월요일(21일) 금 가격이 사상 최고치로 급등했다. 금은 월요일 오전 11시 20분(동부표준시 기준) 온스당 2.5% 상승한 3,410달러로 상승했다. 이는 미국 금융자산에 대한 불신과 인플레이션 우려로 인해 2010년대 초 글로벌 부채 위기 이후 볼 수 없었던 안전자산으로의 도피가 이어지는 것을 의미한다.

금 가격의 강력한 상승세가 계속되고 있다. 목요일 금이 새로운 최고가를 경신한 것은 투자자들이 증가하는 무역 긴장과 경제적 불확실성으로부터 포트폴리오를 보호하려고 서두른 결과이다.
 SPDR 골드 트러스트(NYSE:GLD)가 추적하는 금 현물 가격은 동부 표준시 기준 오후 1시 55분에 온스당 2,979.76달러로 거래되었으며, 이는 1.6% 상승한 것으로, 세 번째 연속 상승세를 기록했다. 금속은 2025년까지 14% 급등하여 모든 주요 자산 클래스보다 높은 상승률을 보였다.

Bitcoin, the world's most valuable cryptocurrency, drove the moves of the broader cryptocurrency market in the first half of 2025, encountering historic highs and sharp corrections.&nbsp;While some investments were successful, others left a large hole in investors&#8217; portfolios.
What Happened: Spurred by the apex coin's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43079668/bitcoin-hits-record-109000-ahead-of-trumps-inauguration-sparks-market-rally">January peak</a>, the total cryptocurrency market capitalization hit $3.64 trillion. But macroeconomic fears, precipitated by President Donald Trump's tariff policies, turned things upside down. The market capitalization fell by 18.6% in the first quarter, ending March at $2.67 trillion.
Things worsened in the early part of the second quarter as Bitcoin tumbled below $75,000. However, with tariffs getting extended for three months and the administration forging deals with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/46113383/us-china-trade-deal-could-be-finalized-next-week-says-harvard-scholar-they-are-going-to-stabilize-this">key trade partners like China</a>, sentiment improved. The market capitalization soared 26% in the second quarter.

Among large-cap cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin was clearly the frontrunner, gaining over 15% since the year began. Solana also accumulated gains of over 7%.
However, leading coins like Ethereum, Dogecoin and XRP disappointed investors with negative returns.
The table below shows how much a $1000 investment in each of these coins at the start of the year would have grown to by the halfway point of 2025.

It is worth noting that Bitcoin&#8217;s dominance increased from 56% to 64%, while the market share of altcoins, excluding Ethereum, fell from 31% to 26% in the first six months. A high BTC dominance typically implies that investors are more confident in Bitcoin relative to other cryptocurrencies.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, the reading on the Crypto Fear and Greed <a href="https://alternative.me/crypto/fear-and-greed-index/">Index </a>was 66, indicating a &#8220;Greed&#8221; sentiment. Interestingly, the reading was similar at the beginning of the year.

President Donald Trump is expected to attend on Tuesday the opening of a temporary migrant detention facility in Florida&#8217;s Everglades, dubbed &#8220;Alligator Alcatraz.&#8221;
What Happened: The visit underscores Trump&#8217;s aggressive immigration enforcement strategy that has triggered market volatility for companies dependent on immigrant labor, Reuters reported, citing sources.
The remote detention center earned its nickname from its location deep in the Everglades, where alligators, crocodiles and pythons provide natural security barriers with minimal staffing requirements, according to Florida officials. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem requested Trump&#8217;s attendance at the facility opening.
Federal immigration detention numbers have surged 44% to 56,000 as of June 15, up from 39,000 when Trump took office in January. The administration has been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45943800/trump-orders-ice-to-launch-the-single-largest-mass-deportation-program-in-history-targeting-los-angeles-chicago-and-new-york">aggressively seeking additional detention capacity</a> to support what Trump calls &#8220;the single largest Mass Deportation Program in History.&#8221;
The White House did not immediately respond to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.

Why It Matters: Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations now arrest 2,000 immigration offenders daily, significantly exceeding the 311 daily average under former President Joe Biden. The intensified enforcement has disrupted business operations at major retailers, including The Home Depot Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>), where <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45943372/obama-calls-for-dignity-in-immigration-enforcement-as-ice-crackdown-escalates">federal raids targeted stores in California</a> without prior company notification.
Technology companies are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/44882049/peter-thiels-palantir-bags-30-million-order-from-ice-for-immigrant-tracking-system">capitalizing on enforcement efforts</a>. Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) secured a $29.8 million ICE contract for its ImmigrationOS tracking system, designed to monitor visa overstays and self-deportations with &#8220;near real-time visibility.&#8221;
The Trump administration has reactivated the World War II-era Alien Registration Act, requiring all non-citizens to register with the federal government after 75 years of non-enforcement. Officials <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45943372/obama-calls-for-dignity-in-immigration-enforcement-as-ice-crackdown-escalates">estimate 3.2 million immigrants</a> remain unregistered under the new regime.
Border apprehensions have plummeted to under 10,000 monthly from over 100,000 a year ago, according to government data. Despite this decline, Trump maintains his deportation agenda, with immigration chief Tom Homan <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45943800/trump-orders-ice-to-launch-the-single-largest-mass-deportation-program-in-history-targeting-los-angeles-chicago-and-new-york">confirming 200,000 deportations over four months</a>.

Trump To Visit 'Alligator Alcatraz' Migrant Detention Center This Week Amid Deportation Push: Report

French President Emmanuel Macron sharply criticized powerful nations using tariffs as &#8220;blackmail&#8221; instruments on Monday, delivering his strongest rebuke as the European Union scrambles to reach a deal with the United States before a looming July 9 deadline.
What Happened: Speaking at the International Conference on Financing for Development in Seville, Spain, Macron called trade wars an &#8220;aberration&#8221; without directly naming Trump or the United States. His comments came as EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen warned that &#8220;all options remain on the table&#8221; in ongoing negotiations with Washington.
According to Reuters, Macron said, &#8220;we need to restore freedom and equity to international trade, much more than barriers and tariffs, which are devised by the strongest, and which are often used as instruments of blackmail, not at all as instruments of rebalancing&#8221;
Trump unveiled sweeping global tariffs in April, threatening duties ranging from 10% to 50% on imports before partially reversing course with 90-day extensions. The current EU tariff structure includes 10% on most goods, 25% on automobiles, and 50% on steel and aluminum. Without a deal by July 9, all EU products could face 50% tariffs.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt rejected Macron&#8217;s characterization, calling tariffs &#8220;an effective tool to rebuild U.S. manufacturing.&#8221; She said Trump &#8220;is going to do what&#8217;s right for our people and our country,&#8221; according to the report.
Why It Matters: The tariff dispute has already roiled European markets. In May, when <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45585283/trump-tariff-threat-hits-europe-stocks-sink-as-50-duties-loom">Trump threatened</a> 50% EU duties, the Euro STOXX 50 dropped 3%, with major exporters taking heavy losses. Deutsche Bank AG (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DB#NYSE">DB</a>) fell 6.1%, while luxury brands like LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LVMUY#OTC">LVMUY</a>), which derives 25% of revenue from the U.S., faced significant pressure.
Technology ETFs with European exposure, including the iShares Europe ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IEV#NYSE">IEV</a>) and Vanguard FTSE Europe ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VGK#NYSE">VGK</a>), remain vulnerable to escalating trade tensions. German software giant SAP SE (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAP#NYSE">SAP</a>) generates 40% of revenue from North America, while Dutch chipmaker ASML Holding NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) earns 20-25% from U.S. sales.
The UN trade agency warned Trump&#8217;s tariffs could devastate developing nations, with countries like Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar facing some of the highest levies. Macron specifically criticized imposing tariffs on nations &#8220;just beginning their economic takeoff.&#8221;
Internal EU divisions complicate negotiations. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/46134994/eu-ready-for-a-deal-with-us-but-all-options-remain-on-the-table-says-von-der-leyen">German Chancellor</a> Friedrich Merz favors a swift, simple deal, while Macron argues that accepting imbalanced terms would undermine Europe&#8217;s long-term competitiveness. The French president previously urged European companies to suspend U.S. investments until clarity emerges.
EU officials have prepared a $108 billion <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/25/05/45591555/trump-targets-eu-apple-with-tariff-threats-etfs-could-feel-the-heat">retaliatory package</a> targeting U.S. digital services and financial systems, echoing 2018 countermeasures that hit swing-state exports including bourbon and motorcycles. Major U.S. tech companies like Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), and Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) faces regulatory scrutiny that could intensify amid trade tensions.
With eight days remaining before the deadline, both sides signal readiness to negotiate while maintaining hardline positions, setting up a high-stakes diplomatic and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46163327/trump-starmer-trade-deal-kicks-in-uk-luxury-cars-get-10-tariff-rolls-royce-engines-fly-duty-free-into-us">economic showdown</a>.

Emmanuel Macron Calls Tariffs 'Blackmail,'  White House Shoots Back Saying Trump Is 'Doing What's Right For Our People'

Billionaire investor Ray Dalio is sounding the alarm on what he calls an inevitable &#8220;debt/dollar crisis&#8221; unless U.S. policymakers confront the country's ballooning fiscal deficit with a mix of tax increases and spending cuts.
What Happened: On Monday, in a post on X, Dalio criticized popular political promises such as &#8220;I promise to not raise your taxes&#8221; and &#8220;I promise to not cut your benefits&#8221; as being fundamentally at odds with the current fiscal reality of the U.S. budget.
&#8220;There is no way that the deficit/debt bomb problem can be sustainably dealt with unless there is a mix of tax revenue increases and spending decreases that are determined in a bipartisan way,&#8221; the former hedge fund manager says.

Dalio proposes a 4% increase in tax revenue combined with a 4% cut in federal spending, a balanced approach that he says would help restore the balance between debt issuance and demand, leading to less pressure on interest rates, which in-turn helps support the markets and the economy, while helping shrink the deficit.
He says that both Democrats and Republicans in Washington understand this, but have been unwilling to act due to &#8220;absolutist&#8221; politics and fear of electoral backlash. &#8220;To me, that&#8217;s a tragedy,&#8221; he says.

</figure>
Why It Matters: The famed founder of Bridgewater Associates has constantly warned about the dangers of rising U.S. debt and the risk it poses to the economy and the U.S. Dollar. 
A month ago, he said that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/05/45512063/ray-dalio-warns-against-decreasing-value-of-us-dollar-amid-mounting-government-debt-risks-are-greater-than-the-rating-agencies-are-conveying">risks of mounting U.S. debt</a> were greater than what was being conveyed by the credit rating agencies. 
Others have since echoed similar views, with Ross Gerber, of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth and Investment Management, proposing to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/46112471/ross-gerber-touts-an-idea-to-cut-deficit-by-trillions-of-dollars-let-the-tax-cuts-expire-and-full-salt-come-back">let tax cuts expire</a> and restoring full State and Local Tax (SALT) deductions, to help slash the U.S. federal deficit by trillions of dollars.

&#8220;We&#8217;re in a system where the brakes are gone,&#8221; she says, adding that &#8220;raising interest rates only accelerates the federal deficit faster than it slows private borrowing.&#8221;

Ray Dalio Says Politicians That Promise Not To 'Raise Your Taxes' Not Aligned With Preventing A 'Big' Debt, Dollar Crisis: 'To Me, That's A Tragedy'

Financial market commentator Robert Kiyosaki said Monday he would continue to accumulate Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) despite finding it &#8220;expensive&#8221; at $107,000 apiece.
What Happened: In an X post,&nbsp;Kiyosaki, the acclaimed author of &#8220;Rich Dad Poor Dad&#8221;, shared his experience with the apex cryptocurrency. 
He admitted to entering the Bitcoin market &#8220;late,&#8221; purchasing his first coin at $6,000. Despite initially considering this price steep, Kiyosaki now wishes he had invested more at that rate. 
&#8220;Today Bitcoin is $107,000 a coin. Again my mind says &#8216;That's expensive&#8217; but I am buying more,&#8221; he said.
<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">WHAT IS EXPENSIVE? I was late into Bitcoin. I waited too long….which may have been a good thing. I waited because I did not understand today's modern money. So I bought my first Bitcoin at $6000 a coin. It was expensive. Today I wish I had bought more at $6000. Today…
&mdash; Robert Kiyosaki (@theRealKiyosaki) <a href="https://twitter.com/theRealKiyosaki/status/1939514749818925357?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 30, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The point he seemingly tried to convey is that what appears expensive today may be seen as cheaper in the future, a belief based on his conviction in Bitcoin&#8217;s long-term prospects.
&#8220;If and when Bitcoin's sells for $1 million a coin, I will once again be saying &#8216;I wish I had bought more,'&#8221; Kiyosaki said.
He encouraged others to invest, even if only in one Satoshi, stressing the value of accumulation rather than focusing on short-term price tags.

Why It Matters: Kiyosaki&#8217;s bullish stance on Bitcoin comes amid his warnings of a potential global monetary collapse. Last week, he predicted a global debt bubble burst and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/46045741/rich-dad-poor-dad-author-robert-kiyosaki-warns-of-global-debt-collapse-urges-buying-gold-silver-bitcoin">advised his followers</a> to invest in gold, silver and Bitcoin
While Kiyosaki is a staunch supporter of Bitcoin, his predictions should be taken with a grain of salt. Some of his past predictions were way off target.&nbsp;

'Rich Dad Poor Dad' Author Robert Kiyosaki Says Bitcoin At $107,000 Is 'Expensive' But He's Still Buying More

Billionaire and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk has renewed buzz of his political comeback amid criticism of U.S. President Donald Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill.
What Happened: "If this insane spending bill passes, the America Party will be formed the next day," Musk said in a post on social media platform X on Monday.
The billionaire then went on to say that America needs other political parties to serve as "an alternative to the Democrat-Republican uniparty," which would help Americans "actually have a VOICE," he said in the 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">If this insane spending bill passes, the America Party will be formed the next day. Our country needs an alternative to the Democrat-Republican uniparty so that the people actually have a VOICE.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Musk made a series of posts slamming the "insane spending" of the bill and outlined that the bill would increase the U.S. debt ceiling by $5 trillion. He also criticized the Republicans and Democrats by saying that America had only one party, "the porky pig party."
<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">It is obvious with the insane spending of this bill, which increases the debt ceiling by a record FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS that we live in a one-party country – the PORKY PIG PARTY!!

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Musk also slammed the politicians who were in support of the bill and said that they will lose their primaries next year, "if it is the last thing I do on this Earth," he said in a post on X.
<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">Every member of Congress who campaigned on reducing government spending and then immediately voted for the biggest debt increase in history should hang their head in shame!

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Why It Matters: The criticism follows the Senate Republicans&#8217; proposing a variety of spending cuts in the budget, including a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/46163659/senate-republicans-propose-313-billion-cut-in-medicaid-spending-in-trumps-big-beautiful-bill">$313 billion cut in Medicaid</a>.

The bill would also affect Tesla, as well as the automotive industry's EV push as a whole, as the proposals by both the Senate and the House Republicans axe the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45965638/amid-trumps-anti-ev-push-senate-republicans-propose-tax-bill-to-axe-7500-ev-credit">$7,500 federal EV credit</a> on all new EVs sold in the U.S.

Elon Musk Staging A Political Comeback? Tesla CEO Sparks 'America Party' Buzz As He Slams Trump's 'Insane Spending Bill'

Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46182769/what-happened-with-apple-stock-today">stock bump on Monday</a> shows just how eagerly investors are waiting for signs that the company is serious about artificial intelligence, according to Deepwater Asset Management's Gene Munster.
What Happened: Shares of Apple rose 2.03% on Monday — outperforming the broader Nasdaq — after a report emerged that the tech giant is exploring using large language models from OpenAI or Anthropic to power a revamped version of Siri by spring 2026.
Following this, Munster took to X, formerly Twitter, and said the "move is testimony to how low the investor AI bar is for AAPL."

Munster also said that &#8220;the iPhone bar is low.&#8221; Apple's biggest moneymaker is still the iPhone, but Wall Street analysts aren't expecting big growth: just 1% growth in iPhone sales in the financial year 25 and 4% the year after.
&#8220;The next few quarters should benefit from upgrades following that monster 39% iPhone growth in FY21,&#8221; he said.

Why It's Important: Wall Street has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45486193/why-is-apple-still-behind-on-ai-expert-dissects-reasons-behind-iphone-maker-lagging-likes-of-microsoft-and-amazon-despite-poaching-googles-ai-chief">been skeptical about Apple's AI strategy</a>, especially as competitors like 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, Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), aggressively push new AI features.
Reports have also surfaced suggesting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46041473/apple-eyes-perplexity-ai-acquisition-while-facing-shareholder-lawsuit-over-exaggerated-ai-progress-report">Apple was considering</a> a deal to acquire Perplexity AI. However, the startup says it has no information about any such discussions taking place.
Apple currently has a consensus price target of $231.44, based on the ratings from 32 analysts. The latest analyst ratings, from JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley and Wedbush, have an average price target of $245, indicating a potential upside of 19.26%.
Price Action: According to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>, Apple's stock is down 15.86% so far this year and has slipped 5.34% over the last 12 months.
Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings indicate that Apple's shares continue to trend lower across short, medium and long-term periods. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Additional performance details can be found here</a>.

Apple Investors Have Shockingly Low AI Expectations, Says Gene Munster — Siri Upgrade Rumors Alone Fueled A 2% Stock Jump

Lululemon Athletica Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>) filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) on Friday, alleging the warehouse retailer violated intellectual property rights by selling &#8220;knockoff&#8221; versions of its popular athletic wear.
What Happened: The Canada-based athleisure company accused Costco of selling unauthorized apparel that infringes on design patents for its ABC pants line, Define jacket collection, and Scuba zip-ups and hoodies, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/nexstar_media_wire/5377499-costco-accused-of-selling-knockoffs-of-popular-athleisure-brands-clothes-lawsuit/">reported</a> The Hill. Lululemon claims Costco &#8220;unlawfully traded upon Plaintiffs&#8217; reputation, goodwill and sweat equity&#8221; through these alleged knockoffs.
The lawsuit specifically targets items sold under Costco&#8217;s private-label Kirkland brand, suggesting the retailer may be intentionally confusing customers into believing Lululemon supplies the clothing. Lululemon seeks unspecified monetary damages and an injunction to halt the sale of the disputed products.
A Lululemon spokesperson told Reuters the company takes &#8220;the responsibility of protecting and enforcing our intellectual property rights very seriously.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The lawsuit comes as Costco faces investor scrutiny over recent performance metrics. The retailer reported $20.97 billion in May sales, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45801312/costco-stock-falls-nearly-4-after-may-sales-report-despite-solid-growth">up 6.8% year-over-year</a>, but shares fell nearly 4% after the announcement. U.S. comparable sales growth of 5.5% missed JPMorgan&#8217;s 7% estimate, marking a rare miss for the warehouse giant.
Costco <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/analyst-ratings/25/06/45981744/15-analysts-assess-costco-wholesale-what-you-need-to-know">operates over 600 U.S. warehouses</a>, holding more than a 60% market share in the domestic warehouse club industry. The company&#8217;s membership-based model relies on high-volume sales at thin margins, making private-label products crucial for profitability.
Recent analyst coverage <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/analyst-ratings/25/06/45981744/15-analysts-assess-costco-wholesale-what-you-need-to-know">shows 13 of 15 analysts</a> rate Costco as Outperform or Buy, with an average price target of $1,084.47.

Analyst Notes: Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez alerted bullish traders about Bitcoin's potential rejection, supported by a Stochastic RSI &#8220;death cross."
"A move back to $100,000 is possible unless we get a sustained close above $109,000," Martinez stated.
A death cross is a bearish chart pattern that occurs when a security&#8217;s short-term moving average drops below its longer-term moving average.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Slide Even As Q2 Turns Profitable For Crypto: Analyst Warns About Decline In BTC If The Apex Coin Doesn't Close Above This Level

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) says the biggest threat to U.S. capitalism isn't foreign competition but "three Wall Street investment firms," he claims, now dominate corporate America.
What Happened: "It's not only income and wealth inequality that bothers me, it's concentration of ownership," Sanders told Joe Rogan in a recent sit-down.
&#8220;In virtually every sector … you got a handful of giant multinationals controlling that sector." He urged listeners to &#8220;check it out on Google," adding that the trio of asset-management giants &#8220;combined are the major stockholders of 95% of American corporations.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">

"That's power," he exclaimed.
Academic studies back part but not all of Sanders' claim. Research by economists Jan Fichtner and others <a href="https://business.gmu.edu/news/2025-02/power-passive-investors-double-edged-sword">finds</a> the "Big Three" are the largest single shareholders in about 40% of all U.S.–listed companies and 88% of the S&amp;P 500. Other analysts put their combined stake at nearly 20% of total U.S. market capitalization, not 95%.

Sanders argues concentrated shareholding lets a handful of executives steer wages, prices and even politics. "They are now owned by Wall Street firms," he said, contrasting today's dispersed retail ownership with the era when "somebody actually owned General Motors."
Why It Matters: Sanders, during the course of the same podcast, also told Joe Rogan that his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46106134/bernie-sanders-shares-first-thing-he-would-do-as-president-and-it-could-be-a-jab-at-elon-musk">top presidential priority</a> would be campaign-finance reform. He wants public funding to replace "billionaires" bankrolling elections, which he says "rejects the will of the American people."
Rogan and Sanders also attacked the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/25/06/46109126/the-minimum-wage-in-this-country-is-ridiculous-says-joe-rogan-asks-how-do-you-live-off-7">$7.25 federal minimum wage</a>, calling it impossible to live on; Sanders noted he is fighting to raise it to $17 an hour. Rogan illustrated the problem with a $25 sandwich that would cost a minimum-wage worker 3½ hours of labor.
Both men argued that technology's gains have bypassed workers, with Sanders pointing out real wages trail those of 52 years ago despite soaring productivity. To spread the benefits of automation and AI, Sanders champions his "Thirty-Two Hour Workweek Act," <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46089330/bernie-sanders-slams-job-cuts-says-ai-should-give-workers-more-time-off-instead-of-throwing-you-out-on-the-street">trimming the workweek</a> without cutting pay so people gain time for family, learning and purpose.

Bernie Sanders Warns Of 'Concentration of Ownership' In US Companies: 'That's Power'

On Monday, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent responded to a question on whether he was willing to replace Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve chair.
What Happened: &#8220;I will do what the President wants,&#8221; Bessent said in an interview with Bloomberg TV on Monday, when asked about the likelihood of him heading the Central Bank after Powell&#8217;s term ends in May 2026.
He said, &#8220;I think I have the best job in D.C.,&#8221; pointing to the ongoing momentum within his department surrounding tax cuts, trade deals and major economic policies, while acknowledging that the administration was actively weighing options for Powell&#8217;s replacement.

According to Bessent, an announcement on this could come as early as October or November, while he also highlights an upcoming vacancy on the Federal Reserve Board in January, suggesting that it could play into the succession plan.
&#8220;There's a seat opening up, a 14-year seat opening up in January,&#8221; Bessent said. &#8220;So we've given thought to the idea that perhaps that person would go on to become the chair when Jay Powell leaves in May.&#8221;
When asked about the appointment of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/46131630/trump-appointing-a-shadow-chair-at-the-fed-has-put-dollar-under-pressure-meanwhile-china-is-dumping-the-greenback-and-hoarding-gold">a &#8220;Shadow Chair&#8221;</a> ahead of Powell&#8217;s departure, Bessent played down the concerns, replying, &#8220;Not necessarily. We&#8217;ll see.&#8221;
Why It Matters: Tensions have been flaring between Trump and Powell for the past several months, leading to growing concerns regarding <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44999600/feds-independence-could-disappear-in-a-week-says-economist-ken-rogoff-as-trump-thinks-hes-smarter-th">the Fed&#8217;s independence</a>.
Early this week, Trump once again called Powell a &#8220;stupid person&#8221; and &#8220;a bad person&#8221; for keeping interest rates &#8220;artificially high,&#8221; while arguing that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46165110/donald-trump-calls-fed-chair-jerome-powell-a-bad-person-who-keeps-rates-artificially-high-says-benchmark-should-drop-by-half">benchmarks should drop</a> to &#8220;1% or 2%.&#8221;
Trump further proposed a &#8220;bills over bonds&#8221; approach to dealing with the high interest rates on long-term debt, which involves the Treasury issuing more short-term debt at low interest rates, over longer duration bonds. 
This received quick <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46163670/trumps-bills-over-bonds-strategy-can-spell-doom-for-the-dollar-warns-craig-shapiro-got-gold-bitcoin">pushback from macro experts</a> such as Craig Shapiro, who say that such a move could spell doom for the U.S. Dollar.
Economist Nouriel Roubini has criticized Trump&#8217;s <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44941184/roubini-trump-wants-a-rate-cutbut-powells-restraint-is-the-only-thing-saving-him-from-a-market-meltdown?_gl=1&#x2A;1yhww1y&#x2A;_gcl_au&#x2A;OTU0MzA1MzE4LjE3NDcwMTIxNDM.&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;ZGVsZXRlZA..&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;czE3NTEzMzUyMTUkbzI3MyRnMSR0MTc1MTMzNTkzNiRqMTEkbDAkaDA.">attacks against Powell</a>, calling it &#8220;a repeated own goal,&#8221; since even if he got his way, it would only lead to higher bond yields, owing to the &#8220;de-anchoring of inflation expectations.&#8221;
Price Action: The 10-Year Treasury notes trade at 4.216%, the 30-Year at 4.759%, and the 2-Year at 3.721%. The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) continues to test newer lows, trading at 96.774, down 11.57% since the beginning of Trump&#8217;s second term.

Scott Bessent On Replacing Powell As Fed Chair: 'I Will Do What The President Wants' — Plays Down Shadow Chair Speculations

On Monday, Jesus "Jay" Malave was officially announced as Boeing Co.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/46182764/boeing-announces-cfo-transition-shares-volatile-after-hours">incoming Chief Financial Officer</a>, succeeding Brian West.
With an impressive background in finance and leadership across major aerospace and defense companies, Malave brings a wealth of experience to the aerospace giant.
Here are some key facts about the man now overseeing Boeing&#8217;s financial strategy.
Background
Malave was born to Puerto Rican immigrants in Hartford, Connecticut. His father served as a U.S. Postal Service supervisor and his mother worked as a nutritionist at a local hospital. Growing up in Newington, a small town with a blend of blue-collar and white-collar families, Malave <a href="https://www.ctinsider.com/business/article/CT-native-leads-finances-for-Lockheed-Martin-17457260.php">shared</a> with CT Insider in 2022 that he developed a strong appreciation for diversity and hard work from an early age.

Personal Life
After graduating, Malave met his future wife, Janine, that summer as she was pursuing a career in education. Janine would later become a teacher and department head at Maloney High School in Meriden. The couple married in 1994 in Windsor, where Janine grew up.
Education
Malave attended the University of Connecticut, where he started with engineering but later switched to mathematics, earning his Bachelor&#8217;s degree in 1991. He furthered his education with a Master's in Accounting from the University of Hartford, later adding a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Connecticut School of Law.
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.
Professional Life
Malave's career began with the U.S. Department of Labor, where he investigated Equal Employment Opportunity cases. At the time, United Technologies owned major companies like Pratt &amp; Whitney, Sikorsky, Hamilton Standard, Carrier and Otis.
Malave told the publication that after noticing his work at the Department of Labor, UTC approached him with a human resources position, offering the chance to transition into accounting or finance after a year. Pratt &amp; Whitney quickly presented him with an entry-level job handling expenses and cash. He worked his way up, eventually becoming CFO of UTC Aerospace Systems.
His next big leap came when he joined L3Harris Technologies in July 2019 and later Lockheed Martin in January 2022. In both companies, he held the role of chief financial officer.
In addition to his extensive executive roles across major aerospace and defense companies, Malave also serves on the Board of Directors for GE Vernova
Now Boeing
On Aug. 15, 2025, Malave will transition to Boeing as the company&#8217;s new CFO. Malave takes the reins at a time when Boeing is navigating global challenges and seeking to strengthen its position in the aerospace market.
The news of his appointment followed a 2.34% drop in Boeing's shares during Monday's regular trading session, after reports surfaced that U.K. antitrust authorities have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/46180869/whats-going-on-with-boeing-shares-today-5">officially opened an investigation</a> into the company's proposed $4.7 billion takeover of fuselage manufacturer Spirit AeroSystems.
Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings indicate that Boeing shares remain on an upward trajectory across short, medium and long-term timeframes. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">More in-depth performance details are available here</a>.

Robinhood, Apple, Oracle, Plug Power And Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Macro strategist Raoul Pal commended Robinhood Markets&#8216; (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) decision to launch tokenized stock offerings on Monday, describing it as &#8220;democratization of finance.&#8221;
What happened: In an X post, Pal was reacting to a video of Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev introducing the so-called "stock tokens," which will allow users in Europe to gain exposure to U.S. private companies such as SpaceX and OpenAI.
"The end of public vs. private markets is beginning. Capital formation too is more efficient in crypto markets. Lending markets too," Pal said.&nbsp;
The former Goldman Sachs executive deemed it as &#8220;democratization of finance&#8221; and predicted that the trend would only accelerate from here.
