Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) has reportedly stopped exporting certain high-end vehicles to China due to increased tariffs.
What Happened:&nbsp;The automaker has halted shipments&nbsp;of F-150 Raptors, Mustang muscle&nbsp;cars, and Bronco SUVs from&nbsp;Michigan, as well as Lincoln&nbsp;Navigators from Kentucky, according <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/china-ford-halts-shipment-3cb51285">to</a> a report by the Wall Street Journal.
This follows China&#8217;s retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports, which have soared to as high as 150%.
A Ford spokesperson commented, &#8220;We&nbsp;have adjusted exports from the&nbsp;U.S. to China in light&nbsp;of the current tariffs,&#8221; but did not specify which models or provide a timeline.
Although Ford&#8217;s export business to China is relatively small, it remains profitable, with the company exporting its iconic models to China for nearly a decade.
Last year, Ford exported about 5,500 vehicles to China, a significant decrease from the annual average of over 20,000.
Despite halting vehicle exports, Ford continues to ship&nbsp;U.S.-built engines and transmissions to&nbsp;China.

Ford&#8217;s sales in China have been declining, affected by the rise of local Chinese car brands. The company sold approximately 400,000 vehicles in China last year, a sharp drop from 1.3 million in 2016.
Why It Matters: The halt in Ford&#8217;s vehicle shipments to China is a direct consequence of the ongoing trade tensions between the United States and China.
Recently,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44886711/trump-expresses-reluctance-to-escalate-china-tariffs-hints-at-trade-deal">President Donald Trump</a>&nbsp;expressed reluctance to further escalate tariffs, indicating concerns over potential trade stagnation. He also hinted at China&#8217;s attempts to negotiate a deal, suggesting a possible resolution in the future.
In response to the U.S. tariffs, China has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44856008/china-dismisses-trumps-tariff-numbers-game-files-wto-complaint-talks-can-only-proceed-based-on-mutual-respect">dismissed</a> what it calls a &#8220;tariff numbers game&#8221; and filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization. The Chinese government has stated that talks can only proceed based on mutual respect.

Ford Reportedly Halts Vehicle Shipments To China Amid Rising Tariffs

On Friday, President Donald Trump's White House launched a new COVID-19 website.&nbsp;
What Happened: The newly launched website sharply criticized the pandemic response by the World Health Organization (WHO), former President Joe Biden, and Dr. Anthony Fauci, who was the nation's top health official.
The development was first reported by Reuters.
The website&#8217;s banner declares, &#8220;Lab leak – the true origins of COVID-19,&#8221; and also revisits the ongoing debate about the origins of the pandemic, specifically pointing to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/03/31152736/china-says-us-hurting-its-own-credibility-by-rehashing-covid-19-lab-leak-theory-respect-science-and">lab leak in China</a> as the most likely cause.
&#8220;Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) researchers were sick with COVID-like symptoms in the fall of 2019, months before COVID-19 was discovered at the wet market,&#8221; states one of the five points on the website.

Why It's Important: The president's overhaul of the online resource comes against the backdrop of Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44886711/trump-expresses-reluctance-to-escalate-china-tariffs-hints-at-trade-deal">intensifying trade war with China</a> and continued criticism of past administrations.
In January, a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/02/31062926/edward-snowden-on-covid-19-origin-corporations-must-never-again-be-permitted-to-police-speech">CIA spokesperson stated</a> that the agency believes the COVID-19 pandemic is more likely to have originated from a laboratory than through natural transmission, though it holds only &#8220;low confidence&#8221; in that assessment and considers both possibilities—lab and natural origins—plausible.
The Chinese government has previously said that it supports and has participated in efforts to uncover the virus&#8217;s origins, while accusing the U.S. of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/02/31109887/xi-jinpings-mouthpiece-warns-elon-musk-against-pushing-china-covid-19-lab-leak-theory">politicizing the issue</a>, particularly due to investigations led by American intelligence agencies.
Earlier this year, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43125408/trump-signs-order-to-withdraw-us-from-who-again-cites-funding-governance-concerns">Trump also signed an executive order</a> to withdraw the U.S. from the WHO, citing concerns over governance and financial practices. This decision continues his first-term efforts to end WHO membership, a move previously reversed by Biden in 2021.
Last month, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44519638/us-department-of-health-and-human-services-aligns-with-trumps-executive-order-to-cut-10k-jobs-save-18-billion">U.S. Department of Health and Human Services</a> announced a restructuring plan aligned with Trump&#8217;s executive order, aiming to cut costs and refocus priorities.
This plan includes reducing the workforce by 10,000 employees, saving $1.8 billion annually.

Trump's New COVID Website Takes Aim At WHO, Fauci, And Biden Over Pandemic Response, Calls Out China Lab Leak Theory

House Democrats have raised serious concerns about the Department of Government Efficiency, alleging it is building a cross-agency master database that could compromise privacy and national security.
What Happened: On Friday, Rep. Gerald Connolly (D-VA) sent a letter to the Social Security Administration's Inspector General requesting an investigation into DOGE, claiming it is collecting and consolidating massive amounts of sensitive personal data, <a href="https://www.theverge.com/tech/652215/doge-cross-agency-master-database-sensitive-information">reported</a> The Verge.
Connolly pointed to accounts from SSA whistleblowers who reported seeing DOGE engineers enter the agency's IT systems carrying backpacks loaded with laptops, each reportedly connected to different federal databases.
Their goal, according to the testimony, was to merge these systems into a single unified database.
&#8220;I have long championed efforts to improve data sharing across the government to combat improper payments and to increase government efficiency," he wrote, adding, &#8220;But any efforts to reform our current systems must be undertaken with the utmost sensitivity and concern for privacy, security, and the Social Security payments that millions of people rely on.&#8221;

Why It&#8217;s Important: Earlier this month, Daniel Berulis, an IT employee at the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), stated in an affidavit that the DOGE Service team was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44859945/whistleblower-alleges-doge-involved-in-major-cybersecurity-breach-at-us-labor-agency">granted broad access to the agency&#8217;s internal</a> systems.
The whistleblower noted that starting in March, he observed suspicious activity, including altered logging protocols and the extraction of around 10 gigabytes of sensitive material.
The data appeared to contain confidential affidavits, union-related records, and proprietary business information.
The allegations against DOGE come amid broader scrutiny of the agency.
Previously, it was reported that despite efforts to cut costs, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44778750/musks-government-efficiency-push-falls-short-as-treasury-data-shows-spending-up-sharply-under-trumps-second-term-report">federal spending has increased</a> by $154 billion since Donald Trump returned to office. This rise in spending contrasts with DOGE&#8217;s claims of $150 billion in savings through various cutbacks.
The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44787438/gao-to-probe-sec-changes-under-trump-administration-musks-department-report">U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO)</a> is also set to investigate changes at the SEC under Musk&#8217;s leadership, focusing on staff reductions and work consolidation.

Elon Musk's DOGE Under Fire: House Democrats Say Agency Is Building Unlawful Master Database Of Sensitive US Data

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is undergoing a leadership change after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent raised concerns to President Trump about the appointment of the agency&#8217;s interim head.
What Happened: Five individuals familiar with the situation revealed that Elon Musk influenced the appointment of Gary Shapley as the interim head of the IRS without consulting Bessent, according to<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/18/us/politics/irs-scott-bessent-elon-musk.html"> a</a> New York Times report on Friday.
This move bypassed Bessent, who oversees the tax agency. Musk&#8217;s Department of Government Efficiency facilitated the appointment through White House channels.
Bessent, feeling sidelined, secured Trump&#8217;s approval to reverse the decision. The new acting head is expected to be Michael Faulkender, the deputy secretary of the Treasury, until Billy Long is confirmed by the Senate for the permanent role.

The IRS has seen frequent leadership changes under Trump, with Shapley being appointed after Melanie Krause resigned.
Krause left following an agreement to use IRS data for deportations, a move she opposed. Shapley, a longtime IRS agent, was praised by conservatives for his stance on the Justice Department&#8217;s handling of Hunter Biden&#8217;s tax investigation.
The dispute between Musk and Bessent became public when Musk amplified a post by Laura Loomer questioning Bessent&#8217;s loyalty to Trump.
Loomer&#8217;s post accused Bessent of meeting with a &#8220;Trump hater,&#8221; which Musk called &#8220;troubling.&#8221; The individual in question was John Hope Bryant, CEO of Operation HOPE, who clarified that his meeting with Bessent did not involve political discussions.
Why It Matters: The appointment of Gary Shapley as interim IRS head follows his whistleblower testimony alleging<a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44829763/trump-to-reportedly-appoint-hunter-biden-whisteblower-gary-shapley-as-acting-irs-commissioner-hell-be-a-great-asset"> bias in the investigation of Hunter Biden</a>.
This appointment aligns with Trump&#8217;s administration&#8217;s recent moves, including the IRS&#8217;s controversial decision to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44706330/irs-reverses-stance-agrees-to-share-undocumented-migrant-taxpayers-information-with-ice-this-is-unprecedented"> share undocumented taxpayers&#8217; information</a> with ICE, which has been criticized as part of a mass deportation effort.
Additionally, the IRS&#8217;s leadership changes occur amid speculation about the agency&#8217;s future. Grant Cardone, a prominent critic of the IRS, has suggested that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44440924/grant-cardone-says-dont-be-surprised-when-president-trump-eliminates-the-irs"> Trump might eliminate the agency</a> altogether.

Trump Reverses Elon Musk-Influenced IRS Interim Head Appointment Following Scott Bessent's Objection: Report

Elon Musk's Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) has postponed the U.S. debut of an affordable version of its Model Y SUV.
The vehicle, internally known as E41, was initially set to launch in the first half of the year.
What Happened: Three sources with knowledge of the situation revealed that the production of this lower-cost Model Y in the U.S. is now expected to start several months later than Tesla&#8217;s public plan, according to a Reuters report on Friday.
The revised timeline suggests a start from the third quarter to early next year.
While the exact cause of the delay remains unclear, two sources indicated Tesla&#8217;s goal to manufacture 250,000 units of the cheaper Model Y in the U.S. by 2026. Plans also include eventual production in China and Europe.
The delay and production targets had not been disclosed before. Tesla&#8217;s upcoming earnings report on Tuesday is expected to address these plans.

Why It Matters: The delay in launching the affordable Model Y comes amidst Tesla&#8217;s plans to introduce a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43616177/tesla-exec-says-performance-variant-seven-seat-interior-on-new-model-y-will-launch-later-this-year"> Performance variant of the refreshed Model Y</a> later this year, as stated by company executive Lars Moravy.
The<a href="https://benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43183608/tesla-launches-refreshed-model-y-in-us-with-25-price-hike-full-self-driving-included"> refreshed Model Y</a>, launched in January, is part of Tesla&#8217;s strategy to maintain its competitive edge in the electric vehicle market.
In March, Tesla offered significant<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/03/44064638/tesla-offers-deep-discounts-of-up-to-7950-on-the-model-y-as-the-ev-giant-gears-up-to-deliver-the-refreshed-version"> discounts on the older Model Y</a> versions, with reductions reaching up to $7,950, as the company prepared to deliver the refreshed variant. These discounts were seen as a move to clear inventory and make way for the new models.
Additionally, Tesla plans to refresh its premium<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43908919/tesla-to-launch-refreshed-model-s-x-later-this-year-says-senior-exec"> Model S and Model X</a> vehicles later this year, indicating a broader strategy to update its lineup and attract more customers.

Elon Musk's Tesla Delays Launch Of Affordable Model Y By Several Months: Report

On Friday, White House National Economic Council chair Kevin Hassett said the Donald Trump administration is exploring <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44861571/donald-trump-blasts-too-late-and-wrong-fed-chair-powell-but-polymarket-traders-doubt-his-termination-will-come-fast-enough">ways to remove</a> Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.
What Happened: Hassett told reporters at the White House that the &#8220;President and his team will continue to study,&#8221; whether it&#8217;s possible to fire Powell, <a href="https://thehill.com/business/5256173-trump-exploring-firing-fed-chair/">reported</a> The Hill.
The legal framework surrounding Powell's position complicates any potential firing. According to a 90-year-old Supreme Court precedent, a Federal Reserve chair can only be removed for misconduct or severe neglect of office.
Powell has repeatedly stated that he cannot be legally removed from office and has insisted he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/02/43493701/fed-chair-jerome-powell-faces-trumps-pressure-the-president-cant-fire-me-as-interest-rates-hold-steady-at-4-25-4-5">would serve his full term</a>.

Why It&#8217;s Important: Hassett's comments followed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44862662/trump-pressures-fed-as-ecb-delivers-7th-straight-rate-cut">series of public attacks</a> from President Trump, who has been increasingly critical of Powell, particularly over the Fed's refusal to cut interest rates.
Trump's anger toward Powell intensified this week, culminating in a Thursday morning post on social media where the president expressed his frustration, saying he couldn&#8217;t wait for Powell&#8217;s &#8220;termination.&#8221;
This followed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44848474/fed-chair-powell-says-tariffs-lead-to-temporary-rise-in-inflation">Powell's warnings that Trump's trade</a> tariffs could fuel inflation and cause a slowdown in economic growth, a scenario Trump has said would prevent the Fed from making the necessary rate cuts.
The potential dismissal of Powell has raised concerns about the stability of U.S. financial markets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44882256/trumps-threat-to-fire-powell-could-shake-us-financial-markets">Investment strategists</a> have warned that such a move could undermine the independence of the Federal Reserve and cause significant market turbulence.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has also cautioned that firing Powell could lead to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44883756/warren-foresees-market-turmoil-if-trump-dismisses-feds-powell-if-powell-can-be-fired-by-trump-it-will-crash-markets">stock market collapse</a>.

Trump's Top Economic Adviser Kevin Hassett Says White House Is Exploring Options To Fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell: 'The President And His Team Will Continue To Study'

XRP has experienced a significant sell-off over the past few weeks after peaking in early January and reaching a new all-time high of $3.40 per token. The last time XRP traded above the $3 mark was in January 2018.
As of April 10, XRP is trading at $1.96.

XRP has experienced a significant sell-off over the past few weeks after peaking in early January and reaching a new all-time high of $3.40 per token. The last time XRP traded above the $3 mark was in January 2018.
What XRP Is Used For and the Tech Behind It
XRP is mainly used for moving money across borders quickly and cheaply. Ripple built it to help banks and payment providers settle international transactions in seconds instead of days. Instead of needing to hold a bunch of different currencies, XRP can be used as a bridge—especially in places where liquidity is thin.
It runs on the XRP Ledger, which isn't like Bitcoin or Ethereum. There's no mining involved. It uses its own consensus mechanism that lets it handle about 1,500 transactions per second, with super low fees. It's fast, efficient, and doesn't chew up energy like proof-of-work chains do.
Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
What's With The Drop?
Over the last few weeks, XRP has declined more than 40% after topping out in January. The primary cause of this drop—though you can spin a lot of different narratives around it—is the broader derisking in the U.S. economy, which has triggered a global risk-off sentiment.
Fundamentally, nothing has really changed with XRP. This pullback is largely driven by a bearish macro outlook. Compared to other altcoins, XRP has actually held up relatively well—thanks to stronger fundamentals and institutional backing.&nbsp;

Key Levels to Watch
In the weeks and months ahead, it will be crucial to monitor key levels to get a better sense of whether the market is going to continue dropping, reverse, or simply consolidate for a while.
On the daily chart, XRP is in a clear bearish trend. There was a moment where it looked like a potential breakout to the upside, but that move was entirely news-driven—sparked by <a href="https://x.com/DegenerateNews/status/1896221266241356274">Trump's post </a>about a potential "Crypto Reserve," in which XRP was included.
There are two short-term support levels I'd keep an eye on, both of which have shown recent signs of demand. The first is the $1.75 level, and the second is the $1.40s—a prior area where price accumulated back in November.
With these levels in mind, I'd watch the trend. It's a common saying, but the trend truly is your friend. Currently, in most risk-on markets—especially U.S. equities—the trend is bearish.
If you're an investor or trader looking for a bullish case, you'd want to start seeing XRP fail to trade towards old lows and begin forming higher lows in the market. This would not only set up a potential long move but also possibly shift the negative sentiment that has been prevailing in the crypto markets for a while now.

Why Merck, Black Hills, And Virtus Investment Partners Are Winners For Passive Income

It's not something most people expect to find while cleaning out a loved one's home, but it happens. One listener of the "<a href="https://omny.fm/shows/suze-ormans-women-and-money/ask-kt-suze-anything-revisiting-can-i-give-my-child-money-and-get-a-tax-deduction">Women &amp; Money</a>" podcast recently asked financial expert Suze Orman what to do after discovering $200,000 in cash stashed away by her deceased father.
The listener explained that her father didn't trust banks and saved his paychecks in cash, hiding them around the house over time. Now, she's faced with a major question: What's the right way to handle this money?

<li><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.</li>
</ul>
Here's how Suze Orman responded.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Step 1: Don't Let the Money Sit in Cash</h2>
Orman began by stressing the opportunity cost of keeping such a large sum in cash. "You're missing out on about $10,000 a year currently in interest," she noted.
Letting the money sit at home not only limits its earning potential — it also puts it at risk of theft or loss. That's why <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44424162/its-a-really-really-bad-idea-suze-orman-warns-58-year-old-against-using-a-401k-to-buy-a-lifetime">Orman</a> believes the safest next step involves depositing it. But that's not as simple as walking into a bank with stacks of cash.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Step 2: Talk to the Estate Lawyer</h2>
Before heading to the bank, Orman recommends contacting the attorney handling the estate. If there's no lawyer involved, she advises hiring one, even for a short consultation. They can guide you on how to legally deposit the money and ensure everything is above board.
Why the caution? Large deposits — especially over $10,000 — trigger federal reporting requirements. Banks are required to report these transactions to government agencies as part of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42266678/coinbase-ceo-brian-armstrong-failed-anti-money-laundering-regulations-sounds-like-a-job-for-doge">anti-money-laundering rules</a>.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Step 3: Be Transparent With the Bank</h2>
Orman suggests going to a bank where either you or your loved one had an account. Bring documentation like the death certificate, the will or trust, and any paperwork that shows you're the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42803339/keep-it-separate-suze-orman-warns-listener-about-protecting-her-childrens-inheritance-when-buying-a-home-with-a-new-spouse">beneficiary of the estate</a>.
"Just come clean," she advises. Explain how and where the money was found, and that you're trying to handle it responsibly. The bank may have questions, but full transparency can help avoid future issues.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Step 4: Deposit the Money Into the Estate Account</h2>
Rather than depositing the funds directly into your personal account, Orman recommends opening a bank account in the name of the estate. This keeps everything tied to the deceased person's financial affairs and can simplify the probate process, if applicable.
Once the cash is deposited into the estate account, it becomes part of the official estate assets. From there, you or the executor can distribute it according to the terms of the will or trust — or as directed by the probate court.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Taxes Could Be Involved</h2>
Orman also cautioned that depending on your situation, the IRS might treat the money as part of the estate and expect a portion in taxes. Or, they might accept your explanation and move on. Either way, working with a lawyer and possibly a tax professional can help ensure you follow the right steps.
If you find a large sum of cash in a loved one's home, don't panic — but don't ignore it either. Follow Orman's lead: seek legal guidance, stay transparent, and take the right steps to protect yourself and the money.

One Reddit user just gave the economy subreddit a glimpse into what panic looks like in real time.
In the popular r/Economy <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/economy/comments/1jyig4s/ok_i_sold_all_of_my_holdings_and_am_100_cash/">subreddit</a>, the user said they sold all of their holdings and are &#8220;100% cash until 2026 midterms because this administration is full of 6-year-olds.&#8221;
They added, &#8220;All of my personal investments have turned into 100% cash and sold when the market was very low (I'm still kicking myself in the ass everyday for doing that).&#8221;

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Market Timing vs. Market Patience</h2>
Despite the regret, they said they couldn't handle the volatility anymore, even though they were invested in a broadly diversified fund: &#8220;I feel like I'm day trading Vanguard Total Stock ETF. It's just so horrendous.&#8221;
Reactions flooded in, and the general consensus was that selling low and holding cash isn't the win the user might think it is.
&#8220;You want to buy more when the market is down, not sell,&#8221; one user said.
Another pointed out the trap of market timing: &#8220;If you think you timed the top, now you gotta time the bottom. Probably gonna get mad if the market goes up.&#8221;
Several commenters also noted how common this mistake is, especially among younger investors. &#8220;Selling in 2009 is my greatest regret,&#8221; one user shared. &#8220;The best buying opportunities always look the most awful and scary.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Cash Isn&#8217;t as Safe as It Feels</h2>
While the original poster parked their money in a high-yield savings account, multiple users reminded them that cash isn't immune to erosion.
&#8220;The dollar <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44768702/foreigners-dump-the-dollar-gold-and-yen-act-as-safe-haven-jpmorgan-helps-stock-market-cooler-ppi">isn&#8217;t safe</a> right now,&#8221; one comment read. &#8220;You&#8217;re protected against market volatility but <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44764554/consumer-sentiment-crashes-to-3-year-lows-as-inflation-expectations-spike-to-1981-highs">inflation</a> is going to make your cash worth less than other, more safe investment choices.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Politics, Tariffs and Uncertainty</h2>
Politics were central to the original post, and the comment section didn't shy away either.
Many mentioned President Donald Trump's tariff policies and their ripple effects on markets. One user explained, &#8220;[Trump] <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44779286/trumps-tariff-pause-stirs-markets-goldman-sachs-reverses-recession-call-and-more-this-week-in-economy">paused tariffs for 90 days</a> to all the countries (except China) who were selling US bonds on the open market, causing the interest rates to rise.&#8221;
Another summed up the frustration with policy-driven volatility: &#8220;Markets dislike uncertainty. As you can see from these comments, certainty is in short supply. Nobody knows. Do your best.&#8221;
Some took it further, blaming both sides of the aisle. &#8220;This isn't going to be a quick recession like COVID. We have a few problems we have to unwind and I'm pessimistic there is anyone capable of leading us out of this, Republicans or Democrats. It's scary out there.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">So Was It a Bad Move?</h2>
Most think so. &#8220;If you hadn&#8217;t sold you would have lost nothing,&#8221; one said. &#8220;Investing by your politics is foolish.&#8221;
Others were more empathetic. &#8220;There is no wrong move if it gives you peace of mind,&#8221; a top commenter added. &#8220;You might miss out on some gains. That's irrelevant if the stress and potential losses can alter your life plans.&#8221;
Still, the original poster might be left with the worst of both worlds: locking in losses from selling low and watching inflation chip away at their savings.

Not marginally — dramatically. Even 1% of his net worth is more than most people could spend in multiple lifetimes.
But in a 2022 post on X, Musk pushed back on the idea that Tesla operates like a traditional hierarchy.
"Everyone eats same food, uses same restrooms, etc — no executive chef or other ivory tower stuff," he wrote. "There shouldn't be this workers vs management two-class system. Everyone is a worker."

Now in 2025, and Musk is still fighting to reinstate a $56 billion Tesla compensation package that was struck down last year by a Delaware court.&nbsp;
The court's decision was grounded in findings that the package was negotiated by directors lacking independence from Musk and that shareholders were misled by flawed disclosures during the approval process. Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick described the <a href="https://www.reuters.com/legal/judge-rules-favor-plaintiffs-challenging-musks-tesla-pay-package-2024-01-30/">compensation as an "unfathomable sum"</a> and highlighted the undue influence Musk had over the board, noting close personal ties with several directors .
Meanwhile, factory workers at Tesla's plants in Texas and Nevada are reportedly earning as little as $22 an hour. Even at the top of the pay scale, hourly wages max out around $39, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-much-tesla-factory-workers-paid-per-hour-us">Business Insider</a> reported last year.&nbsp;
Trending: With shares starting at $1.52, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-a-10k-bet-on-health-care-originals-could-have-skyrocketed-your-portfolio">this could be your chance to invest in the future of healthcare</a>.
According to Tesla's proxy statement, Musk appeared to take home nothing in 2022—at least on paper. The company reported his total compensation as zero for the year, which technically brought the CEO-to-median-worker pay ratio down to 0:1.&nbsp;
But that snapshot doesn't tell the whole story. Just one year earlier, in 2021, Musk exercised a massive batch of stock options that were set to expire, realizing gains of $23.45 billion. <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1318605/000156459022024064/tsla-def14a_20220804.htm?utm_source=chatgpt.com">Tesla's filings show</a> his "total realized compensation" for 2021 was $734,762,107, and based on the median employee salary of around $40,000 that year, the pay ratio came out to 18,043 to 1.&nbsp;
Musk's supporters argue that his compensation was performance-based and tied to milestones that drove massive value for shareholders. Critics point out that while Tesla's valuation soared, the workers powering its growth haven't seen the same rewards — and in some cases, have even seen wages reduced.
The legal battle over Musk's record-breaking pay is ongoing. But so is the conversation about whether <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44778739/elon-musks-political-fallout-fuels-record-dump-of-used-tesla-cars-now-selling-for-thousands-below-market-value">Tesla really operates</a> without a two-class system — or whether that idea only works in theory, not on the assembly line.

In the current market session, Norfolk Southern Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSC#NYSE">NSC</a>) price is at $219.84, after a 2.71% spike. However, over the past month, the stock fell by 5.14%, and in the past year, by 10.13%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is undervalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>Norfolk Southern P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 33.44 in the Ground Transportation industry, Norfolk Southern Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 18.5. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1745013621_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

$1000 Invested In This Stock 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

木曜日、キャッシーウッド氏率いるアーク・インベスト（Ark Invest）がテスラ（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>）とメタ・プラットフォームズ（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>）の大量の株式取引をした。テスラでは、4万6000台以上のサイバートラックのリコール、メタではプライバシー問題に直面している中での取引である。
テスラの取引： アーク・イノベーションETF（NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>）がテスラ（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>）の株式を9,351株を取得。テスラの終値236.26ドルに基づき計算すると購入金額は約221万ドル。ここで重要なのは、テスラが厳しい視線にさらされている中での取引ということである。テスラは最近、自動車の外装パネルに問題があるとして「Cybertruck（サイバートラック）」を<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44414187/elon-musks-tesla-recalls-over-46000-cybertrucks-due-to-safety-concerns">46,096台リコール</a>することを発表した。
さらに、テスラは資本支出の分野において14億ドルの<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44410602/elon-musks-tesla-faces-1-4-billion-discrepancy-in-capital-expenditure-report">不一致がある</a>。この資金差異は市場評価に大きな影響を与え、同社評価は1.7兆ドルから8,000億ドル近くまで下落した。しかし、アーク・インベストの取引から見るとは、テスラがこれらの障害を乗り越え、成長を続けることを示唆している。
メタプラットフォームの取引 ：ARKK ETFがメタ・プラットフォームズの株式を4648株売却。メタの終値586.00ドルに基づき計算すると売却額は約2,720万ドル。アークは最近、メタの株式を<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44409161/cathie-wood-offloads-meta-stock-while-mark-zuckerberg-celebrates-llama-ai-success">立て続けに売却している</a>。ラマ(Llama)はダウンロード10億回突破したが、メタにはプライバシーや事業拡大という課題にも直面している。
ここで重要なのは、ウルフ・リサーチ(Wolfe Research）によると、メータは市場では過小評価されているものの、ビジネスメッセージングサービスから<a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44374847/meta-could-rake-in-30-40-billion-in-revenue-from-whatsapp-business-messaging-predicts-analyst">300億-400億ドルの収益</a>の見込みがある。

水曜日、キャッシー・ウッド氏率いるArkインベストが、メタプラットフォーム （NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>）の株式を売却した。この決定は、メタのAIモデル「ラマ(Llama)」が10億回ダウンロードを突破した一方で、プライバシー問題に直面している状況を受けてのものだ。
メタ売却について：Ark インベストのARKイノベーションETF（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>）は、マーク・ザッカーバーグ(Mark Zuckerberg)氏率いるメタの株を7361株売却した。1株584.06ドルのメタの終値に基づくと、この売却額は約430万ドルになる。これは、メタのプライバシーに関する課題やグローバル拡大の取り組みに苦戦していことからの決定であり、先週月曜に<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44368691/cathie-wood-dumps-over-7-million-worth-of-meta-shares-as-mark-zuckerbergs-social-empire-faces-privacy-heat-ark-sells-block-shares-again">7,000万ドル超のメタ株を売却した</a>ことに続くものだ。注目すべきは、Arkがこの週曜日にもMeta株を<a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44389960/cathie-woods-big-tuesday-bet-ark-pours-7-8-million-into-tempus-ai-despite-stock-stumble">126万ドル分売却した点</a>だ。
これらの問題にも関わらず、メタは2025年においては他のテック大手と比べて、比較的良好な結果を残している。最近、メタのAIモデル「ラマ(Llama)」が10億回のダウンロードを達成したことが、ザッカーバーグ氏によって発表された。

18日、キャッシー・ウッド氏率いるArkインベストが、テンパス AI （NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEM#NASDAQ">TEM</a>）、アドバンス・マイクロ・デバイス（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>）、メタ(NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>）の大量の取引をした。
テンパス AI取引で大量の株を購入したのは、Ark インベストのARK ゲノミック・レボリューションETF（Genomic Revolution ETF)（BATS：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKG#BATS">ARKG</a>）とARKイノベーション ETF（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>）ファンドである。それぞれ2万8646株と14万2530株の株式を買い増した。これは、テンパス AIの売上ミスと利益予想を上回るEPSを記録した<a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43927560/tempus-ai-q4-earnings-revenue-miss-eps-beat-strong-guidance-shares-move-lower">最新の決算報告</a>の後に行われた。この日の株価終値は45.74ドル、8.28％の下落を見せた。買い付けた株式の総額は、約783万ドルに上る。Arkインベストによるこの投資は、前回の<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44293571/cathie-woods-wednesday-moves-ark-pours-1-36-million-into-tempus-ai-shares-following-deep-6-ai-acquisition-offload">133万6000ドルの購入</a>に続くもので、テンパス AIに対する同社の自信を物語っている。
アドバンス・マイクロ・デバイス取引では、ARKKファンドが3万324株を購入、株価終値は103.51ドル、約314万ドルの取引額であった。これは、AIとGPU市場における<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44274365/amd-ceo-lisa-su-says-ai-boom-is-just-getting-started-and-amds-ready-to-cash-in">競争力を強めている</a>という最近のアナリストの視点に一致している。また、同社はAIの進歩と戦略的パートナーシップにより、2025年には20%以上の成長が見込まれている。
メタ取引では、ArkインベストのARKKファンドが、マーク・ザッカーバグ氏率いる同社の2160株を売却した。株価終値は1株あたり582.36ドル、売却額は約126万ドルである。これは、メタがビジネスメッセージングサービスから300〜400億ドルの収益を生み出す可能性があるという<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44374847/meta-could-rake-in-30-40-billion-in-revenue-from-whatsapp-business-messaging-predicts-analyst">アナリスト予測</a>の後の動きであり、市場がメタを過小評価を示している可能性がある。
なお、グローバル展開の取り組みやプライバシー慣行が厳しい監視の目にさらされているという報道が流れる中、月曜にはメタの株式について、Arkインベストが７百万ドル以上の株式を売却したことは注目である。

木曜日の昨日、キャシー・ウッドのArkインベストメントが、ロビンフッド・マーケッツ（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>）、コインベース・グローバル（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>）、テンパスAI（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEM#NASDAQ">TEM</a>）を中心とした積極的な買い取引をした。これらの取引は暗号資産関連株銘柄に影響を与え、不安定な市場でおこなわれた。
ロビンフッド取引では、ARKイノベーションETF（NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>）が、ロビンフッドの14万3,855株を取得した。同社の株は1株36.02ドルで取引を終え、総額518万ドルでの投資となった。これは、最近の市場動向に一致した動きである。ほかの暗号資産関連銘柄と同様、ロビンフッドはビットコイン（暗号資産:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>）が8万ドルを割るという動きによって影響を受けた。それでもトレーダーは、市場における潜在的なチャンスを模索していると報じられている。
コインベース取引では、ARKKファンドがコインベースの2万9,353株を取得した。終値は1株177.49ドル、投資総額は521万ドル前後となった。コインベースはS&amp;P500に組み入れられていないことや暗号資産市場全体が低迷していることから、監視の目が向けられている。だが、ローゼンブラット(Rosenblatt)のクリス・ブレンドラー(Chris Brendler）氏のようなアナリストは、最近の調整が買いのチャンスであるとした前向きな見方を維持している。
テンパス AI取引では、ARKKファンドがテンパスAI の3万0119株を購入した。終値は1株42.16ドル、投資総額は約123万ドルだった。今回の取引は、水曜日の<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44293571/cathie-woods-wednesday-moves-ark-pours-1-36-million-into-tempus-ai-shares-following-deep-6-ai-acquisition-offloads-rocket-lab-stock">前回の購入（136万ドル）</a>に続くものである。注目すべきは、今週は連日、Arkがテンパス AIの株を購入していることだ。月曜日のハイテク株暴落の中で、Arkは1,323万相当の株式を購入している。

キャシー・ウッド（Cathie Wood）率いる投資会社Ark Investは、先週水曜日に、Amazon.com Inc.（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>）、「ロビンフッド・マーケットス株式会社」（Robinhood Markets Inc.）（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>）、Reddit Inc.（NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>）および「アドバンスト・マイクロ・デバイセズ社」（Advanced Micro Devices Inc.）（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>）に関して大規模なトレードを実施した。
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Amazonに関するトレード</h3>
Ark InvestのARKF ETFは、Amazonの株3579株を、最新の終値162.77ドルを基に約582,554ドルで買い付けた。このトレードの際、 ARK Innovation ETF（NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>）、「ARK自律型テクノロジー＆ロボティクスETF」（ARK Autonomous Technology &amp; Robotics ETF）（BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKQ#BATS">ARKQ</a>）、「ARK次世代インターネットETF」（NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKW#NYSE">ARKW</a>）、「ArkフィンテックイノベーションETF」（NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKF#NYSE">ARKF</a>）及び「ARK宇宙探査＆イノベーションETF」（BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKX#BATS">ARKX</a>）が使用された。
Amazonの2021年第2四半期の決算は、AWS（Amazon Web Services）が強い成長を見せた一方で小売収益が低下した結果となった。アナリストは<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/24/08/40135676/10-amazon-analysts-assess-q2-earnings-strong-aws-growth-retail-challenges">売り評価を維持</a>しているが、AWSの加速と強いマージンを強調しつつ、小売業界の課題と3四半期の緩い見通しを指摘し、株価予想を下方修正した。
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Robinhoodに関するトレード</h3>
ARKK、ARKW、ARKF ETFは、最新の終値17.12ドルを基に約249万ドルでRobinhoodの株145,420株を購入した。
Robinhoodの2021年第2四半期の売上高は6億8200万ドルで、前年同期比で40%増となり、予想を上回る結果となった。Robinhoodはこの情報を本日（水曜日）発表した。 売上高の伸びは、オプション、仮想通貨、株式の利益によって69%増となった。同社は1株あたり21セントの<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40233817/robinhood-q2-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-beat-crypto-revenue-up-161-year-over-yea">利益をもたらし、期待値を上回る結果となった</a> 13.2十億ドルの純預金記録を達成した。ロビンフッドゴールド会員数は200万人に増加した。今後の見通しには、新製品への投資や国際展開による費用の増加が含まれる。
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Redditに関するトレード</h3>
ARKK ETFとARKW ETFは、Redditの株40148株を最新の終値50.69ドルを基に約203万ドルで買い付けた。
Redditの第2四半期の決算は、利用者数9100万人、収益2億8100万ドルを記録し、好調なものだった。ただし、JPMorganのDoug Anmuth氏は、近日中に行われるロックアップ解除（IPO時に発行された株を上場後に売却できる時期）による潜在的なボラティリティを理由に、<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40219818/reddit-posts-strong-q2-results-but-jpmorgan-warns-of-volatility-ahead">ニュートラル（中立）</a>を維持した。 Redditの広告ビジネスは強い成長を示したものの、第3四半期の落ち込みの兆候が見られた。 Memorable AIの買収や、新しいコンテンツとの提携などの戦略的な動きは将来性があるかもしれないが、Anmuth氏は株価の目標を67ドルから59ドルに引き下げた。
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">AMDに関するトレード</h3>
ARKK ETFとARKQ ETF、ARKW ETFは、最新の終値128.67ドルを基に約743,771ドルで「アドバンスト・マイクロ・デバイセズ」の株5796株を購入した。
第2四半期の収益は、1株あたり69セントの利益と58.35億ドルの売上で、予想を上回る結果となった。最近の株価の変動にもかかわらず、AMDの株は全体的な市場の強さの中で<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40229445/whats-going-on-with-amd-stock">わずかな上昇を見せた</a>。 低い市場の変動率、および今後の見通しのポジティブな要素が、AMDのための強い取引環境を形成した。

Cathie Wood氏率いるArk Investは、火曜日にAmazon.com Inc（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>）、Reddit Inc（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>）、Advanced Micro Devices Inc（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>）で大規模なトレードを行いました。
Ark Fintech Innovation ETF（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKF#NYSE">ARKF</a>）、ARK Innovation ETF（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>）、ARK Next Generation Internet ETF（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKW#NYSE">ARKW</a>）、ARK Space Exploration＆Innovation ETF（BATS：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKX#BATS">ARKX</a>）および ARK Autonomous Technology＆Robotics ETF（BATS： ARKQ）は、これらのトレードを行ったETFの一部です。
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Redditの取引</h3>
Ark InvestはARKFを通じてRedditの35,955株を取得しました。最終取引価格が54.36ドルで、この取引の価値は約195万ドルです。
Redditは、総収益が前年同期比54％増の強力な四半期業績と、毎日のアクティブユーザー数（DAUq）が9,120万人に50％増加したと報告しています。それでも、この株はIPO前ロックアップ終了が迫る中、民間またはIPO前投資家および株式の平均利用者1人当たり収益（ARPU）の低い成長のために減少しています。
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Amazonの取引</h3>
Ark InvestはARKK、ARKQ、ARKW、ARKF、ARKXを通じてAmazon.comの39,942株を購入しました。最終取引価格が161.93ドルで、この取引は約650万ドルの価値があると見積もられています。
AmazonはArk Investにとって人気のある選択肢でした。同社は、市場の大幅な下落で特筆すべき投資を行いました。投資会社は、市場の暴落の中でAMD、テスラ、その他の株式の購入を行いました。
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">AMDの取引</h3>
Ark Investは、ARKK、ARKQ、ARKWを通じてAdvanced Micro Devicesの105,002株を取得しました。最終取引価格が130.18ドルで、この取引は約1370万ドルの価値があります。
なお、先週月曜日のグローバル市場の暴落の中で、NVIDIAのBlackwellアクセラレータにおける<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40170023/amd-shares-rebound-whats-going-on">設計上の欠陥</a>によってAMDの株価が下落しましたが、米AMDの株価は上昇しました。この欠陥によってNVIDIAは2025年初までの出荷が遅れる可能性があります。NVIDIAは後日懸念に対処し、他のインテルなどのチップメーカーの弱い業績を和らげました。
その他の主な取引:
<ul>
<li>ARKFがBlock Incの株を売却</li>
<li>ARKFがRobinhood Markets Incの株を購入</li>
<li>ARKGがTeladoc Health Incの株を売却</li>

キャシー・ウッド率いるアークインベスト　Reddit株取得

議会員による取引が、委員会のアサインメントを含む利益相反の可能性があるため、ますます投資家の注目を集めている。
金曜日の市場終値近くに、議会の有名なメンバーが複数の取引を開示した。
出来事:議会の取引活動に対する注目の高まりにより、複数の議会取引ETFや<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/specialty-etfs/24/06/39299113/nancy-pelosi-among-best-of-the-best-in-stock-trading-new-congress-trading-etf-coming-from-cre">1つの新しいETFが</a>作成されている。
議員トミー・タバービル（共和党アラバマ州）は議会の中で最も積極的なトレーダーの1人で、過去の取引で注目を集めている。この議員の取引は大量で大きな金額になることが多い。
金曜日、タバービル氏は前職の大部分を売却し、新旧のポジションについてコールオプションとプットオプションを購入する取引を<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/gov-trades">開示</a>した。
取引の中で、最も大きな規模のいくつかの取引は、Cleveland-Cliffs Inc（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>）の株式の売却、Intel Corp（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>）の株式の売却、そしてHumacyte Inc（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HUMA#NASDAQ">HUMA</a>）のポジションを抜けること。
タバービル氏は、Ark Innovation ETF（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>）のコールオプションとプットオプションも購入した。
この議員は、メディア会社Paramount Global（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>）（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARAA#NASDAQ">PARAA</a>）の株式も売却しているが、この会社は以前、破談になった合併の対象となった。
最新の開示におけるオプション以外の唯一の購入取引は、追加のIntel株と、ヘルスケア企業Solventum Coproration（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOLV#NYSE">SOLV</a>）に対する1000ドルから15000ドルのポジションである。
「緊急ニュース：タバービル上院議員が、意図的に金曜日の午後に何百万ドルもの取引を報告し、メディアの報道を回避しました」と、Congresstradingは金曜日に<a href="https://x.com/congresstrading/status/1801709082299994303">ツイート</a>した。

なぜ重要なのか: タバービル氏は議会の中で複数の委員会に<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/04/38304279/tommy-tuberville-trades-raise-eyebrows-again-senator-sells-put-options-buys-small-biotech-linked-to">参加している</a>。彼の委員会の地位について、彼の銘柄取引に対する注目が高まっており、彼の銘柄取引は、彼の武装軍事委員会、そして農業・栄養・林業委員会のアサインメントに関連する運輸および商品に関連した銘柄のセクターに集中している。
以前にも、ヒュマサイトのような株式取引に対してこのような注目が集まったことはある。
今年の夏以前、タバービル氏が地域銀行Southern States Bancshares（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSBK#NASDAQ">SSBK</a>）の株式5万ドルから10万ドルを取得したことは、彼のキャンペーンへの寄付を受けた銀行のCEOも注目を集めた。
彼はまた、CHIPS法がバイデン大統領によって署名される前に、インテルの株式も購入した。 CHIPS法はIntelを含むチップ会社に500億ドルの資金提供を行った。
タバービル氏の代表者は、以前にモンゴメリーアドバタイザーに対して、彼の投資ポートフォリオを管理する金融アドバイザーがいると語っている。
議員の中には、株式やオプションの取引を禁止する法案を提案している者もいるが、タバービル氏は過去にこのような対策に反対し、「ばかげている」と批判している。
「これは本当に、ここに上院議員になりたいと思っている人々の数を削減することになると思います。私は本当にそう思います。これは私たちには必要ありません」と、タバービル氏は2022年に<a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/tommy-tuberville-stock-ban-congress-b2011612.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Independentに語った</a>。
