Dogecoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) corrective phase might seem never-ending, but a popular trader predicted Monday that the next surge was not far away.
What happened: Trader Tardigrade, known for their bullish outlook on the dog-themed cryptocurrency, noted the formation of a triangle pattern, similar to the 2017-18 bull market.
A triangle is a continuation pattern on a chart that forms a triangle-like shape. However, when the price breaks out from a symmetrical triangle, they move in the direction of the initial move before the triangle formed.
In the current example, Trader Tardigrade expected Dogecoin to break to the upside and follow the previous bull cycle.

The bullish optimism was also prevalent in the Dogecoin futures market, as over 80% of the traders on Binance were positioned long on the world's largest meme coin by market capitalization, <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/LongShortRatio">data </a>from Coinglass showed.

Why It Matters: The confidence seemingly stemmed from a higher probability of a Dogecoin exchange-traded fund approval this year.&nbsp;
The <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/doge-etf-approved-in-2025?tid=1739483386792">odds</a> on the Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">POL</a>)-based prediction market, Polymarket, surged to 67% as of this writing, up from 55% a day earlier.
Notably, NYSE Arca, a New York Stock Exchange subsidiary, submitted a 19b-4 application on Monday, seeking approval to list shares of the ETF proposed by Bitwise Asset Management.
The filing of the 19b-4 document was the second step in the process, following the <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43294030/polymarket-bets-turn-bullish-on-2025-dogecoin-etf-after-bitwise-move">submission of S-1 documents</a> by Bitwise in January.&nbsp;
Price Action: At the time of writing, Dogecoin was exchanging hands at $0.1926, down 11.56% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Malaysian Trade Minister Tengku Zafrul Aziz said Tuesday the country will take &#8220;necessary action&#8221; against Malaysian companies if they&#8217;re implicated in a fraud case involving Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips allegedly routed from Singapore.
What Happened: &#8220;Right now, there&#8217;s no such cases in Malaysia to date, and we are investigating,&#8221; Zafrul <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/03/04/malaysia-says-itll-take-action-if-firms-involved-in-nvidia-fraud-case.html">told</a> CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Squawk Box Asia,&#8221; adding that Malaysia has no information suggesting data center companies there are misusing chips.
The statement follows Singapore Law Minister K Shanmugam&#8216;s Monday comments that servers in a fraud case may have contained Nvidia AI chips sent to Malaysia.
&#8220;The question is whether Malaysia was a final destination or from Malaysia, it went to somewhere else,&#8221; Shanmugam said.

Why It Matters: On Thursday, Singapore charged three men with fraud in cases linked to the alleged movement of Nvidia chips. According to Shanmugam, the chips were embedded in servers supplied by Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) and Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) to Singapore-based companies <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/44033587/nvidia-chips-smuggled-to-china-3-men-charged-in-singapore-amid-us-export-crackdown">before transfer to Malaysia</a>.
When asked if Malaysia knew where the servers were now, Zafrul replied, &#8220;we don&#8217;t know,&#8221; adding authorities are checking if they went to the right parties.
The investigation emerges amid broader concerns about restricted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/03/44089103/whats-going-on-with-nvidia-shares-monday">U.S. technology reaching China</a>. Reuters reported in January that the U.S. Commerce Department is investigating whether Chinese AI startup DeepSeek has been using U.S. chips prohibited from export to China, noting &#8220;organized AI chip smuggling to China has been tracked out of countries including Malaysia, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates.&#8221;

Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBA#NASDAQ">WBA</a>) rose over 7% in premarket on Tuesday as it is on the verge of finalizing an agreement with private-equity firm Sycamore Partners to take the drugstore chain private. 
What Happened: The deal is approximately valued at $10 billion, according to a <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/deals/walgreens-nears-roughly-10-billion-deal-to-be-go-private-ee07f2fa">report</a> by the Wall Street Journal. The two parties are reportedly aiming to complete the transaction as early as Thursday, contingent on avoiding any last-minute complications.
Discussions have centered on Sycamore Partners paying between $11.30 and $11.40 per share in cash. The potential deal may also include contingent value rights, which would provide additional value to shareholders if certain performance targets are met in the future, the report stated.
If Sycamore Partners successfully acquires the entire company, the firm intends to retain Walgreens&#8217; core U.S. retail operations. The remaining segments of the company would likely be sold off or taken public.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced a 25% tariff on $155 billion worth of U.S. goods. This decision comes as a direct response to the 25% tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump on Canadian goods.
What Happened: Trudeau has stated that these tariffs will stay in effect until the U.S. reverses its trade measures, <a href="https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/politics/2025/03/04/we-will-be-ready-canada-to-retaliate-with-25-tariffs-on-us-goods-if-trump-follows-through/">reported</a> BNN Bloomberg. The Canadian tariff plan, announced last month, includes two phases targeting a total of $30 billion in U.S. goods initially. An additional round of tariffs on a wider range of American products, worth $125 billion, is scheduled to take effect in 21 days.
Trump&#8217;s initial threat of punitive&nbsp;tariffs on Canadian goods in&nbsp;late November was intended to reduce the influx of illegal migrants and drugs across the border. Despite Canada&#8217;s attempts to delay these tariffs, including a $1.3-billion border plan and the appointment of a &#8220;fentanyl czar&#8221;, Trump confirmed on Monday that Canada will not receive any further reprieves.
According to Reuters, the initial round of retaliation covers over 1200 products, including motorcycles, apparel, wine, coffee, footwear, peanut butter, cosmetics, beer, appliances, spirits, orange juice, and pulp and paper.
Meanwhile, the second tranche could include a diverse selection of U.S. imports including fruits and vegetables, beef, pork, and dairy products, steel and aluminum goods, passenger vehicles and trucks, electric vehicles, and aerospace components.
That being said, Canadian Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson is still hopeful of a partnership with the U.S. over critical minerals. Wilkinson stated that his argument to U.S. officials has been that it is much more beneficial to discuss how the U.S. and Canada can support one another.

Why It Matters: The escalating trade war between the U.S. and Canada is a direct result of Trump&#8217;s decision to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44092335/trumps-tariffs-threaten-canada-mexico-china-and-american-wallets"> impose 25% </a>tariffs on Canadian imports, as well as 10% duties on energy products from Canada. This move has not only strained relations between the two North American neighbors but also threatens to destabilize the economy.
Ontario Premier&nbsp;Doug Ford&nbsp;has also expressed his readiness to &#8220;respond strongly&#8221; to Trump&#8217;s tariffs,&nbsp;threatening to cut off exports&nbsp;of Ontario nickel, remove American alcohol from liquor store shelves, and cancel provincial government contracts with U.S. companies.
Industry experts and U.S. automakers have opposed Trump&#8217;s tariff plans on multiple occasions. At an investor conference in February, Ford (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) CEO Jim Farley stated &#8220;Long term, a 25% tariff across the Mexico and Canadian border will blow a hole in the U.S. industry that we have never seen.&#8221; Similarly, Bernstein Research has determined that Detroit automakers will be especially vulnerable in comparison to their international rivals. According to another research by the Anderson Economic Group, tariffs may increase manufacturing costs per car by $4,000 to over $10,000, based on the vehicle model.

Why Did MTSR Stock Surge 15% On The Worst Trading Day Of 2025? Here's What Has Happened Since Its Listing

SpaceX on Monday canceled Starship&#8217;s eighth flight test merely seconds before liftoff. The company said that it is now ascertaining the next best date for the flight.
What Happened: &#8220;Starship team is determining the next best available opportunity to fly,&#8221; the company said in a post on X, formerly Twitter.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said in a post that the company scrapped the flight test because it experienced an issue with the vehicle.
&#8220;Too many question marks about this flight and then we were 20 bar low on ground spin start pressure. Best to destack, inspect both stages and try again in a day or two,&#8221; Musk said, raising hopes of the company attempting the flight before the end of the week.

</figure>
Why It Matters:&nbsp;For the upcoming test flight, SpaceX is eyeing Starship&#8217;s first payload deployment and experiments aimed at returning the upper stage of the two-stage vehicle to the launch site for catch. The company will also attempt to return and catch the vehicle&#8217;s Super Heavy booster, failing which it will have a soft splashdown in the Gulf of America.
SpaceX will attempt to deploy four Starlink simulators on its next flight, similar in size to the next generation of Starlink satellites.
SpaceX last launched Starship on Jan. 16.&nbsp;The spacecraft lifted off from Starbase in Texas at 4:37 p.m. CT, and the vehicle booster landed back at the launch site after separation from its first stage. The spacecraft, however,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43046722/starship-explodes-during-flight-test-elon-musk-says-success-is-uncertain-but-entertainment-is-guaranteed" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">disintegrated in space during the flight test owing to a propellant leak.</a>&nbsp;
The upcoming test flight would be Starship&#8217;s eighth to date and second this year. SpaceX started testing Starship in April 2023.

SpaceX Scraps Starship Flight Test On Monday: 'Too Many Question Marks About This Flight...,' Says CEO Elon Musk

General

FTI Consulting Subsidiary Compass Lexecon Expands Presence In Italy With New Office In Rome

China has responded forcefully to President Donald Trump&#8217;s recent tariff increases, implementing reciprocal tariffs on selected American goods, sanctioning U.S. companies, and <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44092335/trumps-tariffs-threaten-canada-mexico-china-and-american-wallets">announcing plans to file a complaint</a> with the World Trade Organization.
What Happened: Beijing&#8217;s actions, timed to coincide with the U.S. doubling of universal tariffs on Chinese goods, include duties of 15% on U.S. poultry and agricultural products such as wheat, corn, and cotton, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/economy/global-economy/article/3300948/china-hits-back-trump-reciprocal-tariffs-sanctions-us-firms?module=top_story&amp;pgtype=homepage">reported</a> South China Morning Post. Tariffs of 10% will be applied to imports of soybeans, pork, beef, and various food products.
&#8220;The unilateral tariff measures launched by the United States seriously violate the rules of the WTO and undermine the basis for bilateral economic and trade cooperation,&#8221; said a Chinese Ministry of Commerce spokesperson in an official statement.
Beyond tariffs, the Ministry of Commerce added 15 U.S. firms to China&#8217;s export control list, requiring special approval for them to receive exports of &#8220;dual-use&#8221; items. Another ten American companies were placed on Beijing&#8217;s &#8220;unreliable entity list,&#8221; effectively banning them from trading with China or making <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/02/43462612/china-retaliatory-tariff-playbook-corn-wheat-soybeans-in-the-crosshairs">new investments in the country</a>.

Why It Matters: The escalation follows Trump&#8217;s announcement last week to double tariffs on Chinese imports, augmenting the 10% duties in effect since February. These moves are widely viewed as the opening shots of a new trade war, with Trump signaling on his Truth Social platform that more tariffs could be coming on Apr. 2.
<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-full"><img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/04032944/Screenshot-2025-03-04-at-1.58.41%E2%80%AFPM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-807484" /></figure>
Economists note that while China&#8217;s response is significant, it remains measured. &#8220;Today&#8217;s list covers agricultural goods such as soybeans that are important for trade between the two countries,&#8221; said Zhang Zhiwei, chief economist at Pinpoint Asset Management. &#8220;But China retaliated on a small share of U.S. exports. I think China is still trying not to escalate the trade war.&#8221;
Earlier in February, China had already <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/02/43454424/china-strikes-back-new-tariffs-up-to-15-on-certain-us-imports-in-retaliation-for-trumps-10-levy-on-chinese-goods">imposed 15% tariffs</a> on coal and liquefied natural gas and 10% on crude oil, agricultural machinery, and high-displacement vehicles, affecting major U.S. exporters like Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>), Chevron Corp.

China Strikes Back At Trump's Tariffs With Retaliatory Duties, US Company Sanctions, And WTO Showdown

Morgan Stanley&nbsp;has reinstated&nbsp;Elon Musk&#8216;s Tesla Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)&nbsp;as its top U.S. auto&nbsp;pick, citing the company&#8217;s focus on artificial intelligence and robotics, in a note on Sunday.
What Happened: The endorsement comes despite Tesla&#8217;s recent challenges, including a 45% drop in European sales in January and a decline in 2024 annual deliveries. Analyst Adam Jonas highlighted the company&#8217;s shift from a &#8220;pure automotive play&#8221; to a diversified focus on AI and robotics.
Jonas reiterated his $430 price target for Tesla, making it one of the highest on Wall Street, implying&nbsp;nearly a 51% upside to the&nbsp;stock&#8217;s closing price on Monday. This aligns with CEO Elon Musk&#8217;s strategy of pivoting the company towards AI and robotaxis.
In the research note, Jonas stated that the market potential for non-automotive applications of embodied AI is significantly larger and will be adopted more rapidly than autonomous vehicles. 
&#8220;Humanoid robot opportunity is not in our base or bull case but is becoming serious enough to move the stock. On our calculations, every 1% of U.S. labor force that can be captured by Tesla Optimus is worth approximately $100/TSLA share,&#8221; explained Jonas.
Jonas is also well aware of Tesla&#8217;s challenges as an EV manufacturer. He cautioned in the note, &#8220;EV ‘winter may be prolonged and could still require further steps to mitigate further potential losses near term.&#8221; While Musk expects sales to increase with the introduction of more affordable models, Jonas suggests that deliveries could decrease in 2025, offering an &#8220;attractive entry point&#8221; for investors.

Why It Matters: Despite these optimistic projections, Tesla&#8217;s stock has underperformed the broader U.S. market, declining nearly 25% year-to-date. The stock fell nearly 40% from its December peak, erasing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/44005093/tesla-stock-has-fallen-nearly-40-from-dec-peak-wiping-almost-137-billion-from-elon-musks-wealth">almost $137 billion</a> from CEO Elon Musk&#8217;s wealth. This drop was largely due to a nearly 50% decline in European sales in January, amid potential tariffs and ongoing Musk&#8217;s political involvement in the federal cost-cutting efforts. 
Meanwhile, Tesla Chair Robyn Denholm on Monday sold <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44099647/tesla-chair-robyn-denholm-sells-over-30-million-in-shares-as-stock-drops-nearly-3-amid-trump-tariff-concerns#:~:text=Chair%20Robyn%20Denholm%20has%20sold,Tesla%20shares%20over%20recent%20months.">nearly $33.7 million worth of the company&#8217;s stock</a>, as part of a previously adopted trading plan. This sale followed a trend among Tesla insiders offloading shares as the company navigates macroeconomic uncertainties and intensifying competition in the EV market.

Tesla On Track For 50% Stock Jump Thanks To AI And Robotics, Says Top Wall Street Analyst: 'Humanoid Robot Serious Enough To Move The Stock'

Investor sentiment is highly disconnected over tariffs as equities and forex markets are showing significant divergence in response to the announcements. This comes amid President Donald Trump's take on yen and yuan's devaluation.
What Happened: According to the senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, Robin Brooks, the divergence in equity and foreign exchange paints two different pictures about the market sentiment on tariffs.
Brooks, formerly the chief FX strategist at Goldman Sachs, highlights that the weakening dollar defies the imposition of "meaningful" tariffs. Whereas, the decline in S&amp;P 500 implies that equities are taking a hit from the tariff news.
"Both can&#8217;t be right," reiterates Brooks in an X post.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">The Dollar and S&amp;P 500 have completely different takes on looming US tariffs.

Both can&#39;t be right&#8230; <a href="https://t.co/k5bjSed6Pv">pic.twitter.com/k5bjSed6Pv</a>

Meanwhile, as the U.S. dollar weakens, Trump has said that Japan's and China's plan to devalue their currency in response to tariff threats is "unfair" to the U.S., reported Reuters. According to Trump, the way to solve this problem "very easily is with tariffs."
However, Brooks believes that forex markets have turned agnostic to tariff threats, highlighting that the Mexican peso and Canadian dollar haven't been reacting as well.

However, over 120 years, the U.S. dollar remains the most overvalued relative to other fiat currencies, said Otavio Costa, the macro strategist at Crescat Capital in an X post.

Why It Matters: The implementation of tariffs leads to a stronger domestic currency as imports reduce with higher duties, leading to fewer payments being made to foreign suppliers. However, the dollar index has fallen by 3.27% from its 52-week high of 110.180 to 106.579, as of Monday.
On the other hand, tariffs negatively impact the stock market because the expectation of higher inflation from tariff imposition leads to monetary tightening from the central banks.
While the market sentiment has turned 60.6% bearish according to American Association of Individual Investors survey, the S&amp;P 500 index has slipped 4.84% from its 52-week high of 6,147.43 to 5,849.72, as of Monday. Thus, the stock market is factoring the tariff impact, whereas the dollar remains averse.
Price Action: The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, fell on Monday. The SPY declined 1.75% to $583.77, and the QQQ dropped 2.19% to $497.05, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data.
