Google parent Alphabet, Inc. (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>) announced on Tuesday that it has signed an agreement to acquire cloud security platform Wiz for $32 billion. Experts weigh in on Google's<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/03/44376743/google-parent-alphabet-to-acquire-wiz-in-32-billion-deal-its-biggest-bet-yet"> largest acquisition ever.&nbsp;</a>
Expert Ideas: J.P. Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth sees the Wiz acquisition as strengthening Google's cybersecurity suit and allowing for safer and more efficient multicloud operations.  
"We believe the Wiz acquisition will further strengthen Google's multicloud value proposition &amp; deepen its enterprise relationships as Wiz is used by over 50% of Fortune 100 companies," the analyst wrote.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Anmuth noted the expected closing date for the deal is 2026 and believes the longer-than-usual closing reflects the regulatory scrutiny the acquisition will face. He sees the deal as a type of bellwether for the Trump administration's tolerance for large-scale mergers and acquisitions, which will have broader implications for other large-cap tech companies. 
&#8220;This deal will get careful scrutiny,&#8221; Michael Carrier, an antitrust law professor at Rutgers Law School, told Yahoo Finance.&nbsp;
&#8220;But at the end of the day, I believe it is likely to be approved given an anticipated less aggressive blocking of mergers and the AI angle,&#8221; Carrier added.&nbsp;
GOOG shares fell 2.34% on Tuesday following the announcement of the deal, which is Google's largest ever and also the largest ever in the cybersecurity sector.&nbsp;

Beyond The Numbers: 7 Analysts Discuss Align Technology Stock

Nicknamed "Larry," a 560-pound Twitter blue bird logo from the San Francisco headquarters is up for auction.

While many still call the social media platform Twitter, their messages on the app tweets, the official Twitter name and blue bird logo is dead to Musk and the company.
As spotted by <a href="https://www.engadget.com/social-media/the-560-pound-twitter-logo-from-its-san-francisco-headquarters-is-up-for-auction-180326992.html?src=rss">Engadget</a>, RR Auctions is <a href="https://www.rrauction.com/auctions/lot-detail/349988607146320-twitter-inc-official-bird-logo-fascia-sign-an-iconic-fixture-from-the-companys-market-square-headquarters-in-san-francisco/">auctioning </a>off the 12-foot-tall by eight-foot-long logo that previously adorned the San Francisco headquarters. The sign is one of two birds that was previously located at the headquarters on Market Street.
"Incredible official Twitter Inc. ‘bird log' fascia sign formerly displayed on the exterior of the social media giant's San Francisco headquarters – obtained from Elon Musk's ‘rebranding auction' in September 2023," the auction listing reads.
According to the listing, the company nicknamed the logo Larry after former NBA great Larry Bird.
At the time of writing, the high bid is at $21,664 with the auction set to end on Aug. 20. RR Auctions has an estimated value of $40,000 for the listing, suggesting bids could nearly double in the coming days. 
The auction winner will be responsible for the costs of moving the sign from a storage facility in San Francisco.
The auction includes a YouTube video showing the work done to remove the logo from the building, including a crane and multiple workers.

Why It's Important: After the rebranding, Musk decided to sell off many old Twitter logos and office products.
Among the most coveted were the large Twitter logos. A large Twitter logo from inside the office sold for $100,000. The outside logos sold for undisclosed prices.
While the company has a new name and logo, the iconic Twitter logo and blue bird memorabilia could become sought after by collectors for years, similar to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43926987/steve-jobs-signed-apple-business-card-valued-at-60000-sells-for-much-more-at-auction-heres-the-winning-bid"> old business cards,</a> magazines and autographs of top technology CEOs and founders.

Twitter Blue Bird Logo From HQ Up For Auction: Here's How Much Social Media History Could Set You Back

Speculators are dialing back expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate cuts in 2025 ahead of the March Federal Open Market Committee meeting, as inflation concerns cast doubt on the central bank's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44364688/feds-march-meeting-expected-to-signal-no-hurry-on-rate-cuts-as-powell-likely-to-tread-carefully">willingness to ease policy.</a>
Data from Kalshi, a CFTC-regulated betting platform, indicates that traders are shifting bets toward fewer than three rate cuts. 
The most favored scenario now anticipates two cuts, carrying a 24% implied probability. Notably, the likelihood of just one rate cut jumped seven percentage points in a single day to 19%.
Betting-implied odds currently indicate that the most preferred outcome among retail bettors is two rate cuts at a 24% implied chance.
The Fed's December &#8220;dot plot&#8221; signaled a median expectation for two rate cuts in 2025, a downgrade from the four cuts it had projected in September. 
While retail bettors have turned more cautious, broader financial markets remain slightly more optimistic. Fed funds futures, tracked by the CME FedWatch tool, fully price in three rate cuts by December 2024, with a 35% probability of a fourth cut. 
This discrepancy suggests that institutional investors may still believe in a more accommodative Fed policy than retail traders do.
<iframe loading="lazy" src="https://kalshi.com/external-widgets/events/KXRATECUTCOUNT-25DEC31?color_scheme=light&#038;widget_size=large&#038;utm_campaign=benzinga_widget" width="552px" height="400px" style="border:0"></iframe>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What's Driving The Shift?</h3>
One factor weighing on rate-cut expectations is the risk that the Fed could revise inflation projections higher, particularly in response to higher trade tariffs mandated by President Donald Trump. 
December, the central bank had already raised its 2025 inflation forecast, projecting headline Personal Consumption Expenditures inflation at 2.5%, up from 2.1% in September. Core PCE inflation, which excludes food and energy prices, was also revised up to 2.5% from 2.2%.
According to both Bank of America and Goldman Sachs estimates, inflation estimates could be upwardly revised to 2.7% on Wednesday. 
Betting-implied odds tracked by Kalshi reveal that speculators expect inflation to average 3% in 2025. 
<iframe loading="lazy" src="https://kalshi.com/external-widgets/events/KXACPI-2025?color_scheme=light&#038;widget_size=large&#038;utm_campaign=benzinga_widget" width="552px" height="400px" style="border:0"></iframe>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A Dovish Tilt Or Continued Caution?</h3>
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has maintained a wait-and-see stance. Last week, he reiterated that the Fed does not need to rush into rate changes, reinforcing the need for more economic clarity before making any moves.
The consensus among economists is that the Fed will hold rates steady at 4.25%-4.50% at this week's meeting. Betting markets imply a near-unanimous probability of no change, but the focus will be on the Fed's revised economic outlook.
"The Fed will most likely indicate they remain data dependent," Chris Fasciano, chief market strategist at Commonwealth Financial Network, said in an email.
"Considering the better-than-expected CPI and PPI data released last week, if this trend continues it should allow the Fed to continue their rate cut path later in the year."
"The US Federal Reserve is widely expected to stay put this month. The market's focus will be on the guidance and the updated FOMC forecast," said Julien Lafargue, chief market strategist at Barclays Private Bank and Wealth Management.
He added that the Fed's projections may reflect weaker GDP growth, but the dot plot is unlikely to show a major shift.
The U.S. dollar index – as tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>) – fell to a six-month low on Tuesday, as fears over U.S. economic performance persist among investors.
