Trader Notes: Crypto trader Crash <a href="https://x.com/CrashiusClay69/status/1856889873833046295">believes</a> Brett has the potential to overtake Dogwifhat, which is already listed on Coinbase, forecasting that Brett could reach two to six times WIF's current valuation.
Another trader, Momin, noted Brett's proximity to its all-time highs and speculated that, following Coinbase's recent addition of two meme coins, Brett could be next. 
Crash <a href="https://x.com/CrashiusClay69/status/1856802996757106755">agreed</a>, anticipating increased speculative interest in Brett as Coinbase's next listing.
Another trader, Composite Trader, described Brett's pattern as one of the strongest accumulation charts, <a href="https://x.com/Larskooistra_/status/1857055345929003212">saying</a> that a rounded-bottom formation, with no residual demand or sell-side liquidity, signals a bullish trend and a possible breakout.
He predicts it is time for Brett to complete its beta train duty and the "range will break towards the upside and will start to trend to new highs."
Community News: Alchemy Pay recently <a href="https://x.com/AlchemyPay/status/1857000968899940645">added</a> Brett to its on-ramp, enabling fiat purchases.

Wynn Resorts Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WYNN#NASDAQ">WYNN</a>) shares are trading higher Thursday after billionaire Tilman Fertitta disclosed a 9.9% passive stake <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/WYNN">in the company</a>.

CNBC&#8217;s David Faber reported Thursday morning that Fertitta&#8217;s increased stake in the company is &#8220;likely not going to be passive for long.&#8221;

This term describes the wage gap and missed career opportunities mothers face due to child care and at-home responsibilities.&nbsp;
Don't Miss:

</ul>
Recent data from CNBC shows that working moms in the U.S. lose around $20,000 annually in potential wages due to child care obligations, highlighting a significant financial impact on many families.
Despite increasing education levels and workforce participation, studies show that women are more likely than men to reduce their hours or temporarily leave their jobs to handle <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40791626/maybe-grandma-and-grandpa-want-to-help-out-a-little-bit-more-j-d-vances-childcare-comment-trigge">child care</a>. According to data from the Federal Reserve, this trend is particularly noticeable for women in their 30s and 40s. Although women in this age group account for about 46% of the total U.S. workforce, their employment rate slightly lags behind their male counterparts, largely because of caregiving demands.
Trending: Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die." <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/connect-invest-real-estate-notes">These high-yield real estate notes that pay 7.5% &#8211; 9% make earning passive income easier than ever.</a>
The economic consequence of this is not small. According to the National Women&#8217;s Law Center, working mothers earn 71 cents for every dollar fathers make. Even those working full-time and year-round experience this wage disparity, showing that many never fully recover from the time they spend away from work due to familial duties. For many mothers, resuming their careers often means starting back at a lower pay grade or losing out on opportunities for advancement, resulting in a long-term income gap.
The pandemic made this worse, with schools and child care facilities closed. Many women had to reevaluate their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41231722/kevin-oleary-says-theres-no-worklife-balance-for-new-entrepreneurs-as-guys-in-mumbai-or-shanghai-wor">work-life balance</a> and even though work-from-home opportunities were far more popular, that didn't lessen the household burden for many mothers.&nbsp;
Trending: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/100k-cd">$100K Sitting In A CD Account, Should I Move Money Into The Stock Market?</a>
McKinsey &amp; Company reported that four in 10 partnered women say they handle most or all of the household responsibilities, a trend that has grown since 2016. By contrast, more men say they have an equal share of at-home responsibilities, suggesting a gap in how men and women perceive their roles in the home.&nbsp;
It's not just mothers who are primary caregivers that face this responsibility of taking on more home-related duties. Studies show that even when women are the main income earners, they still shoulder more household duties. One study found that 37% of partnered women feel the need to prioritize their partner&#8217;s career over their own. This is often attributed to their partner earning more or ingrained societal expectations. This imbalance can stall women's career growth and compound financial losses.

Efforts are underway to address these challenges. Some companies are exploring options such as flexible schedules, child care support and paid family leave policies, which may help reduce the financial impact on working mothers. Additionally, many households are reevaluating traditional roles, with some men, particularly those with higher incomes, choosing to scale back at work to assist with child care.
McKinsey &amp; Company states that companies should take certain steps to aid in these efforts to create a more equitable workplace for women and working mothers. These include:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Debiasing hiring and promotions processes</li>
<li>Inspiring and equipment employees to curb bias and practice allyship</li>
<li>Unlocking the power of managers to influence careers and team culture</li>
</ul>
Although these changes offer hope, many mothers face an uphill battle balancing work and family responsibilities. Until <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41602038/new-report-reveals-62-of-u-s-retirees-leave-the-workforce-sooner-than-expected-and-people-are-no">caregiving responsibilities</a> are more equitably shared and until workplace policies better support parents, the motherhood penalty will likely continue to be a significant factor in the wage gap between men and women.

With Republicans taking control of Congress, Wall Street is buzzing about a potential boom in mergers and acquisitions (M&amp;A) under the upcoming<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump"> Trump administration.</a>
Bank of America analysts see brighter days ahead for deal-making, anticipating that Trump could remove Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan, whose aggressive antitrust stance has been a major roadblock for M&amp;A activity across sectors.
Combined with favorable macro factors and investor demand for capex and M&amp;A over debt paydown, there are plenty of reasons to believe that 2025 and beyond could see significant deal activity.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Banks And Biotech: Two Key Sectors To Watch</h3>
Analysts at Bank of America's U.S. banks team are particularly bullish about the M&amp;A prospects for financials, which have historically enjoyed more than 50% higher deal activity under Republican administrations than Democratic ones. With regulatory scrutiny expected to loosen, the landscape is ripe for a surge in bank deals.
Deal activity in biotech has already started picking up, especially in smaller acquisitions. Big Pharma faces mounting pressure to offset patent expirations, so it&#8217;s hunting for acquisition targets to replenish its drug pipelines. Lower rates and potential deregulation could further fuel biotech M&amp;A as we head into 2025.
"The election results could lead to a less restrictive regulatory environment, which may open the door for more bank mergers and acquisitions,&#8221; Jill Carey Hall, CFA, a Bank of America analyst, said. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Macro Factors: Green And Yellow Lights for M&amp;A</h3>
Several macroeconomic factors support a cyclical pick-up in M&amp;A activity. 
Strong equity market returns, cheap small-cap valuations relative to large caps and tight credit spreads all suggest a favorable environment for deal-making.
Not all signals are flashing green. Slowing GDP growth, rate uncertainty and high volatility could throw some caution flags. Long-term growth expectations for small caps, though improved, still remain below average.
Bank of America's credit strategists predict that 2025 could be a better year for M&amp;A activity as rate cuts begin to materialize and volatility subsides. 
"Sponsors are sitting on a pile of uncalled capital, and there's a real incentive to deploy it in a friendlier economic environment," Hall said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Who Stands To Gain: Small-Cap Targets, Large-Cap Acquirers</h3>
With large deals on the decline, smaller targets have become the prime candidates for takeovers. 
Aggregate deal value has been falling in recent years as mega-cap deals have dried up and smaller, more manageable transactions have become the norm.
This trend has paid off for both sides: small-cap targets have outperformed post-announcement and large-cap acquirers have seen record one-day gains in 2023 despite paying higher deal premiums.
This pattern suggests that investors are rewarding companies that buy growth, especially in today's uncertain economic landscape.

Bank of America's latest screening of potential M&amp;A candidates includes high-growth, undervalued names, each with distinct value propositions that may appeal to suitors looking for long-term growth.
