On Monday, at CES 2025, Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang introduced the company's $3,000 &#8220;personal AI supercomputer,&#8221; a compact, high-performance machine designed to run advanced AI models right from your desk.
What Happened: During his keynote speech at the CES conference in Las Vegas, Huang announced the launch of Digits, a desktop-sized personal AI supercomputer that will be available in May 2025.
Price starting at $3,000, Digits is powered by Nvidia&#8217;s proprietary GB10 Grace Blackwell superchip which is specifically designed to accelerate the computations required for AI workloads.

The system is compact, about the size of a small book, yet packed with impressive specs — 128GB of unified memory and up to 4TB of NVMe storage, offering immense processing power.
With this setup, Digits can handle a single AI model of up to 200 billion parameters, which would typically require cloud services like AWS or custom-built data centers.
"It runs the entire Nvidia AI stack," Huang said during his keynote, adding, "All of Nvidia's software runs on this, DGX cloud runs on this.&nbsp;
This ability will allow anyone with the system to run some of the most sophisticated models currently available without relying on cloud resources.

Jensen Huang Unveils $3000 'Personal AI Supercomputer' The Size Of A Small Book: 'It Runs The Entire Nvidia AI Stack'

Jeff Bezos&#8216; Blue Origin said on Monday that it is looking to launch its New Glenn rocket for the first time to orbit no earlier than Jan. 10, Friday.
What Happened: The rocket is slated to launch from Launch Complex 36 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida. The three-hour launch window opens at 1 a.m. EST.
The key objective for the mission, the company said, is to reach orbit safely. The company is also looking to land the booster of the vehicle in the Atlantic Ocean after launch. The company said in a statement that the booster landing is &#8220;ambitious but we are going for it&#8221;
"This is our first flight and we've prepared rigorously for it," said Jarrett Jones, SVP, New Glenn. "But no amount of ground testing or mission simulations is a replacement for flying this rocket. It's time to fly. No matter what happens, we'll learn, refine, and apply that knowledge to our next launch."
Why It Matters:&nbsp;The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) authorized the first launch of Blue Origin's&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40868010/jeff-bezos-blue-origin-names-new-glenn-1s-first-booster-so-youre-telling-me-theres-a-chance-heres-wh" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New Glenn vehicle</a>&nbsp;in late December. The commercial space launch license, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42712726/jeff-bezos-blue-origin-gets-license-from-faa-for-new-glenn-maiden-launch">valid for five years</a>, allows Blue Origin to conduct orbital missions from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida with the New Glenn.
New Glenn is a reusable heavy-lift rocket named after&nbsp;John Glenn, the first American to orbit Earth. The development of the vehicle, expected to compete with SpaceX's Falcon launch vehicle, has been delayed for years.
New Glenn, unlike Blue Origin's New Shepard vehicle, can reach the Earth's orbit and beyond.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38909990/90-year-old-breaks-record-as-oldest-astronaut-with-blue-origins-launch" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New Shepard</a>, meanwhile, can only reach the edge of space.
New Glenn's first launch will mark the rocket&#8217;s first National Security Space Launch certification flight. It will carry the company&#8217;s Blue Ring Pathfinder – developed by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38909990/90-year-old-breaks-record-as-oldest-astronaut-with-blue-origins-launch" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Blue Origin&#8217;s</a>&nbsp;In-Space Systems business unit – as a payload.
SpaceX Eyes Next Starship Test Flight on Jan.10: SpaceX, meanwhile, is looking to launch its ambitious Starship launch vehicle on its seventh test flight <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42801847/spacex-to-deploy-model-starlink-satellites-on-upcoming-starship-flight-test">on Friday as well</a>. Starship will launch from Starbase in Texas carrying 10 Starlink simulators which are similar in size and weight to the company&#8217;s next-generation Starlink satellites. 
For the upcoming flight, SpaceX is looking to catch the vehicle's booster back at the launch pad at Starbase with the launch tower's metallic arms like on its fifth test flight in October. However, in case of any safety concerns, the company will splash it down in the Gulf of Mexico, it said.
The Starship is still in&nbsp;development and undergoing testing. While NASA is looking forward to landing humans back on the surface of the Moon after a gap of over 50 years with the help of a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42108681/spacex-shows-off-conceptual-version-of-starship-which-will-help-humans-land-back-on-moon-in-over-50-yrs" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">custom version of the Starship</a>, Musk dreams of taking&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40770222/elon-musk-sets-2026-for-starships-first-uncrewed-mars-mission-targeting-successful-landing" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">humans to the planet Mars</a>&nbsp;aboard the&nbsp;vehicle.

Jeff Bezos Vs Elon Musk: Blue Origin Looks To Fly New Glenn For First Time On Same Day As Starship's 7th Test Flight

The U.S. Department of Defense, on Monday, added several Chinese firms, including Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) supplier Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Limited (CATL), Tencent Holdings (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>), to its list of companies allegedly supporting Beijing's military efforts, causing a sharp decline in their stock values.
What Happened: The U.S. Department of Defense expanded its &#8220;Section 1260H list&#8221; to include Tencent Holdings and CATL, citing their alleged contributions to China&#8217;s military advancements. This move serves as a warning to U.S. entities regarding the potential risks of engaging with these firms.
Following the announcement, Tencent&#8217;s shares dropped by 7.8% in Hong Kong, while CATL&#8217;s stock saw a 6% decline in Shenzhen. Both companies denied any involvement with China&#8217;s military and expressed their intent to cooperate with U.S. authorities to rectify the situation.

Why It Matters: The U.S. blacklisting of Tencent and CATL comes amid heightened trade tensions, with both nations targeting each other's key industries. On Thursday, China's Ministry of Commerce <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/05/39057312/chinese-firms-blacklisted-in-us-rebrand-themselves-as-american-to-avoid-sanctions-imposed-by-biden-a">imposed new trade controls</a>, adding 28 U.S. companies to an export control list and banning the export of dual-use items that serve both military and civilian purposes. Major U.S. defense contractors, including Lockheed Martin (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) and Boeing (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), were also placed on China's Unreliable Entity List, prohibiting their operations in China and restricting executives from entering the country.
This back-and-forth escalation highlights the growing challenges faced by global businesses navigating geopolitical uncertainties. Experts, like Andrew Gilholm of Control Risks, note that while many sanctions are symbolic, the expanding scope and frequency of these actions signal a more aggressive stance from both nations. Additionally, Chinese firms are responding to U.S. restrictions by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/05/39057312/chinese-firms-blacklisted-in-us-rebrand-themselves-as-american-to-avoid-sanctions-imposed-by-biden-a">rebranding and establishing</a> U.S.-based entities to sidestep sanctions, further complicating regulatory landscapes.

The company, under CEO Liz Hamren, reported profitability for the first time in 2023.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) reportedly preparing to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42666738/how-apples-upcoming-smart-doorbell-compares-to-amazons-ring">enter the smart doorbell market</a>.
Apple's upcoming device is rumored to feature Face ID for facial recognition, setting it apart from Amazon&#8217;s Ring, which relies on motion detection and recording.
According to Vantage Market Research, the global smart home market, valued at $75.36 billion in 2020, is projected to surpass $423.95 billion by 2028, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.10% anticipated between 2022 and 2028.

Pro-Bitcoin (CRYPO: BTC) Canadian politician Pierre Poilievre became the favorite of Polymarket bettors to become the country's next prime minister after the federal elections following Justin Trudeau's resignation on Monday.
What happened: The odds in favor of Poilievre, the head of the Conservative Party of Canada, <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/next-prime-minster-of-canada?tid=1736209959811">jumped </a>to 88% on the Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">POL</a>)-based decentralized prediction platform. Conversely, the probability of Trudeau returning to power dipped below 1% as of this writing.
About $467,645 has been wagered on the outcome, with bets linked to Poilievre amounting to $278, 387.&nbsp;
The next Canadian federal election will take place on or before Oct. 20 to elect members of the House.
Poilievre had an even <a href="https://kalshi.com/markets/kxcanadapm/canada-pm">stronger chance</a> on Kalshi, a federally regulated betting platform, with 95% odds in favor at the time of writing.&nbsp;
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: Poilievre has been a proponent of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, calling Canadians to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/22/09/28869060/canadians-cant-opt-out-of-inflation-with-bitcoin-prime-minster-justin-trudeau-lashes-out-a">invest in the sector</a> to avoid inflation.
The Conservative Party leader also desired to make Canada the "blockchain capital of the world."
However, Trudeau, belonging to the Liberal Party, has slammed these views, warning that anyone who followed Poilievre's advice and invested in Bitcoin "would have seen their life savings destroyed."
The speculations and bets come in the wake of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42823979/canadas-pm-justin-trudeau-steps-down-amid-internal-conflict-and-tension-over-trump-tariffs">Trudeau's resignation</a>. The outgoing prime minister said he will step down after the Liberal Party selects its new leader and stated that the Parliament will be suspended until Mar. 24.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $101,722.91, up 2.35% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Leading market analysts highlighted Foxconn, also known as Hon Hai Technology&#8216;s surprise fourth-quarter performance. Jim Cramer suggested investors may have overlooked the Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) supplier while focusing on Nvidia Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/42835923/jensen-huang-unveils-monster-gpus-nvidias-rtx-5000-series-starting-at-549">CES 2025 presentation</a>.
What Happened: &#8220;People were looking for Nvidia&#8217;s Jensen Huang to give a big keynote this evening at CES but weren&#8217;t thinking partner (and Apple supplier) Hon Hai would have such big numbers,&#8221; Cramer wrote on X on Monday, questioning whether bears might try to downplay the significance of the results.

Gary Black, managing partner of The Future Fund LLC, predicted the strong performance could catalyze broader market movements. &#8220;Taiwan&#8217;s Foxconn reported strong 4Q results and provided robust 1Q guidance, triggering chip stock rally,&#8221; Black noted on X.

The manufacturer posted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/42808796/foxconn-posts-record-revenue-rides-high-on-ai-server-demand-and-nvidia-partnership">record fourth-quarter revenue</a> of NT$2,132.3 billion ($64.83 billion), up 15.17% year-over-year, driven by robust demand for AI servers and cloud computing products. December revenue jumped 42.31% annually to NT$654.8 billion ($19.9 billion), despite a 2.64% month-over-month decline.

Why It Matters: Foxconn&#8217;s expansion into AI infrastructure, particularly its partnership with Nvidia for GB200 chip production, represents a strategic pivot beyond its traditional role as Apple&#8217;s primary iPhone manufacturer. The company is building what it claims will be the world&#8217;s largest AI server manufacturing facility in Mexico.
During Foxconn&#8217;s October tech day in Taipei, Chairman Young Liu showcased the company&#8217;s advanced cooling technologies for GB200 servers, while Benjamin Ting, senior vice president for cloud enterprise solutions, confirmed strong demand for Nvidia&#8217;s Blackwell platform.
The full-year revenue reached NT$6,859.9 billion ($208.59 billion), marking an 11.37% increase from the previous year, as the company capitalizes on the growing AI computing market.

Amid Nvidia's CES 2025 Buzz, Investors Overlooked Apple Supplier Foxconn's Strong Q4, Says Jim Cramer

Tesla Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) inventory in the U.S. continues to have foundation series Cybertrucks despite offers to clear them.
What Happened: Tesla&#8217;s inventory currently shows four foundation series all-wheel drive Cybertrucks priced at $99,990. 
Benzinga first noted the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/12/42524912/teslas-99k-foundation-series-cybertrucks-still-available-a-sign-of-possible-demand-hurdles">foundation series Cybertrucks in Tesla&#8217;s inventory</a> in mid-December. Tesla has, since then, added offers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/12/42712707/tesla-offers-free-lifetime-supercharging-with-foundation-series-cybertruck-as-it-looks-to-clear-inventory">including free supercharging</a> on the vehicle if the order is placed on or after Dec. 27. The offer, it then said, will only be available for a limited time. 
However, a week later, there are still foundation-series Cybertrucks left in the inventory and the company is continuing to offer free supercharging during the period of initial ownership, hinting at significant demand challenges for the vehicle. 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="361" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07022215/image-25-1024x361.png" alt="" class="wp-image-721116" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07022215/image-25-1024x361.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07022215/image-25-300x106.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07022215/image-25-768x271.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07022215/image-25-1536x542.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/07022215/image-25.png 1855w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Screengrab of Tesla Inventory</figcaption></figure>
Why It Matters: The foundation series refers to a limited and pricier edition of the Cybertruck with laser-etched foundation series badges and premium accessories.
Tesla made only the foundation series Cybertrucks for the first few months of deliveries. In October, Tesla started selling the regular version of Cybertruck priced about $20,000 lower than the foundation series.
The foundation series trucks manufactured by the company for the U.S. market, meanwhile, continue to be in its inventory, hinting that potential customers are unwilling to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/41873767/cybertruck-likely-wont-be-profitable-in-q4-says-tesla-researcher"> pay a premium for the stainless steel truck.</a>

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has committed to updating its AI feature following a complaint from the BBC.&nbsp;
What Happened: The tech giant acknowledged on Monday that its AI-generated news summaries on iPhones have been inaccurate, <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cge93de21n0o">reported</a> BBC.
The issue came to light last month after the BBC reported that an AI-generated summary falsely claimed that Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, had shot himself.

On Friday, Apple&#8217;s AI once again inaccurately summarized BBC app notifications, stating that Luke Littler had won the PDC World Darts Championship before it began and that Rafael Nadal had come out as gay.
This is the first time Apple has formally addressed the BBC&#8217;s concerns, the report noted.
Apple did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga's</a> request for comments.
Subscribe to the <a href="https://bztechtrends.beehiiv.com/subscribe">Benzinga Tech Trends newsletter</a> to get all the latest tech developments delivered to your inbox.
Why It Matters: This comes at a time when the company is navigating a significant shift towards AI and virtual reality.
In November 2024, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41773589/apple-signals-profit-risks-in-ai-and-vr-shift-what-it-means-for-investors">Apple warned investors</a> about potential profit risks associated with these emerging technologies, which may not match the revenue and profit margins of its flagship iPhone line.
Despite these challenges, analysts like Dan Ives from Wedbush remain optimistic about Apple&#8217;s future. In a December analysis, Ives predicted a &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42682230/tech-bull-predicts-26-upside-for-apple-stock-sees-golden-era-of-growth-for-cupertino-due-to-multi-year-ai-driven-iphone-upgrade-cycle">golden era of growth</a>&#8221; for Apple, driven by a multi-year AI-driven iPhone upgrade cycle.
Price Action: Apple&#8217;s stock rose 0.67% on Monday, closing at $245, as per <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag">Benzinga Pro data</a>. Latest analyst reports from Bernstein, B of A Securities, and Wedbush have set an average price target of $280.33, suggesting a potential upside of 14.43%.

트럭 운송 회사인 Kal Freight가 수익성이 좋지 않은 수직적 통합 비즈니스로의 전환 시도와 코로나19 팬데믹 정점기 추가 차량 투자에 대한 의문으로 재정 상태가 악화되어 파산 보호를 신청했다. 이 회사는 또한 압류 조치를 포함한 소송에 직면해 있다고 <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/trucker-kal-freight-files-for-bankruptcy-protection-06194094">월스트리트 저널</a>가 목요일 미국 파산 법원에 제출한 서류를 인용해 보도했다.
프로마 그룹(Proma Group)가 독일의 레카로 오토모티브 GmbH를 <a href="https://www.promagroup.com/archive/news/68" target="_blank" rel="noopener">인수함</a>으로써 회사를 파산에서 탈출시키고 2025년 1월부터 유럽 전역에서 운영을 재개할 수 있게 되었다. 레카로의 애프터마켓 시트는 1월에 다시 시장에 출시될 예정이며, OEM 생산은 프로마가 본사인 이탈리아로 이전된다. 레카로의 영업 및 기술 부서의 몇몇 직원은 원활한 전환 및 고객 지원을 보장하기 위해 슈투트가르트 지역에 남아 있다. 레카로의 북미 및 일본 운영은 영향을 받지 않는다. 프로마 그룹의 CEO인 루카 피노(Luca Pino)는 이 파트너십을 독일 산업 및 이탈리아 제조 우수성의 조합으로 칭찬했다.
