Rocket Lab USA, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RKLB#NASDAQ">RKLB</a>) ("Rocket Lab" or "the Company"), a global leader in launch services and space systems, today successfully launched its 56th Electron mission, deploying five satellites to Low Earth Orbit for French Internet-of-Things (IoT) constellation operator Kinéis.

The "Ice AIS Baby" mission lifted-off from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 in Mahia, New Zealand at 4:55 pm on 25 November NZDT (03:55 UTC), successfully deploying five satellites to a 643 km low Earth orbit. The mission was Rocket Lab's 14th mission of 2024 and 56th launch overall. It also brought the total count of satellites deployed by Rocket Lab to 203, further cementing Electron's position as the leading small launch vehicle globally. The launch took place just 21 hours and 55 minutes after Rocket Lab completed a successful mission from Launch Complex 2 in Virginia, setting a new company record for fastest turnaround between launches.
Rocket Lab founder and CEO Sir Peter Beck said: "Two successful launches less than 24 hours apart from pads in different hemispheres. That's unprecedented capability in the small launch market and one we're immensely proud to deliver at Rocket Lab. Customers like Kinéis are unlocking the potential of space and we're excited to give them the keys to do so with frequent, dedicated, and reliable small launch opportunities."
Kinéis CEO Alexandre Tisserant, says: "The Kinéis teams have once again demonstrated their technical capabilities as satellite operators by taking control of these five new satellites at a sustained launch rate. This achievement would not have been possible without Rocket Lab's Electron precision in placing our satellites in their planned positions. With 15 Kinéis satellites now in orbit, we're one step closer to the full deployment of our dedicated IoT constellation for transmitting data in near-real time, anywhere on the globe. Congratulations to all our teams, who are doing an incredible job - and, let's not forget, a European first! We're equally enthusiastic about our second mission, AIS. In a rapidly consolidating market, Kinéis is establishing itself as a sovereign European player, combining technological expertise and strategic independence. With our new AIS offering, we provide maritime players with enhanced visibility over their fleets, while ensuring higher data reliability."
The "Ice AIS Baby" mission was the third of five dedicated Electron launches for Kinéis, a company backed by private and public investors including the French government's space agency CNES (Centre National d'Études Spatiales) and CLS (Collecte Localisation Satellites), an international space-based solutions provider, to improve global IoT connectivity. The Kinéis constellation is designed to make it possible to connect and locate any connected object anywhere in the world, enabling data transmission to users in near-real time, at low bit rates and with very low energy consumption. By enabling internet connection to the Earth's most remote locations, Kinéis constellation can support forest fire detection, water resource management, infrastructure and energy network monitoring, transport and logistics tracking, and much more.

A DHL (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHLGY#OTC">DHLGY</a>) cargo plane crashed into a house near Vilnius, Lithuania, Monday morning, killing at least one person. 
What Happened: Lithuanian broadcaster LRT reported two people were hospitalized, with one later pronounced dead. The Boeing Co&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) Boeing 737 aircraft, operated by Swiftair, was en route from Leipzig, Germany, to Vilnius Airport, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/lithuania-dhl-cargo-plane-crash-ff6382bb359c64ca2a345d50e523c396">reported</a> the Associated Press.
Authorities have not determined the cause of the crash, though weather conditions included freezing temperatures and pre-dawn clouds. Emergency services responded, and DHL Group and Swiftair have not commented. 
The 31-year-old aircraft struck a two-story home near the airport. Older planes are common in cargo operations but may raise safety questions, according to the report.

The Dogecoin Foundation, a non-profit building open-source projects for the Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) ecosystem, reshared an X post calling for equitable treatment for community-driven projects amid speculations of President-elect Donald Trump slashing capital gains tax on U.S.-issued cryptocurrencies.
What Happened: The Dogecoin Foundation shared arguments by a user called &#8220;junior developer,&#8221; who stated that the policy should be extended to all community-driven and open-source coins, not only those generated by U.S. companies.
&#8220;If I started a U.S. company to hardfork Dogecoin and the fact there&#8217;s a company behind it gives tax preference where classic Doge doesn&#8217;t get the same treatment, the Trump admin has chosen a network winner based on policy and preference. I reject that idea,&#8221; the user wrote.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">If the Trump administration is serious about reducing friction in cryptocurrency, they should apply this rule to community-driven, free and open source coins as well:<a href="https://t.co/p9igiFHCVE">https://t.co/p9igiFHCVE</a> Please like and RT this thread. 1/n
&mdash; &#x2623; junior developer &#x2623; (@chromatic_x) <a href="https://twitter.com/chromatic_x/status/1858904033861530113?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 19, 2024</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Junior developer added that penalizing cryptocurrencies backed by communities instead of companies could promote &#8220;crony capitalism.&#8221;
&#8220;And, this is bait, but if you&#8217;re railing against the global financial system doing exactly that with central banks, I think you should rail against a government doing it even if you like the government or parts of this policy,&#8221; he stated.
The Dogecoin team didn&#8217;t immediately respond to Benzinga&#8217;s request for additional commentary on this development.

Why It Matters: The pushback comes in <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-bold-move-could-crypto-193455642.html">response to media reports</a> that Trump could potentially transform the U.S. into a tax-free crypto haven for tokens created by U.S. companies. However, no formal confirmation has come as yet.
For U.S. taxpayers, short-term capital gains on cryptocurrencies held for less than a year are taxed at regular income rates, ranging from 10-37% depending on income and tax bracket, while long-term gains for coins held over a year are taxed at a reduced rate of 0-20%.
Tanya Solati, vice president of business development at real estate transaction platform Propy, pointed out that current tax laws, which impose a capital gains tax on every crypto-to-fiat transaction, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41608619/whats-stopping-wider-crypto-adoption-it-could-be-tax-policies-says-one-expert">make daily use impractical</a> and are a significant barrier to broader adoption.

Dogecoin Foundation Shares Message Against Trump's Tax Favoritism For US Crypto Firms

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Rivian Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) are nearing a settlement in a lawsuit over alleged theft of battery technology. The legal confrontation, which began in 2020, accused Rivian of recruiting Tesla employees to obtain confidential engineering data.
What Happened: Initially, Tesla alleged that Rivian hired ex-employees who brought sensitive documents with them.
The lawsuit later expanded to include claims of Rivian stealing core technology for advanced batteries. Despite efforts to settle outside of court, the case went to trial last year.
Tesla has informed the court of a conditional settlement agreement with Rivian, with plans to file for dismissal by Dec. 24, according to a Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-22/tesla-says-it-s-settling-technology-theft-suit-against-rivian">report</a>. The settlement terms remain undisclosed.

Tesla, known for its openness with patents, has maintained that Rivian&#8217;s actions were deliberate theft. The focus on &#8220;next-gen batteries&#8221; hints at the possible involvement of Tesla&#8217;s 4680 battery cells.
Rivian, on the other hand, plans to use a taller 4695 battery for its future vehicles.
Tesla and Rivian did not immediately respond to a <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga</a> request for comment.
Why It Matters: The lawsuit&#8217;s roots trace back to July 2020, when <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/20/07/16744936/tesla-sues-rival-ev-maker-rivian-for-poaching-employees-stealing-intellectual-property">Tesla accused Rivian of employee poaching</a> and intellectual property theft. Tesla described an &#8220;alarming pattern&#8221; of Rivian hiring its employees and obtaining its trade secrets.
In August 2020, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/20/08/17281377/ev-maker-rivian-taps-former-tesla-exec-as-top-engineer-despite-employee-poaching-lawsuit">Rivian hired Nick Kalayjian</a>, a former Tesla executive, as its top engineer, despite the ongoing lawsuit. This move highlighted the competitive nature of the electric vehicle industry and the strategic importance of engineering talent.
By August 2023, the case was still unresolved, with a California court <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/23/08/33545095/tesla-rivian-could-clash-in-california-court-over-trade-secrets-issue-what-you-need-to-know">tentatively denying requests for summary adjudication</a>, indicating the complexity and significance of the trade secrets involved.
Price Action: Tesla stock closed 3.80% higher on Friday at $352.56, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>. Rivian stock edged up 2.20% to close at $10.24 on Friday.

Tesla, Rivian Signal End To 4-Year Legal Battle Over Alleged Trade Secrets Theft

The Future Fund LLC Managing Partner Gary Black defended his firm&#8217;s Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) investment strategy amid criticism from Tesla bulls, emphasizing a disciplined approach to position management <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42056286/tesla-is-back-in-gary-blacks-top-5-holdings">rather than short-term trading</a>.
What Happened: Black revealed that his fund&#8217;s average Tesla stock purchase price since early 2023 has been $162, while their average selling price reached $252. The disclosure came as The Future Fund recently trimmed its Tesla position at $351, following a 150% surge from April lows.
&#8220;That&#8217;s what professional investors do &#8211; buy low, sell high,&#8221; Black stated on X, addressing criticism from Tesla enthusiasts. &#8220;No one ever went broke by taking profits.&#8221;
The Future Fund began reducing its Tesla position in the fourth quarter of 2022 when it represented 12.2% of the portfolio, following Tesla&#8217;s 20% EV price cuts. 
The position now stands at 4.11% as of Nov 15, making Tesla <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42056286/tesla-is-back-in-gary-blacks-top-5-holdings">the fifth-largest holding</a> in The Future Fund Active ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FFND#NYSE">FFND</a>), behind NVIDIA Corp.

Why It Matters: Black pointed to Tesla&#8217;s earnings estimates being reduced by 59% since the price cuts, noting that competitors matched the reductions, resulting in minimal volume growth. Despite the recent rally, Tesla&#8217;s stock has underperformed the NASDAQ 100 index by 32 percentage points over the past three years.
The investment veteran expressed concern about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/42028323/gary-black-defends-tesla-strategy-amid-clash-with-elon-musk-bulls-we-dont-trade-tesla-we-trim-when-the-price-goes-higher">growing polarization within the Tesla investor community</a>, noting that moderate voices face criticism for discussing potential risks. 
&#8220;In the X world, uberbulls bash fellow bulls personally for not being bullish enough. That does not happen in the real world. Portfolio discipline is rewarded, not criticized,&#8221; Black emphasized.
The debate comes amid increased attention on Tesla, with recent headlines highlighting the Cybertruck&#8217;s appearance in President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s motorcade during a visit to SpaceX&#8217;s Starbase facility, potentially signaling new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42152721/tesla-cybertruck-part-of-donald-trumps-motorcade-will-vehicle-land-government-deals">opportunities in government and security sectors</a>.
Price Action: Tesla stock closed at $352.56 on Friday, up 3.80% for the day. After hours, the stock rose by 0.26%. Year-to-date, Tesla&#8217;s stock has surged by 41.92%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Gary Black Defends Tesla Trim At $351: 'No One Ever Went Broke By Taking Profits' Amid Stock's 150% Surge Since April

Over the weekend, Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) co-founder Marc Randolph shared his thoughts on wealth, pointing out that true financial security goes beyond material luxuries.
What Happened: Sharing his perspective on X, formerly Twitter, he shared how, despite having the means to buy expensive items like luxury cars or wines, he values practicality over prestige.
He gave an example of Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates – who currently has a net worth of $162 billion – would fly economy, not because he couldn't afford first class, but because he didn't see it as good value.
"In the same vein, I could afford a really nice car at this point, but I've never been a car guy, and I don't need a Lamborghini or a Mazerati [Maserati] (which I can't even spell)," he stated.

Adding, "I don't need to drop $1000 on a bottle of wine at dinner either, since I know I'll get the same enjoyment from a $35 bottle."
He concluded by saying that once basic needs are met, the key to wealth lies in flexibility — the ability to choose how to spend your time and prioritize meaningful experiences.

Why It Matters: As of Aug. 28, 2024, Randolph's net worth was at $100 million, <a href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-businessmen/ceos/marc-randolph-net-worth/">according</a> to Celebrity Net Worth.
He <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/18/05/11764543/this-day-in-market-history-netflix-goes-public">co-founded Netflix</a> on Aug. 29, 1997, with Reed Hastings in Scotts Valley, California.&nbsp;
The inception of Netflix stemmed from Hastings&#8217; frustration with late <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/company-news/10/08/445627/bye-bye-blockbuster-video-store-chain-to-file-bankruptcy-next-mont">fees incurred</a> at a Blockbuster store.
The Netflix website launched in April 1998, offering around 900 titles. By 1999, Netflix introduced a subscription model that allowed unlimited rentals for a monthly fee, eliminating late fees.
This approach set the foundation for the company&#8217;s evolution into a streaming giant, which began in 2007 when it transitioned to online streaming services.
In 2002, Netflix launched its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/04/38340753/if-you-invested-1-000-in-netflix-stock-at-its-ipo-heres-how-much-youd-have-today">initial public offering</a>, selling 5.5 million shares at $15 each. In the early years, the stock delivered impressive triple-digit returns to investors.
The streaming giant currently has a market capitalization of $383.76 billion, ranking at number 25 in the list world's most valuable companies.
Last month, Netflix reported $9.825 billion in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41391637/netflix-q3-earnings-revenue-beats-eps-tops-q4-guidance-projects-subscriber-boost-from-squid-game-nf">revenue for the third quarter</a>, marking a 15% increase compared to the previous year. This figure surpassed the Wall Street consensus estimate of $9.769 billion, according to data <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent101724&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">from Benzinga Pro</a>.

He stated that the next phase of AI development will focus on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/10/41428765/microsoft-salesforce-battle-heats-up-as-ai-agent-technology-takes-center-stage">autonomous agents</a>, which can perform tasks independently, rather than relying on LLMs to drive advancements.
He argued that while AI tools like ChatGPT have received significant attention, the real potential lies in agents.

&#8220;Has the AI taken over? No. Has AI cured cancer? No. Is AI curing climate change? No. So we have to keep things in perspective here,&#8221; he stated.
Salesforce provides both prebuilt and customizable AI agents for businesses looking to automate customer service functions.
&#8220;But we are not at that moment that we&#8217;ve seen in these crazy movies — and maybe we will be one day, but that is not where we are today,&#8221; Benioff stated during the podcast.
ChatGPT-maker OpenAI is also reportedly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/24/11/41964846/openais-operator-ai-agent-will-perform-tasks-like-coding-travel-booking-and-more-launch-expected-in-january-next-year-report">planning the launch</a> of its own set of agents.

Why It Matters: Previously, Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang said that he believes humans will eventually work alongside AI agents and &#8220;AI employees.&#8221;
Last month, Nvidia announced its partnership with Accenture Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACN#NYSE">ACN</a>) which aims to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41156669/jensen-huang-on-transformative-partnership-with-accenture-ai-as-digital-employees-will-revolutio">deploy AI agents across corporations</a>.
Last month, Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) also announced that businesses will be able to create their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/10/41428765/microsoft-salesforce-battle-heats-up-as-ai-agent-technology-takes-center-stage">own autonomous AI agents</a> starting in November. This development came after Salesforce introduced its AI tools in September with the launch of Agentforce.
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has also previously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41736493/microsoft-co-founder-bill-gates-says-everyone-in-future-will-have-a-utilitarian-ai-agent-that-will-h">echoed similar sentiments</a> as Huang.
Earlier, Tony Fadell, co-creator of the iPod, also voiced his concerns about LLMs, calling them &#8220;know-it-alls.&#8221; He acknowledged that while LLMs can be useful in areas like entertainment, they shouldn&#8217;t be universally adopted due to their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41616573/ipod-co-creator-tony-fadell-dismisses-chatgpt-type-llms-saying-were-trying-to-make-science-fiction-h">tendency to make mistakes</a>.

Marc Benioff Says Future Of AI Not In Bots Like ChatGPT But In Autonomous Agents: We Aren't At The Moment Seen In Those 'Crazy' Movies

Australia&#8217;s Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced a plan to ban social media use for children under 16, requiring platforms like Meta Platforms Inc,&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) Facebook and Instagram, TikTok, X (formerly Twitter), and Snap Inc.&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) Snapchat to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40784803/after-feud-with-elon-musk-and-mark-zuckerberg-australian-pm-anthony-albanese-set-to-ban-social-media">verify users&#8217; ages</a>.
What Happened: The government will trial an age-verification system, possibly including biometrics or government ID. Social media companies must destroy any personal data used for verification, with fines of up to $32 million for non-compliance, reported Reuters. 
&#8220;There will be very strong and strict privacy requirements to protect people&#8217;s personal information, including an obligation to destroy information provided once age has been verified,&#8221; Albanese said on Monday.
Critics, including Elon Musk, argue the bill may limit internet access for Australians. The government aims to pass the law by the end of the parliamentary year.

As Meta, TikTok, X And Snapchat Stare At Tough Under-16 Ban, Australia's PM Says Destroy Personal Data 'Once Age Is Verified' Or Risk $32M Fine

Renowned investment adviser&nbsp;Gary Black questioned the valuation of&nbsp;MicroStrategy Incorporated&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>), suggesting the company&#8217;s stock was significantly overpriced.
What Happened: In a recent X post, Black, managing partner at The Future Fund, expressed his confusion over MicroStrategy&#8217;s stock price. 
He pointed out that the company&#8217;s Bitcoin holdings, worth $31.2 billion when he made the observation, and its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41693867/microstrategy-shares-are-falling-today-what-you-need-to-know">net debt</a> of $4.2 billion equated to an equity value of $27 billion. However, the company&#8217;s stock market value stood at a whopping $106 billion. 
Black estimated that MicroStrategy&#8217;s&nbsp;shares should be worth about&nbsp;$105/share, a figure 75% lower than its current trading price. 
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true"><a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%24MSTR&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">$MSTR</a> ‘s stock price makes no sense to me. MicroStrategy owned 331,200 bitcoins at last count, worth $31.2 billion at <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/BTC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#BTC</a> =$100K, and has about $4.2 billion of net debt, which equates to $27B equity value.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Black added that MicroStrategy&#8217;s core software business wasn&#8217;t contributing to growth. Indeed, the software segment recorded a 10.3% decline in year-on-year revenues. 
&#8220;It would be like a company issuing cash or debt and then buying marketable securities. No one will pay for growth from that since anyone can buy Bitcoin,&#8221; he argued. 
Black also ruled out valuing stocks based on future earnings expectations, instead opting to measure the stock&#8217;s fundamental business, in this case, MicroStrategy, in conjunction with the value of Bitcoin.

Why It Matters: Black&#8217;s comments come in the wake of recent research by BitMEX, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42138209/microstrategy-trading-at-insane-256-premium-to-bitcoin-holdings-research-shows">showed that MicroStrategy is trading at a 256% premium</a> to the net asset value (NAV) of its Bitcoin holdings. The analysis connected the extreme valuation disparity to some financial regulators banning people from buying Bitcoin ETFs, leading them to buy MicroStrategy&#8217;s stock instead.
MicroStrategy&#8217;s aggressive Bitcoin acquisition strategy has been the subject of intense media coverage in recent weeks. The company&#8217;s co-founder,&nbsp;Michael Saylor, recently revealed that MicroStrategy is making $500 million a day as Bitcoin <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42151809/michael-saylor-reveals-microstrategy-is-making-500m-a-day-with-bitcoin-may-very-well-be-the-most-profitable-company-in-the-us-growing-the-fastest-right-now">inched closer</a> to $100,000 for the first time in its history. 
Since the beginning of November, MicroStrategy&#8217;s stock has leaped 83%, while Bitcoin, the asset it holds on its books, has grown by 38%.
Price Action:&nbsp;At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $97,638.71, down 0.85% in the last 24 hours, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro data</a>. Shares of MicroStrategy closed 6.19% higher at $421.88 on Friday&#8217;s regular session.

Are MicroStrategy's Shares Worth Only $105? Investment Adviser Gary Black Weighs In

Wedbush Securities has issued an endorsement of the artificial intelligence software sector, with Managing Director Dan Ives predicting that 2025 will be a pivotal year for AI implementation across the industry. This comes as Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) continues its remarkable ascent, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42143996/daddys-home-palantir-creates-two-new-billionaires-after-trumps-win-both-own-less-than-2-stock-and-are-thiels-favorites">having surged 288% year-to-date</a>.
What Happened: In a notable sector-wide upgrade, Ives raised Palantir&#8217;s price target to $75 while upgrading both Elastic NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESTC#NYSE">ESTC</a>) and Snowflake Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNOW#NYSE">SNOW</a>) to Buy ratings. He also increased Salesforce Inc.&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) price target to $375, signaling broader confidence in the software sector&#8217;s AI potential.
&#8220;The AI Revolution is accelerating and now it&#8217;s the software sector that will benefit from the use case phase of AI set to be primetime in 2025,&#8221; Ives <a href="https://x.com/DivesTech/status/1860816966367281267">wrote</a>, adding, &#8220;Software AI age here.&#8221;
The bullish outlook aligns with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42094248/trumps-return-boosts-palantir-national-security-bets-drive-140-billion-market-cap">Palantir&#8217;s recent performance</a>, which has seen its market capitalization soar to approximately $140 billion, surpassing defense contractor Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>). The company&#8217;s growth has been particularly notable following recent political developments, with its stock reaching $61 per share.

Why It Matters: Palantir&#8217;s momentum is supported by concrete achievements, including a $480 million Pentagon contract for Project Maven and its first profitable year in 2023, reporting $144 million in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42094248/trumps-return-boosts-palantir-national-security-bets-drive-140-billion-market-cap">third-quarter net income</a>. 
The company has successfully expanded its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/24/11/42039361/palantir-soars-to-150b-market-cap-as-analysts-flag-risks-in-valuation-insider-sales">commercial sector revenue</a> to 35% of total earnings, securing major contracts with CVS Health Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVS#NYSE">CVS</a>) and BP plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BP#NYSE">BP</a>).
However, some investors express caution regarding valuations. Major hedge funds, including Renaissance Technologies and ARK Investment Management, reduced their Palantir <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/24/11/42039361/palantir-soars-to-150b-market-cap-as-analysts-flag-risks-in-valuation-insider-sales">holdings in the third quarter</a>, though maintaining significant positions. 
The company&#8217;s P/E ratio of 328.85 and heavy retail investor base of approximately 50% have prompted discussions about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42094248/trumps-return-boosts-palantir-national-security-bets-drive-140-billion-market-cap">potential market volatility</a>.
Price Action: Palantir&#8217;s stock closed at $64.35 on Friday, gaining 4.87% during the regular trading session. In after-hours trading, the stock dipped slightly by 0.20%. Year-to-date, Palantir has seen a remarkable surge of 288.12%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Palantir Price Target Raised To $75 By Dan Ives Amid 288% YTD Surge: Analyst Calls 2025 A 'Primetime' Year For AI

Tech mogul Elon Musk was amused by Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) sudden pullback following financial analyst Jim Cramer&#8217;s bullish take on the leading cryptocurrency.
What happened: In a recent X post, Musk reacted with a laughing face and 100% emoji in response to a satirical post on the "Inverse Cramer" phenomenon.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">&#x1f602;&#x1f4af; <a href="https://t.co/PzkLsmVFz7">https://t.co/PzkLsmVFz7</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The story started Friday when Cramer, host of CNBC's Mad Money show and a former hedge fund manager, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42144871/jim-cramer-says-own-bitcoin-thats-a-winner-crypto-community-scoffs-pack-up-your-bags-sell-everything">revealed owning Bitcoin</a> and called it a "clear winner."
Interestingly, Bitcoin, which was on the verge of reaching $100,000, retraced after Cramer&#8217;s advocacy and fell below $96,000 early Sunday.

Why It Matters: For the uninitiated, the "Inverse Cramer" phenomenon hinges on the belief that doing the opposite of what Cramer advises could lead to profits.
In fact, an exchange-traded fund (ETF) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/specialty-etfs/24/01/36793492/exclusive-inverse-cramer-etf-shuts-down-how-the-magnificent-7-stocks-factor-in-and-a-broken-c">was floated in 2022</a>, allowing investors to bet against Cramer's predictions. The ETF eventually shut down earlier this year.
Even influential cryptocurrency analysts like Ali Martinez wrote, "Another sell signal," reacting to Cramer's endorsement.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Another sell signal&#8230;<a href="https://t.co/YlJv9oPocw">pic.twitter.com/YlJv9oPocw</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
That said, there has been no definitive proof of counter-trading Cramer's predictions being a profitable strategy.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $97,556.56, down 1.03% 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>.&nbsp;

Elon Musk Has A Laugh As Bitcoin Dips After Jim Cramer's Endorsement

Following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41768178/donald-trump-defeats-kamala-harris-to-win-2024-election">2024 U.S. Presidential election</a>, a significant shift is happening in the social media landscape.&nbsp;
Many users, including Taylor Swift's fanbase, the Swifties, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41872302/taylor-swift-fans-abandon-elon-musks-x-for-bluesky-how-trumps-election-victory-triggered-swifties-uprising">have begun leaving</a> Elon Musk's X, formerly Twitter, for Bluesky, a rising social media platform.
In just a few days, Bluesky's user base surged from 14 million to 20 million, growing by a million new users each day.
This sudden influx follows dissatisfaction with Musk's social media platform, especially after the changes he introduced following the acquisition of Twitter, and now the 2024 election outcome.
Why Bluesky?
Bluesky offers a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/11/42039681/x-vs-threads-vs-bluesky-does-elon-musks-social-media-site-still-reign-supreme">refreshing alternative</a> to X and Meta Platforms, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) Threads.
Unlike Threads, which has minimized political content, Bluesky allows for more personalized, open conversations. Its open-source model, based on the AT Protocol, aims to empower users with greater control over their content and moderation.
With features like user-curated starter packs and decentralized governance, Bluesky has become a top choice for former X users looking for a platform that prioritizes user experience over corporate control.

Apple's 2024 Black Friday Deals: Gift Cards Over Discounts — Here's What You'll Get

Prominent economist Claudia Sahm has criticized the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/41927289/trump-appoints-elon-musk-and-vivek-ramaswamy-to-lead-doge-targeting-bureaucracy-and-65-trillion-federal-spending-we-will-not-go-gently">its leadership&#8217;s approach to government spending</a>, particularly regarding their stance on the U.S. Census Bureau&#8217;s 2010 Super Bowl advertisement.
What Happened: The controversy emerged after DOGE posted examples of government spending on X (formerly Twitter), including &#8220;$2.5 million on a Super Bowl Ad for the Census.&#8221; 
Former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, recently appointed as co-director of DOGE alongside Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk, responded that &#8220;the federal government shouldn&#8217;t be in the business of buying Super Bowl ads.&#8221;
Sahm, creator of the widely-referenced Sahm Rule indicator, countered Ramaswamy&#8217;s position, <a href="https://x.com/Claudia_Sahm/status/1860781540445163719">stating</a>, &#8220;Rule of thumb: the Census is in the Constitution. Do your legal job well.&#8221; She defended the Census Bureau&#8217;s decision, noting that the advertisement&#8217;s effectiveness could potentially save taxpayers money.
The Census Bureau had previously justified the $2.5 million expenditure, explaining that every 1% increase in mail-in responses would save $85 million in door-to-door collection costs.
Sahm expressed broader concerns about DOGE&#8217;s approach, stating, &#8220;There is so much good that &#8216;outside the box thinking&#8217; in the government could do… but it&#8217;s being wasted on destructive, simplistic thinking. DOGE is on track to be a wasted opportunity.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The economist also criticized DOGE&#8217;s focus on reducing resources and employees, arguing that some efficiency improvements would require additional investment. &#8220;A MASSIVE overhaul of the IT as one example would be huge,&#8221; she noted.
DOGE, announced by President-elect Donald Trump, aims to restructure federal agencies and reduce the government&#8217;s $6.5 trillion annual spending. 
The department has faced additional criticism from former Labor Secretary Robert Reich, who characterized it as &#8220;riddled with conflicts of interest,&#8221; particularly regarding Musk&#8217;s involvement given his companies&#8217; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/24/11/41962372/trumps-doge-with-musk-at-the-helm-riddled-with-conflicts-of-interest-says-clinton-era-official-robert-reich">federal contracts and ongoing investigations</a>.
The department is scheduled to complete its work by Jul 4, 2026, coinciding with America&#8217;s 250th independence anniversary.
DOGE&#8217;s acronym coincides with the cryptocurrency Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>), leading to a 30.79% price bump in the coin after the department's name was announced. Market speculation attributes this rise to Musk's known association with Dogecoin.

What Happened: The leading cryptocurrency fell below $96,000 during the afternoon, only to recover losses as the evening progressed.
On Friday, the asset nearly reached the record $100,000 level before stalling due to a strong pushback from the bears.
Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, failed to replicate its senior token&#8217;s comeback, ending the 24-hour period down by nearly 2%.
The sharp correction caused mayhem in the cryptocurrency derivatives market, with over $511 million getting liquidated in the last 24 hours. About $380 million in leveraged long bets were wiped out.
Bitcoin's Open Interest (OI) dropped marginally by 0.20%, while the number of short positions for the coin surged dramatically against longs in the last 24 hours.
Market sentiment remained in the "Extreme Greed" zone, as per the Cryptocurrency Fear and Greed Index, signaling a desire to buy more.

Analyst Notes: In a note to Benzinga, Chris Kline, COO and Co-Founder of BitcoinIRA, noted a significant interest in Bitcoin.
"Bitcoin appears to be crossing the Rubicon, garnering enthusiasm among those discussing economic policy at the national level, both in the US and across the globe," Kline said.
He also highlighted the elevation of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42028576/rfk-jr-stands-firm-on-bitcoin-as-currency-of-freedom-says-howard-lutnik-as-treasury-secretary-will-be-best-for-apex-crypto">Bitcoin proponents</a> to cabinet-level positions in the incoming Donald Trump administration, potentially making "murky regulatory waters" clear.
Widely-followed cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez predicted Bitcoin to peak between June and September 2025 in the ongoing bull cycle.
"Long-term Bitcoin holders are showing signs of growing greed! Historically, this behavior suggests it could take 8–11 months for BTC to hit a market top,&#8221; Martinez stated.

Bitcoin Recovers From $95K Dip, Ethereum, Dogecoin Fall Ahead Of Thanksgiving Holiday:  BTC Is 'Crossing The Rubicon,' Says Expert

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/41817396/suze-orman-warns-its-on-you-to-make-sure-you-have-the-right-coverage-for-2025-and-beyond-dont-re">Suze Orman&#8217;s</a> blog post outlines her advice for staying financially healthy this holiday season. It's worth listening to, especially with inflation still pinching wallets. Her message is simple: don't let holiday spending throw your finances off track, no matter how tempting it is to splurge on loved ones.&nbsp;

<li>Many are using this retirement income calculator 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 how on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</a></li>

</ul>
She says, &#8220;True generosity is when a gift is as kind to the giver as it is to the recipient.&#8221; In other words, if gift-giving means adding to your debt, it's time to rethink your approach.
One of her biggest warnings is about credit card debt, which is a massive issue right now. According to WalletHub, the average interest rate on credit cards is about 22%. Carrying a balance at that rate can quickly spiral into financial trouble.&nbsp;
Orman advises skipping gifts altogether if you can't pay off your card balance in full. The same goes for those Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services, which might look like a good deal but can lead to trouble if you miss payments. NerdWallet recently reported that about 37% of BNPL users pay late fees, which can snowball into even bigger expenses.

If you have high-interest debt, Orman suggests paying it down instead of spending on gifts. She encourages creative, low-cost gifting ideas for those on steadier financial ground.&nbsp;
Think of offering your time or talents – babysitting, helping with home projects or making something handmade. Orman and her wife KT only exchange homemade gifts, which she says are the most meaningful.
If pressured to meet social expectations, Orman suggests honest conversations with family and friends. "People who truly care for you will understand and support your decision to stand in financial truth," she says. A thoughtful conversation can relieve pressure and help others shift their priorities.
Trending: The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?
Orman offers a simple financial checkup to help you gauge your holiday spending readiness. Can you pay off your credit card bills in full each month? Do you have an<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40531988/you-dont-need-emergency-savings-says-grant-cardone-claims-that-three-months-of-savings-in-case-o"> emergency fund</a> that covers at least eight months of expenses? Are you consistently saving for retirement?&nbsp;
If you answered "no" to any of these, Orman advises holding back on discretionary spending. Instead, focus on small, manageable steps to improve your financial foundation – automating savings, tackling debt and sticking to a budget can make a difference.
The timing of Orman's advice couldn't be more relevant. Inflation remains stubborn and experts are still discussing the possibility of a recession.&nbsp;
According to a report by AP News, The National Retail Federation (NRF) forecasts that U.S. holiday sales in 2024 will increase by 2.5% to 3.5%, amounting to $979.5 billion to $989 billion. This growth rate is slower than the 3.9% increase in 2023 as many households tighten budgets.&nbsp;

파월 의장은 &#8220;정책이 조정될 때가 되었다&#8221;고 말했다.
향후 금리 인하에 대한 확신을 주는 이 메시지는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40530908/powells-rate-cut-signal-triggers-small-cap-rally-gold-makes-record-highs-dollar-tumbles-7-etfs-o" target="_blank" rel="noopener">금요일 장중 주식 시장</a>에서 금리에 가장 민감한 분야에서 강력한 반등을 촉발했다. 금요일에 가장 성과가 좋았던 산업 ETF는 지역 은행, 태양광 및 주택 건설업체였다.
추가 정보: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40532443/strong-economy-doesnt-justify-4-rate-cuts-this-year-how-about-3-what-experts-are-saying">강한 경제는 올해 4번의 금리 인하를 &#8216;정당화&#8217;하지 않는다: 3번은? 전문가들이 말하는 것</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1) 지역 은행</h2>
SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>)는 금요일 5.08% 급등 마감했다. 이는 2023년 12월 이후 가장 강력한 상승 폭이다.
특히, 141개 구성종목 모두 상승세를 보이며 지역 은행업계 전반에 걸쳐 광범위한 랠리를 펼쳤다.
이글 뱅코프(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EGBN#NYSE">EGBN</a>), 유나이티드 커뮤니티 뱅크(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UCB#NYSE">UCB</a>) 및 밸리 내셔널 뱅코프(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VLY#NYSE">VLY</a>)는 각각 10.67%, 4.18%, 8.28% 상승하여 가장 강력한 성과를 거두었다.
지역 은행들은 금리가 낮아지면 차입 비용이 낮아져 고객들의 대출 수요가 높아지기 때문에 혜택을 본다.
또한, 미국 지역 은행들은 특히 상업용 부동산의 부실 노출로 인한 스트레스 감소로부터 안도감을 찾을 수 있으며, 차입 비용이 감소하면 해당 기업들이 부채를 재융자하거나 사업에 투자하도록 장려하여 재정적 의무를 이행하는 능력이 향상될 수 있기 때문이다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2) 태양광</h2>
Invesco Solar ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAN#NYSE">TAN</a>)는 금요일 5.12% 급등하여 2024년 5월 말 이후 최고의 세션을 기록했다.
최고 상승세를 보인 기업들은 선노바 에너지 인터내셔널(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOVA#NASDAQ">NOVA</a>)와 솔라엣지 테크놀로지스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEDG#NASDAQ">SEDG</a>)로 각각 15.85%와 14.85% ​​급등했다.
태양광 기업들은 태양광 프로젝트의 개발 및 설치 자금을 조달하기 위해 상당한 초기 자본이 필요한 경우가 많다. 낮은 이자율은 차입 비용을 줄여 이들 회사가 프로젝트에 자금을 조달하는 것을 더 저렴하게 만든다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3) 주택 건설업체</h2>
iShares Home Construction ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ITB#NYSE">ITB</a>)는금요일 4.26% 상승해 새로운 최고치에 마감했다.
이 업계에서 가장 실적이 좋은 종목에는 빌더스 퍼스트소스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLDR#NYSE">BLDR</a>), 드림 파인더스 홈즈(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DFH#NYSE">DFH</a>) 및 아르하우스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARHS#NYSE">ARHS</a>)가 포함되어 있으며 모두 7% 이상의 의 상승을 기록했다.
보다 저렴한 주택 대출 금리와 낮은 금융 비용으로 인한 주택 수요 증가는 주택 건설 사업에 순풍을 불러일으킨다.

시장에서는 파월 의장의 발언을 9월 공개시장위원회 회의에서 첫 금리 인하의 신호로 해석했다. 그러나 파월 의장은 인하 규모나 향후 금리 궤적에 대해서는 아무런 언급도 하지 않았다.
파월은 최근 금리 급등으로 가장 부정적인 영향을 받은 기업들의 반전을 위한 길을 열었다. 시장은 이미 9월 금리 인하와 연말까지 85bp(베이시스 포인트) 인하를 완전히 반영했다.
"제롬 파월 연준 의장은 오늘 잭슨 홀 연설에서 비둘기파적인 입장을 취했다. 그는 헤지(hedge)하지 않았다. 그는 우리가 예상했던 것처럼 앞으로 몇 차례 금리 인하가 있을 것이라는 시장의 기대에 반하지 않았다"고 야데니 리서치(Yardeni Research)의 사장인 에드 야데니(Ed Yardeni)가 말했다.
뱅크 오브 아메리카(Bank of America)의 경제학자인 아딧야 바브(Aditya Bhave)는 &#8220;파월 연준 의장은 잭슨 홀에서 비둘기파적인 어조를 취하여 노동 시장에 대해 보다 선제적인 입장을 취하고 9월 금리 인하를 확정했다&#8221;고 말했다.
파월은 &#8220;노동 시장에 대해 비둘기파적인 어조를 냈으며 노동 시장 냉각에 대한 연준의 관용이 한계에 도달했으며 더 이상의 약화는 환영받지 못할 것&#8221;이라고 더욱 강력하게 강조했다&#8221;고 골드만삭스의 이코노미스트인 얀 하치우스(Jan Hatzius)가 말했다.
