Billionaire business tycoon Mark Cuban has expressed his dissatisfaction with the Democratic Party&#8217;s salesmanship.
What Happened: Cuban, a supporter of then-Vice President Kamala Harris in the last election, voiced his disappointment over the Democrats&#8217; performance in an interaction on Saturday.
He pinpointed the party&#8217;s failure to effectively communicate their message as a significant reason for their defeat in the White House and Senate races, and the Republicans&#8217; success in retaining the House majority.
Cuban shared his experiences as a spokesperson for Harris&#8217;s campaign. He criticized the Biden administration&#8217;s approach to several issues, notably immigration, labeling it as &#8220;awful.&#8221;
Despite his criticisms, Cuban attributed the Democrats&#8217; November losses to inadequate salesmanship. He compared this to President Donald Trump&#8216;s knack for selling a winning message, despite his own criticisms of Trump.

"It was kind of fun actually. I learned that the Democrats can't sell worth shit. And they're so, you know, persnickety about every little detail and that's why the Republicans at the presidential level — I don't want to say kicked their ass because it wasn't a runaway, but like I said, Donald Trump can sell. If you gave the Democrats a dollar bill and said, you can sell these for 50 cents, they would hire 50 people to decide how to do it and then would not know how to sell a dollar bill for 50 cents,&#8221; Cuban said. 
&#8220;If you gave it to Donald Trump and said sell this dollar bill for two dollars, he'd figure out a way. He'd tell you that two dollar bill is huge, it'll get you gold tennis shoes, it'll get you a Trump meme coin. That's the problem and that's what I learned,&#8221; Cuban added. 
When asked about possibility of a presidential run, Cuban emphatically stated, &#8220;Hell&nbsp;no. No. No. No, it's&nbsp;not going to happen.&#8221;
Why It Matters: Cuban&#8217;s critique of the Democrats&#8217; salesmanship underscores the party&#8217;s struggle to effectively communicate their message to voters. 
This has been a recurring issue, leading to significant losses in recent elections. 
Cuban&#8217;s comments also highlight the importance of effective communication and salesmanship in politics, a factor that has played a significant role in shaping the political landscape.

Mark Cuban Criticizes Democrats, Says They Fail at Selling Their Message

Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev recently expressed the company&#8217;s commitment toward prediction markets, stating that they are poised to shape the future of trading and information.
What Happened: Tenev, during an&nbsp;episode of &#8220;Hard Fork,&#8221; a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/podcasts/hardfork-grok-robinhood.html">podcast</a> by The New York Times, shared his belief in the potential of prediction markets. Tenev, who has a net worth of over $3 billion, explained the distinction between prediction markets, sports betting, and traditional news models.
&#8220;Prediction&nbsp;markets are the future of&nbsp;not just trading, but also&nbsp;information,&#8221; Tenev stated. He further elaborated that prediction markets, which involve wagers on the outcomes of future events, could potentially deliver news faster than traditional models. 
&nbsp;&#8220;I&#8217;ve been a big believer in the power of prediction markets for a long time — kind of a student of them — and I think prediction markets should be live for everything,&#8221; he added. 
He also suggested that the economic value of prediction markets could surpass that of news after the event.

Robinhood had previously seen&nbsp;success with its prediction market&nbsp;for the 2024 presidential election. The platform also introduced&nbsp;Super Bowl event contracts earlier&nbsp;this month, but had to pause the rollout following&nbsp;a request from the US&nbsp;Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
In a recent earnings call, Tenev underscored the potential of prediction markets for Robinhood&#8217;s business, stating,&nbsp;&#8220;We had over half a&nbsp;billion contracts traded in right&nbsp;around a week leading up&nbsp;to the election&#8230;&nbsp;what you should expect from&nbsp;us is a comprehensive events&nbsp;platform that will give access&nbsp;to prediction markets across a&nbsp;wide variety of contracts later&nbsp;this year.&#8221;
Why It Matters: The commitment to prediction markets by Robinhood signifies a shift in the trading landscape. 
As Tenev pointed out, these markets could potentially provide faster and more economically valuable information than traditional news models. 
With Robinhood&#8217;s previous success in the 2024 presidential election prediction market and plans for a comprehensive events platform, the company seems to be positioning itself at the forefront of this emerging trend in trading.

Renowned YouTuber MrBeast has disclosed a massive financial loss amounting to &#8220;tens of millions of dollars&#8221; from the production of his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/23/05/32297538/mrbeast-invades-suburbia-buys-neighborhood-cul-de-sac-to-create-ultimate-friend-zone">Amazon Prime Video series, &#8220;Beast Games.&#8221;</a>
What Happened: In a recent podcast, MrBeast, also known as Jimmy Donaldson, confessed to the financial loss. 
Despite the fact that &#8220;Beast Games&#8221; was one of Amazon&#8217;s most successful series debuts in 2024, Donaldson labeled the decision to create it as&nbsp;&#8220;not a good financial decision.&#8221;
The reality show, consisting of 10 episodes and offering contestants the opportunity to win $5 million cash prizes, garnered over 50 million viewers within its first 25 days. However, the high production costs led to significant losses for Donaldson. He disclosed that the sets for just&nbsp;the first two episodes cost&nbsp;more than $29 million.
During the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjrJ2DJN_pA&amp;ab_channel=TheDiaryOfACEO">podcast</a>, Donaldson confirmed that the total production cost surpassed $100 million. Despite the financial setback, he expressed no regrets, underlining his dedication to creating high-quality content for the YouTube community and his apprehension about disappointing them.
&#8220;I lost a ton of money filming the show, so that came out of my pocket,&#8221; he said. 
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/02/43766653/mrbeasts-beast-games-wraps-up-first-season-heres-how-much-money-players-won">MrBeast&#8217;s Beast Games Wraps Up First Season &#8211; Here&#8217;s How Much Money Players Won</a>
&#8220;I lost tens of millions of dollars on that show. I&#8217;m an idiot,&#8221; he said adding that the sets on the first two episodes cost more than $29 million together.
In the same conversation, Donaldson also touched upon his personal finances, stating&nbsp;that he had &#8220;less than&nbsp;a million dollars&#8221; in his&nbsp;bank account, even though he boasts over&nbsp;365 million subscribers on YouTube.
&#8220;For me, it was about making season one as good as possible. I can&#8217;t let the YouTube community down because creators don&#8217;t have a good rep when it comes to doing stuff on streaming platforms. If I fail, it&#8217;s over; no streaming platform is ever gonna touch a YouTuber ever again,&#8221; he added.
Talking about his mental health, he said, &#8220;There&#8217;s definitely times where I would cry. But if my mental health was a priority, I wouldn&#8217;t be as successful as I am.&#8221;
&#8220;This is the life I chose. You want success, you want to change the world, you want to do this. And this is the price you have to pay,&#8221; he added. 
Why It Matters: This incident underscores the high costs associated with producing quality content, even for successful YouTubers like MrBeast. Despite the financial loss, 
Donaldson&#8217;s commitment to his audience and the quality of his content remains unwavering. This could potentially influence other content creators&#8217; decisions regarding the production of high-budget projects, highlighting the balance between financial investment and audience engagement.

MrBeast Calls His Amazon Deal for 'Beast Games' a Financial Mistake: 'This Is the Price You Have to Pay'

Friedrich Merz of the conservative CDU is likely to become Germany's new chancellor, according to exit polls from Sunday's elections. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/eurozone/25/01/42920583/musk-supports-german-afd-party-as-remedy-for-faltering-economy">far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD)</a> finished second.
What Happened: <a href="https://www.reuters.com/graphics/GERMANY-ELECTION/RESULTS/movaynkgova/">Reuters</a> reports that the first exit polls show the conservative CDU/CSU bloc taking about 28% of the vote. The AfD is on track to finish with about 20% of the vote.
Current Chancellor Olaf Scholz's Social Democratic Party (SPD) is running third, with about 16%, which would be its worst showing in decades. The Greens have about 13% of the vote, with several other parties dividing the remainder.
Despite the CDU/CSU bloc&#8217;s comfortable lead, Germany may face months of political uncertainty as the party will need to form a coalition to secure a majority.
The conservative bloc, composed of the Christian Democrats (CDU) and its Bavarian sister party the Christian Social Union, stands for low taxes, budget discipline, conservative-liberal values, and a strong role for Germany within the European Union and NATO.
The AfD, established as an anti-euro party in 2013, has evolved into an anti-immigrant grouping with some radical far-right members. Its leader, Alice Weidel, recently received support from the new U.S. administration, including a meeting with U.S. Vice President JD Vance and an endorsement from Elon Musk.
Why It Matters: The election results could have significant implications for Germany&#8217;s economy and its stance on immigration. The AfD&#8217;s surge in popularity is notable, particularly given its anti-immigrant stance and the recent endorsement from Elon Musk.
The election could also impact the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/25/02/43886450/germanys-2025-election-could-make-or-break-cannabis-legalization-heres-where-key-parties-stand">future of cannabis legalization in Germany</a>. The SPD has been supportive of cannabis legalization. The conservatives&#8217; potential victory could change the course of this policy.

Merz on Track To Lead Germany Following Sunday Election, Far-Right AfD Takes 20% of Vote

When deciding between buying a home or investing in a business, financial stability plays a crucial role. That's exactly the dilemma Casey from Lexington, Kentucky, presented on a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrV8wCxBC78&amp;t=769s">recent episode</a> of "The Ramsey Show" with hosts George Kamel and Ken Coleman.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Dilemma: Homeownership vs. Business Expansion</h2>
Casey and her husband are working through Baby Step 3, which in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43768530/should-married-couples-split-expenses-dave-ramsey-says-no-youre-married-not-roommates">Dave Ramsey</a>'s framework means they're building a fully funded emergency fund of three to six months' worth of expenses. Once they complete this step, they're debating between purchasing a home or putting money into expanding Casey's husband's restaurant business.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund">7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it</a>?</li>

</ul>
While the business is already established, Casey explains that her husband currently has partners and wants to eventually open his own restaurant. However, their financial situation raises concerns. Their household income varies significantly, with Casey's husband earning around $35,000 to $40,000 annually before taxes. Additionally, Casey stays home to homeschool their children, meaning their financial situation relies solely on her husband's earnings.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Ramsey Show's Advice</h2>
Kamel and Coleman strongly advised against <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41304880/should-i-buy-a-225k-business-or-grow-my-30k-side-hustle-dave-ramsey-weighs-in">investing in a new business</a> at this stage. The restaurant industry is known for its high risk, and they emphasized the importance of financial stability before taking on even more.
"There is immense risk in starting a restaurant," Kamel cautioned. Coleman reinforced the idea of patience, advising Casey's husband to focus on his current business, learn from his experiences, and ensure financial stability before making a major move. He quoted an old saying: "If you chase two rabbits, you lose them both."

When it comes to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/11/41876775/u-s-homebuyers-are-now-56-on-average-as-younger-generations-struggle-with-wildly-unaffordable-market-housing-expert-warns">homeownership</a>, the hosts initially agreed that buying a home should be the next goal after completing Baby Step 3. They called this "Baby Step 3B" in Ramsey's plan—saving aggressively for a down payment before moving on to investing in retirement.
However, after learning about the couple's income, their concerns about income stability led to a key point: homeownership may not be a wise decision at this stage either. Coleman pointed out that Casey's husband's income isn't high enough to comfortably afford a mortgage, warning that an unexpected downturn in the business could leave them financially vulnerable. "I would not be in any hurry to get in a house at all," he stressed.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Priority: Increasing Income</h2>
Ultimately, the hosts agreed that before considering either homeownership or business expansion, Casey's husband needs to focus on increasing his income.
"We've got to delay the business dream," Kamel said. "The income is a crisis at this point."&nbsp;

Coleman went even further, suggesting that Casey's husband could potentially earn more working elsewhere. "My goodness, he could make more working at Walmart," he said, highlighting that even a retail job could provide better financial stability at this stage.
While Casey and her husband are eager to build a future, "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43758999/the-idea-that-youre-going-to-tax-corporate-america-is-mythology-dave-ramsey-says-the-consumer-always-pays">The Ramsey Show</a>" hosts made it clear: neither buying a house nor expanding the business is a good idea right now. Instead, they encouraged them to focus on increasing their income, stabilizing their financial situation, and then working toward homeownership. Only after achieving financial security should they consider investing in a new business venture.
For those facing a similar dilemma, Kamel and Coleman's key takeaway is simple: financial stability comes first. Ensuring a steady, sufficient income lays the foundation for smart, long-term financial decisions.

'Should We Buy A House Or Invest In Our Restaurant Business?' The Ramsey Show Weighs In

Investor Chris Camillo has transformed a modest sum of $84,000 into a whopping $42 million over a span of 15 years, leveraging a unique investment strategy known as social arbitrage.
What Happened: Camillo&#8217;s strategy is centered around spotting investment opportunities by monitoring social media platforms and making early investments. His nearly 15-year track record from 2006 to 2020 boasts an average 77% annual compounded return, as confirmed by trading expert Jack D. Schwager.
According to a report <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/stock-market-trading-strategies-social-arbitrage-chris-camillo-bets-picks-2021-8">by </a>Insider, Schwager audited and wrote about Camillo and others in his book &#8220;Unknown Market Wizards: The Best Traders You&#8217;ve Never Heard Of.&#8220;
Breaking away from traditional investors, Camillo doesn&#8217;t depend on company earnings reports or Wall Street analysts. He instead utilizes platforms like TikTok, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram to identify trends and investment opportunities, while also keeping a keen eye on the everyday world.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/12/42497173/investment-guru-peter-lynch-if-you-cant-explain-to-an-11-year-old-in-2-minutes-or-less-why-you-own-the-stock-you-shouldnt-own-it">Investment Guru Peter Lynch: &#8216;If You Can&#8217;t Explain To An 11-Year-Old In 2 Minutes Or Less Why You Own The Stock, You Shouldn&#8217;t Own It&#8217;</a>
His remarkable gains, audited and confirmed by Schwager, started with a balance of $84,000 in August 2006. By May 2021, his cumulative profits had skyrocketed to $42 million.
Such performance is deemed rare, as even professional money managers find it challenging to beat the market. In fact,&nbsp;over 86% of US active&nbsp;stock-fund managers failed to outperform the S&amp;P 1500 in the 20 years through 2020.
However, Camillo&#8217;s strategy is not without its risks. Biljana Adebambo, the academic director of the Master of Science in Finance program at the University of San Diego School of Business, highlighted that his approach likely necessitated the use of riskier strategies such as options, which can amplify the volatility of returns and the frequency or severity of losses, reports the outlet. 
Why It Matters: Camillo&#8217;s success story underscores the potential of social arbitrage as an investment strategy. In an era where social media plays a pivotal role in shaping trends, his approach offers a fresh perspective on investment decision-making. 
However, it&#8217;s important to note the inherent risks associated with such a strategy, as pointed out by Adebambo.
Currently, Camillo is committed to educating others on how to leverage social arbitrage. 
He shares his knowledge and insights via his YouTube channel, Dumb Money Live, and engages with a community of social-arb investors on Dumb Money&#8217;s Discord channel.

Chris Camillo Made $42 Million Trading Stocks Over 15 Years, Here's His Success Strategy

In a strategic shift, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has unveiled its latest product, the iPhone 16e, marking its exit from the budget <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43424187/apples-struggles-in-ai-and-ar-indicate-a-loss-in-product-edge">smartphone market</a>.
Bloomberg columnist Mark Gurman in his <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2025-02-23/apple-abandons-budget-phones-inside-apple-s-modem-m4-macbook-air-launch-timing?srnd=undefined&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">latest</a> weekly "Power On" has shared that Apple&#8217;s new iPhone 16e, priced at $599, is $170 more expensive than its predecessor, the iPhone SE.
This price hike places the iPhone 16e in a different segment, leaving the budget smartphone market to rivals such as&nbsp;Samsung Electronics Co.,&nbsp;Alphabet Inc.&#8216;s Google, and Chinese manufacturers.
Despite lacking some features of the regular iPhone 16, the iPhone 16e offers most of the flagship lineup&#8217;s features for $200 less.

The decision to increase the price of its low-end iPhone comes as Apple&#8217;s China revenue declined by&nbsp;11% and total iPhone sales&nbsp;fell about 1% during the holiday quarter. 
This suggests that Apple is prioritizing profit margins over higher unit sales.
Apple&#8217;s new pricing strategy could potentially impede its customer base expansion in emerging markets like India. However, the company may continue to sell older models in certain markets through carriers without advertising them on its website, a tactic Apple has used in the past.
Along with the iPhone 16e, Apple is also gearing up&nbsp;to launch the M4 MacBook&nbsp;Air and has confirmed&nbsp;that Apple Intelligence is coming&nbsp;to the Vision Pro.

$1.4 Billion Ethereum Stolen In Largest Crypto Hack In History
Cryptocurrency exchange Bybit suffered a major breach on Friday which resulted in the theft of $1.4 billion Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>). The incident is considered the largest cryptocurrency hack in history, surpassing the 2021 Poly Network<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43886224/bybit-founder-confirms-1-4-billion-ethereum-hack-blames-masked-transaction"> hack of $611 million.&nbsp;</a>
The attack, which targeted Bybit&#8217;s Ethereum cold wallet, resulted in the loss of 401,347 ETH ($1.12 billion), 90,376 stETH ($253 million), 15,000 cmETH ($44 million), and 8,000 mETH ($23 million), <a href="https://x.com/OnchainLens/status/1892964703263244377">according</a> to Onchain Lens.

Following the discovery of the theft, Bybit launched a recovery bounty program with a reward of up to 10% of the recovered funds to ethical cyber and network security experts who retrieve any of the stolen assets.
The potential bounty of up to $140 million is one of the largest crypto recovery efforts in history.
&#8220;Within 24 hours of the event, we were overwhelmed with support from some of the best people and organizations in the industry, and we do not take it for granted. We have shared in a dark moment of crypto history, and we&#8217;ve proven we are better than the malicious actors,&#8221; said Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Bybit.
SEC Creates Cyber And Emerging Technologies Unit&nbsp;
The Securities and Exchange Commission on Thursday announced the creation of the Cyber and Emerging Technologies Unit (CETU) to focus on combatting cyber-related misconduct and to protect retail investors in the emerging technologies space.&nbsp;
The CETU, led by Laura D'Allaird, replaces the Crypto Assets and Cyber Unit and employs approximately 30 fraud specialists and attorneys.&nbsp;
"Under Laura's leadership, this new unit will complement the work of the Crypto Task Force led by Commissioner Hester Peirce. Importantly, the new unit will also allow the SEC to deploy enforcement resources judiciously," said Acting Chairman Mark T. Uyeda.&nbsp;
"The unit will not only protect investors but will also facilitate capital formation and market efficiency by clearing the way for innovation to grow. It will root out those seeking to misuse innovation to harm investors and diminish confidence in new technologies," Uyeda said.&nbsp;
The CETU listed the following as high-priority areas of focus:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Fraud committed with the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning</li>
<li>Fraud on social media, the dark web, or false websites </li>
<li>Takeovers of retail brokerage accounts</li>
<li>Fraud involving blockchain technology and crypto assets</li>
<li>Hacking to obtain material nonpublic information</li>
</ul>

Before <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41255752/jeff-bezos-says-all-overnight-success-takes-10-years-amazon-didnt-turn-a-profit-for-almost-a-decade">Jeff Bezos built Amazon</a> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) into a trillion-dollar empire, he had a very specific approach to dating—one that involved a lot of blind dates. His top requirement? The woman had to be resourceful. Not just in the everyday sense, but in a "could-get-him-out-of-a-Third-World-prison" kind of way.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Blind Date Rule</h2>
In a <a href="https://www.wired.com/1999/03/bezos-3/">1999 interview with Wired</a>, Bezos admitted he let his friends set him up before he met MacKenzie Scott at D.E. Shaw, where he served as vice president. "The No. 1 criterion was that I wanted a woman who could get me out of a Third World prison," he said.&nbsp;

<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
<li>The average 401(k) balance soars to a record-breaking high – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/average-401k-balances-soars-to-record-high">Here's how to know if your nest egg is keeping pace.</a></li>
</ul>
His reasoning? "I'm not the kind of person where women say, ‘Oh, look how great he is,' a half hour after meeting me. I'm kind of goofy," he said.
Bezos also said in the interview, "What I really wanted was someone resourceful. But nobody knows what you mean when you say, &#8216;I&#8217;m <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40208629/jeff-bezos-once-said-lifes-too-short-to-hang-out-with-people-who-arent-resourceful-who-are-the-peopl">looking for a resourceful woman</a>.&#8217;&nbsp;
Luckily for Bezos, he didn't need a blind date to meet MacKenzie—he just had to conduct a job interview. In 1993, she applied for a position at D.E. Shaw in New York, and Bezos was the first person to interview her. He hired her as a research associate, and her office ended up right next to his. Listening to his laugh all day, she quickly found herself drawn to him.
"My office was next door to his, and all day long I listened to that fabulous laugh," she <a href="https://www.vogue.com/article/a-novel-perspective-mackenzie-bezos">told Vogue</a> in 2013. "How could you not fall in love with that laugh?"
Trending: The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?
The couple, who share four children —three sons and a daughter— married later that year, long before Bezos became one of the world's richest men. He joked in the same Vogue interview, "I think my wife is resourceful, smart, brainy, and hot, but I had the good fortune of having seen her résumé before I met her, so I knew exactly what her SATs were."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">No Prenup, No Problem—For MacKenzie</h2>
Despite amassing a fortune together, Jeff and MacKenzie never signed a prenup. That made their 2019 divorce one of the most expensive in history. The settlement left MacKenzie with 25% of their Amazon stock—about $36 billion at the time, according to media reports. Instead of hoarding her wealth, she started giving it away at an unprecedented pace.

MacKenzie Scott has since donated more than $19 billion to charities, funding social justice initiatives, education, and human services. Unlike traditional philanthropists, she doesn't micromanage how the money is spent. The typical grant size? $5 million—far beyond the usual $123,000 median seen in major philanthropic studies.
Her no-strings-attached generosity has upended conventional giving, proving that even in divorce, resourcefulness isn't just a trait Bezos admired—it's something Scott has mastered on a whole different level.

Jeff Bezos Let His Friends Set Him Up On Blind Dates—The Top Criterion? A Woman Resourceful Enough to Break Him Out Of A 'Third-World Prison'

Billionaire investor&nbsp;Warren Buffett&nbsp;has addressed concerns regarding the record cash pile of&nbsp;Berkshire Hathaway Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>). 
What Happened: In a <a href="https://www.berkshirehathaway.com/letters/2024ltr.pdf">letter</a> to shareholders on Saturday, Buffett reassured of his commitment to owning businesses, amidst the company&#8217;s cash reserves reaching an all-time high due to a lack of major acquisitions and a sell-off of stocks.
The 94-year-old investor&#8217;s&nbsp;decision to address the cash&nbsp;pile, which stood at $334.2 billion&nbsp;at the end of last&nbsp;year, comes amid record valuations that have made US stocks less appealing and made it difficult for Buffett to find major deals.
Buffett assured shareholders that&nbsp;a substantial majority of their&nbsp;money would be deployed in equities, primarily American, many of which have significant international operations. 
"Berkshire shareholders can rest assured that we will forever deploy a substantial majority of their money in equities — mostly American equities although many of these will have international operations of significance," Buffett said. 
This statement was released alongside Berkshire&#8217;s Q4 results, which showed a $9 billion increase in the cash pile as Buffett reduced stakes in stocks, including significant&nbsp;sales of shares in Citigroup&nbsp;and Bank of America.

Over the past year, the company&#8217;s cash pile has nearly doubled as it reinvested the proceeds from stock sales,&nbsp;including tens of billions of&nbsp;dollars&#8217;&nbsp;worth of shares in Apple, into Treasury bills.
"We were aided by a predictable large gain in investment income as Treasury Bill yields improved and we substantially increased our holdings of these highly liquid short-term securities," Buffett added in his letter.
"Paper money can see its value evaporate if fiscal folly prevails. In some countries, this reckless practice has become habitual, and, in our country's short history, the US has come close to the edge. Fixed-coupon bonds provide no protection against runaway currency," Buffet shared. 
Why It Matters: Buffett&#8217;s reassurance comes at a crucial time when the company&#8217;s cash reserves have reached an all-time high due to a lack of major acquisitions and a sell-off of stocks. 
The investor&#8217;s commitment to owning businesses and preference for &#8220;ownership of good businesses&#8221; over cash-equivalent assets is a strong message to shareholders about the company&#8217;s investment strategy.

Pony AI, Celsius And WeRide Are Among Top 9 Mid Cap Gainers Last Week (Feb 17-Feb 21): Are The Others In Your Portfolio?

The rise of cryptocurrencies and the new administration&#8217;s friendliness <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43889897/bitcoin-strategic-reserve-with-1-million-btc-could-offset-21-trillion-national-debt">toward digital assets</a> have left advisors deeply conflicted about the asset class, a new survey by CoinShares reveals.
On the one hand, 62% of advisors say recommending Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies goes against their fiduciary duties, and half think doing so would make colleagues think less of them. 
On the other hand, 85% of advisors say their firm&#8217;s views on digital assets have changed since President Donald Trump won re-election, and 79% agree that, with more and more clients putting money into cryptocurrencies, the role of advisors is becoming to manage the risk that poses for clients.
Squaring this circle will require more information and education about digital assets. Over 80% of surveyed advisors were willing to spend money on cryptocurrency education but wanted that information to be independent. That excludes crypto exchanges, while many &#8220;crypto-native&#8221; educational resources are difficult to access for those unfamiliar with the space.
By the way, for independent news on all things cryptocurrency and digital assets, check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto">Benzinga&#8217;s own crypto news right here</a>.

In addition to education, new regulations seem set to improve advisors&#8217; views on digital assets. In the CoinShares survey, 88% of advisors said the SEC&#8217;s recent approval of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs made them more positive about cryptocurrencies, and almost two-thirds said SEC approval was in the top three factors that most determined whether they felt it was appropriate to recommend cryptocurrency investments.
The new administration&#8217;s much more crypto-friendly stance suggests the SEC will be approving more digital asset funds, and faster, giving advisors a wider variety of options to choose from when building cryptocurrency portfolios for their clients.
Given these trends and the rising demand for cryptocurrencies—particularly among younger investors whom advisors must attract to grow their businesses—advisors can get ahead by exploring digital assets now. By understanding the strengths and risks of this expanding market, they can position themselves ahead of the competition.
To see how one prominent, crypto-focused advisor handles this, check out Benzinga&#8217;s interview series with him <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/24/12/42470479/financial-advisor-calls-stocks-dinosaur-bones-but-likes-some-etfs">here</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/24/12/42517262/most-crypto-foward-ria-slams-bitcoin-forecasts-from-michael-saylor-others-dis">here</a>.

Michael Wolff&#8216;s new book promises to reveal previously undisclosed secrets about President Donald Trump, offering a fresh perspective on his life and political career.
What Happened: Wolff&#8217;s latest book uncovers 10 previously unknown facts about Trump. The book, All or Nothing: How Trump Recaptured America, provides an in-depth look into Trump&#8217;s life, revealing aspects that were previously unknown to the public.
According to a report <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/the-10-trump-secrets-you-never-knew-from-michael-wolff-book/">by</a> The Daily Beast, Wolff details Trump's unconventional decision-making, campaign struggles, and even speculation about his health.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Wanted a Fox News Woman as VP — But Elon Musk Had Other Ideas</h3>
Wolff claims that Trump initially favored a female running mate in 2024, with Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo and Fox News' Harris Faulkner among his top choices. However, Elon Musk reportedly told Trump that his backing was conditional on selecting then-Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) as his running mate.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump's Sweet Tooth and Alleged Ozempic Use</h3>
The book describes Trump indulging in candy as his "poison" of choice, filling up on Starbursts, Hershey's Miniatures, Laffy Taffy, and Tootsie Rolls. Meanwhile, insiders at Mar-a-Lago speculated he was using Ozempic or a similar weight-loss drug.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Melania's Whereabouts Remained a Mystery</h3>
Even Trump's campaign staff reportedly had no idea where Melania Trump was residing during the campaign. Wolff suggests their marriage was either uniquely successful or on the verge of collapse.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump's Mental State After Assassination Attempt</h3>
Following a failed assassination attempt in Pennsylvania, Wolff claims Trump appeared disoriented and struggled to complete sentences. He reportedly forgot names, took wrong turns, and exhibited fits of rage that seemed beyond his usual temperament.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Fear of Dying on Epstein's Plane</h3>
While flying to Colorado on a backup aircraft after &#8220;Trump Force One&#8221; experienced issues, turbulence led Trump to panic, allegedly exclaiming, "I'm going to die on Jeffrey Epstein's plane!"
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43900927/mary-trump-slams-uncle-trump-and-his-corrupt-fascist-regime-are-aligned-with-the-agenda-of-vladimir-putin-and-moscow">Mary Trump Slams Uncle: &#8216;Trump and His Corrupt Fascist Regime Are Aligned With the Agenda of Vladimir Putin and Moscow&#8217;</a>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Golf Course Tweets and Protest Incitement</h3>
Wolff writes that aide Natalie Harp followed Trump around his Bedminster golf course with a portable printer to keep his social media activity flowing. He also alleges that Trump falsely claimed he would be arrested in the Stormy Daniels case to provoke protests.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump's Reaction to Elon Musk's Rally Behavior</h3>
During a campaign stop in Butler, Pennsylvania, Musk's erratic movements reportedly left Trump baffled. "What the f&#8212; is wrong with this guy? And why doesn't his shirt fit?" Trump allegedly said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Conspiracy Theories on Biden's Debate Performance</h3>
Wolff claims Trump believed Democrats set up President Joe Biden&#8216;s disastrous performance in their one 2024 debate, believing it to have been a scheme to push Biden out of the race.
Why It Matters: This book could potentially shed new light on Trump&#8217;s time in office and his personal life, which have been the subject of intense scrutiny and speculation. 
The undisclosed secrets could provide a fresh perspective on Trump&#8217;s presidency and his business dealings, potentially influencing public opinion and sparking further debates about his legacy.
Given Wolff&#8217;s reputation as a seasoned author, the book is expected to be a comprehensive and insightful account of Trump&#8217;s life and career. 
The revelations could also have implications for future political discourse and Trump&#8217;s potential future endeavors in politics and business.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Role of AI In Creating The First Trillionaire</h2>
Fast forward to today, and Cuban's prediction is looking more accurate than ever. AI is no longer a futuristic concept—it's part of everyday life, changing the way industries operate.&nbsp;
The AI sector is valued at $214.6 billion and is expected to soar to $1,339.1 billion by 2030, growing at a 35.7% annual rate, <a href="https://www.marketsandmarkets.com/PressReleases/artificial-intelligence.asp">according to MarketsAndMarket.com</a>.&nbsp; Nearly half (49%) of businesses already use AI in some form, and that number is only going to increase, <a href="https://www.pwc.com/us/en/tech-effect/ai-analytics/ai-predictions.html">PWC said recently</a>.&nbsp;
The potential for AI to create extreme wealth is becoming clearer. <a href="https://www.goldmansachs.com/insights/articles/generative-ai-could-raise-global-gdp-by-7-percent">Goldman Sachs has predicted reports</a> that AI could increase the global economy's GDP by 7%—or nearly $7 trillion—over the next decade. Given these numbers, Cuban's argument that AI mastery could create the first trillionaire makes a lot of sense.
Trending: ‘Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">You can invest today for just $0.26/share with a $1000 minimum.</a>
Musk, for his part, is heavily invested in AI through Tesla's Full Self-Driving software, Neuralink, and xAI. But Cuban doesn't believe Musk—or even Amazon's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Jeff Bezos—will be the first to hit a trillion dollars. Instead, he thinks it will be someone who approaches AI from a completely different angle.
"It could be someone who studied philosophy to better understand and solve complicated problems within human nature," Cuban suggested.&nbsp;
Musk's road to trillionaire status also isn't as straightforward as it might seem. His fortune is tied closely to Tesla's stock, which has seen major swings, dropping 27% since its December peak. <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-10/musk-s-net-worth-falls-below-400-billion-for-first-time-in-2025">Bloomberg has reported </a>that this volatility makes it difficult for Musk to hold onto his top spot, let alone climb to $1 trillion.
Meanwhile, AI is accelerating at a breakneck pace. In 2024, venture capitalists poured over $50 billion into AI startups, CB Insights said last month.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
Industry giants like Google (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), and OpenAI are leading the charge, making AI one of the most competitive and fast-moving sectors. <a href="https://www.mckinsey.com/mgi/our-research/generative-ai-and-the-future-of-work-in-america">According to McKinsey</a>, AI-driven automation could replace up to 30% of today's job functions by 2030, shifting how industries operate and creating entirely new markets.
Cuban's advice? Keep learning. He believes that staying ahead of AI developments is the best way to remain competitive in the future job market.&nbsp;

Consumer Tech News (Feb 17-Feb 21): Mexico Warns Alphabet Over Naming of the "Gulf of Mexico" On Maps, Apple Launches iPhone 16E & More

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has taken over creative control of the James Bond franchise, with his streaming service now in charge of the legendary British spy series.
What Happened: Bezos took to social media to ask for public opinion on who should be the next James Bond. British actor Henry Cavill emerged as the clear favorite. Cavill, who has starred in &#8220;Mission: Impossible — Fallout,&#8221; &#8220;The Man from U.N.C.L.E.,&#8221; and &#8220;Argylle,&#8221; outperformed other candidates such as Tom Hardy, Tom Hiddleston, Theo James, and Michael Fassbender.
Support for Cavill came from various corners, including Dogecoin creator Billy Markus and Tesla CEO Elon Musk. Bezos, however, has not yet responded to the suggestions.
Amazon&#8217;s purchase of MGM Studios for $8.5 billion allowed it to enter the Bond franchise, but until now, creative direction was still in the hands of the Broccoli family.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Who'd you pick as the next Bond? <a href="https://t.co/u7nBaRROlf">pic.twitter.com/u7nBaRROlf</a>
&mdash; Jeff Bezos (@JeffBezos) <a href="https://twitter.com/JeffBezos/status/1892590064766484622?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 20, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
While Cavill&#8217;s casting is popular, there is concern among fans about how Amazon will handle the franchise. This is due to the company&#8217;s controversial handling&nbsp;of J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle Earth&nbsp;in The Rings of Power series.

The Bond franchise is known for its high-budget set pieces and cinematic universe, and fans worry that Amazon may water this down with its approach.
Why It Matters: This move by Bezos marks a significant shift in the control of the James Bond franchise. The acquisition of MGM Studios by Amazon was a clear indication of the company&#8217;s intent to delve deeper into the entertainment industry. 
However, the change in creative control from the Broccoli family to Bezos could potentially alter the direction of the franchise. The public&#8217;s choice of Cavill as the next James Bond also reflects a desire for continuity in the character&#8217;s portrayal. 
However, Amazon&#8217;s controversial handling of The Rings of Power series has raised concerns about the future of the Bond franchise. This development is a key moment in the evolution of the entertainment industry, as tech giants continue to expand their influence.

Alibaba, Super Micro Computer And XPeng Are Among Top 10 Large Cap Gainers Last Week (Feb 17-Feb 21): Are The Others In Your Portfolio?

The week has been a rollercoaster ride in the tech and automotive sectors. From Rivian&#8217;s new limited-edition vehicle to SpaceX&#8217;s controversial delay, Tesla&#8217;s sales slump, and Nikola&#8217;s bankruptcy, there&#8217;s a lot to unpack. Let&#8217;s dive into the top stories of the week.
Rivian Unveils &#8216;California Dune&#8217; Edition R1&nbsp;
Rivian Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) introduced a limited edition of its R1 electric vehicle, the California Dune, designed specifically for off-road sand driving. The company emphasized that this edition is built for the extreme conditions of the desert.

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk Alleges Political Delay 
Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, claimed that the return of astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore from the International Space Station (ISS) was delayed due to &#8220;political reasons.&#8221; Musk suggested that SpaceX could have brought the astronauts back last year, but the return was pushed past the inauguration date.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/02/43877217/spacex-ceo-elon-musk-pegs-delay-in-returning-sunita-williams-and-butch-wilmore-from-space-station-to-political-reasons">Read the full article here.</a>
Rivian&#8217;s Financial Struggles&nbsp;
Fund Manager Gary Black pointed out that Rivian reported a quarterly gross profit for the first time in Q4, but this was due to the sale of regulatory credits, not cost-cutting. Without this revenue, the company would have lost about $13,000 per vehicle sold in the quarter.

코보(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QRVO#NASDAQ">QRVO</a>)는 화요일 시장 마감 후 제3분기 재무 결과를 발표했다. 이 발표로 주가가 시간외 거래에서 13% 이상 급등했다. 이번 분기의 주요 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/g43286674/qorvo-announces-fiscal-2025-third-quarter-financial-results">수치</a>를 살펴보겠다.
상세 사항: 코보는 분기당 주당 순이익이 $1.61로, 애널리스트 컨센서스 추정치인 $1.20를 초과했다. 분기 매출은 $916.3백만으로, 애널리스트 컨센서스 추정치인 $901.51백만을 초과했다.

"코보는 마진을 확장하고 강력한 잉여 현금 흐름을 생성하며 주주 가치를 증가시키기 위한 광범위한 전략적 이니셔티브를 실행하고 있다. 12월 분기 동안 우리는 매출의 약 50%를 차지하는 가장 큰 고객을 성공적으로 지원했다"고 코보의 사장이자 CEO인 밥 브루게보르트(Bob Bruggeworth)가 말했다.
"안드로이드 5G 제품 포트폴리오 내에서 우리는 고객이 코보의 차별화된 제품을 중요시하는 고급 플래그십 및 프리미엄 계층에 초점을 좁히고 있다. HPA 부문에서는 국방 및 항공 우주 분기 매출이 기록을 경신했으며, 3월 분기에서도 지속적인 강세를 기대한다. 성장 및 다각화 전략을 계속 실행하면서, 우리는 HPA와 CSG가 2025 회계연도와 다음 회계연도에 두 자릿수 성장을 달성할 것으로 예상한다."라고 브루게보르트가 덧붙였다.
전망: 코보는 4분기 매출을 $825백만에서 $875백만 사이로 예상하며, 이는 $841.2백만의 추정치에 비해 높은 수치이다. 조정된 주당 순이익은 $0.90에서 $1.10 사이로 예상되며, 이는 $0.86의 추정치에 비해 높은 수치이다.

다른 트레이더들보다 30분 일찍 시장 움직임에 대한 독점 뉴스를 받아보세요.
Benzinga Pro의 독점 뉴스를 통해 수백만 명의 다른 트레이더보다 더 빠르게 유용한 투자 뉴스를 확인할 수 있습니다. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?t=be2bewe5mibe3bz3&amp;utm_source=bz-kor">여기를 클릭</a>하여 14일 무료 체험을 시작하세요.

행동주의 투자자 스타보드 밸류 LP는 목요일(16일) 코보(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QRVO#NASDAQ">QRVO</a>)의 지분 7.7%를 인수한 것응로 알려졌다. 운영 변경을 위한 잠재적인 타깃으로 부진한 반도체 제조업체를 겨냥한 것이다.
무슨 일 있었나: 월스트리트저널은 소식통을 <a href="https://www.wsj.com/finance/starboard-builds-big-stake-in-chip-maker-qorvo-7a18a71f" target="_blank" rel="noopener">인용해</a> 제프 스미스가 CEO가 이끄는 스타보드의 코보 지분 취득은 코보가 무선 주파수 칩 시장에서 점점 더 많은 도전에 직면하고 있는 가운데 나온 것이라고 보도했다.
노스캐롤라이나주 그린즈버러에 본사를 둔 코보의 주가는 지난 한 해 동안 브로드컴(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>)과 스카이웍스 솔루션스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NASDAQ">SWKS</a>) 같은 경쟁업체와 경쟁이 심화되면서 거의 28% 하락했다.
스타보드의 이번 투자는 2014년 RF 마이크로 디바이스(RF Micro Devices)와 합병하여 코보를 설립하기 전에 트라이퀸트 세미컨덕터(TriQuint Semiconductor)에 투자했던 스타보드가 친숙한 영역으로 복귀하는 것을 의미한다. 스타보드는 엔비디아(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>)와 마벨 테크놀로지(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>)에 대한 이전 투자를 통해 반도체 부문에서 강력한 존재감을 유지해왔다.
코보의 최근 실적은 월가의 예상치를 하회한 후 주가가 폭락하면서 투자자들을 걱정스럽게 만들었다. 그랜트 브라운 CFO는 10월에 프리미엄 스마트폰에 대한 수요 약화를 언급하며 이러한 문제를 인정하고 수익성 개선을 위한 공장 통합 노력을 발표했다.
코보는 벤징가의 논평 요청에 즉시 응답하지 않았다.
왜 중요한가: 현재 약 70억 달러의 가치를 지닌 칩 제조사인 코보는 소비자들이 보급형 안드로이드 기기로 이동함에 따라 시장 지위를 유지하기 위해 고군분투하고 있다.
월가 애널리스트들은 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/QRVO/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">컨센서스 목표주가</a>를 97.65달러로 유지하고 있지만, 최근 골드만삭스, 미즈호, 루프 캐피탈의 평가는 평균 77달러로 다소 완만한 기대치를 제시한다.

스타보드의 코보 투자는 화이자(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>), 켄뷰(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KVUE#NYSE">KVUE</a>), 라이엇 플랫폼스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIOT#NASDAQ">RIOT</a>)에 대한 지분을 포함하는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41419988/tylenol-listerine-maker-kenvue-under-activist-spotlight-with-starboard-value-stake-overhaul-ahea" target="_blank" rel="noopener">최근 일련의 행동주의적 포지션</a>에 추가되는 것이다.
주가 움직임: 코보는 목요일 시간외 거래에서 7.08% 급등한 78.80달러를 기록했다. <a href=""https://www.benzinga.com/pro/"">벤징가 프로 데이터에</a> 따르면 주가는 정규장에서 0.77% 하락한 73.59달러로 마감했으며 지난 1년 동안 27.43% 하락했다.

코보의 CEO인 밥 브루게보르트(Bob Bruggeworth)는 &#8220;9월 분기 동안 ACG는 우리의 가장 큰 고객의 계절적 스마트폰 증산을 성공적으로 지원했다. HPA에서는 D&amp;A 비즈니스를 확장하고 전력 관리 분야에 폭넓은 비즈니스를 구축했다. CSG에서는 Wi-Fi 애플리케이션에서의 리더십을 유지하고 자동차 솔루션 및 초광대역과 매터(Matter)를 위한 SoC 등 다양한 비즈니스로 성장하기 위해 투자했다. HPA와 CSG는 2025 회계연도에 전년 대비 중간 10%대 성장 달성을 목표로 하고 있다&#8221;고 말했다.
전망: 코보는 3분기 조정된 주당 순이익을 1.10~1.30달러로 예상하고 있으며, 예상치인 1.92달러와 매출은 약 9억 달러(± 2500만 달러)로 예상하고 있다. 코보의 CFO인 그랜트 브라운(Grant Brown)은 2025 회계연도 매출과 총 마진이 2024 회계연도 대비 소폭 감소할 것으로 예상한다고 말했다.

6월은 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">섹터 및 산업 성과</a>의 상당한 격차에도 불구하고 SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>)가 추적하는 S&amp;P 500이 3.2% 상승하는 등 주식 시장에서 높은 평가를 받으며 마감되었다.

이와는 대조적으로 유틸리티 부문은 Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLU#NYSE">XLU</a>)가 6.3% 하락해 2023년 9월 이후 최악의 달을 기록하는 등 부진했다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">6월 최고의 성과를 보인 산업 ETF들</h3>
iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IGV#NYSE">IGV</a>)는 지난달 11.3% 상승하여 산업 ETF 중 1위를 차지했다.
이에 뒤이어 VanEck Semiconductor ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NYSE">SMH</a>)가 8.4% 상승하며 반도체 부문에서 강력한 모멘텀을 보여주었다.
VanEck Semiconductor ETF는 2023년 10월 최저치를 기록한 이후 무려 87%, 2022년 10월 이후로는 200% 이상 상승해 AI 중심 주식의 눈부신 성장을 반영했다.
월간 실적 측면에서 3위를 차지한 SPDR S&amp;P Biotech ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XBI#NYSE">XBI</a>)는 4% 상승했다.
