Rivian Automotive Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) shares fell 3.53% to $11.49 by market close on Wednesday following remarks by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell warning of higher inflation risks and slower growth tied to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44848474/fed-chair-powell-says-tariffs-lead-to-temporary-rise-in-inflation">newly imposed trade tariffs</a>.
The electric vehicle maker, already facing rising cost pressures and an unprofitable operating model, could be particularly vulnerable to tariff-driven input cost hikes.
What To Know: Rivian relies heavily on imported components — especially lithium, cobalt and rare earth elements used in EV batteries. Tariffs on Chinese and other foreign imports could sharply raise the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44835160/trump-orders-critical-minerals-probe-as-china-tightens-controls-over-rare-commodities">cost of those materials</a>, directly hitting Rivian's already-thin gross margins.
Moreover, Powell's comments pointing to softening U.S. growth stoked fears of weaker consumer demand, especially in discretionary segments such as electric trucks and SUVs. Rivian&#8217;s premium pricing model may struggle in an environment of slowing economic momentum and cautious consumer sentiment.
With inflation still exceeding the Fed's target and Powell signaling a wait-and-see stance on policy adjustments, investors could worry Rivian could face higher costs without the offset of stronger demand.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy Rivian Stock</h1>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Rivian Automotive — be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
In the case of Rivian Automotive, which is trading at $11.24 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 8.9 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading — either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, RIVN has a 52-week high of $18.86 and a 52-week low of $8.32.

What's Going On With Rivian (RIVN) Stock?

Tariffs will have ZERO long-term impact on the stock market.
There…I said it.
Don't believe me? Basic math says I'm correct.
If you're scared of tariffs, you won't be after reading this
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="937" height="625" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/16200326/image-1-1.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-10856" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/16200326/image-1-1.jpeg 937w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/16200326/image-1-1-300x200.jpeg 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/16200326/image-1-1-768x512.jpeg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px" /></figure>
In a healthy economy, tariffs should have a long-term impact on the stock market.
But we don't live in a healthy economy.
Regardless of what any politician does to the stock market…
The Federal Reserve can add digits on a computer screen, and your stocks will skyrocket.
And that's exactly what they'll be doing soon.
Not necessarily because they want to…because they have to.
Here's the situation.
The U.S. is $36.6 trillion in debt.
$9.2 of that $36 trillion needs to either be refinanced or paid this year.
Let's examine both options and see how all roads lead to higher stock prices.
Option 1:
The $9.2 trillion is paid off.
There are only a handful of ways to make this happen.
<ul>
<li>Tax citizens to pay it off</li>
<li>Cut government spending and reallocate funds</li>
<li>Print money (Quantitative Easing)</li>
</ul>
Here's why printing money is the only logical choice of the 3.
The government collected ~$5 trillion in taxes last year.
Which means we're still $4 trillion short.
Plus, Trump is preaching zero income taxes.
So, raising taxes to collect $4 trillion more? Political suicide.
Paying off the $9.2 trillion with taxes is off the table.
Next, the government can cut spending elsewhere and reallocate funds.
Such as the military, federal programs, etc.
But that wouldn't work either.
Military = $900B
Social Security = 1.4T
Medicaid and other health insurance programs = $1.6T
Even if I tally up all government expenditures, it still doesn't pay off the debt.
And finally…the only possible choice.
The Federal Reserve will perform quantitative easing.
Which is a fancy way of saying they'll print money out of thin air.
This money will be used to purchase bonds from the US Treasury.
This directly injects cash into the financial system.
If the Fed creates $9.2 trillion, it's practically impossible for stocks not to rise.
Alright, so that's what'll happen if the Fed performs quantitative easing.
The other option is refinancing the debt at new interest rates.
Basically…kicking the can down the road.
The problem with refinancing at new rates is that interest rates are relatively high right now.
And the US is already paying ~$1.2T in yearly interest.
If we refinance $9.2T at current rates, that $1.2T in yearly interest would soar.
Not good.
So what's the solution?
Cutting rates, of course.
Afterwards, the debt will be rolled over.
So the Fed's options are the following:
Print $9.2 trillion (stocks would go parabolic)
Or cut rates, which means more lending will occur.
Lending with interest is how smaller banks effectively create money.
So no matter what happens, more money will be printed.
Which means your assets will rise.
There you have it.
Stocks will rise – regardless of Trump's tariffs.
All roads lead to the money printer.
If you're wondering when a genuine bear market could take place…
The most likely answer is 2026.
We live in a global economy with 4-year debt cycles.
The year of quantitative tightening and rate hikes worldwide is most likely 2026.
Until then, enjoy this monumental buying opportunity.

CDC Advisory Committee On Immunization Practices Voted To Expand Pfizer's RSV Vaccine ABRYSVO To Include Adults Aged 50 To 59 At Increased Risk Of Disease

Keefe, Bruyette &amp; Woods analyst Kyle Voigt reiterated the Market Perform rating on Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBKR#NASDAQ">IBKR</a>),<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/IBKR/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener"> with a price forecast of $181.</a>
On Tuesday, Interactive Brokers released its first-quarter results. It reported quarterly earnings of $1.88 per share, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44826372/interactive-brokers-reports-mixed-q1-results-declares-4-for-1-forward-stock-split" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $1.92. </a>
The analyst noted that the earnings miss was mainly due to a decline in net interest income, largely caused by weaker securities lending revenue.
In the first quarter, Interactive Brokers&#8217;&nbsp;net interest income increased 3% to $770 million on higher average customer margin loans and customer credit balances.

Voigt highlights that the non-GAAP results exclude a $5 million loss from the currency diversification strategy and a $3 million mark-to-market adjustment on investments.
The company also raised its quarterly dividend from 25 cents to 32 cents and declared a 4-for-1 forward stock split, effective as of the close of market on Monday, June 16, 2025.
Voigt writes that the analyst&#8217;s forecast includes a $0.25 dividend through 2027, following the first dividend increase since 2011 in Q1 2024.
Apart from Keefe, Bruyette &amp; Woods, BofA Securities analyst Craig Siegenthaler maintains Interactive Brokers with a Buy, lowering the price forecast from&nbsp;$265&nbsp;to&nbsp;$243.
According to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>, IBKR stock has gained over 45% in the past year.

Palantir Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) shares moved lower on Wednesday, along with the broader technology sector, after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell made remarks expressing concern <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44848474/fed-chair-powell-says-tariffs-lead-to-temporary-rise-in-inflation#:~:text=In%20remarks%20delivered%20Wednesday%20at,a%20notable%20deterioration%20in%20sentiment.">about the economy.</a>
What To Know: Powell said tariffs are likely to fuel inflation and noted that recent data suggests the U.S. economy is slowing, according to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/16/powell-indicates-tariffs-could-pose-a-two-pronged-policy-challenge-for-the-fed-.html">CNBC</a>. In addition, surveys of consumers and businesses show weakening sentiment.
Powell said the inflationary effects of tariffs could be more persistent, noting that avoiding that outcome depends on the size of the effects, how long they take to pass through to prices and whether long-term inflation expectations remain anchored.
Powell said the Federal Reserve is waiting for more clarity before making policy changes.
Slower economic growth and rising inflation could pressure government and commercial clients to scale back spending on software and data contracts. This may weigh on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/44824755/palantir-stock-is-on-fire-this-week-outpacing-broader-markets-whats-going-on">Palantir's revenue growth</a>, particularly in discretionary or expansion-focused projects.
Palantir is also under selling pressure after Morgan Stanley analyst Sanjit Singh maintained an Equal-Weight rating on the company and lowered the price target from&nbsp;$95&nbsp;to&nbsp;$90.
PLTR Price Action: Palantir shares closed 5.78% lower at $92.71, according to data from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro.</a>

United Airlines Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) shares <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UAL/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">traded lower on Wednesday.</a>
On Tuesday, the company reported first-quarter revenue of $13.21 billion, missing<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/04/44826858/united-airlines-stock-takes-off-on-q1-earnings-strong-q2-forecast-fy-guidance-for-stable-and-recessionary-environments-impossible-to-predict" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;analyst estimates of $13.25 billion.</a> United estimated second-quarter adjusted earnings in the range of $3.25 to $4.25 per share.
Here are the key analyst takes on the stock, shared on Wednesday:
<ul>
<li>BofA Securities analyst Andrew G. Didora reiterated the Buy rating on the stock, with a price forecast of $100.</li>
<li>Goldman Sachs analyst Catherine O'Brien reiterated the Buy rating on United Airlines, with a price forecast of $92.</li>
</ul>
BofA Securities: Didora noted that, like Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), United Airlines has not experienced any further decline in bookings in recent weeks.
This stability allowed the company to provide a strong second-quarter 2025 earnings guidance.
Related Link:&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/technicals/25/04/44811346/united-airlines-stock-hits-resistance-before-q1-earnings-can-analyst-optimism-fuel-a-rebound" rel="noreferrer noopener">United Airlines Stock Hits Resistance Before Q1 Earnings: Can Analyst Optimism Fuel A Rebound?</a>
The analyst described the quarter as well-executed and expressed confidence in United&#8217;s potential to outperform moving forward, citing its strong revenue from premium offerings, a robust loyalty program, and a healthy balance sheet as key drivers of its competitive edge.
The analyst suggested that United Airlines likely began reducing costs when it noticed weakening demand in early February, coinciding with the DOGE fare cuts.
The cost-cutting measures appear to have focused on improving operational efficiency, adjusting maintenance schedules, and speeding up the retirement of older aircraft.
These strategic moves likely served as key levers to manage expenses and preserve margins in response to softening market conditions, Didora adds.
The analyst noted that while a holiday shift may have slightly boosted booking numbers, the performance still appears strong—especially as investors closely watch for potential weakness in international demand due to tariff-related concerns.
Goldman Sachs: O'Brien pointed out that, amid growing investor concern around full-year earnings guidance due to an uncertain demand outlook, many expected airlines to either withdraw or significantly lower their forecasts.
However, United Airlines took a different route by presenting two potential scenarios.
In one case, where bookings remain consistent with recent weaker trends, the company is sticking with its original 2025 EPS forecast of $11.50 to $13.50.
In a more cautious, recessionary scenario, United expects earnings between $7.00 and $9.00, which is still above Goldman Sachs&#8217; illustrative estimate of $6.20 for a downturn.
These ranges compare to the current Street consensus of $10.52 and Goldman's estimate of $9.75.
O'Brien highlighted several key risks, including the possibility that increased competition could offset the benefits of United&#8217;s network restructuring plans.
There's also concern about potential further delays in aircraft deliveries and the chance that demand in the Asia-Pacific region may recover more slowly than expected, the analyst writes.
Price Action: UAL shares ended Wednesday down 0.01% at $66.99.

Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APPL#NASDAQ">APPL</a>) shares moved lower on Wednesday. The stock may have moved lower today on continued weakness as investors continue to weigh the potential impact of tariffs and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/04/44846882/big-bank-ceos-weigh-in-on-trumps-turbulent-economy">other policy decisions.</a>
What To Know: Earlier this week, President Donald Trump and his administration announced that certain technology, such as smartphones, will be, at least temporarily, exempt from the 145% reciprocal tariffs on Chinese imports, according to the <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/04/14/business/tech-stocks-jump-after-trump-pauses-tariffs-on-electronics/?utm_source=chatgpt.com">New York Post</a>.
Apple and other American tech companies rely on components sourced from China that could have become more expensive under the proposed tariffs. Higher production costs could have led to higher prices for consumers and ultimately lower demand.
Shares of Apple jumped on Monday after the tariff exemption news, but that &#8220;relief rally&#8221; has now faded, with Apple and other tech stocks closing lower on Wednesday.
The broader market, including the technology sector, may also be under selling pressure after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell made comments about a slowing U.S. economy. According to Reuters, Powell said tariffs will likely lead to inflation and slower economic growth, however, he is waiting for more clarity before considering policy changes.
Inflation and slower U.S. growth could curb consumer spending on discretionary items like electronics. Moreover, tariffs may raise the cost of key components Apple uses in its products, squeezing profit margins.
AAPL Price Action: Apple shares closed 3.9% lower at $194.27, according to data from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Thanks to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44845141/nvidia-drags-wall-street-down-gold-defies-gravity-ahead-of-powell-remarks-whats-driving-markets-wednesday">technology sector struggling badly</a> on Wednesday — with a political matter dragging down Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) — big data analytics specialist Palantir Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) unfortunately fell in sympathy with its peers. In theory, PLTR stock now offers contrarians a possibly discounted upside prospect. At the same time, the vagaries of the current market cycle warrant consideration of smart, risk-mitigated strategies.
Specifically, the tech juggernauts felt the heat as the U.S. government announced that it would bar Nvidia from selling its H20 chips to China. This decision could wipe out an estimated $5.5 billion from the company&#8217;s projected quarterly revenue. Further, the implications affected other chipmakers, such as Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), which is exposed under the new licensing requirements.
Because the headwinds are not directly tied to Palantir's core business offerings, a temptation exists to go long on PLTR stock. While this may be a rational form of speculation, it's not without serious risks. With <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44831287/trump-administration-imposes-up-to-245-tariff-on-chinese-imports-amid-intensifying-trade-battle">diplomatic tensions rising</a> between the U.S. and China, the impact of an all-out trade war would likely create a ripple effect globally. That's not necessarily good news for Palantir or any other tech entity.
Stated differently, traders may have a general idea of where the market may head next, at least in the near term. With such a strong downturn on Wednesday, it's possible — perhaps likely — that PLTR stock will attempt to build back up over the next few days. But the magnitude of this buildup (if it materializes) represents a major question mark and that brings the discussion to parallax compression.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">PLTR Stock And The Concept Of Parallax Compression</h2>
In the field of optical systems, parallax error refers to the visual distortion between perceived alignment and actual alignment (or lack thereof). For example, when firing a rifle from a distance, a slight shift in eye position can create an illusion where the reticle or crosshairs appears to move relative to the target. Parallax error, without correction, can lead to a missed shot.
Similarly, parallax error in the options market can lead to an outright loss. In most options-based transactions, traders must wrestle with a three-dimensional problem: direction, magnitude and time. Simply stated, where to, how far and when?
Frustratingly, a trader can be correct in the direction and time component but failure in magnitude can still implode the position. This process is aggravating by design because the field of math involved is stochastic calculus, a brutally difficult field due to the concept of randomness over time.
Fortunately, traders can compress the parallax in the options market by structuring transactions in such a manner where the magnitude component of the equation is effectively nullified. In other words, traders will frame the problem at hand as one involving direction and time. That's a pre-algebra equation that anyone can perform.
Think of it this way. When facing multiple attackers, the fighting art of Krav Maga (and other systems) recommends avoiding confrontations between threats on opposing planes. Instead, one should line the threats one behind the other. Of course, this positioning doesn't eliminate the number of attackers, but it flattens the battlefield where the opponent loses an advantage and the person being attacked has a more manageable crisis.
While not nearly as dramatic (hopefully), parallax compression in the options market operates under the same principle.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Compression Into Action</h2>
Let's look at a real-world example to bring the above concept to life. At the moment, PLTR stock is attempting to stabilize around the $90 level. Assuming it can achieve said stabilization, this level could represent an ideal launching point for a quick-fire bullish trade.
Statistically, PLTR stock demonstrates an upward bias. A position entered at the beginning of the week has a 55.3% chance of rising by the end of the week. The prior week's modest momentum doesn't appear to materially impact the aforementioned upward bias. Thus, it's reasonable speculation to go long here.

One idea that stands out is the 88/90 bull call spread for the options chain expiring April 25. This transaction involves buying the $88 call (at a time-of-writing ask of $575) and simultaneously selling the $90 call (at a bid of $450), resulting in a net debit paid of $125, the most that can be lost in the trade.
Should PLTR stock rise through the $90 short strike price at expiration, the trader collects the maximum reward, which is $75, a payout of 60%. And that's where the parallax compression is. The trader doesn't have to worry about how far up PLTR goes, just as long as it moves up (or stays where it is at $90).
With most other debit call spreads, the stock in question may need to rise by a not-insignificant magnitude to achieve profitability. With the 88/90 bull spread — assuming a market price of $90 — this parallax error is accounted for.

소니 그룹(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SONY#NYSE">SONY</a>)와 아폴로 글로벌 매니지먼트(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APO#NYSE">APO</a>)는 파라마운트 글로벌(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>)의 재무 기록에 접근하기 위해 파라마운트 글로벌과 논의 중인 것으로 알려졌으며, 이는 잠재적으로 260억 달러 규모의 인수로 이어질 수 있다.
사건의 전말 (What Happened): 파라마운트 글로벌은 현재 이 미국 미디어 기업 인수에 관심이 있는 소니와 아폴로와 재무 정보를 공유하기 위해 협상 중이라고 로이터통신이 이 문제에 정통한 소식통들을 인용해 보도했다.
이 기밀 논의는 민감한 상업 데이터의 교환을 허용하는 비공개 계약 조건을 마무리하는 것을 목표로 한다.
이 회사의 옵션 평가를 담당하는 파라마운트 특별 위원회는 최근 스카이댄스 미디어(Skydance Media)의 독점 기간 만료를 허용했다. 이로 인해 소니와 아폴로가 잠재적으로 260억 달러의 제안을 확고히 하고 스카이댄스 미디어의 경쟁 입찰에 도전할 수 있는 문이 열렸다.
그러나 이 소식통들은 진행 중인 논의가 거래를 보장하지는 않는다고 경고했다. 이 보도에 따르면 실제로 파라마운트의 특별위원회 대변인은 이에 대해 언급을 하지 않았다.
투자자는 WBI BullBear Quality 3000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBIL#NYSE">WBIL</a>)과 BlackRock Large Cap Core ETF(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLCR#NASDAQ">BLCR</a>)를 통해 소니에 노출될 수 있다.
이 사건의 중요성 (Why It Matters): 파라마운트의 재정에 소니와 아폴로가 관심을 갖고 있다는 소식은 인수를 처리할 소니의 재정 능력에 대한 우려가 있는 가운데 나온 것이다. 화요일 보고서에 따르면 이 제안된 거래는 소니의 현재 보유 현금을 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/05/38670043/sonys-bold-26b-paramount-bid-raises-eyebrows-can-they-finance-it">초과</a>하여 주가가 크게 하락했다고 한다.
이러한 우려에도 불구하고 시장 분석가들은 보다 명확한 자금 조달 계획이 거래의 잠재적 이익에 초점을 맞출 수 있다고 제안한다. 파라마운트, 소니, 아폴로 간의 진행 중인 논의 소식은 인수 자금 조달을 위한 소니의 전략에 대한 추가 통찰력을 제공할 수 있다.
5월 3일 보도된 바와 같이, 파라마운트의 주가는 소니와 아폴로의 입찰 발표 이후 급등했다. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/05/38620198/paramount-shares-jump-on-sony-apollo-bid-all-eyes-turn-to-shari-redstone-who-will-decide-me">스카이댄스 미디어</a>의 독점 기간 만료도 파라마운트의 미래를 둘러싼 추측을 가중시켰다.
