall holdings will go to Cybersecurity, an area that needs intense R&amp;D and consistent advancements to tackle the growing sophistication of global cybercrimes, including cyberespionage, a major headache for governments.
The stocks included in this actively managed fund will be chosen subject to some quantitative and fundamental parameters. Also, there is a possibility for the fund to invest in foreign companies and emerging markets. The fund prospectus currently states that its exposure to companies in the U.S. is 83%, U.K. is 7%, Germany is 7%, France 3% and Norway 3%.
The ETF issuer has a note of warning to investors in its press release: "The fund's concentration in the securities of a particular industry namely Aerospace and Defense, Cybersecurity and Semi-conductor industries as well as geographic concentration may cause it to be more susceptible to greater fluctuations in share price and volatility due to adverse events that affect the Fund's investments."
Nonetheless, the defense industry presents a significant investment opportunity due to various global factors. 
Russia&#8217;s invasion of Ukraine, tensions with China and heightened military spending especially in Europe due to the almost doubling of arms imports between 2019 and 2023 will require high levels of defense spending. 
Advanced technologies in warfare are transforming war; countries are heavily investing in AI, hypersonic missiles, and autonomous weapons, with the example being China. 
As detailed by U.S. Global ETFs, cyber threats are also rising, with a 75% increase in global cyberattacks and leading to high investments in cyber security infrastructure. Bipartisan U.S. defense spending and increases in NATO military spending add weight to the potential growth of this sector. Another reason for European defense system modernization and the reduction of U.S. reliance on their systems is to grow more independent.

U.S. Global Launches Technology And Aerospace & Defense ETF: Why Its Allocation Makes Sense

In the current market session, Upwork Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPWK#NASDAQ">UPWK</a>) share price is at $16.51, after a 0.98% increase. Moreover, over the past month, the stock decreased by 0.79%, but in the past year, went up by 16.80%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1735841711_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Comparing Upwork P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Upwork has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 80.49 of the Professional Services industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1735841711_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

A Look Into Upwork Inc's Price Over Earnings

As the New Year begins, the U.K.&#8217;s Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is urging the public to avoid purchasing weight-loss medicines without a prescription from unauthorized sources like beauty salons, social media platforms, or unverified websites.
Such practices violate the law and expose individuals to significant health risks.
MHRA Deputy Director of Criminal Enforcement Andy Morling <a target="_blank" href="https://www.gov.uk/government/news/uk-medicines-regulator-warns-against-buying-weight-loss-medicines-without-a-prescription-this-new-year" rel="noreferrer noopener">cautioned</a> against the increasing trend of illegal weight-loss medicine sales, describing them as dangerous &#8220;quick fixes.&#8221;

He emphasized that these medicines, known as GLP-1 receptor agonists, are potent drugs that should only be dispensed by licensed healthcare professionals. Buying them from unregulated sources puts consumers&#8217; health at serious risk and contributes to illegal activity.
Unregulated online products may contain harmful toxins, posing serious health risks that could result in hospitalization.
Eli Lilly And Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) Tirzepatide and Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) semaglutide dominate the GLP-1 class products market.
The agency works to curb the distribution of these unapproved products by identifying and removing illegal sales posts, suspending accounts, and shutting down rogue websites.
Chief Safety Officer Dr. Alison Cave highlighted the importance of consulting healthcare professionals before starting any treatment. Decisions about weight-loss medicines should be based on a comprehensive assessment of benefits and risks, with the patient and healthcare provider working together.
The MHRA continues to monitor the safety of all licensed weight-loss drugs, urging patients to report any suspected side effects through the Yellow Card scheme.
In October, NHS England proposed a phased rollout of tirzepatide.
Under draft guidance from an independent committee at the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, tirzepatide has been recommended for patients living with obesity, with a maximum list price of 122 pounds ($159.6) per month <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/10/41186057/englands-nhs-proposes-phased-rollout-of-eli-lillys-mounjaro-considers-digital-services-to-boost-a" rel="noreferrer noopener">for the highest dose</a>.

Don't Buy Weight-Loss Medication From Unauthorized Sources, UK Health Agency Warns About Risks

NRX Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NRXP#NASDAQ">NRXP</a>) shares are trading higher on Thursday after the company&#8217;s Hope Therapeutics subsidiary announced the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/n42762750/hope-therapeutics-inc-and-nrx-pharmaceuticals-inc-nasdaq-nrxp-announce-kadima-neuropsychiatry-inst">planed acquisition of Kadima Neuropsychiatry Institute.</a>
The acquisition is part of a broader plan by NRX and Hope to establish a network of clinics for treating depression and PTSD, with Kadima set to become the flagship location.
NRX highlights Kadima as a leading interventional psychiatry clinic, known for introducing ketamine therapy for central nervous system disorders at scale. The clinic also offers treatments such as Spravato, transcranial magnetic stimulation and medication management for conditions like suicidal depression, PTSD and anxiety.
The network is set to be called the HOPE network of which Dr. David Feifel will serve as the Chief Medical Innovation Officer.
&#8220;I am thrilled to join the leadership of HOPE at this exciting juncture,&#8221; said Feifel. 
&#8220;In a world where nearly 60 million Americans suffer from a mental illness in any given year, our dream has been to expand the successes and learnings of Kadima to an international stage, where we can continue to innovate and refine treatments that will create a world in which suicidal depression and PTSD are&nbsp;100%&nbsp;treatable conditions, from which patients and their families should expect to return to empowered and productive lives.&#8221;

What's Going On With NRX Pharmaceuticals Stock Thursday?

Equinor shares are trading higher after the company announced it has received $3B in financing for its U.S. Empire Wind 1 project.

Authorities now believe the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42756901/fbi-probes-new-years-day-vehicle-assault-in-new-orleans-as-terrorism">New Orleans truck attack</a> suspect acted alone, contradicting earlier suspicions of the existence of accomplices, the FBI announced in a press conference on Thursday.
What Happened: The New Year's Day tragedy left 14 dead and dozens injured when Shamsud-Din Jabbar drove a pickup truck into a crowd of revelers on Bourbon Street, The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/live/2025/01/02/us/new-orleans-attack-news">reports</a>. It was initially reported the Bourbon Street attack killed 15 people; the Times clarified Thursday that 14 people were killed plus the suspect. 
Officials said two explosive devices found at the French Quarter scene failed to detonate, adding that no definitive link has been established between the attack and the explosion outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas hours later.
In Las Vegas, Matthew Livelsberger, an active duty Army soldier, allegedly drove a rented Tesla Cybertruck loaded with fireworks mortars, gasoline and camping fuel into the valet area of the hotel early on New Year's Day. The vehicle exploded, killing Livelsberger and injuring seven bystanders, ABC News <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/las-vegas-cybertruck-explosion-investigation-leads-police-colorado/story?id=117263085">reports</a>.
Investigators have since uncovered that both Livelsberger and Jabbar served at the same Army base, <a href="https://www.denver7.com/news/local-news/suspects-in-vegas-explosion-new-orleans-attack-served-at-same-army-base-sources-tell-denver7-investigates">according </a>to Denver7, an ABC affiliate.

Why It Matters: The shared military base connection that was reported between Jabbar and Livelsberger has intensified scrutiny of their overlapping histories. Additionally, the use of Turo rentals in these tragedies highlights concerns about background check procedures on car-sharing platforms.
Both suspects rented electric pickup trucks: Livelsberger used a Tesla Cybertruck and Jabbar rented a Ford F-150 Lightning. The latter vehicle's owner, who rents cars for a secondary income, said he identified his truck from news footage and plans to stop using <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/01/42769136/turo-used-for-new-orleans-las-vegas-attacks-we-are-devastated-by-these-horrible-incidents">Turo after the attack.</a>
Authorities in both cities said there are no ongoing threats as investigations continue.

FBI Says Suspect In New Orleans Attack Acted Alone; Vegas Cybertruck Explosion Suspect Identified

Some people take saving money to a whole new level. A recent <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Frugal/comments/1hmfdeq/what_are_some_extreme_acts_of_frugality_that_you/">thread</a> on r/Frugal asked users to share the most &#8220;extreme acts of frugality&#8221; they've witnessed and the responses did not disappoint. From genius hacks to eyebrow-raising habits, here are some of the most memorable ones.
One user shared a story about their grandfather, who would walk to the local grocery store daily to grab a complimentary coffee sample. He'd drink the small Dixie cup-sized serving and then walk home without buying a thing. According to the person, he &#8220;lived a great ultra-<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38628868/warren-buffetts-frugal-lifestyle-hacks-saved-millions-here-are-5-tips-to-follow-suit-in-your-everyda">frugal life</a> as he saw it. We didn't know much about his finances, but he needed very little in life. He left behind over a quarter of a million dollars in his bank, a house he owned and a gently used Toyota in the early 2000s.&#8221;

<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
</ul>
Another person&#8217;s grandmother's clever recycling also made an impression. As socks wore out, she'd darn them and pass them down to younger family members. When the socks became too short, she'd cut off the tops and sew them over worn coat sleeves. As someone noted, &#8220;I imagine this only works with real textiles. The polyester clothes that they sell now would never.&#8221;
A person&#8217;s father had a nightly ritual that involved turning off the Wi-Fi router to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40431920/customers-who-save-on-electric-bills-might-have-to-pay-extra-utility-companies-could-charge-them">save on electricity</a>. While the actual savings were probably pennies, the habit sparked debates about how far people would go to pinch a penny.
Another crafty idea involved fabric strips dipped in a cornstarch-water mixture to seal drafts around windows and doors. Not only is it effective, but it's also an old-school trick that's stood the test of time– &#8220;I did this as a privacy screen on my biggest windows, but I appreciate the small amounts of heat savings they offer, though it was not my primary goal.&#8221;

Some folks took eco-frugality to another level by flushing their toilets with grey water from washing dishes or showers. One person even calculated that while this practice saved them next to nothing, it gave them a sense of satisfaction for using less.
In one of the more polarizing examples, someone's ex insisted on skipping seasonings altogether to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-save-money-fast">save money</a>, claiming the calories-per-dollar ratio wasn't worth it. This led to three months of bland, unseasoned rice and beans until the poster finally stole a salt shaker. "Worth it," they said. For one commenter, this was unhinged because, as they put it, a pound of salt is &#8220;like $1 and lasts forever.&#8221; Is it worth eating bland food every day just to save on that? They finally asked.
One commenter mentioned their sister, who wore her wedding dress from a previous marriage to her second wedding. While it raised eyebrows, others applauded the practicality. After all, it's just a dress.
Trending: Many are using retirement income calculators to check if they&#8217;re on pace —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-do-i-calculate-my-retirement-income-adv"> here&#8217;s a breakdown on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</a>
The thread also included stories about people cutting expiration dates off coupons, reusing disposable cups to claim "free" refills and dumpster diving for receipts to get freebies at fast-food restaurants.
Many users pointed out that extreme frugality often stems from past experiences with poverty or financial insecurity. One commenter reflected on how their grandparents, who lived through the Great Depression, saved everything from aluminum lids to juice concentrate tubes. It was less about saving money and more about the fear of waste and scarcity.
From hilarious to heartwarming, these stories show how far people will go to save a dollar. Whether it's a quirky habit or a creative solution, there's no denying that extreme frugality takes ingenuity – and maybe just a little madness!
