Why It Matters: Netflix&#8217;s fourth-quarter results have been described as one of the best in the company&#8217;s history.
The streaming giant brought its total paid memberships to 301.63 million compared to 290.9 million estimated. It also reported $10.25 billion in revenue, beating the expected $10.11 billion, and an EPS of $4.27, exceeding the projected $4.19.&nbsp;
However, Netflix's first-quarter 2025 guidance slightly missed expectations, with forecasted revenue of $10.42 billion (vs. $10.48 billion expected) and EPS of $5.58 (vs. $6.01 expected).
Analysts have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/01/43136402/netflix-stock-firing-on-all-cylinders-10-analysts-react-to-q4-beat-guidance-price-increases">adjusted their price targets</a> for Netflix, with Macquarie analyst Tim Nollen raising the target from $965 to $1,150, and KeyBanc analyst Justin Patterson increasing it from $1,000 to $1,100.
Netflix has also surpassed the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/25/01/43145703/netflix-worth-more-than-disney-paramount-comcast-fox-combined">combined market cap</a> of entertainment giants like Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>), Paramount Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>) and Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>).
Price Action: Black predicted a 20% upside for Netflix on Wednesday. During regular trading, the stock gained 9.69%, though it edged down 0.49% in after-hours trading.
Despite the slight after-hours dip, NFLX has delivered impressive gains this year, rising 7.59% year-to-date and an astounding 96.41% over the past 12 months, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
Netflix currently has a Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 67, indicating that the stock is in neutral territory.

Netflix Crushed Q4 Thanks To Sports, Squid Game, Says Gary Black: Analyst Highlights Low Attrition Despite Price Hikes, Predicts Stock Upside

Leading cryptocurrencies dipped on Wednesday, diverging with the stock market rally, as the market expects more from the new Donald Trump administration.

What Happened: Bitcoin steadily fell from the highs of $107,000 tapped the day before. The top cryptocurrency hit an intraday low of $102,561 overnight.
Ethereum followed a similar trajectory, losing more than 2% of its value in the last 24 hours. The second-largest cryptocurrency has suffered losses of more than 5% over the week.
Though the SEC under acting Chairman Mark Uyeda launched a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/25/01/43110946/sec-launches-crypto-task-force-to-establish-clear-regulatory-framework"> dedicated cryptocurrency task force</a> to frame regulations for the industry, investors have been left disappointed due to no cryptocurrency-related executive orders from Trump thus far.
In the past 24 hours, 96,027 traders were liquidated, with total liquidations at $185.56 million. Upside bets worth $133.52 million were wiped out.
Long liquidations likely caused Bitcoin's Open Interest to slip by 3.06% in the last 24 hours.
That said, a rebound to $107,000 could liquidate nearly $565 million worth of short positions.
The market sentiment cooled from "Extreme Greed" to "Greed" over the last 24 hours, according to the Crypto Fear &amp; Greed Index.

Analyst Notes: Widely followed cryptocurrency technical analyst Rekt Capital noted that Bitcoin likely entered a re-accumulation phase before trend continuation to new all-time highs.
"The last time Bitcoin experienced re-accumulation was in the post-halving re-accumulation phase. Bitcoin rallied +46% upon breakout from that phase," the analyst added.
A similar move could propel the apex cryptocurrency to nearly $150,000, Rekt Capital projected.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Drop Amid Stock Rally, Cooling Investor Sentiment On Trump: Analyst Projects BTC At $150K If History Repeats

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has seen a staggering $510 billion decline in market capitalization over the past three weeks, paving the way for Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) to reclaim its position as the world&#8217;s largest company, according to analysis from The Kobeissi Letter.
What Happened: The market shift stems from Apple&#8217;s significant challenges in the Chinese smartphone market, where annual iPhone shipments dropped 17% in 2024—the largest annual sales decline since 2016. Apple has now fallen behind local competitors Vivo and Huawei in China&#8217;s competitive smartphone landscape.
Investor Warren Buffett, long a proponent of Apple, recently reduced Berkshire Hathaway&#8216;s Apple stake by 25%, maintaining 300 million shares. Despite this reduction, Apple remains a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43132892/warren-buffett-once-claimed-iphones-are-so-great-that-no-one-would-take-10000-to-stop-buying-them">critical 26% of Berkshire&#8217;s portfolio</a>.

JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee attributes Apple&#8217;s struggles to multiple factors, including currency headwinds, limited AI feature adoption, and challenging market conditions in China. The analyst expects Apple&#8217;s first-quarter earnings to fall slightly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/43097512/apples-ai-advances-cant-offset-chinese-market-slowdown-says-analyst">below consensus estimates</a>, with potential guidance disappointments.

Why It Matters: Needham analyst Laura Martin remains cautiously optimistic, maintaining a $260 price target and highlighting Apple&#8217;s potential in services, wearables, and emerging technologies like Vision Pro. However, Martin acknowledges the company&#8217;s heavy <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/01/43110913/apples-iphone-dependence-remains-but-services-wearables-offer-growth-potential-analyst">dependence on iPhone sales</a>.
The evolving tech landscape presents significant challenges for Apple, with local Chinese brands and AI-powered competitors increasingly threatening its market dominance. As Nvidia capitalizes on AI technological advancements, Apple faces critical questions about innovation and global market strategy, according to The Kobeissi.
Price Action: Apple&#8217;s stock closed at $223.83 on Wednesday, gaining 0.53% during the regular session. In after-hours trading, the stock dipped 0.29%. Over the past 52 weeks, Apple has traded between a low of $164.08 and a high of $260.09, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Apple's $510 Billion Market Cap Drop Opens Door For Nvidia To Reclaim World's Largest Company Title Amid iPhone Maker's China Struggles

JP Morgan Chase (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) CEO, Jamie Dimon, expressed his approval of President Donald Trump&#8217;s proposed tariffs on several countries, including Canada, Mexico, and China on Wednesday.
What Happened: During a discussion at the World Economic Forum, Dimon argued that the national security benefits of these tariffs would surpass any potential inflationary impact. He was quoted saying, &#8220;If it&#8217;s a little inflationary, but it&#8217;s good for national security, so be it. I mean, get over it,&#8221; <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/22/jamie-dimon-on-trumps-tariffs-get-over-it.html">reported</a> CNBC.
Dimon also referred to tariffs as an &#8220;economic tool,&#8221; and dismissed the idea that they are inherently inflationary. His comments come amidst claims from some economists that tariffs would increase prices for American consumers and harm the country&#8217;s economy.
"Tariffs can change the dollar, but the most important thing is growth," Dimon said in the interview.
Dimon wasn't the only Wall Street leader expressing optimism about tariffs. Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon, speaking at Davos, said that business leaders have been adapting to potential policy changes, including trade.
 He described the shifts as a &#8220;rebalancing&#8221; of trade agreements that, if managed carefully, could benefit U.S. growth. Solomon emphasized the importance of a thoughtful approach, noting that some measures are likely part of broader negotiation strategies. &#8220;Used appropriately, it can be constructive,&#8221; he said, adding that the situation will evolve over time and requires close monitoring.
Why It Matters: Trump had previously announced his consideration of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/emerging-market-etfs/25/01/43130930/trump-looking-at-10-tariff-on-china-starting-feb-1">10% tariff on goods</a> from China, which could take effect as early as Feb.1.
This was followed by his pledge to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43103527/mexican-peso-canadian-dollar-slide-as-trump-threatens-25-tariffs-expert-eyes-price-hikes-on-typical-us-breakfast">impose 25% tariffs on imports</a> from Canada and Mexico starting Feb. 1, causing the Mexican peso and Canadian dollar to weaken.
These proposed tariffs have sparked debates among economists, trade experts, and consumers, as they could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42367505/economists-warn-trumps-tariffs-on-canada-mexico-and-china-could-hurt-your-budget-more-than-help-it">lead to higher costs</a> for American households. Economic analyst Catherine Rampell warned that the tariffs could raise prices on a wide range of consumer goods.

Jamie Dimo Supports Trump's Tariffs: 'If It's A Little Inflationary, But It's Good For National Security, So Be It'

Wallets belonging to Ross Ulbricht, the imprisoned creator of the illegal drug marketplace&nbsp;Silk Road, were discovered on Wednesday, containing as many as 430 Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) unmoved for over 13 years.
What Happened: In an X post, Conor Grogan, a director at&nbsp;Coinbase, said that he had found nearly 430 BTC across multiple wallets linked to Ulbricht. These wallets were not seized by the U.S. government and have remained untouched for over 13 years. 
&#8220;Back then these were probably&nbsp;dust wallets, now, collectively, they&nbsp;are worth about $47 million,&#8221; Grogan disclosed in the post. At the current prices, the value of these assets amounted to $44.48 million.

It&#8217;s uncertain whether Ulbricht still has access to the keys to these wallets. Grogan said, &#8220;We will know soon enough,&#8221; suggesting that it&#8217;d be clear if the dormant Bitcoins start to move.
A section of the cryptocurrency community didn&#8217;t approve Conor making the wallet details public. In his defense, he said they were already public and cited in Ulbricht&#8217;s trial documents.

Why It Matters: This discovery comes shortly after President Donald Trump pardoned Ulbricht, fulfilling a campaign promise. Trump granted Ulbricht a &#8220;full and unconditional&#8221; pardon in support of the of the Libertarian Movement
Ulbricht was serving a double life sentence since 2013 for creating the darknet website, a hub of the illegal trafficking of heroin, cocaine, LSD, and other substances, all paid for in Bitcoin.
It remained to be seen whether Ulbricht would be able to access these funds following his pardon.

Bitcoin Worth $44 Million Found In Ross Ulbricht's Wallets  — Will The Freshly Pardoned Silk Road Founder Move The Coins?

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is gearing up for his first foreign tour, with Panama on his itinerary, amid rising tensions over the Panama Canal.
What Happened: Rubio&#8217;s inaugural foreign trip as Secretary of State will also include Guatemala, El Salvador, Costa Rica, and the Dominican Republic. However, these plans are still tentative, according to officials privy to the matter, <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/01/22/marco-rubio-panama-00200137">reported</a> Politico.
This visit, which could reportedly take place as early as next week, follows President Donald Trump&#8217;s controversial remarks hinting at the U.S. potentially reclaiming the Panama Canal. These comments have sparked a diplomatic spat with Panama. &#8220;The Panama Canal belongs to Panama and will continue to belong to Panama,&#8221; asserted Panama&#8217;s President, José Raúl Mulino, at the World Economic Forum earlier this week.
During his tour, Rubio is expected to tackle two critical issues on the MAGA foreign policy agenda: illegal migration and the Panama Canal. The countries on Rubio&#8217;s travel list,&nbsp;including Guatemala and El Salvador,&nbsp;are key transit points for migrants heading to the U.S. southern border.
In a recent memo&nbsp;to State Department employees, Rubio&nbsp;underscored mass migration as &#8220;among&nbsp;the most consequential issues of&nbsp;our time&#8221; and committed to collaborating with Western Hemisphere nations to stem illegal immigration.
The State Department has not yet commented on Rubio&#8217;s impending travel.
Why It Matters: The controversy over the Panama Canal has been brewing for some time. In January, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/42864556/trump-does-not-rule-out-military-force-to-acquire-panama-canal-greenland-we-need-them-for-economic-security">Trump refused to rule out the use of military force</a> to regain control of the canal, citing economic security. 
Trump&#8217;s comments sparked backlash from Panama&#8217;s President Mulino, who <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42639737/trumps-call-to-reclaim-panama-canal-sparks-backlash-every-square-meter-belongs-to-panama-says-president-mulino">asserted Panama&#8217;s ownership of the canal</a> in December. 
Trump&#8217;s threat to seize the canal, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/01/43036986/trumps-2-5-billion-power-play-what-seizing-the-panama-canal-would-cost">generates $2.5 billion in annual revenue for Panama</a> and handles 5% of global maritime trade, has raised concerns about potential disruption to international commerce.

Marco Rubio Reportedly Set To Visit Panama Amid Trump's Canal Rhetoric

Artificial intelligence and AI agents are changing the workforce and the job market, according to a report from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/search?q=World+Economic+Forum#:~:text=Adam%20Eckert,1%3A40%20PM">World Economic Forum.&nbsp;</a>
The Details: According to the WEF's The Future of Jobs Report 2025, 41% of employers surveyed expect to reduce the size of their workforces in the next five years, specifically in roles "where AI can replicate people's work." 
The survey's respondents expect the fastest-declining roles to include cashiers and ticket clerks, administrative assistants and executive secretaries, printing workers, accountants and auditors. The WEF primarily attributed the decline in demand for these clerical roles to AI and information processing technologies, robots and autonomous systems.

Growth in AI and information processing technology is expected to create 11 million jobs, while eliminating nine million others, more than any other technology trend. 
The WEF pointed to robotics and autonomous systems as the largest net job displacer, with a net decline of five million jobs.
"Trends such as generative AI and rapid technological shifts are upending industries and labor markets, creating both unprecedented opportunities and profound risks," said Till Leopold, head of Work, Wages and Job Creation at WEF. 
"The time is now for businesses and governments to work together, invest in skills, and build an equitable and resilient global workforce," Leopold added.&nbsp;
AI Agents: Some companies like Oracle Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) and Salesforce, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) are developing AI agents designed to automate repetitive and time-consuming tasks. These AI agents could contribute to some of the job displacement the WEF highlighted. 
Oracle offers more than 50 role-based AI agents within its Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications Suite which can <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ORCL#:~:text=Oracle%20AI%20Agents%20Help%20Sales%20Teams%20Create%20More%20Meaningful%20Customer%20Connections">perform tasks</a> in the areas of finance, sales, customer service and marketing. Salesforce's Agentforce is an AI platform that enables companies and organizations <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42917603/salesforce-empowers-retailers-with-ai-to-boost-efficiency-and-sales">to build</a> customized autonomous AI agents for various business functions.
Experts predict AI agents will grow to become commonplace in the near term. 
"Agents are the next step in putting AI to work in the real world. Consumers should expect almost every major business they interact with to create an agent. We'll see agents supporting customers in banking, insurance, healthcare and retail. By this time next year, agents will be a reality of our collective digital lives," Paul Drews, managing partner for Salesforce Ventures<a href="https://www.fastcompany.com/91254053/25-experts-predict-how-ai-will-change-business-and-life-in-2025"> told</a> Fast Company.&nbsp;

AI, AI Agents Will Create 'Unprecedented Opportunities And Profound Risks,' World Economic Forum Says

Social media followers of the president, first lady and vice president were surprised to learn that they now follow people they may not have wanted to after Donald Trump was inaugurated as<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/01/43139381/how-many-people-watched-donald-trumps-2025-inauguration-spoiler-less-than-biden-four-years-ago"> president on Monday.</a>
What Happened: Users of Instagram and Facebook, which are owned by Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), have experienced several recent changes including CEO Mark Zuckerberg announcing the end of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42851889/meta-ditches-fact-checking-for-community-notes-zuckerberg-says-opportunity-to-restore-free-expression">content moderation teams</a>.
Instagram and Facebook users who followed Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Jill Biden over the past several years were also surprised to find themselves now following Donald Trump, J.D. Vance and Melania Trump after Monday.
Users were quick to blame Meta Platforms and cite the potential influence of Zuckerberg, who has been cozying up to Trump in recent months. Zuckerberg attended the inauguration and Meta recently donated $1 million to the president's inauguration fund.
Some users reported they were unable to unfollow the accounts of the new political leaders, including singer Demi Lovato, as reported by <a href="https://variety.com/2025/digital/news/facebook-instagram-users-forced-trump-vance-follow-1236282155/">Variety</a>.
"I have unfollowed this guy twice today," Lovato said of the @vp account now belonging to Vance. "Shady f&#x2A;&#x2A;&#x2A;ing business meta."
Meta contends they have done nothing wrong and this is the practice done in past presidential transitions. The official accounts for @potus, @vp and @flotus have been transferred over to the new people in those roles, while keeping the same followers and the content being wiped clean and archived to other accounts.
"People were not made to automatically follow any of the official Facebook or Instagram accounts for the president, vice president or first lady," Meta spokesperson Andy Stone <a href="https://www.threads.net/@andymstone/post/DFImiJsPblY">said </a>in a post on Threads. "Those accounts are managed by the White House so with a new administration, the content on those Pages changes."
Stone said the same changes took place when Biden took over as president for Trump in 2021. One potential difference is the ability to unfollow these particular accounts.
"It may take some time for follow and unfollow requests to go through as these accounts change hands," Stone added.
Users can follow and unfollow other accounts without any problem as of time of writing of this article.
Here are the current follower accounts for several mentioned Instagram accounts:
<ul>
<li>@potus (now Trump): 16.8 million</li>
<li>@realdonaldtrump (his existing account): 31.2 million</li>
<li>@potus46archive (Joe Biden's old account): 18.7 million</li>
<li>@flotus (now Melania Trump): 4.1 million</li>
<li>@flotus46archive (Jill Biden's old account): 4.1 million</li>
<li>@joebiden (Joe Biden's existing account): 17 million</li>
<li>@vp (now Vance): 15.7 million</li>
<li>@vp46archive (Harris's old account): 16.9 million</li>
<li>@kamalaharris (Kamala Harris's existing account): 19.6 million</li>
</ul>
The accounts had the same number of followers when they were archived as they did for the new account holder. This means that the VP and POTUS accounts have lost followers since the transition took place.

</ul>
X Does It A Little Differently: Social media accounts with the names POTUS, VP and FLOTUS belong to the people in those roles. The question is how to manage the transition.
With users upset, the question now becomes whether social media companies should have to alert users that they are now following new people or if the accounts should start over from 0.
Platform X, which is owned by Trump-ally Elon Musk, chooses to do the latter.
Followers of the @potus, @vp and @flotus accounts on X saw those accounts change names to archived accounts. Users were not forced to follow the @potus, @vp and @flotus accounts once again as they started from 0 with the new names and faces attached.
Here's a look at the current follower accounts on X:
<ul>
<li>@potus: 1.5 million</li>
<li>@potus46archive: 37 million</li>
<li>@potus45: 31.4 million</li>
<li>@potus44: 12.9 million</li>
<li>@flotus: 116.1 thousand</li>
<li>@flotus46archive: 4.4 million</li>
<li>@vp: 424.9 thousand</li>
<li>@vp46archive: 14.9 million</li>
</ul>
Many politicians have existing accounts and use the official White House accounts along with their own personal ones. This means outgoing parties like Biden and Harris have their own accounts they will now use. For reference, here are the followers on those accounts along with former President Barack Obama:
<ul>
<li>Biden: 38.2 million</li>
<li>Harris: 21.0 million</li>
<li>Trump: 99.1 million</li>
<li>Obama: 130.8 million</li>
</ul>
Obama is ranked as the second most-followed person on X, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/10/41168674/elon-musk-passes-200-million-followers-on-x-heres-the-top-10-accounts-and-where-barack-obama">trailing only Musk</a> (213.7 million). Trump's personal account ranks eighth currently.
According to data from <a href="https://socialblade.com/twitter/user/potus">SocialBlade</a>, the @potus account ended Jan. 20 with 702,038 followers.
Trump's personal account has added 2.7 million followers over the past 30 days, averaging a gain of 89,571 daily. Biden's personal account has lost 33,118 followers over the past 30 days, averaging a daily loss of 1,104 a day.
Social media users should be aware of these policies and know who they are following as it may have changed after Monday.

President Donald Trump's plan to add a 25% tariff on goods from Mexico and Canada by Feb. 1 has started a big argument about whether it's legal and how it could hurt the economy.&nbsp;
Former New York prosecutor Tristan Snell said there was &#8220;one small problem&#8221; with Trump&#8217;s announcement. &#8220;The president does NOT have unilateral power to change tariff rates,&#8221; he <a href="https://x.com/TristanSnell/status/1881525990863823231">said</a> on X on Tuesday and also raised a critical question: &#8220;Will GOP representatives and senators vote to destroy their local economies?&#8221; According to him, significant changes to trade policy require Congressional approval.

The president does NOT have unilateral power to change tariff rates. Trump needs Congress &#8211; and will GOP reps and senators vote to destroy their local economies?

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can Trump Legally Impose These Tariffs?</h2>
While the president has some executive tools, like the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) and sections of the Trade Acts of 1930 and 1974, these measures are subject to legal constraints per law firm Buchanan Ingersoll &amp; Rooney. For instance:
<ul>
<li>Although IEEPA permits tariffs in times of national emergency, it is unprecedented to use it to apply tariffs all at once and doing so would probably be challenged in court.</li>
<li>Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 permits a temporary 15% import surcharge to address balance-of-payment deficits, but it is limited in scope and duration.</li>
<li>Article 1, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution grants Congress, not the president, the power to impose taxes and duties. While Trump could try to leverage a Republican majority, bypassing Congress altogether would be legally questionable.</li>
</ul>
Economists and trade experts question whether Trump will follow through with his tariff threats. Goldman Sachs economist <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43103527/mexican-peso-canadian-dollar-slide-as-trump-threatens-25-tariffs-expert-eyes-price-hikes-on-typical-us-breakfast">Alec Phillips noted</a> that similar proposals in Trump's first term often fizzled out before implementation.&nbsp;
Trending: ‘Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">You can invest today for just $0.26/share with a $1000 minimum.</a>
"Despite Trump&#8217;s comments, we continue to believe the odds of a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico are low at 20%. We are lowering our odds of a universal tariff this year to 25%," Phillips said in a note.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How Could Tariffs Impact Neighboring States?</h2>
Trump&#8217;s proposal may greatly impact states in the United States that rely on commerce with Canada and Mexico. Supply chain interruptions could occur in border areas like Texas, California and Michigan, which depend on imports for sectors like the automobile industry.&nbsp;
Similarly, agricultural states such as Iowa, which export heavily to Mexico, might face retaliatory tariffs that harm farmers. Everyday goods, including groceries and beverages, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42344194/these-products-will-likely-see-price-hikes-due-to-trumps-tariffs-on-canada-and-mexico-2">could become more expensive</a>, exacerbating inflation.&nbsp;
Furthermore, businesses involved in cross-border commerce may face difficulties due to rising production costs, which could lead to job losses in the retail, industrial and agricultural sectors.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Canada and Mexico Push Back</h2>
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau criticized the tariff threat, promising that Canada would fight back with equal tariffs if necessary. "Canada will respond and everything is on the table," Trudeau said, emphasizing Canada&#8217;s critical role in providing resources like steel, aluminum and energy. He also warned that alienating Canada could force the U.S. to source goods from adversarial nations like China or Russia.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum took a calmer approach, emphasizing the importance of diplomacy while defending Mexico's independence. She pointed out that both countries would face economic harm if the tariffs were enforced.
President Donald Trump argues that the proposed tariffs on Mexico and Canada are necessary to protect American workers and industries. He believes these measures will curb illegal immigration and drug trafficking, which he ties to cross-border trade issues. Trump has also stated that tariffs will generate revenue for the U.S. while encouraging domestic production, reducing reliance on foreign goods.
As Trump's administration doubles down on its aggressive trade agenda, all eyes are on Congress. Will GOP lawmakers back these tariffs, knowing the potential damage to local economies? With legal hurdles and economic risks mounting, the debate over Trump's tariff policy is far from over.

As two people deeply impacted by cannabis, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mike-tyson">Mike Tyson</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/weldon-angelos">Weldon Angelos</a>, a justice reform advocate, applauded President Donald Trump's recent commitment to cannabis reforms, in an opinion piece <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/mike-tyson-weldon-angelos-hope-trump-fight-awful-marijuana-laws-biden-wouldnt-bother">published</a> by Fox News. 
These include rescheduling cannabis, ensuring banking access for cannabis businesses and granting clemency to those serving federal sentences for marijuana offenses.
Angelos criticized the inadequacy of President Joe Biden's efforts. Despite <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/22/10/29175510/breaking-biden-announces-pardons-for-all-federal-marijuana-possession-convictions">numerous promises</a> to decriminalize marijuana and expunge records, Biden's widely publicized <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/12/36361671/biden-pardons-thousands-convicted-of-cannabis-possession-calls-on-governors-to-do-the-same">misdemeanor pardons</a> "freed no one, restored no civil rights, and expunged no records," Angelos wrote.
Even Biden's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/25/01/43054504/biden-commutes-sentences-of-nearly-2500-convicted-of-non-violent-drug-offenses-no-mention-of-cannabis-prisoners">last-minute clemency wave</a> largely bypassed marijuana offenders, with only a handful of cases benefiting from reforms. "This failure to prioritize marijuana clemency is bewildering," says Angelos. "Of all those impacted by harsh drug policies, individuals serving time for marijuana-related crimes are among the most deserving of relief."
Cannabis's continued classification as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/controlled-substances-act">Schedule I drug </a>alongside heroin exacerbates the issue. This outdated designation prevents legitimate cannabis businesses from accessing banking services, forcing them to operate in cash, which invites crime and hampers growth. "Democrats had two years of controlling Congress and the presidency but failed to deliver meaningful cannabis reform," Angelos said.
Tyson echoes Angelos's concerns, underscoring cannabis's transformative potential. As the founder of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tyson-2-0">TYSON 2.0</a>, a global cannabis brand, Tyson has long viewed the industry as a platform for wellness, innovation and entrepreneurship. "The cannabis industry is a multi-billion-dollar market employing hundreds of thousands of Americans and generating significant tax revenue," he says. Yet federal prohibition stifles its growth and leaves thousands imprisoned for cannabis-related offenses, devastating families and communities.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Tyson and Angelos Commend Trump's History of Action</h1>
Angelos benefited directly from Trump when he received a full pardon in 2020 after serving 13 years of a 55-year sentence for marijuana. Tyson said he's known Trump for years and he's &#8220;a man of his word, willing to take bold and compassionate action."
Tyson added, "His recent support for cannabis rescheduling, banking reform and clemency underscores his understanding of what's at stake — for the economy, for justice and for the thousands of families torn apart by outdated cannabis laws.&#8221;

Trump's Cannabis Reform: Mike Tyson, Weldon Angelos Say President Can Get It Done

Strong winds have caused another wildfire in Los Angeles County following the devastation wrought by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43066552/celebrity-realtor-josh-altman-says-half-of-palisades-residents-wont-move-back-after-fire">fires in Pacific Palisades</a> and Altadena.
What Happened: The Hughes Fire broke out midday Wednesday during a period of high winds in the area.

Here's How Much $1000 Invested In Marathon Petroleum 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

Warren Buffett, one of the wealthiest individuals in history, has never shied away from sharing his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42364120/warren-buffett-was-married-to-one-woman-lived-with-another-and-sent-christmas-cards-signed-by-all-3-daughter-says-not-a-bad-thing">unorthodox views</a> on wealth and inheritance. Known for his financial genius and no-nonsense demeanor, Buffett has consistently rejected the idea of passing down unearned fortunes to his children. In his eyes, inherited wealth isn't a gift – it's a trap.
In a 1986 Fortune magazine interview, Buffett laid out his philosophy with striking clarity: "The perfect amount to leave your children is enough money so that they would feel they could do anything but not so much that they could do nothing." For him, leaving his kids a "lifetime supply of food stamps just because they came out of the right womb" was not only wasteful but harmful – an anti-social act. His stance was rooted in the belief that wealth without effort undermines character and fosters a dependency no better than the one critics of welfare programs often rail against.

<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
</ul>
While some billionaires seek to control how their children spend inherited money through intricate trust structures, Buffett took a different approach. He emphasized giving them the tools to succeed, not a crutch to lean on indefinitely.
According to his biography, Buffett's disdain for unearned wealth runs deep. "Around country clubs, you hear people talking about the debilitating aspects of a welfare cycle … These same people are leaving their kids with a lifetime supply of food stamps and beyond," he remarked. The contradiction drove him crazy: "Instead of a welfare officer, they have a trust fund officer." Buffett's solution? You shouldn't consume more than you produce.
Still, Buffett hasn't left his children out of the picture entirely. He's entrusted them with overseeing charitable foundations, ensuring they have a role in shaping his philanthropic legacy. This choice transforms them into some of the world's most influential philanthropists, directing billions toward causes that matter to the family. A 2016 Atlantic article reported that Buffett's children will oversee charitable trusts tied to the family's foundations, including an Omaha-focused grant-making powerhouse.

For Buffett, the balance between support and independence is crucial. He wants his kids to feel empowered to pursue their passions but believes handing them too much wealth would strip them of purpose. As he told Fortune, "A few hundred thousand dollars sounds about right."

The foundation is dedicated to empowering women and girls, advancing social and emotional learning and supporting Indigenous communities.

Meanwhile, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40881429/warren-buffetts-daughter-asked-him-for-a-41-000-loan-to-remodel-her-kitchen-but-the-billionaire-">Susan</a> chairs initiatives that champion education and social justice, focusing on creating meaningful change in underserved communities.
Buffett's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">views on wealth and inheritance</a> challenge societal norms, particularly among the ultrarich. His philosophy forces us to ask: Is it really a gift to leave massive wealth to the next generation or does it hinder their potential? For Buffett, the answer is clear: Wealth should be a tool for doing good, not an excuse for doing nothing.

Here&#8217;s a rundown <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b43145255/discover-financial-services-reports-fourth-quarter-2024-net-income-of-1-3-billion-or-5-11-per-dilu">of the report</a>.

$1000 Invested In This Stock 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

MicroStrategy Incorporated (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) shares closed down Wednesday, due to a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43142275/bitcoin-ethereum-xrp-dogecoin-reel-downwards-but-trader-hints-at-bitcoin-god-candle-loading"> decline in Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: BTC/USD) price</a>, which dropped 1.73% to $104,313.65.
What To Know: Bitcoin transaction volume over $100,000 decreased by 15%, while netflows dropped 307%, signaling a possible cooling of market activity. Over $161 million in liquidations occurred in the past 24 hours, which put additional pressure on the market. 
While BlackRock clients facilitated the purchase of $600 million in Bitcoin via an ETF, market sentiment remains cautious due to the nature of these transactions.
Bitcoin's liquidity is concentrated between $96,000 and $111,000, with support levels between $88,000-$95,000. If these levels fail, Bitcoin could drop further, potentially impacting MicroStrategy's stock as well. 
Despite the short-term volatility, Bitcoin&#8217;s overall bullish trend remains intact as long as it stays above $58,000, which provides some stability for MicroStrategy.
Why It Matters: For MicroStrategy, the company's heavy exposure to Bitcoin potentially means its stock is especially sensitive to Bitcoin's price. The company also recently received shareholder approval for a proposal to increase its share count, which could lead to more Bitcoin purchases in the future. 
MSTR Price Action: Microstrategy shares closed Wednesday down 3.03% at $377.31, according to<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/pro/register/?utm_source=BZprocontent072224&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"> Benzinga Pro.</a>

MicroStrategy Shares Are Down With Bitcoin Today: What's Going On?

Wall Street has shown time and again that it's resilient enough to withstand a variety of challenging macroeconomic conditions.&nbsp;
From the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43001512/inflation-rises-to-29-in-december-core-slows-yet-rising-energy-costs-put-feds-target-at-risk">high inflation</a> barrage of 2022 to a 5.5% peak in interest rates beginning in 2023, the S&amp;P 500's recovery to new all-time highs is a bullish signal. But what impact could the prospect of fewer rate cuts in 2025 have on the overall health of the market?&nbsp;
January 2025 saw Fed officials indicate that they <a href="https://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/news/258864/will-the-us-fed-raise-interest-rates-in-2025.aspx#:~:text=Fed%20officials%20indicated%20they%20now,cuts)%20in%20their%20September%20projections." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">now expect two rate cuts</a> amounting to a half point throughout the year ahead. The news compounded the S&amp;P 500's steady decline in what's set to be a period of economic uncertainty for markets as the unpredictable President-elect Donald Trump approaches his second term in the White House. 
As recently as September, officials were anticipating a full percentage point of cuts throughout 2025 at a crucial time for Wall Street firms seeking to take advantage of lower borrowing costs to embrace the ongoing AI boom surrounding key sectors.&nbsp;
Lower interest rates are generally bullish for US firms because the lower cost of borrowing helps to facilitate more spending, investing, and hiring strategies.&nbsp;
Although US Bank data suggests that equity investors appear to be <a href="https://www.usbank.com/investing/financial-perspectives/market-news/how-do-rising-interest-rates-affect-the-stock-market.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">more focused</a> on factors like the wider economy and corporate earnings ahead of interest rates, a higher-for-longer environment could profoundly impact the growth of the most innovative players throughout US markets in 2025. This could have a domino effect on the growth of innovation throughout the AI sector and strong-performing markets in recent years. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Keeping the Good Times Rolling&nbsp;</h2>
Tech stocks populate around one-third of the S&amp;P 500 index, and recent advances in AI and the hype surrounding innovations throughout the sector have played a key role in enabling Wall Street to shake off jitters related to historically high inflation and interest rate hikes in recent years.&nbsp;
Shares in leading AI stocks like Nvidia and Broadcom, which rallied 171% and 108% respectively in 2024, have helped to sustain the S&amp;P 500's outperformance, with the index surging 23.31% throughout the year with 57 record closes.&nbsp;
However, in the 21st Century, the average gain of the S&amp;P 500 is closer to 10% per year. It's this contrast that underlines the importance of the AI boom to Wall Street's health.&nbsp;
JPMorgan data has laid bare the historical parallels between Federal Reserve rate cuts and bullish sentiment on Wall Street. Since 1980, <a href="https://www.jpmorgan.com/insights/markets/top-market-takeaways/tmt-rate-cut-breakdown-what-you-need-to-know-now" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">five of the best 10 years</a> for the S&amp;P 500 happened when the Fed was cutting rates without a recession. Additionally, the Fed has cut rates 12 times when the index was within 1% of its all-time high, and in all 12 cases, the market was higher one year later–boasting a median return of 15%. 
Because the immediate effect of rate cuts involves a reduction in borrowing costs, these dovish reversions generally <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/what-fintech-industry-can-expect-from-rate-cut-later-year-oslgc#:~:text=Impact%20on%20Capital%20and%20Investment,wave%20of%20innovation%20and%20expansion.">improve consumer spending</a> as well as investment in innovation. This paves the way for cheaper access to capital and far stronger growth prospects.&nbsp;
At a time when the generative AI boom is moving from its hype phase to its implementation phase, this access to spending is imperative for the sustainability of Wall Street's brightest tech startups, and a more hawkish stance from the Fed could stifle the scaling up of artificial intelligence adoption.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Could Higher Rates Bring Growth?&nbsp;</h2>
Other high-growth industries like fintech could present solutions to consumers during a higher-for-longer interest rate environment that helps to keep stocks within the sector higher amid the uncertainty.&nbsp;
Although higher rates will stifle consumer appetite for borrowing, innovations <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/fintech/25/01/42818294/how-fintech-must-evolve-to-meet-the-needs-of-techs-new-wealth" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">within fintech like open banking</a> and buy now pay later (BNPL) could empower consumers to navigate the challenging economic climate. 
While open banking can help to promote financial management and literacy across various banking, investing, and saving apps, the <a href="https://www.eposnow.com/us/resources/payment-trends/#buy-now-pay-later" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">emerging BNPL trend</a> paves the way for access to borrowing for essential purchases that are usually interest-free. 
With this in mind, we could see the fintech landscape continue to grow as a solution to high interest rates while other major tech industries are hampered by higher costs during their scaling process.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Wall Street's Trump Card</h2>
Donald Trump's second term in the White House is sure to influence the performance of US markets alongside interest rates throughout 2025.&nbsp;
Concerns over the President-elect's tariffs and a stronger US Dollar, both of which could be inflationary, may significantly impact the Federal Reserve's stance on interest rates throughout the year.&nbsp;
Should a strengthening dollar begin to <a href="https://www.ig.com/au/trading-strategies/Why-US-rate-cuts-in-2025-could-surpass-current-expectations-250108" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">impact the ability of US manufacturers</a> and exporters to trade internationally, we could see the Fed cut rates to maintain a level of competitiveness across global markets. 
On the flip side, Trump's stance on deregulation could be such a catalyst for growth that it <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/federal-reserve-fed-interest-rates-analyst-reaction-wall-street-stocks-2024-12" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">pushes yields higher</a> and prompts a Federal Reserve intervention, according to Jochen Stanzl, chief market analyst at CMC Markets. It's for this reason that early inflation data surrounding Trump's Presidency will be crucial for the future of rate cuts. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What to Expect in 2025</h2>
The sheer power of the ongoing AI boom means that we're likely to see a high level of resilience in the S&amp;P 500 even in the most unpredictable of market circumstances. However, all bets are off when it comes to the rate cuts we're likely to see throughout the year.&nbsp;
While the Fed anticipates two cuts in 2025, Trump's arrival in the White House will be the deciding factor for the direction that both interest and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/inflation" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">inflation</a> take in the new year. 
As a hedge against the uncertainty, there may be more value in fintech moving forward, but the best approach for investors is to avoid resting on laurels and to continue to analyze emerging market and inflation data.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/russell-2000-index">러셀 2000 소형주</a> 주식 중 거래량이 100만 달러 이상이고 매수 이상의 추천을 받은 주식을 분석했다.
그 가운데 <a href="https://finviz.com/screener.ashx?v=121&amp;f=an_recom_buybetter,cap_small,idx_rut,sh_curvol_o1000&amp;ft=4&amp;o=-perfytd">놀라운</a> 연초 대비 수익률을 기록한 4개의 주식이 있다: D-웨이브 퀀텀(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QBTS#NYSE">QBTS</a>), 이노데이터(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INOD#NASDAQ">INOD</a>), 나노 뉴클리어 에너지(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NNE#NASDAQ">NNE</a>) 그리고 인튜이티브 머신스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUNR#NASDAQ">LUNR</a>)이다.
각 회사는 산업을 재편하는 최첨단 테마를 대표한다: 양자 컴퓨팅, 인공지능(AI), 원자력 에너지 그리고 우주 탐사이다. 자세히 살펴보겠다:
참고: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42408217/us-stocks-to-open-lower-as-traders-await-slew-of-data-us-listed-chinese-stocks-in-focus-following-stimulus-pledge">트레이더들이 데이터를 기다리는 가운데 미국 주식은 하락할 것으로 보입니다: 자극책 약속 이후 주목받는 미국 상장 중국 주식</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">D-웨이브 퀀텀</h2>
양자 컴퓨팅은 더 이상 SF 소설이 아니다. 양자 시스템의 선구자인 D-웨이브 퀀텀은 2023년 현재까지 주가가 무려 467.07% 상승하며 러셀 2000(18.88% 상승)과 S&amp;P 500(27.62% 상승)을 압도적으로 앞서나가고 있다.
양자 AI 응용 프로그램에 대한 수요 증가와 혁신적인 시스템 덕분에 D-웨이브는 월스트리트의 상상력을 사로잡았다. 차세대 컴퓨팅 요구에 맞춘 소프트웨어 서비스의 견고한 파이프라인을 갖춘 이 회사는 이 초기 단계의 섹터에서 주목받는 플레이어로 자리 잡았다.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">이노데이터</h2>
AI 열풍은 식을 기미가 보이지 않으며, 이노데이터는 460.08%의 주가 상승으로 이 흐름을 타고 있다. 디지털 솔루션 제공업체인 이노데이터는 생성 AI 붐을 활용하여 엔터프라이즈 서비스를 확장하고 빅테크와의 파트너십을 맺고 있다.
이 회사 자체 생성형 AI(GenAI) 컨설팅 및 디지털 서비스는 기업들이 AI 기반 기술을 원활하게 도입할 수 있도록 지원한다. 산업 전반에 걸쳐 AI 솔루션에 대한 수요가 증가함에 따라 이노데이터의 혁신에 대한 날카로운 초점은 소형주 세계에서의 사랑받는 존재로 만들어 주었다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">나노 뉴클리어 에너지</h2>
원자력 에너지 르네상스가 진행되는 가운데, 나노 뉴클리어 에너지는 386.51%의 주가 상승으로 주목받고 있다.
이 회사는 소형 원자력 솔루션과 연료 수송 시스템으로 전력 생산을 혁신하겠다는 사명을 가지고 있으며, 이는 지속 가능한 에너지 투자처를 찾는 투자자들에게 큰 반향을 일으켰다. 세계가 저탄소 대안으로 나아가는 가운데, 나노의 미래 지향적인 원자력 에너지 접근 방식은 산업 부문에서 혁신의 매력적인 이야기로 자리 잡았다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">인튜이티브 머신스</h2>
2024년 인튜이티브 머신스는 노바-C 달 착륙선으로 역사적인 달 착륙을 달성하여 아폴로 17호 이후 처음으로 달에 착륙한 미국 우주선이 되었다.
이 성과와 장기적인 NASA 계약이 결합되어 주가가 442.80% 상승하게 되었다. 달 탐사 및 인프라를 지배하려는 야망을 가진 인튜이티브 머신스는 고위험 우주 경쟁에서 틈새시장을 개척하며 항공우주 혁신의 핵심 플레이어로 자리 잡고 있다.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">큰 테마, 더 큰 수익</h2>
러셀 2000 지수가 괜찮은 상승세를 보인 반면, 이 네 개의 주식은 소형주 시장에서의 가능성을 재정의하고 있다.
이들은 혁신적인 기술을 대표하며, 투자자들을 매료시키는 동시에 혁신 주도 성장의 잠재력을 강조하고 있다. 양자 도약, AI 혁명, 원자력 혁신 또는 달 착륙의 이정표와 같은 테마들이 미래를 형성하고 있으며, 투자자들은 이를 주목하고 있다.

벤징가는 지난주 <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">많은 투자자들이 선호하는 주식들</a>의 전망을 조사한 결과를 바탕으로, 다음과  같이 주요 뉴스 몇 가지를 요약했다.
다우 지수가 1.4% 상승하여 11월 상승률을 7.5%로 끌어올린 반면, S&amp;P 500과 나스닥 종합지수는 각각 1.1% 상승하여 월간 상승률이 각각 5%와 6%를 넘어서며 다우와 S&amp;P 500의 2024년 최고의 월간 실적을 기록했다.
짧은 거래 주간에, 대통령 당선자 도널드 트럼프가 멕시코와 캐나다에서의 수입품에 25% 관세를, 중국 상품에 10% 인상을 발표하여 시장을 흔들었다. 이는 마약 밀매와 불법 이민 문제를 해결하려는 목적이다.
멕시코 페소와 캐나다 달러는 다년래 최저치로 급락한 후, 투자자들이 잠재적 영향을 재평가하면서 안정세를 보였다. 무역 전쟁에 대한 우려에도 불구하고, 넓은 주식 시장은 여전히 강세를 보였으며, 소형주가 포함된 iShares Russell 2000 ETF는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/42250351/trumps-proposed-tariffs-target-mexico-canada-us-automakers-wall-street-shrugs-off-concerns-soars-to-record-highs-this-week-in-the-markets" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">역대 최고치</a>로 급등했다.
벤징가는 투자자들이 가장 선호하는 주식들에 대한 일일 보고서를 제공한다. 지난주 가장 긍정적(bullish)이고 부정적(bearish)인 포스트 몇 가지를 다시 살펴보겠다.

나노 뉴클리어 에너지(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NNE#NASDAQ">NNE</a>) 주식은 지난 주에 25% 이상 급등한 후 월요일(11일)에 하락했다. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41723998/nuclear-stocks-are-tumbling-monday-whats-going-on" target="_blank" rel="noopener">알아야 할 내용</a>은 다음과 같다.
알아야 할 내용: 원자력 주식은 최근 몇 달 동안 AI 붐과 관련된 데이터센터의 에너지 수요 증가에 발맞추기 위한 하이퍼스케일러의 원자력에 대한 관심 증가로 인해 상승세를 보였다.
지난주 초 미국 연방에너지규제위원회(FERC)가 그리드 신뢰성과 소비자 비용에 대한 잠재적 위험을 이유로 아마존 데이터센터의 전력 출력을 높이려는 탈렌 에너지의 제안을 거부한 이후 몇몇 원자력 주식이 하락하기 시작했다.
하지만 이러한 하락은 대부분의 원자력 관련 주식들, 특히 나노 뉴클리어의 경우에는 짧게 끝났다. 나노 뉴클리어는 미국 유일의 특허받은 레이저 기반 우라늄 농축 기술을 보유한 회사인 LIS 테크놀로지스에 전략적 200만 달러 투자를 발표한 후 주가가 급등했다.
이번 파트너십은 나노의 마이크로원자로에 국내 우라늄을 공급하여 나노의 휴대용 원자력 시스템의 연료 가용성을 보장하는 것을 목표로 한다.
나노 뉴클리어 에너지의 설립자이자 회장인 제이 유는 &#8220;LIS 테크놀로지스와 전략적 협력은 나노 뉴클리어에 또 하나의 중요한 이정표이며, 이를 통해 미국의 다른 첨단 원자로 회사보다 경쟁 우위를 확보할 수 있을 것으로 믿는다&#8221;고 했다.
또한 나노 뉴클리어는 노련한 투자 은행가 달린 드레머를 기관 금융 부문 경영자문위원회 위원장으로 임명했다고 발표했다. 기관 금융 분야에서 25년 이상 경력을 쌓은 드레머는 미국 에너지 안보를 강화하기 위한 휴대용 원자력 에너지 프로젝트의 자본 조달을 이끌 것으로 기대된다.
제이 유는 "혁신적이고 빠르게 성장하는 조직을 이끌었던 드레머의 전문성을 바탕으로 나노 원자력 발전소가 성장 전략을 속도감 있게 이어갈 수 있게 되어 기대가 크다&#8221;며 &#8220;그의 리더십과 경험은 우리 회사를 효율적으로 발전시키고 장기적인 성공을 위한 입지를 다지는 데 중요한 역할을 할 것&#8221;이라고 했다.
벤치마크의 애널리스트 마이클 레그는 목요일에 나노 뉴클리어에 대해 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">매수 의견</a>을 유지하고 목표주가를 39달러에서 66달러로 올렸다.
나노 뉴클리어 에너지 주가 움직임: <a href="//pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"" target="_blank" rel="noopener">벤징가 프로</a>에 따르면 나노 뉴클리어 에너지의 주가는 월요일 5.35% 하락한 21.60달러로 마감했다.

지난주 AWS는 소형 모듈 원자로(SMR) 개발을 포함한 원자력 에너지 프로젝트를 발전시키기 위한 세 가지 협약을 발표했다. 이 중 하나는 워싱턴의 에너지 노스웨스트(Energy Northwest)와의 파트너십으로, 초기 320MW 용량을 목표로 하며, 최대 960MW로 확장할 수 있다. AWS는 또한 버지니아의 도미니언 에너지(Dominion Energy)와 협력하여 노스 안나(North Anna) 원자력 발전소 근처에 SMR 배치를 탐색하여 해당 지역에서 최소 300MW의 전력을 생성하는 것을 목표로 하고 있다.
또한 아마존은 X-에너지에 투자하여 SMR 제조를 지원하고, 잠재적으로 5GW의 원자력 용량을 생성할 수 있도록 했다. AWS의 CEO인 맷 가먼(Matt Garman)은 원자력 에너지가 아마존의 기후 서약(2040년까지 탄소 배출 제로 달성)과 일치한다고 밝혔다.
이와 함께 구글도 카이로스 파워(Kairos Power)가 개발한 일련의 SMR에서 전력을 구매하기로 협약을 체결했다. 첫 번째 원자로는 2030년까지 가동될 예정이며, 추가 원자로는 2035년까지 계획되어 있다.
중요성 (Why It Matters): 아마존과 구글의 최근 투자는 인공지능(AI)으로 인한 데이터 센터의 전력 수요 증가에 대응하기 위해 탄소 없는 에너지원을 찾는 기술 기업들의 증가하는 추세를 강조한다. 이러한 발표는 원자력 에너지 분야에 대한 투자자들의 낙관적인 전망을 증가시키는 데 기여했다.

원자력 주식들이 급등 중: 오클로, 라이트브릿지 그리고 나노 뉴클리어 에너지

오클로(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKLO#NYSE">OKLO</a>)의 주식은 월요일 22% 이상 급등했다. 이는 아마존닷컴(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>)의 아마존 웹 서비스(AWS)가 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41358363/nuclear-stocks-soar-as-amazon-becomes-latest-tech-giant-to-invest-in-nuclear-power" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">지난주에 원자력 발전</a>에 5억 달러를 투자하겠다고 발표한 후, 원자력 관련 주식들이 계속해서 상승세를 보인 영향이다.
알아야 할 사항 (What To Know): AWS는 지난주에 에너지 노스웨스트(Energy Northwest)와의 협약을 포함하여, 워싱턴에 4개의 고급 소형 모듈형 원자로(SMR)를 건설하기로 했다. 또한 X-에너지와 협력하여 에너지 노스웨스트 계획에 X-에너지의 SMR 설계를 사용하기로 했으며, 도미니언 에너지(Dominion Energy)와의 협력을 통해 버지니아에서 SMR 프로젝트를 탐색하기로 했다.
빅 테크 기업들은 인공지능(<a href="http://benzinga.com/topic/ai" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AI</a>) 혁명으로 인한 에너지 수요 증가에 대응하기 위해 데이터 센터를 위한 신뢰할 수 있는 탄소 없는 에너지원으로 원자력에 눈을 돌리고 있다. 아마존의 투자에 이어, 알파벳(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>)의 구글도 최근 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41321236/sam-altmans-oklo-jumps-on-google-nuclear-deal-whats-going-on">카이로스 파워(Kairos Power)</a>가 개발한 SMR 함대에서 전력을 구매하는 계약을 발표한 바 있다.
하이퍼스케일 기업들은 AI의 증가하는 에너지 수요를 충족하기 위해 원자력에 대한 관심을 높이고 있으며, 이는 이 분야에서 더 많은 거래가 이루어질 가능성에 대한 기대감을 불러일으키고 있다.
참고: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/esg/24/10/41409688/this-small-cap-nuclear-stock-is-up-over-100-in-a-month-will-it-keep-generating-momentum">단기 상승 중인 이 소형 원자력 주식: 한 달 만에 100% 이상 상승, 모멘텀을 유지할 수 있을까?</a>
오클로는 고속 분열 원자력 발전소를 개발하는 회사로, 원자력 부문 전체의 상승세로부터 혜택을 보고 있다. 오클로의 주식은 구글이 카이로스와의 원자력 거래 발표 이후, 오픈AI의 샘 올트먼이 지원하는 오클로가 주요 테크 기업과 거래를 체결할 다음 주자가 될 수 있다는 추측이 돌면서 지난주에 급등했다.
오클로의 CEO인 제이콥 드위트(Jacob DeWitte)는 지난주 CNBC 인터뷰에서 AI 성장으로 인한 막대한 전력 수요를 강조했다. 그는 구글의 최근 원자력 거래가 이 산업에 대해 &#8220;빙산의 일각&#8221;에 불과하다고 말하며, 이러한 수요를 충족하는 데 있어 원자력의 역할을 강조했다.
그가 오클로가 오픈AI와 거래를 체결하거나 구글의 최근 거래와 유사한 거래를 발표할 가능성에 대해 질문을 받았을 때, 드위트는 &#8220;앞으로 더 많은 일이 있을 것&#8221;이라고 말했다.
지난주에 오클로와 함께 다수의 원자력 관련 주식들이 상승했으며, 월요일에도 계속 상승세를 보였다. 예를 들어, 누스케일 파워(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMR#NYSE">SMR</a>)는 월요일에 4.12% 상승 마감했으며, 나노 뉴클리어 에너지(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NNE#NASDAQ">NNE</a>)는 34.25% 상승 마감했다.
OKLO 주가 움직임: 오클로의 주식은 월요일에 22.41% 상승하여 22.31달러로 마감되었다. 이후 시간외 거래에서 2.51% 하락했다.

원자력 에너지 주식이 인기: 주목해야 할 종목들의 목록

최근의 전개 상황에 따르면 아마존닷컴(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>)은 늘어나는 수요를 촉진하기 위해 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39568237/tech-giants-eye-nuclear-power-to-fuel-ai-boom-raising-concerns-over-stability-and-environmental-" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">원자력 에너지에 대한 관심을 높이고 있을 수</a> 있다.
이 거대 기술 기업은 데이터 센터 엔지니어링 부서의 수석 원자력 엔지니어 <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/principal-nuclear-engineer-datacenter-engineering-power-generation-solutions-at-amazon-web-services-aws-4007936223" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">채용 공고</a>를 다시 게시하여 장기적인 에너지 전략에 대한 의문을 제기했다.
신흥 초소형 원자로 기술 회사인 나노 뉴클리어 에너지(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NNE#NASDAQ">NNE</a>)는 이전에 트위터였던 X의 소셜 미디어 <a href="https://x.com/nano_nuclear/status/1827024271731802146" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">게시물</a>에서 이 채용 공고를 언급했다.
왜 이것이 중요한가 (Why This Is Important): 아마존의 이 채용 공고는 탈렌 에너지(Talen Energy)가 올해 초 아마존 웹 서비스(AWS)에 960메가와트 데이터 센터 캠퍼스를 6억 5천만 달러에 판매하기로 합의한 직후 나온 것이다. 이 거래에는 서스퀘하나(Susquehanna) 원자력 발전소로부터의 10년간 전력 공급 계약이 포함되어 있다.
이는 특히 Amazon의 청정, 무탄소 에너지원에 대한 의지를 강조한다.
아만존의 한 대변인은 <a href="https://www.ans.org/news/article-5842/amazon-buys-nuclearpowered-data-center-from-talen/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">미국 원자력 학회</a>에 &#8220;기상 조건에 따라 에너지를 생성하는 풍력 및 태양광 프로젝트를 보완하기 위해 새로운 혁신 및 기술을 탐색하고 다른 청정, 무탄소 에너지원에 투자하고 있다. 탈렌 에너지와의 탄소 없는 에너지에 대한 이 계약은 그 노력의 일환이다&#8221;라고 말했다.

7월 10일에 발표된 한 <a href="https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/sustainability/amazon-renewable-energy-updates" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">보고서</a>에서, 아마존은 데이터 센터, 기업 사무실, 식료품점, 주문 처리 센터를 포함한 전 세계 운영 전반에 걸쳐 사용되는 전력의 100%를 재생 가능 에너지에서 조달한다는 목표를 달성했다고 발표했다. 이 목표는 원래 2030년으로 설정되었으며, 이 회사는 태양광 및 풍력 프로젝트에 대한 투자를 계속하면서 원자력 및 배터리 저장 솔루션을 탐색하여 에너지 수요를 유지할 계획이다.
원자력 에너지에 대한 관심이 논란이 될 수 있는 이유
아마존의 원자력 야망은 논란의 여지가 있다.
미국 원자력 학회의 <a href="https://www.ans.org/news/article-6180/aep-exelon-ask-ferc-to-scrutinize-amazontalen-data-center-deal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">보고서</a>에 따르면, 탈렌 에너지와의 협정 이후 유틸리티 회사들인 아메리칸 일렉트릭 파워 컴퍼니(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AEP#NASDAQ">AEP</a>)와 엑셀론 코퍼레이션(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXC#NASDAQ">EXC</a>)이 이 전기 공급 계약은 아마존이 전력망의 혜택을 누리면서 그 유지비용에 기여하지 않게 한다고 주장하며 연방 에너지 규제 위원회(FERC)에 공식적으로 이의를 제기했다.
그들은 데이터 센터의 전력 사용량이 그리드의 리소스와 간접적으로 연결되어 있기 때문에 이것이 다른 PJM 요금 납부자의 비용 증가로 이어질 수 있다고 주장합니다. PJM 요금 납부자는 펜실베이니아-뉴저지-메릴랜드 상호 연결(PJM)의 고객입니다.
그들은 이것이 다른 PJM 요금 납부자들의 비용 증가로 이어질 수 있다고 주장한다. 데이터 센터의 전력 사용은 간접적으로 전력망의 자원과 연결되어 있다. PJM 요금 납부자들은 펜실베이니아-뉴저지-메릴랜드 인터커넥션(PJM)의 고객들이다.
그뿐만이 아니다!
히트 맵(Heat Map)의 3월 <a href="https://heatmap.news/technology/amazon-nuclear-talen-energy">보고서</a>에 따르면, 아마존은 새로운 무탄소 에너지원을 우선시하지 않고 저비용 전력 확보에 초점을 맞추면서 에너지 전략과 관련하여 거대 기술 기업들 사이에 분열이 나타났다. 반면, 알파벳(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>)과 마이크로소프트(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>)는 종합적인 무탄소 에너지 솔루션을 목표로 하고 있다.
마이크로소프트와 구글은 안정적인 전력 공급을 보장하기 위해 원자력 발전에 대한 관심을 증가시켰으며, 이는 지속 가능한 에너지 관행에 대한 더 넓은 약속을 반영한다.
아마존이 원자력 프로젝트를 진행하면서 혁신과 규제 검토의 교차점은 에너지 전략을 형성하는 데 중요한 역할을 할 것이다.
이 회사가 원자력 엔지니어들을 채용하는 것은 이 분야에서의 진지한 의도를 강조하지만, 이러한 결정의 함의는 에너지 부문 내의 관계에 상당한 영향을 미칠 수 있다.
아마존의 원자력 발전 진출이 보다 지속 가능한 미래로 가는 길을 열 것인지, 아니면 이미 복잡한 에너지 환경에서의 입장을 복잡하게 만들 것인지 궁금하다.
<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>에 따르면 아마존의 주식은 지난 1년 동안 48% 이상 상승했다. 투자자들은 ProShares Online Retail ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ONLN#NYSE">ONLN</a>)와 Fidelity MSCI Consumer Discretionary Index ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDIS#NYSE">FDIS</a>)를 통해 주식에 노출될 수 있다.

헌터브룩의 주장: 탐사보도 전문 매체인 헤지펀드 헌터브룩(Hunterbrook)이 7월 19일 이 회사를 조롱하는 보도를 발표했다.
이 <a href="https://hntrbrk.com/nne/">보도</a>는 연구 단계에 있는 휴대용 원자로 회사인 나노 원자력(Nano Nuclear)이 &#8220;수익도 없고, 제품도 없고, &#8216;웃기는 일정'[과] 시간제 임원&#8221;이라고 비난했다. 헌터브룩의 기사는 원자로 개발이 나노 원자력(NNE)의 일정보다 훨씬 더 오래 걸릴 것이라고 말했다.
나노의 대응: 나노 원자력 에너지의 창립자이자 회장인 제이 유(Jay Yu)는 헌터브룩이 벤징가(Benzinga)에게 보낸 이메일에서 제기한 주장에 대해 답변했다.
"우리는 자신이 쓴 주식을 공매도하는 소위 &#8216;언론인들&#8217;의 관심을 받을 만큼 우리가 무엇을 했는지 확신할 수 없다. 분명 숨은 의도가 있기 때문에 누구도 진지하게 받아들일 수 없다"고 말했다. &#8220;우리는 나노(NANO)가 적절한 시기에 적절한 장소에 건설되어 지속 가능한 에너지 미래에 기여하고 있다는 사실을 자랑스럽게 생각한다.&#8221;
나노 에너지의 CEO인 제임스 워커(James Walker)는 나노의 일정이 비현실적이라는 헌터브룩의 주장에 반박했다.
&#8220;나노는 현재 나노의 초소형 원자로에 대한 허가 발급까지 제출부터 40개월의 일정을 추정하고 조언하는 미국 원자력 규제 위원회(NRC)의 지침을 따랐다&#8221;고 워커가 말했다. &#8220;이것은 최근 법으로 서명되어 규제 프로세스를 간소화하고 라이센스 기간을 단축하려는 어드밴스(ADVANCE) 법에서 비롯된 잠재적인 타이밍 효율성조차 고려하지 않고 있다.&#8221;
&#8220;나노는 수십 년의 경험을 가진 NRC 베테랑들과 협의하고 협력하고 있으며 개발 및 규제 기간에 대해 편안함을 느끼고 있다. 이는 물론 우리가 투자자들에게 매우 명확하게 밝힌 위험에 따라 달라질 수 있다&#8221;라고 워커거 덧붙였다.

워커는 이 보도에 언급된 전문가들-전 FEC 의장인 앨리슨 맥팔레인(Allison Macfarlane)과 서식스 대학의 객원 연구원인 폴 도프만(Paul Dorfman)-은 &#8220;반핵주의자로 알려져 있으며 핵 벤처에 대해 결코 좋은 말을 하지 않을 것&#8221;이라고 말했다.
워커는 계속해서 짧은 보도의 저자들이 핵에 대한 &#8220;교육이 부족하다&#8221;고 말했으며, 마이크로 원자로는 역사적으로 허가에 10~15년이 아니라 2~3년이 걸렸다고 말했다(헌터브룩은 15~20년이라는 훨씬 더 긴 일정을 보도했다).
이 보도는 또한 유가 이의를 제기한 논평에 나노가 응답하지 않았다고 주장했다.
"나노에는 여러 채널을 통해 헌터브룩에서 보낸 부재중 전화, 메시지 또는 이메일이 없다. 만약 그들이 연락했다면 우리는 이 모든 주제에 대해 교육했을 것이다. 그러나 그들은 분명히 숨은 동기를 가지고 있으며, 이는 잘 문서화되어 있다"고 유가 말했다.
유는 나노 시간제 임원들을 &#8216;땀흘린 자본&#8217;이라고 옹호하며 회사가 더 자본화되면 정규직으로 채용될 것이라고 말했다.
유는 또한 6월 누스케일 파워(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMR#NYSE">SMR</a>)에 대한 헌터브룩의 공매도 보도를 언급했다.
그는 "헌터브룩의 결과가 어떻게 되었는지 우리 모두 알 수 있다"라고 말했다. 누스케일의 주식은 헌터브룩의 보도 이후 거의 30% 더 높게 거래되고 있다.
주가 움직임: 나노 원자력은 지난 5월 IPO를 통해 시가총액이 6억 달러 이상으로 500% 이상 상승했다.
헌터브룩이 7월 19일 자사의 보도를 발표한 후 주가는 10% 이상 하락했다가, 그날 늦게 반등하여 개장 수준 근처에 마감했다.
나노 원자력 에너지의 주식은 화요일에 3.01% 하락한 15.49달러에 마감했다. 이번 주 첫 이틀 동안 거의 20% 하락했다. 비록 최고치인 37.51달러보다는 하락했지만 여전히 IPO 당시보다 3배 이상 높은 가격에 거래되고 있다.
