Investor sentiment remained positive in the fourth quarter of 2024, driving strong institutional and private client activity supported by a constructive market backdrop that reflected an increase in investors' risk appetite following the results of the US presidential election.&nbsp;
Constructive market conditions have continued into the first quarter of 2025 sustained by the greater optimism regarding growth prospects in the US. However, investor behavior may be affected by the clouded macroeconomic outlook outside the US, increased uncertainties around global trade, inflation and central bank policies, as well as geopolitics, including the upcoming elections in Germany. We see the markets as remaining particularly sensitive to new developments, positive or negative, leading to potential spikes in volatility across all asset classes.&nbsp;
In the first quarter, we expect a low-to-mid single digit percentage sequential decline in net interest income (NII) in Global Wealth Management and around a 10% sequential decline in Personal &amp; Corporate Banking's NII, measured in Swiss francs. Higher asset levels are expected to support recurring fee income across our asset-gathering businesses. As we progress our integration plans, integration-related expenses are expected to be around USD 1.1bn and accretion of PPA effects to contribute around USD 0.5bn to the Group's total revenues.&nbsp;
We remain focused on supporting clients with advice and solutions and continue to execute on our priorities, investing in people, products, and capabilities to drive sustainable long-term value for our stakeholders while maintaining a balance sheet for all seasons.

UBS Forecasts Q1 Decline In Net Interest Income Amid Integration Costs And Strategic Investments

In response to the United States&#8217; unilateral decision to impose a 10% tariff on all Chinese goods, China has announced its intention to retaliate by imposing tariffs on certain US imports.
What Happened: The State Council Customs Tariff Commission announced on Tuesday that it will be imposing tariffs on certain US imports, effective from Feb. 10. The decision comes in response to the U.S. government&#8217;s decision to levy a 10% tariff on all Chinese goods.
According to the announcement, the tariffs will be as follows:
1. A 15% tariff on coal and liquefied natural gas (LNG).
2. A 10% tariff on crude oil, agricultural machinery, high-displacement vehicles, and pickup trucks.
3. Additional tariffs will be imposed on the listed U.S. imports, on top of the existing rates. The current tax exemption and reduction policies will remain unchanged, and the additional tariffs will not be subject to reduction.

The announcement was made according to the laws of the People&#8217;s Republic of China, including the Customs Law, the Foreign Trade Law, and international legal principles. The decision was approved by the State Council.
In a separate statement, officials from the Chinese Commerce Ministry and customs announced the implementation of export controls on items related to tungsten, tellurium, ruthenium, and molybdenum.
Why It Matters: The decision by China to impose tariffs on select US imports comes in response to the US government&#8217;s decision to levy a 10% tariff on all Chinese goods. This move is part of the ongoing trade tensions between the two economic powerhouses, which have been escalating in recent years.
President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China are predicted to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/02/43442219/why-beer-tequila-avocados-cars-iphone-prices-could-rise-trumps-tariffs-on-canada-mexico-china-to-hurt-several-sectors">impact several sectors</a> and potentially lead to retailers and companies raising prices on consumers to offset the higher prices.
Renowned economist and Obama-era Treasury Secretary, Lawrence Summers, criticized President Trump's recent tariff impositions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43425160/trump-tariffs-a-strategic-gift-to-xi-jinpings-china-says-obama-era-treasury-secretary-jobs-in-industrial-heartland-will-be-lost">describing them as a "bully strategy"</a> that could have far-reaching negative impacts.

Tyson Foods Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSN#NYSE">TSN</a>) reported better-than-expected first-quarter results, driven by robust performance in the chicken sales segment. This marks the company&#8217;s third consecutive quarter of annual growth across key metrics.
What Happened: The company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43432806/tyson-foods-posts-q1-earnings-protein-conscious-customers-drive-demand-ceo-calls-it-best-quarter-in-2-years">reported</a> earnings of $1.14 per share beating the Benzinga consensus <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSN/earnings">estimate</a> of $0.88 by 29.5% and sales of $13.62 billion, 1.21% above the estimated $13.46 billion for the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
"Our best quarterly performance in more than two years reflects improved execution across the business, including exceptional results in chicken," said president and CEO Donnie King.
The management during its earnings call highlighted that its diversified multi-protein portfolio delivered results, with chicken helping to offset the ongoing challenges in beef. Achieving the best adjusted operating income of any quarter over the past eight years in the chicken segment.
The company&#8217;s value-added products like Jimmy Dean griddle cakes and chicken biscuits gained traction as chicken also continued to be a &#8220;bright spot,&#8221; with sales increasing due to higher volumes in these foodservice channels, explained the company CFO Curt Calaway.
Calaway raised adjusted operating income guidance for the segment to $1 billion to $1.3 billion for fiscal 2025, given the chicken&#8217;s strong first-quarter performance.
Highlighting the concerns regarding the trade war with Mexico, King added &#8220;Mexico is a large trading partner for us. So, essentially, what we would do, whether it be pork or whether it would be chicken, is we would find other markets.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Despite strong growth in the Chicken segment in the first quarter, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on its website highlighted that H5 bird flu is widespread in wild birds globally, causing outbreaks in poultry and U.S. dairy cows, with recent human cases in U.S. farm workers. The public health risk remains low, but the CDC is closely monitoring the situation and people exposed to animals, using its flu surveillance systems.
CDC&#8217;s weekly scientific reports are on hold due to an "immediate pause" on communications by federal health agencies, ordered by Dorothy Fink, acting secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. CNN <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/01/30/health/bird-flu-mmwr-pause-trump-kff-partner/index.html">reported</a> that Fink&#8217;s memo, issued on President Donald Trump's first full day in office, requires any publication to be reviewed and approved by a presidential appointee. 
Price Action: Shares of Tyson Foods rose 2.21% to end Monday at $57.74 apiece. It fell by 0.24% in after-hours. The exchange-traded fund tracking Russell 2000, iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>) declined 1.17% to $223.83 on Monday.
The average price target among 17 analysts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSN/analyst-ratings">tracked by Benzinga</a> is $61.38 with a ‘sell' rating. The estimates range from $45 to $75 apiece. Recent ratings from Barclays, UBS, and Piper Sandler suggest a $65 target, implying a potential upside of 12.85%.

EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) had 203,221 vehicle registrations in California in 2024, nearly 12% lower than the year before, according to recent industry data.
What Happened: &#8220;Things aren't looking so golden for EV automaker Tesla in the Golden State. Tesla's dominance in the electric vehicle market continues to falter as the brand reported its fifth consecutive quarterly registration decline,&#8221; the California New Car Dealers Association (CNCDA)&nbsp; said in a statement. 
Tesla&#8217;s new registrations fell 7.8% in the fourth quarter and 11.6% in 2024. For the year, Tesla held a 52.5% share of the zero-emission vehicle market, down from the 60.1% share in 2023.
Tesla&#8217;s Model Y SUV, however, was the best-selling battery electric vehicle in the state last year with 128,923 registrations. The Model 3 sedan was the second best-selling BEV with 53,056 registrations. 
Why It Matters: Tesla&#8217;s fall in registrations in California is not inconsistent with its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43214246/researcher-expects-teslas-vehicle-deliveries-to-remain-flat-in-2025-contrary-to-musks-20-30-growth-prediction">overall performance last year</a>. 
The company reported a fall in vehicle deliveries for the first time in over a decade in 2024. Tesla reported global&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/42766117/tesla-stock-tumbles-on-q4-deliveries-whats-going-on" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">deliveries of 1.79 million</a>&nbsp;vehicles, down from full-year deliveries of 1.81 million in 2023, as the company attempted to ramp production of its refreshed Model 3 vehicle in a high interest rate environment. 
Tesla CEO Elon Musk&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41479388/elon-musk-says-tesla-spacex-manufactured-in-costly-california-just-because-he-lived-there-even-as-ri">affiliation with Republican President Donald Trump</a> also likely didn&#8217;t fare well with customers of the brand in the democratic state.

When asked about the rationale behind proposing such an idea, Van Straten argued that accumulating large amounts of Bitcoin would significantly push the prices up, causing a potential problem for U.S.-based entities who routinely purchase the asset.
&#8220;All the BTC that is owned within the US &#8211; MSTR, ETFs etf is the US BTC IMO. You want to shore it all up,&#8221; he added.

Why It Matters: Van Straten&#8217;s comments come in the wake of the Trump administration&#8217;s plans to monetize government-owned assets to generate economic value for the American people. The sovereign fund <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43447339/trump-announces-us-sovereign-wealth-fund-hints-at-tiktok-ownership">would hold a variety of "liquid assets" </a>and strategic holdings.
Speculations about the federal government&#8217;s investments in Bitcoin have soared since Trump took office. The president signed an executive order last month that will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43177482/trump-signs-executive-order-on-crypto-bitcoin-reserve-to-be-evaluated">evaluate the creation</a> of a "strategic national digital assets stockpile."
Michael Saylor-led MicroStrategy has been on a Bitcoin buying spree, with the company&#8217;s stockpile&nbsp;<a href="https://bitcointreasuries.net/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">growing&nbsp;</a>to 471,107 BTC, worth over $46.46 billion, as of this writing.
A key feature of this strategy is issuing convertible bonds at 0% interest to fund the purchases. However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42735744/pharma-bro-martin-shkreli-predicts-doom-for-michael-saylors-microstrategy-as-stock-dips-below-300-in-after-hours-trading">skeptics have been critical</a>, warning of potential liquidations if Bitcoin&#8217;s value declines drastically.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $98,768.54, up 5.43% in the last 24 hours, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
Shares of MicroStrategy closed 3.67% higher at $347.09 during Monday's regular session.
The stock has a consensus price target of $454.54 based on the ratings of 13 analysts, with an average price target of $605 between Bernstein and Mizuho.

U.S. tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China are rattling markets and stirring sharp reactions from economists. The measures, which include a 25% duty on most Canadian and Mexican goods and a 10% tariff on Chinese imports, have heightened concerns over supply chain disruptions and increased costs for American businesses and consumers.
What Happened: Mohamed El-Erian, Chief Economic Advisor at Allianz, highlighted market reactions on social media platform X. "Same outcome for Canada in terms of both the 30-day ‘pause' and the currency retracement," El-Erian wrote on Monday. 
His analysis, supported by a currency chart, showed the Canadian Dollar trading at 1.4421—a minor decline from previous levels following a volatile spike to 1.4791 on Monday. The chart's clear peak and subsequent correction suggest heightened market activity amid tariff-related news.
El-Erian's commentary extended to the Mexican Peso, which exhibited a dramatic surge to 21.2879 before retreating to 20.6045 over three days. The rapid fluctuations were observed on a chart amid news of a temporary tariff pause.

The pause comes after a call between Trump and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, who confirmed on X that Mexico would deploy 10,000 National Guard troops to its northern border as part of a <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43440692/us-mexico-agrees-on-one-month-tariffs-pause-stocks-rebound-peso-rallies">broader security and trade pact</a>.
Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers noted Canada&#8217;s importance as a trade partner. &#8220;Canada is our friend. Canada is an important market for American products. Canada is a crucial co-producer with American automobile companies that enable North America to compete with Asia and Europe,&#8221; he wrote, directly challenging the tariff approach.

Economist Justin Wolfers highlighted a post from former National Economic Council member Brendan Duke while using a &#8220;Sex and the City&#8221; metaphor to analyze trade tensions. 
Wolfers argued that transactional diplomacy alienates economic partners, echoing Duke's point that "the main accomplishment of Trump's fake almost trade war is that no business is going to make a huge capital investment assuming tariff-free North American trade, even after the USMCA renegotiation."

Mohamed El-Erian Flags Market Jitters As Trump Tariff Pause On Canada Triggers Currency Swings — Larry Summers Warns Of Trade Fallout

Palantir Technologies Inc.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) chief technology officer Shyam Sankar warned that the U.S. is in an "AI arms race" with China, calling for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43420511/palantir-ceo-alex-karp-sounds-alarm-on-chinas-deepseek-could-this-threaten-palantirs-ai-dominance">urgent action</a> to maintain dominance as the race for artificial intelligence escalates.
What Happened: During Palantir's <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43449486/palantir-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-us-revenue-up-52-customer-count-up-43-strong-guidance-this-is-a-new-phase-unlike-anything-that-has-come-before">fourth-quarter earnings</a> call, Sankar responded to a question about the impact of China's DeepSeek AI model on Palantir.&nbsp;
&#8220;One of the obvious lessons of DeepSeekR1 is something that we&#8217;ve been saying for the last two years, which is that the models are commoditizing,&#8221; Sankar said, underscoring that both closed and open-source AI models are becoming increasingly similar while inference costs are plummeting.

However, he argued that the bigger concern is not <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/01/43379565/deepseeks-ai-model-shook-wall-street-but-a-new-report-says-chinese-state-accounts-helped-fan-the-flames">just AI competition</a>, but an all-encompassing economic, diplomatic, and technological war with China.
&#8220;We are at war with China. We are in an AI arms race,&#8221; Sankar declared, noting that he had disagreed with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman at the Senate AI Summit over whether cooperation with China in AI development was viable.
He said now that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43354099/openai-alleges-deepseek-used-proprietary-models-without-permission-as-microsoft-investigates-ai-secu">OpenAI is accusing China</a> of stealing U.S. AI intellectual property, it should erase any illusions about a collaborative approach. &#8220;We have to wake up with the respect for our adversary and realize that we are competing.&#8221;
Sankar stated that the AI race is a &#8220;winner-take-all&#8221; competition, requiring a nationwide effort. &#8220;M day was yesterday,&#8221; he warned, stressing that the time to mobilize is now.

Why It Matters: Palantir posted fourth-quarter revenue of $827.52 million, surpassing the $775.91 million estimate. For the next quarter, it projects revenue between $858 million and $862 million, above the $799.35 million forecast.
Full-year 2025 revenue is expected to range from $3.74 billion to $3.76 billion, exceeding the $3.52 billion estimate.
Last month, DeepSeek&#8217;s AI model stirred significant attention on Wall Street, with Chinese state-affiliated accounts <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/01/43379565/deepseeks-ai-model-shook-wall-street-but-a-new-report-says-chinese-state-accounts-helped-fan-the-flames">reportedly amplifying</a> its launch. The U.S. is also investigating DeepSeek&#8217;s access to advanced Nvidia Corp's semiconductors, potentially violating an <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/01/43390988/deepseek-and-nvidia-under-us-investigation-ai-market-shakeup-wipes-out-1-trillion-in-tech-value">AI technology embargo</a>.
Price Movement: Palantir&#8217;s shares jumped 22.75% in after-hours trading to $102.79. Earlier on Monday, the stock closed at $83.74, up 1.52%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
