Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) outlined an ambitious growth trajectory on Tuesday, projecting fiscal year 2026 revenue of $40 billion despite recent challenges including delayed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43641646/super-micro-reports-preliminary-q2-earnings-company-expects-file-delayed-reports-coming-weeks">financial filings and regulatory investigations</a>.
What Happened: During its second-quarter earnings call, CEO Charles Liang characterized the $40 billion target as a &#8220;conservative estimation,&#8221; forecasting 65% year-over-year growth. This comes as the company reported preliminary second-quarter revenue between $5.6 billion and $5.7 billion, representing a 54% increase from the previous year.
However, Supermicro scaled back its fiscal year 2025 guidance to $23.5-25 billion from its previous forecast of $26-30 billion, citing product transition impacts and delays in new technology deployment. 
To strengthen its financial position, Supermicro announced a $700 million convertible senior notes placement due 2028, while also amending existing notes due 2029. The company ended the second quarter with $1.4 billion in cash, improving to approximately $2 billion by Jan. 31.
Nasdaq Exchange granted SMCI until Feb. 25 to file its 10-K, with delisting risk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43618710/smci-stock-falls-nearly-4-in-tuesday-pre-market-as-investors-await-an-update-on-delayed-filing">if it misses the deadline</a>.

Why It Matters: The company faces ongoing scrutiny following Ernst &amp; Young&#8216;s resignation as auditor in October and subsequent Department of Justice and SEC subpoenas <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43641646/super-micro-reports-preliminary-q2-earnings-company-expects-file-delayed-reports-coming-weeks">related to a short seller report</a>. Supermicro expects to file its delayed financial reports by Feb. 25, with management maintaining that an independent Special Committee found <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43641646/super-micro-reports-preliminary-q2-earnings-company-expects-file-delayed-reports-coming-weeks">no evidence of fraud or misconduct</a>.
Looking ahead, Supermicro emphasized its competitive advantages in liquid cooling technology, claiming a 60% market share. &#8220;We expect more than 30% of new data centers worldwide to adopt liquid cooling infrastructure within the next twelve months,&#8221; Liang noted, pointing to growing AI infrastructure demand.
The company operates at partial capacity, with U.S. facilities at 55% utilization and significant room for expansion in Taiwan and Malaysia operations, positioning it for potential growth as AI adoption accelerates globally.
SMCI&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SMCI/analyst-ratings">consensus price target</a> is $467.47 from 17 analysts, with a high of $1,300 and a low of $23. The latest ratings from Loop Capital, Goldman Sachs, and J.P. Morgan average $30.33, implying a 27.52% downside.

Price Action: Super Micro Computer Inc. stock closed at $38.61 on Tuesday, down 9.47% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock rebounded 8.39%. Year to date, shares have gained 28.49%, but over the past year, the stock has declined 50.05%, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Supermicro Eyes $40 Billion Revenue Despite Regulatory Heat, Auditor Exit—CEO Calls It 'Conservative Estimation'

On Tuesday, the United States and the United Kingdom declined to sign a global AI safety declaration at the <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/02/43638878/intel-shares-are-up-today-whats-going-on">AI Action Summit</a> in Paris, marking a departure from previous AI summits where they had supported similar agreements.
What Happened: Around 60 countries, including China, India, and Germany, signed a non-binding declaration advocating for AI to be &#8220;safe, secure, and trustworthy,&#8221; <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/a6b5426d-645f-433b-8090-a2a26a3deec6">reported</a> the Financial Times.&nbsp;
U.S. Vice President JD Vance, speaking at the event, criticized what he called "overly precautionary" AI regulations that could stifle innovation.
&#8220;We believe that excessive regulation of the AI sector could kill a transformative industry just as it's taking off,&#8221; Vance stated.

"America wants to partner with all of you…but to create that kind of trust, we need international regulatory regimes that foster the creation of AI technology rather than strangle it," he said.
He said that the Donald Trump administration would ensure &#8220;the most powerful AI systems are built in the U.S., with American-designed and manufactured chips.&#8221;
A British official suggested that the declaration's wording was "too restrictive."
Another U.K. government spokesperson stated it "didn't provide enough practical clarity on global governance, nor sufficiently address harder questions around national security," the report noted.

Why It Matters: The refusal to sign the declaration highlights growing geopolitical tensions over <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/42144915/china-unveils-global-ai-governance-committee-with-alibaba-cloud-founder-at-the-helm">AI governance</a>.
The U.S., eager to maintain its edge over China, is focusing on AI innovation. Last month, Trump announced a <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/startups/25/02/43420092/as-easy-as-it-can-be-trump-promises-ai-giants-support-with-500b-investment-plan-how-does-it-compare-with-deepseek">$500 billion private-sector</a> AI investment package, known as the &#8220;Stargate&#8221; project, aimed at building massive data centers in Texas.
The shockwaves caused by China&#8217;s DeepSeek AI model, which delivers high-level performance at lower costs, have further fueled <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43382103/experts-say-deepseek-proves-high-performance-ai-possible-without-silicon-valleys-spending">concerns in Silicon Valley</a>.
Despite the cost-effectiveness of such models, China's industry leaders like Baidu CEO Robin Li have stressed the need for <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43616825/deepseeks-success-just-the-start-more-ai-funding-still-very-much-required-says-baidu-ceo-you-just-dont-know-when-and-where-innovations-come-from">continued investment</a> in AI infrastructure to maintain a competitive edge.

Goldman Sachs Increases Bitcoin ETF Stake Over $1.5 Billion In Q4, Reports A Massive 1793% Jump In Ethereum ETF Holdings

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/02/43466203/warren-buffetts-127-billion-stock-sell-off-sends-wall-street-a-stark-warning-for-2025-below-average-returns-ahead">Warren Buffett</a> may be a financial mastermind, but when it comes to self-control, even he needs a little extra motivation.&nbsp;
The billionaire investor, known for his sharp decision-making and long-term strategy, had one particular weakness: junk food. Despite living off a diet that would make most nutritionists cringe—McDonald's breakfasts, Dairy Queen sundaes, and an alarming amount of Coca-Cola—Buffett feared gaining too much weight. And in true Buffett fashion, he didn't just set a goal. He made a bet.
In his official 2008 biography "The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life" by Alice Schroeder, Buffett understood his own tendencies all too well. To keep himself accountable, Buffett handed his children unsigned checks for $10,000 each, promising to sign them if he exceeded a certain weight.&nbsp;
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<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>
<li>Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die."<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/warren-buffet-make-money-when-you-sleep"> Here&#8217;s how you can earn passive income with just $100.</a></li>
</ul>
The plan seemed foolproof—until his kids saw an opportunity. Instead of cheering him on, they went full Wall Street and tried to game the system. Donuts, pizza and fried food mysteriously appeared around the house, conveniently placed within Buffett's reach. His children, eager to cash in on their father's notorious frugality, became his biggest saboteurs.
For someone who <a href="https://fortune.com/well/article/warren-buffett-birthday-longevity-habits/">once told Fortune</a>, "I eat like a 6-year-old," this was no easy challenge. His daily routine included five 12-ounce Coca-Colas—"If I eat 2,700 calories a day, a quarter of that is Coca-Cola. I do it every day," he said.&nbsp;

His mornings started with a McDonald's drive-thru stop, where he picked from one of three breakfast options based on how the market was performing. If Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>, BRK.B)) was up, he'd <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41230382/warren-buffett-lets-the-stock-market-decide-his-mcdonalds-breakfast-order-when-its-up-he-spends-">splurge on a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit</a>. If it was down, two sausage patties would do. Lunch often meant a Dairy Queen chili cheese dog and an ice cream sundae topped with cherry syrup and chopped nuts. And then there were the snacks: Utz potato sticks, See's Candies, and a salt intake so excessive that former Wells Fargo (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>) CEO John Stumpf once compared it to a "snowstorm."
Despite this, Buffett had a trick up his sleeve. His $10,000 bet wasn't just a quirky wager—it was a classic example of a commitment device, a concept in behavioral economics where people create consequences to hold themselves accountable for their actions. A <a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/predictably-irrational/200903/warren-buffett-and-his-attempts-self-control">2009 Psychology Today</a> article referencing the same weight-bet anecdote highlighted Buffett as a textbook example of a "sophisticate." Unlike "naifs," who think they'll start their diet tomorrow but never do, or "rational" thinkers, who always make optimal choices, a "sophisticate" understands their own irrationality and sets up systems to counteract it. Buffett knew that, left unchecked, he'd happily eat himself into a sugar coma. So, he made sure that failing his weight goal came at a real cost—$10,000 to his kids.
See Also: Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.
Of course, his children didn't make it easy. Instead of letting Buffett quietly stick to his goal, they turned it into an opportunity for financial gain. Junk food started appearing around the house, placed strategically to tempt him. But even against their best efforts, Buffett prevailed. The checks went unsigned, proving that even the Oracle of Omaha can outmaneuver his own cravings.
Buffett's bet was a perfect example of how he applies his investing principles to everyday life. Just like in the stock market, where he stays disciplined and avoids emotional decisions, he managed to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">outwit his biggest opponents</a>—his own kids and his love for junk food. Turns out, nothing tests willpower quite like a financial incentive, especially when there's $10,000 at stake. If every failed diet came with that kind of price tag, there'd probably be a lot fewer broken New Year's resolutions.

Billionaire Warren Buffett Bet His Kids $10,000 He Wouldn't Gain Weight —And They Tried To Cash In By Sabotaging Him With Donuts

The Future Fund LLC Managing Partner Gary Black highlighted Lyft Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>) record year performance on Tuesday, sharing CEO David Risher&#8216;s announcement about serving 44 million riders across the U.S. and Canada in 2024.
What Happened: The comments came as Lyft reported strong <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43641962/lyft-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-gross-bookings-up-15-new-buyback-our-biggest-competition-is-inertia">fourth-quarter results</a>, with revenue reaching $1.6 billion, exceeding analyst expectations of $1.56 billion. The company achieved notable growth metrics, including a 15% year-over-year increase in gross bookings to $4.3 billion and a 10% rise in active riders to 24.7 million.
Black, whose Future Fund Active ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FFND#NYSE">FFND</a>) <a href="https://futurefundetf.com/fund">holds</a> positions in Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) but not in Lyft, recently addressed the future of ride-hailing platforms in the context of autonomous vehicle networks. 
He pointed to Uber&#8217;s 170 million monthly active users as a significant market advantage, comparing it to Amazon.com Inc.&#8217;s position in e-commerce with <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43551087/gary-black-says-teslas-insufficiently-robust-autonomous-network-to-compete-with-ubers-170-million-users-draws-parallels-to-amazons-e-commerce-domination">its 310 million monthly active users</a>.

Trump-Backed World Liberty Financial Unveils Strategic Token Reserve To 'Bolster' Bitcoin, Ethereum — Scoops Up Another $5 Million In ETH

Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) is riding a <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/02/43622437/meta-outperforms-magnificent-7-as-16-day-streak-puts-bulls-in-control">16-day win streak thanks</a> to its aggressive AI initiatives, while Tesla Inc.

What Happened: On Tuesday, while appearing on a CNBC segment, Ives highlighted Meta's AI-driven monetization strategy.
"It's about monetizing those three and a half billion DAUs," he said, adding that AI innovations "could be an incremental $100 per share" for Meta as the company ramps up its efforts.
Tesla has faced <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/02/43591152/tariffs-trade-wars-teslas-dilemma-is-the-ev-boom-hitting-a-roadblock">challenges in the EV sector</a>, he said but Ives believes its future lies beyond just cars. "It's about autonomous. It's about ultimate robotics. That's really the future. That's why we're bullish on Tesla," he stated.

He discussed the impact of the Jevons Paradox on AI infrastructure investment, suggesting that as costs decrease, investment will rise.
However, he said that the software aspect is where significant growth is expected, with companies like Palantir Technologies Inc.

Super Micro Computer, Upstart, Lyft, Doordash, Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives predicts Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) could emerge as a dominant force in the artificial intelligence software landscape, comparing it to industry giants Oracle Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) and Salesforce Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>).
What Happened: In a CNBC interview <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjS1KOIuy_0">on</a> Tuesday, Ives highlighted the multiplier effect of AI infrastructure spending, noting that &#8220;for every dollar spent on Nvidia chip, there&#8217;s an 8 to $10 multiplier across tech, across the ecosystem software.&#8221; He emphasized that this trend is particularly evident in companies like Palantir and Salesforce.
The analyst&#8217;s bullish stance on Palantir comes amid the company&#8217;s remarkable stock performance, with shares up nearly 350% over the past year. The AI software firm recently reported strong fourth-quarter results, with revenue reaching $827.52 million, exceeding analyst expectations of $775.91 million.
Ives pointed to Jevons Paradox &#8211; an economic theory suggesting increased efficiency leads to higher demand &#8211; as a key driver of AI software adoption. &#8220;This is the software age that&#8217;s now starting to take place,&#8221; Ives stated, predicting &#8220;a massive spending wave in 2025.

Why It Matters: The optimistic outlook aligns with Palantir CEO Alex Karp&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43449486/palantir-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-us-revenue-up-52-customer-count-up-43-strong-guidance-this-is-a-new-phase-unlike-anything-that-has-come-before">recent shareholder letter</a>, where he described the current period as &#8220;the beginning of the first act of a revolution.&#8221; The company&#8217;s growth is particularly strong in U.S. operations, with commercial revenue up 64% year-over-year to $214 million.
Despite Palantir&#8217;s high valuation metrics, including a price-to-earnings ratio of 613.95 and market capitalization of $258 billion, former hedge fund manager Martin Shkreli projects the company&#8217;s cash flow from operations to reach $1.8 billion in 2025 and $2.7 billion by 2026, suggesting potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43485885/pharma-bro-martin-shkreli-defends-palantirs-valuation-amid-24-surge-says-ai-firms-cash-flow-justifies-expensive-price">justification for the premium valuation</a>.
The stock&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PLTR/analyst-ratings">consensus price target</a> stands at $65.50, based on 23 analyst ratings. The highest target is $125, while the lowest is $7.50. The most recent ratings from Citigroup, RBC Capital, and UBS suggest an average price target of $85, implying a 24.95% downside from current levels.

Price Action: Palantir stock has surged 340% in 2024, trading within a 52-week range of $20.33 to $116.76. It closed at $112.62 on Tuesday, down 3.45%, with a slight 0.56% after-hours recovery, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

What Happened: Bitcoin started to slide in the morning hours and hit an intraday low of $94,875.04 before recovering to $96,000 late evening.
Ethereum fell back to the $2,600 zone a day after breaching $2,700. The two leading assets were down 2.61% and 5.19%, respectively, over the week.
In a significant development, Fed Chair Powell assured to "take a fresh look" at debanking, which the cryptocurrency industry had <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43477333/crypto-czar-sacks-says-potential-bitcoin-reserve-to-be-one-of-crypto-committees-first-priorities">complained</a> about during the previous administration.
Powell also stated that the Fed won't develop a central bank digital currency under his watch during his testimony before the Senate Banking Committee.
Meanwhile, cryptocurrency liquidations reached $228 million over the last 24 hours, with long liquidations accounting for $154 million.
Bitcoin's Open Interest rose by 1.49% in the last 24 hours. A rise in Open Interest, coming alongside a price drop, indicated the opening of new short positions.
That said, the number of traders betting on Bitcoin's price increase was still higher than targeting price declines, according to the Long/Short ratio.
Market sentiment returned to the "Fear" zone, according to the Crypto Fear &amp; Greed Index.

The global cryptocurrency market capitalization stood at $3.15 trillion, declining by 1.68% in the last 24 hours.
Stocks were a mixed bag on Tuesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 123.24 points, or 0.28%, to close at 44,593.65. The S&amp;P 500 eked out a narrow gain of 0.03%, ending at 6,068.50. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite, on the other hand, fell 0.36% to close at 19,643.86.

Analyst Notes: Popular cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez noted Bitcoin's accumulation trend score was close to zero, indicating that the apex digital asset was undergoing consolidation.
"A shift in demand here could set the stage for the next big move," the analyst predicted.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Dip Even As Fed Chair Powell Says No To CBDC: Analyst Says BTC Under Consolidation But 'Next Big Move' Likely

OpenAI's board has not officially received Elon Musk's <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/02/43609104/elon-musk-co-founded-openai-now-hes-bidding-974b-to-take-back-the-company">$97.4 billion takeover bid</a>, despite claims from the Tesla CEO's legal team that the offer was sent.
What Happened: Musk earlier this week announced a bid to acquire the company. However, a source familiar with the situation told Reuters that OpenAI's board has not received any formal proposal.
Musk's attorney, Marc Toberoff told the publication that a four-page Letter of Intent outlining the bid was emailed to OpenAI's legal representatives at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen &amp; Katz.

&#8220;Whether Sam Altman chose to provide or withhold this from OpenAI&#8217;s other Board members is outside of our control,&#8221; he said.
At an AI summit in Paris, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman dismissed Musk's attempt outright, saying, "I have nothing to say. I mean, it&#8217;s ridiculous."
Adding, "The company is not for sale. It's another one of his tactics to try to mess with us."
Internally on Monday, Altman said that though the board had not formally reviewed the offer, it intends to reject it.

Why It Matters: Musk, who co-founded OpenAI alongside Altman and others, left the company in 2018 due to disagreements over its direction.
Now, as OpenAI transitions to a for-profit model, Musk&#8217;s bid is seen by some, including Altman, as an attempt to &#8220;<a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43622400/sam-altman-says-elon-musks-97b-bid-for-openai-is-a-move-to-slow-down-a-competitor">slow down a competitor</a>.&#8221;&nbsp;
The Tesla CEO co-founded and currently leads OpenAI rival, xAI. It was valued at $50 billion in November 2024. Meanwhile, ChatGPT-parent is reportedly <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/media/25/01/43374528/softbank-may-lead-openais-40-billion-funding-round-at-a-300-billion-valuation-despite-deepseek-disruption-report">raising $40 billion</a> valuing it at $300 billion.

Elon Musk's $97.4 Billion OpenAI Takeover Bid Reportedly Not Received By ChatGPT Parent: 'Another One Of His Tactics,' Says Sam Altman

President Donald Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43527354/elon-musks-expanding-government-role-far-beyond-appropriate-gop-senator-warns">decision to freeze the U.S. Agency for International Development's $40 billion budget</a> is drawing praise from authoritarian leaders who have long sought to silence independent media in their countries.
&#8220;[Russian President Vladimir] Putin has been trying to kill independent media for God knows how many years now. Ironically the country that has this free speech is now about to give it the death blow,&#8221; Derk Sauer, founder of the online newspaper Moscow Times, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/10b6a51f-35d4-4f17-86ff-15bc9751f73d">told the Financial Times last week</a>.

</ul>
The freeze halts $268 million allocated by Congress for &#8220;independent media and the free flow of information&#8221; globally, according to Reporters Without Borders. The impact spans from Eastern Europe to Latin America, with many independent outlets facing immediate funding crises, the Financial Times reported.&nbsp;
Russian officials celebrated the move. Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chair of the Russian security council, praised the &#8220;smart move to plug USAID&#8217;s deep throat,&#8221; while Hungarian government officials called the freeze &#8220;refreshing,&#8221; according to the Financial Times..

The cuts threaten critical investigative journalism networks. The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, known for investigations like the Panama Papers, told the Financial Times it will lose over a quarter of its budget. &#8220;The short-term impact is really brutal. Like others, we are trying to find alternative sources of funding. Many will find it difficult to survive,&#8221; Paul Radu, OCCRP co-founder, told the newspaper.&nbsp;
In Belarus, at least six independent news outlets in exile reported complete funding cessation. Ukrainian media, heavily dependent on U.S. grants, face similar risks. Russia&#8217;s Meduza, a major independent outlet, called an emergency board meeting to discuss its future, the Financial Times reported.&nbsp;
Trump amplified conspiracy theories about the program on Truth Social, falsely claiming billions were &#8220;stollen&#8221; [sic] by mainstream media as &#8220;payoffs.&#8221; While the U.S. government purchases media subscriptions, it does not directly fund major Western news organizations.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
For exiled journalists, the impact is immediate. In New York, Russian journalists studying on USAID grants expect to lose housing and living stipends next week. &#8220;First, you get expelled by Putin. Then this,&#8221; one journalist told the Financial Times, requesting anonymity due to ongoing funding negotiations.
A U.S. official suggested some funding might resume after the 90-day review, but media observers warn many outlets cannot survive the gap. &#8220;We&#8217;ve been told to stop working, we cannot spend any money, there is no cash coming in,&#8221; one Balkans-based official said to the Financial Times.

'Putin Has Been Trying To Kill Independent Media For Years'—Now Trump Is Helping

Social Security is one of the most critical safety nets for retirees in the U.S., but it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/05/38943129/social-security-fears-go-viral-should-you-claim-early-like-dave-ramsey-says">faces a funding shortfall</a> that could result in benefit cuts within the next decade. While some argue for raising the retirement age or reducing payouts, labor economist Teresa Ghilarducci believes the real solution is increasing revenue.

<li>How do billionaires pay less in income tax than you?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/tax-deferring-adv"> Tax deferring is their number one strategy</a>.</li>
</ul>
Ghilarducci, a professor of economics at The New School, suggests that requiring the wealthiest Americans to contribute more to Social Security could significantly reduce the deficit. &#8220;If <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42821537/15-minutes-into-2025-elon-musk-was-done-with-social-security-tax-meanwhile-94-of-americans-take-the-entire-year">Elon Musk paid for Social Security</a> just on his salary for the entire year and some of his capital gains were taxed to fund Social Security, just one person, it would save 1/20 of the deficit in Social Security,&#8221; she said in a 2024 Bloomberg <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ok9gzE5-8wk">interview</a>. &#8220;Imagine broadening that out to maybe 20,000 other people.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Public Support for Higher Taxes on the Wealthy</h2>
A recent <a href="https://www.nasi.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/NASI_SocialSecurityat90.pdf">survey</a> from multiple organizations, including AARP and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, found that most Americans support tax increases to maintain Social Security benefits. Eighty-five percent of respondents said they would rather see taxes increase than their benefits cut.

The most popular proposal? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/42217382/bernie-sanders-demands-scrap-the-cap-on-social-security-taxes-its-absurd-a-billionaire-pays-same-amount-as-middle-class-earners">Eliminating the payroll tax cap</a> for earnings above $400,000. Currently, Social Security taxes only apply to income up to $176,100 in 2025, meaning high earners stop contributing after that threshold. Raising or removing the cap would require top earners to pay more and increase their eventual benefits.
Another widely supported measure is gradually increasing the payroll tax rate from 6.2% to 7.2% for both workers and employers. The incremental change would generate more funding without significantly burdening middle-class Americans.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Myth of Working Longer as a Solution</h2>
While some believe people should work longer to improve retirement security, Ghilarducci strongly disagrees. &#8220;Not everyone is living longer,&#8221; she explained. While wealthier Americans in white-collar jobs often have longer life expectancies, many blue-collar and service workers face declining health due to physically demanding work, stress, and economic hardship. &#8220;A lot of jobs that aren&#8217;t blue-collar have become pink-collar … requiring a lot of heavy lifting, stooping and bending. Those jobs break bodies down,&#8221; she said.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A New Retirement Plan for Millions</h2>
Ghilarducci also backs a national retirement savings plan that would automatically enroll workers who don&#8217;t have access to employer-sponsored pensions. The Retirement Savings for Americans Act would create a government-administered pension plan with mandatory contributions. Workers earning below the median income would receive a 5% government match, helping them build long-term savings.
She argues that this model, which resembles pension systems in other developed nations, is far superior to the current 401(k) system, which she calls a &#8220;mistake.&#8221; &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/43571028/inflation-proof-your-retirement-why-401-k-s-may-fall-short-and-what-to-do-instead">The 401(k) system was a mistake</a> if it was meant to be the retirement system for all Americans.

Labor Economist Says Musk Paying Full Annual Social Security Taxes Would Cut The Deficit By 1/20 – 'Imagine Expanding That To 20,000 Others'

French President Emmanuel Macron has rejected the proposal by President Donald Trump to convert Gaza into a real estate project. Macron emphasized the need for respect for Palestinians and their Arab neighbors.
What Happened: Macron, in a CNN <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/02/11/europe/macron-trump-gaza-real-estate-intl/index.html">interview</a>, stressed that the Gaza issue requires a political solution rather than a real estate one. He criticized the idea of displacing 2 million Gazans, stating, &#8220;You cannot say to 2 million people, &#8216;okay, now guess what? You will move.'&#8221;
&#8220;The right answer is not a real estate operation, this is a political operation,&#8221; said the French president.
Trump&#8217;s proposal, which has sparked controversy, involves relocating Palestinians from Gaza to Egypt and Jordan, while the U.S. takes long-term ownership of the enclave. He envisions transforming Gaza into a &#8220;Middle Eastern Riviera.&#8221;
Macron has consistently disagreed with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over Israel&#8217;s military operations in Gaza and Lebanon. In October 2024, France suspended arms exports to the Israel Defense Forces, urging other nations to follow suit.
Macron&#8217;s comments come amid a wave of international criticism, including from the United Nations and Spain, against Trump&#8217;s plans. The proposal has also sparked plans for redevelopment of Gaza by far-right settler groups in Israel, which would be illegal under international law.

Why It Matters: Trump&#8217;s proposal to &#8220;take over the Gaza Strip,&#8221; level it, and rebuild the area after Palestinians are sent elsewhere has been <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43503385/trumps-gaza-plan-for-seaside-resort-faces-global-pushback">widely rejected</a> by world leaders. They argue that moving nearly 2 million Palestinians from Gaza is tantamount to ethnic cleansing.
Arab foreign ministers have also&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43420541/arab-nations-reject-trumps-controversial-gaza-plan-heres-why">rejected</a>&nbsp;Trump's suggestion to transfer&nbsp;Palestinians from Gaza to neighboring&nbsp;Egypt and Jordan, calling it a destabilizing move that would threaten peace in the region.
Despite the global pushback, Trump, in a White House meeting with Jordan's King Abdullah, reiterated his threat that the U.S. will take control of the Gaza Strip and move the Palestinians living there to either Jordan or Egypt or somewhere else, as <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43637482/trump-gaza-cherish-it-white-house-meeting-with-jordans-king-abdullah">reported</a>.

The company profits from AI-powered hiring processes yet restricts candidates from using the same tools to improve their chances in an increasingly competitive job market. Meanwhile, AI is being widely adopted across hiring processes, with 98.4% of Fortune 500 companies using AI to filter applications and 43% of companies either using or planning to use AI for interviews, according to Jobscan.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Anthropic's AI Ambitions</h2>
Anthropic is at the forefront of AI development, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39426605/google-amazon-backed-openai-rival-anthropic-unveils-claude-3-5-sonnet-its-most-powerful-ai-yet">competing with OpenAI</a> and other major players. The company recently saw its annualized revenue surge to $1 billion, a tenfold increase from the previous year. It is also reportedly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43127416/anthropic-gains-big-with-google-backing-aiming-for-60-billion-valuation-and-surging-ai-revenue">securing $2 billion in funding</a>, which could triple its valuation to $60 billion.
Backed by Amazon's $8 billion investment and Google's recent $1 billion contribution, Anthropic is pushing forward with AI advancements. CEO Dario Amodei <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/01/43094410/jeff-bezos-backed-anthropic-ceo-predicts-ai-will-surpass-human-intelligence-by-2027-but-warns-to-watch-out-for-negative-consequences">has predicted</a> that AI could surpass human intelligence within two to three years. He recently stated that Artificial General Intelligence—AI with human-level capabilities—could emerge by 2026 or 2027, barring setbacks like data shortages, GPU production issues, or scalability problems.

While AI companies like Anthropic push for rapid advancements, they also set rules that seem to favor employers over job seekers. The rise of AI-driven hiring has already overwhelmed recruiters, leading to a cycle where companies turn to AI to sort through AI-generated applications.
Anthropic's policy highlights a growing concern. AI is being used to reshape the job market, but workers are being told they can't use it to compete. As both sides of hiring increasingly rely on AI, critics argue that companies must set fair and transparent standards—or risk creating a system where only employers benefit from AI's efficiencies.
For now, if you're applying to Anthropic, leave AI out of it. But once you're hired, feel free to use it all you want.

In fact, he thinks it's impossible. "At this point, I think that sustainable transport is inevitable," Musk told investors.&nbsp;
Musk compared the shift to EVs to the transition from horse-drawn carriages to automobiles. "Even if you were the biggest horse advocate on Earth, you couldn't stop the advent of the automobile. And you can't stop the advent of electric cars," he said on a call late last month to discuss Tesla's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) latest quarterly results.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The biggest hurdle for EVs used to be range, but Musk says that's no longer an issue. With more charging infrastructure and better battery technology, people aren't as hesitant to switch. Still, the political scene is shifting, and some wonder what that means for Tesla and the industry as a whole.&nbsp;&nbsp;

One of Trump's first moves in office was to undo Joe Biden's goal of having 50% of new car sales be electric by 2030. He also wants to get rid of the federal EV tax credit, which gives buyers up to $7,500 in incentives.&nbsp;
That could make EVs a harder sell, but Musk isn't too concerned. In fact, he's actually in favor of ending those subsidies.&nbsp;
"Take away the subsidies. It will only help Tesla," <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1813112958157005259?lang=en">he said on X </a>last July. His argument? Tesla has already built a strong EV business, while other automakers still rely on incentives to stay competitive.&nbsp;&nbsp;

That doesn't mean everything is smooth sailing for Tesla. According to Electrive, EV sales in the U.S. grew by only 7.3% in 2024, reaching 1.3 million units. That's just a slight bump from 7.8% to 8.1% of total car sales. Meanwhile, Tesla's own sales dropped by 5.6% to 633,762 vehicles—their first annual decline in over a decade.&nbsp;&nbsp;
But Musk believes Tesla's real edge isn't just in electric cars; it's in self-driving technology. "There is a path where Tesla is worth more than the next top five car companies combined&#8230; and that is overwhelmingly due to autonomous vehicles and autonomous humanoid robots," he said on the Jan. 30 earnings call.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
Tesla is also making adjustments based on new policy changes. For example, the company had planned to expand into Mexico, but Musk recently put that on hold after <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">Trump </a>suggested heavy tariffs on Mexican-made cars. "Trump has said that he will put heavy tariffs on vehicles produced in Mexico, so it doesn't make sense to invest in Mexico," Musk said on a separate earnings call in July amid the 2024 presidential campaign.&nbsp;
Despite these challenges, Tesla isn't slowing down. The company is rolling out a driverless ride-hailing service in Austin within the next six months and is on track to produce autonomous "cybercabs" by 2026. It's also planning to unveil a working prototype of their Optimus humanoid robot in 2025.&nbsp;&nbsp;
