Asteroid 2024 YR4, first spotted in December 2024 by a Chilean telescope, originally alarmed scientists due to its likelihood of striking Earth in 2032. It rose to the top of the Torino Impact Hazard Scale, prompting a wave of international monitoring.
Recent observations have ruled out the possibility of an Earth impact, but the asteroid's chances of hitting the moon have almost doubled, according to a report by Fox News.
What Happened: Asteroid 2024 YR4, upon discovery, was initially ranked as a high-priority object on hazard monitoring systems. Additional observations over the next few months, especially from the James Webb Space Telescope, enabled scientists to get a clearer picture of its path and size.
Since then, it has been concluded that the asteroid won't be coming close enough to Earth to pose a threat.

Why It Matters: The improved data also showed that 2024 YR4 is roughly the size of a 10-story building, which could have caused a serious impact if it had collided with Earth. While chances of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/25/03/44253929/space-etfs-rocked-by-intuitive-machines-lunar-mishap-is-there-a-safer-bet">collision with the Moon</a> have increased, NASA has highlighted that even if the asteroid were to hit the Moon, no changes would be made to its orbit.
With Earth in the clear, scientists continue to monitor 2024 YR4 using space-based tools like the James Webb Telescope. The asteroid is expected to move out of view but is likely to reappear in 2028. Until then, astronomers will keep tracking its movements and learning more from this unexpected near miss.

Asteroid Once Feared To Hit Earth Now Headed For The Moon, NASA Says: 'It's No Longer A Threat To Us'

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) called on Republicans to &#8220;put the American people over blind loyalty to Donald Trump&#8221; on Monday as U.S. markets continue reeling from the president&#8217;s sweeping tariff threats.
What Happened: &#8220;Since Trump announced his worldwide tariffs: markets tanked, retirement accounts took a hit, and Americans are panicked,&#8221; Warren wrote on X. &#8220;We can pass a resolution right now to stop this chaos.&#8221;
Warren&#8217;s comments come as the Dow Jones Industrial Average, tracked by SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIA#NYSE">DIA</a>), fell nearly 1% Monday after dropping more than 1,700 points earlier in the session. The broader market, measured by the S&amp;P 500, tracked by SPDR S&amp;P 500 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), has seen two-day losses exceeding 10% &#8211; its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44677506/china-resolutely-opposes-trumps-50-tariff-threat-vows-countermeasures-as-trade-tensions-jolt-markets">worst performance since March 2020</a>.

Economist Nouriel Roubini described the situation as &#8220;a three-way game of chicken&#8221; between Trump, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, and Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Warren urged Congress to use its authority to halt the tariffs through a resolution stopping Trump&#8217;s use of emergency powers. &#8220;We don&#8217;t need to write a whole new law,&#8221; she said. &#8220;We just need a spine.&#8221;

The U.S. stock market is exhibiting a &#8220;risk-off&#8221; sentiment as the gold-to-silver ratio triggers a warning signal reminiscent of the 2020 and 2008 crises, according to analysis from Bravos Research.
What Happened: In an X thread, the firm highlighted a recent breakout in the gold-to-silver ratio, a metric closely watched to gauge market risk appetite. This signal indicates that traders are increasingly favoring the safe-haven asset gold over the more volatile silver.
The ratio stood at 99.59 as of Tuesday, 3:05 a.m. ET. This ratio represents the number of ounces of silver that are equivalent in value to one ounce of gold.
Bravos Research points out that similar breakouts in the gold-to-silver ratio preceded significant market downturns, including the 2022 bear market, the 2020 COVID-19 crash, and the 2008 Great Financial Crisis.
The current breakout, following a period of consolidation since 2022, suggests a potential shift towards greater market instability and a move away from riskier assets.

Why It Matters: The analysis also notes that the current market sell-off, characterized by declining bond yields alongside falling stock prices, mirrors the growth-driven downturn seen in 2020. Such sell-offs, while not always leading to recession, tend to be sharp and volatile.

It has also closed above the 45+ level first the first time since the pandemic and the Global Financial Crisis.
Despite the recent spike in the VIX volatility index indicating growing market fear, Bravos Research suggests this period of panic could eventually present significant long-term buying opportunities for quality assets.
While acknowledging the potential impact of President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariffs on triggering a recession, the firm advises against aggressive short positions and recommends scanning for discounted investment opportunities.
Price Action: Stocks fluctuated Monday on conflicting tariff delay reports, ultimately closing mixed. By Tuesday, major indices were significantly down from recent highs: the S&amp;P 500 was 17.65% lower, Nasdaq 100 was down 21.56%, and Dow Jones declined 15.77%, following a week of tariff-driven selloffs.
The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, were mixed on Monday.

Gold Spot US Dollar declined 0.94% to hover around $3,008.74 per ounce. Its fresh record high stood at $3,168.04 per ounce. Silver, on the other hand, was up 2.39% to $30.2375 per ounce. 
On Tuesday, the futures of Dow Jones were up 1.75%, whereas the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq 100 indices rose 1.42% and 1.36%, respectively.

Market Enters 'Risk-Off' Mode As Analyst Predicts This Signal Flashing Warnings Similar To 2020, 2008 Crisis

Howard G. Buffett, son of renowned investor Warren Buffett, pledged to donate $1 billion in aid to Ukraine this year, undeterred by the uncertain U.S.-Ukraine relations under the Trump administration.
What Happened:  Howard, CEO of the Howard G. Buffett Foundation, is making his 18th visit to Ukraine amid the ongoing conflict with Russia, <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/04/07/warren-buffetts-son-is-on-track-to-donate-1-billion-in-aid-to-ukraine-this-year-and-pledges-to-continue-despite-trumps-shaky-relations/">reported</a> Fortune. This comes as the Trump administration attempts to negotiate a temporary ceasefire between the two nations.
Despite the ongoing conflict and uncertainty surrounding U.S. support for Ukraine, Buffett remains committed to his philanthropic efforts. &#8220;It doesn&#8217;t change anything we do. We&#8217;re on track,&#8221; Buffett told The Associated Press. His foundation is expected to surpass $1 billion in aid to Ukraine this year.
"There's no easy way to end the war. So, we'll stick with it as long as we need to."
Buffett&#8217;s&nbsp;foundation, which focuses on humanitarian&nbsp;needs like agriculture, infrastructure,&nbsp;and mine clearance, has contributed&nbsp;about $800 million to Ukraine&nbsp;since the start of the&nbsp;full-scale invasion, including $175 million&nbsp;in humanitarian demining.

Buffett and Ukraine&#8217;s Economy Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko recently visited the country&#8217;s northern Sumy region, a high-risk zone for land mines. Despite the challenges, Buffett remains optimistic about U.S. support for Ukraine. &#8220;At the end of the day, I think the U.S. will do the right thing,&#8221; he said.
Why It Matters:&nbsp;The commitment from Buffett comes at a critical time for Ukraine. The U.S. had previously paused <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/global/25/03/44269997/trump-restores-ukraine-aid-after-threatening-large-scale-sanctions-on-moscow-but-russian-lawmaker-rejects-ceasefire-terms-defense-stocks-fall">intelligence sharing</a> and security assistance to Ukraine, but resumed it following Ukraine's acceptance of a U.S.-proposed 30-day ceasefire plan. However, the ceasefire terms were quickly rejected by a Russian lawmaker, causing defense stocks to fall.
Buffett&#8217;s foundation has been a significant contributor to Ukraine&#8217;s humanitarian efforts, having <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/24/02/37303257/warren-buffetts-son-howard-buffett-has-donated-over-500-million-to-ukraine-and-he-has-no-plans-to-st">donated over $500 million</a> to the country. His continued support is crucial as the country navigates its ongoing conflict with Russia.
Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin has expressed openness to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/03/44314580/putin-open-to-idea-of-ceasefire-suggests-call-with-trump-to-discuss-it-with-him-report">idea of a ceasefire</a>, suggesting a call with President Trump to discuss it further. This development could potentially influence the future of U.S.-Ukraine relations and the ongoing conflict.

Warren Buffett's Son Vows $1 Billion In Aid To Ukraine Amid Shifting US-Ukraine Ties Under Trump: 'There's No Easy Way To End The War'

Amid an escalating trade war, cryptocurrency bettors sharply raised the odds that President Donald Trump would impose additional tariffs on a defiant China.&nbsp;
What happened: Bets in favor of the outcome <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/will-trump-increase-tariffs-on-china-before-may-2025">surged </a>past 80% on Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">POL</a>)-based Polymarket, marking a 58 percentage point increase over the last 24 hours.
Over $21,257 has been wagered on the possibility. This market will resolve to "Yes" if Trump signs any federal legislation or performs any executive action that imposes additional duties on China over and beyond the 54% general tariff before May 1.
Polymarket is a decentralized prediction market where people can bet on major world events with cryptocurrencies. Users can purchase or sell outcome shares, "Yes" or "No," which can be redeemed for $1 if the outcome is correct but are worthless if it's incorrect.
Note that Polymarket is not available to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41838037/will-polymarket-return-to-the-us-after-getting-trump-victory-right-ceo-says-its-part-of-the-plan"> U.S. residents </a>due to regulatory hurdles.

Why It Matters: The bets came against the backdrop of mounting trade war concerns, threatening to derail markets worldwide.

Will Trump Impose Higher Tariffs On China? Crypto Bettors Now See An 80% Possibility

Shares of United States Steel Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/X#NYSE">X</a>) gained 16% on Monday after U.S. President Donald Trump ordered a new review of its blocked acquisition by Japan&#8217;s Nippon Steel by former President Joe Biden, citing national security concerns early this year.
What Happened: The White House <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/04/review-of-proposed-united-states-steel-corporation-acquisition/">published a memorandum</a> on Monday, ordering a review of Nippon Steel&#8217;s $14.5 billion acquisition of United States Steel Corp.
This acquisition was announced in December 2023, and was set to conclude in 2024, but was instead <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/42779827/joe-biden-to-decide-on-nippon-steels-14-9b-us-steel-acquisition-on-friday-amid-veto-offer-labor-concerns">blocked by President Joe Biden in January 2025</a>, just a few days before he left office.
The former President and the Committee On Foreign Investment In The United States (CFIUS) cited national security concerns while blocking the sale. There was also growing opposition from unions, primarily the United Steelworkers (USW), which factored into the decision.
See More: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44677861/apple-hits-worst-stretch-in-years-3-day-loss-wipes-out-640-billion">Jim Cramer Says Market Rebound Feels &#8216;Strange&#8217; After Nine Nights Of Losses: &#8216;Things Aren&#8217;t Better&#8217; As Stock Futures Surge Over 1%</a>
While President Trump too had initially opposed the deal, <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/03/44380592/trump-eyes-approval-of-controversial-steel-merger-nippon-and-us-steel-await-key-decision">he softened his stance</a> after meeting Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba in February. During a press conference soon after, the President stated that Nippon would not be &#8216;buying U.S. Steel&#8217; but would instead be investing heavily, and that there would be &#8216;no one with a majority ownership.&#8217;
The President has allowed 45 days for the committee to submit its recommendations on whether the aforementioned national security concerns have been mitigated by the two steel giants.
Why It Matters: The CFIUS&#8217;s outright <a href="https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atlanticist/bidens-blocked-us-steel-deal-carries-big-risks-here-are-the-top-three/">blocking a deal that had no Chinese ownership or influence</a> was unusual, but there have been conflicting reports of Nippon Steel&#8217;s entanglements with China&#8217;s steel industry, which was enough to justify national security concerns.
Most industry experts, analysts, and observers <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proposed_acquisition_of_U.S._Steel_by_Nippon_Steel#Policy_institutes">regarded the deal as a win-win</a>, with US Steel shareholders getting a nearly 40% premium on the stock&#8217;s prevailing market price, while the company itself getting the resources it needs to revitalize its aging blast furnaces, while also reviving America&#8217;s stagnant steel industry in the face of Chinese dumping.
On the other hand, Nippon is struggling with Japan&#8217;s declining birth rates, and while India and Southeast Asian countries do offer growth, they come with political and market uncertainties. The U.S. is currently the only developed nation with a growing steel market, which is why Nippon is willing to pay a 40% premium and put up with all this red tape.

US Steel Gains 16% As Trump Orders Review Of Nippon Steel's Blocked Acquisition

U.S. markets have seen a historic decline over six weeks amid President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariff policies, marking a historically swift destruction of equity capital that&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/bonds/25/04/44660747/bond-king-jeff-gundlach-says-fed-rate-is-too-high-by-75-bps-but-warns-cuts-unlikely-without-sharper-risk-asset-losses">outpacing previous major crashes without the traditional bond market safety net</a>, according to financial strategist Lawrence McDonald.
What Happened: &#8220;Last 20 years, large equity market risk-off events have &#8212; always &#8212; brought in &#8216;flight to quality&#8217; buyers of long duration U.S. Treasuries. Not this time,&#8221; McDonald, founder of Bear Traps Report, wrote Monday on X.
McDonald&#8217;s analysis shows Trump&#8217;s tariff-induced selloff has wiped out $9 trillion in just six weeks, rivaling the $9 trillion lost during the COVID crash in 2020 over one month and surpassing the $8 trillion erased during the 12 months following the Lehman Brothers collapse in 2008.
The only period with greater losses was the 2022 inflation-driven downturn, which saw $10 trillion in value destroyed over 11 months.
The strategist&#8217;s accompanying chart of U.S. 30-Year Bond yields reveals a critical difference: unlike previous market crises when bond yields dropped sharply as investors sought safety, current yields remain elevated near 4.5%.
&#8220;When equity market investors were struck by the Lehman (-55%) and Covid (-35%) drawdowns, they were blessed with long-term bonds,&#8221; McDonald noted, estimating the bond offset saved investors $7 trillion during those crises.
According to Reuters, Trump&#8217;s tariff spiral wiped out $10 trillion in major markets worldwide.

Why It Matters: The pattern shift comes as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44677506/china-resolutely-opposes-trumps-50-tariff-threat-vows-countermeasures-as-trade-tensions-jolt-markets">markets reel from Trump&#8217;s sweeping tariff threats</a>, particularly against China, which vowed to &#8220;fight to the end&#8221; against the proposed 50% duties. The selloff briefly intensified Monday morning before an afternoon recovery. 
The Dow Jones Industrial Average, tracked by SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIA#NYSE">DIA</a>) dropped 349 points, or 0.91%, to close at 37,965 after falling more than 1,700 points earlier in the session.

Despite mounting market pressure, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent attributed the selloff to tech valuations rather than administration policy, calling it &#8220;more a MAG 7 problem than a MAGA one.&#8221; 
Meanwhile, fixed income investor Jeff Gundlach suggested the Federal Reserve&#8217;s policy stance is too restrictive, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/bonds/25/04/44660747/bond-king-jeff-gundlach-says-fed-rate-is-too-high-by-75-bps-but-warns-cuts-unlikely-without-sharper-risk-asset-losses">noting the 2-year Treasury yield has dropped to 3.5%</a>, though he doesn&#8217;t anticipate immediate rate cuts &#8220;unless the losses in risk assets greatly increase.&#8221;

Trump Tariffs Triggers Historic Equity Wipeout Outpacing COVID, Lehman Crashes, With No Bond Rally To Cushion The Blow, Says Lawrence McDonald

BitMEX co-founder, Arthur Hayes, is doubling down on Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), anticipating its market dominance to surge to 70% amid economic uncertainties.
What Happened: In a post on X, Hayes revealed his ongoing Bitcoin accumulation, expressing his confidence in its growing dominance over other cryptocurrencies. He stated, &#8220;Been nibbling on $BTC all day, and shall continue. Shitcoins are getting in our strike zone but I think Bitcoin dominance keeps zooming towards 70%.&#8221; Hayes is steering clear of heavy investment in lower-value, high-risk cryptocurrencies, despite their attractive prices.

In another post on X on Tuesday, he also hinted at the potential impact of China&#8217;s response to America&#8217;s trade tariffs, suggesting it could trigger capital flight to Bitcoin. Hayes stated that if China's central bank devalues the yuan, the prevailing narrative is that capital outflows from China could move into Bitcoin. He noted that this strategy &#8220;worked in 2013, 2015, and can work in 2025." <img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/08032406/Screenshot-2025-04-08-125341.png" alt="" /> SEE ALSO: <a href="https://benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44666499/mark-cuban-warns-of-a-crisis-far-worse-than-2008-if-trumps-tariff-turmoil-and-elon-musks-doge-moves-conti" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mark Cuban Warns Of A Crisis &#8216;Far Worse&#8217; Than 2008 If Trump&#8217;s Tariff Turmoil And Elon Musk&#8217;s DOGE Moves Continue</a> Why It Matters: Hayes&#8217; bullish stance on Bitcoin aligns with his earlier prediction that Bitcoin could reach <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44607188/arthur-hayes-predicts-bitcoin-to-hit-250000-by-end-of-year">$250,000 by the end of 2025</a>, citing the Federal Reserve&#8217;s shift towards purchasing more U.S. Treasury bonds as a catalyst for a new Bitcoin bull cycle.

Arthur Hayes Predicts 70% Bitcoin Dominance And Potential Chinese Capital Flight: 'It Worked In 2013, 2015, And Can Work In 2025'

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), reportedly made direct appeals to President Donald Trump over the weekend to reverse sweeping new tariffs.
What Happened: Despite being a key Trump adviser and significant political donor who contributed nearly $290 million to Republicans in last year&#8217;s elections, Musk&#8217;s intervention has been unsuccessful, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2025/04/07/musk-trump-tariffs/">reported</a> The Washington Post. Trump threatened Monday to add new 50% tariffs on Chinese imports on top of the 34% taxes announced last week.
The dispute marks the highest-profile <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44668830/we-want-fairness-white-house-trade-adviser-navarro-says-trump-administration-is-focused-on-non-tariff-cheating">disagreement between Trump&#8217;s closest advisers</a>. Musk publicly criticized White House trade adviser Peter Navarro on social media, writing, &#8220;A PhD in Econ from Harvard is a bad thing, not a good thing.&#8221;
In an interview with Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini, Musk advocated for a &#8220;free trade zone&#8221; between Europe and the United States, saying, &#8220;At the end of the day, I hope it&#8217;s agreed that both Europe and the United States should move ideally, in my view, to a zero-tariff situation.&#8221;
Tesla did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.

Why It Matters: Musk&#8217;s brother and Tesla board member Kimbal Musk also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44677285/elon-musks-brother-and-tesla-board-member-kimbal-musk-calls-trump-most-high-tax-american-president-in-generations-warns-tariffs-are-a-permanent-tax-on-us-consumers">criticized Trump&#8217;s policies</a>, calling him &#8220;the most high tax American President in generations&#8221; and warning that tariffs create &#8220;a structural, permanent tax on the American consumer.&#8221;
Tesla stock closed at $233.29 on Monday, down more than 2.5%, and has lost over 38% of its value this year. Analyst Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44659926/dan-ives-cuts-tesla-target-to-315-slashes-apple-by-23-amid-tariff-fallout-warns-elon-musk-led-ev-maker-faces-darker-days-ahead">lowered Tesla&#8217;s price target from $550 to $315</a>, noting that &#8220;Tesla has essentially become a political symbol globally&#8230; and that is a very bad thing.&#8221;
The tariff policies have <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/management/25/04/44676213/trumps-tariffs-are-impacting-main-street-not-just-wall-street-blackrock-ceo-larry-fink-says">sparked broader market turmoil</a>, with BlackRock Inc. CEO Larry Fink warning that economic impacts are &#8220;going to freeze more and more consumption.&#8221;
Tesla is outperforming rivals Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>), NIO (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>), and Lucid Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>) in momentum, according to Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings. However, the Musk-led EV maker is showing a negative price trend across short to long-term timeframes. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Sign up to learn more</a>.

OpenAI Eyes $500 Million Deal To Acquire Jony Ive And Sam Altman's AI Hardware Startup: Report

Thousands of North Korean IT workers have been found to be working undercover in Fortune 500 companies, with their earnings being used to fund Kim Jong Un&#8216;s illicit weapons programs.
What Happened: These IT professionals have been using stolen or fabricated identities to gain employment in these companies, <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/04/07/north-korean-it-workers-infiltrating-fortune-500-companies/">reported</a> Fortune. The U.S. Treasury, State Department, and FBI estimate that this operation has been generating hundreds of millions annually since 2018.
The North Korean engineers are not only impersonating Americans but are also leveraging advanced AI to alter their appearances and voices. They are even managing to hold multiple jobs simultaneously, thereby increasing the amount of money funneled back to North Korea.
Harrison Leggio told the publication that nearly all the résumés he gets for roles at his crypto startup g8keep—about 95%—are actually from North Korean engineers pretending to be Americans.

Michael Barnhart, an intelligence leader at Google Cloud, stated that these engineers are stationed in China and Russia, where they use AI to create impressive bios and apply for jobs in bulk. 
Why It Matters: Despite attempts to disrupt this operation, cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike reported that North Korean IT workers were behind 304 incidents in 2024, and their activities increased during the latter half of the year. The firm predicts that these campaigns will continue in 2025, given their financial success.
