EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) reported a 113% rise in revenue from its energy generation and storage segment for the fourth quarter despite an 8% dip in automotive revenues.
What Happened: Tesla reported revenue of over $3 billion from its energy segment or more than double the $1.44 billion reported in the corresponding quarter of 2023, upon deploying a record <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42780335/teslas-evergy-storage-deployements-rise-in-q4-even-as-vehicle-deliveries-disappoint">11.0 GWh of energy storage products</a> in the quarter. 
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43326143/tesla-stock-rises-5-after-hours-on-fsd-and-new-vehicle-promises-despite-q4-revenue-miss">Automotive revenue</a>, however, dipped 8% to $19.8 billion despite the company reporting a record 495,570 vehicle deliveries in the three months. This is likely because the company relied on cheap financing and discounts to surge deliveries in the period. 
Revenue from the energy segment accounted for about 12% of the company&#8217;s total revenue in the quarter, while the automotive segment accounted for 77%. The company reported quarterly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43321103/tesla-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-miss-eps-miss-ev-updates-automaker-says-2025-will-be-a-seminal-year">total revenue</a> of $25.71 billion, missing a street consensus estimate of $27.26 billion.
Why It Matters: Tesla continues to be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41537560/teslas-energy-segment-boom-in-q3-sparks-leadership-changes-veteran-mike-snyder-promoted-as-vp">hopeful for its energy segment</a> for it said on Wednesday that it expects energy storage deployment to grow at least 50% year-over-year in 2025.
Tesla currently operates a Megafactory in Lathrop, California, capable of producing 10,000 Megapack units per year. The company is also building a Megafactory in Shanghai, which it expects to start shipping Megapacks in the first quarter of 2025. Musk on Wednesday also hinted that the company is looking to build a third factory for energy storage production.
The company manufactures Megapack, a powerful battery, in addition to its home battery, Powerwall. The company is also ramping up production of Powerwall 3, the latest iteration of the product.
However, Tesla noted that both the power wall and megapack continue to be supply-constrained as it opens to new markets.

Dogecoin, Shiba Inu Rebound  Overshadowed By Fartcoin, Pepe In Memecoin Rally

Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) CEO Mark Zuckerberg revealed ambitious plans for Llama 4, the company&#8217;s next-generation open-source artificial intelligence model, during Meta&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/01/43322201/meta-platforms-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-daily-actives-up-5-continued-strong-revenue-growth-expected">fourth-quarter earnings</a> call on Tuesday. The announcement comes as tech giants race to develop more sophisticated AI agents capable of performing complex tasks.
What Happened: &#8220;Llama 4 will be natively multimodal &#8212; it&#8217;s an omni-model and will have agentic capabilities, so it&#8217;s going to be novel and it&#8217;s going to unlock a lot of new use cases,&#8221; Zuckerberg said during the call. The announcement follows OpenAI&#8217;s recent launch of its &#8220;Operator&#8221; AI agent, highlighting the industry&#8217;s shift toward <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43186741/openai-debuts-operator-ai-agent-that-performs-web-tasks-but-early-error-has-sam-altman-scrambling-for-a-quick-fix">more autonomous AI systems</a>.
Zuckerberg expressed confidence that 2025 could be the year when Llama and open source become &#8220;the most advanced and widely used AI models.&#8221; He noted that Llama 4 mini has completed pre-training, while the reasoning models and larger versions are showing promising progress.
Meta&#8217;s push into agentic AI comes amid significant infrastructure investments, with the company planning a new 2-gigawatt AI data center. The facility, which Zuckerberg said would &#8220;cover a significant part of Manhattan,&#8221; underscores Meta&#8217;s commitment to advancing AI capabilities.

Why It Matters: The company&#8217;s current AI efforts are already showing traction, with Meta AI reaching 700 million monthly active users. Meta <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/01/43322201/meta-platforms-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-daily-actives-up-5-continued-strong-revenue-growth-expected">reported strong fourth-quarter results</a> with revenue up 21% year-over-year to $48.4 billion, suggesting robust financial backing for its AI initiatives.
Zuckerberg emphasized the strategic importance of maintaining an American-led open-source AI standard, particularly in light of emerging competition from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/43304027/deepseek-selloff-is-a-correction-not-start-of-sustained-bear-market-goldman-sachs">Chinese AI companies</a> like DeepSeek. Meta plans to detail more of its Llama 4 strategy in the coming months. 
Price Action: Meta Platforms shares were up 2.29% in after-hours, trading at $692 on Wednesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Mark Zuckerberg Says Meta's Llama 4 To Feature 'Agentic Capabilities,' Unlocking New Use Cases: It Will Become One The Most 'Widely Used' AI Models

Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) CEO Satya Nadella has acknowledged the significant AI advancements made by China's DeepSeek. However, he did not confirm whether these innovations would lead to reduced AI costs.
What Happened: During the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43320124/microsoft-shares-slide-after-q2-results-cloud-revenue-misses-expectations-details">second-quarter earnings</a> call, Nadella responded to analyst Brent Thill&#8217;s inquiry about AI scaling and cost reduction.
He compared AI developments to the regular compute cycle, underscoring the role of Moore&#8217;s Law and AI scaling laws in driving software optimizations, which have led to a tenfold improvement per cycle.

&#8220;I think DeepSeek has had some real innovations. And that is some of the things that even OpenAI found in &#8216;o1,&#8221; he stated, adding, &#8220;All gets commoditized and it&#8217;s going to get broadly used.&#8221;
He said that these software cycles benefit customers, as falling token and inference computing prices allow for increased consumption and more app development.
The CEO also pointed out the potential for running powerful AI models on PCs, which previously required substantial cloud infrastructure.

Why It Matters: DeepSeek has said that it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43302340/deepseeks-ai-breakthrough-microsoft-poised-to-benefit-but-oracle-faces-cloud-growth-challenges">created its low-cost R1 model</a> in only two months with a $5.6 million investment using less-powerful Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips.
However, OpenAI has alleged that DeepSeek used its<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43296041/openai-alleges-deepseek-used-proprietary-models-without-permission-as-microsoft-investigates-ai-security-risks"> proprietary models without permission</a>, raising concerns over intellectual property protection.
DeepSeek's $5.6 million investment number has also come under scrutiny. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43296460/dan-ives-says-chinese-startup-deepseeks-6-million-ai-development-assertion-is-likely-a-fictional-story">called it "a fictional story."</a>
Microsoft&#8217;s quarterly revenue reached $69.6 billion, surpassing the analyst consensus estimate of $68.78 billion, but cloud revenue missed expectations, causing a slide in Microsoft shares.
Price Action: Microsoft stock dropped 4.63% in after-hours trading, settling at $421.85. During Wednesday&#8217;s regular trading hours, it closed at $442.33, reflecting a 1.09% decline, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella Accepts DeepSeek AI Has Some 'Real Innovations' — But Won't Say If They Mark A Turning Point For AI Cost Reduction

Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) revealed transformative momentum in its artificial intelligence business, announcing a $13 billion annual AI revenue run rate alongside a major Azure commitment from OpenAI that propelled commercial bookings to unprecedented <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43320124/microsoft-shares-slide-after-q2-results-cloud-revenue-misses-expectations-details">levels in the second quarter</a>.
What Happened: CFO Amy Hood during the Wednesday earnings call noted that while the OpenAI commitment significantly boosted second-quarter bookings, it represents just the &#8220;first tranche&#8221; of future growth potential. 
The partnership exemplifies Microsoft&#8217;s broader AI strategy, with Hood highlighting that over half of their cloud and AI-related spending targets long-lived assets supporting customer growth over the next 15 years.
The tech giant reported a 175% year-over-year surge in AI revenue, while commercial bookings jumped 67% (75% in constant currency), driven by OpenAI&#8217;s expanded Azure commitment. 
This strategic partnership helped push Microsoft&#8217;s commercial remaining performance obligation to $298 billion, with quarterly cloud revenue exceeding $40 billion for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43320124/microsoft-shares-slide-after-q2-results-cloud-revenue-misses-expectations-details">the first time</a>.

Why It Matters: &#8220;Enterprises are beginning to move from proof of concepts to enterprisewide deployments to unlock the full ROI of AI,&#8221; said CEO Satya Nadella. He emphasized that OpenAI&#8217;s APIs exclusively running on Azure gives customers confidence in accessing leading AI models.
Despite this AI momentum, Microsoft faced some headwinds in Azure&#8217;s non-AI services due to execution challenges in their scale motions. However, the company&#8217;s overall performance remained robust with total revenue of $69.6 billion, up 12% year-over-year.
Looking ahead, Microsoft expects to align AI capacity with demand by fiscal year-end 2025, supported by $22.6 billion in quarterly capital expenditures. The company projects continued double-digit revenue growth as enterprise AI adoption accelerates beyond initial testing phases.
Price Action: Microsoft shares are down 4.63% after-hours at $421.85 on Wednesday, according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Microsoft's $13 Billion Run Rate And OpenAI Azure Deal Spark Surge In Enterprise Demand For AI Solutions: Just 'First Tranche' Of Future Growth Potential

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk said on Wednesday that the company will likely have to update hardware for customers whose vehicles are equipped with an older version of the AI hardware called Hardware 3, for it to achieve fully unsupervised autonomous driving with full self-driving (FSD) driver assistance software.
What Happened: &#8220;I think the honest answer is that we&#8217;re going to have to upgrade people&#8217;s Hardware 3 computer for those that have bought full self-driving, and that is the honest answer and that&#8217;s going to be painful and difficult but we&#8217;ll get it done,&#8221; Musk said in response to investor questions on its fourth-quarter earnings call on Wednesday.
&#8220;Now, I&#8217;m kind of glad that not that many people bought the FSD pack,&#8221; Musk laughed.
Another Tesla executive, however, said that the company has not yet given up Hardware 3 yet.
Recent versions of Tesla&#8217;s FSD were rolled out to vehicles with hardware 4 first and hardware 3 vehicles later, raising doubts about the capacity of hardware 3 to support unsupervised versions of the software. 
Why It Matters: Musk himself said during Tesla&#8217;s third-quarter earnings call in October that the company is unsure of hardware 3&#8217;s capability for fully autonomous driving.
&#8220;Hardware 4 has really several times the capability of Hardware 3. It&#8217;s easier to get things to work with. Then it takes a lot of effort to sort of squeeze that functionality into Hardware 3,&#8221; Musk then said while adding that there is a likelihood that Hardware 3 does not achieve the safety level that allows for unsupervised FSD. 
Musk added that the company will upgrade the hardware for those who bought FSD on hardware 3 vehicles, in that case, free of cost to customers.
&#8220;And we have designed the system to be upgradeable so it&#8217;s really just to sort of switch out the computer thing; the cameras are capable,&#8221; Musk then said.
A free upgrade will allow buyers to retain value for the $8000 they spent to purchase FSD capability instead of making a new vehicle purchase. However, the effort might cost the company. 
Financial Results: For the fourth quarter, Tesla reported operating expenses of $2.60 billion, marking an increase of 9% year-on-year. The company also warned that it expects operating expenses to increase in 2025 as it seeks to support its &#8220;growth initiatives.&#8221;
For the entirety of 2024, the company reported a capital expenditure of $11.34 billion, up from $8.9 billion in 2023.

Elon Musk Is 'Kind Of Glad' Many Didn't Pick Up A Tesla FSD Subscription: Here's Why

Platforms selling President Donald Trump-branded merchandise have started to accept his multibillion-dollar-valued meme coin as payment.
What happened: Websites that offer a range of Trump products, including watches, sneakers, and perfumes, are letting customers use the "Solana Pay" option during checkout to pay for the items in Official Trump (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>).
At last check, the meme coin payment option was available for GetTrumpWatches.com, GetTrumpFragrances.com, and GetTrumpSneakers.com. The official retail website of the Trump Organization, TrumpStore.com, however, was yet to open up this facility.
Last week, blockchain-based travel booking platform Travala.com also <a href="https://x.com/travalacom/status/1881920700614922240">enabled </a>payments in the memecoin.

Why It Matters: These real-world use cases come amid the dramatic ebbs and flows the meme coin has encountered since its launch a couple of weeks ago.
TRUMP <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43257114/donald-and-melania-trump-memecoins-defy-market-lull-with-rallyanalyst-says-trump-bottomed-out-at-25">reached a fully diluted valuation</a> of roughly $75 billion shortly after its debut but has since plummeted over 63%.
Entities affiliated with The Trump Organization control 80% of the coin's supply, fueling speculation that the president is personally profiting from the market moves.
When Trump was asked about the &#8220;several billion dollars&#8221; the meme coin has raked in, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43118779/trump-memecoin-regains-momentum-rallies-22-as-the-president-calls-billions-earned-through-the-venture-as-peanuts">he deemed them</a> "peanuts."
Price Action: At the time of writing, TRUMP was exchanging hands at $28.11, up 3.22% 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>.

TRUMP Coin Can Buy You Donald Trump-Themed Watches And Sneakers: Here's How

Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) CEO Mark Zuckerberg has addressed the impact of Chinese startup DeepSeek&#8217;s impact during the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/01/43322201/meta-platforms-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-daily-actives-up-5-continued-strong-revenue-growth-expected">fourth-quarter earnings</a> call.
What Happened: During the call, Zuckerberg acknowledged that DeepSeek&#8217;s novel approaches are still being evaluated by Meta. He said that the tech industry often learns from new advancements, regardless of their origin.
&#8220;I think there's a number of novel things that they did that I think we're still digesting,&#8221; he stated.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/01/43325503/mark-zuckerbergs-meta-pays-trump-25-million-to-settle-lawsuit-over-facebook-instagram-ban-after-jan-6-riot-a-big-year-for-redefining-our-relationships-with-governments">Mark Zuckerberg&#8217;s Meta Pays Trump $25 Million To Settle Lawsuit Over Facebook, Instagram Ban After Jan. 6 Riot: &#8216;A Big Year For Redefining Our Relationships With Governments&#8217;</a>
However, Zuckerberg said, it is too early to predict how these developments will affect the use of infrastructure and capital spending. He said trends are shifting toward using more computing power for running models after they're trained (inference), rather than just training them.
&#8220;I continue to think that investing very heavily in CapEx and infra is going to be a strategic advantage over time. It&#8217;s possible that we&#8217;ll learn otherwise at some point, but I just think it&#8217;s way too early to call that,&#8221; the CEO stated.

Why It Matters: DeepSeek has said that it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43296460/dan-ives-says-chinese-startup-deepseeks-6-million-ai-development-assertion-is-likely-a-fictional-story">developed its low-cost</a> R1 model in just two months with a $5.6 million investment, raising questions about the cost-effectiveness of AI development.
This announcement has led to market concerns as the Chinese platform showcases its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43302711/nvidia-hardest-hit-among-mag-7-stocks-by-deepseek-and-this-stock-ranked-second">potential to challenge U.S.</a> AI heavyweights like OpenAI, Meta, and Alphabet.
This development has also sparked concerns about the need for large-scale GPU investments, resulting in Nvidia Corporation's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) stock falling 17% on Monday, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43256425/nvidia-says-deepseek-an-illustration-of-how-new-ai-models-can-be-created-while-being-export-control-compliant-amid-600-billion-market-value-plunge">erasing around $600 billion</a> from its market value.
At the same time, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43244872/tech-stocks-tumble-on-ai-nightmare-nvidia-eyes-worst-day-since-march-2020-bitcoin-drops-below-100000-whats-driving-markets-monday">Nasdaq 100 dropped over 3%</a>, its largest decline since Dec. 18.
Meta projects its total expenses for 2025 to range between $114 billion and $119 billion. The company also expects capital expenditures for the year to be between $60 billion and $65 billion, primarily due to investments in generative AI and its core operations.
In the fourth-quarter Meta showed a strong performance, with revenue of $48.39 billion, surpassing analyst estimates of $47.03 billion.
Price Action: Meta&#8217;s stock saw a significant 2.29% increase in after-hours trading, reaching $692. During regular hours on Wednesday, it closed at $676.49, marking a 0.32% gain, as per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Mark Zuckerberg Says China's DeepSeek Did Some Novel Things 'We're Still Digesting,' But Meta May Keep Pouring Billions Into AI Infrastructure Anyway

Former Senator Bob Menendez was handed an 11-year prison term for accepting bribes, including gold bars, and foreign agent offenses, in return for political favors on Wednesday.
What Happened: U.S. District Judge Sidney Stein pronounced the sentence, following the former democratic senator&#8217;s conviction in July 2024 after a nine-week jury trial, according to a press release shared by the Department of Justice.
Aside from Menendez, the court sentenced businessmen Wael Hana and Fred Diabies to 97 months and seven years in jail, respectively, for bribing the former lawmaker.
Menendez and his wife,&nbsp;Nadine Menendez,&nbsp;accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of bribes from Hana and Diablies in the form of gold, cash, and a luxury convertible, the indictment read.
In exchange for these, the erstwhile New Jersey senator used his power and influence to endeavor to protect their business interests and took actions that benefited the government of Egypt.
Charges against Nadine Menendez are still pending. Her corruption trial is set for Mar. 18.

Why It Matters: Menendez, who chaired the United States Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, resigned from the Senate in August. 
Interestingly, Menendez was a vocal critic of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), deeming it an &#8220;ideal choice for criminals&#8221; in a letter to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.
Menendez had also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/03/37529921/nayib-bukele-cant-help-laughing-as-bitcoin-critic-who-slammed-adoption-in-el-salvador-gets">co-sponsored legislation to mitigate the risks of El Salvador's adoption of Bitcoin</a>. He infamously said, &#8220;Bitcoin can open the doors of corruption in El Salvador.&#8221;
El Salvador President Nayib Bukele reacted to Menendez&#8217;s conviction, writing, &#8220;The thief judges by his condition" in an X post.

Former Senator Bob Menendez Who Said 'Bitcoin Will Open Doors Of Corruption In El Salvador' Gets 11-Year Jail Term For Accepting Bribes

Editor&#8217;s Note: This story has been updated with additional details.
A PSA Airlines Bombardier CRJ700 regional jet collided in midair with a Sikorsky H-60 helicopter while it was nearing the runway at Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) around 9 p.m. local time, The Federal Aviation Administration said on Wednesday, placing a pause on all takeoffs and landings from the airport. 
What Happened: The plane fell in the Potomac River near the airport after the crash, Washington DC&#8217;s Fire and Emergency Department said. Fireboats are on the scene, the department said, while adding that it will work together with the police department in a search and rescue operation.
There is no confirmed information on casualties at the time, the police department said. The Department also clarified that its helicopter was not involved in the incident and is currently assisting the rescue operations.

Takeoffs, Landings Halted At Reagan Washington National Airport After Jet Falls In Potomac River (UPDATED)

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock rose as much as 5% after hours over the company&#8217;s promises of launching new and &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43293219/teslas-30k-ev-risks-being-a-nothing-burger-says-gary-black-warns-of-cannibalization-without-a-new-compact-design">more affordable</a>&#8221; models in the first half of 2025, in addition to other promises regarding the deployment of autonomous vehicles and licensing of the company&#8217;s full self-driving (FSD) driver assistance software to rivals.
Licensing FSD: CEO Elon Musk said on Wednesday that it is in conversation with other automakers regarding licensing FSD. However, the company is only entertaining conversations where the deployment volume will be high, the CEO said. 
The CEO also said that the company will not burden its engineering workforce with sharing the tech with another carmaker. The engineering team would instead focus on making the technology fully unsupervised, Musk said while adding that interest from rivals will likely surge once the technology can enable driverless driving.
Autonomous Ride-Hail Fleet Testing In Texas: The CEO also said that the company will start testing autonomous ride-hailing service in Texas in June with vehicles deployed with FSD. However, Musk has previously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40499576/tesla-delays-elon-musks-timeline-yet-again-for-cybertruck-fsd-rollout-this-time-to-september">provided timelines</a> for Tesla products that the company did not deliver. As far back as 2019, Musk said that he was confident about Tesla having operational robotaxis by 2020.
Musk also said on Wednesday that the company is looking to launch unsupervised FSD in California before the end of the year, while also expressing optimism for it being deployed in other regions. 
FSD, as of date, requires active driver supervision.
Why It Matters: Tesla reported revenue, earnings per share, and gross profit margin for the fourth quarter that were <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43321103/tesla-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-miss-eps-miss-ev-updates-automaker-says-2025-will-be-a-seminal-year">below expectations </a>on Wednesday. 
However, the stock rose as much as 5% after-hours after Tesla said that the company is looking to start production of new models, including more affordable ones, in the first half of this year. Musk&#8217;s promises on FSD improvements this year also aided the rally. 
Tesla stock has seen a jump since the election of Donald Trump as President in November. Trump and Musk recently forged a strong relationship with the billionaire supporting and funding the former&#8217;s election campaign. 
The stock has more than doubled over the past year as of Wednesday&#8217;s closing share price of $389.10, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Tesla, Meta, Microsoft, IBM, Nvidia: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) bull Gary Black highlighted the company&#8217;s planned autonomous ride-hailing service in Austin as a significant development while expressing concerns about automotive margins and the forthcoming affordable electric vehicle&#8217;s design.
What Happened: Black, managing partner of The Future Fund LLC, called the planned June launch of paid autonomous ride-hailing in Austin &#8220;probably the most bullish thing&#8221; from Tesla&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43321103/tesla-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-miss-eps-miss-ev-updates-automaker-says-2025-will-be-a-seminal-year">fourth-quarter earnings call</a>. 
However, he questioned the company&#8217;s low automotive gross margins of 13.6% excluding regulatory credits and sought clarity on the upcoming lower-priced vehicle&#8217;s design.
The comments came after Tesla reported fourth-quarter revenue of $25.71 billion, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43321103/tesla-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-miss-eps-miss-ev-updates-automaker-says-2025-will-be-a-seminal-year">missing analyst estimates</a> of $27.26 billion. Automotive revenue declined 8% year-over-year to $19.8 billion, though the company achieved its lowest-ever cost of goods sold per vehicle at under $35,000.

What Happened: On Tuesday, Black said the importance of the new affordable vehicle&#8217;s form factor, warning that simply scaling down existing Models 3 or Y could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43293219/teslas-30k-ev-risks-being-a-nothing-burger-says-gary-black-warns-of-cannibalization-without-a-new-compact-design">cannibalize current sales</a>. &#8220;Much depends on whether the new $30,000-$35,000 Tesla vehicle extends Tesla&#8217;s TAM to the compact category, which represents 15% of global volume,&#8221; he wrote on X.
The automaker confirmed its plans for new vehicle production starting in the first half of 2025, though it cautioned that manufacturing on existing production lines would limit cost reduction potential.

What Happened: Bitcoin reclaimed the $104,000 mark, helped by bullish commentary from Fed Chair Jerome Powell.
Ethereum also registered gains, although it waited for a strong upward breach from $3,200.
The second-largest cryptocurrency has trailed Bitcoin thus far in 2025, recording year-to-date losses of 5.80% as opposed to the apex cryptocurrency's 11% gains.
At the press conference, Powell took a positive stance on cryptocurrencies, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43318325/a-different-powell-emerges-fed-chair-softens-hawkish-tone-on-interest-rates-bitcoin">praising the ongoing efforts</a> to provide a clear regulatory framework for the industry.
The rally resulted in $257.59 million in cryptocurrency liquidations in the last 24 hours, with the majority being downside bets.
Bitcoin's Open Interest rose by 2.58% in the last 24 hours, indicating an influx of fresh money into its futures market.
However, over 50% of Bitcoin traders took short positions on the asset, according to the Long/Short ratio, suggesting that the market could reverse.
The "Greed" sentiment softened from 72 to 76, according to the reading on the Crypto Fear &amp; Greed Index.

The global cryptocurrency market capitalization stood at $3.52 trillion, growing by 1.99% in the last 24 hours.
Stocks edged lower on Wednesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 136.83 points, or 0.31%, to close at 44,713.52. The S&amp;P 500 slid 0.47%, ending at 6,039.31, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite dipped 0.51% to close at 19,632.32.
The slide <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43316048/fed-holds-interest-rates-steady-halts-streak-of-consecutive-cuts-as-inflation-remains-elevated">came after the Fed kept interest rates unchanged</a>, pausing its monetary easing cycle that began in September.

Analyst Notes: Blockchain analytics firm Santiment weighed in on the cryptocurrency market's rebound and its divergence from stocks.
"They [cryptocurrencies and stocks] have been tightly correlated for much of the past 3 years now, but today is a good sign that cryptocurrencies aren&#8217;t entirely fluctuating as simply &#8216;high leveraged tech stocks&#8217;, as many skeptics have been claiming," the research firm said.

Influential cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez sounded the alarm about the prospect of a major Ethereum downside.
"Ethereum MVRV has dropped below the 160-day MA once again. The last time this happened was on June 23, 2024, which led to a 40% price correction from $3,500 to $2,100," the analyst remarked.
MVRV, which stands for Market Value to Realized Value, is a ratio used to assess the value of a cryptocurrency by comparing its current market value to its realized value.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Rise, Defy Stocks Decline As Fed Leaves Rates Unchanged: Top Trader Sees Possible 40% Downside For This Large-Cap Crypto

A group of U.S. investors, with backing from YouTube star Jimmy Donaldson, also known as MrBeast, has amassed over $20 billion to bid for TikTok.
What Happened: The group, led by tech entrepreneur Jesse Tinsley, includes Roblox Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBLX#NYSE">RBLX</a>) CEO David Baszucki and Anchorage Digital CEO Nathan McCauley as investors, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-29/tiktok-bidders-to-offer-significantly-more-than-20-billion">reported</a> Bloomberg on Wednesday.
Tinsley told the publication that their offer is &#8220;significantly higher&#8221; than a competing $20 billion bid. He may have been referring to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/01/42834240/kevin-oleary-joins-the-peoples-bid-for-tiktok-as-pending-ban-looms">Project Liberty bid</a> by former Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt and &#8220;Shark Tank&#8221; star Kevin O'Leary.

What Drives The YouTuber&#8217;s Philanthropy?</a>
MrBeast is not solely committed to this bid. A spokesperson for the YouTuber told the publication Donaldson is in talks with several parties and plans to back the leading offer.
Despite the substantial offer, Tinsley said that they "have not heard back directly" from TikTok&#8217;s parent company, ByteDance, which has stated that TikTok&#8217;s U.S. business is not for sale.

Why It Matters: Previously President Donald Trump said that Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) has also been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43260646/microsoft-eyes-tiktok-us-deal-as-trump-confirms-acquisition-talks-are-underway">in talks to acquire TikTok&#8217;s U.S.</a> operations.
Trump has suggested that the U.S. government should hold a 50% stake in TikTok to ensure no Chinese involvement.
Oracle Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) co-founder and chairman Larry Ellison, along with Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk, have also emerged as possible contenders for the TikTok deal, which could help the platform reach a $1 trillion valuation.
Wedbush analyst Dan Ives estimates the sale could range <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/01/43181940/elon-musk-or-larry-ellison-dan-ives-on-who-could-win-tiktoks-billion-dollar-soap-opera-someone-hand-picked-from-beijing-but-also-trumps-white-house">between $40 billion and $50 billion</a>.
Saudi Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal&#8217;s investment firm has also shown interest in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/01/43124020/saudi-princes-investment-firm-reportedly-interested-in-investing-in-tiktok-if-elon-musk-offers-to-buy-it">investing in TikTok</a> if Musk or others make a purchase offer.
