Despite a more uncertain outlook, the Company has made no changes to its investment plans or capital return priorities. Capex in 2025 is projected to be within the range of $4.5-$5.0 billion, including $1.4-$1.5 billion on our strategic growth projects and $0.3-$0.4 billion on projects related to decarbonization. The outlook for free cash flow remains positive in 2025 and beyond; cash flow in 2025 is expected to be supported by working capital optimization; and the completion of the Company's strategic growth projects is expected to support structurally higher EBITDA and investable cash flow in the coming periods. Given this positive outlook, and in line with its defined capital return policy, the Company has initiated a new long-term share buyback program, with the first tranche of 10 million shares commencing on April 7, 2025.

Mark Zuckerberg says America's edge in artificial intelligence could erode unless it matches China's rapid build-out of data-center power and factory-scale hardware. 
What Happened: Speaking on the Dwarkesh Podcast, the billionaire founder warned that "the U.S. really needs to focus on streamlining the ability to build data centers and produce energy. Otherwise, we'll be at a significant disadvantage."
Zuckerberg's comments came during a comparison of Meta's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44661561/mark-zuckerbergs-meta-unveils-latest-llama-4-ai-models-to-challenge-openais-chatgpt-4-and-googles-gemini">newly announced</a> Llama 4 family with Huangzhou-based DeepSeek's R1. This open-source model <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/04/44932492/is-deepseeks-threat-overrated-a-comprehensive-analysis">stunned researchers</a> this spring by rivaling larger Western systems despite running on export-restricted chips.

China, he noted, compensates for U.S. curbs on high-end Nvidia processors by pouring engineers into low-level code tweaks. "DeepSeek basically had to spend a bunch of their calories doing infrastructure optimizations that the American labs didn't have to do," he said.
Those workarounds produced strong text performance, but at a cost, Zuckerberg argued: R1 remains text-only, while Llama 4 is multimodal, handling images and voice. "We're basically in the same ballpark on all the text stuff … but with a smaller model, so the cost-per-intelligence is lower," he said. "On the multimodal side we're effectively leading."
Why It Matters: Zuckerberg&#8217;s comments highlight how Washington's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/42897081/nvidia-and-ai-chip-stocks-brace-for-impact-as-biden-administration-considers-new-china-export-ban-report">chip export controls</a> are reshaping the AI race. While the rules slow Chinese access to cutting-edge silicon, they also spur aggressive investments in domestic power generation and cloud capacity — a drive Zuckerberg says U.S. regulators must match to keep pace.
Meanwhile, Bernstein analysts believe banning Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips won't stop China's artificial intelligence development, who suggest the export restrictions <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44971572/nvidia-chip-ban-wont-stop-chinas-ai-momentum-say-analysts-blocking-h20-would-hand-market-to-huawei-amid-trump-era-export-crackdown">could instead strengthen</a> the likes of Huawei Technologies.

According to Reuters, the chip matches Nvidia's H100 performance by integrating two 910B processors into a single package.

The Donald Trump administration is reportedly considering sweeping changes to Joe Biden-era restrictions on AI chip exports.
What Happened: Trump officials are weighing a significant overhaul of the Framework for Artificial Intelligence Diffusion, a rule issued in January by the U.S. Commerce Department under former President Joe Biden, reported Reuters on Tuesday, citing three sources familiar with the matter.
The rule currently splits the world into three tiers to determine how many advanced AI chips countries can access. Tier 1 nations, including 17 allies and Taiwan, have unlimited access. Tier 2 countries—about 120 in total—face caps, while Tier 3 nations like China, Russia and North Korea are completely blocked.
As per the report, the Trump administration is considering replacing this tiered structure with a global licensing regime, which would rely on individual government-to-government agreements to manage chip exports.&nbsp;

"There are some voices pushing for elimination of the tiers," said former Commerce Secretary under Trump, Wilbur Ross, on Tuesday. "I think it's still a work in progress."
Another change under discussion includes lowering the exemption threshold for chip orders. Currently, purchases under the equivalent of 1,700 Nvidia Corporation's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) H100 chips don't require a license—only notification.
The Trump team is reportedly considering cutting that threshold to 500.
Why It's Important: Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick previously signaled openness to using export controls in trade negotiations, aligning with Trump's broader foreign policy strategy of leveraging U.S. assets in bilateral deals.
Earlier this week, Zhao Chenxin, vice chairman of China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), said he is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45033463/as-china-downplays-trump-tariffs-with-5-growth-target-top-economist-warns-of-90-chance-of-a-us-recession-amid-trade-war">"fully confident" that they will achieve</a> their 5% growth target for 2025, despite increasing economic headwinds and analyst warnings of a potential slowdown.
Meanwhile, Torsten Slok, chief economist at Apollo Global Management, an American asset management fund, has estimated a "90% chance" of recession if current tariff levels persist—echoing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/45090231/elon-musk-says-will-come-as-a-surprise-to-most-as-chinas-economy-surpasses-us-and-eu-amid-rising-tariffs-and-growing-recession-fears">growing concerns among global</a> financial experts.

Trump Administration Targets Biden-Era AI Chip Curbs, Could Scrap Country Tiers And Tighten Access To Nvidia's H100 Chips: Report

Economist Peter Schiff criticized President Donald Trump on Tuesday for reportedly pressuring Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) founder Jeff Bezos to abandon plans that would show consumers the cost of tariffs on product prices.
What Happened: &#8220;Apparently, Trump called Bezos personally to &#8216;convince&#8217; him not to honestly inform consumers about the taxes they&#8217;re paying when they buy goods on Amazon,&#8221; Schiff wrote on X. &#8220;I don&#8217;t like this at all. This is the type of stuff you might expect to see in China, our supposed enemy in the trade war.&#8221;
Schiff defended Amazon&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/45086459/amazon-pressures-suppliers-for-discounts-may-show-tariff-related-costs-on-haul-site">reported consideration to display tariff costs</a>, arguing that &#8220;consumers have a right to know how much tax they are paying&#8221; and questioning the White House&#8217;s characterization of such transparency as a &#8220;hostile and political act.&#8221;

The controversy emerged after reports that Amazon might <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/45086459/amazon-pressures-suppliers-for-discounts-may-show-tariff-related-costs-on-haul-site">display tariff costs next to product prices</a>. While Amazon denied plans for its main site, the company acknowledged considering the idea for its Haul website, which sells items under $20.

Why It Matters: Trump, who has imposed tariffs of up to 145% on Chinese imports and a 10% minimum tax on goods from other countries, confirmed the call with Bezos, telling reporters, &#8220;Jeff Bezos was very nice. He was terrific. He solved the problem very quickly.&#8221;
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt condemned Amazon&#8217;s potential move as a &#8220;hostile and political act.&#8221;
The disagreement unfolds as Amazon navigates challenges from Trump&#8217;s tariff policies, which analysts at Goldman Sachs expect could affect 6%-12% of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/45086459/amazon-pressures-suppliers-for-discounts-may-show-tariff-related-costs-on-haul-site">e-commerce giant&#8217;s operating margins in 2025.</a>
Price Action: Amazon stock closed at $187.39 on Tuesday, down 0.17% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock slipped further to $186.41, a decline of 0.52%. Year to date, Amazon shares have dropped 14.91%, or $32.83, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
Despite demonstrating strong momentum and ranking well on growth metrics, the e-commerce giant faces a negative price trend in the short to long term, according to Benzinga Edge&#8217;s Stock Ranking. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Sign up to learn more.</a>

Cryptocurrency bettors saw high chances of a military conflict between Asian neighbors India and Pakistan as tensions rose sharply following a deadly attack on civilians on the Indian side of Kashmir.
What happened: Odds that India initiates military action against Pakistan before June <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/india-military-action-against-pakistan-before-june">jumped </a>past 80% on the decentralized prediction market, Polymarket, on Tuesday. Nearly $350,000 has been wagered on the outcome&nbsp;
This market will resolve to &#8220;Yes&#8221; if India launches a military operation on Pakistani soil, airspace, or maritime territory, or any Pakistani embassies or consulates before June 1. Small fire exchanges along the disputed border won't qualify as military action.
Note that the Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">POL</a>)-based betting platform can't be accessed by U.S. residents due to regulatory restrictions.
The platform has faced criticism in the past for launching betting events that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41110897/ethereum-creator-vitalik-buterin-bats-for-polymarkets-model-amid-concerns-over-betting-on-">aim to profit from conflicts and wars</a>.

Why It Matters: The jump in odds comes after Pakistan's Defense Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif said India's attack was "imminent" during an interview with Reuters.&nbsp;
Moreover, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi gave the Indian military complete freedom to decide on the mode, targets, and timing of their attack, <a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/decide-on-targets-mode-timing-pm-modi-gives-complete-freedom-to-forces-to-avenge-pahalgam/articleshow/120734353.cms">according </a>to The Times of India.
Tensions have risen between South Asia&#8217;s two nuclear-armed countries after gunmen killed at least 26 tourists and injured several others in Jammu and Kashmir last week. India accuses Pakistan of supporting the attackers, while the latter has denied any participation.

Nuclear-Armed India, Pakistan Heading For Conflict Again? Polymarket Bettors Think Yes Amid Pak Minister's 'Imminent' Attack Remark

Coffeehouse chain, Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>), is making a case for its resilience amid the slowdown, rising recession risks, and global trade uncertainty. 
What Happened: During Tuesday's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45084597/starbucks-misses-q2-earnings-estimates-ceo-says-optimism-has-turned-into-confidence-i-see-more-opportunity-than-i-imagined">second-quarter earnings</a> call, CEO Brian Niccol addressed concerns about the company&#8217;s past underperformance during downturns, calling Starbucks a &#8220;simple, everyday luxury&#8221; that consumers will continue to enjoy regardless of the economic challenges surrounding them.
Niccol acknowledged that economic downturns will affect the business, but emphasized a proactive approach. &#8220;The best way to go after these things is with your best offense,&#8221; he said, adding that for Starbucks, that means becoming &#8220;a great third place,&#8221; which is a welcoming space beyond home and work.

Niccol pointed to Starbucks' &#8220;innovation pipeline&#8221; as a key differentiator, saying that it will &#8220;cut through in any environment.&#8221; As part of that effort, the company has launched an aperitivo menu for the afternoon and rolled out several new products aligned with evolving consumer preferences during the quarter.
Starbucks reported its fifth consecutive quarterly decline in same-store sales on Tuesday, with U.S. sales down 2% and global sales falling 1%. In response, the company is undergoing a broader transformation under an initiative dubbed "Back to Starbucks," aimed at reviving its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42609868/starbucks-workers-plan-strike-in-la-chicago-seattle-on-christmas-eve-amid-holiday-rush">core coffeehouse culture</a>.
Why It Matters: Analysts, however, are skeptical of the company&#8217;s resilience in the face of macro headwinds, with Guggenheim analyst Gregory Francfort stating on Tuesday, that being <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/45087119/analyst-warns-starbucks-faces-growing-risks-from-competition-costs-and-global-tensions">a discretionary purchase</a>, Starbucks can come under pressure if consumer conditions deteriorate.
Others, such as Andy Barish from Jefferies Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEF#NYSE">JEF</a>) believe that the <a href="https://benzinga.com/general/restaurants/25/04/45052970/starbucks-q2-earnings-preview-will-results-show-turnaround-progress">company&#8217;s turnaround</a> and recovery will take some time.
The stock came <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44634719/restaurant-stocks-are-getting-cooked-thursday-as-trump-tariffs-rattle-markets">under renewed pressure</a> at the beginning of this month, following President Donald Trump&#8217;s tariffs, given the company&#8217;s outsized exposure to China, with over 7,600 locations in the country.
Price Action: The stock was up 1.13% on Tuesday, but is down 6.51% after-hours, following the company&#8217;s second quarter earnings results on Tuesday evening.

Alphabet Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) subsidiary Google-backed Waymo and Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) have announced a preliminary agreement on Tuesday to explore collaboration on autonomous driving technologies, with a focus on personally owned vehicles, the companies said in a joint release.
What Happened: The strategic partnership aims to combine Waymo&#8217;s autonomous driving expertise with Toyota&#8217;s vehicle manufacturing capabilities to develop a new autonomous vehicle platform. Woven by Toyota will join as a strategic enabler, contributing advanced software and mobility innovation to the project.
&#8220;Toyota is committed to realizing a society with zero traffic accidents and becoming a mobility company that delivers mobility for all,&#8221; said Hiroki Nakajima, Executive Vice President of Toyota Motor Corporation. &#8220;We share a strong sense of purpose and a common vision with Waymo in advancing safety through automated driving technology.&#8221;
Waymo, which currently provides <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45001569/waymo-announces-250000-weekly-paid-rides-across-four-us-cities-sundar-pichai-says-personal-ownership-an-option-in-the-future">more than 250,000 fully autonomous paid rides weekly</a> across San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoenix, and Austin, will bring its substantial operational experience to the partnership. Data shows Waymo vehicles are involved in 81% fewer injury-causing crashes compared to human drivers.
&#8220;Waymo&#8217;s mission is to be the world&#8217;s most trusted driver,&#8221; said Tekedra Mawakana, co-CEO at Waymo. &#8220;This requires global partners like Toyota that share our commitment to improving road safety and expanding accessible transportation.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The announcement comes as competition intensifies in the autonomous vehicle sector. Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is preparing to launch its robotaxi service in Austin this June with 10-20 vehicles, though <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44979720/teslas-robotaxi-launch-in-june-will-likely-be-a-non-event-says-gary-black-this-isnt-really-a-test-market-its-an-experiment">some investors remain skeptical</a> about the limited scope of its initial deployment.
Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai recently highlighted autonomous vehicle personal ownership as &#8220;an option&#8221; in Waymo&#8217;s future during the company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45001569/waymo-announces-250000-weekly-paid-rides-across-four-us-cities-sundar-pichai-says-personal-ownership-an-option-in-the-future">first-quarter of 2025 earnings call</a>, aligning with this new Toyota partnership&#8217;s focus on personally owned vehicles.
The partnership will focus on incorporating aspects of Waymo&#8217;s technology into Toyota&#8217;s vehicles while continuing to develop Toyota&#8217;s proprietary Toyota Safety Sense suite of advanced safety features. Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Google's Waymo Wants To Be The 'World's Most Trusted Driver' And Toyota 'Zero Traffic Accidents' — Both Join Forces To Bring Autonomous Driving Tech To Personal Vehicles

On Tuesday, Spotify Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>) defended its $11.99 Premium plan while signaling that future price hikes could be part of its long-term strategy.
What Happened: During <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45066980/spotify-grows-subscribers-and-revenue-but-profit-miss-sends-stock-sliding">Spotify&#8217;s first-quarter 2025 earnings</a> call, executives were asked why the platform hasn't raised its price more in the past 19 years, and how much room is there to raise it going forward.
In response, CEO Daniel Ek said that in the beginning, Spotify focused only on growing its user base, not on making money. Later, they started thinking about how to convert free users into paying users. That's when features like Family Plan and Student Plan were added.
&#8220;I still believe there will be more segmentation,&#8221; Ek said, adding, &#8220;But yeah, I think the opportunity is big.&#8221;
Spotify's chief business officer, Alex Norstrom, then added that even after the price increases, Spotify is still seen as one of the best values in entertainment.&nbsp;

&#8220;When we look at churn, this continues to be quite modest even as we raise prices in different markets. And as we&#8217;ve said many times before, prices are now, price increases are now part of our toolbox,&#8221; he stated.
How Spotify Compares With Its Competitors: Spotify faces stiff competition from rivals like Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) Music and YouTube Music, a product of 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, all offering similar subscription tiers at comparable price points.
Spotify&#8217;s plans include $5.99 per month for students, $11.99 for individual users, $16.99 for two-person family plans, and $19.99 for families of up to six.

Apple Music's pricing starts at $5.99 per month for students, $10.99 for individual users, and $16.99 for a family plan that supports up to six members.
Apple Music is also part of the Apple One subscription bundle — the Individual plan is priced at $19.95 per month, the Family plan at $25.95 per month, and the Premier plan at $37.95 per month
YouTube Music offers two tiers of pricing—one without YouTube Premium and one bundled with it. 
The standalone YouTube Music subscription costs $5.49 per month for students, $10.99 for individual users, and $16.99 for a family plan covering up to five members.
For users seeking an ad-free video experience as well, the bundled option with YouTube Premium is priced at $7.99 for students, $13.99 for individuals, and $22.99 for families with up to five accounts.
Why It's Important: Spotify posted quarterly earnings of $1.13 per share, falling short of the analyst consensus estimate of $2.33. The company added 3 million monthly active users (MAUs) from the previous quarter, bringing the total to 678 million, meeting its projected guidance.
Earlier this month, a steep drop in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44764554/consumer-sentiment-crashes-to-3-year-lows-as-inflation-expectations-spike-to-1981-highs">consumer confidence raised red flags</a> across Main Street, as renewed inflation worries and heightened recession risks sparked fears.
However, Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) co-CEO Greg Peters has downplayed those concerns, noting that entertainment has traditionally <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44881044/netflix-downplays-recession-fears-amid-market-volatility-triggered-by-trump-tariffs-co-ceo-greg-peters-raves-about-resilient-799-ad-plan-we-havent-seen-any-significant-changes">remained resilient even during</a> periods of economic downturn.
Price Action: Spotify shares have climbed 26.03% so far in 2025 and are up an impressive 101.56% over the past 12 months. However, the stock slipped 3.48% on Tuesday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
In the Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings, Spotify has a growth score of 9.94% and an outstanding momentum score of 97.52%. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to see how it stacks up against</a> rivals like Apple, YouTube, and others.

Spotify Defends $11.99 Price Tag, But Executive Says Raising Prices Is Now 'Part Of Our Toolbox' — Can Music Escape The Inflation Gauntlet?

A widely followed cryptocurrency analyst forecasted a breakout for Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) toward $1 on Tuesday, based on their analysis of the meme coin&#8217;s weekly chart.
What Happened: In an X post, Trader Tardigrade drew attention to the&nbsp;four completed red candles on the chart, with&nbsp;the current week&#8217;s&nbsp;candle potentially passing through the&nbsp;mid-band, forming a green candle.&nbsp; 
The analyst used the Gaussian Channel indicator, a widely used method to identify potential overbought or oversold conditions. The upper and lower bands of the channel acted as dynamic support and resistance levels.
&#8220;Trendline resistance targets the price near the $1 mark,&#8221; Trader Tartigrade said. Should the prediction come true, it would amount to a 488% upside from DOGE&#8217;s current levels. Note that the cryptocurrency has dipped by over 3% in the last week.

Dogecoin Heading Toward $1? Analyst Predicts Breakout For Meme Coin On Weekly Chart

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk drew attention on Tuesday to economic data showing China&#8217;s economy has significantly outgrown both the United States and European Union when measured by purchasing power parity.
What Happened: &#8220;This comes as a surprise to most people,&#8221; Musk wrote on X, citing data from xAI&#8217;s Grok chatbot indicating China&#8217;s gross domestic product in PPP terms is approximately $35.29 trillion in 2025, compared to $28.78 trillion for the U.S. and $21.99 trillion for the EU.
These figures suggest China&#8217;s economy is 1.23 times larger than America&#8217;s and 1.60 times larger than the EU&#8217;s when adjusted for domestic purchasing power.
The World Bank&#8217;s most recent data supports this trend, showing China as the leading global economy with a PPP-adjusted GDP of approximately $34.66 trillion in 2023, compared to $27.72 trillion for the U.S.
According to International Monetary Fund projections for 2025, China&#8217;s economy is growing at 4% compared to 1.8% for the U.S. China is expected to account for 19.68% of global GDP based on PPP, while the U.S. represents 14.75%.

Why It Matters: Musk&#8217;s comments came in response to billionaire investor Ray Dalio&#8216;s warning about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/45063781/elon-musk-reacts-after-ray-dalio-warns-of-us-decline-says-china-has-already-surpassed-america-as-global-consumption-leader">America&#8217;s declining economic influence</a>. When Dalio suggested the U.S. remains the world&#8217;s primary consumer and debtor, Musk countered, &#8220;China is a much bigger consumer of manufactured goods than the United States. This year, Chinese consumers will buy more cars than America and Europe combined.&#8221;
The exchange highlights shifting global economic power as U.S.-China trade tensions escalate. Recent tariff increases exceeding 100% have led Chinese manufacturers to suspend operations and seek alternative markets, with Goldman Sachs downgrading China&#8217;s GDP <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/45032435/trump-tariffs-prompt-suspension-of-chinese-factory-operations-and-shift-to-new-markets">growth forecasts to 4.0% for 2025</a>.
Despite these challenges, China&#8217;s NDRC remains &#8220;fully confident&#8221; in meeting its 5% economic growth target for 2025, even as economists like Torsten Slok of Apollo Global Management warn of a &#8220;90% chance&#8221; of U.S. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45033463/as-china-downplays-trump-tariffs-with-5-growth-target-top-economist-warns-of-90-chance-of-a-us-recession-amid-trade-war">recession if current tariffs persist</a>.

Super Micro Computer, Starbucks, Snap, Visa, Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Trump Media and Technology Group&nbsp;Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJT#NASDAQ">DJT</a>)&nbsp;said Tuesday it was contemplating&nbsp;the launch of a utility token for users accessing its Truth Social ecosystem.
What Happened: In a shareholder letter, TMTG outlined its key products and near-term roadmap, focusing on the Truth Social and Truth+ video streaming platforms.
The company stated it was working on a token within a Truth Digital wallet that could be used to pay for a Truth+ subscription initially and then used to access other products and services in the ecosystem.
TMTG didn&#8217;t immediately return Benzinga&#8217;s request for comment on additional details about the proposed token.

Trump Media Says Its Exploring Utility Token Within Truth Digital Wallet As Part Of Rewards Program

PayPal Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PYPL#NASDAQ">PYPL</a>) is seeing strong momentum with its "Buy Now, Pay Later" services, with significantly higher user engagement and larger transaction sizes, as it expands the offering globally.
What Happened: During its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45067312/paypal-earnings-beat-but-slower-spending-and-checkout-use-weigh-on-results">first quarter earnings</a> on Tuesday, PayPal highlighted key developments in its Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) service, a short-term financing option that lets consumers defer payments on purchases, starting with a 0% APR, and no late fees.
BNPL users spend 33% more per transaction than PayPal's overall average of $69.53, the company said. They also complete 17% more transactions than the average of 59.4 per active account over the past 12 months.

Although PayPal launched its BNPL service in 2020, the company credits recent gains to its improved pay sheet that clearly showcases its full range of payment options. The service has also received greater visibility through marketing campaigns, including one featuring actor Will Ferrell.
Despite inherent credit risks tied to BNPL offerings, PayPal CFO Jamie Miller has said that charge-off rates remain stable and are improving. &#8220;In particular with respect to the consumer portfolios, we've actually seen delinquencies over the last 30 days improve,&#8221; Miller said on the earnings call.
The company&#8217;s CEO, Alex Chriss, considers BNPL a key growth lever going forward, with plans for an international rollout this year.
&#8220;We will continue to lean into BNPL throughout this year with targeted consumer awareness campaigns in the U.K. and Germany and continued investment in other priority global markets including Australia, France, Italy, and Spain,&#8221; Chriss said on the call.
Why It Matters: The BNPL market has surged in recent years, with the market <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/01/36697045/the-rise-of-buy-now-pay-later-in-2024">expected to touch</a> $1 trillion by 2027, led by PayPal, and its peers such as Affirm Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AFRM#NASDAQ">AFRM</a>), Klarna, and AfterPay, which is now owned by Block Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XYZ#NYSE">XYZ</a>).
While analysts have cautioned against <a href="https://benzinga.com/news/25/02/43888952/americans-owe-a-record-1-21-trillion-in-credit-card-debt-expert-warns-theres-no-end-in-sight">rising BNPL debt</a> and overindulgence by consumers in the past, the company&#8217;s steady charge-off rates and low delinquencies have dismissed these concerns.
Price Action: PayPal stock was up 2.14% on Tuesday, but is down 0.26% after-hours, following the company&#8217;s first quarter earnings.

PayPal doesn&#8217;t fare too well on Benzinga&#8217;s Edge Stock Rankings, with low scores across the board, and unfavorable price trends in the short, medium, and long term.

PayPal Says 'Buy Now, Pay Later' Users Spend 33% More, Make 17% More Transactions—Pushes For Global Rollout

Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) develops and supports software, services, devices and solutions worldwide.
It is set to report its Q3 2025 earnings on April 30. Wall Street analysts expect the company to post EPS of $3.22, up from $2.94 in the prior-year period. According to Benzinga Pro, quarterly revenue is expected to reach $68.44 billion, up from $61.86 billion a year earlier.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">If You Bought Microsoft Stock 10 Years Ago</h2>
The company's stock traded at approximately $48.03 per share 10 years ago. If you had invested $10,000, you could have bought roughly 208 shares. Currently, shares trade at $391.85, meaning your investment's value could have grown to $81,584 from stock price appreciation alone. However, Microsoft also paid dividends during these 10 years.&nbsp;
Microsoft's dividend yield is currently 0.86%. Over the last 10 years, it has paid about $22.73 in dividends per share, which means you could have made $4,733 from dividends alone.&nbsp;
Summing up $81,584 and $4,733, we end up with the final value of your investment, which is $86,317. This is how much you could have made if you had invested $10,000 in Microsoft stock 10 years ago. This means a total return of 763.17%. In comparison, the S&amp;P 500 total return for the same period was 213.60%.
Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Could The Next 10 Years Bring?&nbsp;</h2>
Microsoft has a consensus rating of "Buy" and a price target of $494.57 based on the ratings of 33 analysts. The price target implies more than 26% potential upside from the current stock price.
On Jan. 29, the company announced its Q2 2025 earnings, posting GAAP EPS of $3.23, beating the $3.11 consensus estimate, as reported by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43320124/microsoft-shares-slide-after-q2-results-cloud-revenue-misses-expectations-details">Benzinga</a>. Quarterly revenue came in at $69.6 billion, above the $68.78 billion analyst consensus estimate.
&#8220;We are innovating across our tech stack and helping customers unlock the full ROI of AI to capture the massive opportunity ahead," said CEO Satya Nadella. &#8220;Already, our AI business has surpassed an annual revenue run rate of $13 billion, up 175% year-over-year.&#8221;

Given the historical stock price appreciation and expected upside potential, growth-focused investors may find Microsoft stock attractive. Furthermore, they can benefit from the company's solid dividend yield of 0.86% and consistent hikes. Microsoft has raised its dividend consecutively for the last 19 years.

Bitcoin, Ethereum Flat, Dogecoin Dips Amid Trade Deal Hopes: Analyst Says BTC Price 'Holding Strong' And Setup Clean For Push To $98,300

On Tuesday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest executed notable trades involving Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) , Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), and Shopify Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NASDAQ">SHOP</a>).
The Meta Platforms Trade saw Ark Invest offloading 2,865 shares of Meta Platforms Inc. through its ARK Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#BATS">ARKK</a>) fund.

The Mark Zuckerberg-led company is expected to disclose earnings figures on Wednesday. The sale, valued at approximately $1.6 million coincides with Meta&#8217;s recent launch of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/45075691/meta-launches-ai-app-to-compete-with-chatgpt-gemini-grok">standalone AI app</a> designed to compete with OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT and Google&#8217;s Gemini.
