Allianz Chief Economic Advisor Mohamed El-Erian highlighted a significant shift in Goldman Sachs&#8216; outlook for the U.S. economy, noting that the investment bank has given its economic projections a &#8220;stagflationary twist.&#8221;
What Happened: El-Erian noted on X that Goldman Sachs economists have added a &#8220;stagflationary twist&#8221; to their U.S. economic outlook. 
He highlighted that the firm raised its 2025 personal consumption expenditures inflation forecast— the Federal Reserve's preferred gauge— by 0.5 percentage points to 3.5%, while projecting gross domestic product growth to slow to 1.0% on a quarter-over-quarter basis.
Goldman Sachs has increased its U.S. recession probability from 20% to 35%, El-Erian notes, an increase of 75%.
This revised outlook comes amid broader economic concerns. S&amp;P 500, tracked by The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and the U.S. Dollar Index, has declined simultaneously, a pattern not seen since the 2008 financial crisis, signaling <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44469320/sp-500-dollar-index-decline-together-for-1st-time-since-2008-financial-crisis">potential economic instability</a>.

The major indices are poised to end March with sharp declines, with SPY down 6.27%, SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIA#NYSE">DIA</a>) dropping 5.15%, and Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) tumbling 8.09%.

However, Wilding added they expect any recession would be &#8220;light&#8221; and the economy would &#8220;come out of it relatively quickly.&#8221;
El-Erian noted that this week will be packed with key economic reports, including the monthly employment data, the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, the Institute for Supply Management&#8217;s business activity index, and retail sales figures. 
Additionally, markets will be watching the Apr. 2 tariff announcement and remarks from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and other officials.

Goldman Sachs Raises US Recession Risk To 35%, Expects Inflation At 3.5% In 2025 Amid Tariff Uncertainties: Economist Mohamed El-Erian Highlights 'Stagflationary Twist'

Renowned trader Peter Brandt predicted a potential 50% drop in the value of XRP (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/xrp/usd">XRP</a>) on Saturday, marking a significant shift from his previous bullish predictions.
What Happened: Brandt, a seasoned chartist with nearly 50 years of experience, compared the cryptocurrency to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/01/36690214/coinbase-tells-judge-that-buying-crypto-is-like-collecting-beanie-babies-sec-says-its-an-i">&#8220;Beanie Baby&#8221; </a>and a &#8220;Pet Rock,&#8221; suggesting that it had little worth and that its market was based on speculation.
Pet Rocks and Beanie Babies were a set of convertible toys that emerged as a major fad during the late 70s and the 90s, respectively. Much of their value was derived out of hype.
Brandt drew attention to the formation of a &#8220;classic complex&#8221; head and shoulders pattern&nbsp;for XRP. Typically, the formation predicts a bullish-to-bearish trend reversal, &nbsp;characterized by three peaks forming a &#8220;head&#8221; and two &#8220;shoulders.&#8221;
&#8220;This could become bullish if 3.0 is exceeded, otherwise the implications is a decline to 1.07,&#8221; the seasoned trader warned. Should the bearish prediction prove correct, it would mean a nearly 50% drawdown from the current price.
Brandt also urged skeptics who might have a problem with his prognosis to read John Magee and Robert D. Edwards&#8217; widely popular book on technical analysis.

Why It Matters: Brandt&#8217;s bearish prediction marked a significant shift from his previous bullish takes on XRP. In December 2024, he had&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42407693/legendary-traders-bullish-pivot-peter-brandt-calls-xrps-chart-as-the-most-powerful-after-a-slew-of-bearish-takes">deemed XRP&#8217;s price chart as the &#8220;most powerful&#8221;</a>&nbsp;after a breakout from a symmetrical triangle pattern.

Overall, Brandt has been a longtime XRP critic, and his views have routinely drawn the ire of XRP enthusiasts. 
Meanwhile, whales continued to dump the third-largest cryptocurrency. According to an X post by influential cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez, over a billion XRP&#8217;s were offloaded in the previous 48 hours.

Peter Brandt Now Foresees A 50% XRP Crash After Earlier Bullish Predictions:  'Your Favorite Beanie Baby/Pet Rock....'

As industry giants like Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and OpenAI throw their weight behind a rising AI protocol, Alphabet Inc.'s (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>) CEO has offered a cryptic but telling response.
What Happened: Over the past week, momentum has surged around the Model Context Protocol, an open standard designed to help AI agents interact seamlessly with real-world tools, interfaces, and data sources.
On March 26, the developers behind MCP released an updated version of the protocol, introducing major upgrades in security, real-time communication, and interoperability.

The news quickly gained traction after ChatGPT-parent OpenAI announced it would support MCP across its platform.&nbsp;
&#8220;People love MCP, and we are excited to add support across our products,&#8221; said OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, adding, &#8220;Available today in the agents SDK and support for chatgpt desktop app + responses api coming soon!&#8221;

Earlier, Microsoft also confirmed its support, launching Playwright-MCP — a tool that wraps Microsoft's browser automation technology in the MCP format. This move allows AI agents like Anthropic's Claude to interact with the web using real browser actions like clicking, typing, and navigation, all powered by the Chrome accessibility tree.
On Sunday, Google CEO Sundar Pichai's subtle response further instigated curiosity across the developer community.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, Pichai said, "To MCP or not to MCP, that's the question. [Let me know] in comments." The Shakespeare-inspired post offered no confirmation but hinted that Google is closely watching the space.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Why It Matters: MCP, originally developed by Anthropic and supported by projects like LangChain, aims to create a common "language" that enables agents to reason about and use external tools efficiently.
Before OpenAI and Microsoft's endorsement, it was unclear whether the protocol would gain traction beyond niche developer circles. Now, with two of the largest players in generative AI aligning behind MCP, the ecosystem is beginning to coalesce around a shared standard — potentially reducing fragmentation and accelerating innovation.
The inclusion of OAuth 2.1, streamable HTTP transport, and JSON-RPC batching makes MCP 0.2 a robust, developer-friendly update, designed for real-world applications, <a href="https://venturebeat.com/ai/the-open-source-model-context-protocol-was-just-updated-heres-why-its-a-big-deal/">according</a> to Venture Beat.
Tool annotations and modular architecture give teams the flexibility to adopt what they need without being locked into a monolithic stack.

An investor with an over-leveraged long bet on frog-themed cryptocurrency Pepe (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">PEPE</a>) is now sitting on unrealized losses worth millions of dollars.
What Happened:&nbsp;According to an X post by on-chain tracker&nbsp;Lookonchain&nbsp;on Monday, a whale address opened a 10x leveraged&nbsp;long position on PEPE on&nbsp;the decentralized perpetual trading platform Hyperliquid a week ago.
The entry price was $0.008 per 1,000 PEPE, with the current position size worth $24.32 million. The trader was already down nearly $3.4 million, and the entire position would be liquidated if PEPE tumbled to $0.00497.
In an attempt to avoid liquidation, the whale added 3.818 million&nbsp;USD Coin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">USDC</a>) in margin.

Why It Matters:&nbsp; The third-largest meme coin by market capitalization hit monthly highs last week but has since plunged over 23%.
The coin&#8217;s Long/Short ratio stood at 1 as of this writing, <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/currencies/PEPE">according</a> to Coinglass, indicating that a higher percentage of futures traders were betting on its decline.
Additionally, more than 62% of PEPE holders were under losses at the prevailing price, <a href="https://app.intotheblock.com/">according </a>to IntoTheBlock. The daily active addresses also fell by more than 17% in the last 24 hours.
Price Action: At the time of writing, PEPE was exchanging hands at $0.000007027, down 2.93% in the last 24 hours, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
Benzinga Note: Leverage trading allows cryptocurrency traders to open larger positions using borrowed capital. While it can potentially amplify profits, it also significantly increases the risk of substantial losses due to the volatile nature of the cryptocurrencies.

Wall Street On Edge: Futures Slide Ahead of Trump's 'Liberation Day' Tariff Shock

Many dream of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/41781968/suze-orman-says-if-youre-rich-like-her-then-you-can-retire-early-but-if-you-only-have-2-million-">retiring early</a>, but making it a reality requires careful planning, especially when you want to rely on investment income.
For those who aim to leave the workforce ahead of schedule, a dividend-oriented portfolio is a great strategy as it provides a steady cash flow.

One Reddit user, an investor with a $640,000 portfolio, is encountering this issue as he plans to retire in five years or less. Heavily invested in Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHD#NYSE">SCHD</a>) with smaller positions in Amplify CWP Enhanced Dividend Income ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIVO#NYSE">DIVO</a>), Amplify CWP International Enhanced Dividend Income ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IDVO#NYSE">IDVO</a>), and Amplify CWP Growth &amp; Income ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QDVO#NYSE">QDVO</a>), the poster&#8217;s portfolio generates $27,162 in annual dividend income.
His goal is to build a portfolio that provides inflation-beating dividend growth, but he&#8217;s wondering whether he diversified enough, whether he should introduce bonds when nearing retirement, and whether the current allocation can generate $75,000 per year.
&#8220;I try to live modestly. I live in a small house. No mortgage. No debt. <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/dividends/comments/1ji8lcd/comment/mjeufff/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=web3x&amp;utm_name=web3xcss&amp;utm_term=1&amp;utm_content=share_button">My current nominal expenses are about $45,000 per year.</a> I'm thinking about diversifying into [Schwab International Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/schy#NYSE">SCHY</a>)] to get a little more international exposure,&#8221; he wrote.
Trending: Many are using retirement income calculators to check if they&#8217;re on pace —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-do-i-calculate-my-retirement-income-adv"> here&#8217;s a breakdown on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</a>
The Reddit community weighed in, offering advice and insights, so let&#8217;s analyze the suggestions below.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can The Current $640,000 Portfolio Generate $75,000 Per Year in Dividends? Reddit Debates</h2>
Increase Yield with Higher-Paying ETFs And Stocks
Several users suggested adding higher-yielding assets to boost income, mainly since the investor&#8217;s 4.24% yield may not cover his $75,000 target.
&#8220;Try getting more yield exposure. [Broadcom (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/avgo#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>)], [Nike (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nke#NYSE">NKE</a>)], [Visa (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/v#NYSE">V</a>)], [The Home Depot (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hd#NYSE">HD</a>)]–all have high 5-year [compound annual growth rate]. Yield: [MPLX LP (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mplx#NYSE">MPLX</a>)], [JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jepq#NASDAQ">JEPQ</a>)], [Guggenheim Strategic Opportunities Fund (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gof#NYSE">GOF</a>)], [Ares Capital Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/arcc#NASDAQ">ARCC</a>)​], [VICI Properties (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/vici#NYSE">VICI</a>)], [PIMCO Dynamic Income Fund (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pdi#NYSE">PDI</a>)],&#8221; a suggestion reads.
A Redditor advised the investor to allocate two parts of the portfolio to a covered call ETF and a high-yield fund since they pay well and the gains are great.
&#8220;Add JEPQ and [Goldman Sachs S&amp;P 500 Core Premium Income ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gpix#NASDAQ">GPIX</a>)]. You will have good gains from those and they pay a lot.&#8221;
A commenter suggested Ares Dynamic Credit Allocation Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARDC#NYSE">ARDC</a>), a business development company because it offers nearly double the yield of SCHD.
&#8220;ARDC is a monthly payer, now at a good entry point at $14.14-ish with a 9.9% dividend, currently paying $0.1125/share monthly. Just went x-dividend. I hold 5,000 shares of ARCC (for several years) and 5,000 shares of ARDC (a more recent position),&#8221; he said.

Focus on Dividend Growth and Compounding
Many Redditors suggested that dividend growth stocks and ETFs are ideal for long-term retirement income, with many sharing what they do to ensure compounding growth for their portfolios.
&#8220;A well-diversified dividend portfolio with a disciplined reinvestment rate should be easily able to weather most storms. And you become a net buyer of shares every year, not a seller. That $640,000 could easily and safely do 8.5% gross and provide a 25% reinvestment rate and still net $40,000/year. I&#8217;m living it,&#8221; a Reddit user said.
&#8220;Nice and consistent portfolio. SCHD, DIVO, and IDVO are very consistent in growth and dividends. Don't know much about QDVO, but I am sure if it's similar to DIVO it's a good pick. I like your portfolio!&#8221; another commenter wrote.
A retiree shared that his income from dividend-focused shares continued to pour even during market corrections and that he&#8217;s reinvesting part of his distributions, growing his wealth year after year.
&#8220;My dividend income didn&#8217;t miss a beat during corrections in 2022, etc. Since I retired 15 years ago, I never sold shares except to rebalance. I reinvest part of my distributions during dips, like now, resulting in my portfolio being over twice what it was when I retired,&#8221; he said.

Investor With $640K Portfolio Aims For Early Retirement – 'Hoping To Retire In 5 Years Or Less' But Faces Tough Choices – Reddit Weights In

Pierre Ferragu, an analyst at New Street Research, long-time Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) advocate, and Grok investor, believes that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44549314/elon-musk-acquires-his-own-social-media-platform-x-through-xai-in-33-billion-deal-says-combined-entity-now-worth-80-billion">$113 billion market cap</a> of Elon Musk's latest merger will soon seem modest.
What Happened: Ferragu reacted positively to the news that Musk is merging xAI with his social media platform X in a deal valuing the combined entity at $113 billion.
"Oh yes. The global town square is taking a massive step up," Ferragu said X, adding that the $113 billion valuation "will look tiny in a few years," highlighting his bullish outlook on the growth potential of the merged companies.&nbsp;
"So much potential," he said, while also noting, "I am biased, do your own research."

Musk said the merger will unify "data, models, compute, distribution and talent" under a new holding company, xAI Holdings Corp. The move values xAI at $80 billion and X at $33 billion.
Musk has a history of merging his own companies. In 2016, he leveraged Tesla stock to acquire SolarCity, his solar energy venture.
His other privately held enterprises include SpaceX, which focuses on rocket technology; Neuralink, a company developing brain-implant chips; and The Boring Company, specializing in tunnel construction.

What Happened: Bitcoin tumbled below $82,000 during the weekend, a sharp U-turn after hitting nearly $90,000 earlier in the week.
Ethereum also dipped below $1,800 after breaching $2,000 early in the week, marking a 9% decline.
The apex cryptocurrency was down 12.21% in the first quarter, on track to record its worst since 2018. Similarly, Ethereum sank over 45% this quarter. The last time it experienced such struggles was in 2018, when it fell by 46%.
Interestingly, Bitcoin's dominance reached a 4-year high of 61.2%, indicating increased rotation out of altcoins toward the leading digital asset.
Bitcoin's Open Interest dropped by 2.85% in the last 24 hours, suggesting weak speculative demand. The percentage of traders positioned short on BTC rose sharply vis-à-vis those betting on its price increase, according to the Long/Short Ratio.
"Fear" sentiment dominated the market, according to the Crypto Fear and Greed Index.

The overhang has triggered a sharp decline in stocks this month, with the S&amp;P 500 and Dow losing 6.27% and 5.15%, respectively.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 155.09 points, or 0.37%, to close at 42,299.70. The S&amp;P 500 slid 0.33%, ending at 5,693.31, while the tech-focused Nasdaq Composite dipped 0.53% to close at 17,804.03.

Analyst Notes: Popular blockchain analytics firm CryptoQuant stated that seasonal market participants who were previously selling Bitcoin during local peaks have now shifted to accumulation and HODLing.
"The transition of experienced players into a holding (accumulation) phase signals the potential for further BTC growth in the medium term," CryptoQuant added.

Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader Rekt Capital noticed that Bitcoin filled the CME gap area from $82,000 to $85,000 and was on track to form a new CME gap between $82,700 and $84,000.
"That CME gap will likely form between $82,700 and $84,000, which could set BTC up for a move into at least $84,000 next week," the analyst predicted.
CME gaps are the differences in price between the closing price on a given trading day and the opening price on the following trading day on a Bitcoin futures chart. They often act as strong support or resistance levels.

Boeing Lands 50-Jet Deal With BOC Aviation As Part Of 120-Aircraft Order

On Sunday, President Donald Trump hinted at a possible third-term run, raising questions about constitutional limits.
What Happened: Trump did not rule out the possibility of a third term in office, despite the 22nd Amendment of the Constitution prohibiting such an action. 
&#8220;A lot of people want me to do it,&#8221; said Trump. The president, however, said that it was &#8220;very early&#8221; and he had a &#8220;long way to go.&#8221; He disclosed that he was focused on his current term for now, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-third-term-white-house-methods-rcna198752">reported</a> NBC News.
When Trump was pressed, whether he would like another term, he made it clear that he was &#8220;not joking.&#8221;
When questioned about a potential scenario where Vice President JD Vance could assume the presidency and then transfer the role to Trump, the President acknowledged it as a possible method. However, he refrained from discussing any other methods.
&#8220;There are methods which you could do it,&#8221; said Trump, without providing further details, according to the report.
Amending the Constitution to remove&nbsp;the two-term limit would be&nbsp;a complex process, necessitating a two-thirds vote from&nbsp;Congress or two-thirds of the&nbsp;states agreeing to call a&nbsp;constitutional convention for proposing changes. Subsequently,&nbsp;ratification from three-quarters of the&nbsp;states would be required.
Despite these constitutional challenges, Trump referred to his poll numbers, implying that &#8220;a lot of people would like me to&#8221; serve a third term. Steve Bannon, a Trump ally, also voiced his belief that Trump could &#8220;run and win again in 2028.&#8221;

Why It Matters: This isn&#8217;t the first time Trump has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38909755/donald-trump-for-third-term-ex-president-floats-controversial-idea-at-nra-convention">entertained the idea</a> of a third term. He sparked speculation about a potential third term during his address at the National Rifle Association&#8217;s annual meeting in May 2024.
However, critics have questioned Trump&#8217;s capacity to lead, with former National Security Advisor John Bolton <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/38014733/ex-trump-advisor-john-bolton-plays-down-former-presidents-capacity-to-become-a-dictator-in-scathing">expressing skepticism</a> about Trump&#8217;s potential to become a dictator.

Trump Makes It Clear He's Not Joking About A Third Term: 'A Lot Of People Want Me To Do It'

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41285154/mark-cuban-says-if-youre-starting-a-business-and-you-take-out-a-loan-youre-a-moron-99-of-small-b">Starting a business</a> can be a rewarding endeavor, but when the numbers don't add up, tough decisions may be necessary. On a recent <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxv-TKqiqC8">episode</a> of "EntreLeadership," Dave Ramsey spoke with Jen, a business owner from Ontario, Canada, who found herself in a difficult financial position despite running a business with significant sales. Ramsey&#8217;s advice was clear: "Being $450,000 in debt to make zero money is a bad idea."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Business Bringing In Sales — But No Profit</h2>
Jen shared that she had left a successful 20-year career to focus on her side hustle, which had grown into a full-time business. After moving the business from her basement to a physical location, sales reached approximately $870,000 last year. However, despite the strong sales figures, Jen wasn't paying herself — and her business was still <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43970634/to-be-unemployed-in-america-today-is-crazy-dave-ramsey-says-theres-always-a-way-to-make-more-money">struggling financially</a>.

</ul>
"I have an opportunity to go back to work in my previous field," Jen said. "Make 100 grand again and get back to earning for my family instead of now having what feels like my business just drain me."
Jen explained that her business expenses, including payroll and overhead, were about $20,000 a month. On top of that, the business had accumulated around $450,000 in debt, including a mortgage on the building, renovation costs, and startup inventory expenses.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Business Model Challenges</h2>
Ramsey pressed Jen on whether the business would be profitable without the mortgage. Jen admitted that the mortgage itself wasn't necessarily the problem — the issue was that sales were declining.

She attributed the decline to shifting customer behavior. During the pandemic, the business had successfully generated revenue through online courses. But as people returned to in-person events, the business was struggling to scale the same level of revenue with smaller class sizes.
Ramsey pointed out that while owning the building might seem like an investment, the business itself needed to generate enough revenue to cover expenses and provide a profit.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ramsey&#8217;s Advice: Make a Change or Shut It Down</h2>
Ramsey's advice was straightforward: If the business model can't be adjusted to turn a profit, it's time to walk away.
"If you can figure out a business model that gives you hope — a business model shift, a pricing shift, a delivery of product shift, whatever it is, the way you&#8217;re doing the classroom thing — to where you actually are making a profit and you are paying yourself and you can see your way to that," he said. He said if Jen can't do something to turn her profit around, it's time to close the business.&nbsp;

Jen asked Ramsey what he thought about keeping the business open to pay her employees, even if she couldn't pay herself.&nbsp;
"It's not your job to just create jobs," Ramsey said. "It&#8217;s wonderful that you create jobs. And that&#8217;s a cool thing. But you&#8217;re supposed to be making money owning a business. That's the point."
Ramsey suggested that Jen take 30 to 45 days to brainstorm solutions, such as adjusting pricing or scaling the business model. If those changes don't work, Ramsey recommended closing the business, selling the building, and returning to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43679558/how-this-39-year-old-with-no-college-degree-built-passive-income-streams-that-pay-18-000-per-month">steady income stream</a> through her previous career.

'Being $450,000 In Debt To Make Zero Money Is A Bad Idea' - Dave Ramsey's Advice To Business Owner With No Profit

President Donald Trump has expressed fury over recent remarks by Russian President Vladimir Putin suggesting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy should be replaced. 
What Happened: In a weekend interview, Trump said he was "very angry" and warned of economic retaliation if Russia fails to cooperate on halting the Ukraine war.
Putin proposed a transitional government for Ukraine, which would effectively push out Zelenskyy. Trump, in response, threatened to impose sweeping &#8220;secondary tariffs&#8221; on any country purchasing Russian oil, including a 25% to 50% tariff on Russian crude and related products.
Trump made Ukraine a centerpiece of his foreign policy agenda and has pushed for an end to the war. His team helped broker a partial ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, allowing safe passage in the Black Sea and a halt on attacks targeting energy infrastructure. But tensions with Moscow remain high.

"If Russia and I are unable to make a deal on stopping the bloodshed in Ukraine, and if I think it was Russia's fault — which it might not be — but if I think it was Russia's fault, I am going to put secondary tariffs on oil, on all oil coming out of Russia," Trump <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-angry-putin-zelenskyy-iran-sanctions-rcna198729">told </a>to NBC News.
Despite previous criticism of Zelenskyy, Trump signaled he would act against Putin if diplomacy fails. He also said he plans to speak with Putin again this week. "The anger dissipates quickly… if he does the right thing," Trump said, describing their relationship as "very good."
Trump said he also "was pissed off" about Putin's comments about temporary governance and that his anger about Putin's comments had been made known to Moscow.
Trump's tariff threats echo a similar strategy he applied to Venezuela, where countries importing oil from Caracas risked U.S. trade penalties. The same could apply to top buyers of Russian oil such as China, India, Turkey, and Brazil.

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is moving ahead with its most ambitious health initiative to date, aiming to elevate its Health app with AI capabilities that mimic real doctors. 
Bloomberg&#8217;s Mark Gurman, in his <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2025-03-30/apple-readies-biggest-push-into-health-yet-with-revamped-app-ai-doctor-service-m8vl97k2?srnd=undefined&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">latest </a>weekly &#8220;Power On&#8221;, has said that the tech giant is also gearing up to launch an M5-powered iPad Pro later this year, and has announced key organizational changes and its next developers conference.
As part of its moon-shot health goals, Apple has been working on Project Mulberry, a major upgrade to its Health app, featuring an AI-driven coach that can deliver customized health insights using user data. This app overhaul will be accompanied by a virtual health guide trained on inputs from internal and external medical professionals, including specialists in sleep, nutrition, and cardiology. The service, potentially branded as "Health+," is expected to debut with iOS 19.4 next year.
The app will integrate video explainers from physicians, track nutrition in detail, and even use iPhone cameras to assess users' exercise form. Apple is also constructing a facility near Oakland, California, where doctors will film educational content for the platform.

On the hardware front, Apple is testing four new versions of the iPad Pro featuring the M5 chip. These models, now in advanced testing, are expected to launch in the second half of 2025. The company is also working on an M6 version with its own modem chips, which could be ready by 2027. 
Meanwhile, M5 upgrades are coming to MacBook Pro and MacBook Air as well, likely following the same annual release cadence as their M4 predecessors.
Apple quietly announced its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2025 for June 9–13. The mostly virtual event will feature in-person segments for the keynote and State of the Union. This year's announcement carried a more restrained tone, contrasting with previous years' bold messaging.
The tech giant continues to diversify its business while rivals such as Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) and Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) make parallel moves in AI and health.

Most people start businesses to make more money. Mark Cuban? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43885487/billionaire-mark-cuban-said-the-first-step-to-getting-rich-is-giving-things-up-drink-water-eat-mac-and-cheese-and-save-every-penny">He's already got the billionaire badge</a>. Now he's out to prove that capitalism doesn't have to be cutthroat.
Speaking at <a href="https://youtu.be/y7TSb9oT1lg?si=tUEeiDQTeEUCNTc7">WIRED's The Big Interview</a> event in December, Cuban addressed why his online pharmacy, the Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company, doesn't chase massive profits.&nbsp;
"I could make more money," he said, pausing as the crowd laughed. "We're a public benefit corporation. But how much f—ing money do I need?"

</ul>
He then tossed in a casual dig at his favorite space-faring billionaire rival: "I'm not trying to land on Mars."
That one line summed up Cuban's whole approach to the drug business: practical, transparent, and firmly grounded on Earth.
He didn't have to name Elon Musk to make his point—but he did offer a nod: "And not to take anything away from him for trying. More power to him." Still, for Cubans, it's a simple trade-off: chase more money or shake up a bloated healthcare system. For him, the choice isn't even close.

Cost Plus Drugs, which Cuban launched in 2022 alongside radiologist Alex Oshmyansky, has been flipping the script on pharmaceutical pricing. Instead of jacking up costs like traditional pharmacy benefit managers—middlemen who negotiate drug prices but often mark them up and pocket the spread—the company slaps a flat 15% markup on the manufacturing price, plus a fixed pharmacy fee. No games, no bloated mystery charges.
It's the kind of pricing model that's caught attention—especially when it results in medications like Droxidopa costing around $20 per month through Cost Plus, compared to $3,000 elsewhere. Yes, that's a real number.
According to Cuban, if Medicare purchased just nine specific drugs through Cost Plus instead of existing suppliers, taxpayers could save billions.&nbsp;

He's not operating at a loss. The company is profitable. But unlike many of his billionaire peers, Cuban seems <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/02/43662970/mark-cuban-says-u-s-healthcare-is-horrific-calls-for-free-medical-school-to-fix-doctor-shortages-and-soaring-costs">more interested in delivering results</a> than flying too close to the sun—or Mars.
"No American should have to suffer—or worse—because they can't afford basic prescription medications," <a href="https://www.costplusdrugs.com/mission/">Cuban wrote in a public letter.</a> "Many people are spending crazy amounts of money each month just to stay healthy."
The company now offers more than 2,300 prescription meds with home delivery. It's lean, it's efficient, and it's exposing just how padded Big Pharma's bottom line really is.
So no, Cuban isn't angling for another billion. He's aiming for something rarer: a business model that actually helps people without being built on desperation.

Mark Cuban Says His Online Pharmacy Could Make More, But 'How Much Money Do I Need?'— Adds in Elon Musk Dig: 'Not Trying to Land on Mars'

Mark Cuban, the former majority owner of the Dallas Mavericks, revealed that his ownership of the team resulted in financial losses running into hundreds of millions of dollars.
What Happened: According to a recent report, Cuban has expressed his dissatisfaction with the Mavericks since he sold his majority share to the Adelson family in December 2023. 
Contrary to his expectations, he did not retain control over basketball operations, as it was not part of the contract when he sold the team. The Adelsons subsequently appointed Nico Harrison to take over.
In a recent Facebook comment, Cuban not only voiced his frustrations about his role with the team, but also revealed that owning the Mavericks was not a profitable venture. 
He claimed to have made money only twice in the 23 years he was the majority owner, resulting in losses of hundreds of millions of dollars.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

Responding to a former employee&#8217;s criticism, Cuban stated that he had done everything possible for the team over the years, including keeping ticket prices lower than any other NBA or college team.

&#8220;I did every damn thing I could for 23 years. Kept prices lower than not only any NBA team, but lower than college teams too. I had $2 tickets for multiple years. When I sold there were always 4k tickets under $29. I made money 2 out of 23 years I was the majority owner. Lost hundreds of millions of dollars,&#8221; Cuban said on Facebook.  
He also mentioned that he had given bonuses to Mavericks employees when he sold his majority share to the Adelsons.
Since taking over, the Adelsons have increased&nbsp;season ticket prices by an&nbsp;average of over 8% for the next season, hinting at a possible move out&nbsp;of the American Airlines Center.
Why It Matters: Cuban&#8217;s revelation highlights the financial challenges that can come with owning a sports team. Despite his efforts to keep ticket prices low and provide bonuses to employees, Cuban&#8217;s tenure as owner was marked by financial losses. 
This could serve as a cautionary tale for potential sports team owners, emphasizing the importance of sound financial management and strategic planning. 
The Adelsons&#8217; decision to increase ticket prices could be seen as a move to offset these losses, but it remains to be seen how this will impact the team and its fan base in the long run.

Mark Cuban's Big Revelation: Says He Lost 'Hundreds Of Millions' Owning The Dallas Mavericks

Major brands are making a cautious return to advertising on Elon Musk&#8216;s social media platform X.
What Happened: According to multiple marketing executives, companies are feeling the pressure to spend nominal amounts on advertising on X. 
This move comes in the wake of Musk&#8217;s influential role in the Trump administration and his legal action against entities that stopped advertising following his $44bn acquisition of the platform in 2022.
Recently, X added more companies to its lawsuit, including Shell, Nestlé, Pinterest, and Lego. Musk&#8217;s AI group xAi acquired X in a deal that valued the platform at $45bn. The plan is to integrate the data, models, and talent of both entities. Investors have shown a positive response to Musk&#8217;s cost-cutting strategy and rising revenues.

According to the report <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/8d3e4dba-1246-482d-9aaa-d970d2cb0a94">by </a>Financial Times, Musk, along with X CEO Linda Yaccarino, is working towards restoring the advertising revenues to 2022 levels. Emarketer data suggests a rise in X&#8217;s revenue to $2.3bn this year, marking an increase from $1.9bn the previous year.
Despite a 2% drop in&nbsp;US ad spend on X&nbsp;in the first two months&nbsp;of 2025, major ad agencies such as&nbsp;WPP,&nbsp;Omnicom,&nbsp;Interpublic Group, and&nbsp;Publicis&nbsp;have agreed&nbsp;to set annual spending targets&nbsp;with X.
Why It Matters: The advertising industry&#8217;s concerns have heightened following X&#8217;s federal antitrust lawsuit against the Global Alliance for Responsible Media, accusing them of an &#8220;illegal boycott&#8221;. 
This move indicates a potential shift in the power dynamics between social media platforms and advertisers, with the latter now seemingly compelled to spend on platforms to avoid legal repercussions.

Major Brands Resume Advertising On Musk's X Amid Legal Pressure

In a plea to President Donald Trump, American entrepreneur Leonid Smirnov has sought intervention in the Russian seizure of his $200 million canned food business, Glavprodukt.
What Happened: Smirnov, who fears his company is being systematically dismantled under Russian &#8220;temporary management,&#8221; has warned of potential repercussions for other US-owned businesses operating in Russia.
Russian authorities have seized Smirnov&#8217;s company, marking the first instance of an American-owned business being targeted. Smirnov, a Los Angeles-based businessman who fled the Soviet Union in the 1970s, founded Glavprodukt in 1999. The company has since become a household name in Russia, comparable to Campbell&#8217;s in the US.
Smirnov asserts that the seizure of his company is part of a larger campaign by President Vladimir Putin against foreign businesses in Russia. He cautions that if it can happen to him, it can happen to any of the hundreds of US-owned companies operating in Russia, reports <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/03/29/world-news/businessman-asking-trump-to-save-his-200-million-canned-food-empire/">The</a> New York Post.

Since the seizure, Smirnov&#8217;s Moscow-based company, which employs&nbsp;1,000 workers across three factories, has begun to experience losses for the first time, with the company&#8217;s value plummeting by&nbsp;as much as 30 percent. He&nbsp;fears for his and his&nbsp;family&#8217;s safety and has called on President Trump to intervene and safeguard American-owned businesses in Russia.
Secretary of State&nbsp;Marco Rubio&nbsp;has suggested that the issue of&nbsp;Glavprodukt would be part of&nbsp;any discussion about resetting U.S.-Russia relations. However, Smirnov fears his company may not survive until then.
Why It Matters: This incident underscores the precarious position of foreign businesses operating in Russia, particularly those owned by Americans. The seizure of Glavprodukt serves as a stark warning to other US-owned companies in Russia, highlighting the potential risks they face amidst escalating tensions between the two nations. 
The outcome of this situation could set a precedent for future dealings between US and Russian businesses, making this a matter of significant concern for American entrepreneurs and investors alike.

Us Businessman Appeals to Trump After Russia Seizes His $200 Million Food Empire

Paul Tudor Jones II, a legendary trader known for his unique investment strategy, stresses the significance of protecting existing wealth rather than chasing new fortunes.
Jones, who forwent a conventional business education to set up his own fund, Tudor Investment Corporation, has become a prominent figure in macro trading. His investment strategy doesn&#8217;t revolve around individual companies or sectors, but rather on predicting fluctuations in interest rates and currencies.
Jones gained significant recognition when he successfully shorted the market during Black Monday in 1987. His fund yielded a 200% return that year, earning him an estimated $100 million and establishing his reputation in the hedge fund industry.
In an <a href="https://chinese-school.netfirms.com/Paul-Tudor-Jones-interview.html">interview </a>in 2000, Jones said, &#8220;most people lose money as individual investors or traders because they're not focusing on losing money. He believed that one should not focus on making money but on protecting what you have.&#8221;
&#8220;People need to focus on the money that they have at risk and how much capital is at risk in any single investment they have. If everyone spent 90% of their time on that, not 90% of the time on pie-in-the-sky ideas of how much money they're going to make, then they would be incredibly successful investors,&#8221; he added.

Jones&#8217; career is marked by his extraordinary ability to foresee market shifts. He made substantial profits during the market crash in Japan in 1990 and again during the tech bubble burst in the early 2000s.
Jones asserts that the secret to successful trading lies in focusing on risk management and safeguarding existing investments. He encourages investors to dedicate 90% of their time contemplating the capital at risk in their investments instead of fantasizing about potential profits.
Despite a recent performance slump, Jones is resolute in demonstrating his enduring investment acumen. His primary hedge fund recorded&nbsp;an average annual gain of&nbsp;approximately&nbsp;26% from 1987 through 2007,&nbsp;which declined to around 5.3% from 2008 through 2016.
Jones&#8217; emphasis on protecting existing investments over pursuing new riches offers a valuable lesson for investors. His success, despite market fluctuations, underscores the importance of a strong defensive strategy and risk management in trading. 
This approach may be particularly relevant in today&#8217;s volatile market environment, where the focus on risk control could potentially safeguard investors from significant losses.

Legendary Trader Paul Tudor Jones II Says 'One Should Not Focus On Making Money But On Protecting What You Have'

The political activities of Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and SpaceX, have led to a significant backlash, causing a decline in Tesla&#8217;s sales and triggering protests against the company.
What Happened: Musk has been actively participating in politics, endorsing President Donald Trump&#8216;s reelection campaign and serving as a key advisor to the US leader.
As per the report <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-elon-musk-backlash-warren-buffett-politics-trump-spacex-government-2025-3">by </a>Insider, this political involvement has resulted in boycotts, protests, and even vandalism against Tesla. Musk expressed his surprise at the violent reactions, stating in a post, &#8220;Tesla just makes electric cars and has done nothing to deserve these evil attacks.&#8221;
In contrast,&nbsp;Warren Buffett, CEO of&nbsp;Berkshire Hathaway&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>), has steered clear of political involvement to avoid potential backlash against his companies. Buffett, who previously supported Democrats, has since retreated, stating he doesn&#8217;t want his employees and shareholders&nbsp;to &#8220;pay the price&#8221; for&nbsp;his political commentary.
However, experts like Sean Lux, an associate professor at Texas Tech University&#8217;s Rawls College of Business, argue that Musk and Buffett have different goals that shape their political strategies. For Musk, his ultimate mission is to reach Mars, and the US government could be a &#8220;tremendous catalyst or impediment&#8221; to those efforts.

Despite the backlash, Musk&#8217;s political involvement has had some benefits, such as&nbsp;the Federal Communications Commission&#8217;s recent&nbsp;decision to allow SpaceX&#8217;s Starlink&nbsp;unit to offer direct-to-cell satellite&nbsp;service.
However, the negative impact on Tesla is significant. New Tesla registrations in the US fell 11% in January, and shares are down 45% from their December high. Steven Callander, a professor of political economy at Stanford Graduate School of Business, said the &#8220;real cost to Tesla will be the lost sales and the brand damage.&#8221;
Why It Matters: Musk&#8217;s political activities and the subsequent backlash highlight the potential risks for CEOs who choose to engage in politics. The impact on Tesla&#8217;s sales and brand image underscores the potential consequences of such involvement. 
While Musk&#8217;s political activities may be driven by his larger mission of reaching Mars, the negative repercussions on Tesla&#8217;s business cannot be overlooked. 
This situation serves as a reminder for other CEOs to carefully consider the potential impact of their political involvement on their companies.

Why Elon Musk May Regret Ignoring Warren Buffett's Political Strategy

In a recent interaction with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, YouTube star MrBeast proposed ways to enhance Meta&#8216;s multilingual content reach, emphasizing the potential of AI-generated dubbing to increase viewer retention.
What Happened: MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, appeared on a podcast with Zuckerberg and pointed out that Meta's platforms lag behind YouTube in multilingual dubbing capabilities, which greatly impacts content reach.
During the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMW7-yk296U">interaction</a>, MrBeast elaborated that YouTube allows creators to upload multiple audio tracks in different languages, thereby increasing the accessibility of content for non-English speaking audiences. This feature is absent on Meta&#8217;s platforms, resulting in decreased viewership.
"One thing I think really sucks about Meta is like, on YouTube you can have different audio tracks. So 70% of my audience on YouTube don't speak English, so I upload videos, and then you just upload a bunch of different files, so if you click on my video in Mexico, it autoplays in Spanish," Donaldson said.
&nbsp;"What's brutal is when I post those same videos on Facebook or any of your platforms, I can't import the dubs over, so my viewership is always just infinitely lower because people from Mexico and Brazil and things can't watch it with dubs," he added. 
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/02/43903423/mrbeast-calls-his-amazon-deal-for-beast-games-a-financial-mistake-this-is-the-price-you-have-to-pay">MrBeast Calls His Amazon Deal for &#8216;Beast Games&#8217; a Financial Mistake: &#8216;This Is the Price You Have to Pay&#8217;</a>
Zuckerberg concurred with MrBeast&#8217;s evaluation, indicating that AI could be a potential solution. MrBeast affirmed that he has already witnessed enhanced viewer retention on other platforms that employ AI-generated dubs in his voice.
With a substantial following on YouTube, MrBeast stressed the significance of multilingual content, revealing that a large segment of his audience does not speak English. 
He further stated that if he were in the driver&#8217;s seat, refining the dubbing feature would be a top priority.
"If I was CEO that's one of the first things I would fast-track because, everything you do revolves around the creators and the people who use the platform and you want to help them get more views and more engagement," Donaldson added. 
Recognizing the problem, Zuckerberg agreed that AI offers a feasible solution to augment Meta&#8217;s multilingual content reach.
Why It Matters: The importance of multilingual content in expanding a platform&#8217;s reach cannot be overstated. As MrBeast pointed out, a significant portion of the global audience does not speak English, and providing content in multiple languages can significantly increase viewership. 
This is particularly relevant for Meta, which is striving to establish a global presence. By incorporating AI-generated dubbing, Meta could potentially enhance viewer retention and expand its user base. 
This could be a game-changer for the company, especially considering the increasing competition in the social media landscape.

시장에 불확실성이 만연해 있다. 시장이 하락하고 일관성이 결여된 관세 정책이 혼란을 야기하면서 기업 및 소비자 심리 데이터가 악화되고 있다. 세인트루이스 연은의 미국 경제 정책 불확실성 지수는 2020년 12월 이후 최고 수준으로 치솟았다. 미시간대학교 소비자심리지수는 1월부터 2월까지 거의 10% 하락했으며, 현재 전년 대비 17% 하락했다.
사업주들은 설문조사에서 계속해서 관세 불확실성을 언급하고 있다. 전미 자영업연맹(NFIB)의 중소기업 낙관 지수는 2월에 하락한 반면, NFIB 불확실성 지수는 역대 두 번째로 높은 수준으로 상승했다. 2025년에 대한 인플레이션 기대치가 높아지면서 연준이 성장을 촉진하기 위해 금리를 인하하거나 물가 상승을 제한하기 위해 금리를 동결하는 것 사이에서 고민에 빠질 수 있다.
이러한 불안정한 상황으로 인해 미국 증시가 글로벌 시장에 뒤처지면서 투자자들은 불안에 떨고 있다. 경기침체가 임박했다고 말하기에는 아직 이르지만, 방어적으로 생각하기에는 좋은 시기이다.
경기 둔화 시 실적이 좋은 업계에서 펀더멘털이 탄탄한 5가지 종목을 소개한다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">리퍼블릭 서비스</h3>
투자자들은 폐기물 관리 서비스를 떠올릴 때 일반적으로 웨이스트 매니지먼트(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WM#NYSE">WM</a>)를 떠올린다. 그러나 상대적으로 잘 알려지지 않은 리퍼블릭 서비스(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RSG#NYSE">RSG</a>)도 200개 이상의 매립지와 246개의 전환소를 통해 상업, 주거 및 산업 고형 폐기물 서비스를 통합적으로 운영하고 있다. 더 큰 경쟁사인 웨이스트 매니지먼트 대비 리퍼블릭 서비스는 비슷한 주가수익비율(P/E), 더 나은 마진, 훨씬 더 나은 주당 잉여현금흐름(P/FCF)(35.05 대 41.89)을 나타낸다. 또한 지난 12개월 동안 리퍼블릭 서비스 주가는 27% 이상 상승한 반면 웨이스트 매니지먼트 주가는 8.7% 상승했다.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXeQYUQ7_3cydY16LLDXhy3tPx67ZBSbD7zAXm0LZSi_YK4jG4znK7-82n9tBY5nW0cqOW7is2NPxTCd_cARmCuMp4QR8eNg7kqvhrXpbLNFEC4kUxm6UeZZqvS3ZrUS1B9-0NtJPQ?key=95UsgwGzx44WuMDzrgOVhBOD" alt="" /></figure>
리퍼블릭 서비스 주가는 3월 첫째 주에 하락했지만 상대강도지수(RSI)는 최근 상승 전환하여 다음 상승 구간을 위해 거래량이 축적되고 있음을 나타낸다. 리퍼블릭 서비스는 벤징가 엣지의 두 가지 중요한 지표에서도 좋은 점수를 받았는데, 모멘텀에서 86.20점, 품질에서 88.57점을 받았다. 3월 4일, CIBC 애널리스트들은 주가를 중립에서 시장수익률 상회로 상향 조정하고, 목표주가를 265달러로 제시했다. UBS, 골드만삭스, 스티펠도 지난달에 리퍼블릭 서비스 목표주가를 올렸다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">올리스 바겐 아울렛 홀딩스</h3>
경기 침체기에는 달러 스토어와 할인 소매업체가 인기 종목으로 꼽히는 경우가 많다. 하지만 이러한 환경에서는 마진이 적고 수입 의존도가 높은 종목에 투자하지 않도록 주의해야 한다. 올리스 바겐 아울렛(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OLLI#NASDAQ">OLLI</a>)은 제조업체와 도매업체로부터 과잉 재고 또는 과잉 생산된 상품을 구매하여 창고에서 대폭 할인된 가격으로 판매하는 업체다.<img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfcG4FxVYqcba9omEUNAKhflz5JRExFu1Px6XY5nPkQcPj67Y-TVlR7m6_ZlshjheXqH-h9pqOR38SrnD7MdEu0b4YSeZYeJwzQDKHNFYHShJVJsOyvNU8z4qDFgWmZtPRSpp08LA?key=95UsgwGzx44WuMDzrgOVhBOD" alt="" />
올리스 바겐의 비즈니스 모델은 달러 트리와 같은 전통적인 할인 소매업체보다 우위에 있다. 올리스 바겐의 9% 수익률은 달러 트리, 달러 제너럴, 심지어 월마트 또는 타깃 같은 대형 체인점의 수익률을 능가하는 수치다. 올리스 바겐은 전년 대비 매출이 8% 가까이 증가했지만, 지난 3개월 동안 주가는 10% 가까이 하락했다.
하지만 위 차트에서 볼 수 있듯이 지금이 바로 매수 기회일 수 있다. 상승 모멘텀은 멈췄지만 강세 쐐기가 형성되고 있으며, 이는 새로운 돌파를 준비하기 위해 매수자들이 통합되고 있다는 신호일 수 있다. 가격대가 계속 좁혀지고 있는 만큼 이 패턴의 잠재적 돌파 가능성을 주시해 보자.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">킴벌리 클라크</h3>
종이 타월, 화장지, 위생용품, 세제 및 기타 청소용품 같은 가정용품은 수요가 매우 비탄력적이기 때문에 불황이나 경기 침체기에 인기 있는 투자처가 되는 경우가 많다. 킴벌리 클라크(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMB#NYSE">KMB</a>)는 매력적인 밸류에이션, 강력한 배당금, 다년간의 거래 범위에서 벗어날 가능성으로 인해 가정용품 업계에서 손꼽히는 투자처이다.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXe-m4j-kU00Tja9IKDpC0ML9BehtIIiHcg_Khf25LWmceJmSwZPKUigPpvh_NxgYsCwZngce9DWDIFOzAVATHMzu0VkQQDJnwaUC8ZHpMBDVtQLNa6u25Fx6_7_M1th3U1ieBQ50A?key=95UsgwGzx44WuMDzrgOVhBOD" alt="" /></figure>
최근 킴벌리 클라크 주가는 2020년 말부터 유지되던 저항선을 돌파하며 거의 5년 만에 최고치를 기록했다. 이 유망한 기술적 신호는 강력한 펀더멘털 데이터도 뒷받침하고 있다. 킴벌리 클라크는 수익 대비 19배에 불과한 주가로, 프록터 앤 갬블이나 콜게이트-팜올리브 같은 경쟁사보다 훨씬 낮은 수준에서 거래되고 있다. 또한 12.7%의 건전한 이익 마진을 유지하면서 매출의 2.4배에 불과한 가격으로 거래되고 있다. 킴벌리 클라크는 3.5%의 배당금을 지급하고 있으며 최근 급등으로 벤징가 엣지 모멘텀 점수가 71.54로 상승했는데 이는 필수소비재 섹터에서는 드문 경우다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">유넘 그룹</h3>
투자자가 거의 들어본 적이 없지만 가장 멋진 차트를 가진 보험회사가 있다. 유넘 그룹(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNM#NYSE">UNM</a>)은 미국, 영국, 폴란드의 고객에게 개인 소득 보호 플랜을 제공하는 동시에 콜로니얼 라이프(Colonial Life) 및 클로즈드 블록(Closed Block) 같은 부문을 통해 장기 요양, 생명 및 직원 복리후생 보험 플랜도 제공한다.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXdknAMM85XGJH8djOqkIt-uokaPzFLoS-Iv7YSxhVd04dtjb74hN7kl6219XOMHhTQmGfzDsvfpNbR72bwlBbkPS1k6hINLxoO1eCGpJme2MxixnPxzuqHp2vryBg0MQS1b9A2n?key=95UsgwGzx44WuMDzrgOVhBOD" alt="" /></figure>
유넘 그룹은 2022년 약세장에서 대부분의 주식이 장기적인 하락세를 겪을 때 플러스 상승을 기록하며 뛰어난 성과를 거두었다. 주가는 2024년에 랠리를 시작했으며 지난 12개월 동안 60% 이상 상승했다. 펀더멘털 관점에서 볼 때 주당순자산가치 1.27, 주가수익비율 8.3, 이익률 13.9%로 탄탄한 위치에 있다. 또한 세 가지 중요한 벤징가 엣지 지표인 모멘텀(94.60), 가치(89.28), 품질(84.32)에서 뛰어난 평가를 받았다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">버크셔 해서웨이</h3>
워런 버핏이 현금을 모으기 시작하면 투자자들은 주목하기 시작한다. &#8216;오마하의 현인&#8217;이 버크셔 해서웨이(NYSE:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BRK.A">BRK.A</a>)(NYSE:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BRK.B">BRK.B</a>)의 현금 보유액을 늘리기 위해 주식을 매도하고 있다. 94세의 워런 버핏은 우리와는 다른 투자 목표를 가지고 있을 수 있지만, 버핏이 새로운 자본을 투입하기 전에 변동성이 줄어들기를 기다리고 있다는 신호로 현금을 쌓기 시작하는 것은 주목할 만한 일이다.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXc-bLC_d9K-RvtDyN99OcIiYYgI6WjcwCG67aV6slY2NIeGDqcU2N7BywlpEWDUzQZb7zi1f-wpQoiSiwpw1f-NsuVs-Dr2nMAl6nZQ312bH3LGPs0kRmEckODPZ51eaJrONLSa?key=95UsgwGzx44WuMDzrgOVhBOD" alt="" /></figure>
버핏이 보유한 현금은 그의 장기 투자 실적을 고려할 때 드문 일이 아니다. 버핏은 개인 투자자를 위한 매수 후 보유 전략을 칭찬하지만, 그 자신은 항상 시장 타이밍에 맞춰 투자했다. 버핏의 현금 보유는 변동성이 줄어들기를 기다렸다가 새로운 자본을 투입하겠다는 뜻으로 해석할 수 있다.
경기 침체가 현실화되든 그렇지 않든, 버크셔 해서웨이(B) 같은 주식은 경기가 진정되기를 기다리는 동안 보유하기에 좋은 종목이다. 버크셔의 잉여현금흐름은 116억 달러에 달하며, 주가는 수익의 12배에 거래되고 있다. 이 거대 보험사는 모멘텀(82.74)과 가치(73.69) 측면에서도 벤징가 엣지에서 좋은 평가를 받았다. 주식 차트는 지난주 동안 약간의 통합을 보여 주며 상승 추세는 그대로 유지되고 있다.

크리스마스 직전 토요일(&#8216;슈퍼 새터데이&#8217;)인 12월 21일에는 소매업체의 오프라인 매장 방문을 의미하는 &#8216;풋 트래픽&#8217;이 급증했다. <a href="//www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42273676/walmart-target-bath-body-works-stand-out-as-black-friday-winners-analysts"" target="_blank" rel="noopener">홀리데이 쇼핑</a>의 마지막 주에 수혜를 입은 종목을 살펴보자.
무슨 일 있었나: 올해 슈퍼 새터데이의 소매업체 풋 트래픽은 2024년 일평균에 비해 평균 58% 증가했으며, 이는 2024년 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42247997/walmart-shoppers-shun-electronics-for-black-friday-deals-on-eggs-bread-slippers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">연말 홀리데이 쇼핑 시즌</a>에 소매주가 수혜를 볼 수 있는 추세로 보인다.
<a href="https://www.placer.ai/blog/super-saturday-2024-recap" target="_blank" rel="noopener">플레이서.ai(Placer.ai)의 보고</a>에 따르면 일평균 58% 증가율은 블랙 프라이데이의 일평균 51.1% 증가율보다 높은 수치다. 12월 22일 일요일에도 소매업체 풋 트래픽이 일평균 대비 38.2%  증가했다.
이번 풋 트래픽은 올해 일평균 대비 58% 증가했지만, 작년 슈퍼 새터데이에 일평균 대비 74.4% 증가했던 것에 비하면 적은 폭이었다. 다만 작년 데이터에서 유의할 점은 슈퍼 새터데이가 12월 23일이었고 크리스마스 이전 마지막 남은 쇼핑일이었다는 것이다.
올해의 크리스마스 쇼핑 시즌의 가장 큰 수혜자는 백화점일 수 있다. 전체 백화점의 풋 트래픽은 2024년 슈퍼 새터데이에 일평균 대비 128.7% 증가해, 2023년 슈퍼 새터데이에 일평균 대비 119.4% 증가했던 것보다 높은 수치를 기록했다.
플레이서.ai가 추적한 백화점 중 전년 대비 방문자 수가 증가한 백화점은 다음과 같다.
<ul>
<li>노드스트롬 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JWN#NYSE">JWN</a>): +8.8%</li>
<li>메이시스 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/M#NYSE">M</a>)의 블루밍데일스: +4.7%</li>
<li>JC페니: +1.3%</li>
</ul>
또한 레크리에이션 및 스포츠용품 매장, 뷰티 및 셀프케어 매장 및 기타 전문 카테고리의 트래픽이 크게 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 다음은 추적 대상 소매업체 중 일부와 작년 슈퍼 새터데이 대비 트래픽 증가율을 살펴본 결과다.
<ul>
<li>올리스 바겐 아울렛 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OLLI#NASDAQ">OLLI</a>): +7.3%</li>
<li>TJX 컴퍼니 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TJX#NYSE">TJX</a>)의 TJ맥스: +4.6%</li>
<li>파이브 빌로우 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FIVE#NASDAQ">FIVE</a>): +4.2%</li>
</ul>
해당 보고서에 따르면 슈퍼마켓, 식료품점 및 할인 소매업체는 작년 슈퍼 새터데이가 크리스마스와 매우 가까웠기 때문에 전년 대비 낮은 성장률을 보였다.
사이먼 프로퍼티 그룹이 소유한 쇼핑몰과 같은 실내 쇼핑몰도 슈퍼 새터데이의 혜택을 받았을 수 있다. 플레이서.ai 데이터에 따르면 2024년 일평균에 비해 슈퍼 새터데이에 실내 쇼핑몰의 풋 트래픽이 177.1% 증가했다.
왜 중요한가: 슈퍼 새터데이를 앞두고 미국소매협회(NRF)는 연례 설문조사를 바탕으로 1억 5,720만 명의 소비자가 쇼핑 휴일에 쇼핑할 것으로 <a href="https://nrf.com/media-center/press-releases/157-million-consumers-to-shop-on-super-saturday" target="_blank" rel="noopener">예상했다.</a>
이러한 수치는 2023년 슈퍼 새터데이 쇼핑객 1억 4,190만 명보다 높은 수치이며, 지난 9년 동안 1억 5,850만 명의 2022년에 이어 두 번째로 높은 수치다.
NRF의 산업 및 소비자 인사이트 담당 부사장 캐서린 컬렌(Katherine Cullen)은 "슈퍼 새터데이는 소비자들이 쇼핑 목록에 남은 품목을 구매할 수 있는 연휴 기간의 마지막 기회 중 하나&#8221;라고 강조했다. 컬렌 부사장은 추수감사절이 11월에 늦어지면서 연휴 쇼핑 시즌이 짧아져 막판 쇼핑객이 늘어날 가능성이 높아졌다는 점을 그 이유로 꼽았다.
설문조사에 따르면 2023년 5,830만 명에서 증가한 6,950만 명이 오프라인과 온라인 쇼핑을 모두 계획하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이번 조사에서 오프라인 매장에서만 쇼핑하겠다는 응답자는 37%에서 31%로 감소한 반면, 온라인에서만 쇼핑하겠다는 응답자의 비율은 22%에서 24%로 증가했다.
위의 결과와 마찬가지로 NRF 설문조사에서도 백화점이 슈퍼 새터데이의 잠재적 승자로 꼽혔으며, 쇼핑객의 37%가 백화점에서 연말 쇼핑을 마무리할 계획이라고 답했다.
온라인 쇼핑을 마친다는 응답이 49%로 가장 많았으며, 할인점은 27%, 의류 및 액세서리 매장은 25%의 소비자가 꼽았다.
NRF 설문조사에 따르면 가장 인기 있는 선물 구매 품목은 의류 및 액세서리(50%), 장난감(32%), 기프트 카드(26%), 책, 비디오 게임 및 기타 미디어(24%)로 나타났다.
연휴 쇼핑 시즌이 짧아지면서 매일, 특히 주말에 풋 트래픽이 높은 소매업체에는 호재로 작용했을 수 있다. 관건은 추수감사절과 크리스마스 사이의 총 쇼핑 일수 감소를 상쇄할 만큼 일일 증가율이 충분한지 여부다.
크리스마스 이후 쇼핑 시간도 증가할 수 있는데, 설문조사에 참여한 소비자의 71%가 작년과 비슷하게 크리스마스 이후에 쇼핑할 계획이 있다고 답했다.
NRF는 11월 1일부터 12월 31일까지의 전체 연말 쇼핑 시즌이 2024년보다 2.5%~3% 증가하여 9,795억~9,890억 달러의 기록적인 범위를 기록할 것으로 예상하고 있다.

하니웰(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HON#NASDAQ">HON</a>)은 다시 큰 계획과 이사회 브레인스토밍으로 돌아왔다. 이번에는 노스캐롤라이나주 샬럿에 본사를 둔 이 회사가 항공우주 사업을 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/asset-sales/24/12/42505835/honeywell-advances-strategic-review-explores-aerospace-business-separation">독립시키는 방안</a>을 검토 중이다. 최근 하니웰은 2025년 말 또는 2026년 초까지 자사 첨단소재 사업부를 독립된 상장회사로 분할할 계획을 발표했다. 또한, 개인 보호 장비(PPE) 사업부를 프로텍티브 인더스트리얼 프로덕츠(Protective Industrial Products)에 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42140202/honeywell-to-exit-ppe-business-with-1325-billion-sale-plans-advanced-materials-spinoff" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">현금 13억 2,500만 달러</a>에 매각하기로 하였다.

유럽연합 집행위원회는 엔비디아(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>)가 이스라엘에 본사를 둔 GPU 오케스트레이션 소프트웨어 제공업체 Run:ai Labs Ltd를 인수하는 것에 대해 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/12/42621868/nvidia-secures-eu-approval-for-runai-deal-us-probes-china-export-breach">무조건적인 승인을</a> 내렸다. EU 합병 규정에 따른 이번 결정은 인수가 유럽 경제 지역 내에서 경쟁 문제를 제기하지 않을 것이라고 결론지었다. 엔비디아는 Run:ai의 소프트웨어를 자사의 생태계에 통합할 계획이다. Run:ai는 조직이 인공지능(AI) 컴퓨팅 작업 부하를 최적화하고 관리할 수 있도록 돕는 소프트웨어를 전문으로 한다.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">파산 블록</h2>
가구 및 소매업체인 빅랏츠(Big Lots Inc.)의 9월 챕터 11 파산 신청과 다가오는 매장 폐쇄는 경쟁업체인 올리스 바겐 아웃렛 홀딩스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OLLI#NASDAQ">OLLI</a>)에게 이익이 될 수 있다고 JP모건의 애널리스트 매튜 보스(Matthew R. Boss)가 말했다. 9월 9일, 빅랏츠는 챕터 11을 신청하고 자산을 넥서스 캐피털 매니지먼트(Nexus Capital Management LP)에 매각하기로 발표했다. 이후 회사의 주식은 뉴욕증권거래소에서 상장폐지되었다. 3분기 재무 보고서는 매출 감소, 이익률 악화, 현금 지속적 유출로 어려움을 겪고 있는 회사의 모습을 드러냈다. 12월 19일, 오하이주 콜럼버스에 본사를 둔 회사는 넥서스 캐피털에 대한 매각이 무산되었다고 발표하며 &#8220;넥서스 또는 다른 당사자와의 대체 지속 거래를 완료하기 위해 계속 노력하고 있다&#8221;고 전했다. CEO 브루스 손(Bruce Thorn)이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42624759/big-lots-holds-liquidation-sales-analyst-pegs-competitor-as-major-beneficiary-market-share-capture-opportunity">청산 세일</a>을 발표했다.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">블록의 메모</h2>
벤징가는 최근 토니 로마스(Tony Roma&#8217;s)의 CEO 모하이미나 하케(Mohaimina(Mina) Haque)와 다양한 주제에 대해 인터뷰를 진행했다. 여기에는 레스토랑 체인의 자본 조달 이니셔티브가 포함된다:
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">BZ: 글로벌 시장은 어떤 모습인가?</h3>
전 세계적으로 많은 관심이 있다. 우리는 두바이, 베를린, 말레이시아의 쿠알라룸푸르 및 호주의 퍼스에 있다. 브랜드 인지도가 높다. 미국에서는 Z세대와 밀레니얼 세대가 성장하면서 매장 규모가 줄어들었다. 그래서 우리는 토니 로마스를 그리워하는 세대와 아직 경험해 보지 못한 세대 간의 다리를 놓으려고 노력하고 있다. 공급망 문제와 가맹점이 우리의 지적 재산권을 지켜보는 것과 같은 도전 과제가 있다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">BZ: M&amp;A는 여전히 계획 중인가?</h3>
가능성은 있다. 우리는 글로벌 및 국내 입장을 확장하는 데 관심이 있는 당사자들이 있다. 따라서 여전히 벤처 캐피털 또는 사모펀드와 함께 카드를 만지고 있다. 회사의 더 폭발적인 성장을 원하고 관심 있는 모든 분들을 위해 우리는 대규모 자본 투자가 가능한 파트너를 찾고 있다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">BZ: 예상 투자 규모는 얼마인가?</h3>
대략적으로 1천만 달러에서 2천만 달러 사이로 예상한다.

딜 디스패치: 하니웰, 텍스트론, 디로컬 및 소호 하우스가 M&A 움직임 중

빅랏츠(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIG#NYSE">BIG</a>)의 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40767067/another-retailer-takes-chapter-11-route-big-lots-files-for-bankruptcy-and-agrees-to-sell-assets-">챕터 11 파산 보호 신청</a>은 경쟁사인 올리스 바겐 아웃렛 홀딩스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OLLI#NASDAQ">OLLI</a>)에게 성장 기회를 의미할 수 있다고 한 애널리스트가 말했다.
오하이오주 콜럼버스에 본사를 둔 이 할인 소매업체는 월요일 모든 자산과 지속적인 사업 운영을 투자 회사인 넥서스 캐피털 매니지먼트(Nexus Capital Management)의 계열사에 매각할 것이라고 확인했다. 이는 일부 소매점을 폐쇄하는 결정도 포함된다고 밝혔다.
올리스는 매장 수를 현재 525개 매장에서 장기 포화 목표인 1,300개 매장으로 늘리기 위해 노력하고 있기 때문에 폐쇄된 빅랏츠 위치를 인수할 기회가 있을 수 있다고 J.P.모건 체이스의 분석가인 매튜 보스(Matthew Boss)가 말했다.
올리스는 또한 매장 중 430개가 빅랏츠 매장과 가까운 거리에 있다는 사실로부터 이익을 얻을 수 있다고 그가 말했다.
그는 월요일 메모에서 &#8220;우리는 측면 폐점 소매업체인 OLLI를 트래픽 증가의 주요 수혜자로 보고 있으며 빅랏츠 매장에서 5마일 이내에 있는 OLLI의 525개 매장 중 80-85%를 차지하는 지갑 점유율을 가속화하고 있다&#8221;고 썼다.
8월 29일 현재 소매점 1,392개 중 296개를 폐쇄하려는 빅랏츠의 계획은 올리스가 현재 말까지 매장 수를 560개로 늘린 후 2025 회계연도와 2026 회계연도 동안 매장 수를 13.5% 늘리는 데 도움이 될 수 있다고 보스가 말했다. 매장과 시장 점유율의 이러한 성장은 올리스의 총 이익률을 40.5%에서 41%로 높이는 데 도움이 될 수 있다.
주가 움직임: 월요일 빅랏츠의 주가는 애프터 마켓 거래에서 40.22% 하락하여 30센트로 떨어졌다. 올리스는 월요일 정규 거래에서 5.92% 상승하여 92.48달러로 마감했다.
