Before Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) became a $2 trillion tech giant, it was just an idea—and Jeff Bezos had something better than venture capital: his mom.
"I won the lottery with my mom. Thanks for literally everything," Bezos declared in a <a href="https://x.com/JeffBezos/status/863867801181855744?lang=en">heartfelt X post</a> on Mother's Day 2017.
Jacklyn Bezos had Jeff <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/QJS-m-LyXMw?si=zVVDU7AUZZwb-INZ">when she was only 17</a>, defying the odds from day one. Pressured to drop out of high school, she stayed the course, graduated, and supported herself and her infant son on just $190 a month working as a secretary.

</ul>
At night, she attended school, showing up with two duffel bags—one packed with textbooks and the other with diapers, bottles, and toys to keep baby Jeff occupied.
After divorcing Jeff's biological father, Ted Jorgensen, she later married Miguel "Mike" Bezos, a Cuban immigrant who fled Castro's Cuba alone at age 16. Mike adopted Jeff and became the dad who raised him.
Jorgensen, a former circus unicyclist and bike shop owner, lost contact with Jeff shortly after the divorce. For decades, he didn't know what became of his son—until 2012, when a journalist tracked him down while researching Bezos' biography. "I wasn't a good father or a good husband," Jorgensen admitted at the time, expressing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42556247/jeff-bezos-biological-dad-didnt-know-he-was-a-billionaire-until-someone-said-your-son-is-one-of-the-most-successful-men-on-the-planet">regret that he never reconnected with Jeff</a> before his death in 2015.

In the early 1990s, Jeff Bezos was working on Wall Street when he became captivated by the rapid growth of internet usage. Recognizing the potential of e-commerce, he decided to leave his stable job and pursue his vision of an online bookstore. In 1994, he and his then-wife, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43916092/mackenzie-scott-gave-away-19-billion-of-her-38-billion-divorce-settlement-from-jeff-bezos-in-5-years-her-current-net-worth-may-shock-you">MacKenzie Scott</a>, drove across the country from New York to Seattle, drafting Amazon's business plan along the way.&nbsp;
That's when Jacklyn and Mike made a bold move. They didn't just give or loan him money. They invested $245,573—a significant piece of their life savings. Bezos later recalled in an <a href="https://achievement.org/achiever/jeffrey-p-bezos/">interview with the Academy of Achievement</a>, "The first initial start-up capital for Amazon.com came primarily from my parents, and they invested a large fraction of their life savings in what became Amazon.com."
Jeff even warned them upfront that there was a 70% chance they'd lose everything. Instead, their early equity stake—roughly 6% of the fledgling company—<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/02/43666298/jeff-bezoss-mom-was-a-divorced-teen-who-couldnt-afford-a-phone-so-used-a-walkie-talkie-to-communicate-now-she-could-be-worth-76-billion">grew into billions</a>. Estimates from Bloomberg in 2018 placed the family's wealth from that <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-07-31/a-hidden-amazon-fortune-bezos-parents-could-be-worth-billions">bet at around $30 billion</a>.

In 2022, Bezos posted <a href="https://x.com/JeffBezos/status/1523330938742005760?lang=en">another tribute on X, writing</a>: "Mom, I have no idea how you did what you did. You kept us both safe inside your heart. Thank you for sharing your strength and for all the sacrifices you made. I love you."

<li>JPMorgan analyst Doug Anmuth highlighted Amazon's Q1 revenue and operating income which exceeded the high end of guidance, with no significant negative impact from macroeconomic or tariff issues.

Understanding Amazon.com's Position In Broadline Retail Industry Compared To Competitors

On Monday, Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) co-founder Bill Gates spoke about the disruption in international climate cooperation in the wake of President Donald Trump's campaign.
What Happened: Speaking at Temasek Holdings' Ecosperity Week conference in Singapore, Gates said these disruptions are unlikely to last long, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-05-05/bill-gates-says-lack-of-climate-cooperation-is-unlikely-to-last">reported</a> Bloomberg.
"There's a lot of commitment to this cause in the United States," Gates said, referring to the clean energy transition. 
Earlier in January, on the inauguration for his second term, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43087966/trump-signs-orders-to-take-us-out-of-paris-climate-agreement-calls-the-deal-one-sided-and-unfair">Trump signed an executive order</a> saying, "I'm immediately withdrawing from the unfair, one-sided Paris Climate Accords." In 2017, Trump withdrew from the global climate pact, which former President Joe Biden later reversed.

"This current trend, where there's a little less cooperation going on, I don't think that's a permanent thing," Gates said, who appeared at the conference in his role as the founder of Breakthrough Energy, the report noted.
Why It's Important: Breakthrough Energy is a climate-tech investment firm backed by Gates, Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) founder Jeff Bezos and Alibaba Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) founder Jack Ma. It was established in 2015.
Last year, the firm raised $839 million in its third flagship round, which prioritized advancing climate technology and backing startups focusing on reducing emissions.
In March 2025, Breakthrough Energy announced significant operational cutbacks in an internal memo sent to staff, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/climate/bill-gates-breakthrough-energy-cuts.html">reported</a> the New York Times.
In 2021, the Bill &amp; Melinda Gates Foundation announced a $315 million package to help smallholder farmers adapt to the growing threats posed by climate change.

Why It's Important: On May 1, Meta reported first-quarter revenue of $42.31 billion, surpassing analyst expectations of $41.39 billion. For the second quarter, the company expects revenue between $42.5 billion and $45.5 billion, compared to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro's</a> estimate of $44.06 billion.
Price Action: Meta shares are up just 0.01% year-to-date but have climbed 28.69% over the past 12 months. On Monday, the stock rose 0.38% during regular trading but slipped 0.36% after hours, settling at $597.10.
Meta currently holds a consensus price target of $704.19, based on assessments from 43 analysts. The highest target comes from Tigress Financial, which set a price of $935 on Feb. 11, 2025, while the lowest was issued by Scotiabank at $525 on April 21.
The three most recent analyst updates by RBC Capital, Morgan Stanley, and JMP Securities set an average price target of $713.33. That figure suggests a potential upside of 19.47% from Meta&#8217;s current trading level.
Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings assigns Meta a strong growth score of 74.97%, highlighting its solid performance.<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound"> Click here to see how it stacks up against</a> Amazon and Tesla.

Mark Zuckerberg Overtakes Jeff Bezos To Become World's Second-Richest Person As Meta Stock Soars

Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and one of the world's most influential entrepreneurs, once opened up in an interview about why most people fail to follow through on business or invention ideas — and how a rare mix of traits helped him turn an online bookstore into a $1.97 trillion e-commerce empire.
What Happened: "Well, it&#8217;s hard work," Bezos said during the interview in 2011. "It's easy to have ideas — it's very hard to turn an idea into a successful product."
He underscored that while anyone can dream up a business, very few can navigate the long, grueling path of bringing that idea to life. According to Bezos, the secret lies in a powerful combination of what he calls "stubborn relentlessness" and "flexibility."

"You need to be stubborn on your vision because otherwise, it&#8217;ll be too easy to give up," he explained. "But you need to be very flexible on the details because as you go along pursuing your vision, you&#8217;ll find that some of your preconceptions were wrong and you&#8217;re going to need to be able to change those things."
Bezos added, "Taking an idea successfully all the way to the market and turning it into a real product that people care about — and that really improves people&#8217;s lives — is a lot of hard work."

Why It's Important: Bezos didn't just talk the talk — he walked it all the way to Wall Street. After <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/24/02/37315156/if-you-invested-1-000-in-amazon-stock-at-ipo-heres-how-much-youd-have-today">quitting his job</a> at a New York investment firm, he drove cross-country to Seattle to launch Amazon from his garage in 1994.
The first product sold? A science textbook titled Fluid Concepts &amp; Creative Analogies: Computer Models of the Fundamental Mechanisms of Thought.
Amazon went public on May 15, 1997, with a share price of $18 and a valuation of around $300 million. Today, the company is worth over $1.97 trillion and has expanded far beyond books, offering everything from groceries to streaming content and cloud services.
Investors who put $1,000 into Amazon stock at its IPO and held on would now have about $1.86 million, thanks to stock splits and the company's meteoric rise.
Over the past five years, Amazon shares have gained 56.62%. However, the stock has slipped 1.25% over the past 12 months and is down 15.38% so far this year, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Bezos currently has a net worth of $209 billion, making him the third wealthiest person in the world after Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, according to the Bloomberg Billionaire <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/">Index</a>.
Amazon boasts a strong growth score of 94.12% in the Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to compare its performance with other</a> top e-commerce competitors.

Jeff Bezos Says It's 'Easy To Have Ideas' — But Here's Why Only The Relentlessly 'Stubborn' Can Turn Them Into Trillion-Dollar Businesses Like Amazon

Ross Gerber, CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth &amp; Investment Management, has taken to social media to unload on the Trump administration&#8217;s trade policy and what he says is a lack of transparency from major companies like Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>).
&#8220;All companies should display the tariff cost as it is a tax on consumers,&#8221; Gerber <a href="https://x.com/GerberKawasaki/status/1917228510596177984">posted</a> last week on X, responding in part to recent comments by President Donald Trump suggesting that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44944580/trump-says-tariffs-could-replace-income-tax-experts-warn-the-math-doesnt-work">tariffs could replace income taxes</a> for many Americans. &#8220;While they push this no income tax fantasy, the reality is this is the biggest tax HIKE on the average American family in modern history. Amazon should be transparent.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Amazon Denies Tariff Transparency Plan</h2>
The post came on the same day a Punchbowl News <a href="https://punchbowl.news/article/tech/amazon-display-tariff-costs/">report</a> claimed Amazon was planning to show import charges on its main site. The White House jumped in quickly, with press secretary Karoline Leavitt <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/45067585/amazon-stock-tumbles-as-white-house-calls-tariff-visibility-plans-a-hostile-act">calling the alleged move</a> &#8220;a hostile and political act by Amazon.&#8221;&nbsp;
On its <a href="https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/retail/amazon-response-to-white-house-tariffs">website</a>, Amazon responded by saying no such plan existed for its main platform: &#8220;The team that runs our ultra low cost Amazon Haul store considered the idea of listing import charges on certain products. This was never approved and is not going to happen.&#8221; Haul is Amazon&#8217;s budget-focused unit that competes with sites like Temu and Shein.
President Trump even <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/45090925/trumps-call-to-jeff-bezos-over-amazons-tariff-display-plans-draws-criticism-from-peter-schiff-this-is-the-type-of-stuff-you-might-expect-to-see-in-china">called Amazon founder</a> and executive chairman Jeff Bezos to complain about the situation, later telling reporters, &#8220;He solved the problem very quickly. He did the right thing.&#8221;
Trending: Donald Trump just announced a $500 billion AI infrastructure deal — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/seize-a-share-while-you-still-can-in-the-2-trillion-entertainment-market-with-elf-labs-at-just-2-25-share">here's how you can invest in the entertainment market's next big disruptor at $2.25 per share</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Backlash and Support Online</h2>
Gerber's post sparked widespread debate online. One X user <a href="https://x.com/DaddyLoser/status/1917232950233506153">replied</a>, "This is awesome – now I know it's not made in the U.S. and I can shop elsewhere." Others called for even more accountability: "Be transparent and hold Republicans accountable for this mess," one person <a href="https://x.com/MissJilianne/status/1917231846859149439">posted</a>.
Several commenters compared the idea to how shipping companies add a fuel surcharge, calling tariff breakdowns on consumer products a &#8220;no-brainer.&#8221;

With all sides weighing in, Gerber&#8217;s message has struck a nerve: if tariffs are here to stay, Americans deserve to see exactly how much they're paying and for what.

Ross Gerber Blasts Amazon, Trump. Says The No Income Tax Is A Fantasy, 'Tariffs The Biggest Tax Hike On American Family In Modern History'

Wall Street rebounded last week, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45178002/wall-street-fully-recoups-tariff-led-losses-economy-contracts-in-first-quarter-yet-april-payrolls-remain-strong-this-week-in-markets">reversing the losses prompted by the Trump administration&#8217;s</a> tariff attack on April 2.
Encouraged by positive trade news and a surprisingly strong beginning to earnings season, the S&amp;P 500 recorded its second consecutive weekly gain — its longest winning run since May 2024. Tech giants Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) beat forecasts, with Microsoft recording a record week. Meanwhile, deflating inflation, robust jobs data and tariff anxiety kept the surroundings abuzz.
In contrast to this macro tailwind, a few leveraged and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">thematic ETFs took center stage</a> with spectacular gains:
Defiance Daily Target 2X Long HIMS ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HIMZ#NASDAQ">HIMZ</a>) was the top performer with a stunning 91.3% weekly jump, fueled by increased investor appetite for telehealth and speculative momentum. New weight-loss medications and sustained demand from the underlying company, Hims &amp; Hers Health Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HIMS#NYSE">HIMS</a>), drove the rally.
MAX Airlines 3X Leveraged ETNs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JETU#NYSE">JETU</a>) rose 16.2% as airline shares took off on tailwinds from an uptick in a few airline stocks.
MicroSectors FANG+ 3 Leveraged ETNs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FNGB#NYSE">FNGB</a>) jumped 13.2%, boosted by mega-cap tech outperformance.
United States Natural Gas Fund LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNG#NYSE">UNG</a>) surged 10.2% on inventory drawdowns that reignited gas bulls. A drop in production output and record LNG exports led the gains, <a href="https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/natural-gas#:~:text=Natural%20gas%20is%20expected%20to,4.26%20in%2012%20months%20time.">according </a>to Trading Economics.
Direxion Daily Uranium Bull 2X ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/URAA#NYSE">URAA</a>) rose 6%, as nuclear power talk and supply issues stoked demand for the uranium sector. The fourth round of nuclear talks between Iran and the U.S., which was supposed to happen on Saturday, was postponed, bringing the sector into the spotlight.
The ETF leaderboard indicates investors aren&#8217;t only riding the rally — they&#8217;re aiming for high-octane names in spaces with both narrative pull and near-term catalysts.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">What Happened Last Week</h1>
Wall Street mounted a robust recovery, erasing losses from the Trump administration&#8217;s April 2 tariff shock, due to positive trade developments and a surprisingly robust start to earnings season.
Tech giants beat forecasts, with Microsoft standing out the brightest. The S&amp;P 500 recorded a second weekly gain, its best run since May 2024.
Top performers were Arista Networks Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANET#NYSE">ANET</a>) and Carrier Global Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CARR#NYSE">CARR</a>) (both +~20%).
Industrials and tech drove the rally; energy stocks fell as oil prices fell to $58, oil&#8217;s second-worst week this year. OPEC+ supply speculation and Trump saber-rattling over Iranian oil did not boost crude.
Macroeconomic news was mixed: GDP decreased 0.3% (vs. an expected 0.4% rise), yet reassuring jobs (177,000 nonfarm payrolls vs. 130,000 anticipated) and softening inflation provided cheer. Core PCE inflation came down to 2.6%.
Now, everyone&#8217;s eye is on the next Fed meeting. The rates will likely stay put, yet Fed Chair Jerome Powell&#8217;s commentary, particularly post-Trump&#8217;s renewed rate-cut pressure, is the big draw.

Hims &amp; Hers Health Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HIMS#NYSE">HIMS</a>) is suddenly looking like the hottest prescription in town &#8211; up 220% in the past year and turning heads with a bold new partnership that might just <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care">reshape digital healthcare</a>.
The company <a href="https://investors.hims.com/news/news-details/2025/Hims--Hers-and-Novo-Nordisk-Team-Up-to-Expand-Affordable-Access-to-Care/default.aspx">announced</a> a long-term collaboration with pharmaceutical heavyweight Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>), kicking off with a bundled offering of FDA-approved weight-loss drug Wegovy. For $599/month, customers get the medication, 24/7 clinical access and lifestyle coaching &#8211; all via the Hims &amp; Hers platform.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Amazon&#8217;s Playbook At Work</h2>
It's a move straight out of Amazon.com Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) playbook: Build trust with accessible, affordable services, scale quickly, and monetize the ecosystem.
As Capitalist-Letters writer Oguz O. <a href="https://x.com/thexcapitalist/status/1917935673400611150">noted</a> on X, Amazon didn't just sell cheap books &#8211; it built Prime. Now, Hims is doing the same in healthcare, using tech to transform chronic care delivery into a consumer experience.
More importantly, this deal isn't one-and-done. It's the first step in a broader roadmap to expand Hims' reach far beyond obesity care. With Novo Nordisk in its corner and the infrastructure already in place, Hims is positioning itself to scale into other therapeutic areas—diabetes, hormonal treatments, mental health and beyond.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">HIMS Stock Chart Bullish, Valuation Looks Attractive</h2>
Investors are taking note. Not only is HIMS stock trading above all key moving averages (eight, 20, 50 and 200-day), but the stock is flashing bullish across the technical board. With momentum like this, it's no surprise bulls are projecting 30% annual revenue growth, leading to $5.5 billion in revenue by 2030. 
Slap on a 20% margin and a 25x P/E multiple, and you're looking at a $27 billion company &#8211; up from today's $7 billion valuation, Oguz noted.
Hims seems poised to move beyond the health business into a healthcare delivery empire. The Amazon of medicine might be arriving sooner than expected—and it's not coming in two days—it's already here.

Hims & Hers: The Next Amazon? Novo Nordisk Might Be Prime Delivery

<ul>
<li>Amazon had plans to list tariff prices alongside item totals for some wares, it was reported by Punchbowl News on Tuesday</li>

</ul>
Hours after it was reported that Amazon was planning to include tariff costs on its site, the plan was scrapped entirely. The decision was made after President Donald Trump personally called Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Chair Jeff Bezos to complain about the company's plan to list U.S. tariff costs on its website, a source familiar with the matter told <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/29/white-house-blasts-amazon-over-tariff-cost-report-hostile-and-political-act.html">NBC News</a> on Tuesday.&nbsp;
<a href="https://punchbowl.news/article/tech/amazon-display-tariff-costs/">Punchbowl News</a> reported earlier Tuesday that Amazon was planning to list the tariff cost next to each item's total price for shoppers.

Amazon Drops Plan To List Tariff Costs On Site After Trump Administration Calls The Move A 'Hostile And Political Action'

President Donald Trump says he will personally phone chief executives who make business moves he dislikes, a tactic he deployed last week with Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) founder Jeff Bezos over planned tariff disclosures on the e‑commerce giant's site.
What Happened: In an <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-call-ceos-plans-prices-tariffs-rcna204702">interview</a> on NBC's "Meet the Press," Trump recounted calling Bezos after Punchbowl News reported Amazon might label import fees tied to the administration's new 145% tariff on Chinese goods. "He's just a very nice guy," Trump said. "I asked him about [the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/45086459/amazon-pressures-suppliers-for-discounts-may-show-tariff-related-costs-on-haul-site">tariff disclosure</a>]. He said, ‘Well, I don't want to do that,' and he took it off immediately." Amazon later confirmed the low‑cost Haul storefront had only "considered" the idea and dropped it.
Trump insisted he would ring any CEO whose actions he deemed "hurtful to the country." He framed tariffs not as consumer taxes but as incentives to reshore manufacturing. "The company eats the tariff," he told moderator Kristen Welker.
Asked whether fewer toys on store shelves would mark success, Trump replied, "Maybe the children will have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/25/05/45144516/trump-a-grinch-or-santa-for-christmas-children-will-have-two-dolls-instead-of-30-dolls">two dolls instead of thirty</a>. … We don't have to waste money on a trade deficit with China for junk we don't need."

Why It Matters: Economist Peter Schiff <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45152587/trumps-call-to-jeff-bezos-over-amazons-tariff-display-earns-peter-schiffs-ire-type-of-stuff-you-migh">blasted Trump's call</a> to Jeff Bezos, calling it "the type of stuff you might expect to see in China." Sen. Elizabeth Warren followed up with a pointed letter to the Amazon founder, asking if Trump's angry phone call pushed Bezos to kill the tariff‑label plan in exchange for "promises or favors." <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/25/05/45128591/elizabeth-warren-asks-jeff-bezos-if-trump-threatened-retaliation-or-offered-favors-after-calling-him-very-nice-for-amazons-reversal-on-showing-tariff-fees">Warren warned</a> that scrubbing tariff costs "keeps consumers in the dark" and could signal a corrupt quid‑pro‑quo between Big Tech and the White House.
Days later, Trump marked his first 100 days back in office by welcoming more than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/45060579/nvidia-johnson-johnson-hyundai-toyota-softbank-ceos-to-join-trump-at-white-house-as-he-touts-inv">two dozen corporate chiefs</a> to the White House. He used the "Investing in America" event to spotlight new spending commitments from powerhouses such as NVIDIA Corp.

Donald Trump Vows To 'Call' Up CEOs Who Make Business Moves That Displease Him, Explains Why He Phoned Jeff Bezos To Scrap Amazon's Tariff Disclosure

"This is a concerted effort by other Nations and, therefore, a National Security threat. It is, in addition to everything else, messaging and propaganda," Trump said on Truth Social.
Economist&nbsp;Peter Schiff&nbsp;criticized the move, citing potential subscriber losses for companies like&nbsp;Netflix.
Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>), Warner Bros.

Movie and TV production&nbsp;noted an exodus from Hollywood to locations with tax incentives, prompting media companies like Netflix and Disney to film overseas in countries like Canada and Britain.
Global governments increased credits and cash rebates to attract production and capture a greater share of the $248 billion that Ampere Analysis expects to be spent globally in 2025 to produce content, Reuters reports.
Australia and New Zealand&nbsp;promised to extend solidarity with their local industries. Disney Marvel has filmed many superhero movies in Australia. The Lord of the Rings was shot in New Zealand.
Film and high-end TV production in the U.K. was worth 5.6 billion pounds ($7.45 billion) in 2024, a 31% jump in 2023, Reuters cited the British Film Institute.
It is not clear to which movies the tariffs would apply or whether it would include streaming services. According to Reuters, Hollywood executives were trying to find out the details on Sunday.

5 Stock Picks Last Week From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

Chinese bargain retailer Temu has abruptly stopped shipping products directly from China to U.S. consumers as it confronts President Donald Trump&#8216;s 145% tariffs and the end of a key import loophole that took effect Friday.
What Happened: The e-commerce platform owned by PDD Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>) has pivoted to displaying only products shipped from U.S.-based warehouses on its website and app, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/02/temu-halts-shipments-direct-from-china-as-de-minimis-tariff-rule-ends-.html">reported</a> CNBC. 
Items previously shipped directly from China are now labeled &#8220;out of stock,&#8221; marking a dramatic shift for a company that built its U.S. presence on ultra-cheap goods shipped directly from Chinese suppliers.
&#8220;Temu has been actively recruiting U.S. sellers to join the platform,&#8221; a company spokesperson told CNBC. &#8220;The move is designed to help local merchants reach more customers and grow their businesses.&#8221; The spokesperson added that pricing for U.S. shoppers &#8220;remains unchanged.&#8221;
The change follows the expiration of the &#8220;de minimis&#8221; rule, which since 2016 had allowed items worth $800 or less to enter the country duty-free. The provision ended at 12:01 a.m. EDT Friday under an executive order signed by Trump in April. 
Days earlier, Temu had briefly added &#8220;import charges&#8221; ranging from 130% to 150% on China-shipped products, which often exceeded the items&#8217; prices.

Why It Matters: The new regime imposes 90% duties or $75 per item on Chinese imports, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/retail-sales/25/04/44714336/temu-shein-brace-for-impact-as-trumps-tariff-torpedo-blows-up-the-800-loophole">scheduled to increase</a> to $150 per item by June 2025.
The end of the duty-free loophole affects other retailers too. Shein has raised prices while adding a checkout notice that &#8220;tariffs are included in the price you pay.&#8221; Amazon.com Inc.
