Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) could emerge as &#8220;the next Oracle&#8221; in the artificial intelligence revolution, according to Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives, who dubbed the data analytics firm &#8220;the Messi of AI&#8221; despite its stock already surging 395.42% in 2024.
What Happened: The company&#8217;s stock, trading at $82.14, has become the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s top performer this year, pushing its market capitalization to $183.23 billion. This remarkable run has positioned Palantir well above Wedbush&#8217;s $75 price target, though Ives maintains strong conviction in the company&#8217;s growth trajectory.
&#8220;Looking ahead to the next 5-10 years, I believe it&#8217;s all about Palantir. In the context of the AI revolution, this is just the beginning,&#8221; Ives emphasized <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcTK53LhP2w">on</a> CNBC&#8217;s Closing Bell Overtime. He describes Palantir as a &#8220;table-pounder&#8221; stock that investors should consider adding to their portfolios, despite its current price-to-earnings ratio of 411.90.
Former Palantir employee Alex Fishman, now with Empros Capital, provided additional insight into the company&#8217;s potential: &#8220;When I look at Palantir, it&#8217;s one of the few companies where I can easily envision it becoming 10 or 20 times its current size.&#8221; 
Fishman highlighted Palantir&#8217;s crucial role in defense and commercial sectors, describing it as &#8220;the glue that ties everything together&#8221; in coordinating critical technological efforts.

Why It Matters: Wall Street&#8217;s broader consensus remains more conservative, with an average price target of $35.58 based on 20 analyst ratings. However, recent updates suggest growing optimism. UBS issued an $80 price target on December 19, while Mizuho and Baird released positive outlooks, though their average target of $64.67 still implies a potential downside.
The company&#8217;s technical indicators suggest room for continued growth, with an RSI reading of 62 indicating the stock isn&#8217;t yet in overbought territory despite its dramatic rise. The stock&#8217;s 52-week range of $15.66 to $84.80 reflects its volatile but upward trajectory.
In the same discussion, Ives also raised Apple Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) price target to $325, citing AI initiatives, though he emphasized Palantir&#8217;s unique position in the enterprise AI space. As companies increasingly adopt AI solutions, Ives believes Palantir&#8217;s commercial expansion and defense sector dominance position it for continued growth into 2025.

What Happened: After teasing the $100,000 mark on Christmas, Bitcoin witnessed a steep decline, falling to an intraday low of $95,170.
Ethereum dropped to the $3,300 region following the to-and-from movement between $3,440 and $3,510.
Trading volumes for both currencies rose, indicating that traders returned from their Christmas break to book profits.
Over $270 million was liquidated from the market in the last 24 hours, with long liquidations accounting for $200 million.
Bitcoin's Open Interest increased by 0.97% in the last 24 hours. The majority of them were short positions, as evidenced by a drop in the Long/Short Ratio.
That said, nearly $760 million in short positions risked liquidation if Bitcoin rebounds to $100,000.
The market sentiment was "Greed," according to the Crypto Fear &amp; Greed Index.

Trading resumed on Wall Street after the Christmas holiday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average squeezed out a narrow gain of 0.07% to close at 43,325.80. The S&amp;P 500 slid 0.04%, ending at 6,037.59, while the tech-focused Nasdaq Composite closed down 0.05% at 20,020.36.

Analyst Notes: Influential cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez called attention to Bitcoin dipping below its "most significant" support level at $97,300.
"So, for the bearish outlook to be invalidated, BTC must reclaim this critical area of support and, more importantly, sustain a daily close above $100,000," Martinez stated.
As it turned out, the leading cryptocurrency failed to reach these predictions, remaining stuck in the $95,000 range.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Pull Back After Christmas Rally: Top Analyst Reveals What Happens Next After BTC Fails To Record Daily Close Above $100K

On Thursday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest made significant trades involving Palantir Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>). and Block Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SQ#NYSE">SQ</a>). Notably, the firm had sold shares of both these companies ahead of Christmas as well.
The Palantir Trade
Ark Invest decided to sell 103,410 shares of Palantir Technologies Inc. through its ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>). The sale, valued at approximately $8.5 million based on Palantir&#8217;s closing price of $82.14, aligns with Ark&#8217;s recent trend of reducing its position in Palantir. 
Palantir&#8217;s stock has seen a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42673408/palantir-stock-is-trading-at-all-time-highs-whats-going-on">remarkable surge</a>, climbing over 380% since the beginning of the year, largely due to its strong positioning in the AI sector. This rally gained momentum in November following the company&#8217;s impressive quarterly results, which highlighted robust demand for AI solutions.
The Block Trade
In another strategic move, Ark Invest sold 15,342 shares of Block Inc. from ARKK. This transaction was valued at approximately $1.4 million, calculated from Block&#8217;s closing price of $91.48. Block, previously known as Square, has been a key player in the digital payments space and has a Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) focus. Bitcoin has been in focus as the leading cryptocurrency has been consistently hitting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42334991/as-bitcoin-hits-100k-for-the-first-time-ark-invests-cathie-wood-calls-it-a-much-bigger-idea-than-gold-and-that-it-is-still-is-in-early-innings">new all-time highs</a> this year.

Cathie Wood Takes Profit On Hot AI Stock Palantir Again, Continues To Sell Block Shares Amid Bitcoin Buzz

On Thursday, former U.N. Ambassador and 2024 presidential candidate Nikki Haley took to X to express her support for American workers and culture in response to Department of Government Efficiency Co-head Vivek Ramaswamy.
What Happened: Ramaswamy, who is set to lead DOGE along with Elon Musk under President-elect Donald Trump, had said that the reason why top tech companies often hire foreign-born engineers over U.S.-born engineers isn&#8217;t because of IQ deficit but rather because of &#8220;culture.&#8221;
He said, &#8220;A culture that celebrates the prom queen over the math olympiad champ, or the jock over the valedictorian, will not produce the best engineers.&#8221;
Ramaswamy went on to say that under Trump, the U.S. could have a potential &#8220;Sputnik&#8221; movement and witness the &#8220;beginning of a new golden era.&#8221;
Haley responded by saying that there was &#8220;nothing wrong with American workers or American culture.&#8221; She said, &#8220;All you have to do is look at the border and see how many want what we have. We should be investing and prioritizing in Americans, not foreign workers.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Ramaswamy and Haley have a history of heated exchanges. Haley&#8217;s post can be seen as a continuation of her strong stance during the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/09/34964396/nikki-haley-clashes-with-vivek-ramaswamy-over-tiktok-every-time-i-hear-you-i-feel-a-little-bit-dumbe">GOP debates</a>. She has been vocal about her disapproval of Ramaswamy&#8217;s decision to join TikTok, a platform she considers dangerous due to its connections with the Chinese government.

Despite these controversies, Haley emerged as the winner in the third GOP presidential debate, according to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35717884/nikki-haley-winner-vivek-ramaswamy-loser-in-third-gop-presidential-debate-but-trump-remains-top-choi">poll</a> conducted by 538, Washington Post, and Ipsos. Ramaswamy, on the other hand, found himself at the bottom of the ratings.

Streaming giant Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) aired its first NFL games on Christmas Day with two games featuring four of the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/12/42354185/nfl-games-set-thanksgiving-day-records-why-this-is-good-and-bad-news-for-streaming-giant-netflix"> top teams in the league.</a>
Here's a look at what happened and a poll that shows the holiday may have hurt viewership.
What Happened: Netflix <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/12/42512587/netflix-analyst-say-its-only-investable-media-stock-projects-150-million-nfl-christmas-day-boost">spent an estimated</a> $150 million on the rights to two 2024 NFL games on Christmas Day. Strong advertising demand may help the streaming giant recoup the fees and turn the events into free marketing plays.
The big question will be how many viewers tuned in to the NFL games as they were Netflix exclusives and also competed against NBA games, which have traditionally been a staple on Christmas. Family gatherings and events also likely took top billing on Christmas, leaving investors and analysts to eagerly await official viewership data.
Using Benzinga's own methods of polling, the data doesn't suggest that viewership will be as strong for the NFL games as some may be expecting.
"Did you watch Netflix football games?" Benzinga asked during its <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgZkTiF6WnU">morning YouTube show </a>"Benzinga's Market Edge Live."
The results from the show&#8217;s YouTube viewership were:
<ul>
<li>Yes: 27%</li>
<li>No: 72%</li>
</ul>
Benzinga also<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42653325/exclusive-netflix-to-have-merry-christmas-with-nfl-games-will-viewers-tune-in-60-say"> recently polled readers</a> and asked if they would be watching ahead of the Christmas Day games.
&#8220;Will you watch Christmas NFL games on Netflix?&#8221; Benzinga asked.
Here were the results:
<ul>
<li>Yes, I already have Netflix: 39%</li>
<li>No, I don&#8217;t have Netflix and won&#8217;t watch: 30%</li>
<li>No, even though I have Netflix: 30%</li>
<li>Yes, I plan to subscribe to Netflix to watch: 1%</li>
</ul>
The largest percentage of readers said they are subscribers and will be watching, getting 39% of the vote. Thirty percent of Netflix subscribers said they won&#8217;t be watching despite being able to watch the games for free with their subscription. Thirty percent said they do not have Netflix and won&#8217;t subscribe just to gain access to the NFL games.
In total, the poll found that 60% of readers don&#8217;t plan on watching the NFL games on Christmas Day.
Why It's Important: NFL viewership has been strong during the 2024 season, with the Chiefs being one of the most popular teams. The official Netflix viewership figure could show what the appetite is like for more holiday NFL games and more streaming exclusives.
In the first Christmas Day game this year, the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 29-10 to take their record to 15-1 on the season. The Steelers dropped to 10-6 on the season, with both teams already having NFL Playoffs spots clinched.
Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce led the way with eight catches for 84 yards and a receiving touchdown, which set the record for the most receiving touchdowns by a Chiefs player all time with 76.
In the second Christmas Day game on Netflix, the Baltimore Ravens defeated the Houston Texans 31-2 to improve their record to 11-5. The Texans fell to 9-7 on the season. Both these teams have also clinched spots in the 2024 NFL Playoffs.
In the Ravens dominant win, quarterback Lamar Jackson rushed for 87 yards and a rushing touchdown. Jackson now has 6,110 career rushing yards, breaking a record previously held by Michael Vick.
With the win and dominant performance, Jackson remains a favorite to win a second-straight NFL MVP. Jackson, who won MVPs for the 2019 and 2023 seasons, ranks second in the betting odds at sportsbook DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>) with odds of +170. Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is the current favorite at -225.
Here are the current Super Bowl LIX betting odds from DraftKings:
<ul>
<li>Kansas City Chiefs: +360</li>
<li>Detroit Lions: +390</li>
<li>Buffalo Bills: +600</li>
<li>Philadelphia Eagles: +650</li>
<li>Baltimore Ravens: +650</li>
<li>Minnesota Vikings: +1,100</li>
<li>Green Bay Packers: +1,300</li>
<li>Los Angeles Rams: +3,000</li>
<li>Washington Commanders: +5,000</li>
<li>Pittsburgh Steelers: +5,000</li>
<li>Los Angeles Chargers: +5,000</li>
<li>Houston Texans: +5,000</li>
<li>Denver Broncos: +5,000</li>
</ul>
The Chiefs are back to being the betting favorite as they try to win three straight Super Bowls, which would be a first for any NFL team.

SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LAES#NASDAQ">LAES</a>) shares closed Thursday up more than 60%, and the stock isn&#8217;t slowing down after hours.

What Happened: After the market close on Thursday, SEALSQ said it received formal written notice from the Nasdaq confirming that the company regained compliance with the Nasdaq&#8217;s minimum bid price requirement.
SEALSQ received a letter from the Nasdaq on Aug. 1, stating that the company was not in compliance with the&nbsp;$1&nbsp;minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq. The company was required to maintain a minimum bid price of at least $1 for 10 consecutive trading days prior to Jan. 28.

SEALSQ shares are now up more than 2,000% over the past month, per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

SEALSQ Corp Shares Are Moving Higher After Hours: What's Going On?

Editor&#8217;s note: This story has been updated with comment from Zelle and Bank of America. 
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau sued three of the nation's largest banks and the operator of Zelle last week, alleging a failure to protect consumers from widespread fraud on the peer-to-peer payment network, resulting in customer losses of more than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40155365/zelle-controversy-heats-up-jpmorgan-considers-legal-action">$870 million since 2017.&nbsp;</a>
The Details: The CFPB's <a href="https://www.consumerfinance.gov/enforcement/actions/early-warning-services-llc-bank-of-america-na-jpmorgan-chase-bank-na-wells-fargo-bank-na/">lawsuit</a> alleges that JP Morgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), Wells Fargo &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>), Bank of America Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) and Early Warning Services rushed to complete the Zelle payment network in order to compete with Venmo and CashApp and neglected to enact effective fraud safeguards.

"The nation's largest banks felt threatened by competing payment apps, so they rushed to put out Zelle," said CFPB Director Rohit Chopra. "By their failing to put in place proper safeguards, Zelle became a gold mine for fraudsters, while often leaving victims to fend for themselves."
The lawsuit further alleges that the banks "systemically failed" their customers by failing to properly investigate customer complaints or share information on known acts of fraud which allowed bad actors to hop between banks and commit repeated fraudulent transactions.&nbsp;
Zelle told Benzinga in an emailed statement that it sees the CFPB's lawsuit as politically motivated and&nbsp; "legally and factually flawed." Zelle said it "leads the fight against scams and fraud" and that its reimbursement policies exceed those required by law.
"The CFPB's misguided attacks will embolden criminals, cost consumers more in fees, stifle small businesses and make it harder for thousands of community banks and credit unions to compete,&#8221; said&nbsp;Jane Khodos, Zelle spokesperson.
A Bank of America spokesperson told Benzinga that more than 99.5% of Zelle transactions go through without incident and when an issue arises, the bank works directly with the customer to resolve it.
"We strongly disagree with the CFPB's effort to impose huge new costs on the 2,200 banks and credit unions that offer the free Zelle service to clients," Bank of America added.
Benzinga also contacted JPMorgan, Wells Fargo, Bank of America and Early Warning Services for comment on the lawsuit.
JPMorgan told CBS News that the CFPB has a &#8220;political agenda,&#8221;and the agency is &#8220;overreaching its authority by making banks accountable for criminals, even including romance scammers.&#8221;
The CFPB said its lawsuit aims to stop the banks' alleged unlawful practices, secure penalties for the violations and obtain other relief for consumers.&nbsp;
"The banks failed to fix glaring flaws in their systems even as hundreds of thousands of customers filed complaints about fraud," Chopra said in a <a href="https://www.consumerfinance.gov/about-us/newsroom/prepared-press-call-remarks-of-cfpb-director-rohit-chopra-on-the-zelle-lawsuit-announcement/">statement</a>.
"The banks knew their customers were having their money stolen, but since they weren't bearing the cost of these losses themselves, they dragged their feet on fixing the problems," he added.&nbsp;

월스트리트는 공화당이 의회를 장악하고 규제를 완화함에 따라 M&amp;A가 급증할 것으로 예상하고 있다. 분석가들은 리나 칸(Lina Khan) 연방거래위원회(FTC) 위원장의 해임으로 인해 독점 금지 조사가 쉬워질 것으로 예상하고 있다. 뱅크 오브 아메리카는 도널드 트럼프 대통령 당선자와 같은 공화당 행정부가 역사적으로 민주당 행정부에 비해 금융 부문 M&amp;A 활동을 50% 이상 육성했다는 점을 강조한다.
뱅크 오브 아메리카는 또한 금리 인하가 발효되고 경제 상황이 안정화됨에 따라 2025년은 M&amp;A에 있어 더 좋은 해가 될 수 있다고 예측한다. 다음은 은행이 수집한 5가지 잠재적 목표 목록이다. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41979935/golden-years-for-ma-deals-ahead-under-trump-analysts-highlight-top-10-large-cap-candidates" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">전체 목록</a>을 보려면 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41979935/golden-years-for-ma-deals-ahead-under-trump-analysts-highlight-top-10-large-cap-candidates" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">여기를 클릭</a>하세요.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">파산 블록</h3>
미국의 교도소 의료 서비스 제공업체인 웰패스 홀딩스(Wellpath Holdings Inc.)는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/bankruptcy">파산 신청</a>을 준비 중이다.
H.I.G. 캐피털 소유 테네시주 내슈빌에 본사를 둔 이 회사는 부채와 인건비 문제로 어려움을 겪고 있다. 대출 기관들과의 유예 계약을 포함한 노력에도 불구하고 재정적 부담은 지속되었다.
이 소식은 교도소 관련 주식인 지오 그룹(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GEO#NYSE">GEO</a>)과 코어시빅(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CXW#NYSE">CXW</a>)가 도널드 트럼프가 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/11/41779902/prison-stocks-geo-group-corecivic-rally-on-trump-2024-election-win-history-shows-the-gains-may-n">2024년 대통령 선거에서 승리했다는 소식</a>에 긍정적으로 반응한 상황과 겹쳐 발생했다.
한편, 토론토에 본사를 둔 슬랭 월드와이드(CSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLNG#CSE">SLNG</a>) (OTCQB:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLGWF#OTCQB">SLGWF</a>)는 콜로라도에서 수탁 관리에 들어가고 캐나다에서 파산을 선언했습니다. 2024년 11월 15일 만기인 신용 계약에 따른 채무를 상환할 수 없어, 슬랭은 자산을 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/11/41778383/another-one-bites-the-dust-slang-worldwide-files-for-bankruptcy-due-to-inability-to-pay-debt">수탁 관리 절차를 통해 처분하거나 매각할</a> 가능성이 높다.

트립어드바이저(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRIP#NASDAQ">TRIP</a>)는 현재 &#8220;전략적 대안&#8221; 탐색 중이다. 이는 매각을 의미하는 기업 용어이다. CFO 마이크 누난(Mike Noonan)에 <a href="https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/q3-2024-tripadvisor-inc-earnings-133036809.html">따르면</a>, 회사는 3분기 말에 11억 달러의 현금을 보유하고 있었다. 만약 어떤 회사가 제안을 한다면, 리버티 미디어에게 매력을 어필해야 하는데, 리버티 미디어는 트립어드바이저의 보통주 약 21%와 의결권 약 57%를 보유하고 있다.
KKR &amp; 컴퍼니(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KKR#NYSE">KKR</a>)는 JB 케미컬스 &amp; 파마슈티컬스(JB Chemicals &amp; Pharmaceuticals Ltd)에 대한 지분을 시장에서 블록 거래를 통해 매각할 계획이다. <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-06/kkr-is-said-to-consider-selling-750-million-stake-in-jb-pharma">블룸버그에 따르면</a>, 이 사모 펀드 회사는 인도 상장 회사의 주식 약 7억 5천만 달러어치를 매각하는 방안을 한 투자은행과 협의 중이다. 수요에 따라 거래 규모는 10억 달러로 증가할 수 있다.

브룩필드(Brookfield)는 호주 시드니에 본사를 둔 노인 요양 시설 운영업체 아베오(Aveo)의 매각 절차를 6월에 시작했다. 호주 언론에 따르면 이 30억 달러 규모의 회사는 2025년까지 매각되지 않을 것으로 보인다.

짐 크레이머는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41857971/trumps-win-sends-wall-street-to-record-highs-small-caps-tesla-outperform-fed-cuts-interest-rates-this-week-in-the-market">트럼프 행정부의 출범</a>와 함께 M&amp;A가 재부흥할 것이라고 낙관했다. 크레이머는 이전 행정부가 엄격한 독점 금지 심사로 유명했던 것에 비해 M&amp;A 승인에 대한 보다 관대한 접근을 예측했다. 이 &#8220;매드 머니(Mad Money)&#8221; 진행자는 또한 지역 은행 부문이 M&amp;A 활동 증가로 인해 상당한 혜택을 볼 수 있을 것이라고 강조했다. 이는 은행들이 더 작은 기관을 인수하거나 합병하여 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/11/41805370/jim-cramer-hopes-m-a-to-come-back-bigly-under-trump-administration">더 큰 &#8216;슈퍼 리저널&#8217; 은행을 형성할 수</a> 있게 한다.
