Well-known crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe has predicted a potential surge in the altcoin market, following a period of stagnation. The analyst has also identified a critical support level for&nbsp;Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>)&nbsp;to maintain its upward trajectory.
What Happened: Van de Poppe suggests the altcoin market is poised for an upswing after hitting a low.
The analyst shared with his 751,700 followers on X that the OTHERS chart, which monitors the market cap of all cryptocurrencies except the top 10 coins and stablecoins, is showing&nbsp;a bullish pattern on the&nbsp;weekly timeframe.
"The altcoin market capitalization (OTHERS) has bottomed out. There is a bullish divergence and a strong move upwards, which suggests that we're likely just making a higher low here. Onwards and upwards," he said.

Van de Poppe also forecasts a significant rise for&nbsp;Aptos (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">APT</a>), predicting it will climb over 41% from its current price. He expects APT to reach targets of $17 and $20, with APT currently trading at $14.18, marking a 3% increase in the past day.

Regarding&nbsp;Bitcoin, the analyst emphasizes the importance of maintaining a support level above $98,000 to sustain its upward momentum. BTC is currently valued at $101,170, rebounding from a brief dip into the $99,000 range.

Why It Matters: In the weeks leading up to this prediction,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42127938/bitcoin-analyst-warns-of-4-6-flash-crashes-before-year-end-as-it-inches-closer-to-100k-thats-the-moment-altcoins-shoot-off">van de Poppe</a>&nbsp;had warned of potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42127938/bitcoin-analyst-warns-of-4-6-flash-crashes-before-year-end-as-it-inches-closer-to-100k-thats-the-moment-altcoins-shoot-off">&#8220;4-6 flash crashes&#8221;</a> for Bitcoin as it approached the $100,000 mark.
These corrections were expected to cause Bitcoin to drop by 5-10% in a single day, while altcoins could see even larger declines of 20-30%.
Despite these potential setbacks, van de Poppe suggested that these dips could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42022585/michael-van-de-poppe-says-bitcoin-ethereum-and-altcoins-close-to-the-point-where-investors-can-buy-the-dip">serve as strategic entry points</a> for investors, as Bitcoin&#8217;s consolidation might trigger an altcoin rally.

Crypto Analyst Foresees Altcoin Rally And Sets Crucial Bitcoin Support Level

Peter Thiel has voiced his support for the Elon Musk-led <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/department-of-government-efficiency">Department of Government Efficiency</a> initiative, suggesting it could be a key strategy to prevent significant tax increases.
What Happened: During an interview on Thursday with Piers Morgan, Thiel noted that while many in Washington doubt the success of DOGE, he cautions against underestimating Musk&#8217;s potential.
The PayPal co-founder pointed out the unsustainable nature of the U.S. government&#8217;s 6% GDP deficit, indicating that the nation faces a choice between cutting spending and waste or imposing substantial tax hikes.
He pointed out that the recent U.S. election reflects a preference against European-style socialist tax increases, making initiatives like DOGE essential.

In response to Thiel&#8217;s comments, Musk concurred, stating, &#8220;Peter is right on all counts.&#8221;&nbsp;

Why It Matters: The DOGE initiative, led by Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, aims to streamline federal spending and reduce the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42253427/elon-musks-doge-dream-team-from-marc-andreessen-to-ubers-travis-kalanick-silicon-valley-titans-join-forces-to-overhaul-federal-spending">budget by up to $2 trillion</a>.
The initiative has attracted Silicon Valley&#8217;s top minds to identify cost-cutting opportunities.
Ramaswamy has previously stated that most government projects should have a clear end date, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42391076/vivek-ramaswamy-says-most-government-projects-should-come-with-a-clear-expiry-date-heres-when-he-says-doge-will-end">DOGE set to conclude on July 4, 2026</a>, aligning with America&#8217;s 250th Independence Day.

Peter Thiel Believes Elon Musk's DOGE Initiative Is The Answer To Avoiding Massive Tax Hikes: Tesla CEO Says He Is 'Right On All Counts'

The much-awaited reconstitution of the Nasdaq 100 index has taken place, resulting in the addition of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) proxy MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>), Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>), and Axon Enterprise Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXON#NASDAQ">AXON</a>).
This change will take effect before the market opens on Dec. 23, 2024.
What Happened:&nbsp;Nasdaq&nbsp;announced on Saturday the results of its&nbsp;annual reconstitution of the Nasdaq-100&nbsp;Index.
The Nasdaq-100 Index, a benchmark for non-financial companies on the Nasdaq, was launched in January 1985. It serves as a basis for financial products like&nbsp;options, futures, and funds.
The&nbsp;annual reconstitution aligns&nbsp;with the quadruple witch expiration&nbsp;Friday of the quarter, a strategic timing for the index.

As a result of this reconstitution,&nbsp;three companies will be removed&nbsp;from the index:&nbsp;Illumina, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ILMN#NASDAQ">ILMN</a>),&nbsp;Super Micro Computer, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>), and&nbsp;Moderna, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRNA#NASDAQ">MRNA</a>).
The Nasdaq-100 Index is integral to the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which seeks to mirror the index&#8217;s performance. Options, futures, and structured products based on the Nasdaq-100 Index and the Invesco QQQ Trust are traded on various exchanges.
Why It Matters: The inclusion of&nbsp;MicroStrategy&nbsp;in the Nasdaq-100 could significantly boost its visibility and attract fresh inflows from major ETFs like QQQ.
Analysts at Bernstein have suggested that this move, combined with MicroStrategy&#8217;s aggressive&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42433049/microstrategy-nasdaq-100-inclusion-on-the-horizon-could-spell-59-upside-says-bernstein">Bitcoin acquisition strategy</a>, could lead to a 59% upside for the company, with a target price of $600.
Meanwhile,&nbsp;Palantir&nbsp;is positioned to become &#8220;the next Oracle&#8221; in 2025, according to Wedbush Securities' Dan Ives. The company&#8217;s AI platform is seen as a transformative force in enterprise operations, with significant results already demonstrated through its Warp Speed manufacturing operating system.
This development could further enhance Palantir&#8217;s standing in both government and commercial sectors, as highlighted in Ives&#8217;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42453057/palantir-positioned-to-become-the-next-oracle-in-2025-says-dan-ives-messi-of-ai-set-for-breakout-year">annual sector outlook</a>.
On the other hand,&nbsp;Super Micro Computer&nbsp;finds itself removed from the index, despite benefiting from the surging demand for AI infrastructure. The company faced challenges due to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42445956/smci-teeters-on-edge-of-nasdaq-100-is-friday-d-day-for-super-micro">recent auditing scandal</a>, which significantly impacted its market capitalization.

U.S. lawmakers have issued a directive to Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google to prepare for the removal of ByteDance-owned TikTok from their app stores by Jan. 19.
What Happened: This move follows a federal appeals court ruling that requires <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tiktok">ByteDance to divest TikTok</a> in the U.S. or face a ban.
Representatives John Moolenaar and Raja Krishnamoorthi have urged TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew to sell the app, which is used by 170 million Americans, reported Reuters.
&#8220;Congress has acted decisively to defend the national security of the United States and protect TikTok's American users from the Chinese Communist Party. We urge TikTok to immediately execute a qualified divestiture,&#8221; the lawmakers wrote.

Why It Matters: The push for TikTok&#8217;s removal comes after a series of legal and political challenges. Earlier this month, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42369266/meta-reddit-stocks-climb-record-highs-as-tiktoks-battle-against-us-ban-continues-after-court-ruling">TikTok lost a court appeal</a> against a U.S. ban.
The ruling upheld legislation requiring TikTok to sell to a non-Chinese owner or face removal from U.S. app stores by Jan. 19, 2025.
On Monday, ByteDance and TikTok sought an emergency block on the law pending a U.S. Supreme Court review.
The Department of Justice stated that while the ban wouldn&#8217;t immediately stop current users from accessing TikTok, it would eventually make the app unusable due to lack of support.

In response on Thursday, TikTok warned that without a court order, the app would vanish from stores on Jan. 19, affecting half of the U.S. population.
Meanwhile, President-elect Donald Trump has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39827954/trump-for-tiktok-competition-to-mark-zuckerberg-if-you-dont-have-tiktok-you-have-facebook-and-instag">pledged to prevent the ban</a>, and Senator Josh Hawley expressed hope for a sale, citing concerns over Chinese oversight.
Previously in October, leaked documents revealed that TikTok was aware of the potential harm its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41305213/leaked-documents-tiktok-knew-algorithm-had-harmful-effects-on-children">algorithm could inflict on children</a>. This revelation was part of a multi-state investigation into the platform&#8217;s allegedly addictive nature.
There have been speculations about potential buyers for TikTok. In September, it was reported reported that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40866761/is-amazon-eyeing-tiktok-for-a-possible-acquisition">TikTok was strengthening ties</a> with Amazon.com Inc., sparking rumors of a possible acquisition.

Apple, Google Directed To Remove TikTok From Respective App Stores By Jan 19: Here's What You Need To Know

Bank of America (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) and Goldman Sachs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) are reportedly planning to contribute to President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s inaugural committees. 
What Happened: Both the U.S.&#8217;s second-largest lender and the investment bank are yet to decide on the amount they intend to contribute, Reuters reported on Friday, citing spokespeople for both banks. 
Bank of America contributed $1 million to Trump&#8217;s 2017 inauguration. JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. then donated $500,000. The latter did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga</a>&#8216;s request for comment on whether it intends to contribute this year. 
BofA also contributed a million dollars to President Joe Biden&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/21/04/20727582/corporate-america-helped-pour-61m-into-biden-inaugural-committee-here-are-the-companies-that-donated">inaugural fund in 2021</a>.
Why It Matters: An inaugural committee is appointed by the President-elect to be in charge of the presidential inaugural ceremony and activities connected with the ceremony.
It needs to disclose the donations it received to the Federal Election Commission no later than 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the 90th day following the date of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/17/01/8899048/does-the-stock-market-respond-to-presidential-inaugurations">presidential inaugural ceremony. </a>
The inaugural committee will plan and finance events excluding the swearing-in ceremony such as opening ceremonies and parades.

BofA, Goldman Sachs To Contribute To Trump's Inaugural Committees: Report

SpaceX investor Steve Jurvetson said on Friday that its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/starlink">Starlink manufacturing line</a> makes 4.7 million terminals every year.
What Happened: &#8220;The Starlink manufacturing line is the closest thing to a fully automated alien dreadnought that I have ever seen. It makes 4.7 million terminals per year, and growing. One subsection is the largest printed circuit board factory in America,&#8221; Jurvetson said in a post on social media platform X, formerly Twitter.
Jurvetson is a venture capitalist <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42284383/spacex-in-talks-for-tender-offer-valuing-company-at-about-350b-report">who invested early</a> in Elon Musk&#8217;s SpaceX. He is also on the company&#8217;s Board of Directors.
The manufacturing line Jurvetson referred to is at the company&#8217;s Starlink terminal manufacturing facility in Bastrop, Texas.
SpaceX said in a post on social media platform X in September that it is providing connectivity to over 4 million people around the globe while adding that the customers are spread across over 100 countries, territories, and other markets. Starlink announced that it is connecting over 3 million customers merely a few months back on May 20, implying that the segment added a million customers in just 4 months.
Why It Matters: SpaceX COO&nbsp;Gwynne Shotwell&nbsp;said at a conference hosted by Baron Capital last month that the company will make &#8220;some money&#8221; on Starlink this year. Starlink is the satellite internet segment of SpaceX. It achieved a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35583773/spacex-ceo-elon-musk-says-starlink-business-has-achieved-breakeven-cash-flow-is-an-ipo-on-the-cards" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">breakeven cash flow</a>&nbsp;in November 2023.
&#8220;We are going to make some money on Starlink this year. But ultimately I think Starship (the company's new rocket under development) will be the thing that takes us over the top as one of the most valuable companies,&#8221; she said. However, Shotwell refused to divulge more of the private company&#8217;s financials.
Investors can leverage Destiny Tech100 Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DXYZ#NYSE">DXYZ</a>) and Cathie Wood‘s Ark Venture Fund (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKVX#NASDAQ">ARKVX</a>) to participate in SpaceX's growth.

SpaceX's Starlink Manufacturing Line Makes 4.7 Million Terminals Per Year, Says Investor

&#8220;I love everything about Costco,&#8221; the late veteran investor Charlie Munger said during the Daily Journal&#8217;s annual shareholder meeting back in February 2023.
Zoom in the future, the company has reported fiscal 2025&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/earnings-beats/24/12/42483334/from-4-2-million-thanksgiving-pies-to-record-pizza-sales-costco-hits-4-major-milestones-in-q1-beating-earnings-estimates">first-quarter revenue and earnings per share</a> beating analyst estimates.
What Happened: Munger, who passed away last year, had a seat on Costco Wholesale Corporation&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) board till his death. This seat was first offered to Warren Buffett in 1997, which he declined, saying that retailing was a difficult business.
On the other hand, Munger admired Costco&#8217;s business model and recognized its unique approach to retailing, including its efficient operations, low prices, and membership model.
&#8220;I&#8217;m a total addict, and I&#8217;m never going to sell a share,&#8221; said Munger during the aforementioned shareholder meeting.
&#8220;I wish everything else in America was working as well as Costco does,&#8221; he said in early 2022. &#8220;Think what a blessing that would be for us all.&#8221;
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>, the shares of the company have risen 4,536% since 1997.

Why It Matters: Costco&#8217;s management highlighted four new milestones achieved by the company during the first quarter.
According to the president and CEO of the company Ron Vachris, &#8220;Costco Logistics completed nearly 1 million deliveries in Q1 and over 196,000 deliveries last week alone.&#8221; He said that Costco continued to gain market share within the e-commerce space, during the analyst earnings call held on Thursday.
Secondly, Costco&#8217;s U.S. bakery division, &#8220;Reached new records of 4.2 million pies being sold the three days prior to Thanksgiving,&#8221; said Vachris.
Talking about the pharmacy business Vachris added, &#8220;Our U.S. pharmacy business has prescription growth exceeding 19% for the first quarter, setting new volume records for that business.&#8221; And lastly, on Halloween Day, Costco, in its food courts, &#8220;set a new record of 274,000 whole pizzas being sold.&#8221;
&#8220;All of these milestones reflect the continued strength of our business across the membership offering,&#8221; said Vachris.

The highest price target out of all the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/COST/analyst-ratings">analysts tracked by Benzinga</a> is $1145 issued by Jefferies as of Dec. 5, 2024. The lowest target price is $700 issued by Barclays on March 11, 2024.
The average price target of $1073.33 between Telsey Advisory Group, Oppenheimer, and Jefferies implies a 10.10% side for Costco.

Charlie Munger Identified This Stock 30 Years Ago After Warren Buffett Passed On It: Here's How It Is Doing Now

A former OpenAI employee, Suchir Balaji, was discovered deceased in his San Francisco apartment. The 26-year-old had previously raised concerns about AI copyright issues.
What Happened: The San Francisco Office of the Chief Medical Examiner identified Balaji and determined the cause of death as suicide, <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/12/13/openai-whistleblower-found-dead-in-san-francisco-apartment/?guccounter=1&amp;guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly9uZXdzLmdvb2dsZS5jb20v&amp;guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAD_uBwDYVYnR2c7KWaVm_nY-">reported</a> TechCrunch.
Balaji, who had worked at OpenAI for nearly four years, left the company after expressing concerns about the potential societal harm of its technology
His primary concern was OpenAI&#8217;s alleged misuse of copyright data, which he believed was detrimental to the internet.

The whistleblower was found dead on Nov. 26 in his Buchanan Street apartment, according to the San Francisco Police Department.
Officers conducted a wellness check and found no evidence of foul play, the report noted.
In a statement to the report, OpenAI expressed their condolences, stating, &#8220;We are devastated to learn of this incredibly sad news today and our hearts go out to Suchir's loved ones during this difficult time.&#8221;
OpenAI co-founder and rival AI startup xAI&#8217;s founder Elon Musk also reacted to the news.

Why It Matters: The tragic death of Balaji comes amid ongoing tensions between OpenAI and Musk, a co-founder of the organization.
OpenAI has been embroiled in a legal battle with Musk, who has accused the company of straying from its original nonprofit mission.
The Tesla CEO&#8217;s lawsuit challenges OpenAI&#8217;s transition to a for-profit model, a move he claims undermines its founding principles.
In response, OpenAI accused <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/12/42493076/openai-challenges-musks-lawsuit-reveals-2017-profit-talks">Musk of attempting to gain control</a> over the company during earlier negotiations, which he abandoned when his proposal was rejected. 
Previously, it was also reported that OpenAI&#8217;s board was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42382569/elon-musk-asks-was-it-ever-not-a-lie-as-he-accuses-openai-of-selling-out-to-microsoft-and-betraying-its-founding-mission">considering removing a clause</a> that limits Microsoft Corp. from accessing its most advanced AI models, a decision that has drawn criticism from Musk.
This clause was initially intended to prevent the misuse of artificial general intelligence for commercial purposes.

OpenAI Whistleblower Found Dead After Raising AI Copyright Concerns

EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and CEO Elon Musk can now reportedly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42287471/delaware-judge-rejects-musks-56b-pay-package-again-heres-whats-coming-next">begin legal appeals</a> to try and reinstate the CEO&#8217;s $56 billion pay package.
What Happened: Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick of the Court of Chancery has issued an order opening a 30-day window for Tesla and Musk to appeal to the Delaware Supreme Court, Reuters reported on Friday. 
The Delaware Chancery Court Judge&nbsp;ruled in January that the $56 billion pay package would be voided given that Tesla's board was influenced by Musk when they adopted the plan in 2018.&nbsp;Tesla shareholders subsequently voted again<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39323339/tesla-shareholders-approve-elon-musk-56b-pay-package-other-company-proposals"> to reinstate the package</a> in June.
However, McCormick again ruled against the package earlier this month. 
Why It Matters: Tesla said earlier this month in a post on X that the company deems the ruling to be wrong and intends to appeal to the Delaware Supreme Court while adding that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42279851/elon-musk-56b-pay-package-rejected-by-judge-again-tesla-analyst-says-a-soap-opera-playing-out-in-delaware">judge overruled a supermajority of shareholders</a>. However, the Delaware Supreme Court can take around a year to issue a ruling.
Reuters on Friday also noted that Tesla would be able to appeal McCormick&#8217;s order directing the company to pay $345 million to the attorneys who represented the minor shareholder who sued to rescind the pay package.

Elon Musk Can Now Appeal To Restore His $56 Billion Tesla Pay Package: Report

President-elect Donald Trump on Friday announced plans to eliminate Daylight Saving Time, describing it as &#8220;inconvenient&#8221; and &#8220;costly.&#8221;
What Happened: Trump spoke about the Republican Party&#8217;s dedication to ending the time change, which he said is supported by a small but vocal group.
Trump argued that the practice is a burden and financially draining for the country.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">The Republican Party will use its best efforts to eliminate Daylight Saving Time, which has a small but strong constituency, but shouldn't! Daylight Saving Time is inconvenient, and very costly to our Nation.

Previously, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, who will co-lead the new Department of Government Efficiency, also voiced their support for ending the biannual clock adjustments.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
This change would require congressional approval.
Why It Matters: The debate over Daylight Saving Time has been ongoing for years, with arguments both for and against its continuation.&nbsp;
Trump has previously expressed support for ending the practice of clock changes, stating in a 2019 tweet, &#8220;Making Daylight Saving Time permanent is O.K. with me!&#8221;

Most U.S. states adjust their clocks in March and November to optimize daylight, resulting in earlier sunrises and sunsets for parts of the country during those five months, providing more morning light but reducing it in the evening.&nbsp;
Supporters, including medical experts, argue that this better aligns with the body's natural circadian rhythm, <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2024/12/13/politics/daylight-saving-time-trump/index.html">reported</a> CNN.
Proponents of permanent Daylight Saving Time favor later sunrises and sunsets, offering more evening light but less in the morning.
This option is popular among retailers, businesses, and restaurants, who see economic benefits from increased evening activity, as well as advocates who believe extended daylight in the evening could help reduce crime.

Trump Backs Plan To Scrap 'Very Costly' And 'Inconvenient' Daylight Saving Time

EV giant Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) on Friday increased the starting price of its Model S premium sedan in the U.S. by a whopping $5000 to $79,990, the same starting price as the Model X SUV. 
What Happened: The company hiked the starting price of both the All-Wheel drive variant and the Plaid version of the Model S by $5000 on its website, bringing price parity between it and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39854420/tesla-hikes-prices-by-2-000-on-model-s-x-variants-in-the-us-here-are-the-new-prices">respective variants of the Model X </a>premium SUV.
The Model X also starts at $79,990 for the All-Wheel Drive variant and at $94,990 for the Plaid variant.

<figcaption class="wp-element-caption">(All amounts in $)</figcaption></figure>
The last time Tesla hiked the price of Model S variants was in July. 
Why It Matters: Until the start of Cybertruck deliveries in late November last year, the Model S and Model X were Tesla&#8217;s only premium offerings. 
According to data from automotive research company Kelley Blue Book, &nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41325252/tesla-cybertruck-leads-the-pack-as-most-popular-ev-truck-in-us-in-q3-outselling-rivals-from-ford-gm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tesla sold 16,692 Cybertrucks</a>&nbsp;in the third quarter in the U.S., trumping EV trucks from rivals including the Ford F-150 Lightning and the Rivian R1T, to become the third-best-selling EV behind Model Y and Model 3.
However, the surge in sales of the Cybertruck negatively impacted the Model S and X. According to KBB estimates, Model S sales in the U.S. fell by about 47% year-on-year in the U.S. in the last quarter while Model X sales slipped by 29%.

Bernie Sanders is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/39817447/warren-buffett-says-anyone-who-works-40-hours-a-week-should-live-a-decent-life-heres-what-he-pro">challenging the wealthiest Americans</a> with his call for a 100% tax on income above $1 billion. In a May 2023 interview on HBO's Who's Talking to Chris Wallace?, Sanders explained his stance: "You may disagree with me, but I think people can make it on $999 million. I think that they can survive just fine."
According to a Fortune article, Wallace asked, "Are you basically saying that once you get to $999 million, the government should confiscate all the rest?" Sanders responded with a direct "yeah."

</ul>
This reflects his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42320573/musks-119-billion-wealth-increase-outpaces-dell-and-zuckerberg-but-guess-whos-catching-up">belief that the ultrarich</a> should not exist in a society with such extreme economic inequality. On his official Facebook page in September 2024, Sanders doubled down, saying, "We live in a nation today that has more income and wealth inequality than has ever existed in the history of the United States." He painted a stark picture of the divide, stating that while the billionaire class is "<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">doing phenomenally well</a>," 60% of Americans are "living paycheck to paycheck."
Sanders also addressed critics of his approach, saying, "What I believe is that we got to take on the greed of the billionaire class and say, yes, you know what, guys … you are going to start <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">paying your fair share of taxes.</a>"&nbsp;
His plan doesn't just target billionaires' income – it includes a progressive wealth tax on households worth over $32 million, starting at 1% and climbing to 8% for billionaires. He's also proposed an exit tax of 40–60% on assets for those renouncing U.S. citizenship to avoid taxes.

Critics argue that Sanders' wealth tax proposal could backfire, especially when fostering innovation and entrepreneurship. The National Taxpayers Union Foundation warns, "At a time when new entrepreneurship should be fostered, a wealth tax would do the opposite." Their concern is that such taxes would disincentivize business growth and innovation, as founders could face steep tax bills simply for owning successful companies.
For example, a business owner with a company valued at $100 million would owe $1.2 million annually under Sanders' plan, forcing them to sell part of their stake just to pay the tax. Over time, this could discourage the creation of transformative companies like Tesla or Apple. Critics fear that these measures would ultimately stifle the very kind of risk-taking that drives economic growth.
A report from TaxFoundation.org also warned that wealth taxes could lead to capital flight, pointing to countries like France and Germany that abandoned similar policies after they proved ineffective.

The results have been messy even in nations where wealth taxes still exist, like Spain and Norway. Spain, for example, has seen marginal tax rates climb above 100% in some cases, discouraging investment and hurting wealth generation across all income levels.
Despite the pushback, Sanders is standing firm. In his speech at the Democratic National Convention in August, Sanders stated, &#8220;Brothers and sisters, bottom line, we need an economy that works for all of us … not just the billionaire class."
Whether you agree with him or not, his proposal forces a crucial question: Is it time to rethink <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/can-you-guess-how-many-americans-successfully-retire-with-1-million-saved">how wealth is distributed in America</a>?
