Shares of energy stocks are trading lower as oil falls amid US-Iran talks.

TD Cowen analyst Andrew M. Charles expects potential tariffs to impact <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/restaurants">new restaurant construction</a> costs more than ongoing operating expenses.
Since only 5% to 20% of cost of goods sold (COGS) typically comes from international sources, the overall COGS impact remains minimal. 
However, restaurants face steep tariffs on Chinese equipment (145%) and other materials like steel (25%) and potentially lumber, which together make up 40% to 50% of total new store construction costs.
Initial estimates indicate a 10% to 15% rise in build-out expenses. However, the projected effect on cash-on-cash returns appears manageable and unlikely to disrupt short- or medium-term development plans. 
Despite this, the analyst says returns would remain attractive. For example, a 40% cash-on-cash return could drop to 35% under current tariff pressures, still maintaining viability for expansion.
Sweetgreen Inc.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SG#NYSE">SG</a>) Infinite Kitchen concept faces elevated exposure to U.S.-China tariffs, as some of its proprietary components are sourced from China.

While the company disclosed potential build cost increases in its 10-K following the February 4 tariff hike, current 145% tariffs on Chinese imports may drive capital expenditures significantly above the initial $450,000–$550,000 guidance.
The analyst estimates that Infinite Kitchen can boost cash-on-cash (CoC) returns by about 600 basis points in the base case scenario, assuming a $450,000 build cost and a 10% restaurant margin lift. 
Even with build costs climbing as high as $750,000, CoC returns could remain accretive, provided less than half of the component cost is exposed to Chinese tariffs.
A projected 12.5% rise in construction costs would delay free cash flow (FCF) break-even timelines by about a year for several restaurant chains not yet generating positive FCF. 
Companies like Sweetgreen, First Watch Restaurant Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FWRG#NASDAQ">FWRG</a>), and Kura Sushi would see setbacks if they maintain current development plans.
Analysts forecast FWRG reaching FCF profitability in 2029 instead of 2028, while KRUS could be delayed until 2033, up from 2032. 
Although Sweetgreen's target of 2030 remains unchanged, the potential profitability level would be significantly lower due to cost pressures.
Other restaurant operators such as Dutch Bros Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BROS#NYSE">BROS</a>), Cava Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAVA#NYSE">CAVA</a>), Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WING#NASDAQ">WING</a>) are not expected to face meaningful impacts to their free cash flow forecasts from the projected increase in build costs, noted the analyst.

Tariff Pressures Could Reshape Restaurant Buildout Economics, Says Analyst

Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) is considering producing the next version of its popular RAV4 SUV in Kentucky, U.S., to bypass President&nbsp;Donald Trump&#8217;s 25% tariffs <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/toyota" rel="noreferrer noopener">on imported cars</a>.
If the Japanese automaker opts for the Kentucky plan, it could start production there in 2027, Reuters reported Monday, citing unnamed sources familiar with it.
Toyota spokesperson Ed Hellwig, in an emailed statement to Benzinga, said that the company has been weighing ways to improve its manufacturing efficiencies to best serve its customers and provide stable employment for its team members.
The company stated that it had nothing to announce at this time and planned not to comment on speculation.

However, Toyota plans to maintain overall vehicle output in Canada.
The automaker manufactures the SUV&#8217;s version in Kentucky, Canada and Japan. According to the report, it originally planned to export the new RAV4 from Canada and Japan to the U.S.
Toyota will showcase a restructured 2026 RAV4 later in 2025.
The RAV4 was the best-selling vehicle in the U.S. in 2024, Reuters cites JATO Dynamics. Toyota sold over 475,000 RAV4s in the U.S. last year, accounting for ~20% of its total vehicle sales.
Toyota has 11 plants in the U.S. In the first quarter of 2025, Toyota Motor North America&#8217;s (TMNA) U.S. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44590380/whats-going-on-with-toyota-motor-stock-today" rel="noreferrer noopener">sales rose by</a> 0.9% on a volume basis to 570,269 vehicles compared to last year. On a daily selling rate (DSR) basis, first-quarter sales rose 3.6%.
Electrified vehicle sales under TMNA surged by 39.6% (volume basis), representing 50.6% of the total sales volume.
Goldman Sachs&nbsp;projected&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44645590/toyotas-gr86-yuzu-edition-brings-sleek-design-performance-upgrades-only-860-units-available-in-north-america" rel="noreferrer noopener">imported&nbsp;vehicle prices</a> to surge by $5,000 to $15,000, while even U.S.-built cars could see cost hikes of $3,000 to $8,000 due to foreign-made parts.
According to JPMorgan&#8217;s Akira Kishimoto, Japanese automakers could face a potential hit of 4.46 trillion yen (about $29.44 billion). Given its resilience and strong fundamentals, Toyota remains JPMorgan&#8217;s top pick.
Price Action: TM stock is down 1.51% at $173.71 at last check Monday.

Shares of stocks in the broader financial sector are trading lower amid overall market weakness amid President Trump's criticism of Fed Chair Powell.

BofA Securities analyst Justin Post maintained a Buy rating on 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>) with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GOOGL/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast of $185</a> on Monday.
Google kicks off Online advertising earnings season on April 24. With tough comps &amp; tariff uncertainty, Post recently lowered his 2025 forecast.
The analyst projects first-quarter revenue and GAAP EPS of $74.1 billion and $1.93, below the Street&#8217;s $75.5 billion and $2.01, with search revenues up 7% (versus the Street&#8217;s 9%).
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/04/44848020/google-genai-ai-cloud-services-drive-analyst-confidence-in-long-term-growth" rel="noreferrer noopener">Google GenAI, AI Cloud Services Drive Analyst Confidence In Long-Term Growth</a>
He stated that the Street has been lowering expectations as business sentiment has deteriorated.
Street could be looking for 7-8% search growth, and an in-line first quarter would likely be viewed as a positive. However, a miss, even if macro-related, could fuel already elevated competitive/regulatory concerns.
With a negative tariff ad spend impact (PDD Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pdd#NASDAQ">PDD</a>) Temu/Shein ad spend down), growing competitor AI traffic, and cautious 3P search data, outlook uncertainty is elevated.
For the second quarter, Post expects some spending pressure in eCommerce verticals and for YouTube brand spend. His forecasts are below the Street at revenue and GAAP EPS of $76.2 billion and $1.98 versus $79.7 billion and $2.15.
That said, Amazon&#8217;s eCommerce and Netflix&#8217;s recent ad commentary suggest some pockets of resilience, and the analyst expects Google search ad spend to perform relatively well.
First-quarter positives include near-term eCommerce ad spend strength (frontloading), low expectations given 3P reports of click share loss, and cloud strength from added capacity.
Post expects Google to see relatively less topline pressure in the current uncertain macro than peers, given its higher performance-driven ad mix (versus brand).
Also, fourth-quarter call commentary was positive on AI Overviews usage and monetization. Additionally, the analyst noted Alphabet has greater flexibility for self-help measures to optimize for EPS if macro pressures persist.
At ~$153, Post noted the stock as attractive at 16 times his lower fiscal 2026 GAAP EPS (or 10 times core business).
Price Action: GOOGL stock is down 2.84% at $146.89 at the last check on Monday.

Google Parent Alphabet's Topline Can Withstand Pressure In Uncertain Macro Scenario Compared To Peers: Analyst

Betting markets are heating up over who might replace Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell as President Donald Trump escalates his campaign to reshape <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/jerome-powell">the central bank&#8217;s leadership.</a>
On Kalshi, a CFTC-regulated prediction platform, traders are ramping up bets on who Trump will nominate next to lead the world's most powerful central bank.
Powell's term is set to end in May 2026, yet speculators currently foresee nearly a 1-in-4 chance that Trump will remove him before year's end, despite legal and institutional hurdles.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Publicly Attacks Powell Over Interest-Rate Policy</h3>
The surge in speculation follows a week of political fireworks, where Trump not only called for "preemptive" interest rate cuts but also accused Powell of past political favoritism. 
On Monday, the president blasted Powell on Truth Social. "There can be a SLOWING of the economy unless Mr. Too Late, a major loser, lowers interest rates, NOWMr. Too Late, a major loser, lowers interest rates, NOW.&#8221;
Powell has always been ‘Too Late,' except when it came to the Election period when he lowered in order to help Sleepy Joe Biden, later Kamala, get elected," Trump said.
The feud has triggered concerns about central bank independence, with Trump's economic adviser Kevin Hassett confirming the administration is "considering" removing Powell early — a move legal scholars say would test constitutional norms.
Before the political firestorm, Powell appeared at the Economic Club of New York, where he issued a stark warning on Trump's tariff agenda. 
He said that new tariffs are poised to create upward pressure on inflation while simultaneously slowing growth, potentially undermining the Fed's dual mandate of stable prices and maximum employment.
This could force the central bank to prioritize whichever variable — inflation or the labor market — is further away from target, Powell indicated. The Chairman also reiterated that there is no rush to cut rates amid the current economic uncertainty.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Who Are The Contenders?</h3>
Kevin Warsh: A former Fed governor between 2006 and 2011, Warsh was a vocal critic of quantitative easing and has expressed concerns over loose monetary policy. While historically hawkish, he is politically well-connected and previously advised the Trump administration, making him a potential pick to reshape the Fed's direction—even if that includes adapting to Trump's push for lower rates.
Kevin Hassett: An economist who served as chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers under Trump (2017–2019), Hassett is closely aligned with Trump's economic agenda and is currently Director of the National Economic Council. His influence has grown in recent months.
Judy Shelton: An outspoken advocate for a return to the gold standard, Shelton was nominated by Trump to the Fed board in 2020 but failed to secure Senate confirmation. Her views on monetary policy and Fed independence are controversial but align with Trump's skepticism of current Fed leadership.
Larry Kudlow: Former director of the National Economic Council under Trump and now a Fox Business host, Kudlow is a long-time supply-side economist and advocate for pro-growth, low-tax, low-rate policies. Although not a central banker, his media profile and loyalty to Trump make him a viable political pick.
Arthur Laffer: The father of the "Laffer Curve" and a supply-side icon, Laffer was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Trump in 2019. While he has never served in a central banking role, his ideological alignment with Trump's views makes him a symbolic candidate.
Jerome Powell: Powell's odds have dropped drastically amid Trump's repeated verbal attacks. While the Fed chair has said he intends to serve his full term, markets view renomination as increasingly unlikely.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Betting On Powell's Successor</h3>
Here's where the money is going on Kalshi's "Who will Trump nominate as Fed Chair?" market.

Speculators Ramp Up Bets On Who Will Succeed Fed Chair Powell As Trump's Pressure Campaign Intensifies

The SPDR Gold Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NASDAQ">GLD</a>) is up 3.3% to $316.15 during Monday&#8217;s session as investors flee traditional U.S. assets for the session <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44904179/wall-street-sinks-dollar-slides-as-trump-ramps-up-fed-attacks-whats-driving-markets-monday">amid rising political instability</a> and inflation concerns. 
What To Know: Gold prices to an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44903750/gold-price-soars-to-record-highs-eyes-best-2-month-rally-since-2011-on-blockbuster-etf-buying">all-time high of $3,410 per ounce</a>, capping a nearly 20% rally since March—GLD's strongest two-month run since 2011.
The surge comes amid renewed doubts over U.S. economic leadership. President Donald Trump's public feud with Fed Chair Jerome Powell, including calls for immediate rate cuts and threats to remove Powell, has rattled markets. This political interference, paired with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44848474/fed-chair-powell-says-tariffs-lead-to-temporary-rise-in-inflation">ongoing inflation fears</a>, has eroded confidence in the dollar and U.S. Treasuries.
As a result, investors are turning to gold ETFs. GLD alone has seen over <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44903750/gold-price-soars-to-record-highs-eyes-best-2-month-rally-since-2011-on-blockbuster-etf-buying">$8.3 billion in inflows since January</a>, highlighting robust institutional and retail demand. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/04/44905838/netflix-playing-offense-while-stock-plays-defense-6-analysts-on-q1-results-advertising-growth-ahead">Analysts</a> say this rally is structurally driven, not speculative, and may have further room to run—with Goldman Sachs forecasting $3,700 gold by year-end.
With the S&amp;P 500 tumbled 2.9% and the Nasdaq-100 fell 3.1% Monday afternoon, gold remains a rare bright spot, on Monday reaffirming its role as a safe-haven during times of financial and political stress.

JD.com has promised to provide sufficient orders to couriers banned by other platforms. It aims to increase full-time riders to 100,000 from 50,000 in the next quarter.
JD.com has been expanding in the delivery and logistics space not just organically, but by making major investments in the last five years.
It had invested more than $800 million in Dada Nexus, the operator of the rapid delivery service <a href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3126646/jdcom-invests-us800-million-last-mile-delivery-service-fill-gap-its" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">JD Daojia</a> in 2020.
Last year, it paid around $892 million to acquire the full stake in Kuayue-Express, which it did not already own.
Recently, President Donald Trump <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44646719/pdd-stock-drops-as-trumps-new-tariffs-threaten-chinese-e-commerce-giants" rel="noreferrer noopener">announced sweeping tariffs</a> on&nbsp;imports from China, raising the total duties on Chinese goods to as high as 245% in some cases, prompting criticism from Beijing.
Goldman analyst Andrew Tilton expects the Chinese government to retaliate with some targeted tariffs on US products as well as non-tariff measures like export controls.
It is worth noting that billionaire investor David Tepper&#8217;s&nbsp;Appaloosa Management increased its stakes in prominent&nbsp;Chinese e-commerce names during the fourth quarter of 2024.
On the other hand, American investor Carson Block, the founder of&nbsp;Muddy Waters Research, had snubbed China&#8217;s&nbsp;stock market rally, citing unreliability in corporate accounting and geopolitical risks.
Price Action: JD stock is down 3.30% at $33.60 at the last check on Monday.

Switching jobs can be stressful, but if you job hop correctly, you can end up with a higher salary. This strategy can be beneficial in the long run, but it's not easy for everyone to take the leap. Making the switch gets even more difficult if you like your current job.
A speech therapist in the healthcare industry recently turned to the Dave Ramsey Reddit community. She enjoys her boss, co-workers, and job. However, she has an opportunity to <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/DaveRamsey/comments/1k1f69a/would_this_be_worth_it_to_you_to_get_out_of_debt/">make more money by getting into travel therapy</a>.&nbsp;
"Right now, we don't feel financially stressed," she stated.

The Redditor can earn more from travel work, but a good job has to come first. Even though the speech therapist enjoys her job, it's still good to find a higher-paying opportunity. Her co-workers may not stay at the company forever, and if she leaves on good terms, she can always go back once she makes more money.
Now is the time to make as much money as possible. The couple is squaring off against more than $200,000 in combined debt. They are living frugally, which is helping them make the current payments. The couple pays $900 per month for rent and utilities. However, it will get more difficult to live like that when they start a family.

The Redditor mentioned that she wants to start a family in the next two to three years. That's enough time to make a big dent in the debt. Other expenses will sprout like weeds when they start a family. While there are many joys of starting a family, you have to prepare for that reality.
Instead of thinking about how life is now, think about how you want it to be in the next 10, 20, and 30 years. Going up the corporate ladder and growing your career makes it easier to boost your income. It's also important to note that many wives want to spend more time with their children when the time arrives. Working harder now can make you more available for your children in the future.
It's also worth noting what type of work the fiance does and how much he can advance in his career. He might be able to find higher-paying work that allows him to get rid of his debt sooner. Then, he can use extra money to chip away at the principal on her student loans.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Hunker Down When Your Current Income</h2>
The Redditor also mentioned that they make $120,000 per year after taxes. While $900 per month on rent and utilities is a great deal, some commenters suggested that they cut down the expenses even more.&nbsp;
"Live on $48,000 per year and pay it down in three years," one commenter suggested.
The couple already spends $10,800 per year on rent and utilities. The remaining $37,200 in this equation comes to $3,100 per month. They still have to buy essentials like food and water, but they can trim down on other expenses like travel and entertainment. The Redditor doesn't break down how the couple spends money, but this is a good time to be aggressive with non-essential expenses.
Getting out of debt is the priority. It can mean taking on a higher-paying job, and it's great to capitalize on an opportunity if it arrives. However, it's just as important to review expenses and see how much the couple can save.&nbsp;
Putting the remaining $72,000 toward student loans each year can get the couple out of debt within four years. Then, they will be in a better position to raise a family with less financial stress.&nbsp;

A Redditor Asks If She Should Leave A Secure Job To Get Out Of Debt Before Starting A Family: 'Right Now We Don't Feel Financially Stressed'

Walmart Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) and Target Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>) shares spiked earlier today but have have since reversed and begun trading lower. President Donald Trump is set to meet with executives from these companies and other major retailers, according to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-21/trump-to-meet-walmart-target-execs-as-tariff-angst-spreads">Bloomberg.</a>
What To Know: Trump is scheduled to meet with executives from Walmart, Target, The Home Depot, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) and Lowe's Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>) to discuss how tariffs are affecting their operations. The meeting follows a 90-day suspension of planned tariff increases for most U.S. trading partners, excluding China.
Both the Consumer Confidence Index and the Expectations Index declined in March amid concerns about tariff-driven price increases and inflation. The Consumer Confidence Index <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44475192/consumer-confidence-falls-to-lowest-since-2022-as-inflation-tariff-worries-grow">fell by 7.2 points</a> to 92.9 in March, reaching its lowest level since late 2022 and representing its fourth consecutive monthly decline. The Expectations Index, which reflects consumer outlook on business, income and labor market conditions over the next six months, dropped to 65.2, below the 80 level often seen as a sign of a coming recession. 
In response to price hike concerns, consumers rushed to buy products such as cars and electronics in March to avoid the full impact of tariffs. U.S. retail sales rose 1.4% that month compared to February, while vehicle purchases jumped 5.3%.
Walmart and Target stocks may have initially risen on optimism surrounding the meeting, but have since pulled back as investors weigh the potential outcomes.

Price Action: At the time of writing, Walmart stock is trading 1.49% lower at $91.83 and Target shares are moving 0.06% lower at $93.05, according to data from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro.</a>

What's Going On With Walmart and Target Stock Monday?

Netflix (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) reported earnings last Thursday and the response has been positive among traders. The stock has bounced up, briefly recovering the $1,000 price target and now hovering just below that level.
The broad market remains volatile amid the trade war with China, but based on Monday&#8217;s price action, we may have a tradable bottom. However, the topside could be limited in the near term.
That&#8217;s the perfect setup for this &#8220;back ratio&#8221; trade.
Netflix&#8217;s relative resistance zone sits right around $1060, while support is well below near $700.
The back ratio call spread involves buying one call option just below that resistance zone. At the same time, selling two calls just above that zone, like so:
<ul>
<li>Buy to open 1 NFLX 960 calls </li>
<li>Sell to open 2 NFLX 1080 calls </li>
</ul>
I&#8217;ve picked September expiration dates to ‘jump' over the volatility we are likely to see in the summer, which remains unknown. The back ratio holds risk but allows us to finance this bullish position into the future.&nbsp;
This trade requires a margin if the stock is not already in your portfolio. For every call we buy, we sell two calls at higher strikes allowing us to finance part of the position. 
As for cost, the back ratio above holds a current credit of $11.55 at the time of this writing and will define the maximum credit if prices fall below $960 into expiration. 
The breakeven price of the stock at expiration on this trade is $948.45 at this writing, so we will be in profit above this price into expiration.&nbsp;
The maximum profit for this position is calculated in the following way: the long strike $960 subtracted from the short strike $1080 is $120. This difference times 100 yields $1,200 plus the credit we collected at the trade outset, $1,155 is $1,355. If we do not breach the $1,080 price, we achieve maximum gains for the position. 
If we do not own the stock, we will have a theoretically unlimited risk exposure, as prices could move dramatically, so we must calculate where our returns diminish. Every penny above the stock price of $1,080 reduces our profit. If the stock rises past $1,080, a trade adjustment is advised. 
As with all option plays, there are many ways to leave the trade, but I will discuss the following:&nbsp;
<ol>
<li>Sell the back ratio when it has accumulated a predefined profit for your trading style. We have time on our side with this kind of trade, so as long as support holds, the trade premise remains valid. Set an alert for $1,080 as there is only risk if the stock rises sharply and stays there. </li>
<li>Sell the back ratio when there are less than 21 days to expiration as volatility expansion will affect these positions significantly. </li>
<li>Sell the back ratio when it hits a predefined stop or risk limit for your trading style. This trade will erode profits the further above $1,080 it climbs. </li>
<li>&#x2A;&#x2A; You could turn this into a butterfly by buying the strike at $1200, but this becomes a debit and the risk will now be the outlay of cash to purchase the position.</li>
</ol>

Trader Notes: Crypto investor and entrepreneur Ted Pillows pointed out that Bitcoin is catching up with gold's rally, while the S&amp;P 500 continues to trend lower, suggesting that Bitcoin has started to decouple from equities. 
He believes this signals the start of a meaningful Bitcoin rally from current levels.

Bitcoin, Dogecoin Up, Ethereum, XRP Flat On Slow Monday Start

Shares of PepsiCo Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEP#NASDAQ">PEP</a>) shares fell 1.24% to $141.07 Monday afternoon as political and renewed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">tariff risks</a> rattled investor sentiment across sectors.
The decline comes amid a broader selloff triggered by President Donald Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44904179/wall-street-sinks-dollar-slides-as-trump-ramps-up-fed-attacks-whats-driving-markets-monday">public attack</a> on Fed Chair Jerome Powell and hints of potential dismissal, raising fears of eroded central bank independence. 
What To Know: For multinationals like internationally, a weakening U.S. dollar and policy unpredictability threaten pricing power and cost stability.
Moreover, Powell's warning that tariffs may <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44899617/90-chance-of-recession-due-to-trumps-tariffs-sharp-slowdown-is-coming-economist-says">drive inflation higher</a>, potentially in a more persistent fashion, spells trouble for Pepsi's global supply chain. With commodity and packaging costs already elevated, renewed trade frictions could further compress margins.
PepsiCo also faces heightened labor risk from immigration restrictions and policy-induced hiring slowdowns, both of which could disrupt its U.S. logistics and manufacturing operations.
With inflation still above the Fed's 2% target and rate cuts unlikely, consumer demand may weaken—putting pressure on non-essential purchases like soft drinks and snacks.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy PEP Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for PepsiCo &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
In the case of PepsiCo, which is trading at $141.07 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 0.71 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, PEP has a 52-week high of $183.39 and a 52-week low of $138.33.

Earnings season is ramping up, and this week's spotlight is on Tesla. Alongside it, we'll also hear from major consumer-facing companies like Verizon, Procter &amp; Gamble, and Chipotle. These reports will offer valuable insight into the health and behavior of the U.S. consumer.
Tesla's report stands out as particularly compelling. Over the past year, Elon Musk has become more active in the political arena. While the outcome of the November election initially seemed favorable, the stock has since declined by over 50%, and internal challenges have mounted. Investors will be looking to this week's report for signs of a potential turnaround, or further confirmation of instability.
Chipotle and P&amp;G also deserve attention. Both companies are well-positioned to comment on real-time consumer demand. Any mention of a demand slowdown will be key, especially as many anticipate the start of a broader economic cool-down.
On the macro front, all eyes will be on services and manufacturing PMI data. These indicators will provide a fresh pulse check on economic activity. I'm especially watching the manufacturing data for early signs of impact from the new tariffs introduced earlier this month.
Lastly, a trade deal may be announced in the coming days. It's been over a week since the pause on reciprocal tariffs, and weekend developments suggest the first deal, likely with Japan, could be finalized soon. This would lay the foundation for future trade agreements and potentially reduce some near-term uncertainty.
My advice? Focus on the positive and keep an optimistic outlook.

Gav Blaxberg On Likely First Tariff Trade Deal, Key Earnings

MP Materials Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MP#NYSE">MP</a>) shares are falling Monday following the company&#8217;s announcement last week that it has halted shipments of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/b44871540/mp-materials-accelerates-strategy-to-reindustrialize-the-rare-earth-supply-chain">rare earth concentrate to China</a>.
What To Know: MP Materials detailed its strategy to reindustrialize the rare earth supply chain within the United States in a press release issued late last week. 
The decision comes in response to China&#8217;s imposition of 125% retaliatory tariffs on U.S. rare earth imports, which MP Materials said is &#8220;neither commercially rational nor aligned with America&#8217;s national interest.&#8221;
The company has invested nearly $1 billion to restore the full rare earth supply chain domestically.&nbsp;Currently, its California refinery processes nearly half of its production, with most of that material sold into markets outside China, including Japan, South Korea and the United States.&nbsp;
MP Materials is also accelerating downstream operations by ramping up oxide production, fast-tracking heavy rare earth separation and bringing magnet production online in Texas.
This strategic shift aligns with broader U.S. efforts to reduce reliance on Chinese rare earth processing amid escalating trade tensions. As the only scaled rare earth production source in the U.S., MP Materials&#8217; move is seen as a significant step toward securing a resilient domestic supply chain for critical materials used in electrification and advanced technologies.​
Metals and mining companies initially surged last week following reports that the Trump administration planned to stockpile deep-sea metals&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44650952/china-restricts-rare-earth-exports-to-us-as-part-of-tariff-retaliation" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">to counter China</a>.
Check This Out: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44902888/kevin-oleary-says-chinas-actions-have-wiped-out-millions-of-american-companies-i-dont-know-why-anyone-is-okay-with-it">Kevin O&#8217;Leary Says China&#8217;s Actions Have &#8216;Wiped Out&#8217; Millions Of American Companies—&#8217;I Don&#8217;t Know Why Anyone Is Okay With It&#8217;</a>
People familiar with the matter said the move was focused on countering China's rare earth supply chains and battery mineral dominance as the U.S. aims to become self-sufficient when it comes to critical minerals supply.
Investors are closely watching how these developments will impact MP Materials&#8217; financial performance and the broader rare earth market. The company&#8217;s focus on expanding domestic capabilities may position it favorably in the long term, despite potential short-term challenges associated with the cessation of exports to China.​
The recent headlines surrounding rare earth supply chains has also sparked significant discussion across various social media platforms.&nbsp;On X, MP Materials&#8217; official account shared the press release, garnering attention from industry analysts and investors.&nbsp;Additionally, the news has been widely shared and discussed on Stocktwits, LinkedIn and Reddit, with users debating the implications for the U.S. rare earth supply chain and the broader geopolitical landscape.
MP Materials is scheduled to release its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings">first-quarter 2025 financial results</a> on May 8, which will provide further insight into the company&#8217;s performance amid these strategic shifts. Analysts currently expect the company to report a loss of 11 cents per share on revenue of $68.68 million, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
