Wedbush Securities analyst Daniel Ives has placed his bets on cybersecurity as the &#8220;biggest subsector&#8221; in the technology sector in 2025.
What Happened: According to Ives, as the world moves toward using cloud services for storing data, strong cybersecurity services becomes imperative for the protection of data.
He highlights that Crowdstrike Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>), Zscaler Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZS#NASDAQ">ZS</a>), Palo Alto Networks Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PANW#NASDAQ">PANW</a>), and Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHKP#NASDAQ">CHKP</a>) could be the biggest beneficiaries of this trend during the upcoming earnings season.
&#8220;When you look at Crowdstrike, Zscaler, Palo Alto, Check Point, as more moves to the cloud, cybersecurity is going to move hand-in-hand. This is going to be one area that outperforms significantly during earnings season,&#8221; Ives <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/video/2025/07/14/ives-the-ai-revolution-is-now-spreading-across-all-corners-of-the-tech-sector.html">told</a> CNBC on Monday.
When highlighted that the cybersecurity ETFs have performed poorly in the near term, Ives quipped that they are going to be one of the best performers of 2025.

&#8220;I think it&#8217;s because of rotation,&#8221; Ives said, highlighting the near-term underperformance. &#8220;I think the market&#8217;s got it wrong, when you actually look at the technology subsector, cybersecurity could be the biggest subsector of the year for tech,&#8221; he added.
Simultaneously, he reiterated his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/price-target/25/07/46339022/palantir-could-be-the-next-big-ai-winner-says-dan-ives-sees-12-pltr-stock-surge">bullish views</a> on Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>), saying that it was on the &#8220;golden path to become an AI stalwart&#8221; over the next 12 months. 
Meanwhile, he also expressed his optimism in International Business Machine Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>), and praised its CEO, Arvind Krishna. &#8220;When it comes to AI, I think what Arvind&#8217;s doing there is that there&#8217;s a renaissance going on in Arkmonk, that&#8217;s why we are very bullish on IBM,&#8221; he said.
When asked what the investors should look out for in IBM&#8217;s earnings, he said, &#8220;I think it&#8217;s cloud computing and it&#8217;s AI-driven revenue. Network services, you could say, is under pressure, but the stack, that&#8217;s what IBM is selling into a massive installed base,&#8221; added that this was going to get &#8220;rerated&#8221; as the investors &#8220;underestimate&#8221; it.

Why It Matters: Apart from the winners in this season, when Ives was asked about the potential earnings misses from the technology sectors during the earnings season, he pointed at Cisco Systems Inc.

Dan Ives Bets On Cybersecurity As 'Biggest Subsector' In Tech For 2025; Expects Strong Q2 Earnings From CrowdStrike, Zscaler, Palo Alto, Check Point

Benzinga examined the prospects for<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> many investors' favorite stocks</a> over the last week — here's a look at some of our top stories.
U.S. markets closed this week at record highs, driven by Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) surpassing a $4 trillion market cap — the first ever, marking a historic milestone — amid easing global tensions and broad AI enthusiasm. President Donald Trump's trade rhetoric intensified, with new 50% tariffs planned on copper and Brazilian goods, but markets remained resilient, betting on eventual policy moderation.
Key sectors like airlines and materials also saw gains, while Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) remained under pressure due to Elon Musk's political activities. Gold and the dollar steadied alongside Treasury yields.

Benzinga Bulls And Bears: Nvidia, Tesla, Carvana — And Trump Amps Up Tariff Talk

Michael Dell, the CEO of&nbsp;Dell Technologies Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>), expressed concerns about the potential cultural challenges that&nbsp;Meta Platforms Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) might face due to its aggressive artificial intelligence hiring strategy.
What Happened: Dell, in a&nbsp;BG2 podcast hosted by Bill Gurley and Brad Gerstner, on Thursday, warned that Meta&#8217;s AI hiring spree could lead to internal discontent among existing employees. This could result in a significant distraction for Meta and its CEO,&nbsp;Mark Zuckerberg.
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.com/quote/META" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">META stock here</a>.
&#8220;It&#8217;ll&nbsp;be a challenge culturally for&nbsp;sure,&#8221; Dell said. He pointed out that the generous salaries of new AI hires could lead to unhappiness and resentment among existing employees. This could potentially create a long line of &#8220;complaining&#8221; employees outside Zuckerberg&#8217;s office, demanding fair treatment.
Dell emphasized the importance of fairness in the workplace, stating, &#8220;People&nbsp;generally have a sense of&nbsp;fairness, right? They&nbsp;want to be treated fairly&nbsp;relative to others and relative&nbsp;to&nbsp;the opportunities that they have&nbsp;out there in the overall&nbsp;market.&#8221;
While Dell acknowledged that Meta&#8217;s strategy and the &#8220;math&#8221; could work if this is reduced to a &#8220;race to super intelligence,&#8221; he maintained that the potential for internal conflict and dissatisfaction should not be overlooked.

Why It Matters: Meta has been aggressively expanding its AI dominance through its Superintelligence Labs, launched in June to pursue artificial general intelligence. This expansion has been fueled by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46301582/metas-ai-empire-grows-fueled-by-openai-deepmind-apple-defectors">poaching top talent</a> from OpenAI, Anthropic, Alphabet Inc.‘s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) Google DeepMind, and Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), reshaping the AI landscape in a fierce talent war. 
However, this aggressive hiring spree has not been without criticism. Like Dell, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman previously warned of potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46216611/openais-sam-altman-hints-at-compensation-evaluation-amid-metas-distasteful-ai-talent-poaching-spree-report">cultural problems</a> at Meta due to its recruitment efforts, calling it "distasteful". He also hinted at possible compensation evaluations for the entire research organization at OpenAI in response to Meta&#8217;s hiring strategy.&nbsp;
On the other hand, Reid Hoffman, LinkedIn cofounder and former OpenAI board member, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/video/2025/07/09/watch-cnbcs-full-interview-with-linkedin-co-founder-reid-hoffman-in-sun-valley.html">told </a>CNBC it&#8217;s economically justified for companies like Meta to invest heavily in AI talent.

Mark Zuckerberg May Have To Deal With A Long Line Of 'Complaining' Employees Outside Of His Door, Warns Michael Dell, Calls Meta's AI Hiring Spree 'Cultural Challenge'

BofA Securities analyst Wamsi Mohan observed that from 2006 to 2024, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">server market revenues</a> grew at a 9% compound annual rate, while unit volumes rose by 4% annually. Looking ahead, he expects artificial intelligence to drive most of the revenue growth in the server market over the next six years.
Mohan projected server market revenues to grow at a 25% annual rate between 2024 and 2030, with unit shipments increasing at a 7% annual pace.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45677102/dell-hewlett-packard-super-micro-set-to-benefit-from-nvidias-ai-chip-ramp" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Super Micro Set To Benefit From Nvidia&#8217;s AI Chip Ramp</a>
Mohan identified Dell Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) and Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>) as key beneficiaries of rising AI server demand. He also noted that Seagate Technology Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STX#NASDAQ">STX</a>), Western Digital Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WDC#NASDAQ">WDC</a>), NetApp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTAP#NASDAQ">NTAP</a>), and Pure Storage (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PSTG#NYSE">PSTG</a>) could benefit over the long term as AI workloads boost demand for storage solutions.
Mohan projected that AI server revenues will outpace overall server market growth between 2024 and 2030, rising at a 28% CAGR compared to the broader market&#8217;s 25% CAGR. He estimated that non-AI server revenues will grow more slowly, at about 4% annually.
Mohan also expects AI server unit shipments to increase at a 15% CAGR, while total server units grow at a 7.2% annual rate during the same period. He forecasted double-digit revenue growth for training and inference systems within AI servers, predicting 20% CAGR for training servers and a significantly faster 47% CAGR for inference servers through 2030.
Dell: He identified Dell as a key beneficiary of growing AI server demand, particularly as enterprises expand their use of AI for inferencing. Mohan noted that Dell ended the first quarter of fiscal 2026 with an AI server backlog of $14.4 billion, having recognized $1.8 billion in revenue and booked $12.1 billion in new orders during the quarter.
Mohan projected Dell&#8217;s AI server revenue could rise from an estimated $9.8 billion in 2024 to over $17 billion in 2025, surpass $30 billion in 2026, and exceed $44 billion in 2027. 
Hewlett Packard Enterprise: Mohan also identified Hewlett Packard Enterprise as a significant beneficiary of rising AI demand, estimating its AI server revenue could grow from $4.5 billion in 2024 to $10 billion in 2025, $15 billion in 2026 and $20 billion by 2027. He noted Hewlett Packard Enterprise ended the second quarter of fiscal 2025 with an APU backlog of $3.2 billion, slightly above the $3.1 billion reported at the end of the first quarter.
What&#8217;s Next: Mohan pointed out that newer GPUs, such as Nvidia&#8217;s Blackwell, require significant power, prompting server and rack manufacturers to integrate liquid cooling systems into their designs. While this specialized hardware currently commands premium pricing, he expects increased competition will eventually push prices down and squeeze margins.
Due to intensifying competition in the AI server market, Mohan expects profit margins to remain under pressure. With GPUs making up a large portion of the cost, he sees operating margins staying in the low-to-mid single digits in the near term.
Mohan projected server industry revenues to grow at a 25% CAGR from 2024 to 2027, primarily fueled by the expansion of AI servers, which command significantly higher average selling prices (ASPs) than general-purpose servers. He forecasted overall server unit growth at 7% CAGR, with ASPs rising at a 16% CAGR during the same period.
Mohan expects most early AI-related demand to center on mid-range and high-end training servers, while inference server demand will rise in later years, primarily in the mid-range segment.
Mohan predicted volume servers, typically priced below $10,000 and used in non-AI applications, will grow at a mid-single-digit pace (5% CAGR over six years). In contrast, Mohan expects mid-range server units to grow at a 19% CAGR, driven by training and inference demand, while high-end server units will grow even faster at a 39% CAGR, fueled by the need to train AI models.
DELL, HPE Price Actions: At publication on Wednesday, Dell stock was up 1.60% at $126.45, Hewlett Packard Enterprise is flat at $20.82.

10 Information Technology Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>), a leading AI server manufacturer, plans to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence" rel="noreferrer noopener">increase its investment</a> in Europe to meet surging demand for AI infrastructure.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">European Expansion Driven By Soaring AI Demand</h2>
The company, which already operates manufacturing facilities in the Netherlands, is exploring additional European locations for expansion, CNBC reported on Wednesday, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/09/super-micro-to-ramp-up-investment-in-europe-to-capitalize-on-ai-demand.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">citing</a> Super Micro&#8217;s chief, Charles Liang.
Liang attributes this accelerated investment to the rapid growth of European demand for AI solutions, a trend he expects to persist globally for many years.

This move follows Super Micro&#8217;s June 11 expansion of Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) Blackwell <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45881923/supermicro-teams-up-with-nvidia-to-supercharge-europes-ai-factories-with-powerful-server-solutions" rel="noreferrer noopener">AI server solutions</a> into the European market, offering over 30 stack options for swift enterprise deployment.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Domestic Production Also Scaling Up</h2>
While focusing on Europe, Super Micro is also <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45541908/supermicro-eyes-texas-mississippi-for-ai-server-growth-as-microsoft-amazon-increase-spending" rel="noreferrer noopener">expanding its server production capacity</a> in U.S. states like Mississippi and Texas. This domestic expansion is driven by the substantial investments from tech giants such as Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Amazon.com (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) in building data centers for AI model deployment and training.
The company also credited President Trump&#8217;s localization initiative as a key factor driving its domestic expansion efforts. However, at that time, Liang also pointed to production difficulties in the U.S., citing elevated costs and the absence of a domestic semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem for over 30 years. He said the long gap left American infrastructure and labor unfamiliar with the demands of manufacturing roles.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stock Performance And Financial Headwinds</h2>
Despite its strong performance year-to-date, with the stock up over 61% and significantly outperforming the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s 6% gain amidst the AI frenzy, Super Micro has faced recent headwinds. The stock plunged over 45% in the last 12 months, lagging the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s 11% gains. This decline was largely due to increased scrutiny over the company&#8217;s internal financing controls, including the resignation of its independent auditor last October, which led to delayed financial filings.
Ongoing tariff uncertainties have also impacted the company, resulting in postponed orders and a downward revision of its fiscal year revenue guidance. Super Micro now forecasts fiscal year revenue between $21.8 billion and $22.6 billion, a reduction from its earlier projection of $23.5 billion to $25 billion.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Strong Growth Trajectory Maintained</h2>
Nevertheless, Liang reiterated to CNBC on Wednesday that Super Micro maintains a robust growth trajectory by advancing its core technologies and broadening its business footprint.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Analyst Outlook</h2>
Analysts have set a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SMCI/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus price forecast</a> of $276.50 for Super Micro, based on ratings from 21 firms. Rosenblatt issued the highest forecast of $1,300 on August 7, 2024, while Wedbush set the lowest at $30 on May 7, 2025. Recent ratings average out to a price forecast of $42.67, suggesting a potential downside of 13.56% from the current level based on those forecasts.
In May, Raymond James <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45399438/smci-rated-outperform-by-raymond-james-amid-dominance-in-branded-ai-server-market" rel="noreferrer noopener">initiated coverage on</a> Super Micro with an Outperform rating, highlighting its rapid revenue growth and leadership in AI-optimized infrastructure. The firm noted that AI platforms generate roughly 70% of Supermicro&#8217;s revenue, establishing the company as a leading force among branded server vendors.
Raymond James forecasted fiscal 2026 revenue of $29.8 billion and EPS of $3.03, emphasizing Supermicro&#8217;s strategic position between traditional IT giants like Dell Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) and Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>) and contract manufacturers such as Quanta.
Price Action: SMCI shares were trading higher by 0.53% to $49.37 premarket at last check Wednesday.

Super Micro Accelerates European Footprint To Meet Exploding AI Needs

Starting July 4, 2026—the nation's 250th birthday—every child born in the U.S. will receive a $1,000 government-funded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45938365/trumps-1000-baby-account-aligns-with-billionaire-investor-warren-buffetts-start-young-philosophy">investment account</a>, thanks to the newly passed Invest America Act.
What Happened: The legislation, introduced by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and backed by President Donald Trump, aims to build generational wealth by seeding every American newborn with a tax-advantaged investment in the S&amp;P 500.
The accounts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/06/45973429/trump-wants-babies-to-get-1000-to-invest-at-birth-this-maginicent-7-stock-tops-poll-for-18-year-growth">allow up to $5,000 in additional</a> contributions from family, friends, or businesses. Funds grow tax-deferred and become accessible at age 18, with restrictions on early withdrawals.
Michael Dell, CEO of Dell Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>), pledged to match the federal $1,000 contribution for the children of his employees.&nbsp;
"The Invest America Act just cleared Congress—every U.S. child gets a $1K S&amp;P 500 starter account at birth. 70M kids gaining a stake in America's growth… future-proofing prosperity!" Dell posted on X, formerly Twitter, after the bill passed.

Why It's Important: Renowned investor Warren Buffett hasn't directly commented on the plan, but as per the available reports, it fits his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45938365/trumps-1000-baby-account-aligns-with-billionaire-investor-warren-buffetts-start-young-philosophy">belief in starting to invest early</a> and holding investments long-term.
Back in 1999, Buffett told a shareholder that the secret to becoming a multi-billionaire is to "start young," comparing compound interest to a snowball that grows bigger the longer it rolls.
Last month, economist Peter Schiff criticized the initiative, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/45854379/economist-peter-schiff-criticizes-trumps-1000-baby-account-proposal-calls-it-unconstitutional-and-a-bad-idea-that-will-only-saddle-them-with-more-debt">calling it unconstitutional</a> and a "bad idea." He argued it would add debt that future generations must repay and said it distracts from larger fiscal issues.

Dell Technologies's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) short percent of float has risen 5.92% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 20.41 million shares sold short, which is 6.8% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.42 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Dell Technologies Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751461227_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Dell Technologies has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Dell Technologies's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Dell Technologies's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 10.90%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Dell Technologies Form4 Filing Shows CEO Michael S Dell Sold 10M Shares At An Average Price Of $122.27/Share

In the current market session, Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) share price is at $123.47, after a 1.99% decrease. Over the past month, the stock spiked by 10.97%, but over the past year, it actually fell by 13.55%. With good short-term performance like this, and questionable long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751054416_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Evaluating Dell Technologies P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Dell Technologies has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 28.54 of the Technology Hardware, Storage &amp; Peripherals industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751054416_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

If You Invested $100 In This Stock 5 Years Ago, You Would Have This Much Today

Landbase, a San Francisco-based AI company aiming to revolutionize how small and midsize businesses launch outbound <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/45027754/glade-brook-leads-25m-bet-on-artisan-the-ai-startup-backed-by-y-combinator-hubspot-and-sequoia-to-replace-human-sales-teams">sales</a>,<a href="https://www.landbase.com/blog/landbase-raises-30-million-series-a-to-help-businesses-find-their-next-customer"> announced</a> Thursday a $30 million Series A round co-led by actor Ashton Kutcher's Sound Ventures and Picus Capital. The round also included continued participation from existing investors including 8VC, A&#x2A;, and Firstminute Capital.
Founded by Daniel Saks, previously co-CEO of AppDirect, Landbase uses its proprietary AI model GTM-1 Omni to help business-to-business companies automate hyper-personalized outreach campaigns across channels. According to<a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/06/12/how-ai-sales-startup-landbase-nabbed-ashton-kutchers-sound-ventures-to-lead-its-30m-series-a/"> TechCrunch</a>, the platform, built on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/45790909/was-jeff-bezos-backed-whylabs-secretly-acquired-by-apple-after-10m-series-a-to-compete-in-ai-arms-race-against-google-openai-and-microsoft">OpenAI</a>'s GPT-4o and trained on 40 million real-world marketing campaigns, delivers predictive intelligence with reinforcement learning and human oversight.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Landbase's GTM-1 Omni Targets Trust Deficit in Outbound Marketing</h2>
Landbase's core thesis emerged from Saks' own experience, including a surprising cold outreach from Dell Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) CEO Michael Dell via LinkedIn while Saks was at AppDirect, TechCrunch says.
&#8220;I thought it was fake," Saks told TechCrunch. "So I'm getting ready for this call, thinking there's no way it's Michael Dell. And I'm almost kind of laughing about it. It actually was Michael." That encounter highlighted the power of recognition in digital outreach and led to the concept of "digital trust," now central to Landbase's model.
Rather than attempting to replace human sales reps, Landbase's platform uses what Saks calls "vibe GTM," applying AI to automate outreach while keeping humans in control of messaging. <a href="https://www.landbase.com/blog/landbase-raises-30-million-series-a-to-help-businesses-find-their-next-customer">The company says</a> campaigns built with GTM-1 Omni have delivered 4x to 7x higher conversion rates compared to traditional methods, and reduced average launch time from 14 days to just minutes.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Celebrity-Backed, Investor-Supported, and Growing Rapidly</h2>
Sound Ventures, which also backs OpenAI, Anthropic, Stability AI, and Hugging Face, saw Landbase as a natural extension of its AI investment thesis. During the pitch, Kutcher proposed replacing the company's original tagline, &#8220;intelligently automate your go-to-market&#8221; with &#8220;find your next customer,&#8221; which Saks told TechCrunch helped seal the deal.
Since launching in late 2024, Landbase has grown from 10 paid customers to over 100, fueled largely by campaigns run on its own platform. The Series A raise attracted 130 inbound inquiries from venture firms, and Saks met with 50 top-tier funds during a multi-city roadshow, TechCrunch says.
"Because we were focusing on our digital trust, we started to get a slew of inbound from investors," Saks told TechCrunch.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Landbase Makes AI Outreach Accessible to Small Business</h2>
Landbase's platform is now available in a freemium model, offering campaign planning tools at no cost and multichannel execution starting at $3,000 per month. Unlike competitors that focus on tech startups, TechCrunch says that Landbase is targeting industries like insurance, commercial landscaping, and managed service providers.
Saks told TechCrunch that the company is focused on expanding GTM-1 Omni's capabilities, deepening partnerships with marketing data providers, and improving campaign quality for under-resourced teams. Future updates will include broader industry coverage and additional pricing tiers designed to support a wide range of small and medium businesses.
Landbase joins a crowded field that includes Regie.ai, AiSDR, ZoomInfo, HubSpot (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HUBS#NYSE">HUBS</a>), Salesforce (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>), and Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), but aims to stand out by prioritizing control, transparency, and trust over AI gimmickry, TechCrunch reports. With strong early metrics and endorsement from high-profile backers, the company may be a next-generation solution for digital growth.

Shares of companies across the broader tech sector are trading lower amid negative overall market sentiment driven by the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran.

In the current market session, Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) share price is at $112.18, after a 0.94% drop. Over the past month, the stock increased by 1.05%, but over the past year, it actually decreased by 16.92%. With good short-term performance like this, and questionable long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1749657631_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>How Does Dell Technologies P/E Compare to Other Companies?</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Dell Technologies has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 27.66 of the Technology Hardware, Storage &amp; Peripherals industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1749657631_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Nvidia's Grace Hopper Platform Powers Europe's Fastest AI Supercomputer

President Donald Trump's sweeping tax-and-spending bill would seed a $1,000 "Trump Account" for every U.S. baby born from Jan. 1, 2025, through Jan. 1, 2029, giving parents a new, stock-indexed nest egg they could add to, but not touch, until the child turns 18.
What Happened: If parents do nothing, the Treasury would open the account at birth with a $1,000 federal deposit, reveals a White House press release. Families could contribute up to $5,000 a year and foundations could give more because gifts from tax-exempt entities do not count against the cap.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), who <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/25/05/45404380/sen-ted-cruz-wants-to-give-americans-1000-at-birth-to-invest-bill-ackman-says-hes-been-a-fan-of-this-idea-for-years">drafted the idea</a> before it got a Trump rebrand, calls the starter stake "transformative" because it puts even non-investors "in the game." Supporters argue the plan mirrors state-level "baby bond" initiatives such as Connecticut's 2023 trust, and borrows from Sen. Cory Booker's (D-NJ) Democratic plan to narrow the wealth gap with federally seeded children's accounts.
Earnings would be taxed as long-term capital gains if spent on college, training, or a first home and would be penalized if used for other purposes, according to the Cruz proposal. A Milken Institute paper by former SEC commissioner Michael Piwowar and economist Robert Shapiro estimates the $1,000 seed could average $8,000 in 20 years, $69,000 in 40 and $574,000 in 60, assuming historical stock returns.

Why It Matters: The House folded the provision into a 1,100-page package Trump touts as his "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45558613/house-advances-trumps-sweeping-one-big-beautiful-bill-after-key-medicaid-tax-and-border-security-changes">big, beautiful bill</a>." It now heads to the Senate, where Republicans must trim spending or rely on budget-reconciliation rules to secure 51 votes. Business lobbyists, including Dell Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>), Salesforce (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>), Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) and Goldman Sachs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) have pledged to match worker contributions, but fiscal hawks warn the program's $3-billion-a-year cost could rise if participation is high.
Some advisers applaud the concept yet question the design. Russell Investments CEO Zach Buchwald <a href="https://www.planadviser.com/know-gops-proposed-trump-accounts/">told</a> PlanAdvisor the measure "misses a critical piece" by skipping dedicated retirement features. Zach Teutsch, managing partner at Values Added Financial, told Yahoo Finance the account <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trumps-new-maga-accounts-are-getting-a-thumbs-down-from-financial-experts-220242429.html">looks</a> "ill-considered" beside 529 college plans or Roth IRAs, which offer tax-free withdrawals.
Handing every newborn $1,000 to invest in stocks both violates the Constitution, <a href="https://x.com/PeterSchiff/status/1932150389199311193">argues</a> economist Peter Schiff. He says Washington should cut today's deficit instead of adding debt that children will have to repay tomorrow.
