Slate Auto, backed by Jeff Bezos, will assemble its $25,000 EV truck — which drops to $20,000 after the federal EV credit — in Warsaw, Indiana.
What Happened: Slate Auto CEO Chris Barman confirmed the company's plans to assemble the truck in Indiana, Business Insider <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/slate-auto-electric-pickup-truck-indiana-factory-location-2025-4">reported</a> on Tuesday.
&#8220;We would like to see what we can do to go into an existing facility that has been shuttered and reindustrialize and revitalize that community," Barman said.
The facility, a former printing plant about 122 miles away from the city of Chicago, is expected to create over 2,000 jobs for the local community.
Why It Matters: News of the production facility comes in as Slate Auto recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/45006513/jeff-bezos-backed-tesla-rival-unveils-20000-modular-ev-pickup-truck-with-customization-at-the-forefront">unveiled its pickup truck</a>, which the company calls the "Blank Slate." What sets it apart is the customization options available to the customers.
The company provides over 25 different "Starter Packs" to choose from, and customers have the option of getting the truck in a 2-seater pickup trim or a 5-seater SUV trim.
The truck, which has been hailed by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45033046/bill-ackman-hails-jeff-bezos-backed-tesla-rival-slate-auto-says-it-will-be-a-big-success">experts like Bill Ackman</a>, offers a standard range of 150 miles, but with a larger battery pack, the range can stretch up to 240 miles. The truck has a 5-foot-long bed with a hauling capacity of 1400 lbs and can tow up to 1000 lbs.
Slate Auto's pickup truck could capitalize on the growing domestic EV market in the U.S., which saw a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44755934/us-q1-ev-sales-data-shows-106-yoy-growth-tesla-experiences-decline-but-still-dominates-domestic-ev-sales">10.6% YoY increase in sales</a> in the last quarter, according to the latest sales data.

Despite a more uncertain outlook, the Company has made no changes to its investment plans or capital return priorities. Capex in 2025 is projected to be within the range of $4.5-$5.0 billion, including $1.4-$1.5 billion on our strategic growth projects and $0.3-$0.4 billion on projects related to decarbonization. The outlook for free cash flow remains positive in 2025 and beyond; cash flow in 2025 is expected to be supported by working capital optimization; and the completion of the Company's strategic growth projects is expected to support structurally higher EBITDA and investable cash flow in the coming periods. Given this positive outlook, and in line with its defined capital return policy, the Company has initiated a new long-term share buyback program, with the first tranche of 10 million shares commencing on April 7, 2025.

Mark Zuckerberg says America's edge in artificial intelligence could erode unless it matches China's rapid build-out of data-center power and factory-scale hardware. 
What Happened: Speaking on the Dwarkesh Podcast, the billionaire founder warned that "the U.S. really needs to focus on streamlining the ability to build data centers and produce energy. Otherwise, we'll be at a significant disadvantage."
Zuckerberg's comments came during a comparison of Meta's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44661561/mark-zuckerbergs-meta-unveils-latest-llama-4-ai-models-to-challenge-openais-chatgpt-4-and-googles-gemini">newly announced</a> Llama 4 family with Huangzhou-based DeepSeek's R1.

China, he noted, compensates for U.S. curbs on high-end Nvidia processors by pouring engineers into low-level code tweaks. "DeepSeek basically had to spend a bunch of their calories doing infrastructure optimizations that the American labs didn't have to do," he said.
Those workarounds produced strong text performance, but at a cost, Zuckerberg argued: R1 remains text-only, while Llama 4 is multimodal, handling images and voice. "We're basically in the same ballpark on all the text stuff … but with a smaller model, so the cost-per-intelligence is lower," he said. "On the multimodal side we're effectively leading."
Why It Matters: Zuckerberg&#8217;s comments highlight how Washington's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/42897081/nvidia-and-ai-chip-stocks-brace-for-impact-as-biden-administration-considers-new-china-export-ban-report">chip export controls</a> are reshaping the AI race. While the rules slow Chinese access to cutting-edge silicon, they also spur aggressive investments in domestic power generation and cloud capacity — a drive Zuckerberg says U.S. regulators must match to keep pace.
Meanwhile, Bernstein analysts believe banning Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips won't stop China's artificial intelligence development, who suggest the export restrictions <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44971572/nvidia-chip-ban-wont-stop-chinas-ai-momentum-say-analysts-blocking-h20-would-hand-market-to-huawei-amid-trump-era-export-crackdown">could instead strengthen</a> the likes of Huawei Technologies.

According to Reuters, the chip matches Nvidia's H100 performance by integrating two 910B processors into a single package.

The Donald Trump administration is reportedly considering sweeping changes to Joe Biden-era restrictions on AI chip exports.
What Happened: Trump officials are weighing a significant overhaul of the Framework for Artificial Intelligence Diffusion, a rule issued in January by the U.S. Commerce Department under former President Joe Biden, reported Reuters on Tuesday, citing three sources familiar with the matter.
The rule currently splits the world into three tiers to determine how many advanced AI chips countries can access. Tier 1 nations, including 17 allies and Taiwan, have unlimited access. Tier 2 countries—about 120 in total—face caps, while Tier 3 nations like China, Russia and North Korea are completely blocked.
As per the report, the Trump administration is considering replacing this tiered structure with a global licensing regime, which would rely on individual government-to-government agreements to manage chip exports.&nbsp;

"There are some voices pushing for elimination of the tiers," said former Commerce Secretary under Trump, Wilbur Ross, on Tuesday. "I think it's still a work in progress."
Another change under discussion includes lowering the exemption threshold for chip orders. Currently, purchases under the equivalent of 1,700 Nvidia Corporation's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) H100 chips don't require a license—only notification.
The Trump team is reportedly considering cutting that threshold to 500.
Why It's Important: Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick previously signaled openness to using export controls in trade negotiations, aligning with Trump's broader foreign policy strategy of leveraging U.S. assets in bilateral deals.
Earlier this week, Zhao Chenxin, vice chairman of China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), said he is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45033463/as-china-downplays-trump-tariffs-with-5-growth-target-top-economist-warns-of-90-chance-of-a-us-recession-amid-trade-war">"fully confident" that they will achieve</a> their 5% growth target for 2025, despite increasing economic headwinds and analyst warnings of a potential slowdown.
Meanwhile, Torsten Slok, chief economist at Apollo Global Management, an American asset management fund, has estimated a "90% chance" of recession if current tariff levels persist—echoing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/45090231/elon-musk-says-will-come-as-a-surprise-to-most-as-chinas-economy-surpasses-us-and-eu-amid-rising-tariffs-and-growing-recession-fears">growing concerns among global</a> financial experts.

Trump Administration Targets Biden-Era AI Chip Curbs, Could Scrap Country Tiers And Tighten Access To Nvidia's H100 Chips: Report

Economist Peter Schiff criticized President Donald Trump on Tuesday for reportedly pressuring Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) founder Jeff Bezos to abandon plans that would show consumers the cost of tariffs on product prices.
What Happened: &#8220;Apparently, Trump called Bezos personally to &#8216;convince&#8217; him not to honestly inform consumers about the taxes they&#8217;re paying when they buy goods on Amazon,&#8221; Schiff wrote on X. &#8220;I don&#8217;t like this at all. This is the type of stuff you might expect to see in China, our supposed enemy in the trade war.&#8221;
Schiff defended Amazon&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/45086459/amazon-pressures-suppliers-for-discounts-may-show-tariff-related-costs-on-haul-site">reported consideration to display tariff costs</a>, arguing that &#8220;consumers have a right to know how much tax they are paying&#8221; and questioning the White House&#8217;s characterization of such transparency as a &#8220;hostile and political act.&#8221;

The controversy emerged after reports that Amazon might <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/45086459/amazon-pressures-suppliers-for-discounts-may-show-tariff-related-costs-on-haul-site">display tariff costs next to product prices</a>. While Amazon denied plans for its main site, the company acknowledged considering the idea for its Haul website, which sells items under $20.

Why It Matters: Trump, who has imposed tariffs of up to 145% on Chinese imports and a 10% minimum tax on goods from other countries, confirmed the call with Bezos, telling reporters, &#8220;Jeff Bezos was very nice. He was terrific. He solved the problem very quickly.&#8221;
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt condemned Amazon&#8217;s potential move as a &#8220;hostile and political act.&#8221;
The disagreement unfolds as Amazon navigates challenges from Trump&#8217;s tariff policies, which analysts at Goldman Sachs expect could affect 6%-12% of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/45086459/amazon-pressures-suppliers-for-discounts-may-show-tariff-related-costs-on-haul-site">e-commerce giant&#8217;s operating margins in 2025.</a>
Price Action: Amazon stock closed at $187.39 on Tuesday, down 0.17% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock slipped further to $186.41, a decline of 0.52%. Year to date, Amazon shares have dropped 14.91%, or $32.83, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
Despite demonstrating strong momentum and ranking well on growth metrics, the e-commerce giant faces a negative price trend in the short to long term, according to Benzinga Edge&#8217;s Stock Ranking. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Sign up to learn more.</a>

Cryptocurrency bettors saw high chances of a military conflict between Asian neighbors India and Pakistan as tensions rose sharply following a deadly attack on civilians on the Indian side of Kashmir.
What happened: Odds that India initiates military action against Pakistan before June <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/india-military-action-against-pakistan-before-june">jumped </a>past 80% on the decentralized prediction market, Polymarket, on Tuesday. Nearly $350,000 has been wagered on the outcome&nbsp;
This market will resolve to &#8220;Yes&#8221; if India launches a military operation on Pakistani soil, airspace, or maritime territory, or any Pakistani embassies or consulates before June 1. Small fire exchanges along the disputed border won't qualify as military action.
Note that the Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">POL</a>)-based betting platform can't be accessed by U.S. residents due to regulatory restrictions.
The platform has faced criticism in the past for launching betting events that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41110897/ethereum-creator-vitalik-buterin-bats-for-polymarkets-model-amid-concerns-over-betting-on-">aim to profit from conflicts and wars</a>.

Why It Matters: The jump in odds comes after Pakistan's Defense Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif said India's attack was "imminent" during an interview with Reuters.&nbsp;
Moreover, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi gave the Indian military complete freedom to decide on the mode, targets, and timing of their attack, <a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/decide-on-targets-mode-timing-pm-modi-gives-complete-freedom-to-forces-to-avenge-pahalgam/articleshow/120734353.cms">according </a>to The Times of India.
Tensions have risen between South Asia&#8217;s two nuclear-armed countries after gunmen killed at least 26 tourists and injured several others in Jammu and Kashmir last week. India accuses Pakistan of supporting the attackers, while the latter has denied any participation.

Nuclear-Armed India, Pakistan Heading For Conflict Again? Polymarket Bettors Think Yes Amid Pak Minister's 'Imminent' Attack Remark

Coffeehouse chain, Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>), is making a case for its resilience amid the slowdown, rising recession risks, and global trade uncertainty. 
What Happened: During Tuesday's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45084597/starbucks-misses-q2-earnings-estimates-ceo-says-optimism-has-turned-into-confidence-i-see-more-opportunity-than-i-imagined">second-quarter earnings</a> call, CEO Brian Niccol addressed concerns about the company&#8217;s past underperformance during downturns, calling Starbucks a &#8220;simple, everyday luxury&#8221; that consumers will continue to enjoy regardless of the economic challenges surrounding them.
Niccol acknowledged that economic downturns will affect the business, but emphasized a proactive approach. &#8220;The best way to go after these things is with your best offense,&#8221; he said, adding that for Starbucks, that means becoming &#8220;a great third place,&#8221; which is a welcoming space beyond home and work.

Niccol pointed to Starbucks' &#8220;innovation pipeline&#8221; as a key differentiator, saying that it will &#8220;cut through in any environment.&#8221; As part of that effort, the company has launched an aperitivo menu for the afternoon and rolled out several new products aligned with evolving consumer preferences during the quarter.
Starbucks reported its fifth consecutive quarterly decline in same-store sales on Tuesday, with U.S. sales down 2% and global sales falling 1%. In response, the company is undergoing a broader transformation under an initiative dubbed "Back to Starbucks," aimed at reviving its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42609868/starbucks-workers-plan-strike-in-la-chicago-seattle-on-christmas-eve-amid-holiday-rush">core coffeehouse culture</a>.
Why It Matters: Analysts, however, are skeptical of the company&#8217;s resilience in the face of macro headwinds, with Guggenheim analyst Gregory Francfort stating on Tuesday, that being <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/45087119/analyst-warns-starbucks-faces-growing-risks-from-competition-costs-and-global-tensions">a discretionary purchase</a>, Starbucks can come under pressure if consumer conditions deteriorate.

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEF#NYSE">JEF</a>) believe that the <a href="https://benzinga.com/general/restaurants/25/04/45052970/starbucks-q2-earnings-preview-will-results-show-turnaround-progress">company&#8217;s turnaround</a> and recovery will take some time.
The stock came <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44634719/restaurant-stocks-are-getting-cooked-thursday-as-trump-tariffs-rattle-markets">under renewed pressure</a> at the beginning of this month, following President Donald Trump&#8217;s tariffs, given the company&#8217;s outsized exposure to China, with over 7,600 locations in the country.
Price Action: The stock was up 1.13% on Tuesday, but is down 6.51% after-hours, following the company&#8217;s second quarter earnings results on Tuesday evening.

Alphabet Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) subsidiary Google-backed Waymo and Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) have announced a preliminary agreement on Tuesday to explore collaboration on autonomous driving technologies, with a focus on personally owned vehicles, the companies said in a joint release.
What Happened: The strategic partnership aims to combine Waymo&#8217;s autonomous driving expertise with Toyota&#8217;s vehicle manufacturing capabilities to develop a new autonomous vehicle platform. Woven by Toyota will join as a strategic enabler, contributing advanced software and mobility innovation to the project.
&#8220;Toyota is committed to realizing a society with zero traffic accidents and becoming a mobility company that delivers mobility for all,&#8221; said Hiroki Nakajima, Executive Vice President of Toyota Motor Corporation. &#8220;We share a strong sense of purpose and a common vision with Waymo in advancing safety through automated driving technology.&#8221;
Waymo, which currently provides <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45001569/waymo-announces-250000-weekly-paid-rides-across-four-us-cities-sundar-pichai-says-personal-ownership-an-option-in-the-future">more than 250,000 fully autonomous paid rides weekly</a> across San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoenix, and Austin, will bring its substantial operational experience to the partnership. Data shows Waymo vehicles are involved in 81% fewer injury-causing crashes compared to human drivers.
&#8220;Waymo&#8217;s mission is to be the world&#8217;s most trusted driver,&#8221; said Tekedra Mawakana, co-CEO at Waymo. &#8220;This requires global partners like Toyota that share our commitment to improving road safety and expanding accessible transportation.&#8221;

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is preparing to launch its robotaxi service in Austin this June with 10-20 vehicles, though <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44979720/teslas-robotaxi-launch-in-june-will-likely-be-a-non-event-says-gary-black-this-isnt-really-a-test-market-its-an-experiment">some investors remain skeptical</a> about the limited scope of its initial deployment.
Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai recently highlighted autonomous vehicle personal ownership as &#8220;an option&#8221; in Waymo&#8217;s future during the company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45001569/waymo-announces-250000-weekly-paid-rides-across-four-us-cities-sundar-pichai-says-personal-ownership-an-option-in-the-future">first-quarter of 2025 earnings call</a>, aligning with this new Toyota partnership&#8217;s focus on personally owned vehicles.
The partnership will focus on incorporating aspects of Waymo&#8217;s technology into Toyota&#8217;s vehicles while continuing to develop Toyota&#8217;s proprietary Toyota Safety Sense suite of advanced safety features. Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
