<p>Alcoa is a vertically integrated aluminum company whose operations include bauxite mining, alumina refining, and manufacturing primary aluminum. It is the world's largest bauxite miner and alumina refiner by production volume, and the eighth-largest aluminum producer. Profits are closely tied to prevailing commodity prices along the aluminum supply chain.Alcoa was the first mass producer of aluminum, launching the world-changing Hall-Heroult smelting process in the 1880s, making aluminum affordable. It listed as a public company in 1925. In 2016, Alcoa spun off its automotive and aerospace metal parts segment to focus on mining, smelting, and refining.

Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.</p>

Fed Chair Powell Says Compared To Sept 2024 When We Cut Rates, Inflation Forecast For The Current Year Is For Higher Inflation From Tariffs; Since December, We've Learned Tariffs Will Be Larger Than Forecasters Thought; We Will Restore 2% Inflation On Durable, Sustainable Basis

<p>In the current session, <strong>iQIYI Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IQ#NASDAQ">IQ</a>)</strong> is trading at $1.68, after a <strong>2.89%</strong> decrease. Over the past month, the stock fell by <strong>1.75%</strong>, and in the past year, by <strong>57.68%</strong>. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. </p>
<p>

<h3>iQIYI P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>
<p>The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. </p>
<p>iQIYI has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of <strong>372.26</strong> of the Entertainment industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. </p>
<p>
</p><p><img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750273227_1.png" alt="Guage" /></p>

<p>In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions. </p>

Fed Chair Powell Says Can Take Time To See How Large Inflation Effects Will Be; Will Make Smarter Decision If We Wait A Couple Of Months; We Have To Be Forward Looking

<p>As <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/25/06/45983526/trump-wants-an-end-not-a-ceasefire-for-the-israel-iran-war-what-that-means-for-etfs">geopolitical tensions spiked</a> last week, <strong>Bitcoin </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and the broader crypto market experienced a sharp wave of bearish sentiment.  Will BTC repeat the historical risk-off-then-stabilize pattern like it did in earlier geopolitical crises?</p>
<p><strong>What Happened:</strong> According to Santiment&#8217;s detailed <a href="https://x.com/santimentfeed/status/1935375698828399046">post</a> on Wednesday, a leading on-chain analytics platform, Bitcoin's current price pattern resembles its behaviour during previous geopolitical flashpoints.</p>
<p>From June 12 to June 15, Bitcoin dropped 4%–6%, erasing over $200 billion from the total crypto market cap. Bearish sentiment spiked across social channels and trading platforms, reinforcing a classic &#8220;risk-off&#8221; response, where investors flee volatile assets amid uncertainty.</p>
<p>Yet despite the panic, Bitcoin stabilized between $104,000 and $105,000, suggesting a rebound in confidence. Two factors played a major role in this: sustained institutional demand via spot Bitcoin ETF inflows and no immediate military escalation after initial conflict reports.</p>

<p><strong>Why It Matters:</strong> Santiment data observed Bitcoin's similar reaction in the past:</p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Russia-Ukraine War (Feb 2022): Bitcoin plunged initially but recovered shortly afterward. However, Fed rate hikes later dragged markets lower.</li>
<li>Israel–Palestine Conflict (Oct 2023): Bitcoin fell around 7% before regaining stability within days.</li>
</ul>
<p>These past events suggest that Bitcoin is resilient in the face of geopolitical shock, especially when institutional demand holds strong.</p>
<p>While current volatility has cooled, macro risks remain. Trade policy uncertainty, tariff concerns, and inflation expectations continue to weigh on sentiment. The result: short-term price swings, even if the long-term trend remains intact.</p>
