Shares of companies within the broader industrial sector are trading lower amid economic worries driven by tariffs and trade policies. Investors may be expecting a decline in investment, which may also be weighing on the industry.

<p>Investors looking for a strategy that can weather economic ups and downs now <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">have a new option</a>. </p>
<p><strong>What Happened</strong>: <strong>State Street Global Advisors</strong>, in collaboration with <strong>Bridgewater Associates</strong>, has launched the <strong>SPDR Bridgewater All Weather ETF</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALLW#NASDAQ">ALLW</a>), a fund designed to provide steady returns across varying market conditions.</p>
<p>The expense ratio for ALLW is set at 0.85%. Historically, comprehending hedge fund strategies like those of Bridgewater has been challenging for retail investors, but this ETF provides a cost-effective and simpler way to gain exposure to their approach.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>A Strategy Rooted In Resilience</strong></h2>
<p>The ETF&#8217;s name is an homage to Bridgewater's so-called &#8220;All Weather&#8221; investment strategy, which aims to create a diversified portfolio that can withstand different economic cycles without requiring investors to time the market. </p>
<p>The ETF invests across global asset classes, including equities, bonds, and commodities, based on a model portfolio constructed by Bridgewater.</p>
<p>The next 10 years could look very different than the past due to dynamics like geopolitical tensions, heightened inflation, deglobalization, AI, and more,&#8221; Bridgewater's Co-Chief Investment Officer <strong>Karen Karniol-Tambour</strong> said. &#8220;Predicting exactly how this will play out will be extremely difficult, but all investors have a chance to prepare better for what's ahead. We're excited that the launch of ALLW gives us the ability to help a broader set of investors do exactly that.&#8221;</p>
<p>Many investors are <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250305462928/en/State-Street-Global-Advisors-Expands-Access-to-Bridgewater-Associates%E2%80%99-All-Weather-Asset-Allocation-Approach">concerned</a> over the heavy reliance on equities, which often account for over 90% of risk in traditional portfolios. The ALLW ETF seeks to create a more balanced risk exposure by diversifying into multiple asset classes. </p>
<p>&#8220;A well-diversified portfolio is crucial for long-term wealth accumulation, and ALLW helps investors achieve that resilience,&#8221; State Street Global Advisors Chief Business Officer <strong>Anna Paglia</strong> said.</p>
<p>State Street Global Advisors had introduced the first U.S.-listed ETF over 30 years ago. With ALLW, the firm continues to bring institutional-level investment strategies to a broader audience. The ETF follows in the footsteps of other successful SPDR funds, such as the <strong>SPDR DoubleLine Total Return ETF</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TOTL#NYSE">TOTL</a>) and the <strong>SPDR Blackstone Senior Loan ETF </strong>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SRLN#NYSE">SRLN</a>).</p>

Shares of construction-related stocks are trading lower amid economic worries driven by tariffs and trade policies. Investors may be expecting a decline in investment, which may also be weighing on the industry.

<p><strong>Bitcoin </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) has fallen below $79,000 on Monday, raising concerns among analysts who believe the downturn may not be over.</p>
<p>With <strong>XRP </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/xrp/usd">XRP</a>), <strong>Ethereum </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) and other altcoins also under pressure, experts suggest that market expectations have been reset, and further corrections <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/03/44227857/bitcoins-drops-below-80000-correction-or-buying-opportunity">remain a possibility</a>.</p>
<p><strong>What Happened: </strong>Bitcoin is currently trading at $78,650, down 4.5% in the past 24 hours, while Ethereum has dropped 4.7% to $1,925.</p>
<p>Among major altcoins, XRP and <strong>BNB </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/bnb/usd">BNB</a>) have declined 2% each, <strong>Solana </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) has fallen 6%, and <strong>Dogecoin </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) is down 5%.</p>
<p>The crypto market has seen $637.35 million in liquidations over the past day, with long positions accounting for $460.19 million, according to <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/LiquidationData">data</a> from <strong>Coinglass</strong>.</p>
<p>The decline follows Bitcoin's peak at $109,000 in January, marking a nearly 25% drop that has erased most of its previous gains. </p>
<p><strong>What Experts Are Saying: </strong>According to <strong>James Toledano</strong>, Chief Operating Officer of <strong>Unity Wallet</strong>, the pullback is largely due to unrealistic expectations surrounding the strategic Bitcoin reserve.</p>
<p>"The biggest letdown has been the U.S. Bitcoin Strategic Reserve, which turned out to be nothing more than a repackaging of seized FBI assets—around 200,000 BTC, just 1% of Bitcoin's market cap—placed under the control of the Federal Reserve," Toledano told Benzinga.</p>
<p>Macroeconomic factors are also weighing on the market. </p>
<p>Rising inflation, shifting Federal Reserve policy expectations, and the recent U.S. tariff policy have prompted institutional investors to reduce exposure to risk assets. </p>
<p>Toledano noted that the U.S. economy has contracted by 2.5% following tariff implementation, adding to concerns of an economic slowdown.</p>
<p>Despite the current downturn, some analysts argue that crypto remains in a long-term growth phase. </p>
<p>Speaking with Benzinga, <strong>Marcin Kazmierczak</strong>, Co-founder and COO of <strong>RedStone</strong>, said he believes institutional interest remains strong but acknowledges that regulatory changes take time to impact prices.</p>
<p>"Fundamentals for crypto are strong: incoming U.S. reserves, new applications in DeFi, both stablecoins and RWAs are at all-time highs," Kazmierczak said. "Legislation and the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve need time to be properly implemented and reflected in the market."</p>
<p>The lack of immediate clarity from the White House Crypto Summit has also contributed to market hesitation.</p>
<p><strong>Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/03/44221339/why-did-trumps-strategic-crypto-reserve-not-include-xrp">Why Did Trump&#8217;s Strategic Crypto Reserve Not Include XRP?</a></strong></p>
<p><strong>Feng He</strong>, CEO of <strong>Deeplink</strong>, told Benzinga that traders were expecting the event to provide a positive catalyst, but instead, uncertainty has persisted.</p>
<p>"The ambiguity stemming from the White House Crypto Summit has undercut market momentum, and traders were hoping this would be a catalyst for positive price action," Feng said. "While it's difficult to predict the exact bottom, I&#8217;m sure many BTC maxis will seize the opportunity to buy BTC under $80,000, but further corrections could occur if investor sentiment weakens."</p>
<p>While some investors are buying the dip, experts warn that Bitcoin's price could see further downside if macroeconomic concerns persist. </p>
<p>The absence of strong buying pressure following the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve announcement suggests that investors remain cautious. </p>
<p>Feng He believes any potential rebound will be slow to develop.</p>
<p>"While the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve has received mixed reviews, any positive price impact will likely materialize gradually over the coming months as opposed to an immediate return to the $100,000 level for BTC," he said.</p>
<p><strong>What&#8217;s Next: </strong>With Bitcoin struggling to find support and altcoins facing selling pressure, analysts are watching for signs of stabilization. Until economic conditions improve or regulatory clarity is established, further volatility remains likely.</p>
<p><strong>Aurelie Barthere</strong>, Principal Research Analyst at <strong>Nansen</strong> told Benzinga that alts have broken key supports, and it is hard to estimate the next-level and that this is a macro correction.</p>
<p>&#8220;Next level will be $71,000 to $72,000, top of the pre-election trading range. We are still in a correction within a bull market: stocks and crypto have realized and are pricing; a period of tariff uncertainty and fiscal cuts, no Fed put. Recession fears are popping up,&#8221; Barthere said.</p>
<p>She stressed that there is no hint of a recession yet and that relief could come by April after the implementation of the next round of tariffs.</p>

DUOL

Assessing Duolingo: Insights From 11 Financial Analysts

<p><strong>Paramount Global</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>) just sent a powerful technical signal to traders—the stock has completed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/golden-cross">a <strong>Golden Cross</strong></a>. </p>
<p>This rare and often bullish formation occurs when the 50-day simple moving average crosses above the 200-day simple moving average, signaling that short-term momentum is outpacing long-term trends. </p>
<p><figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="628" height="485" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/10100319/Screenshot-2025-03-10-at-7.32.35-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-816805" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/10100319/Screenshot-2025-03-10-at-7.32.35-PM.png 628w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/10100319/Screenshot-2025-03-10-at-7.32.35-PM-300x232.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px" /></a></figure></p>

<p>With PARA stock trading at $12.10, well above both its 50-day and 200-day averages, the setup suggests strong upward momentum.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Bullish Case Beyond The Golden Cross</h2>
<p>The bullish case for Paramount Global doesn't end with the Golden Cross. The stock is trading above its five-day, 20-day and 50-day exponential moving averages, reinforcing the strength of the uptrend. The eight-day simple moving average sits at $11.61, while the 20-day simple moving average is at $11.34, both trailing behind PARA's current price. These indicators suggest buying pressure remains intact.</p>
<p>Adding to the momentum, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator is at 0.27, another signal that PARA stock is in bullish territory. Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index has reached 70.98, signaling that the stock is overbought, but given the huge positive trading volume, traders could view this as confirmation of strong demand rather than an immediate bearish signal.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">PARA Stock: Riding The Wave Of A Strong Year</h2>
<p>Paramount Global has gained 14.51% year to date, with a 14.83% increase in just the past month. Over the last five days alone, the stock has climbed 7.5%, indicating that momentum traders have been actively driving the price higher. </p>
<p>With the technical setup favoring bulls, PARA stock could be primed for further gains, provided buying pressure continues to support the stock.</p>
<p>While the company remains at the center of corporate shake-ups, including the pending <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/07/39658163/paramount-board-endorses-merger-with-skydance-media-as-david-ellison-nears-acquisition-of-m">Skydance merger and speculation</a> over <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/03/10/media/ex-cnn-boss-jeff-zucker-wont-join-paramount-after-skydance-merger-sources/">leadership changes</a>, the stock's technicals suggest traders are more focused on momentum than boardroom drama. As long as PARA stock stays above its key moving averages, the bullish trend remains intact.</p>
<p>With a Golden Cross lighting the way, traders betting on further upside in Paramount Global may just have their signal to stay in the game.</p>
