Memecoins erupted Monday as the cryptocurrency market made a sharp recovery following President Donald Trump&#8217;s ceasefire announcement in the Iran-Israel conflict.
What happened: Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based Dogwifhat led the gains, jumping more than 20% in the last 24 hours to become the market's third-most successful cryptocurrency. The coin&#8217;s volume popped 75% to $518 million, indicating high trader interest and liquidity.
Bonk, another Solana-based memecoin, lifted more than 13%, while Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>)-based Floki also made similar strides.

Meme heavyweights Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) and Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) also staged strong recoveries, surging 7.20% and 9%, respectively.
The meme coin market capitalization rose 9.52% to $52.74 billion in the last 24 hours, while trading volume recorded a 13.32% spike.
The Monday rally helped reverse some of last week&#8217;s losses, which were triggered by growing Middle East tensions and the U.S. involvement in the conflict. The memecoin market lost 26% of its value over the last week.

Notably, the Iranian Foreign Minister has denied any ceasefire agreement.

Dogwifhat Leaps 20%, Dogecoin, Shiba Inu Climb As Memecoins Spike After Trump Announces Iran-Israel Ceasefire

Elon Musk&#8217;s lawyers told a federal judge the tech billionaire "does not use a computer," an assertion meant to limit discovery in his lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAI and one that instantly collided with Musk's own social-media posts flaunting a well-used laptop.
What Happened: OpenAI last week accused Musk and his AI startup xAI of dragging their feet on document production. As reported first by Wired, Musk's attorneys replied Sunday that they had searched his email and cellphone and "Mr. Musk does not use a computer," insisting no additional files exist.
The claim surprised observers. Employees at X, formerly Twitter, say they have seen the owner type on a notebook, and Musk himself posted a photo in December, captioned, "This is a pic of my laptop," praising a Doge sticker he refuses to lose by upgrading.
<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">This is a pic of my laptop. It's about 3 years old. A guy in Germany gave me this cool sticker, so I don't want to upgrade it and lose the sticker. <a href="https://t.co/wJZbhpkus8">pic.twitter.com/wJZbhpkus8</a>

The filing is the latest volley in a widening legal battle. Musk sued OpenAI in February, alleging the once-non-profit lab now chases "corporate profit rather than the benefit of humanity." <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44828934/musk-could-not-tolerate-seeing-such-success-openai-says-he-abandoned-and-declared-them-doomed-then-tried-to-destroy-it-all">OpenAI countersued</a> in April, calling his takeover bid a "sham" and accusing him of "bad-faith tactics designed to seize control."
Why It Matters: Musk, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/05/45710505/elon-musks-government-efficiency-push-a-closer-look-at-his-financial-gains-and-losses">who left</a> the federal Department of Government Efficiency last month, wants to halt OpenAI's planned $40 billion fundraising by blocking its conversion to a fully for-profit structure. OpenAI argues his suit is harassment aimed at slowing its research pace.
OpenAI chief Sam Altman told the inaugural OpenAI Podcast last week that he "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46023822/sam-altman-says-he-didnt-think-elon-musk-would-abuse-government-power-tesla-ceo-hits-back-with-scam-altman-jibe">didn't think</a> Elon was going to abuse his power in the government to unfairly compete."

Altman added, "I regret to say I was wrong about that … I'm grateful the administration did the right thing and stood up to his behaviour."
Within hours, Musk fired back on X, writing, "Scam Altman strikes again."

Elon Musk's Lawyers Say He Doesn't 'Use A Computer,' But The Tesla CEO Has Touted An 'Ancient PC Laptop' With A Dogecoin Sticker More Than Once

Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) CTO Andrew "Boz" Bosworth has opened up about why he joined the Army Reserve as part of a new tech-focused unit alongside top executives from OpenAI and Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) — and how his decision was received internally at Meta.
What Happened: Earlier this month, the U.S. Army launched Detachment 201, a new initiative bringing Silicon Valley tech leaders into military service.
Alongside Bosworth, the cohort includes Palantir CTO Shyam Sankar, OpenAI Chief Product Officer Kevin Weil, and former OpenAI research head Bob McGrew.
In an interview with Blake Dodge, which was published on Monday, Bosworth said service had always interested him, but the timing and commitment never aligned — until now.&nbsp;
&#8220;I don't think I waited 10 minutes; I was like, ‘Yes, I would love to, it'd be the great honor of my life to do this,'&#8221; he told the journalist.

When answering, what was the internal response at Facebook-parent, he noted that it was "very, very positive."
Bosworth also said that his new role as a U.S. Army Reserve lieutenant colonel will remain strictly independent of his responsibilities at Meta, especially as the tech giant deepens its own defense-related partnerships.
&#8220;For example, in the Army, I won't be allowed to advise on anything AR-related. But there are a huge amount of other things I absolutely can contribute to,&#8221; he said during the interview.
Bosworth believes his contribution will be less about combat and more about solving logistical and technological challenges.
The Army is "eager to get assistance," he said, adding, "They're also doing great — and able to figure out what to do with that help when it comes. I've been super impressed with them."

Why It&#8217;s Important: Last month, Meta announced a partnership with defense tech startup Anduril Industries to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45687185/mark-zuckerbergs-meta-reunites-with-palmer-luckey-to-equip-us-soldiers-with-eagleeye-an-ai-powered-combat-headset-that-can-detect-drones">develop augmented reality</a> (AR) devices for the U.S. Army.
The newly introduced EagleEye system uses AI to enhance soldiers&#8217; sensory capabilities, enabling features like drone detection and target identification. It integrates Anduril&#8217;s autonomous software with Meta&#8217;s AI models.
The two companies have submitted a joint bid for an Army contract worth up to $100 million, part of a broader $22 billion initiative to modernize military wearables. If approved, it would be Meta's most significant partnership with the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45483220/money-spigot-thats-never-going-off-meta-reportedly-hiring-ex-pentagon-officials-as-they-target-defense-contracts">Pentagon to date</a>.
Price Action: Meta shares climbed 2.37% during Monday's regular session and gained an additional 0.91% in after-hours trading, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth Explains Why He Joined The Army Reserve Alongside OpenAI, Palantir Execs — Shares How People At Facebook-Parent Reacted

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) seeks to keep its responses to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration or NHTSA's questions regarding the company's FSD technology private, the regulator said.
What Happened: Tesla has invoked a federal law that "restricts NHTSA's ability to publicly release what the companies label as confidential,&#8221; Reuters reported on Monday. The agency reiterated that its investigation into the EV giant remains open.
Tesla maintains that the responses submitted to the regulator contain information that its competitors can use to improve self-driving technology and advanced driver assistance systems.
"Nefarious actors could also use the marked information to smear Tesla&#8217;s brand for the sake of notoriety," a legal representative for Tesla cited in the report said.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as the NHTSA had been reviewing Tesla's responses to the agency's questions regarding <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46041090/tesla-faces-safety-questions-from-regulators-ahead-of-robotaxi-launch-in-austin">the FSD's performance</a> in poor weather conditions.
FSD, or Full Self-Driving, is a crucial aspect of Tesla's plans as it turns towards autonomous vehicles and Robotaxis. Elon Musk's EV giant officially rolled out its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46045542/tesla-launches-robotaxi-in-austin-elon-musk-calls-it-a-culmination-of-a-decade-of-hard-work">Robotaxi in Austin</a> with an invite-only event for social media influencers.
However, questions are being raised about the technology after a Tesla Model 3 was involved in an incident earlier this month, where the occupant of the car was in a potentially life-threatening position as the vehicle was reportedly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45945298/tesla-model-3-on-fsd-mode-struck-by-train-after-getting-trapped-on-railroad-tracks-report">struck by a train</a> after it got stuck on a railroad track while on full self-driving.

Tesla Wants To Keep Its Texas Self-Driving Data Private Amid Austin Robotaxi Launch: Report

Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood predicts that electric vehicles will undercut gasoline-powered cars economically within three years, citing China&#8217;s explosive growth in electric vehicles as a roadmap for the U.S. market transformation.
What Happened: Wood wrote on X that &#8220;China is pointing the way forward for EV sales in the U.S. Why? Economics, as usual. EVs costs and prices will drop well below those for &#8216;like-for-like&#8217; gas-powered vehicles during the next three years.&#8221;
Her comments responded to climate investor Ramez Naam&#8216;s post, highlighting that China now sells more EVs annually than the U.S. sells total vehicles of all types. 
BloombergNEF data shows China&#8217;s EV sales surged from near zero in 2016 to an estimated 18 million units by 2026, while U.S. total vehicle sales remain relatively flat at 16 million.

Why It Matters: The projection comes as Tesla Inc.

Cathie Wood Says EVs Will Outprice Gas Cars Within 3 Years, Citing China's Rapid Growth

Ex-executives of a cryptocurrency hedge fund are reportedly aiming to raise $100 million to invest in the BNB (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/bnb/usd">BNB</a>) token, in a move seen as replicating Michael Saylor's Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) treasury strategy.
What happened: Former executives of venture capital firm Coral Capital Holdings are behind the initiative, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-06-23/hedge-fund-execs-eye-100-million-for-accumulating-bnb-token?embedded-checkout=true">reported </a>Monday, citing an investor document.
The report said that the fundraising is supposed to be completed this month, after which the accumulation of BNB tokens will start through a Nasdaq-listed company, soon to be renamed Build &amp; Build Corporation.
Binance founder Changpeng "CZ" Zhao acknowledged the development on X, stating, "BNB ‘microstrategy' coming to a company near you!"&nbsp;
However, he added that such initiatives were not driven by him or Binance and emphasized that BNB is a "public blockchain native coin."

Circle Internet, AMD, Nvidia, Hims & Hers, Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Frederick W. "Fred" Smith, whose Yale term paper sketching a coast-to-coast overnight-delivery network drew only a "C," used the same blueprint six years later to launch Federal Express (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>), upending global logistics and making him a billionaire. Smith died Saturday, June 21, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/46045693/fedex-founder-fred-smith-dies-at-80-marine-veteran-wwii-memorial-champion-and-visionary-ceo-mourned-by-satya-nadella-marc-benioff">in Memphis</a> at 80, the company confirmed.
What Happened: According to a <a href="https://www.entrepreneur.com/growing-a-business/fred-smith/197542">report</a> from 2008 by Entrepreneur, in 1965, the 21-year-old economics major proposed routing time-sensitive packages through a single, jet-served sorting hub rather than relying on passenger airlines. His professor, scrawled a now-famous note, "The concept is interesting and well-formed, but in order to earn better than a ‘C,' the idea must be feasible."
After a Marine tour in Vietnam, Smith tapped a $4 million inheritance and raised $91 million more to prove the professor wrong, incorporating Federal Express in 1971 and launching service from Memphis two years later. By the time he retired as CEO in 2022, FedEx flew the world's largest all-cargo jet fleet and handled nine million parcels a day.

Historians say the anecdote shows how academic skepticism spurred one of the 20th century's biggest business innovations. Smith often used the story to encourage entrepreneurs to ignore early naysayers. "Feasibility is sometimes a matter of capital and will," he told Yale graduates in 2008 when the university awarded him an honorary doctorate.
Why It Matters: Fred Smith turned Yale's "C" on his overnight-delivery paper into FedEx's hub-and-spoke empire, much like Bill Gates parlayed a Harvard dropout slip into Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) after a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43423004/bill-gates-early-departure-from-harvard-not-surprising-says-former-professor-i-just-wish-id-invested-in-him">professor admitted</a> he "wasn't surprised" but wishes he had invested early.
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk similarly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/24/06/39547388/happy-birthday-elon-musk-53-facts-and-figures-about-tesla-spacex-ceo-on-his-53rd-birthday">walked away</a> from Stanford's Ph.D. program after two days and later sold Zip2 for $307 million, proof that academic exit ramps can lead to billion-dollar roads.
Virgin Galactic Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPCE#NYSE">SPCE</a>) founder Richard Branson <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/21/04/20802692/5-things-you-might-not-know-about-richard-branson">nearly failed out</a> of school, left at 16 and built Virgin Group's 400-company portfolio, while Mark Zuckerberg insists a "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/25/04/45059231/mark-zuckerberg-says-theres-going-to-have-to-be-a-reckoning-about-college-degrees-and-whether-theyre-truly-worth-it-anymore">reckoning</a>" over degrees is coming, even though dropping out powered Facebook's ascent. Each story echoes Smith&#8217;s in some way; it shows how classroom doubt supplied the spark, but relentless execution turned low grades into legendary brands.

Fred Smith Was Told By Yale Professor That His Overnight-Delivery Idea Would Only Earn Him A 'C' — The FedEx Founder Turned It Into A $54 Billion Logistics Giant

Cryptocurrency bettors sharply raised their odds on Monday that the United States and Iran would strike a nuclear deal in 2025 after President Donald Trump confirmed a ceasefire in the ongoing Middle East conflict.
What Happened: The odds for the betting contract titled &#8220;US-Iran nuclear deal in 2025?&#8221; <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/us-x-iran-nuclear-deal-in-2025?tid=1750725156652">soared </a>from 34% to 51% in the last 24 hours on the decentralized prediction platform Polymarket.
More than $2 million has already been wagered on the outcome, and the market will vote "Yes" should an official agreement be reached between the U.S. and Iran over Iranian nuclear research and/or nuclear weapon development before 2025 ends.
The rules stipulated that multilateral agreements that include the U.S. and Iran would also qualify for confirmation.
Polymarket, based on Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">POL</a>), allows users to buy &#8220;Yes&#8221; and &#8220;No&#8221; shares in USDC (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">USDC</a>). The shares representing the correct outcome are paid out $1 USDC each upon market resolution.
Note that Polymarket is not <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41838037/will-polymarket-return-to-the-us-after-getting-trump-victory-right-ceo-says-its-part-of-the-plan">available to U.S. residents</a> due to regulatory restrictions.

Why It Matters: The spike in odds comes after Trump announced that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46065102/trump-says-there-is-a-ceasefire-between-isreal-and-iran"> Iran and Israel have agreed to a &#8220;complete and total ceasefire</a>.&#8221; Interestingly, the Iranian Foreign Minister denied any such agreement.
The U.S. entered the conflict by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46043305/donald-trump-announces-spectacular-military-success-as-us-strikes-key-iranian-nuclear-sites">bombing three crucial Iranian nuclear sites</a>, which Trump termed a "spectacular military success." This sent the Polymarket odds of a nuclear deal tumbling.
Iran said last week that it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46041118/iran-halts-nuclear-talks-with-us-no-negotiations-until-israeli-aggression-stops-says-foreign-minister">won't engage in nuclear program discussions</a> while under attack from Israel.&nbsp;
Israel attacked Iran earlier this month to eliminate what it said was a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/46011774/israel-launches-overnight-strikes-on-iran-targeting-nuclear-site-military-infrastructure-with-40-fighter-jets">nuclear threat from its Middle Eastern adversary.</a> Trump has disagreed with his intelligence director, Tulsi Gabbard, regarding Iran's nuclear capabilities, asserting that Iran can build a nuclear weapon.

US-Iran Nuclear Deal In 2025? Crypto Bettors On Polymarket See Strong Chance After Trump's Ceasefire Announcement

The U.S. House of Representatives has officially banned Meta Platforms Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) WhatsApp from staff devices, citing serious cybersecurity concerns and recommending rival apps as safer alternatives.
What Happened: In a memo circulated Monday, the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer informed House staff that WhatsApp is now prohibited on all government-managed devices, reported Reuters.
The Office of Cybersecurity flagged the app as "a high risk to users due to the lack of transparency in how it protects user data, absence of stored data encryption and potential security risks involved with its use."
The memo encouraged House staff to use messaging platforms deemed more secure, including Signal, Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) iMessage and FaceTime, Microsoft Corporation's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) Teams and Amazon.com, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Wickr, the report added.

Why It&#8217;s Important: The move comes months after reports that Israeli spyware company Paragon Solutions targeted WhatsApp users, including journalists and civil society members, the report said.

Earlier this month, WhatsApp also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45988833/iran-says-whatsapp-a-tool-for-israeli-surveillance-meta-hits-back-calling-it-false-reports">denied Iranian government claims</a> that it is being used by Israel for surveillance. Iran warned citizens against using WhatsApp, Telegram and similar apps, calling them tools for Israeli spying.
WhatsApp responded by emphasizing its end-to-end encryption, refusal to share mass user data with governments and lack of precise location tracking.
Price Action: Meta shares rose 2.37% during Monday's regular trading session and added another 0.91% in after-hours trading, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Apple Liquid Glass Gets Tweaks In iOS 26 Beta 2 After Early Testers Slam Readability Issues: Here's What Else Has Changed

U.S. futures markets are rallying on Monday night, after President Donald Trump announced a &#8220;ceasefire timeline&#8221; for the conflict between Iran and Israel. 
The S&amp;P 500 Futures trade at 6,112.50, up 0.58%, followed by Nasdaq Futures at 22,256.00, up 0.88%, and finally Dow Futures at 43,136.00, up 0.55%, at the time of writing this, just hours after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46059497/stocks-rise-oil-tumbles-despite-irans-strikes-on-us-bases-whats-driving-markets-monday">Iran&#8217;s missile strikes</a> against U.S. bases located in Iran and Qatar on Monday.
Trump shared a post on Truth Social on Monday, announcing a &#8220;Complete and Total CEASEFIRE,&#8221; at which point, he says, &#8220;THE 12 DAY WAR&#8221; will be considered &#8220;ended.&#8221;

He further adds that this war could have gone on for years, destroying the entire Middle East, &#8220;but it didn&#8217;t, and never will,&#8221; Trump says, while congratulating both countries and everyone involved in this exercise.

The Foreign Minister of Iran, Syed Abbas Araghchi, has, however, refuted claims of a ceasefire, saying that there was &#8220;no agreement&#8221; for cessation of military operations, in a post on X. 
He does go on to state that if the &#8220;Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression&#8221; against Iran by 4 AM Tehran time, then Iran will have no intention of continuing with its response. Araghchi adds that any &#8220;final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later.&#8221;

Commodities

Dow Futures Jump Over 200 Points As Trump Announces Ceasefire, But Iran Says 'No Agreement' — Crude Plunges

On Monday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest made significant trades involving Circle Internet Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>), Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>), Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>). These trades highlight Ark&#8217;s strategic positioning in the market amidst evolving industry dynamics.
The Circle Internet Trade
Ark Invest executed a notable sell-off of Circle Internet shares across multiple ETFs, including Ark Fintech Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKF#BATS">ARKF</a>), ARK Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#BATS">ARKK</a>), and the ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKW#BATS">ARKW</a>). The sale amounted to a total of 415,844 shares. Circle shares surged more than 9% on Monday, closing at $263.45. At that price, the value of Ark's trade totaled $109.55 million.
This move comes as Circle&#8217;s stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/46056731/circle-internet-group-stock-climbs-to-new-highs-whats-going-on">reached new heights</a> following its announcement of a partnership with Fiserv to develop stablecoin-enabled solutions for financial institutions. The collaboration aims to enhance the adoption of stablecoins within the Fiserv ecosystem.
The Robinhood Trade
Ark Invest&#8217;s ARKK fund acquired 319,640 shares of Robinhood Markets Inc. Robinhood stock closed at $76.35 on Monday, valuing the transaction at $24.4 million.
This purchase follows a recent trend where a Robinhood director <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/46038740/robinhood-director-sells-millions-but-hood-stock-eyes-gains">sold millions</a> in shares, yet the stock continues to show potential for gains. As of June 2025, director Baiju Bhatt sold up to $31 million worth of stock, according to an earlier report. It should be noted, however, that another director, Christopher Payne, purchased nearly $2 million worth of stock in the same period.
The AMD Trade
Ark Invest made a sizable move on AMD, with its ARKF, ARKK, and ARKW funds collectively picking up 130,256 shares. AMD closed at $129.58 on Monday, putting the total value of the trades at $16.9 million.
This decision aligns with recent positive analyst forecasts, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/price-target/25/06/46051985/amd-to-rally-more-than-36-here-are-10-top-analyst-forecasts-for-monday">predict a potential rally</a> of over 36% for AMD. The stock&#8217;s recent surge is attributed to rumors of a significant &#8220;GPU win&#8221; with Amazon Web Services and a favorable analyst rating update from Piper Sandler.
The TSMC Trade
Ark&#8217;s ARKK and ARKW funds acquired a total of 65,102 shares of TSMC. This move follows a series of analyst upgrades for TSM, driven by its strategic positioning in the semiconductor industry. With TSMC closing at $210.32 on Monday, the trades were worth approximately $13.7 million.
Analysts have been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/46030897/analysts-keep-boosting-taiwan-semiconductor-stock-heres-why">boosting their ratings</a>, recognizing TSM&#8217;s critical role in the global tech supply chain, as reported by Benzinga.

What Happened: Bitcoin topped $106,000 in the evening before easing to around $105,000, marking a sharp recovery from the dip below $100,000 during the weekend.
Ethereum recorded a steeper rise, sailing above $2,400 following the drop to $2,100.
The rally came after Trump announced on Truth Social that Israel and Iran have agreed to a &#8220;complete and total ceasefire.&#8221; The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46065102/trump-says-there-is-a-ceasefire-between-isreal-and-iran">cessation of hostilities</a> would unfold in a phased manner, he added.
The spike hit bearish traders as over $365 million in short positions were wiped out from the cryptocurrency market in the last 24 hours. A further $280 million risked liquidation if Bitcoin reclaimed $110,000.
Bitcoin&#8217;s open interest rose 2.52%, while the funds locked in Ethereum's derivatives contracts surged nearly 8% in the last 24 hours.

Analyst Notes: Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst Michaël van de Poppe said Bitcoin's dip below $100,000 is likely "the bottom of this correction."
"Massive move upwards, through which Bitcoin breaks through crucial resistance zones. I think we&#8217;ll continue to make higher lows &amp; attack a new all-time high for Bitcoin in July," Van de Poppe projected.

Bitcoin Tops $106,000; Ethereum, Dogecoin Surge As Trump Announces Iran-Israel Ceasefire — Analyst Sees 23.6% BTC Spike If This Happens

In 2017, "Shark Tank" investor Kevin O'Leary recounted a moment when he advised a young entrepreneur to prioritize his $5 million startup over his romantic relationship.
What Happened: Speaking to Inc. about the real cost of building a business, O'Leary warned that entrepreneurship often comes with personal sacrifices many underestimate.
"There is no soccer game on Saturday. There's no Sunday dinner with the family," he said. "Because some guy in China or in India, or some woman out there, is kicking your a&#x2A;&#x2A;, because we&#8217;re in a global competition."
He recalled a memorable moment during a late-night class when a student shared his dilemma: his fiancée had asked him to choose between their relationship and his thriving compliance tech startup.

The business, still run from his dorm, was already generating $5 million in annual revenue. The class waited for O'Leary's response. "Let's be pragmatic," he told the student. "Which is easier to replace — your business or your fiancée?"
The crowd went silent.
O'Leary defended his advice by highlighting that successful relationships with entrepreneurs require a deep understanding. "If you&#8217;re going to get in a relationship with an entrepreneur&#8230; you have to understand what drives them," he said.
He asserted that building a successful company requires unwavering commitment, resilience and often, personal compromise. "It's not for everybody," O'Leary said. "Don't do it if you don't have the stamina to get kicked around and driven into the ground and get up and do it again."

Why It's Important: Previously, in an episode of The Playbook, billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban dismissed the idea of work-life balance for those aiming to excel.
He gave the example of his own journey, stating that he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/25/06/45939593/mark-cuban-challenges-concept-of-work-life-balance-for-high-achievers-not-working-would-be-a-sacrifice">didn't take a vacation for seven years</a> after starting his first business in his 20s, spending those early years learning to code in a rundown apartment.
Former President Barack Obama also believes that achieving excellence <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/05/45709843/barack-obama-once-said-work-life-balance-isnt-always-possible-if-you-want-to-be-successful-you-can-have-it-all-but-you-cant-have-it-all-at-once">often requires sacrificing work-life balance</a>, at least temporarily. In an appearance on The Pivot Podcast, he said success in fields like politics, business, or sports demands periods of intense, unbalanced effort.
Obama recalled the grueling 18-month stretch of his first presidential campaign, during which his wife Michelle Obama managed their family while working full-time. After becoming president, he prioritized family dinners at 6:30 p.m. daily to restore balance and stay grounded.

Kevin O'Leary Once Told A Young Founder To Pick His $5 Million A Year Startup Over His Demanding Fiancée — 'Which Is Easier To Replace?'

The Iranian regime faces a potential collapse following recent military confrontations. The situation has been exacerbated by U.S. actions targeting Iran&#8217;s nuclear facilities, significantly weakening Iran&#8217;s strategic position.
What Happened: The Iranian regime is nearing collapse, according to economist Nouriel Roubini, following a series of military confrontations. He said in an op-ed penned in Project Syndicate on Monday that the destabilization stems from the U.S. targeting Iran&#8217;s nuclear facilities, which have significantly weakened Iran&#8217;s strategic position.

Since October 7, 2023, Iran has been involved in conflicts with Israel, which retaliated against Iranian-backed groups like Hamas and Hezbollah. The situation escalated when Israel attacked Iran&#8217;s nuclear sites, prompting U.S. intervention to ensure the complete destruction of these facilities.
Despite Iran&#8217;s attempts to counterattack, its military capabilities have been severely diminished. The regime&#8217;s focus has shifted to survival, with its ability to threaten U.S. forces or disrupt regional energy supplies now limited. 
&#8220;The regime is focusing on its survival, but its collapse is likely in the coming months,&#8221; wrote Roubini.
The Iranian government&#8217;s internal struggles are compounded by economic hardships, including rampant inflation and poverty.
Roubini, popularly known as Dr. Doom, highlights that the Iranian populace, burdened by economic mismanagement and geopolitical failures, may soon rise up against the regime. This potential uprising is seen as a path to long-term stability in the Middle East, with the possibility of improved relations between Israel and its neighbors.

Why It Matters: President Donald Trump announced a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46065102/trump-says-there-is-a-ceasefire-between-isreal-and-iran">ceasefire between Israel and Iran</a> on Monday, marking a significant step towards de-escalation. Trump praised both nations for their resilience and intelligence in avoiding a prolonged conflict.
The State Department issued a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/travel/25/06/46045416/us-issues-worldwide-caution-after-strikes-on-irans-nuclear-sites-state-department-warns-of-airspace-closures-travel-chaos-and-rising-threats-to-americans-abroad">Worldwide Caution security alert</a> on Sunday, a day after U.S. airstrikes targeted Iranian nuclear facilities, warning American citizens to remain vigilant while traveling abroad.
Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu clarified that while <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46018790/benjamin-netanyahu-says-he-didnt-present-regime-change-as-a-goal-in-iran-but-it-could-be-the-result">regime change</a> in Iran was not Israel&#8217;s goal, it could be an outcome of the ongoing tensions. This statement underscores the complex geopolitical landscape, where the Iranian people&#8217;s role in determining their leadership is emphasized.
However, Russian President Vladimir Putin has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46010064/ayatollah-assassination-discussion-rejected-by-putin-i-do-not-even-want-to-discuss-this-possibility">rejected discussions</a> about the potential assassination of Iran&#8217;s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, highlighting the unity of the Iranian people around their leaders. This unity could play a crucial role in the regime&#8217;s survival amidst external pressures.

The restaurant sector could be the next to be disrupted by rising use cases <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45316296/soundhounds-q1-fueled-by-polaris-strategic-acquisitions-and-record-pipeline-despite-missing-revenue-expectations">for artificial intelligence.</a>
Here's a look at how Dine Brands Global Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIN#NYSE">DIN</a>) is embracing the technology.
What Happened: If you're one of the consumers who go to restaurants and order the same thing, or a consumer who can't decide what to order, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence">artificial intelligence</a> could soon play a role in recommending menu selections during your next visit.
Dine Brands is planning to roll out artificial intelligence in its restaurants to help with menu recommendations and boost sales.
Called its "personalization engine," the AI-powered technology was built using the Q generative AI assistant from Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), as <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/applebees-and-ihop-plan-to-introduce-ai-in-restaurants-61770ca5?mod=rss_Technology">reported </a>by the Wall Street Journal.
Using generative AI, the personalization engine automatically recommends items to customers based on their past ordering history, using the company's loyalty program. For those without an ordering history, the recommendation could include frequently purchased items as recommendations.
The technology could be used to upsell additional products or recommend more expensive products. The AI recommendations could be added to servers' tablets and tabletop tablets that customers order from in the future.
Along with helping customers make food decisions and place their orders, Dine Brands is using AI technology to help detect when tables are ready to be cleared and for managers to help with day-to-day operations such as staffing.

Why It's Important: Dine Brands is the latest restaurant company to embrace AI technology. Other companies, such as those in the fast food sector, have been using technology for drive-thru services and other operations.
McDonald's and Yum Brands are named in the Wall Street Journal report as restaurants embracing AI inside restaurant locations.
AI can be used to help with staffing, boost productivity, forecast food items and inventory control, all items that could save restaurants money.
Companies such as SoundHound AI Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOUN#NASDAQ">SOUN</a>) are also jumping in, similar to the Dine Brands technology, by giving recommendations to consumers on products based on ordering history and popularity.
Wendy's is also named in the report with reference to its past plans to use AI technology for drive-thrus and for dynamic pricing, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/restaurants/24/02/37407897/wendys-clarifies-dynamic-pricing-comments-after-public-outcry-elizabeth-warren-criticism">received severe backlash.</a>
Artificial intelligence is disrupting many sectors and could replace human jobs in some areas, including the restaurant sector. Dine Brands and others are likely balancing the potential positives from AI that could help with customer satisfaction, while also enjoying benefits like higher sales and lower costs.
DIN Price Action: Dine Brands stock closed Monday at $27.15 versus a 52-week trading range of $18.63 to $38.68. Dine Brand stock is down 9.8% year-to-date in 2025.
