CNX Resources Promotes Alan Shepard To President In Addition To His Current Role As CFO

The Trump administration has unveiled a new trade deal framework with China, but experts remain doubtful about its long-term viability and warn that the U.S. may be giving up its strategic advantage in the agreement.
What Happened: The deal aims to de-escalate tensions between the two nations, with both sides agreeing to roll back actions taken since the initial deal was struck on May 12. However, the deal is still pending approval from President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/06/11/trump-announced-another-deal-with-china-will-it-hold-00400288">reported</a> Politico.
Notably, the U.S. has agreed to further concessions, including easing restrictions on the export of certain sensitive products to China and resuming the issuance of student visas for Chinese nationals. In contrast, China has merely reiterated its earlier promise—made a month ago—to lift the blockade on critical mineral shipments. Despite the progress, experts are cautious. Derek Scissors, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, said, "This is another band aid.&#8221; He warns that China could easily reinstate the blockade on rare earths, a move that could severely impact global supply chains.
Former&nbsp;deputy assistant U.S. Trade Representative&nbsp;Emily Kilcrease&nbsp;believes the deal sets a &#8220;very dangerous precedent&#8221; by potentially weakening U.S. export controls.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, Marc Busch,&nbsp;a professor of international business&nbsp;diplomacy at Georgetown University, adds that China&#8217;s rhetoric remains unchanged, casting doubt on the sustainability of the trade truce. "China has always had this trump card, they know how to use it..,&#8221; cautioned Busch.

Why It Matters: The recent deal follows the implementation of the Geneva trade consensus, which resulted in a 90-day pause on tariffs imposed on China. This agreement was reached <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/macro-notification/25/06/45876366/howard-lutnick-says-us-and-china-reached-a-framework-to-implement-geneva-consensus-following-trump-xi-call-csi-300-index-gains">after two days</a> of high-level discussions in London.
Meanwhile, Treasury Secretary&nbsp;Scott Bessent&nbsp;has suggested that the Trump administration may consider extending the current 90-day tariff pause beyond July 9 for the U.S.&#8217;s top trading partners. This extension, however, is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/45898040/scott-bessent-signals-willingness-to-extend-tariff-pause-for-good-faith-negotiations-trump-thinks-not-a-necessity">contingent </a>on the partners&#8217; &#8220;good faith&#8221; in ongoing trade negotiations.
These developments indicate a potential shift in the U.S.-China trade dynamic, with ongoing negotiations and agreements potentially shaping future trade relations.

'This Is Another Band-Aid,' Say Experts, Questioning Long-Term Viability And Efficacy Of US-China Trade Deal: 'China Always Had This Trump Card'

U.S. Marines will deploy to Los Angeles streets within 48 hours with authority to detain civilians, escalating federal-state tensions as California sues to block military involvement in immigration enforcement.
What Happened: President Donald Trump ordered Marines to deploy on Los Angeles streets amid ongoing protests against immigration raids, despite objections from California Governor Gavin Newsom, reported Reuters. The deployment marks the first <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45830221/gavin-newsom-calls-deployment-of-national-guard-in-los-angeles-unlawful-says-there-was-no-problem-until-trump-got-involved-serious-breach-of-state-sovereignty">federal activation of National Guard </a>without gubernatorial consent since 1965.
The Marines concluded specialized training, including de-escalation and crowd control techniques. Under Title 10 authority, they can temporarily detain individuals interfering with Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations or assaulting federal officers, according to Northern Command.
Army Major General Scott Sherman confirmed Marines will not carry live ammunition in rifles, but will carry live rounds.
The protests erupted in response to a series of immigration raids. ICE operations <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45854643/home-depot-targeted-in-immigration-raids-amid-la-protests-threatening-customer-traffic">targeted multiple locations, </a>including The Home Depot Inc.

Why It Matters: California filed suit Tuesday seeking a temporary restraining order, with hearings scheduled Thursday in San Francisco federal court.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta warned the federal troop deployment could violate the 1878 Posse Comitatus Act restricting military involvement in civilian law enforcement. The Trump administration contends the president has discretion to determine when &#8220;rebellion or danger of rebellion&#8221; requires a military response. Demonstrations spread nationwide to New York, Atlanta, Chicago, and other major cities. ICE operations averaged 2,000 daily arrests, significantly exceeding the 311 daily average under former President Biden. The escalation occurs as activists plan over 1,800 anti-Trump demonstrations Saturday coinciding with Trump&#8217;s 79th birthday. Read Next:

McDonald&#8217;s Corp. (MCD) today experienced a Power Inflow, a significant event for those who follow where smart money goes and value order flow analytics in their trading decisions. 
Today, at 10:28 AM on June 11th, a significant trading signal occurred for McDonald&#8217;s Corp., (MCD) as it demonstrated a Power Inflow at a price of $300.12. This indicator is crucial for traders who want to know directionally where institutions and so-called "smart money" moves in the market.

The Power Inflow points to a possible uptrend in McDonald's stock, marking a potential entry point for traders looking to capitalize on the expected upward movement. Traders with this signal closely watch for sustained momentum in McDonald&#8217;s stock price, interpreting this event as a bullish sign.
Signal description
Order flow analytics, aka transaction or market flow analysis, separate and study both the retail and institutional volume rate of orders (flow). It involves analyzing the flow of buy and sell orders, along with size, timing, and other associated characteristics and patterns, to gain insights and make more informed trading decisions. This particular indicator is interpreted as a bullish signal by active traders.&nbsp;
The Power Inflow occurs within the first two hours of the market open and generally signals the trend that helps gauge the stock's overall direction, powered by institutional activity in the stock, for the remainder of the day.&nbsp;
By incorporating order flow analytics into their trading strategies, market participants can better interpret market conditions, identify trading opportunities, and potentially improve their trading performance. But let's not forget that while watching smart money flow can provide valuable insights, it is crucial to incorporate effective risk management strategies to protect capital and mitigate potential losses. Employing a consistent and effective risk management plan helps traders navigate the uncertainties of the market in a more controlled and calculated manner, increasing the likelihood of long-term success

McDonald's Stock Rises 1% After Key Trading Signal

Editor&#8217;s Note: The story has been updated to include Boeing's comments.
An Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner by&nbsp;Boeing Co.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) crashed on Thursday near the Ahmedabad airport, with 242 passengers on board. The flight was en route to London Gatwick from Ahmedabad.
What Happened:&nbsp;The Air India flight, AI171, met with a tragic fate during takeoff from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on Thursday.
The passenger aircraft, a Boeing 787 Dreamliner with a capacity of 300, crashed in the Meghani area of the city. Thick smoke was seen rising from Dharpur near Meghaninagar, suggesting a major fire likely caused by the substantial fuel load carried for the long-haul flight to London. Emergency response units and fire brigade teams have been deployed to the scene.
Boeing tells Benzinga, &#8220;We are aware of initial reports and are working to gather more information.&#8221;

Why It Matters: This incident adds to the recent challenges faced by Boeing. In 2024, a Boeing 737-800 operated by South Korea's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42716905/boeing-in-spotlight-after-fatal-737-800-crash-in-south-korea-stock-declined-28-amid-deepening-2024-challenges">JejuAir crashed</a>, killing 179 of 181 passengers. This raised serious questions about Boeing&#8217;s safety record and led to a 30% stock decline in the same year.
In May, the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) moved to dismiss a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45689735/us-justice-department-seeks-to-dismiss-boeings-fraud-charges-on-737-max-crashes-that-killed-over-300">criminal fraud</a> charge against Boeing, linked to two fatal 737 MAX plane crashes that claimed 346 lives. This decision followed an agreement between Boeing and the Justice Department.
In January 2013, the entire global fleet of Boeing 787 Dreamliners was grounded following a series of safety incidents linked to the aircraft&#8217;s lithium-ion batteries. The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) responded by issuing an emergency airworthiness directive, requiring airlines to prove the safety of the batteries before resuming operations. Aviation authorities in Europe, Japan, and other regions quickly followed suit, grounding all Dreamliners operated by eight airlines worldwide. Boeing, while standing by the integrity of the 787, worked with regulators and airlines to develop technical solutions, including redesigning the battery system and adding fireproof containment, before the aircraft was cleared to return to service about three months later
During Thursday&#8217;s pre-market trading session, shares of Boeing declined 7.2%. On a year-to-date basis, it surged 24.51%.

Boeing Dreamliner Carrying Over 200 Passengers Crashes Shortly After Takeoff Near India's Ahmedabad: BA Stock Falls Over 7% In Thursday Pre-Market (UPDATED)

Something's shifting in the bond market, with a new wave of unease creeping in, and some of Wall Street's most experienced voices observing a sombre silence.
What Happened: On Wednesday, Spencer Hakimian, the founder of Tolou Capital Management, shared a post on X highlighting a growing consensus among the world&#8217;s leading fixed income traders that U.S. Treasuries are no longer the safe bet that they once were.
According to the screenshot of the Bloomberg article shared by Hakimian, large fixed income operators, such as DoubleLine Capital, Pacific Investment Management Co. (PIMCO), and TCW Group, are all backing away from long-dated U.S. government bonds. 
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45898797/trump-and-jd-vance-push-fed-to-slash-interest-rates-after-mild-inflation-report-calling-current-policy-monetary-malpractice">Trump And JD Vance Push Fed To Slash Interest Rates After Mild Inflation Report, Calling Current Policy &#8216;Monetary Malpractice&#8217;</a>
They're instead opting for shorter-term Treasuries, citing escalating federal debt and interest-rate risks, highlighting deepening anxiety in the U.S. fiscal trajectory. 
While sharing the screenshot, Hakimian writes, &#8220;The best bond traders in the world telling you straight up to stop buying bonds,&#8221; adding that it&#8217;s because &#8220;our country is bankrupt,&#8221; and no one is bold enough to fix it.

In another post on X, just a few minutes before this one, Hakimian highlights the growing U.S. entitlement spending, which he says is going up 15% year-over-year. &#8220;No one cares,&#8221; he says, adding that neither party can implement a solution, as &#8220;we&#8217;re selling bonds into oblivion.&#8221;
&#8220;Our currency has lost all its value against real currencies like Gold and Bitcoin,&#8221; he says, while saying that the U.S. is headed right into the &#8220;graveyard of failed empires&#8221; because of this problem. Hakimian concludes by saying, &#8220;invest accordingly.&#8221;

Former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers recently called the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45686699/larry-summers-issues-stark-warning-the-big-beautiful-bill-is-actually-a-prescription-for-deadly-dangerous-decline">bill a prescription for</a> &#8220;deadly, dangerous decline,&#8221; while calling it a setup for a potential &#8220;Liz Truss moment,&#8221; referring to the former British Prime Minister&#8217;s short reign, which was upended by turmoil in the bond market.
Even Trump-ally, Elon Musk, has come out in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45635854/elon-musk-disappointed-with-trumps-big-beautiful-bill-says-it-undermines-the-work-that-the-doge-team-is-doing">criticism of the bill</a>, saying that it "undermines the work" that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been doing under his leadership.

Etsy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETSY#NASDAQ">ETSY</a>), which operates two-sided online marketplaces that connect millions of passionate and creative buyers and sellers around the world, today announced the pricing of $650 million aggregate principal amount of 1.00% convertible senior notes due 2030 (the "notes") in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933,&nbsp;as&nbsp;amended&nbsp;(the&nbsp;"Securities&nbsp;Act").&nbsp;Etsy also granted the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, within a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which the notes are first issued, up to an additional $50 million aggregate principal amount of notes.&nbsp;The sale of the notes is expected to close on June 16, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
The notes will be general unsecured obligations of Etsy and will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2025, at a rate of 1.00% per year. The notes will mature on June 15, 2030, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The initial conversion rate will be 11.6570 shares of Etsy's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $85.79 per share). The initial conversion price of the notes represents a premium of approximately 42.5% over the last reported sale price of Etsy's common stock on June 11, 2025. The notes will be convertible into cash, shares of&nbsp;Etsy's common stock or a combination of cash and&nbsp;shares of&nbsp;Etsy's&nbsp;common&nbsp;stock,&nbsp;at&nbsp;Etsy's election.&nbsp;
Etsy estimates that the net proceeds from the offering will be approximately $639.3 million (or approximately $688.5 million if the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional notes in full), after deducting the initial purchasers' discount and estimated offering expenses payable by Etsy. Etsy expects to use approximately $150.0 million of the net proceeds from the offering to repurchase shares of Etsy's common stock as described below, and the remainder of the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment or repurchase, at or prior to maturity, of our existing debt securities.

NexGen Energy Ltd.&nbsp; (TSX:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NXE#TSX">NXE</a>) (NYSE:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NXE#NYSE">NXE</a>) (ASX: NXG)&nbsp;("NexGen" or the "Company")&nbsp;is pleased to announce that the Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment has granted approval for NexGen's 2025 Site Program (the "Program") at its 100%-owned Rook I Property in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. The Program includes the establishment of a temporary exploration airstrip, expansion of the exploration accommodation camp facilities by 373 beds and site access road improvements.
The Program will commence in the coming weeks and conclude with camp commissioning in Q1 2026. This program builds on NexGen's disciplined, strategic approach to implementing infrastructure enhancements required to support the Company's exploration programs at PCE and that forecast across NexGen's dominant land package in northwestern Saskatchewan into the future.
The drill results of high-grade basement hosted mineralization discovered at PCE 3.5km east from the Arrow deposit indicate another significant scale zone "Arrow style" of mineralization is materializing and warrant these infrastructure enhancements incorporating best practice safety and environmental principles.
Incorporating NexGen's longstanding approach to economic capacity building, the Program will prioritize Local Priority Area participation, generating new employment and contracting opportunities for Indigenous and community members, reflecting NexGen's industry leading and genuine approach to local communities.

Airbus SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EADSF#OTC">EADSF</a>) CEO Christian Scherer says the aircraft manufacturer can reach its 2025 delivery target despite delays due to supply chain issues.
What Happened: The company, which is targeting 820 aircraft deliveries in 2025, is "cautiously hopeful" despite over 40 aircraft frames waiting to be fitted with engines, Reuters reported on Thursday.
"We haven&#8217;t changed our (delivery) guidance. I caution you not to extrapolate too much from monthly numbers. There is a gradual increase in output of engines that we get from CFM. The reason we have not changed our outlook for the year is because we believe that between now and the end of the year we will get the engines,&#8221; Scherer said.
The aircraft manufacturer sources its engines from CFM, which also supplies the engines that power Boeing Co.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) 737 Max Aircraft.
Scherer says Airbus can meet its production target of 75 units of single-isle aircraft like the Airbus A320 by 2027. "We are just cruising past 60 (a month). We are trending in the right direction into the 60s," the report said.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as the global aircraft industry is dealing with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43865891/elon-musks-involvement-key-to-solving-boeings-air-force-one-delivery-crisis-report">supply chain constraints</a>. Recently, Boeing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/44896693/boeing-secures-new-stocks-of-crucial-nuts-and-bolts-used-in-737-max-production-amid-chinas-import-ban-report">replenished its stockpile</a> of crucial nuts used in the production of its best-selling 737 Max aircraft.
Boeing has endured a tough spell in recent years over quality control and safety issues with its aircraft. Most recently, A London-bound <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45899174/boeing-dreamliner-carrying-over-200-passengers-crashes-shortly-after-takeoff-near-indias-ahmedabad-ba-stock-falls-over-5-in-thursday-pre-market">Boeing 787 Dreamliner</a> aircraft operated by Air India crashed moments after it took off from Ahmedabad in India&#8217;s Gujarat state on Thursday. The flight was said to be carrying over 240 people onboard.
The FAA, or Federal Aviation Administration, also recently proposed a flightworthiness report for the company after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44811150/faulty-bathroom-latches-could-cost-boeing-34-million-following-faa-directive">faulty bathroom latches</a> resulted in a passenger being stuck inside the lavatory of a Boeing aircraft during a flight.
Airbus recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45035715/airbus-finalizes-deal-with-spirit-to-take-over-assets-paving-way-for-boeing-acquisition">finalized a deal</a> with Spirit Aerosystems Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPR#NYSE">SPR</a>) to acquire assets of the company, including a facility in Kinston, North Carolina, as well as another facility in France. Spirit was recently acquired by Boeing.
