ViaSat Lands Deal With Riyadh Air To Deliver In-Flight Wi-Fi And Entertainment

Billionaire investor and the founder of Bridgewater Associates, Ray Dalio, has issued a warning about the economic ripples of escalating tariffs. In a recent analysis, Dalio dissects the &#8220;tariff machine,&#8221; revealing its impact on global markets and highlighting the potential for &#8220;abrupt, unconventional changes.&#8221;
What Happened: Dalio&#8217;s <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/effects-tariffs-how-machine-works-ray-dalio-vg96e/?trackingId=D2tOKBq4SNm%2BjsGvFMeldA%3D%3D">analysis</a> highlights the &#8220;first-order&#8221; effects of tariffs but goes on to explain how the &#8220;second-order&#8221; effects are where the true market volatility lies. However, he conveys that despite "abrupt, unconventional changes" in the global markets and economies, the production, trade, and capital imbalances will ultimately come down. 
He emphasizes that the U.S. dollar&#8217;s reserve currency status, while advantageous, will contribute to these imbalances, adding another layer of complexity. However, the long-term stability of markets will depend on trust in debt quality, national productivity, and sound political systems.
Overall, he explains that "non-market, non-economic adjustments would have unique and challenging impacts on the countries they apply to."
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44622754/tariffs-are-most-expensive-and-masochistic-could-cost-30-trillion-to-the-economy-erasing-300k-per-family-explains">Trump Tariffs Could Cost $30 Trillion Or About $300,000 Per Family, Says Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers: &#8216;Most Expensive And Masochistic&#8217;</a>
Why It Matters: The first order effects of tariffs, which he describes as "taxes," lead to;
<ul>
<li>Revenue Generation: Tariffs create tax revenue for the imposing country, paid by both foreign producers and domestic consumers, making them a potentially attractive fiscal tool.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Reduced Global Efficiency: Tariffs decrease the overall efficiency of global production and trade.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Stagflationary Impact: Tariffs contribute to global stagflation, with deflationary effects on the tariffed producer and inflationary effects on the importing country.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Domestic Market Protection: Tariffs shield domestic companies from foreign competition, potentially reducing their efficiency but increasing their survival chances when domestic demand is supported.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Strategic Necessity: In times of international conflict, tariffs are essential for ensuring domestic production capabilities.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Dependency Reduction: Tariffs can mitigate current account and capital account imbalances by lessening reliance on foreign production and capital, crucial during geopolitical tensions.</li>
</ul>
Dalio explains that these first-order effects don't determine the impact on the economies of the tariffing and tariffed nations, as it is contingent on the retaliatory tariff actions of affected nations. The resulting currency rate fluctuations and the adaptive monetary and fiscal policy responses of central banks and governments determine the real economic impact.
The second-order effects of tariffs include;
<ul>
<li>Reciprocal Tariffs Amplify Stagflation: Retaliatory tariffs from affected countries lead to widespread stagflationary pressures.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Monetary Policy Adjustments: Central banks respond to deflationary pressures by easing monetary policy, weakening currency, and lowering real interest rates, and conversely, tighten policy to strengthen currency and raise rates in inflationary environments.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Fiscal Policy Changes: Governments adjust fiscal policies, easing spending during disinflation and tightening during inflation, to mitigate the economic impacts of tariffs.</li>
</ul>
Daalio's View: "So there are a lot of moving parts and there is a lot to measure in order to judge the market impacts of big tariffs. These impacts go beyond the first six first points I made about the first order effects of tariffs, which are influenced by the second order effects I referred to," stated Dalio.
Another billionaire investor, Bill Ackman, the CEO of Pershing Square, stated in a X post that countries should accelerate making deals with the U.S. and refrain from retaliating. However, Dalio's analysis highlights how tariffs will likely impact the global supply chains, economies, and markets, which would make the negotiations much more complex.

Mozilla is expanding its Thunderbird email client into a full-fledged communications platform, launching Thundermail and Thunderbird Pro to compete directly with Gmail by Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google and Microsoft Corp.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) subscription service, Microsoft 365.
What Happened: On Wednesday, Mozilla announced the overhaul of Thunderbird Pro, which includes Thunderbird Appointment, a scheduling tool for sharing calendar links; Thunderbird Send, a revival of the discontinued Firefox Send; and Thunderbird Assist, an AI-powered writing assistant developed with Flower AI.
Unlike traditional services, Thunderbird Pro underscores local AI processing to ensure privacy.&nbsp;

The company is also launching Thundermail, which will use the open-source Stalwart stack and allow users to choose between thundermail.com and tb.pro domains for email hosting.
&#8220;Heading to thundermail.com, you will see a signup page for the beta waitlist. Please add your name to it,&#8221; said Ryan Sipes, Managing Director, Product Thunderbird.
Will It Be Free? No. Initially, Mozilla will charge for these services, especially features like Thunderbird Send (since storage is expensive). The service will be available for free to select contributors. However, once they have a stable user base, the company plans to introduce free tiers with limitations (e.g., reduced storage).
Subscribe to the&nbsp;<a href="https://bztechtrends.beehiiv.com/subscribe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Tech Trends newsletter</a>&nbsp;to get all the latest tech developments delivered to your inbox.
Why It Matters: Thunderbird has been losing users over time—its active monthly installs have dropped from 17.7 million in 2020 to 16.2 million in 2025.
By adding Thundermail and new paid features, Mozilla hopes to build a sustainable business model and attract users who value privacy, transparency, and open-source software.
&#8220;Thunderbird loses users each day to rich ecosystems that are both clients and services, such as Gmail and Office365,&#8221; stated Sipes, adding, &#8220;It is our goal to eventually have a similar offering so that a 100% open source, freedom-respecting alternative ecosystem is available for those who want it.&#8221;

Mozilla's Thunderbird Evolves With Thundermail And Pro Features To Compete With Gmail, Microsoft 365 In The Email Wars

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk has denied rumors of his premature departure from the Donald Trump administration. This comes despite his recent unpopularity influencing a state supreme court race.
What Happened: Musk dismissed circulating reports that he was preparing to leave his role as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in the Trump administration.
Meanwhile, the White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt called the reports &#8220;garbage&#8221; while confirming that Musk would &#8220;depart&nbsp;from public service as a&nbsp;special government employee when his&nbsp;incredible work&#8230; is complete&#8221;.
Musk responded to the post by Leavitt and wrote, &#8220;Yeah, fake news&#8221;.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="598" height="238" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/03055919/image-1-9.png" alt="" class="wp-image-854957" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/03055919/image-1-9.png 598w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/03055919/image-1-9-300x119.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px" /></figure>
Musk expressed confidence in a recent interview at Fox News with Bret Baier that he would achieve most of his goal of cutting $1 trillion in federal spending by the end of his 130 days. However, in another Fox Business interview when host, Larry Kudlow asked if he is going to continue another year, Musk answered, &#8220;Yeah, I think so.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Speculation about Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/44611347/is-elon-musk-leaving-doge-role-trump-tells-cabinet-move-could-happen-soon-report">returning to the private sector</a> boosted shares of Tesla. Despite an initial 6% drop due to weak Q1 deliveries, Tesla&#8217;s stock unexpectedly rebounded by Wednesday afternoon.
The reports of Musk&#8217;s exit came on the heels of the Republican candidate, Brad Schimel, losing the Wisconsin Supreme Court election to Democrat candidate, Susan Crawford.
Elon Musk spent over $25 million on a Wisconsin judicial race, claiming it was crucial for civilization's future. He used a strategy from last year's election, offering voters $100 to sign a petition and personally handing out $1 million checks to some signatories. Anticipating defeat, he acknowledged last month that unseating a liberal candidate would be challenging due to higher Democratic voter enthusiasm.
However, his blunt approach to mass layoffs from the government workforce, resulting in nearly 200,000 employees being fired, earmarked for termination, or accepting buyouts, has stirred unease across the U.S.
Republican lawmakers are facing backlash at chaotic town halls, Doge&#8217;s initiatives are facing lawsuits, Tesla dealerships have been vandalized, and a nationwide protest against Doge and Trump&#8217;s agenda is planned for Saturday.
Tesla climbed 5.33% on Wednesday to close at $282.76 on Wednesday.

U.S. stock futures plummeted on Thursday after advancing on Wednesday. Futures of major benchmark indices were down over 2-3% in premarket trading.
Invoking a 1977 law, President Donald Trump declared a trade emergency Wednesday, arguing it was necessary to address the U.S.&#8217;s "large and persistent trade deficit." The White House <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44621408/market-access-has-a-price-trump-unveils-list-of-tariffs-countries-targeted">released a fact sheet</a> outlining the new reciprocal tariffs, which Trump justified with the principle, "Treat us like we treat you." 
While Canada and Mexico were notably excluded from the tariff program, China, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Sri Lanka face the steepest increases under the new system. Gold prices soared to a fresh record of $3,167.71 per ounce, and investors fled toward safe-haven assets.
The 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.06% and the two-year bond was at 3.78%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool </a>shows markets pricing in a 76.7% likelihood of the Federal Reserve maintaining current interest rates through its May meeting.

Cues From Last Session:
Consumer discretionary, industrials, and financials led a broad S&amp;P 500 rally Wednesday, pushing the Dow Jones over 200 points, despite President Trump&#8217;s later announcement of trade tariffs.
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) surged 5%, even after reporting weak delivery numbers. Contrary to the market&#8217;s upward trend, consumer staples closed lower.
Positive economic data, showing stronger-than-expected job growth and rising manufacturing orders, contributed to the day&#8217;s gains, though Trump&#8217;s trade actions sparked fears of a potential economic downturn.

Insights From Analysts:
Senior economist Jeremy Siegel, in his weekly commentary, explained that the public is more willing to endure the near-term friction and economic headwinds from the cuts to inefficient government spending rather than "facing higher prices via tariffs, which bring near-term pain with very uncertain long-term benefit."
He said, "Dividend-paying value stocks look increasingly attractive, and I expect the market rotation from growth to dividend stocks to continue."
"Equity weakness has been widespread. The rotation out of growth continues, and the AI-led rally that defined the market over the last three years has decisively broken trend. Growth stocks have taken a larger hit than value stocks," he added.
Meanwhile, other analysts opined with their views on the tariffs. Wedbush&#8217;s Daniel Ives said, &#8220;We would characterize this slate of tariffs as ‘worse than the worst case scenario&#8217; the Street was fearing.&#8221;

Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers said on Thursday that President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariffs will cause an &#8220;oil crisis-like shock&#8221; to the economy, simultaneously spiking prices and unemployment while shrinking productive capacity.
What Happened: Summers <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-02/summers-says-trump-tariffs-to-impose-oil-shock-type-economic-hit">told</a> Bloomberg Television that the tariffs should be seen as &#8220;a supply shock,&#8221; comparable to &#8220;an oil-price spike or earthquake or a drought,&#8221; with significant economic consequences.
Potential economic losses, according to Summers, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44622754/tariffs-are-most-expensive-and-masochistic-could-cost-30-trillion-to-the-economy-erasing-300k-per-family-explains">may amount to $30 trillion</a>, or significantly more than $300,000 for a household of four people.
The &#8220;reciprocal&#8221; duties, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44620686/sp-500-nasdaq-futures-plunge-over-3-as-trumps-reciprocal-tariff-plan-hits-market-confidence">go into effect on Apr. 9</a>, are half of what Trump says trading partners charge for American goods. The countries with the biggest duty rises include Sri Lanka (44%), Vietnam (46%), and China (34%).

Why It Matters: The world&#8217;s markets responded quickly to what Trump referred to as &#8220;our Declaration of Economic Independence&#8221; and &#8220;Liberation Day.&#8221; Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by around 830 points as U.S. futures fell.
The &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; tech stocks bore the brunt, facing a projected $685 billion combined market value loss. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44620686/sp-500-nasdaq-futures-plunge-over-3-as-trumps-reciprocal-tariff-plan-hits-market-confidence">led declines, dropping 7.14%</a>.
Summers cited past analysis showing nearly a &#8220;dollar-for-dollar&#8221; impact on consumer prices from Trump&#8217;s first-term tariffs. &#8220;The proximate effect will be to boost prices, with effects then rippling out to include less employment and reduced investment,&#8221; he said. &#8220;This is a classic supply shock that puts the Federal Reserve in a very difficult position.&#8221;
Condemning the measure as &#8220;typical unilateral bullying,&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44620889/trumps-liberation-day-tariffs-roil-markets-as-china-slams-typical-unilateral-bullying-asian-markets-plunge">China threatened to take retaliatory action</a>. The Nikkei 225 in Japan dropped 2.95% on Thursday as Asian markets declined.

Larry Summers Warns Trump's Tariffs Will Deliver 'Oil Crisis-Like Shock,' Slash $30 Trillion From Economy As Markets Plunge

Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google is looking to increase its AI and computing resources to support its growing range of applications.
With Nvidia Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) latest generation Blackwell GPUs seeing massive order backlogs and wait times as high as 12 months, the company is resorting to other solutions to overcome this bottleneck.

What Happened: According to reports <a href="https://www.theinformation.com/articles/google-advanced-talks-rent-nvidia-ai-servers-coreweave">from</a> The Information, Google is in talks with the recently listed CoreWeave Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) to rent the latter&#8217;s Nvidia servers, which are equipped with the latest generation Blackwell chips.
Additionally, the search giant might also rent space in CoreWeave&#8217;s data centers to install its own Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) chips, which were <a href="https://benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/02/43570410/broadcoms-trillion-dollar-run-analyst-expects-asic-to-take-10-15-market-share-backed-by-ai-compute-demand">made in collaboration with Broadcom Inc.</a> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>).
CoreWeave, which was listed on the Nasdaq late last week, is up 53% from its offer price of $40, owing to its multi-billion dollar deals with several heavy-hitters in the AI space. Currently, Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) accounts for 60% of the company&#8217;s $1.9 billion in annual revenue, but it is quickly diversifying.
In addition to its talks with Google, CoreWeave recently signed a 5-year deal with OpenAI worth $12 billion for its growing AI infrastructure needs. 
Why It Matters: Whether it is Google, Nvidia&#8217;s backlogs, or <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44601565/coreweave-surges-42-in-post-ipo-rally-as-nvidia-backed-ai-firm-recovers-from-weak-debut">CoreWeave&#8217;s rally</a>, they all point to the same thing &#8211; the unrelenting demand for AI computing, which is only set to grow by leaps and bounds.
While Google and Nvidia are both down 17% and 20% year-to-date, owing to high valuations and turmoil surrounding tariffs, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang did not hesitate when saying that reasoning models will require at least 100 times more computing power than the current generation models that power the likes of ChatGPT.
In other words, we&#8217;ve barely scratched the surface in terms of AI infrastructure demand, with plenty more growth to be had across all these stocks.

Following a weak debut, Coreweave started rallying this week, and according to Benzinga&#8217;s Edge Stock Rankings, it is set to see strong price trends in the short, medium, and long terms.
