머크 앤드 컴퍼니(NYSE:MRK)의 주가가 목요일에 소폭 반등세를 보이고 있지만 여전히 약세에서 벗어나지 못한 형국이다. 주가가 결국 95.00달러 정도 수준에 도달하면 주가가 반전되어 상승할 가능성이 높다. 차트에서 볼 수 있듯이 이는 11월 말에 일어난 일이다. 이러한 이유로 우리 기술 분석 팀은 이를 오늘의 주식으로 선정했다.

Kimberly-Clark Increases Its Commitment To India Through Its Global Digital Technology Center In Bengaluru

NIO Reveals Repurchase Right Notification For 0.50% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2027

BYD Co Ltd&#8216;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) contractor Jinjiang Group on Thursday said that the Brazilian authority&#8217;s portrayal of its employees working at the Chinese EV giant&#8217;s factory in Brazil as &#8220;enslaved&#8221; is &#8220;completely inconsistent with facts.&#8221;
What Happened: Jinjiang said that their workers were unjustly labeled as enslaved, making them feel insulted. 
&#8220;Being unjustly labeled as &#8216;enslaved&#8217; has made our employees feel that their dignity has been insulted and their human rights violated, seriously hurting the dignity of the Chinese people. We have signed a joint letter to express our true feelings,&#8221; Jinjiang said on Weibo, as translated by Reuters news agency.
Lin Yunfei, general manager of branding and public relations at BYD, also reposted the statement. 
BYD did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment.
Why It Matters: Brazilian authorities said on Monday that they have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/12/42667814/brazil-authorities-halt-work-at-byd-factory-site-after-workers-found-in-slavery-like-conditions">halted the construction of the plant that BYD&nbsp;is building in Salvador</a>, Bahia after finding workers living and working in conditions analogous to "slavery."
Authorities ordered that the construction of the factory in Bahia be stopped after rescuing 163 people working at the site, according to a statement by the Labor Prosecutor's Office (MPT).
The authorities shut down the workers' lodgings and communicated the same to both BYD and construction firm Jinjiang Construction Brazil Ltd, one of the contractors hired by the company to carry out the construction, it added.
The MPT also noted that the conditions constituted "forced labor." If a worker were to terminate their employment contract after six months, they would leave the country without any pay for their work since the company deducted their airfare to and from Brazil, in addition to other costs, the statement said.
BYD was planning to start production at the factory in Brazil in 2025.

Tesla, Toyota And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Thursday

Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) is reportedly close to merging its South Korean operations with E-Mart Inc. in a deal valued at approximately $4 billion. This strategic move aims to bolster their position in South Korea&#8217;s competitive online retail market.
What Happened: The potential joint venture would combine the e-commerce assets of both companies, creating a stronger entity to challenge local competitors like Naver Corp. and Coupang Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPNG#NYSE">CPNG</a>). Discussions are ongoing, and while an announcement could come as soon as this week, finalizing the agreement may take longer, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-26/alibaba-is-said-to-near-4-billion-deal-with-korea-s-e-mart">reported</a> on Thursday.
The merger comes as Alibaba seeks to expand its international presence amid slowing growth in its core Chinese market. Meanwhile, E-Mart has been actively growing its e-commerce segment, notably acquiring a controlling interest in eBay Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EBAY#NASDAQ">EBAY</a>) South Korean marketplace in 2021 for roughly $3 billion.
Neither Alibaba nor E-Mart has commented on the matter yet to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga</a>.

This development occurs against a backdrop of declining consumer confidence in South Korea, impacted by political instability following President Yoon Suk Yeol&#8217;s&nbsp;declaration of martial law and&nbsp;subsequent impeachment.
Why It Matters: The potential merger between Alibaba and E-Mart is part of Alibaba&#8217;s broader strategy to refocus on its core e-commerce operations. Earlier this year,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/36912036/alibaba-plans-to-sell-off-grocery-and-retail-assets-doubles-down-on-e-commerce-core">Alibaba announced plans</a>&nbsp;to divest several consumer sector assets, including its grocery business Freshippo and retailer RT-Mart. This move aligns with the company&#8217;s strategic pivot under Chairman Joe Tsai and CEO Eddie Wu, aiming to shed non-essential and unprofitable units.
Moreover, Alibaba&#8217;s recent investment of $71.4 million in South Korean apparel brand Ably Corp has turned it into the country&#8217;s first unicorn of 2024, highlighting Alibaba&#8217;s growing interest in the South Korean market. This investment valued <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42260627/south-korea-gets-its-first-unicorn-of-2024-as-china-based-alibaba-invests-714m-in-ably-corp">Ably at over $1 billion</a>, marking a significant increase from its previous valuation.

Alibaba Nears $4B E-Commerce Merger With South Korea's E-Mart: Report

Peter Thiel, former CEO of PayPal, once shared his perspective on the evolving role of artificial intelligence and its potential impact on math skills.
What Happened: In April, earlier this year, speaking on the &#8220;Conversations with Tyler&#8221; podcast, Thiel suggested that AI&#8217;s rise could reduce the emphasis on math proficiency, as AI systems can solve complex mathematical problems.
The billionaire expressed concerns about Silicon Valley&#8217;s heavy focus on math, describing it as an unstable trend. He questioned the link between math skills and other fields, such as neurosurgery, and proposed that AI could lead to a societal transformation.&nbsp;

Thiel likened this potential change to the impact of IBM&#8217;s Deep Blue defeating chess champion Garry Kasparov in 1997, which altered perceptions of chess skills.
&#8220;Isn&#8217;t that what&#8217;s going to happen to math and isn&#8217;t that a long overdue rebalancing of our society,&#8221; he stated.
His remarks suggest a possible rebalancing in society, where math may no longer be the primary measure of ability.

Why It Matters: The integration of AI into everyday tasks is already underway.
Acquired by Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s subsidiary Google a year ago, Photomath already helps users <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/03/37475397/solve-math-problems-easily-at-home-with-googles-ai-a-step-by-step-guide-to-using-photomath">solve complex math problems</a>, from basic arithmetic to advanced calculus.
Earlier this year, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd also made strides in AI with its Qwen2-Math models. These models reportedly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40311463/alibabas-new-math-ai-models-outshine-us-counterparts-report">outperformed U.S. counterparts</a> in mathematical tasks.
Last year in March, OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT, with the Wolfram plug-in, scored 96% on the U.K. A-level math exam, a key benchmark for university admissions. In comparison, ChatGPT alone scored just 43%.
Experts also remain skeptical that AI will replace mathematicians in the near future, according to a June 2023 <a href="https://www.scmp.com/video/technology/3223174/ai-better-maths-mathematicians">report</a> by the South China Morning Post.

Peter Thiel Once Said He Would Bet On The Reversal Of Silicon Valley's Math Bias As AI Continues To Rise: 'Isn't That A Long Overdue Rebalancing Of Our Society'

Chinese EV giant BYD Co Ltd (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) overtook its American rival Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) in the fourth quarter of 2023 as the world&#8217;s biggest battery electric vehicle seller. Tesla, however, took back the title in the first quarter of this year and has been holding on to it since.
What Happened: In the last quarter of 2023, BYD sold 526,409 battery electric vehicles, effectively replacing Tesla as the world&#8217;s biggest seller of BEVs. Tesla in that quarter delivered just 484,507 units. 
Tesla regained its position as the world&#8217;s top seller of BEVs in the first quarter after selling 386,810 BEVs, 86,696 units more than BYD. Unlike Tesla which sells only battery electric vehicles, BYD also makes plug-in hybrids.

In Q2 and Q3 this year, Tesla kept its lead ahead of BYD in global BEV deliveries despite hardships. 
In <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42259569/chinese-ev-behemoth-and-tesla-rival-byd-marks-68-growth-in-november-sales-on-rising-popularity-of-plug-in-hybrid-evs">October and November</a>, BYD cumulatively sold 387,679 battery-electric vehicles. The company now needs to sell around 112,400 BEVs in December to cross 500,000 BEV sales in a quarter yet again. 
As for Tesla, it is unclear how many vehicles the company has sold thus far this quarter given it only releases sales data at the end of every three months.
For the full year 2023, Tesla delivered 1,808,581 vehicles around the globe. To mark a growth over last year, the company has to deliver at least 514,926 vehicles in the three months through the end of December. Tesla has not delivered over 500,000 vehicles in a quarter to date, making this an ambitious target. 
Furthermore, according to data from the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA), the company is faced with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42571913/tesla-registrations-drop-by-nearly-41-in-november-in-eu-dragging-down-optimism-for-over-500000-ev-deliveries-in-q4">demand challenges in the European Union</a> which might weigh heavily upon the company&#8217;s annual delivery target. 
Financials: 
For the third quarter between July and September, BYD's operating revenue rose 24% to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41647639/teslas-chinese-rival-byd-outshines-elon-musks-ev-giant-in-quarterly-revenue-for-first-time-since-202" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">201.12 billion yuan ($27.55 billion)</a>, the company said in a filing.
Tesla, meanwhile,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41501607/tesla-q3-earnings-highlights-eps-beat-revenue-miss-shares-climb-on-2025-timeline-for-lower-cost-evs" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported a total revenue</a>&nbsp;of only $25.18 billion in the same quarter, making it the first time since 2022 that BYD has trumped&nbsp;Elon Musk&#8217;s&nbsp;EV giant in quarterly revenue. BYD stopped making combustion engine vehicles in March 2022 to focus on electric vehicles.
Despite reporting higher revenue than Tesla in the third quarter, BYD&#8217;s net profit continued to trail behind<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41501607/tesla-q3-earnings-highlights-eps-beat-revenue-miss-shares-climb-on-2025-timeline-for-lower-cost-evs" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;Tesla&#8217;s net income of $2.167 billion</a>. The company reported a diluted earnings per share of 4 yuan (55 cents) for the quarter, lower than Tesla&#8217;s adjusted earnings per share of 72 cents.

Earnings Scheduled For December 26, 2024

Amid the bustling holiday season, an Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) driver left 80 packages in a wooded area in Lakeville, Massachusetts. This incident occurred because the company faced intense pressure to meet delivery demands.
What Happened: A stressed Amazon driver abandoned 80 packages&nbsp;in a wooded area near&nbsp;Lakeville, Massachusetts, just days before Christmas.&nbsp;A Lakeville police sergeant discovered&nbsp;the&nbsp;packages during a routine patrol&nbsp;early Sunday morning, finding them scattered in three large totes near 63 Bedford Street, NBC News <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/stressed-amazon-driver-abandons-80-packages-mass-woods-holiday-shippin-rcna185343">reported</a> on Thursday.
The packages were not reported as stolen or missing. The police contacted a nearby&nbsp;Amazon distribution center in Middleborough&nbsp;to facilitate the return of the items. On Monday, the driver confessed to leaving the packages on the roadside Saturday evening "because they were stressed" and intended to inform their manager about the incident.

Lakeville Police Chief Matthew Perkins stated that no criminal charges would be pursued, considering the matter a human resources issue for Amazon. Chief Perkins praised the officers for handling the situation. The driver&#8217;s identity remains undisclosed, and the police department has closed the case without further action.
Amazon has yet to respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga</a>&#8216;s queries.
Why It Matters: The incident highlights the mounting pressure on Amazon during the holiday season, a critical period for retailers. The fourth quarter, which includes Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Christmas shopping, can account for up to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42676608/will-amazon-dethrone-walmart-this-holiday-season-here-is-what-you-should-know">40% of annual sales </a>for retailers like Amazon and&nbsp;Walmart Inc.

'Stressed' Amazon Driver Dumps 80 Packages In Massachusetts Woods Amid Christmas Holiday Rush

The clock is ticking for TikTok as the Supreme Court of the United States or SCOTUS prepares to hear arguments that could determine the future of the app in America.
With the Jan. 19 deadline fast approaching, a potential nationwide could impact the app used by over 170 million users. Here&#8217;s everything you need to know about this high-stakes battle.
When Will SCOTUS Review The Ban
The Supreme Court will review TikTok&#8217;s arguments on Jan. 10, 2025. This urgent hearing comes after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit upheld the ban earlier this year.

What Is TikTok's Argument&nbsp;
TikTok is urging the Supreme Court to overturn the ruling by the appeals court. The platform argues that banning it violates First Amendment rights, while the government defends the ban as necessary for national security.
Who's Interested In Buying TikTok
Billionaire Frank McCourt has expressed interest in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/06/39457779/real-estate-billionaire-frank-mccourt-wants-to-buy-tiktok-to-transform-internets-influence-on-societ">acquiring TikTok's U.S. operations</a>, pledging up to $20 billion with a consortium of associates. However, any deal would exclude TikTok's algorithm.
Previously, former U.S. treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin and Canadian businessman Kevin O'Leary both <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/03/37886126/kevin-oleary-wants-to-buy-tiktok-and-is-scouting-for-investment-an-interesting-deal">announced plans to form</a> investor groups, with O'Leary proposing a $20–$30 billion bid.

Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski publicly offered to lead a consortium for a U.S. acquisition, while former Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick has reportedly been exploring partnerships for a bid.
Oracle and Walmart, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/20/09/17575532/tiktok-ban-averted-as-trump-gives-deal-with-oracle-walmart-his-blessing">nearly acquired</a> TikTok in 2020, and Microsoft, which pursued a deal that same year, have also been mentioned as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/04/38358239/microsoft-and-oracle-could-be-tiktoks-likely-buyers-but-real-winners-would-be-mark-">potential contenders</a> this year. There were <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40866761/is-amazon-eyeing-tiktok-for-a-possible-acquisition">also speculations</a> about Amazon eyeing the TikTok acquisition.
Trump's Changing Stance In his last administration, President-elect Donald Trump targeted ByteDance but he has since expressed a softened view. Earlier this month, there were reports of a meeting between TikTok's CEO Shou Zi Chew and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42522134/trump-meets-tiktok-ceo-shou-zi-chew-at-mar-a-lago-as-platform-urges-supreme-court-to-block-looming-ban">Trump at Mar-a-Lago</a>.
"We&#8217;ll take a look at TikTok," Trump stated earlier that day. "You know, I have a warm spot in my heart for TikTok."
Michael Walz, the NSA designate and a former congressman, has also in the past voiced strong opposition to TikTok. Now he has since aligned his views with the president-elect's evolving position.

TikTok On Trial: Supreme Court Prepares To Weigh National Security Risks

Amid the global shift towards electric vehicles,&nbsp;Andy Palmer, often referred to as the &#8220;godfather of EVs,&#8221; has issued a cautionary note to automakers. He warns against prioritizing hybrid vehicles over fully electric models, a strategy he believes could leave them lagging behind Chinese competitors.
What Happened: Palmer, a former&nbsp;Aston Martin&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMGDF#OTC">AMGDF</a>) CEO and&nbsp;Nissan&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) executive, highlighted the rapid advancements made by Chinese automakers like&nbsp;BYD (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>)&nbsp;in the electric vehicle market. These companies have gained significant ground domestically by offering cost-effective and technologically advanced vehicles. 
&#8220;The Chinese cars are bloody good. The Chinese vehicles offer remarkable value for money for what they deliver,&#8221; Palmer said<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/godfather-of-evs-explains-why-china-is-winning-ev-race-2024-12"> to</a> Business Insider.
Palmer pointed out that Chinese brands excel in battery technology and software, providing exceptional value.
Palmer attributed China&#8217;s success in the EV sector to its strategic industrial policies, which have seen the government invest over $230 billion in subsidies since 2009. During his time at&nbsp;Dongfeng Motor Company, a joint venture with Nissan, he witnessed China&#8217;s aggressive EV strategy firsthand.

In response to China&#8217;s rise, the U.S. and Europe have implemented tariffs to protect their industries. However, Palmer argued that such tariffs could stifle Western competitiveness.
&#8220;My experience with tariffs is it just makes your indigenous industry lazy. The gap becomes even bigger,&#8221; he said.
He urged automakers to prepare for fierce competition with Chinese firms, especially in Europe, where companies like BYD and Xpeng are expanding.
Why It Matters: The global electric vehicle landscape is rapidly evolving, with China leading the charge. According to a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/09/40886450/50-of-new-car-sales-in-china-are-electric-but-in-the-us-its-only-10-are-protectionist-policies-widen">repo</a>r<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/09/40886450/50-of-new-car-sales-in-china-are-electric-but-in-the-us-its-only-10-are-protectionist-policies-widen">t</a>&nbsp;from September, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/09/40886450/50-of-new-car-sales-in-china-are-electric-but-in-the-us-its-only-10-are-protectionist-policies-widen">50% of new car sales</a> in China are electric, compared to just 10% in the U.S. This disparity highlights the impact of protectionist policies, such as the Biden administration&#8217;s recent tariffs on Chinese goods, including a 100% tax on electric vehicles.
In November, China escalated its trade dispute with the European Union by<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41754367/china-escalates-trade-dispute-lodges-complaint-with-wto-over-european-ev-tariffs"> lodging a formal complaint</a> with the World Trade Organization over the EU&#8217;s tariffs on Chinese-made EVs. The EU&#8217;s decision to impose tariffs of up to 35% on Chinese EVs was seen as a response to perceived unfair business practices.
Meanwhile, BYD expects it would surpass Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39617169/byd-set-to-surpass-tesla-in-bev-sales-by-2024-as-china-leads-global-market-growth-report">BEV sales by 2024,</a> fueled by a 21% increase in EV sales and strong market projections in China.

'Godfather Of EVs' Warns Against Hybrid Focus As China Leads EV Race: 'Tariffs Just Make Indigenous Industry Lazy'

Japanese auto giant Toyota Motor Corp&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) Toyota and Lexus brand vehicle sales in North America rose 4.1% year-on-year in November to 241,662 units even as production in the region was more or less flat as compared to the corresponding period last year.
What Happened: Toyota and Lexus vehicle sales in North America were up year-on-year due to the strong customer turnout at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42254975/shoppers-spent-11-3m-per-minute-online-on-black-friday">stores on Black Friday</a> after the presidential election, the company said. 
Sales rose 4.8% to 207,226 units in the U.S., including Hawaii, and by about 16% in Mexico to make up for the 8% drop in sales in Canada. From the start of 2024, Toyota has sold nearly 2.5 million vehicles in North America as of November end, marking a growth of 5.4% as compared to the first 11 months of 2023. 
Vehicle production, however, dwindled around the same levels as in November last year.
172,867 Toyota and Lexus vehicles were produced in North America in November, marking a drop of 0.8% as compared to Nov. 2023. Production dropped by nearly 12% in the U.S. alone. 
Why It Matters: Worldwide sales of Toyota vehicles, including its Lexus brand, rose 1.7% to 920,569 units in November. The 3.2% rise in sales outside of Japan made up for the company&#8217;s 6.6% drop in sales within its home ground. 
438,261 of the company&#8217;s sales in November were electrified, meaning they were hybrids, plug-in hybrids, battery electric vehicles, or mild hybrids. In North America alone, the company sold 114,831 electrified vehicles, marking a growth of 44% from November last year.
Overall vehicle production, however, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42678492/toyotas-global-output-slips-6-2-while-company-donates-1-million-to-trumps-inaugural-fund">dropped 6.2% year-on-year in November</a>, marking ten consecutive months of production drop. Production fell by a steep 9.3% in Japan and by 4.6% outside the country.

Toyota, Lexus See November Sales Soar Over 4% In North America, Boosted By Black Friday Frenzy

As Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) shares closed above the $140 level for the first time in 20 days on Tuesday, traders expect the stock to make new highs if it breaches $145 per share.
What Happened: Traders are bullish on Nvidia as its share price exceeded the 50-day simple moving average and moves above $140 apiece for the first time since Dec. 6, on Tuesday&#8217;s shortened trading session. According to a quant trader, Peter DiCarlo, the share price could reach $170 apiece in the first quarter if the stock moves beyond $145 per share.
However, he adds &#8220;If we reject and this is a trap, price will sell off to $120. That will then be the confirmed bottom before the next move up to $170 in Q2.&#8221;

The technical analysis of daily moving averages indicates a strong bullish trend
The stock ended at $140.22 apiece on Tuesday. This was above its eight and 20-day simple moving averages, of $133.85 and $137.17, respectively. As per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data, its current stock price was also higher than the 50-day moving average of $139.76 and its 200-day moving average of $116.91.
This implies that the stock is in an uptrend. On the other hand, the relative strength index of 54.12 suggests the stock&#8217;s movement is moderately strong and it is not yet in an overbought zone.

Why It Matters: Earlier last week, Jim Cramer <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42527159/nvidia-technical-analysis-flashes-warning-as-nvda-stock-slips-below-key-moving-averages-but-analysts-still-see-18-11-upside-heres-more">warned</a> of a potential market correction for Nvidia on <a href="https://x.com/jimcramer/status/1868721912303829094">X</a>, citing its recent surge and lack of a &#8220;crescendo moment.&#8221; He predicted a &#8220;vicious&#8221; and &#8220;fast&#8221; reversal. This comes as Nvidia faces an antitrust investigation in China over its 2020 acquisition of Mellanox Technologies. 
TF Securities&nbsp;analyst&nbsp;Ming-Chi Kuo&nbsp;expects the investigation to remain unresolved in the near term, drawing parallels to&nbsp;Qualcomm Inc‘s&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>)&nbsp;15-month&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/12/42404352/nvidia-china-antitrust-probe-may-remain-unsolved-in-near-term-says-top-analyst-investors-should-be-prepared-for-increased-scrutiny" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">antitrust case in China</a>.
Price Action: Shares of Nvidia are up 4.84% over the last five days and 191.09% on a year-to-date basis, outperforming the Nasdaq 100, which was down 0.83% in the last five days and up 31.67% over the year.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com">Benzinga</a>, Nvidia has a consensus price target of $170.56 based on the ratings of 40 analysts. The highest price target out of all the analysts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NVDA/analyst-ratings">tracked </a>by Benzinga is $220 issued by Rosenblatt as of Nov. 21, 2024. The lowest target price is $120 issued by New Street Research on Aug. 6, 2024.
The average price target of $154.67 between DA Davidson, Phillip Securities, and Truist Securities implies a 10.67% upside for Nvidia.

NVDA Could Go Up To $170 In Q1 After Breaching $145 Level As Traders Turn Bullish On Jensen Huang's AI Giant

Stephen Chen, CEO of&nbsp;Phunware Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PHUN#NASDAQ">PHUN</a>), has outlined ambitious plans for the company&#8217;s global expansion, leveraging its established ties with President-elect&nbsp;Donald Trump.
In an exclusive chat with <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga</a>, Chen spoke about the company&#8217;s ongoing relationship with President-elect Donald Trump.
Phunware&#8217;s stock has been notably volatile this year, largely influenced by Trump&#8217;s presidential campaign. The company has been linked to Trump since 2020 when it developed and managed his reelection campaign mobile app.
Chen expressed satisfaction with the partnership, noting that Phunware has been refining its products and is now prepared to support a variety of campaigns and advocacy projects.
He emphasized the company&#8217;s versatility, highlighting its voter engagement platform and potential benefits beyond the campaign trail.

Looking ahead, Chen revealed plans to leverage Phunware&#8217;s engagement platform for local, regional, and international campaigns. 
He stated, &#8220;Helping elected figures and the&nbsp;public doesn&#8217;t end on election day, as there are local, regional, and even overseas campaigns we can help,&#8221; indicating a focus on expanding their technology&#8217;s application.
Regarding future collaborations with Trump or the Republican party, Chen remained non-committal but confident in Phunware&#8217;s ability to provide robust engagement solutions for political groups across the spectrum.

Trump Linked Phunware CEO Charts 'Overseas' Plans As President Elect Makes White House Comeback: 'Helping Elected Figures… Doesn't End On Election Day'

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) executive Tom Zhu on Wednesday said that the company&#8217;s &#8220;unique&#8221; strength lies in developing manufacturing capabilities at a ramped-up pace. 
What Happened: &#8220;Many people underestimate Tesla's unique strength: developing manufacturing capabilities optimized for the fast-evolving AI era,&#8221; Zhu said in a post on X. 
Zhu added that once the automotive industry transitions to fully autonomous driving, &#8220;real competition will center on how efficiently vehicles can be produced.&#8221; &#8220;We will be ready,&#8221; the Senior Vice President of Automotive at Tesla added.
Zhu&#8217;s comments refer to the speed of construction of Tesla&#8217;s megafactory in Shanghai. The company started official construction of the factory in May. The company is finishing construction fast to ship megapacks from it in Q1 2025.

Why It Matters: The Tesla Shanghai megafactory is the company's first factory dedicated to the production of energy storage products outside the U.S.&nbsp;Currently, Tesla has only one other factory dedicated to manufacturing megapacks, located in Lathrop, California. The Lathrop facility has the capability of producing 40 GWh of energy storage products.
Tesla also has another factory in China called Giga Shanghai which produces the company's popular Model 3 sedans and Model Y SUVs. The company began construction of the factory in January 2019 and it became operational by the end of the year. 
In the third quarter, which ended in September, Tesla manufactured 469,796 electric vehicles at its factories around the globe. The company is now planning to start production of its two-seater dedicated robotaxi product <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/12/42548657/tesla-design-chief-says-ev-giant-was-looking-to-create-future-version-of-nycs-yellow-cabs-with-gold-cybercab-it-feels-right">called Cybercab &#8220;before 2027.&#8221;</a>
