In defiance of the market&#8217;s downturn, a memecoin built on the Solana blockchain, Billy (CRYPTO: BILLY), has experienced a significant surge, with its value increasing by nearly 147% in the last week.
What Happened: The value of Billy, a memecoin with a dog theme, has surged by nearly 147% in the last week, reaching $0.182. This surge in value comes after several cryptocurrency exchanges, including Bittrue, Bitget, MEXC, and Gate.io, added support for the coin, <a href="https://dailyhodl.com/2024/07/05/solana-based-memecoin-defies-market-downturn-jumps-over-30-in-24-hours-amid-listing-on-multiple-exchanges/">reported</a> The Daily Hodl.
Billy, which was launched in June, features a puppy image and has outperformed other popular meme coins during the current market consolidation phase, which has led to significant declines across the board, the report noted. 
Despite the market&#8217;s downturn, Billy&#8217;s market cap is currently at $181.8 million, with a 24-hour trading volume of $55.3 million, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
Why It Matters: Despite their often whimsical nature, meme coins have been gaining traction and demonstrating significant market resilience.
Other dog-theme assets such as Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) are trading at $0.00001538 and $0.1081 respectively as of the time of writing this article.
Other top-tier cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) have come under selling pressure over the past week &#8211; while Bitcoin has fallen over 7%, Ethereum declined by over 11%.

While Bitcoin, Ethereum, Shiba Inu Witness A Meltdown, This Solana-Based Memecoin Has Surged 147% In Last Week

EV maker Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) has scrapped its return policy that allowed customers to return their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39595729/why-rivian-automotive-shares-are-gaining-tuesday">new vehicle </a>in 7 days if it does not meet their needs.
What Happened: Rivian previously allowed new customers to return their new vehicles within 7 days or 1000 miles if it doesn&#8217;t meet their needs. The webpage referring to the policy has now been taken down.
A Rivian spokesperson told <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga</a> in a statement that the company launched the 7-day return policy to reassure customers who were unfamiliar with the brand and its products. However, since then, the company has scaled its network of Service Centers and demo drive fleet across the United States and Canada so that customers can test drive before purchase, they said.
The company now says on its website that Rivian vehicles do not have a return policy. The company instead urges customers to schedule demo drives and test the vehicle before making the purchase. 
&#8220;We encourage our customers to get behind the wheel by&nbsp;scheduling a demo drive. You'll also have the opportunity to do a vehicle walk-around with a delivery specialist prior to accepting delivery, and are covered by Rivian's industry-leading warranties,&#8221; the company support page now reads.
Why It Matters: Rivian currently has two vehicles in production, the R1T truck and the R1S SUV, both priced at around $70,000. The company has been accumulating losses for every vehicle it delivered until the first quarter of 2024 when it made a loss of nearly $39,000 for each of the 13,588 vehicles it sold.
Rivian is looking to turn its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/07/39594501/from-volkswagen-partnership-to-trimming-costs-and-introducing-cheaper-evs-rivian-st">first-ever quarterly gross profit</a> in the fourth quarter of 2024 and has been making moves aimed at cutting costs. The possible cancellation of the return policy might also be aimed at that end.
Last month, Rivian announced its intent to form a joint venture with Volkswagen aimed at creating software-defined vehicle platforms to be used in both players&#8217; future electric vehicles starting in the second half of the decade.
As part of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39559280/rivian-volkswagen-partnership-a-game-changer-says-one-analyst-a-mystery-says-another">terms of the deal</a>, Volkswagen will initially invest $1 billion in Rivian and then up to $4 billion until 2026. Both companies shall hold a 50% stake in the JV which is expected to be formed by the fourth quarter of 2024.&nbsp;

Rivian Cancels 7-Day Vehicle Return Policy, Urges Customers To Do Test Drives And Walk-Arounds Instead

American basketball player Trae Young has seemingly taken delivery of a Tesla Inc <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39646347/tesla-hints-cybertruck-was-most-sold-ev-truck-in-us-in-q2-but-elon-musks-company-has-not-released-da">Cybertruck</a> and wrapped it in a blue resemblant of snow and winters. 
What Happened: Young shared pictures of his blue-wrapped Cybertruck on X and Instagram on Friday. The pictures were captioned &#8216;Sometimes you gotta pop out….,&#8217; from rapper Kendrick Lamar&#8216;s popular song &#8216;Not Like Us.&#8217; 
Young also nicknamed his truck the &#8216;SnowMobile&#8217; after Batman&#8217;s bat-themed Batmobile.

&mdash; Trae Young (@TheTraeYoung) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheTraeYoung/status/1809333469161697705?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 5, 2024</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The Cybertruck&#8217;s stainless steel body allows no exterior paint. However, customers can wrap the truck, either with wraps available at Tesla&#8217;s online shop, or more individualistic wraps from third-party customizers.
Rapper Lil Baby showcased his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39613831/elon-musk-thinks-cybertruck-wrap-resembling-marvel-superhero-deadpool-looks-cool">red-wrapped Cybertruck</a> on Instagram over the week, resembling Marvel superhero Deadpool with intermittent black in its body and wheels.
The rapper, however, was seemingly going for a big, angular red apple. Footballer Isaiah Simmons also recently took delivery of a Cybertruck and wrapped it in matte white with white wheel caps which Tesla CEO Elon Musk commended as &#8216;Nice.&#8217;
Why It Matters: Tesla started delivering the Cybertruck in November. Since then, several celebrities and popular names have taken delivery of it including&nbsp;Justin Bieber,&nbsp;Jay-Z&nbsp;and&nbsp;Beyonce,&nbsp;Serena Williams, and&nbsp;Lady Gaga.
The celebrity status of the Cybertruck is likely due to the vehicle&#8217;s unconventional design, high price point, and the few units available on the road. The vehicle pricing starts at $79,990 for the all-wheel drive version and $99,990 for the more premium Cyberbeast version.
A lower-priced rear-wheel drive version of the truck will be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38130429/new-cybertruck-orders-will-only-be-delivered-in-2025-says-tesla-website" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">available in 2025</a>, as per the company website, starting at $60,990.
Tesla is currently scaling the production of the Cybertruck and aims to make 250,000 annually by 2025. For now, the company has touched a weekly production rate of 1,300 Cybertrucks, Musk said at Tesla's annual shareholder meeting earlier this month. The EV maker is looking to increase it further this year to touch 2,500 units by year-end,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39330272/tesla-ramping-up-cybertruck-production-to-touch-2-500-units-per-week-non-foundation-series-to-start" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;he added</a>.

Basketball Player Trae Young Now Drives A Blue Wrapped Cybertruck Nicknamed 'SnowMobile'

Former President Donald Trump has publicly disavowed any connection to the contentious "Project 2025," despite the project&#8217;s ties to his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39641760/biden-vs-trump-incumbent-trails-by-widest-margin-in-this-election-cycle-but-more-than-half-unenthusi">potential second-term administration</a>.
What Happened: According to a Reuters report on Saturday, Trump has renounced any association with Project 2025, an initiative led by the Heritage Foundation, a prominent conservative think tank.
The project has faced criticism from Democrats, who claim it outlines an extreme policy agenda for a potential second Trump term.
Several individuals involved in Project 2025 have previously worked in the Trump administration and are expected to return should he win the November election.
However, Trump refuted any connection to the project on his Truth Social platform, stating, &#8220;I know nothing about Project 2025. I have no idea who is behind it.&#8221;
"I disagree with some of the things they're saying and some of the things they're saying are absolutely ridiculous and abysmal," he said while wishing them "luck."
Trump&#8217;s distancing from the project comes three days after Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts&#8217; comments about a second American Revolution on Steve Bannon&#8217;s &#8220;War Room&#8221; podcast. These remarks were widely criticized as a veiled threat of violence.

Political science professor James Wallner suggests that Trump&#8217;s move could be an attempt to moderate his message in the final months of the race, especially as opponent Joe Biden&#8217;s campaign <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39652860/biden-should-step-aside-say-business-leaders-including-walmart-heir">appears to be faltering</a>.
The Biden campaign has been linking Trump&#8217;s campaign to Project 2025, with campaign spokesperson Ammar Moussa stating, "Project 2025 is the extreme policy and personnel playbook for Trump's second term that should scare the hell out of the American people."
Why It Matters: Trump&#8217;s disassociation from Project 2025 comes at a time when his opponent is facing criticism over his recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39653890/biden-dismisses-health-concerns-defends-poor-debate-performance-amid-calls-to-withdraw-from-2024-rac">poor debate performance</a>. Biden, however, has dismissed health concerns and defended his performance, attributing it to exhaustion and cold, rather than a serious health condition.
Furthermore, Trump has recently made <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39638541/trumps-unfounded-claims-kamala-harris-stir-controversy-shes-so-bad-shes-so-pathetic">unfounded allegations</a> about Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, causing controversy.
Despite this, a new poll shows Biden still <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39628794/biden-vs-trump-new-poll-shows-president-still-very-much-in-race-despite-debate-fiasco-but-final-outc">very much in the race</a>, with both candidates receiving 40% support each.

Trump Distances Himself From 'Project 2025' Amid Rising Controversy: 'I Know Nothing'

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) bull Gary Black on Friday raised his price target on the EV giant&#8217;s shares from $200 to $270 in addition to revising his estimates for the company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39595720/tesla-deliveries-fall-for-second-straight-quarter-but-stock-takes-off-as-q2-numbers-exceed-expec">full-year vehicle delivery volume</a> and earnings per share.
What Happened: The Future Fund Managing Partner increased his adjusted EPS (earnings per share) estimate for 2024 to $2.4 from $2.2 while adding that Tesla will likely deliver 1,707,000 vehicles for the whole year, down from the 1,808,581 units delivered in 2023.
Despite the increase, Black&#8217;s estimates are still behind Wall Street estimates of an adjusted EPS of $2.46 and deliveries of 1,804,000 units for the year. 
For 2030, however, Black is more optimistic. The analyst now estimates an adjusted EPS of $15 for Tesla in 2030, up from his previous $14.5 estimate, and much higher than Wall Street estimate of $12.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The long-term estimate revision is based on several upsides Black sees for Tesla including an increase in global EV adoption rate by 2030, an increase in take rate for Tesla&#8217;s full self-driving driver assistance technology, and also a hike in gross profits from the company&#8217;s energy storage segment.
Black, however, assumed no incremental value for either Tesla&#8217;s upcoming robotaxi or its humanoid robot Optimus in a move that he acknowledged as &#8220;ultra-conservative.&#8221;
Why It Matters: Black&#8217;s revision comes at a time when Tesla&#8217;s stock is on the rise. The company's second-quarter delivery numbers beat estimates,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/24/07/39605521/stock-of-the-day-teslas-q2-deliveries-spark-rally-will-resistance-halt-the-climb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">igniting a stock rally</a> and reversing losses so far this year. 
Talking about the recent rally, former Ford Motor Co. CEO Mark Fields said in an appearance on CNBC, &#8220;I think what&#8217;s ironic is that Musk has been- Musk wants Tesla to be a robotics and AI company, but their stock turnaround was driven by the autos.&#8221;

Gary Black Raises Tesla Price Target As Ex-Ford CEO Notes Irony of Auto-Driven Stock Rally Amid Elon Musk's AI And Robotics Focus

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has approved the marketplace app of Epic Games, the creator of &#8220;Fortnite,&#8221; for iPhones and iPads in Europe. This move comes amid a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39646883/fortnite-maker-epic-games-accuses-apple-of-blocking-its-game-store-launch">continuing conflict</a> between the two tech behemoths.
What Happened: Apple&#8217;s approval follows accusations from Epic Games that Apple was hindering its attempts to launch a games store on Apple devices. 
The tech giant stated that the dispute is centered around&nbsp;the Epic Sweden AB Marketplace&nbsp;and is not related to Epic&#8217;s Fortnite app, which Apple has already approved, reported Reuters.
Epic Games had earlier alleged that Apple had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39646883/fortnite-maker-epic-games-accuses-apple-of-blocking-its-game-store-launch">twice rejected its application&nbsp;to launch</a> the Epic Games&nbsp;Store due to similarities in&nbsp;the design of certain buttons&nbsp;and labels with those used by Apple&#8217;s App Store.&nbsp;
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.
&#8220;Apple&#8217;s rejection is arbitrary, obstructive,&nbsp;and in violation of the&nbsp;DMA (Digital Markets Act), and&nbsp;we&#8217;ve shared our concerns with&nbsp;the European Commission,&#8221; Epic said in a series of posts on X.
Why It Matters: The European Commission, which began an investigation into Apple&#8217;s app validation processes and alternative app store sideloading last month, has yet to comment on the issue. 
The feud between Apple and Epic Games began in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/23/12/36210791/how-did-epic-games-showdown-with-google-differ-from-apple-ceo-tim-sweeney-says-it-was-like-ice-and">2020 when Epic claimed that&nbsp;Apple&#8217;s practice</a> of charging up&nbsp;to 30% commissions on in-app&nbsp;payments on its iOS devices violated U.S. antitrust laws.
Earlier this year, Apple proposed changes to its App Store policies to comply with specific directives of the DMA, which came into effect in March. These changes permitted alternative app stores on iPhones and allowed users to opt out of using the in-app payment system.
However, Apple introduced a &#8220;core technology fee,&#8221; which many developers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36805331/apples-alternative-app-store-model-in-the-eu-could-potentially-cost-meta-others-millions-of-dollars">have criticized as exploitative</a>.

Apple Approves Epic Games' Marketplace App In Europe Amid Ongoing Feud

Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) has received a rare downgrade from New Street Research, with the analyst citing concerns about the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39412234/nvidias-rise-resembles-dot-com-boom-era-but-former-cisco-ceo-says-things-are-different-this-time">stock&#8217;s overvaluation</a>.
What Happened: New Street Research analyst Pierre Ferragu downgraded Nvidia&#8217;s stock from buy to neutral, citing that the stock is "getting fully valued" after a remarkable 161% surge this year to date. The stock had previously seen a gain of almost 240% in 2023.
Ferragu expressed doubt about any additional upside, stating that it would only materialize in a bull case, which is not yet certain. He also warned of a potential risk of derating if the current outlook remains unchanged.

"When you listen to clients of Nvidia, we see demand is completely in line with expectations," said Ferragu in an interview with CNBC.

The company&#8217;s market capitalization has increased by almost $1.9 trillion, briefly making it the world&#8217;s largest company.
Why It Matters: The recent surge in the U.S. stock market, largely driven by the promise of artificial intelligence, has drawn comparisons to the dot-com bubble of the late 1990s.
This has raised concerns about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39589689/ai-boom-spurs-nvidia-led-us-stock-market-rally-experts-draw-parallels-with-dotcom-bubble-no-one-">another overvaluation scenario</a>, as the market is currently dominated by a small group of tech giants, with Nvidia among the top performers.

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSMC#NYSE">TSMC</a>), citing their growth trends and valuations.
AMD and TSMC are &#8220;the best names to own in the group, offering strong upside in both in our base and high scenarios,&#8221; New Street said in a note, adding that among other stocks with AI exposure, Broadcom Inc.

Nvidia Gets Rare Downgrade Over Concerns That Demand Is Normalizing 'In Line With Expectations:' Stock 'Getting Fully Valued'

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk on Friday teased making a robot resembling TARS from the Christopher Nolan movie Interstellar, in addition to its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39327644/tesla-ceo-elon-musk-eyes-25-trillion-market-cap-with-optimus-bot-admits-to-being-pathologically-opti">humanoid robot Optimus.</a>
What Happened: &#8220;Maybe Tesla should built it. Would be so cute,&#8221; Musk wrote on X. The CEO was responding to a video of a functional, walking TARS replica. 
<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">Maybe Tesla should built it. Would be so cute.
&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1809380365464723964?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 6, 2024</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

Musk is currently attempting to make Tesla a robotics, AI, and sustainable energy company in addition to an automaker with an increased push toward diverse fields such as robotics, energy storage, and autonomous driving. The company is already developing a humanoid robot by the name of Optimus.
Optimus, however, is very different from TARS. While the fictional robot has a cuboidal structure with moving cuboidal parts, Optimus resembles a human with moving hands capable of performing tasks around a factory. 
Two Optimus bots are currently employed in Tesla's Fremont factory, taking cells off the end of the production line and placing them in containers, Musk confirmed in early June. 
Why It Matters: During Tesla's annual shareholder meeting in June, Musk said that there will be at least <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39246781/elon-musk-thinks-humanoid-robots-will-one-day-exceed-human-population-from-nvidias-project-gr00t-to" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">one humanoid robot</a> for every person in the world in the future, implying a total humanoid robot population of at least 10 billion or more, of which the EV company will have a significant share.
&#8220;While autonomous vehicle is a $5-$7 trillion market cap situation, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39327644/tesla-ceo-elon-musk-eyes-25-trillion-market-cap-with-optimus-bot-admits-to-being-pathologically-opti">Optimus is a $25 trillion market cap situation</a>,&#8221; Musk, who is known to over-hype his company&#8217;s products, then said. The CEO himself admitted that he is &#8220;pathologically optimistic&#8221; but delivers in the end.
Following a major hardware revision by the end of this year or early next year, Tesla expects to commence limited production of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39307242/tesla-says-optimus-bots-are-now-performing-autonomous-tasks-at-its-factory-3-years-after-introductio">Optimus to work in its factories</a> and test its capabilities, the CEO added.
Tesla also plans to unveil its dedicated robotaxi product on Aug. 8. The CEO, in April, said that dedicating to autonomous driving is a &#8220;blindly obvious move&#8221; for Tesla.
&#8220;Even if I got kidnapped by aliens tomorrow, Tesla&nbsp;will&nbsp;solve autonomy, maybe a little slower, but it would solve autonomy for vehicles at least,&#8221;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38397845/tesla-will-solve-autonomy-even-if-i-got-kidnapped-by-aliens-tomorrow-says-elon-musk-as-he-reveals-ta" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Musk said</a>&nbsp;at the company's first-quarter earnings call. &#8220;If somebody doesn&#8217;t believe Tesla is going to solve autonomy, I think they should not be an investor in the company.&#8221;

Tesla CEO Elon Musk Considers Building Replica Of TARS From Interstellar In Addition To Optimus: 'Would Be So Cute'

Amid growing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/07/39625294/2024-election-betting-odds-react-to-biden-debate-disaster-trump-odds-hit-all-time-high-kam">calls for his withdrawal</a> from the 2024 presidential race, President Joe Biden has defended his recent poor debate performance, attributing it to exhaustion and cold, rather than a serious health condition.
What Happened: In his first interview since the debate, Biden <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/exhausted-bad-episode-biden-doubles-debate-explanations-abc/story?id=111695168">told</a> ABC News&#8217; George Stephanopoulos on Friday, that he felt terrible before the event.
&#8220;It was a bad episode. No indication of any serious condition. I was exhausted.&#8221;
Stephanopoulos questioned the timing, noting&nbsp;that Biden had spent six&nbsp;days at Camp David preparing&nbsp;for the debate. Biden revealed that&nbsp;he thought he had COVID-19.&nbsp;
&#8220;Because&nbsp;I was sick, I was&nbsp;feeling terrible. A matter of&nbsp;fact, the doc was with&nbsp;me — I asked if&nbsp;they did a COVID test&nbsp;because I was trying to&nbsp;figure out what's wrong,&#8221; Biden said. However, the test came back negative.

The president also refuted claims that he had&nbsp;listened back to the debate and accused former President Donald Trump of lying 28 times during the event. 
Why It Matters: During the debate, Biden&#8217;s&nbsp;soft and raspy voice and&nbsp;his struggle to complete sentences raised concerns about his health. The White House initially attributed his performance to a cold, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39610890/biden-blames-jet-lag-for-subpar-debate-performance-i-decided-to-travel-around-the-world-a-couple-tim">later blaming it on recent foreign travel</a>.
Biden&#8217;s poor performance in the debate has led to increased speculation about his 2024 re-election bid. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39563725/biden-widely-criticized-over-debate-performance-but-poll-also-points-to-concerning-signs-for-trump">A recent poll</a> revealed a decline in voters' confidence in Biden‘s mental and physical fitness. Despite this, Biden remains committed to the presidential race, even as calls <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39653056/trump-vs-biden-former-president-retakes-lead-in-2024-election-poll-after-debate-more-voters-see-">for him to step down have grown.</a>
His performance has been attributed to a series of missteps by his top advisors, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39566647/joe-bidens-disastrous-debate-performance-blamed-on-bad-preparation-what-a-bad-decision-to-send-him-o">including a lack of rest and poor preparation</a>. Biden himself has previously attributed his lackluster performance to jet lag from his recent overseas trips.
&#8220;I didn&#8217;t have my best night, but the fact is that you know, I wasn&#8217;t very smart. I decided to travel around the world a couple times, going through around 100 time zones … before … the debate,&#8221; he said last week.

Biden Dismisses Health Concerns, Defends Poor Debate Performance Amid Calls To Withdraw From 2024 Race: 'It Was A Bad Episode. No Indication Of Any Serious Condition. I Was Exhausted'

President Joe Biden took to X, formerly Twitter, on Friday to congratulate Keir Starmer on becoming the new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39640147/keir-starmer-to-become-uk-prime-minister-as-labour-wins-big-over-rishi-sunaks-conservatives-mohamed">U.K. Prime Minister</a>.
What Happened: &#8220;Congratulations to Prime Minister Keir Starmer on becoming Prime Minister of the United Kingdom,&#8221; Biden wrote in a post on X. &#8220;I look forward to our shared work in support of freedom and democracy around the world, and to further strengthening the special relationship between our two countries.&#8221;
This is the first reaction from Biden on X to the U.K.&#8217;s newly elected prime minister.
<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">Congratulations to Prime Minister Keir Starmer on becoming Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
According to a statement from the White House, Biden also spoke with Starmer on Friday and the two leaders reiterated their continued support for Ukraine against Russia. They also affirmed their commitment to working with the leaders of Northern Ireland to create and sustain economic growth and opportunities.
Why It Matters: Keir Starmer-led Labour Party bagged a historic win in the 2024 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/eurozone/24/05/39048040/uk-election-how-it-works-and-which-markets-could-be-affected">U.K. General Elections</a> over the outgoing Prime Minister&nbsp;Rishi Sunak-led Conservative Party.
The electorate not only handed the party a resounding win after more than ten years of Conservative governance but also the monumental task of revitalizing a stagnant economy and a disillusioned nation.
&#8220;We said we would turn the page, and we have. Today we start the next chapter. begin the work of change, the mission of national renewal, and start to rebuild our country,&#8221; Starmer said in his victory speech to supporters in London. Starmer also promised to put &#8220;country first, party second&#8221; in his victory speech.
Starmer will attend the NATO Summit in Washington D.C. next week. Biden and Starmer will meet in person then.

Biden Congratulates Keir Starmer On Becoming UK Prime Minister: 'Look Forward To Our Shared Work...'

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said on Friday that the fifth flight of its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39455125/spacex-gambled-with-starships-reentry-method-says-senior-exec-there-was-still-a-chance-that-this-wou">ambitious Starship launch vehicle </a>will be in the next 4 weeks. For the next test, the company is expected to attempt landing Starship&#8217;s booster back at Starbase instead of splashing it down in the Gulf of Mexico like last time.
What Happened: &#8220;Flight 5 in 4 weeks,&#8221; Musk said on X, formerly Twitter, pegging the next Starship launch around for around Aug. 2.

SpaceX <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39226248/elon-musk-outlines-future-starship-goals-after-successful-fourth-flight-test">last launched Starship</a> in the first half of June. During the test, the two stages of the vehicle &#8211; the Starship spacecraft and the Super Heavy booster &#8211; separated and the booster subsequently had a soft splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico.
The spacecraft ignited its engines and went into space, made a controlled re-entry to Earth, and had a soft splashdown in the Indian Ocean. The entire flight lasted one hour and six minutes from launch. The key object of the flight was to re-enter Earth and the mission achieved it while withstanding damage to the vehicle.
The flights before accomplished less. While the spacecraft failed to reach space in the first flight, it reached space and exploded in the second test flight. During the third flight test, the spacecraft broke apart when re-entering Earth's atmosphere from space.
The goal for the next test flight, however, is to catch the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39543299/spacex-preparing-to-catch-starship-booster-at-starbase-during-next-test-flight-instead-of-splashing">booster back at Starbase</a> using the launch tower's mechanical arms, marking a significant demonstration of Starship&#8217;s reusability.
Why It Matters: SpaceX is currently looking to ensure full reusability for its Starship rocket. Reuse of rockets, the company believes, is integral to bringing down the costs of spaceflight as the most cost is taken up in building the launch vehicle.
Starship is touted as the world's most powerful launch vehicle, standing 121 meters tall and weighing approximately 5,000 tonnes. SpaceX is expected to have at least six test flights of the Starship this year, as per CEO&nbsp;Elon Musk‘s latest estimate from March.&nbsp;

Elon Musk Pegs Fifth Starship Launch For First Week Of August: SpaceX Expected To Attempt A Booster Landing This Time

President Joe Biden reaffirmed his determination to continue his presidential bid, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39627704/kamala-harris-reportedly-emerges-as-top-choice-to-replace-the-president-in-2024-election-biden-says">despite mounting concerns</a> within his party about his ability to secure another term.
What Happened: During the <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/biden-dismisses-concerns-mental-fitness-hed-drop-lord/story?id=111695174">interview</a> with ABC News, Biden, 81, described his debate against former President Donald Trump as a &#8220;bad episode.&#8221; He admitted to being &#8220;exhausted&#8221; and unprepared for the debate.
When asked if he was being realistic in his belief that he could beat Trump, Biden responded, &#8220;I don&#8217;t think anyone is more qualified.&#8221; He dismissed the widening polls between the two candidates as inaccurate.
Despite growing concerns from elected Democrats, Biden remained firm in his belief that he was the candidate to beat Trump in the November election.
He was also questioned about whether he would drop out if fellow Democrats in Congress said he was hurting their re-election chances in November. Biden responded, &#8220;If the Lord Almighty comes out and tells me that I might do that.&#8221;

When asked about his health, Biden said he was feeling terrible on the night of the debate and had a bad cold. He insisted that he was not frail and that he had a cognitive test every single day.
Earlier on Friday, Biden told a crowd in a fiery speech in Madison that some Democrats were <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39613299/democrats-want-biden-to-quit-push-this-candidate-as-better-fit-to-rival-trump-in-2024-presidential-r">trying to push him out of the race</a> in the wake of the debate with Trump. However, he said during the interview that senior Democrats would not ask him to step aside.
Why It Matters: Biden&#8217;s determination to continue his presidential bid comes amid a growing push from within his party for him to step down. The latest Morning Consult poll, conducted after the first presidential debate, saw <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39653056/trump-vs-biden-former-president-retakes-lead-in-2024-election-poll-after-debate-more-voters-see-">Trump retake his lead</a>.
Former Obama administration official, Van Jones, has indicated that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39638455/obama-era-official-says-democrats-discussing-how-to-replace-biden-full-scale-panic-behind-the-scenes">Democrats are privately considering the replacement of President Biden</a>. Jones disclosed that the internal discussion among Democrats is focused on "how" to replace Biden, not "whether". He added that the Democrats defending Biden publicly are having "completely different" discussions behind closed doors.
Despite the growing calls for his withdrawal, Biden <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39640413/im-not-going-anywhere-biden-rebuffs-calls-for-withdrawal-from-presidential-election-during-fourth-of">reiterated his commitment to stay in the race</a> during the Fourth of July celebrations.

Calls for President Joe Biden <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39540588/joe-bidens-debate-performance-triggers-democratic-panic-biden-sounds-hoarse-looks-tired-and-is-babbl">to step down</a> ahead of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-electionhttps://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">the 2024 election</a> and make way for another candidate, such as Vice President Kamala Harris, have grown. Yet, Biden remains vocally committed to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39628794/biden-vs-trump-new-poll-shows-president-still-very-much-in-race-despite-debate-fiasco-but-final-outc">presidential race as of Friday</a>.
Meanwhile, the latest Morning Consult poll, conducted after the first presidential debate, saw Ex-President and presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump retake his lead.
What Happened: The new <a href="https://pro.morningconsult.com/trackers/2024-presidential-election-polling">poll </a>of nationally registered voters shows the following results, with the results from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/06/39538536/trump-vs-biden-2024-presidential-candidates-tied-ahead-of-first-debate-abortion-hits-high-for-be">the June 25 poll</a> in parentheses:
<ul>
<li>Joe Biden: 43% (44%)</li>
<li>Donald Trump: 44% (44%)</li>
<li>Someone Else: 8% (8%)</li>
<li>Don't Know: 5% (4%)</li>
</ul>
Of the Democratic voters polled, 87% have Biden as their top pick. That&#8217;s in line with the previous poll. Eighty-nine percent of Republican voters polled have Trump as their top pick, which is in line with the previous poll.
Independent voters, who could decide the election, selected their 2024 pick as follows, with the June 25 results in parentheses:
<ul>
<li>Joe Biden: 33% (34%)</li>
<li>Donald Trump: 37% (37%)</li>
<li>Someone Else: 18% (18%)</li>
<li>Don't Know: 12% (11%)</li>
</ul>

Why It's Important: After <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39620336/biden-contemplates-future-in-2024-race-after-poor-debate-showing-report">the recent debate performance</a>, Biden could lose support in election polls and the next Morning Consult poll could show a much different result.
While Biden only trails by one percentage point in the latest Morning Consult poll, his campaign won't like several findings.
<ul>
<li>68% of voters say Biden is too old for the presidency, compared to 64% before the debate. </li>
<li>Among Democratic voters, 50% said Biden was too old, up seven percentage points from before the debate.</li>
<li>The poll found that only 35% of voters consider Biden to be in good health, compared to 41% before the presidential debate.</li>
<li>63% of Democratic voters see Biden in good health, compared to 75% before the debate.</li>
<li>When asked if Biden is mentally fit, 37% of voters said yes, compared to 43% before the debate. </li>
<li>Among Democratic voters, 68% said Biden is mentally fit, down from 77% before the debate.</li>
</ul>
Biden being mentally fit hit the lowest score for all voters and Democrats since polling began in 2020.
For a ninth consecutive week, Biden's net favorability rating has been ahead of Trump's, marking Biden's longest streak since April 2023.
However, voters were 31 points more likely of having heard, read or seen something negative than positive about Biden after the debate. This marked Biden's worst buzz rating since tracking for the 2024 election began in November 2022.

Dozens of high-power business leaders, including Walmart Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) heir Christy Walton, have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39641760/biden-vs-trump-incumbent-trails-by-widest-margin-in-this-election-cycle-but-more-than-half-unenthusi">signed a letter </a>to President Joe Biden asking him to give up his re-election bid, while praising his time in the Oval Office.
The letter, which was obtained by Bloomberg and signed by 168 executives and billionaires, credit Biden, 81, with "rescuing our democracy from the deepest threats it has known since the Civil War." 
But the letter, which came from the Leadership Now Project, also encouraged Biden to step aside by telling him, "to ensure that legacy is cemented, we ask that you pass the torch of leadership to the next generation of Democratic leaders by ending your reelection bid," Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-05/a-14-billion-walmart-heir-joins-novogratz-urging-biden-to-exit?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">reported.</a>

Other signatories include Michael Novogratz, CEO of Galaxy Investment Partners,&nbsp;and&nbsp;Paul Tagliabue, former commissioner of the National Football League.
Walton, 75, is worth about $14 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. The philanthropist is the widow of John T. Walton, the second son of Walmart Inc. founder Sam Walton.
 Walton, Novogratz and Tagliabue haven't donated to Biden's re-election campaign, Bloomberg reported.
The letter, which also told Biden that &#8220;nothing short of American democracy is at stake this November,&#8221; has come after Leadership Now <a href="https://www.leadershipnowproject.org/statement-a-new-nominee-to-protect-democracy">published </a>an unsigned statement on Wednesday that said business leaders have &#8220;heard from many individuals who share our deep concerns about the present course but fear speaking out.&#8221;
&#8220;But speaking out is our duty in a democracy and the time to do it is now,&#8221; Leadership Now said in its statement.
&#8220;We call on others to join us in making this urgent call.&#8221;
Leadership Now pointed to Biden&#8217;s performance in his June 27 debate with former President Donald Trump in requesting that the president give up his campaign for a second term.
&#8220;What we witnessed Thursday night in the presidential debate was deeply concerning,&#8221; the organization said.
&#8220;Donald Trump repeatedly lied, preyed on our worst fears and grievances, and refused to commit to accepting the 2024 election results. Unfortunately, President Biden failed to effectively make the case against Trump, and we now fear the risk of a devastating loss in November.&#8221;

Biden Should Step Aside, Say Business Leaders Including Walmart Heir

June&#8217;s Bureau of Labor Statistics jobs report <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39646053/mixed-picture-for-fed-june-payrolls-rise-more-than-expected-unemployment-rate-ticks-up-wage-grow">shows unemployment rising</a>, signaling a continued slowing in the U.S. economy. 
University of Pennsylvania Wharton professor Jeremy Siegel reacted to the data, recommending the Federal Reserve to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/07/39648975/fed-needs-to-frontload-interest-rate-cuts-say-4-economists-labor-markets-cooling-">cut interest rates</a> in response.
What Happened: Siegel <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/video/2024/07/05/we-are-in-a-slowing-economy-says-whartons-jeremy-siegel.html">appeared</a> on CNBC on Friday afternoon to discuss Friday&#8217;s &#8220;weak report.&#8221;
&#8220;I think it&#8217;s really time for Fed Chairman [Jerome] Powell to tee up in the July meeting a cut in September, and maybe another one in November,&#8221; Siegel said. &#8220;I think inflation is definitely under control and I don&#8217;t want to see this slowing economy turn into something worse.&#8221;
Siegel referenced economist Claudia Sahm&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/24/07/39649271/us-close-to-recession-warning-as-june-jobs-report-shows-rising-unemployment">leading &#8220;Sahm Rule&#8221;</a> as a means to predicting recessions. The threshold is met when the three-month moving average of the&nbsp;unemployment rate rises by 0.5% or more relative to the minimum of the three-month averages from the previous 12 months. 
June&#8217;s figure is very close to approaching the 0.50%. A recession still should not be considered likely, Siegel says, especially if a September rate cut by the Federal Reserve would forestall a recession.
&#8220;Why not be preemptive? The commodity market is under control, all the others are under control. We&#8217;ve talked so long about the fact that if they used realistic shelter costs in their CPI, they [inflation indicators] would be much lower than what they have now. I think he [Powell] can afford to bring us a more normal Fed Funds Rate in relationship to those long rates&#8230;&#8221;
Why it Matters: The market is currently predicting a 77% chance for a September interest rate cut with additional cuts possible in November, <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">according</a> to the CME Group.
