Tesla Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) electric vehicle charging stations and home batteries have been excluded from rebates in the Canadian province of British Columbia. This move comes in the wake of tariffs imposed by the U.S. on Canada.
What Happened: BC Hydro, a Crown-owned utility, offers rebates of up to CAD 5,000 ($3464) on eligible battery storage systems and up to CAD 350 ($243) on the purchase and installation of EV chargers. However, Tesla products have been excluded from these rebates since March 12, according to a notice on BC Hydro&#8217;s website, as reported by <a href="https://www.autonews.com/manufacturing/automakers/anc-trump-tariffs-tesla-bc-hydro-rebates-1303/">Auto News</a> on Thursday.
Local media reports indicate that Tesla products such as EV chargers, energy storage batteries, and inverters are a part of the exclusion.
The announcement was made by British Columbia&#8217;s Energy Minister, Adrian Dix, following a review of the program managed by the energy utility BC Hydro. 
"I thought they [Tesla products] shouldn't be made available on a public subsidy program right now. I don't think anyone in British Columbia needs to be told why, and I think most people would support their removal from that list," Dix told CBS
Meanwhile, BC Hydro stated in a release that its rebate program prioritizes Canadian goods while excluding products made in the U.S. &#8220;where practicable.&#8221;
Customers who received pre-approval for Tesla products before March 12 will still be eligible for their rebates.

Why It Matters: The decision comes after U.S. President Donald Trump imposed a 25% tariff on Canadian goods and a 10% tariff on Canadian energy on March 4. The surtax was temporarily suspended on March 6 for goods that comply with the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement but is anticipated to be reinstated on April 2.
Tesla is encountering consumer backlash in the U.S. over CEO Elon Musk&#8216;s close ties to President Trump. Musk had also described Canada as "not a real country"&nbsp;in a post on X which he later deleted. There was also a widespread call for revoking the Tesla CEO&#8217;s Canadian citizenship.
Not just, British Columbia, but, the province of Ontario had previously terminated a C$100 million ($69.28 million) contract with Musk's Starlink, while the city of Toronto left Tesla out of its driver incentive program.
This development comes on the heels of allegations against Tesla for manipulating the EV rebate program in Canada. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44213295/tesla-suspected-of-ev-rebate-manipulation-in-canada-amid-sudden-sales-surge-tesla-gamed-the-system-says-industry-body">Four Canadian Tesla stores</a> were suspected of exploiting the country's EV rebate program by selling an average of 30 cars per hour over three days, claiming over 50% of the rebate funds.
Tesla holds a momentum rating of 83.63% and a growth rating of 55.20%, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/report/TSLA" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga's Proprietary Edge Rankings</a>.

Tesla Charging Stations Cut From Rebate Program By Canadian Province: 'Most People Would Support Their Removal' From Subsidy List, Says Minister

Major U.S. indices experienced turbulent sessions on Thursday, with the S&amp;P 500 <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44317410/sp-500-enters-technical-correction-as-trade-war-fears-rattle-markets">entering technical correction territory</a>. The index fell 10% from its all-time high, rattled by escalating trade tensions and the latest tariff threats from President Donald Trump. Despite recent inflation data painting a more optimistic picture for the U.S. economy, investors remain focused on trade policy risks, worrying that escalating tariffs could undermine corporate earnings and disrupt supply chains.
The S&amp;P 500 index fell by nearly 1.4%, closing at 5,521.52, while the Nasdaq dropped almost 2%, finishing at 17,303.02. The Dow Jones Industrial Average also ended Thursday down 1.3%, at 40,813.57.

Top Wall Street Forecasters Revamp Gogo Price Expectations Ahead Of Q4 Earnings

On Thursday, Cathie Wood&#8216;s Ark Invest made significant trades, focusing on acquiring shares in Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>), Coinbase Global Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>), and Tempus AI Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEM#NASDAQ">TEM</a>). These transactions come amid a volatile market environment, particularly affecting cryptocurrency-related stocks.
The Robinhood Trade saw Ark Invest&#8217;s ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>) fund purchasing 143,855 shares of Robinhood. The stock closed at $36.02, resulting in a total investment of approximately $5.18 million. This move aligns with recent market trends, where Robinhood, alongside other crypto-related stocks, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44225814/bitcoins-drop-shakes-crypto-stocks-coin-hood-mara-riot-dip-but-are-traders-seeing-a-bargain">faced pressure</a> due to Bitcoin&#8217;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) decline below $80,000.

The Coinbase Trade involved Ark Invest&#8217;s ARKK fund acquiring 29,353 shares of Coinbase. With a closing price of $177.49, the investment totaled around $5.21 million. Coinbase has been under scrutiny following its exclusion from the S&amp;P 500 and the broader cryptocurrency market&#8217;s downturn. However, analysts like Chris Brendler from Rosenblatt have <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44194807/coinbase-analyst-sees-crypto-spring-ahead-calls-recent-pullback-a-buying-opportunity">maintained a positive outlook</a>, suggesting the recent pullback presents a buying opportunity.
The Tempus AI Trade featured Ark Invest&#8217;s ARKK fund buying 30,119 shares of Tempus AI Inc. The shares closed at $42.16, amounting to an investment of approximately $1.23 million. This purchase follows Ark&#8217;s <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">previous $1.36 million</a> investment in Tempus AI on Wednesday.

Spirit Aviation Holdings, Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAVEQ#OTC">SAVEQ</a>), the parent company of Spirit Airlines, LLC (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAVEQ#OTC">SAVEQ</a>) announced that it has successfully completed its financial restructuring.
What Happened: The&nbsp;United States Bankruptcy Court for&nbsp;the Southern District of New&nbsp;York has confirmed Spirit&#8217;s Plan of Reorganization, with a supermajority of the company&#8217;s loyalty and convertible noteholders offering immense support, stated the company via press release. The restructuring process allowed the company to reduce its funded debt by nearly $795 million, leaving Spirit in a robust financial position. The company also secured&nbsp;a $350 million equity investment&nbsp;from current investors, aimed at supporting future initiatives and enhancing guest experiences. 
Upon emergence, the common stock previously issued by Spirit Airlines, Inc. was canceled. The company said that it &#8220;expects to re-list its shares on a stock exchange as soon as reasonably practicable&#8221; after the Effective Date of its Plan of Reorganization.
President and CEO Ted Christie stated, &#8220;Today, we&#8217;re moving forward with our strategy to redefine low-fare travel with our new, high-value travel options.&#8221;

Why It Matters: This development comes after Spirit Airlines <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/02/43654635/spirit-airlines-rejects-frontiers-new-merger-offer-aims-to-finalize-restructuring-by-q1-2025">rejected a merger</a> offer from&nbsp;Frontier Group Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ULCC#NASDAQ">ULCC</a>)&nbsp;earlier in February 2025. Frontier had proposed a revised restructuring plan, offering Spirit&#8217;s stakeholders $400 million in second-lien debt and 19% of Frontier&#8217;s common equity. This would have eliminated the need for Spirit&#8217;s $350 million equity rights offering but required a waiver of a $35 million termination fee. 
The rejection of this offer indicated Spirit&#8217;s confidence in its own restructuring plan, which it has now successfully implemented. The company&#8217;s decision to deleverage debt and secure equity investment underscores its commitment to financial stability and enhanced passenger services. The successful restructuring also paves the way for Spirit&#8217;s potential re-listing on a stock exchange, marking a significant turnaround for the airline. 
Price Action: Spirit Airlines OTC stock ended Thursday 2.6% higher at $0.47, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Spirit Airlines Soars Out of Bankruptcy, Says Will Cancel Old Stock And Expects To Re-List 'As Soon As Reasonably Practicable'

Donald Tang, the Executive Chair of Chinese fast-fashion retailer Shein, assured that the company is preparing for a London listing while dismissing concerns about the company&#8217;s valuation.
What Happened: Shein initially planned a New York listing for late 2023 but redirected its focus to the U.K. after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rejected its proposal. The fast-fashion retailer has decided to go ahead with the listing despite U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to eliminate the &#8220;de minimis&#8221; duty-free exemption for Chinese imports valued under $800. Tang stated that the company "has always had a globalized model, so we've already started to do global diversification", as reported by the <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/b0f841c8-2944-4ea6-88dc-651e46cda336">Financial Times</a>.
Shein&#8217;s valuation stood at $66 billion during its latest funding round in 2023. However, some stakeholders have been pushing for a reduction in the valuation to around $30 billion, a move that could expedite its&nbsp;IPO in the first half&nbsp;of this year.
Tang revealed that none of the existing investors, including Sequoia China (now HongShan), General Atlantic,&nbsp;and Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth&nbsp;fund Mubadala, have expressed concerns about Shein&#8217;s valuation in the lead-up to its planned IPO.
Although the company&#8217;s valuation is considerably lower, its flotation would still be among the largest on the London market this decade, as per the FT. 
Tang&nbsp;confirmed that there have been &#8220;zero conversations&#8221; about reducing its valuation among Shein&#8217;s management. &#8220;When&nbsp;we are actually going public,&nbsp;there will be that question&nbsp;[about valuation], but we&#8217;re&nbsp;not going public right now,&#8221; he stated.

Why It Matters: Tang&#8217;s comments come in as Shein faces stiff&nbsp;competition from rival group Temu&nbsp;and uncertainty over the future&nbsp;of a key exemption to&nbsp;U.S. import duties. Additionally, sources informed the FT that the company&#8217;s net profit declined by 40% to $1 billion in 2024. However, Tang asserts that investors are &#8220;very happy&#8221; as the company continues to expand successfully and profitably on a large scale while enhancing efficiency and minimizing waste.
Furthermore, Shein, along with Amazon and Temu, is under <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43431559/amazon-temu-and-shein-under-eu-scrutiny-regulators-target-illegal-products-and-tougher-e-commerce-rules">regulatory scrutiny</a> from the EU for allegedly selling dangerous or illegal products online. This could potentially impact the company&#8217;s performance and reputation, making its upcoming listing a significant event to watch.

Shein CEO Says 'Zero Conversations' About Slashing $66B Valuation Ahead Of IPO, Backers Unfazed Amid Trump Tariff Woes

On Thursday, prominent cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez shared insights on Bitcoin&#8217;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) potential price movements. 
What Happened: The analyst urged his followers to monitor the $74,000 level closely. Sharing a weekly Bitcoin-Tether (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">USDT</a>) chart, he noted that losing this key support could indicate a &#8220;potential trend shift.&#8221; He noted that such a shift would be the first one since January 2023.
A sell signal occurred during the bearish trend in 2022, while a buy signal marked the start of a strong uptrend in early 2023, according to the shared chart.
Between January 2023 and now, Bitcoin has surged from $16,625.08 to over $80,000, marking a nearly 390% gain during this period.

Why It Matters: The current landscape for Bitcoin is marked by significant developments and varied perspectives. Recently, President Donald Trump announced a <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/03/44184474/trump-announced-strategic-bitcoin-reserve-to-allow-buying-additional-btc-peter-schiff-doesnt-think-so-but-heres-what-the-order-says">Strategic Bitcoin Reserve</a>, which, while initially seen as bullish, ultimately disappointed investors due to its reliance on seized assets rather than new purchases.This move reflects a shift in government attitudes toward digital assets, though its impact on Bitcoin&#8217;s price has been mixed. Additionally, regulatory clarity has been a focus, with the SEC providing relief by closing non-fraud investigations and clarifying its <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/02/44032560/memecoins-like-trump-dogecoin-pepe-not-securities-says-the-sec-but-fraud-related-to-offer-and-sale-subject-to-enforcement">stance on memecoins</a>. 
Meanwhile, Bitcoin&#8217;s price has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/03/44212362/bitcoin-ethereum-and-dogecoin-crash-as-trump-refuses-to-rule-out-recession-arthur-hayes-predicts-btc-to-retest-78000">experienced volatility</a>, dropping from an all-time high in January 2025 to recent lows below the psychologically important $80,000 level, influenced by macroeconomic factors and market sentiment. 
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down 2.6%, trading at $81,351, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Bitcoin's Two-Year Bull Run At Risk? Analyst Says Chart Hints At 'Potential Trend Shift' — Asks Followers To Watch This Level Closely

Sen. Chuck Schumer (N.Y.), the Senate Democratic Leader, expressed concerns about a potential government shutdown on Thursday. He warned that such an event could empower Donald Trump significantly. 
What Happened: Schumer&#8217;s remarks come amid heightened tensions in Congress over federal funding, with Democrats and Republicans blaming each other for the impasse. Schumer specifically mentioned Elon Musk, suggesting that the entrepreneur supports a shutdown and is planning to leverage it to dismantle essential government programs.
Schumer&#8217;s post on X highlighted the stakes involved, stating, &#8220;A shutdown would give Donald Trump the keys to the city, state, and country.&#8221; He accused Musk of wanting a shutdown to &#8220;expedite the destruction of key government programs and services.&#8221;

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">A shutdown would give Donald Trump the keys to the city, state, and country. Musk has said he wants a shutdown, and reporting has shown he is already making plans to use the shutdown to expedite his destruction of key government programs and services.
&mdash; Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) <a href="https://twitter.com/SenSchumer/status/1900339650562011205?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 14, 2025</a></blockquote>

The tweet was part of the ongoing debate in Congress, where Schumer and other leaders are pushing for a &#8220;clean 30-day CR&#8221; to avoid a shutdown. This situation has escalated as the deadline looms, with both parties intensifying their rhetoric.
Schumer announced he will support advancing a House-passed six-month government funding bill, despite opposition from many Democrats who call it a "slush fund" for Trump and Musk. He argued that while the bill is flawed, failing to pass it could lead to a government shutdown with severe consequences for veterans, seniors, and disabled individuals, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5194156-schumer-gop-funding-bill-shutdown/">reported</a> The Hill.
Schumer is the second Senate Democrat to back advancing the GOP bill, likely giving cover to others still reviewing it. Senate Republicans, holding 53 seats, need eight Democratic votes to advance the GOP-drafted resolution, which boosts defense spending by $6 billion while cutting non-defense programs by $13 billion. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) opposes it, citing insufficient deficit reduction.

Why It Matters: The potential government shutdown has significant implications for the nation. Schumer&#8217;s warning about Trump&#8217;s influence highlights the broader political stakes. As reported, Schumer has blamed the GOP for taking a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44294067/chuck-schumer-blames-gop-for-partisan-path-as-shutdown-nears-republicans-say-democrats-fault-if-government-closes">&#8220;partisan path&#8221;</a> in the funding debate, while Republicans argue that Democrats would be at fault if a shutdown occurs. The standoff reflects deep divisions in Congress, with both parties holding firm on their positions.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has also criticized Republicans, emphasizing the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44293219/aoc-claps-back-at-mike-johnson-as-senate-moves-closer-to-government-shutdown-if-you-need-democrats-then-you-need-to-negotiate">need for negotiation</a> if they lack the votes to pass their funding bill.

Chuck Schumer Says A Government Shutdown Will Give Trump The 'Keys To The City, State and Country' And Elon Musk The Chance To Destroy Government Services

&#8220;When do you keep a stock? When do you sell it, and when do you add to it?&#8221; That's the question <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43737751/suze-orman-weighs-in-on-trumps-tariffs-says-the-real-problem-is-28000-florida-home-insurance-what-are-you-going-to-do-about-that">Suze Orman</a> recently posed on her "Women &amp; Money" podcast — and it's one that many investors struggle with, especially during market volatility. Investing in the stock market can be intimidating, and when prices start to drop, it's easy to panic and make emotional decisions. But Orman advises that reacting out of fear is often a mistake.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Fear Can Be Dangerous for Investors</h2>
&#8220;The main internal obstacle to wealth is fear,&#8221; Orman said. &#8220;Fear, everybody, just that simple.&#8221; She pointed out that fear is pervasive right now, driven by economic uncertainty, rising costs, and geopolitical tensions.

<li>Dogecoin millionaires are increasing –<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/dogecoin-millionaires"> investors with $1M+ in DOGE revealed!</a></li>
</ul>
This fear can lead to knee-jerk reactions in the stock market. Orman explained that when investors panic and sell off stock, it can drive prices down further. Orman used Palantir as an example. In the last month, it has dropped from about $125 a share to below $80 a share.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&#8220;You feel good for a while, cause maybe you sold <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44212796/palantir-joins-sp-100-after-ai-driven-rally-stock-surges-almost-60-since-trump-victory">Palantir</a> at 95, and now here it&#8217;s at 85 and you feel like such a winner. Are you kidding me?&#8221; she said, adding that short-term gains from selling out of fear can result in missed long-term growth opportunities.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">When to Keep a Stock</h2>
Orman advises that if a stock has strong fundamentals — good management, a solid product, and future growth potential — you should hold onto it even if the market dips. She reminded listeners about the market downturn in 2022 when major tech stocks like Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia performed poorly. &#8220;They were referred to as the Stinky 7 because of how badly they had gone down,&#8221; Orman said.
But those who stayed invested saw significant returns. Nvidia, for example, rebounded with a 240% gain in 2023. Orman reminded listeners that those who bought stock at much lower prices were still sitting on significant gains. And even if they didn't, if the stock is fundamentally strong, it&#8217;s better to stay invested rather than react impulsively to market swings.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">When to Sell a Stock</h2>
While holding onto <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stocks-for-long-term-investment">strong stocks</a> can lead to long-term gains, there are times when selling makes sense. Orman advised selling if a stock's value becomes too large a portion of your overall portfolio. This helps to reduce the risk of losing too much if the stock suddenly drops.
She explained that selling can also be a smart move if you need the funds for other investments or financial goals. However, Orman warned against selling just because the stock has gone up or down temporarily. Taking profits too soon can lead to missed opportunities if the stock rebounds.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">When to Add to a Stock</h2>
Orman supports adding to a stock position when you have the funds to do so strategically — through <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43759719/suze-school-lump-sum-investing-dollar-cost-averaging-and-value-cost-average-which-is-her-favorite">dollar-cost averaging</a>. This means investing smaller amounts consistently over time, which reduces the risk of buying at a peak. &#8220;You have another $300 that you can put into Palantir totally. So all right, put $50 at a time in it so that you have at least six more times that you can buy the stock if it continues to go down,&#8221; she advised.
See Also: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
Orman shared her own strategy with Palantir. She mentioned how she bought more shares when the price dropped from $113 to $98 and again when it hit $85. She said this approach lowers the average cost per share over time and allows for greater potential gains when the stock eventually rises. However, she also cautioned that this strategy works best for those who have the funds to continue buying as the price drops.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bottom Line</h2>
Orman's advice boils down to staying calm and focused on long-term growth rather than reacting to market fear. Keeping, selling, or adding to a stock should be based on the strength of the company and your overall financial strategy — not panic over market swings.

Billionaire Elon Musk has become a central figure in President Donald Trump's White House administration playing a role in the Department of Government Efficiency, a move that could impact the Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/03/44235956/tesla-bloodbath-to-continue-hedge-funder-says-musk-circus-could-lead-to-stock-dropping-95">stock price.</a>
A new poll of voters finds minimal approval of the billionaire's role.
What Happened: Musk recently said it was hard <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44242181/elon-musk-admits-juggling-between-tesla-doge-is-difficult-says-running-businesses-with-great-difficulty-a">juggling his responsibilities </a>between his companies, including Tesla and SpaceX, along with his government work.
A new CNN/SSRS <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/12/politics/cnn-poll-trump-economy/index.html">poll </a>found that Musk's work within the government may not be going over as well as the billionaire believes.
Musk scores an approval rating of 35% with a disapproval rating of 53% in the new poll shared Wednesday. Eleven percent of voters have no opinion on the billionaire in the poll.
For comparison, Trump scored an overall approval rating of 45% with a disapproval rating of 54%, similar to Musk. Trump's approval rating was down from 48% in a February CNN poll.
Vice President J.D. Vance has a favorable rating of 33% in the poll with an unfavorable rating of 44%. A higher number of voters had no opinion on Vance with 23% choosing this option.
In the new poll, 62% of voters said Musk does not have the "right experience" to make changes to the government while 61% said Musk does not have the "right judgment' to make changes.
Even some of Trump's supporters question the moves Musk is making with 28% of voters who see Trump's changes to the government necessary doubt Musk's judgment to make changes.
Sixty-two percent of voters in the poll say cuts being made by Trump and Musk are going too far.
Likely not a surprise, the poll results are split by political party with 90% of Republicans concerned about losing important federal programs. Seventy-three percent of Republicans say they are more concerned with fraud and waste than losing federal programs. Sixty-nine percent of Independents say they are more concerned about losing important federal programs.
The poll was conducted March 6 through March 9 and included the results from 1,206 adults. By political party, the poll was made up of 29% Democrats, 30% Republicans and 41% Independents.

Why It's Important: Polls on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/02/43880789/elon-musk-approval-rating-hits-41-voters-not-impressed-with-doge-work-and-calls-to-eliminate-departments">approval ratings for Musk</a> have become more frequent with his push into politics.
A February Emerson College poll of voters asked for approval ratings about how well Musk was doing at the Department of Government Efficiency. In that poll, Musk had a 41% approval rating, with 45% disapproving and 14% neutral.
In that poll, Musk had a lower approval rating than Trump at 48% and a higher disapproval rating at 42%.
That poll showed voters had minimal support for DOGE and the Trump administration's plans to eliminate the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Department of Education.
The big question from the approval polls on Musk will be how they translate to the companies he runs.
Tesla&nbsp;took a hit to its brand value in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/43172806/tesla-lost-15-billion-in-brand-value-in-2024-report-says-did-elon-musks-political-push-hurt-ev-giant">Brand Finance survey </a>in 2024. The company lost $15 billion in brand value and dropped 18 places in the rankings to 36.
The electric vehicle company has been the subject of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/43251316/tesla-faces-boycott-call-in-poland-over-musks-wwii-comments" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">calls for boycotts&nbsp;</a>in European nations due to Musk&#8217;s political beliefs.

Musk&#8217;s approval rating as a CEO and as a politician are likely two different things, but for investors and Tesla shareholders, the hope is that they can stay separate and not translate to overall disapproval of Musk as a person and leader.
TSLA Price Action: Tesla stock closed Thursday down 2.99% to $240.68 versus a 52-week trading range of $138.80 to $488.54. Tesla stock is down 36.5% year-to-date in 2025

COHR

$1000 Invested In This Stock 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Shaquille O'Neal didn't build a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42818956/nba-legend-shaq-says-he-wont-care-if-he-loses-every-dime-of-his-500-million-net-worth-i-dont-even-work-for-money-i-work-for-fun">$500 million fortune</a> by handing out free money, and he's making sure his kids don't expect one, either. The four-time NBA champion turned business mogul believes in "respectable nepotism"—a system where <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44220332/shaq-warns-that-giving-kids-everything-from-the-start-can-backfire-they-aint-in-a-good-place">his children don't get a dime</a> unless they prove they deserve it.
No trust fund freebies. No blank checks. Just business proposals, due diligence, and a solid plan—because in Shaq's world, you don't just ask for money; you earn it.

"If you want money, you better have a business plan," Shaq told <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/shaq-kids-respectable-nepotism-nepo-baby-money-2023-8">Business Insider in 2023</a>. "You want me to be the bank? I'm gonna do exactly what the bank does."
According to the man who famously tells his kids, "We ain't rich, I'm rich," getting money from him isn't as simple as asking. If they want funding, they need to come with a pitch, revenue projections, and a solid plan—because "Dad" isn't handing over his hard-earned cash.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Shaq's Kids Are Learning the Hard Way</h2>
As of March, Shaq's six kids range from 18 to 28 years old, and while some have already put in the work, others are still figuring it out.
At 27, Myles wanted to be a DJ. Instead of just handing him money, Shaq made him present a business plan, just like he would with any investment. Once Myles proved he was serious, Shaq helped him get the necessary equipment—but from there, Myles built his own career. Now, he's headlining shows across the U.S., touring, and even held a residency at Wynn Las Vegas.

Shaq's eldest daughter, Taahirah, 28, skipped the entertainment industry and built a corporate career, while Shareef, 25, pursued basketball, playing for UCLA, LSU, and now the NBA G League.
Then there's Amirah, 23, and Me'arah,18—still in school and yet to pitch a big idea, but Shaq has a different plan for them. He explains he wants his daughter to attend law school.&nbsp;
He's always emphasized education, telling Logan Paul in a 2022 podcast that his motto for his kids is, "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/41869301/shaqs-got-a-500-million-fortune-but-his-kids-arent-getting-a-dime-without-earning-it-you-need-3-degrees-to-touch-daddys-cheese">In order to touch daddy's cheese, you gotta have three degrees</a>."

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Lesson from Jeff Bezos</h2>
Shaq didn't always think this way. His investment mindset changed after listening to Jeff Bezos, who once said that he only invests in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44068159/nba-legend-shaq-says-his-net-worth-quadrupled-once-he-took-note-from-jeff-bezos-and-started-investing-in-things-that-change-peoples-lives">businesses that will change people's lives</a>. Shaq took that advice and ran with it—shifting from short-term deals to long-term, high-impact investments.
"I heard Jeff Bezos say one time [that] he makes his investments based on if it's going to change people's lives," Shaq told <a href="https://www.wsj.com/video/shaquille-oneal-discusses-investing-franchising-and-donuts/8063A172-ABFF-496B-8700-4D51A6234054">The Wall Street Journal</a> in 2019. That shift quadrupled his net worth, and now, he's applying the same thinking to his kids—if they want an investment, they need to show impact.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">No Free Rides in the O'Neal Household</h2>
Unlike many celebrity kids who inherit millions without lifting a finger, Shaq's children are learning real-world economics the hard way.
They're free to pursue DJing, corporate careers, basketball, or even law school—but they're not getting a check just for showing up.
And if they think they can just ask for money and skip the business plan?
They better get used to hearing "Next!"
