On March 11, Nothing will begin shipping its new Phone (3a) series, offering premium features under $500—but with a few trade-offs that budget buyers should consider.
What Happened: London-based tech startup Nothing announced the Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro, priced at $379 and $459 respectively last week.
The Phone (3a) went on sale March 4 and ships starting March 11, while the (3a) Pro will be available for purchase March 11 and begins shipping March 25.
Both phones run on the Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 processor, with 12 GB of RAM, 256 GB of storage, and 5,000 mAh batteries.

The 6.77-inch AMOLED displays offer up to 3,000 nits peak brightness and adaptive refresh rates from 30 to 120 Hz.
Camera hardware includes a 50-MP main sensor, 8-MP ultrawide, and a telephoto lens—2X optical zoom on the 3a, and 3X on the Pro. The Pro also upgrades the selfie camera to 50 MP.
A standout feature is the new AI-powered Essential Key, which captures screenshots or voice notes and uses the Essential Space app to extract relevant information and tasks.
However, the phones lack wireless charging and IP68 water resistance. With only IP64 certification, they can withstand rain but not submersion.

Why It's Important: The launch of the Phone (3a) series comes as Nothing <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-16/phone-startup-nothing-raises-funding-crosses-1-billion-in-lifetime-sales">reportedly</a> seeks to raise at least $100 million in Series C funding to expand operations.
Founded in 2021 by OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei, the company is backed by Google's venture arm and iPod creator Tony Fadell.
Nothing doubled its revenue to over $500 million in 2024 and surpassed $1 billion in lifetime sales, with 7 million units sold across all product categories.
While its top markets are India, Germany, and the U.K., Nothing plans a larger U.S. expansion in 2026.

A Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) whale accumulated about $7.5 million in unrealized profit by successfully shorting the apex cryptocurrency amid the ongoing market correction.
What Happened:&nbsp;According to an X post by on-chain tracking platform Lookonchain Sunday, the trader shorted Bitcoin at approximately $96,500 on Feb. 22 and closed the position near&nbsp;the bottom at around $78,900 six days later.
The whale&nbsp;re-entered a short position at&nbsp;the peak of approximately $94,424 following the rally induced by President Donald Trump&#8217;s executive order establishing a <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44183572/trump-establishes-strategic-bitcoin-reserve-funded-by-forfeited-assets-i-made-the-promise">Strategic Bitcoin Reserve</a>. 
As of this writing, they have set additional short&nbsp;positions at $92,449-$92,636&nbsp;and placed limit orders to&nbsp;take profit between $70,475-$74,192.

Successful Bitcoin Short Trader Places Take Profit Levels Between $70,000-$74,000: Further Drop Incoming?

The unpredictable policies of President Donald Trump, especially concerning tariffs and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, have stirred a sense of uncertainty among households, businesses, and Wall Street. However, this has also paved the way for new investment opportunities, as per analysts.
What Happened: The erratic trade tactics of the Trump administration have recently led to U.S. stocks facing their toughest week of the year. Despite this, Mike Cudzil, a portfolio manager at Pimco, sees this uncertain backdrop as a breeding ground for investment opportunities, reported <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/trumps-chaotic-policy-approach-is-creating-opportunity-for-investors-c7a0418d">MarketWatch</a>. He highlighted a significant shift out of Europe, particularly Germany, in anticipation of a massive fiscal package expected from Europe next week.
"What you are seeing is a repricing of risky assets in the U.S. relative to risky assets [abroad]," the portfolio manager told the publication. 
It's potentially "quite a shift in the world order" compared to the past 80 years, Cudzil added.
Friedrich Merz, likely to be Germany&#8217;s next chancellor, has pledged a massive increase in defense spending and proposed a €500 billion ($524 billion) investment in infrastructure. Cudzil attributes this potential shift to the &#8220;chaotic&#8221; U.S. policies that have prompted Europe to reconsider its defense spending. Even Goldman Sachs, researchers predict a substantial rise in defense expenditures by EU member states through 2027.
Meanwhile, the Chief Investment Officer&nbsp;at Spectrum Wealth Management, Leslie Thompson, also sees potential for profit in overseas investments. She also stated that her team has started moving some profit&nbsp;into exchange-traded funds focused on&nbsp;stocks in developed foreign markets.
SEE ALSO: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44213871/canadas-next-pm-mark-carney-vows-to-win-trade-war-with-trump-says-americans-should-make-no-mistake">Canada&#8217;s Next PM Mark Carney Vows To Win Trade War With Trump: &#8216;Americans Should Make No Mistake&#8217;</a>
Why It Matters: The economic landscape has been marked by uncertainty due to the unpredictable nature of Trump&#8217;s policies. This has led to a shift in investment strategies, with a focus on overseas markets, particularly Europe. 
Investors have recently&nbsp;poured $12 billion into European&nbsp;stocks, marking&nbsp;their strongest inflows in a&nbsp;decade. This indicates how European government stimulus could strengthen the Eurozone while the Trump administration reworks its trade agreements and aims to significantly reduce the federal government.
As noted by economist Mohamed El-Erian in a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44213521/us-economic-slowdown-talk-of-the-town-says-economist-mohamed-el-erian-as-fed-chair-powell-reaffirms-growth-at-solid-pace">podcast with Forward Guidance</a>, the risk of an economic slowdown is a significant concern. However, the current economic climate also presents opportunities for savvy investors who are willing to venture into foreign markets.
The S&amp;P 500 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) dropped 3.32% over the last five days to close at 5,770.20 on Friday, while the STOXX Europe 600 climbed 8.46% to reach 551.00.

ServiceNow Q4 Earnings: Revenue Miss, EPS In Line, Still In 'Early Days' Of 'Massive' AI Opportunity (CORRECTED)

China's Manus AI is being hyped as the next big leap in agentic AI—maybe even a "DeepSeek moment"—but early testers say the platform might be more sizzle than substance.
What Happened: Developed by Chinese startup Monica, the daughter company of The Butterfly Effect, Manus is billed as an "autonomous agent" capable of handling complex tasks like booking flights, ordering food, and even programming video games.
Its invite-only beta sparked massive buzz, with over 130,000 users joining its Discord server and invite codes reportedly selling for thousands of dollars on Chinese reselling app Xianyu, <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/03/09/manus-probably-isnt-chinas-second-deepseek-moment/">reported</a> TechCrunch.
Some influencers and tech executives praised Manus as revolutionary. Hugging Face's head of product called it "the most impressive AI tool I've ever tried," while AI researcher Dean Ball dubbed it "the most sophisticated computer using AI."

Manus' website makes lofty claims—like buying real estate or building apps autonomously—but some of the platform's core functions reportedly rely on fine-tuned versions of existing models like Anthropic's Claude and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.'s (NYSE BABA) Qwen.

Why It's Important: &nbsp;The rise of Manus comes at a time when the AI landscape in China is rapidly evolving. DeepSeek, another Chinese AI firm, has been under <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44201104/usa-targets-deepseek-weighs-restrictions-on-chinas-ai-firm-that-shook-nvidias-market-value-by-600-billion">scrutiny by the U.S. government</a>, which is considering restrictions on its operations.
DeepSeek&#8217;s AI models have been made open-source, allowing them to be freely downloaded and copied.
In January 2025, DeepSeek&#8217;s assertion that its AI model was developed at a fraction of the cost compared to its U.S. competitors resulted in Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) losing $600 billion in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43256425/nvidia-says-deepseek-an-illustration-of-how-new-ai-models-can-be-created-while-being-export-control-compliant-amid-600-billion-market-value-plunge">market value in just one day</a>.
Moreover, a study by Copyleaks revealed that <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44103985/74-of-deepseeks-output-mimics-openais-chatgpt-new-study-reveals-it-does-raise-questions-about-its-development">74% of DeepSeek&#8217;s output</a> mimics OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT, raising questions about its development process.

Move Over DeepSeek? Not So Fast: China's Manus AI Goes Viral, But Early Users Say It Crashes, Loops, And Fumbles The Basics

Only Meta Platforms Inc. has outperformed the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq 100 indices in 2025 because it is &#8220;less leveraged,&#8221; as compared to the other &#8216;Magnificent 7&#8217; stocks, explains an analyst.
While Meta, led by Mark Zuckerberg, continues to be an investor favorite, it is also undervalued as compared to its peers.
What Happened: The high interest rate environment in 2025 has kept the technology mega caps under pressure, according to John Murillo, the chief dealing officer at B2BROKER.
&#8220;Many tech companies, especially those with high leverage, are particularly susceptible to changes in interest rates,&#8221; said Murillo, adding that the Federal Reserve's current stance has been impacting these companies' profitability and valuations.
He also highlights that the current U.S. administration's tariff policies, particularly targeting China, have created uncertainties in global trade, risking increasing costs for tech companies and affecting their earnings.
Thus, investors have grown increasingly skeptical about the high-tech index&#8217;s performance in 2025 due to a weaker guidance amid high interest rates and an inflationary push from Donald Trump's tariff policy, according to Murillo.
&#8220;Currently investors favor less leveraged tech stocks like Meta, bearing in mind that loan paybacks can significantly eat into their net profits,&#8221; he said.

Why It Matters: Meta is up 4.41% on a year-to-date basis, whereas the exchange-traded fund tracking S&amp;P 500 index, SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) was down 1.49%. Also, Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), tracking the Nasdaq 100 declined 3.61% in the same period.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data, Meta&#8217;s long term debt stood at $28.826 billion but it has a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.269, implying its strength to service its debts.

Mark Zuckerberg's Meta Platforms A Lucrative Bet As 'Investors Favor Less Leveraged Tech Stocks,' Says Expert Amid Mag7's 2025 Underperformance

China has announced retaliatory tariffs on certain Canadian agricultural products in response to Canada&#8217;s import duties on Chinese electric vehicles, steel, and aluminum products.
What Happened: China announced on Saturday that it would implement a 100% tariff on Canadian rapeseed oil, oil cakes, and peas. Additionally, a 25% tariff will be applied to aquatic products and pork from Canada. According to a statement from China's Customs Tariff Commission of the State Council, these tariffs are set to take effect on March 20.
The announcement comes amid a swiftly intensifying global trade war, marked by multiple tariff declarations from the U.S., China, Canada, and Mexico in recent months. Canada had previously implemented a 100% import tariff on Chinese-made EVs starting Oct 1. 2024, mirroring similar measures taken by the U.S. and the EU amid concerns about unfair competition. Ottawa also imposed a 25% tariff on imported steel and aluminum products from China, effective October 15. 
As a response, in September, China initiated an anti-dumping investigation into Canadian canola or rapeseed imports, which account for over half of Canada&#8217;s total canola exports. Notably, in the list released on Saturday, China did not include tariffs on rapeseed imports, but only rapeseed oil and meal.
In an official statement, China&#8217;s customs authorities have criticized Canada&#8217;s unilateral imposition of tariffs, stating it &#8220;disregards objective facts and World&nbsp;Trade Organization rules, is a&nbsp;typical trade protectionist practice, constitutes&nbsp;a discriminatory measure against China,&nbsp;seriously infringes on China's legitimate&nbsp;rights and interests, and undermines&nbsp;China-Canada economic and trade relations.&#8221;

This escalating trade war is likely to have significant implications for global economic and trade relations.
Dan Wang, China director at Eurasia Group in Singapore told Reuters, &#8220;By striking now, China reminds Canada of the cost of aligning too closely with American trade policy.&#8221;
On Monday, the rapeseed meal futures on the Zhengzhou Exchange surged 6% to 2,611 yuan ($360) per metric ton, marking the largest single-day increase since September 2022.
Meanwhile, rapeseed oil futures rose 5.2% to 9,213 yuan ($1,270) per ton.

China Hits Canada With Retaliatory Tariffs On Agriculture Goods Amid Intensifying Global Trade War

Mark Carney has won the Liberal Party leadership race to succeed Justin Trudeau as Canada&#8217;s prime minister, vowing to stand firm against U.S. President Donald Trump&#8217;s trade threats as tensions escalate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42806662/justin-trudeau-set-to-resign-as-prime-minister-of-canada-report">between the neighboring countries</a>.
What Happened: Carney, 59, the former governor of both the Bank of Canada and Bank of England, secured 85.9% of the vote in a landslide victory over rivals including former Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c36wkg47z1po">reported</a> BBC. The political newcomer has never held elected office but brings significant financial and crisis <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44102599/canadian-pm-justin-trudeau-retaliates-with-25-tariffs-on-us-goods-amid-escalating-trade-war">management experience to the role</a>.
&#8220;Americans should make no mistake,&#8221; Carney said in his victory speech. &#8220;In trade, as in hockey, Canada will win.&#8221; He promised to maintain retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports &#8220;until the Americans show us respect.&#8221;
The leadership transition comes amid escalating trade tensions after Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44102599/canadian-pm-justin-trudeau-retaliates-with-25-tariffs-on-us-goods-amid-escalating-trade-war">imposed 25% tariffs on Canadian goods</a> last week, though some products were later exempted. Canada responded with reciprocal tariffs on C$155 billion ($109 billion) worth of U.S. imports.
&#8220;I know these are dark days,&#8221; Carney told supporters. &#8220;Dark days brought on by a country we can no longer trust.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Carney&#8217;s economic platform includes pushing forward major energy projects like pipelines, investing in housing and clean energy, liberalizing inter-provincial trade, and diversifying <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44212152/mark-carney-takes-justin-trudeaus-job-as-canadas-new-pm-ready-to-face-trumps-tariff-threats-i-know-how-to-manage-crises">Canada&#8217;s economy beyond U.S. dependence</a>. He also pledged to cap federal government size, which expanded by 40% under Trudeau.
Carney, who will lead a minority government, faces significant challenges beyond trade disputes, including Canada&#8217;s housing crisis and rising cost of living that contributed to Trudeau&#8217;s declining popularity.
The Harvard-educated former Goldman Sachs banker&#8217;s appointment marks a historic shift in Canadian politics as he becomes the first prime minister without prior <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42806662/justin-trudeau-set-to-resign-as-prime-minister-of-canada-report">legislative or cabinet experience</a>.
