Senator Cantwell Says Federal Aviation Administration Must Address "Critical Concerns" Before Extending Program That Delegates Some Agency Tasks to Boeing -- Letter

Often as we go through life we find the need for mum to be the word.
In 1967 a young Dusitn Hoffman was told in no uncertain terms that Plastics was the word.
According to the 1976 movie Grease was the word.
Today the word is tariff.
Wall Street and old Washington has gotten far more of this word than they expected or wanted since Donald Trump came into office.
Apparently, they thought then candidate Trump was kidding when he talked at length about his plans to use aggressive tariffs to reshape global trade policies bringing in revenue.
I am not a fan of tariffs and can find little historical evidence to suggest that this is a great idea, but I had little doubt that once elected President Trump would follow through on his strategy.
This has created a new equation for Wall Street to follow.
Tariffs announced=Risk off,
Tariffs delayed=Risk On.
One of the administrations' most recent tariff announcement has the potential to create an enormous amount of wealth for investors willing to buy in as&nbsp; stocks impacted by the new fees.
President Trump recently announced plans to impose 25% tariffs on copper imports.
Copper miners have sold off slightly, but I expect this to accelerate as the new taxes are actually implemented in the weeks ahead.
A steeper downturn will be a massive buying opportunity.
Copper is a backbone of the world we live in and has a wide range of uses.
Copper demand is not just growing – it is accelerating from multiple directions simultaneously. The traditional drivers remain intact: construction, manufacturing, and infrastructure in emerging markets like India and Southeast Asia continue to consume massive quantities. But what is really changing the game is the convergence of three unstoppable trends:
<ol start="1">
<li>The Energy Transition: EVs use 2.5-4x more copper than regular cars. Wind turbines? Packed with copper. Solar farms? Same story. Grid upgrades to handle all this new capacity? You guessed it – copper everywhere.</li>
<li>Data Infrastructure: The explosion of AI, data centers, and 5G is creating another copper-hungry monster that few analysts are properly accounting for.</li>
<li>Supply Constraints: Meanwhile, the world&#8217;s biggest copper mines in Chile and Peru are aging, facing lower ore grades, water shortages, and labor disputes. Getting new mines online takes 7-10 years even when everything goes right – which it rarely does.</li>
</ol>
According to multiple industry analyses, we are looking at potential copper deficits by the late 2020s that could hit 5-8 million tonnes annually by 2035. For perspective, the entire global copper market today is only about twenty-six million tons.
This is not just another commodity cycle. It is a structural shift that has copper being called &#8220;the new oil&#8221; for good reason.
Here are the three stocks that have the potential to deliver massive gains for patient aggressive investors :
Freeport-McMoRan (Ticker: FCX) The undisputed king of publicly traded copper producers. FCX boasts a globally diversified portfolio anchored by the legendary Grasberg mine in Indonesia – one of the highest-grade, lowest-cost operations on the planet.
What makes Freeport compelling:
<ul>
<li>Scale and resource depth unmatched among Western miners</li>
<li>Dramatically improved balance sheet with minimal debt</li>
<li>Strategic U.S. assets gaining importance as domestic supply becomes a national security concern</li>
<li>Cash flow machine with both base and variable dividends</li>
</ul>
The underground expansion at Grasberg is a multi-decade growth engine that should deliver high-grade copper at remarkably low costs. Management has shown admirable discipline, focusing on optimizing existing assets rather than splashy, overpriced acquisitions.
Southern Copper (Ticker: SCCO) If you are looking for pure copper leverage with massive reserves, Southern Copper is your play. With over seventy million tons of proven and probable reserves, SCCO has the longest mine life among major copper producers – we are talking decades of production visibility.
The Grupo México-controlled miner operates primarily in Peru and Mexico, with a fully integrated model spanning mining, smelting, and refining. Its growth pipeline could potentially increase production from around 950,000 tons to 1.5 million tons by 2030.
The company&#8217;s cost position is stellar, with copper cash costs typically below $1.00/lb. net of byproducts. This supports EBITDA margins that frequently exceed 50% – exceptional for a mining operation.
The main risk? Political and social license challenges in Peru, where the flagship Tía María project has been delayed for over a decade due to local opposition.
Lundin Mining (TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUN#TSX">LUN</a>, OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUNMF#OTC">LUNMF</a>) For those seeking a mid-tier option with solid upside, Lundin Mining deserves attention. This copper-focused diversified miner offers leverage to copper prices without the extreme market cap of the majors.
Lundin&#8217;s portfolio includes:
<ul>
<li>Candelaria (Chile): A flagship copper-gold mine producing steady cash flow</li>
<li>Chapada (Brazil): A copper-gold operation with expansion potential</li>
<li>Zinkgruvan (Sweden): A long-life zinc-lead-silver mine that adds diversification</li>
<li>Josemaria Project (Argentina): A major copper-gold development that could boost copper output by 30-40%</li>
</ul>
The Lundin family&#8217;s long-term presence ensures alignment with shareholder interests, and the company has a proven track record of value-accretive acquisitions. Its balance sheet remains in good shape, with moderate debt levels and strong cash generation.
The Big Picture Make no mistake: the copper market is not just facing a typical cyclical upturn. The combination of accelerating demand from electrification, green energy, and data infrastructure, coupled with chronic underinvestment in new supply, points to a potential shortage that could make the 2000s commodity supercycle look tame by comparison.
S&amp;P Global has called the coming copper shortage &#8220;unprecedented,&#8221; warning that without significant investments now, the world could face chronic undersupply just as clean energy and digital infrastructure deployment peaks.
Tariffs may hurt profit margins and stock prices in the short run but will not slow demand or magically create new supply.
Buying copper on down days or selling cash secured puts to back into the stocks (the ones that are optional) should be a winning strategy for investors willing to embrace volatility driven by the current word of the day.

Under the Radar: Navigating the Copper Crunch Amidst Tariff Turbulence

Seaport Global analyst Jeff Campbell on Tuesday initiated coverage on BWX Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BWXT#NYSE">BWXT</a>) with a Buy rating and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BWXT/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of&nbsp;$145</a>.
Campbell noted BWX Technologies&#8217; multidecade U.S. Navy nuclear reactor franchise warrants a premium valuation based on the surety of revenues over time and its consistently strong gross margins. The company&#8217;s government division monopolizes U.S. Navy nuclear reactors and the fuel that drives them.
The company&#8217;s decades of good performance and a rising sense of global conflict persuaded Campbell this relationship would remain durable.
The analyst is also impressed with management&#8217;s ability to find value adds in ancillary products and services surrounding the core business.

In addition, Campbell noted commercial businesses in Canada add a growth component that suggests its EBITDA multiple will decline over time due to EBITDA growth. 
The CANDU components and services are proving to be durable. The acquisition of Kinetrics promises to broaden the Canadian manufacturing capability. Ontario will likely put the first commercial SMR in the ground in 2028. 
Although early, the BWRX-300 looks like a potential international franchise SMR with meaningful benefits to BWX Technologies. 
BWXT Medical has consequential growth potential from regulatory approval of its Tc-99 platform and Ac-225, the latter depending on clinical trial results. Early indications are that alpha radiation can be a real game changer in cancer treatment as its damage proves too much for even cancers&#8217; many repair mechanisms to overcome.
The growth potential in its commercial division in power applications and medical radioisotopes shows that &#8220;it is not a one-trick pony,&#8221; says analyst.
It has comprehensive manufacturing capabilities related to nuclear radiation.
In the U.S., it constructs the primary systems for naval nuclear propulsion systems. These units have specific strictures that onshore nuclear facilities do not have to tackle.
Warship nuclear reactors must accommodate battle shock, noise limits, crew proximity to the reactor and frequent, rapid changes in reactor power. They must use highly enriched uranium (HEU) fuel to reduce or eliminate the need for refueling. This increases the corrosion potential within reactors expected to operate for decades without refueling.
BWX Technologies is the only private entity in the U.S. licensed to make the HEU that its reactors require and maintains the scale to fuel the US Navy nuclear fleet. Its skillful HEU manufacture, storage, and handling reduce corrosive potential.
BWX Technologies&#8217; combination of component and fuel capabilities gives it an unassailable monopoly over U.S. Navy nuclear propulsion systems now and in the future.
It has also designed and is constructing a mobile reactor system for the DoD (Project Pele), which is currently in late-stage development.
BWX Technologies&#8217; expertise in small reactors makes it a natural manufacturing candidate for the evolving Small Modular Reactor (SMR) landscape.
BWX Technologies goes big in Canada, building components for large-scale nuclear power generation facilities. It maintains the only heavy component manufacturing facility in NAM.
Its Canadian work is wed to the CANDU heavy water reactor approach. Canada is at the vanguard of maintaining and growing its nuclear fleet. BWX Technologies is essential in providing the components necessary to support this effort.
Like the U.S., BWX Technologies Canada manufactures fuel for CANDU reactors and supports the complete operating requirements of these systems.
The CANDU reactors also support BWX Technologies&#8217; development of radioisotopes with neutron bombardment.
It utilizes Canada&#8217;s TRIUMF cyclotron for proton bombardment. Radionuclides are in high demand and strained supply in both diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
It is a fragmented, high-margin, high-growth industry ripe for further consolidation over time.
Campbell projected first-quarter revenue of $602.1 million and adjusted EPS of $0.60.
BWXT Price Action: BWX Technologies stock is up 0.75% at $99.38 at publication Tuesday.

Looking At Hut 8's Recent Unusual Options Activity

Riot Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIOT#NASDAQ">RIOT</a>) just flashed a major warning signal, officially forming <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/death-cross">a Death Cross</a> as its 50-day simple moving average sank below the 200-day moving average.
While shares jumped 3.93% by early afternoon on Monday, the broader trend remains bearish &#8211; down 29.3% year to date and a 35.5% in the past year.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Bearish Storm Brewing</h2>
Technicals paint a challenging picture for RIOT stock. RIOT stock sits below its five-day, 20-day and 50-day exponential moving averages, reinforcing a strongly bearish trend despite some slight buying pressure.
The eight-day simple moving average at $7.80 and 20-day SMA at $7.84 both signal further weakness, while the 50-day SMA at $9.86 underscores the stock's steep decline. Even the 200-day SMA at $9.94 remains well above RIOT stock&#8217;s current price of $7.04, leaving little room for optimism in the near term.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator at a negative 0.64 also suggests bearish momentum, and with a Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 35.04, RIOT stock is creeping toward oversold territory but isn't quite there yet.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can RIOT Stock Reverse Course?</h2>
While Tuesday's bounce may have offered some relief for bulls, the broader trend remains bearish unless Riot stock can decisively break its downward trajectory. The death cross is a widely followed technical indicator that often signals prolonged weakness, and with Bitcoin's volatility adding another layer of uncertainty, RIOT stock investors may be in for a rough ride.
For now, the trend is not Riot's friend. The question is whether this bounce is the start of a reversal &#8211; or just a brief respite before more pain ahead.

Shares of Bloom Energy Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BE#NYSE">BE</a>) are trading higher Tuesday after the company announced a partnership with Conagra Brands Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAG#NYSE">CAG</a>) to implement fuel cell technology at its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44585627/conagra-embraces-bloom-energys-fuel-cells-to-power-ohio-operations">Ohio production facilities.</a>
What To Know: Bloom Energy and Conagra have signed a 15-year power purchase agreement to deploy approximately six megawatts of fuel cell technology at Conagra's Ohio facilities. 
The project is expected to supply 70% to 75% of the sites' electricity needs while reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 19%. The move aligns with Conagra's 2030 sustainability targets, which include science-based greenhouse gas reductions and have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative.
Bloom Energy's fuel cells generate electricity without combustion, avoiding pollutants like nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide, which are typically produced by traditional power generation. 
Conagra's vice president of sustainability, Christine Daugherty, stated that the initiative supports the company's efforts to modernize its supply chain and reduce its environmental impact.
&#8220;We are committed to channeling our operational efficiency efforts into strategic areas where we can make a significant impact across our production process,&#8221; Daugherty said.
As part of its broader sustainability strategy, Conagra said it established a $9 million Sustainability Capital Allowance program to invest in technologies that improve operational efficiency and minimize environmental footprint.

Bloom Energy Stock Is Rising Tuesday: What's Going On?

BofA Securities analyst Joshua Shanker downgraded W.R. Berkley Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WRB#NYSE">WRB</a>) from Buy to Neutral,<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/WRB/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener"> raising the price forecast to $74 from $73.</a>
The analyst suggests that Mitsui-Sumitomo&#8217;s plan to acquire a 15% stake in W.R. Berkley may not lead to a takeover soon, though it could be a long-term option.
The analyst mentions that W.R. Berkley is currently trading at 3.0 times its estimated book value for March 31, which is close to the highest point it&#8217;s ever reached, matching levels seen in April 2006 and November 2022. This trend of high price-to-book ratios is also observed in other large commercial property and casualty insurance companies, which are generally considered to be overvalued at the moment.
The high price-to-book ratio for W.R. Berkley is largely attributed to its strong return on equity, which is currently in the high teens, driving the elevated valuation despite the company not being as overvalued on a price-to-earnings basis.

Shanker suggests that Berkley benefits from lower exposure to casualty volatility compared to its peer stocks, and although some bearish investors are concerned about potential inadequacies in loss reserves (with short covering possibly explaining the recent stock surge), they believe Berkley is not facing greater challenges regarding loss trends than the industry as a whole.
Shanker states that, in general, they view commercial P&amp;C underwriters as overvalued.
The analyst notes that Berkley has better potential due to its higher return on equity, lower property risk, and the presence of a dedicated buyer in the market.
Despite this, Shanker sees limited upside for Berkley, which leads to a Neutral recommendation.
The analyst also mentions that some unique factors specific to Berkley&#8217;s stock prevent them from recommending an Underperform rating at the current stock price.
Price Action: WRB shares are trading lower by 1.41% to $70.16 at last check Tuesday.

WestPark Capital analyst Curtis Shauger initiated coverage on Alphabet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) on Tuesday with a Buy rating and a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GOOG/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of&nbsp;$210</a>.
Alphabet reported fourth-quarter net sales of $96.47 billion, up 11.8%, but this fell short of the consensus estimate of $96.56–$96.69 billion. GAAP EPS reached $2.15, topping the consensus of $2.12–$2.13.

Cloud revenue of $11.96 billion grew 30% but underperformed the $12.19 billion consensus, with growth slowing from the third quarter's 35%. Operating profit hit $2.15 billion (18% margin), beating the $1.9 billion estimate, but the revenue miss raised concerns about Alphabet trailing AWS and Azure.
Search represents one of the actual utilities of the Internet economy, and Alphabet has expertly dominated the sector for nearly twenty-five years.
The company has levered this enviable position into numerous other growth areas, notably video streaming (YouTube) and Infrastructure-as-a-Service (Google Cloud Platform). Alphabet is a massive cash flow machine with an under-leveraged balance sheet.
With EBITDA margins of 35-40%, Alphabet ended 2024 generating over $70 billion in free cash flow and amassed a net cash balance of ~$85 billion; Shauger noted Alphabet is well positioned to pursue emerging areas of growth, particularly AI.
Slowing growth at GCP has led to concerns about the trajectory of this critical segment.
After reporting 23% growth in its third quarter of 2023, GCP subsequently accelerated over the next several quarters, peaking at 35% in the third quarter of 2024 before slipping to 30% in the fourth quarter of 2024. Despite indications of demand outstripping supply, Shauger noted this dent in acceleration has raised concerns about the near-term trajectory of this strategically important segment.
Although Alphabet offers relatively little in the way of guidance, on its fourth-quarter call, it did announce initial 2025 cap-ex guidance of $75 billion, representing ~ a 35% increase over 2024 and 150% from 2023.
Shauger stated this, coupled with slowing GCP has stoked concerns among some investors. Upcoming remedy trial could prove pivotal.
After ruling in mid-2024 that Alphabet maintained an illegal monopoly in search, the Department of Justice (DOJ) subsequently proposed various remedies, some potentially quite disruptive.
Shauger noted that the trial, set for April of this year, could give investors some measure of the impact of the company and its shares.
Shauger projected first-quarter revenue of $90.23 billion and GAAP EPS of $2.06.
Price Action: GOOG stock is up 1.06% at $157.88 at the last check on Tuesday.

What the Options Market Tells Us About Chipotle Mexican Grill

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Tuesday accepted and granted Priority Review designation to Apellis Pharmaceuticals, Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APLS#NASDAQ">APLS</a>) supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for Empaveli (pegcetacoplan) for C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) and primary immune complex membranoproliferative <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care">glomerulonephritis (IC-MPGN)</a>.
C3G and primary IC-MPGN are rare kidney diseases. Excessive C3c deposits are a key marker of disease activity, which can lead to kidney inflammation, damage, and failure. The diseases are estimated to affect 5,000 people in the United States and up to 8,000 in Europe.

The Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/g44581423/apellis-announces-fda-acceptance-and-priority-review-of-the-supplemental-new-drug-application-for-" rel="noreferrer noopener">date is July 28, 2025</a>.
The supplemental application submission supported by Phase 3 VALIANT results at Week 26:
<ul>
<li>Proteinuria reduction:&nbsp;The study met its primary endpoint, demonstrating a statistically significant 68% (p&lt;0.0001) proteinuria reduction in Empaveli-treated patients compared to placebo.</li>
<li>Stabilization of kidney function:&nbsp;Empaveli-treated patients achieved stabilization of kidney function (nominal p=0.03) as measured by eGFR.</li>
<li>Reduction of C3c staining:&nbsp;A substantial proportion of Empaveli-treated patients achieved a reduction in C3c staining intensity (nominal p&lt;0.0001).&nbsp;71% of Empaveli-treated patients showed complete clearance of C3c staining compared to placebo.</li>
</ul>
Empaveli showed favorable safety and tolerability, which is consistent with its established profile.
William Blair writes, &#8220;We believe the recent approval of Fabhalta (iptacopan) for the treatment of adults with C3G bodes well for an approval of Empaveli given it demonstrated what we believe is best-in-class data and did so in a broader population that included adolescents, patients with IC-MPGN, and post-transplant patients, which should support a broader label and larger addressable market.&#8221;
In March, the FDA approved Novartis AG&#8217;s&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVS#NYSE">NVS</a>) oral Fabhalta&nbsp;(iptacopan) for adults with C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) to reduce proteinuria (protein in the urine), making it the first and only treatment&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44439352/fda-approves-expanded-use-of-novartis-rare-disease-drug-as-only-treatment-for-rare-type-of-kidney-disease" rel="noreferrer noopener">approved for this condition</a>.
Price Action: APLS stock is up 8.05% at $23.63&nbsp;at the last check Tuesday.
