(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENFN#NYSE">ENFN</a>), a leader in software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions for the investment management and hedge fund sectors, in a deal valued at approximately $1.5 billion.
This strategic combination positions Clearwater as the industry's first single-instance, multi-tenant, cloud-native platform to unify front, middle, and back-office investment operations. By integrating portfolio and order management, IBOR, risk, accounting, and client reporting into one seamless solution, Clearwater is replacing the fragmented legacy model with a modern platform that empowers faster decision-making and operational clarity across asset classes and geographies.
"The close of the Enfusion acquisition marks a major milestone—not just for Clearwater, but for the entire investment management industry," said Sandeep Sahai, Chief Executive Officer of Clearwater Analytics. "By combining Enfusion's strong front-office capabilities with our established middle and back-office solutions, we are accelerating our journey towards a fully integrated, cloud-native front-to-back investment management platform. This combination will eliminate costly data handoffs and inefficiencies stemming from fragmented workflows, empowering our clients to make faster, data-driven decisions with complete confidence in their data."
"I'm immensely proud of what the Enfusion team has achieved and the shareholder value we delivered. Enfusion's focus on innovation and client requirements created a world-class disruptive technology platform, fundamentally changing how our clients execute their operational workflows, implement investment strategies, manage portfolios, and optimize data insights," said Oleg Movchan, former CEO of Enfusion. "By joining forces with Clearwater, we're opening up amazing possibilities for the next wave of innovation in investment technology. I couldn't be more optimistic about how this combination will benefit our clients and transform the industry."
Today's institutional investors—asset managers, insurers, pensions, endowments, and sovereign funds—face increasing complexity across portfolios, geographies, and asset classes. Many still rely on outdated systems that silo data and delay insight. The expanded Clearwater platform will address these challenges by offering:
<ul>
<li>Seamless integration across front, middle, and back-office workflows</li>
<li>A single security master and data model for consistent, real-time views of positions, performance, and risk</li>
<li>An open architecture that connects to a growing ecosystem of partners and capabilities</li>
</ul>
"Enfusion adds proven front-office depth to the Clearwater platform, giving our clients real-time access to portfolio and order management, IBOR, risk, and reporting—all in one system," said Neal Pawar, President, Head of Asset Management at Clearwater Analytics and former Chief Operating Officer at Enfusion. "The operational benefits are immediate: no batch processing, no manual reconciliation, and no duplication of data. Clients now have a shared, live view of their portfolios and operations—enabling faster execution, stronger risk oversight, and a platform that evolves with them. This is the new foundation for institutional investment technology and operations."
Clearwater's growth in asset management—its largest market segment—is expected to accelerate, with Enfusion's strength in the hedge fund space and the ability to integrate Enfusion's front office capabilities with Clearwater's middle and back office. This will result in a meaningful expansion of Clearwater's Total Addressable Market.
The acquisition also significantly expands Clearwater's international presence. Enfusion generates 38% of its revenue from Europe and Asia, supported by strong teams in London, Mumbai, Bangalore, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Clearwater will now serve clients from key global hubs including Boise, New York, Edinburgh, and New Delhi, providing localized support and delivery at scale.

Medpace Sees FY25 EPS $12.26-$13.04 Vs $12.27 Est.; Revenue $2.14B-$2.24B Vs $2.149B Est.

Two prominent Fed voiced issued strong public defenses of the central bank&#8217;s independence on Monday, calling out President Donald Trump&#8216;s attacks on Chair Jerome Powell as politically <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/jerome-powell">dangerous and economically destabilizing.</a>
Speaking Monday on CNBC, Richard Fisher, former president of the Dallas Fed, warned that Trump's repeated attacks on Powell could inflict serious long-term damage on the credibility of the Federal Reserve and the broader U.S. economy.
"The one thing you don't want to have happen is for the Fed to become politicized," Fisher said.
Fisher added that even if Trump could fire Powell, which remains legally uncertain, it would be a self-defeating move.
"I don't think it's in the president's interest to sack him. The markets would react extremely negatively," he said.
Fisher also highlighted that current uncertainty has already paralyzed corporate decision-making, referencing companies like United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>), which recently offered dual earnings forecasts due to macroeconomic unpredictability.
"I think the president, frankly, is undermining his own case." "No business can make a decision here," Fisher said. "That uncertainty has been generated by the executive branch."
When asked whether Trump could legally demote or remove Powell, Fisher pointed to historical precedent—most notably in 1979, when President Jimmy Carter reassigned then-Fed Chair G. William Miller to Treasury Secretary after a period of poor economic performance and appointed Paul Volcker in his place. 
"I hope it doesn't come to push and shove," he said. "If it does, we're going to see further spread widening, higher interest rates and pressure that damages long-term confidence in the economy."
Fisher also pushed back on the assumption that Fed rate cuts would lower market interest rates, pointing out that recent episodes of easing were followed by yield spikes in longer-term bonds.
"After they cut 50 basis points and then did three more cuts, yields went up—not down. The 10-year rose by 100 basis points," Fisher said. "So even if you force cuts, the market may not respond how you think."
Ultimately, Fisher painted a picture of a market hamstrung by political volatility and a Fed cornered by noise from the White House.
&#8220;Forget about the stock market, the FED will always act if the credit markets become dysfunctional.&#8221;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Goolsbee: Interference Means &#8216;Higher Inflation, Worse Growth&#8217;</h3>
Echoing Fisher's concerns, Austan Goolsbee, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, said earlier on <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/21/chicago-feds-goolsbee-says-fed-independence-is-critically-important-for-its-inflation-fight.html">CNBC's Squawk Box</a> that interfering with the Fed's independence would erode the institution's credibility and lead to long-term economic pain.
"Fed independence is critically important," Goolsbee said. "When there is interference over the long run, it's going to mean higher inflation, worse growth and higher unemployment."
Although Goolsbee declined to comment directly on Trump's statements, his message was clear: monetary credibility depends on political neutrality, especially when inflation-fighting resolve is needed.
"Just look at the countries where they don't have Fed independence. Inflation is higher, unemployment is higher, growth is worse," he added.
U.S. financial markets came under heavy pressure Monday, with stocks, bonds and the dollar falling in unison, a rare and unsettling signal of deepening investor distrust.
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>), slid to its lowest level since April 2022.
The S&amp;P 500, mirrored by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), sank 3.3% in one of its steepest single-day drops of the year.

Broadcom, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) stock traded lower on Monday after Huawei announced it was preparing a new artificial intelligence (AI) chip as an alternative <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/44906106/whats-going-on-with-nvidia-stock-monday-2">to Nvidia&#8217;s H20 line.</a>
The Details: Broadcom, along with the broader semiconductor industry, is moved lower Monday following Huawei&#8217;s announcement. Huawei&nbsp;intends to start delivering its advanced 910C AI chip to customers in China as early as next month, according to Reuters.
The chip matches the performance of Nvidia's H100 by combining two 910B processors into a single unit using advanced integration techniques. President Donald Trump's administration <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44828742/nvidia-stock-is-tumbling-after-hours-heres-why">recently implemented licensing</a> requirements for selling Nvidia's H20 and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44900227/amd-stock-drops-amid-ai-chip-export-ban-whats-going-on">select AMD chips</a> to China.
Broadcom shares may be trading lower as investors evaluate the competitive risk from Huawei and its potential impact on Broadcom's presence in the Chinese market. Ongoing concerns about tariffs and trade restrictions may also be weighing on sentiment across the chip sector.

Boeing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) shares are trading lower Monday after Benchmark lowered its price target on the stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/44896693/boeing-secures-new-stocks-of-crucial-nuts-and-bolts-used-in-737-max-production-amid-chinas-import-ban-report">from $250 to $215.</a>
What To Know: The firm still maintains a Buy rating, but the reduction reflects growing concern over Boeing's ongoing production issues and a challenging operating environment.
According to Benchmark's first-quarter 2025 preview, Boeing is facing multiple short-term disruptions, including persistent supply chain problems, regulatory uncertainties and tariff-related complexity. A fire at a major fastener supplier and issues with GE engines have only worsened delays, making it difficult for the company to meet delivery expectations.
The report emphasizes that Boeing is still producing below long-term demand levels, suggesting the real issue isn't demand but rather the company's inability to ramp up supply. Analysts highlighted that while the long-term fundamentals remain intact — especially the duopoly with Airbus — the path to recovery is taking longer than previously expected. Ongoing complications, such as FAA hurdles and internal production setbacks, continue to weigh on investor sentiment.
Despite the challenges, Benchmark remains positive on Boeing&#8217;s long-term free cash flow trajectory, though it now sees slower momentum in the near term. The firm lowered its price target accordingly to reflect the new timeline for improvement, cutting it by $35. 
BA Price Action: Boeing shares were down 1.58% at $159.34 at the time of publication Monday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

President Donald Trump&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44896834/dollar-hits-3-year-lows-us-stocks-tumble-as-trump-threatens-to-fire-powell-contrarians-of-the-world-unite">mounting fierce criticism</a> against Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is unnerving the marker and taking down tech juggernaut Alphabet Inc (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>). 
Still, there may be a chance to extract quick profits for bold and opportunistic traders.
To be clear, no one should dismiss the anxiety surrounding the latest market rumblings. In a Truth Social post, Trump previously signaled discouraging intentions for the Fed chair. 
"Jerome Powell is always too late and wrong. His termination cannot come fast enough,&#8221; Trump said.
Trump initially nominated Powell in 2017. President Joe Biden appointed Powell to another four-year term in 2022. U.S. presidents do not have the legal authority to fire a Fed chairman before the end of a term, which for Powell is May 2026.
At the heart of the matter is the benchmark interest rate, with Trump blasting Powell for not cutting borrowing costs despite falling oil prices and easing inflation concerns. The president further <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44875406/hell-be-out-if-i-ask-him-can-trumps-threat-to-oust-powell-shake-the-fed">stoked the flames of discontent</a>, remarking during a public appearance with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni that he could remove Powell "real fast" if he so wished.
Of course, the political drama only underscores a far more pressing concern: the White House's economic policies — particularly related to tariffs against key economic partners — threatens to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44899617/90-chance-of-recession-due-to-trumps-tariffs-sharp-slowdown-is-coming-economist-says">sink the nation into a recession</a>, potentially sometime this year. For a company like Alphabet, which depends heavily on advertising revenue, a downturn would be problematic; hence, the volatility in Alphabet&#8217;s stock.
Despite the wide-ranging concerns, management has a chance to frame the narrative properly with the company's Thursday after-close <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GOOG/earnings">earnings disclosure</a>. One area that may convince investors to take a stab at Alphabet stock is the broader integration of artificial intelligence. By embedding AI across products to reduce costs and improve engagement, along with generative AI monetization efforts within the Search platform, the tech giant may help right its own ship.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Winners Like Alphabet Don't Stay Deflated for Too Long</h2>
Trump perceives tariffs as key to winning trade deals and often discussed the strategy on the campaign trail. And that's the main takeaway for Alphabet from a stock trading perspective: it's a winner and winners don't stay deflated for too long.
However, with headline metrics such as a year-to-date loss of 22%, it's easy for pessimism to cloud the discourse. Part of the reason for this tendency has to do with the way traditional analyses — whether technical or even fundamental — are structured. Specifically, standard methodologies rely on continuous-time signal processing frameworks. That's a complicated way of saying that there's no such thing as a "good" stock price or "bad" revenue.
Instead, metrics like share price or revenue represent scalar realities: they are what they are. The problem, of course, is that many fall into the trap of interpreting a discrete outcome — for example, "it's a good time to buy" — from a continuous signal without defining what exactly is "good."
To get around this dilemma, investors can deploy a process called abstraction, essentially compressing continuous events into discrete events, thus generating a discrete-event analysis for discrete conclusions. Personally, I deployed a quasi-binary compression for the purposes of calculating a modified first-order Markov chain model on Alphabet stock.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/21151826/GOOG-stock-price-projection-1-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-880553" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/21151826/GOOG-stock-price-projection-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/21151826/GOOG-stock-price-projection-1-300x169.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/21151826/GOOG-stock-price-projection-1-768x432.jpg 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/21151826/GOOG-stock-price-projection-1.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image by author</figcaption></figure>
What I noted was that in the past two months, the shares have printed in totality (meaning not necessarily in order) a "2-8" sequence: two weeks up, eight weeks down. The 2-8 sequence is rare, flashing only four times in the past decade. What's significant in my opinion is that in three out of the four cases, Alphabet popped sharply higher within the first two weeks of the 2-8 signal flashing.
In any other circumstance, one would consider the above assessment statistically fragile. But price action tends to marshal human emotions, which may lend credibility to this potential upside pivot.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Plotting a Bullish Strategy for Alphabet</h2>
With the prospect of a bullish reversal on the horizon — and especially with an earnings report coming — bold traders may be enticed to consider an out-the-money (OTM) wager as opposed to a hedged bet. Every good quarterback knows when it's time to go deep and this might be such a moment.
At this moment, the cheapest vertical spread which in my view touches the boundaries of rationality is the 157.50/160 bull call spread for the options chain expiring May 2. This transaction involves buying the $157.50 call (at an ask of $265) and simultaneously selling the $160 call (at a bid of $193), resulting in a net debit paid of $72, the most that can be lost in the trade.
Should GOOG stock rise through the $160 short strike price at expiration, the maximum reward is $178, or a payout of over 247%.
It's a highly speculative, capped-risk, capped-reward setup. The justification for the trade is that in 75% of the time when the 2-8 sequence flashes, the median return (under the positive pathway) two weeks out is 13.15%. Coincidentally, the timing of the earnings release lends loose support to the speculation that something special could be cooking for Alphabet stock.
