Cryptocurrency analysts are expressing caution about Bitcoin&#8216;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) near-term price action, pointing to continued government sell-offs, market liquidity issues and the uncertainty surrounding the altcoin market <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/bitcoin-price-prediction">as bearish factors</a>.
What Happened: Pseudonymous analyst Altcoin Sherpa <a href="https://x.com/AltcoinSherpa/status/1877309941221888090">indicated</a> lack of buying pressure, cautioning about selling pressure due to the government&#8217;s ongoing Bitcoin liquidation.
He also warned that overleveraged traders could face substantial losses if Bitcoin drops below the $90,000 level, leading to potential wicks down to the mid-low $80,000s in specific scenarios.
According to Sherpa, absorption of the sell-off isn&#8217;t assured, meaning Bitcoin faces a precarious situation.
Analyst Kevin supported Sherpa&#8217;s analysis, <a href="https://x.com/Kev_Capital_TA/status/1877325228843426256">pointing</a> out that the monthly liquidity heat map shows a significant amount of long liquidity cleared out.
Still, there remains a &#8220;pretty heavy block of liquidity&#8221; down to the $89,000-$90,000 level, with the potential for a solid bounce if those levels are reached.
Kevin <a href="https://x.com/Kev_Capital_TA/status/1877327425756869086">highlighted</a> a critical test for the altcoin market, suggesting that the total market cap of altcoins is currently testing its daily super trend and 100-day exponential moving average on the daily timeframe for the second time in a month.
According to Kevin, if history is any indication, losing this support level during a bull market often leads to significant drawdowns, which makes this area incredibly important for the market's health.
He also noted that the current moment will determine if the cryptocurrency market still operates in a cyclical nature, or if past performance was influenced solely by loose monetary policy.

Why It Matters: Both experts are raising serious concerns about the immediate future of the market, with potential for heavy losses for the highly leveraged traders, and also major drawdowns in the altcoin market if critical support levels break.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading down about 0.2% over the last 24 hours at $94,220.

3 Bearish Factors That Could Drag Bitcoin Below $90,000

The S&amp;P 500 entered uncharted territory in 2024, rallying 23.3% without a single daily close below its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/200-day-moving-average#:~:text=200%2DDay%20SMA%20Formula&amp;text=The%20200%2Dday%20SMA%20is%20recalculated%20every%20day%20by%20adding,200%20to%20calculate%20the%20average.">200-day moving average. </a>
In a note shared Thursday, Bank of America analyst Stephen Suttmeier highlighted that this was only the 15th occurrence in nearly a century, with those years averaging an annual return of 25.4%.
However, history suggests that 2025 may not be as smooth for the index, as the probability of revisiting the key technical level dramatically increases.
The last time the S&amp;P 500, as tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), fell below its 200-day moving average occurred in November 2023. The 200-day moving average is currently at 5,569, suggesting the S&amp;P 500 would need to decline by 6% from its current levels to breach this critical technical support.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Chart: S&amp;P 500 Holds Above 200-Day MA Since November 2023</h3>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="541" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/09110907/image-51-1024x541.png" alt="" class="wp-image-726426" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/09110907/image-51-1024x541.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/09110907/image-51-300x159.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/09110907/image-51-768x406.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/09110907/image-51-1536x812.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/09110907/image-51.png 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What Does The 200-Day Moving Average Tell Us?</h3>
The 200-day moving average is a widely followed technical indicator used to gauge the longer-term trend of the market. When the S&amp;P 500 consistently trades above this level, it is often seen as a sign of market strength.
Conversely, a break below it can signal the onset of volatility or bearish momentum.
Suttmeier highlighted that years like 2024, when the index avoids closing below this critical support level, are rare and tend to deliver strong returns. 
Since 1928, the S&amp;P 500 has achieved this milestone 15 times, and in those years, the index averaged a 25.4% annual gain. 
However, the following years tend to be far more erratic.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">2025: Likely to Test the 200-Day MA</h3>
The S&amp;P 500 has historically struggled to repeat back-to-back years of avoiding the 200-day MA. 
The last time this happened was in 1954 and 1955. This makes 2025 a pivotal year, with Suttmeier suggesting that the index will likely trade below its 200-day MA, which begins the year near 5560.
"The years following a rally that avoids the 200-day MA are often more challenging," Suttmeier said. 
On average, returns in these subsequent years plummet to just 0.9% (median 0.6%), with the index closing higher only 50% of the time. 
Maximum returns for those years peaked at 26.7%, but declines were severe, with losses as steep as 38.6% in 1937.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Historical Patterns and Presidential Cycles</h3>
Adding to the potential headwinds, 2025 marks the first year of a new presidential cycle. 
According to historical data, Presidential Cycle Year 1 tends to be one of the weaker years, especially following strong gains in Years 3 and 4 of the cycle, like the 2023-2024 rally.
Under these conditions, the S&amp;P 500 has risen 63% of the time in Year 1, delivering an average return of 1.9%. 
While the index has shown the capacity for significant gains—like 31% in 1997—it also recorded its worst single-year decline of -38.6% in 1937.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Secular Bull Market: Mid-Cycle Or Late Stage?</h3>
Despite the potential challenges for 2025, the S&amp;P 500 remains in the midst of a secular bull market, according to Suttmeier, now entering its 12th year since breaking above its 2000 and 2007 peaks in April 2013. 
Secular bull markets, which represent long-term upward trends, have historically lasted 16-20 years, such as the periods from 1950-1966 and 1980-2000.
Bank of America suggests the current secular bull market could extend until 2029 or beyond, though dips like the 2020 pandemic sell-off or a potential test of the 200-day MA in 2025 are likely to occur along the way.

S&P 500 Enters 2025 In Rare Technical Territory: Why This Analyst Expects 'Challenging' Year Ahead

Get ready to dust off your office shoes. Nearly three-quarters of executives plan to tighten return-to-office (RTO) policies in 2025. This might sting a little if you're used to working from home.
In a survey from Resume.org, 73% of business leaders at companies with RTO rules said employees would need to clock at least three days a week in the office by the end of next year. For some, it'll be even stricter – one in three bosses expects workers to show up daily.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why The Push For In-Person?</h2>
Executives aren't making this move just for fun. They've got reasons.
Don't Miss:

</ul>
About 70% of execs cited collaboration and teamwork as key benefits of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/09/40969855/jpmorgan-ceo-jamie-dimon-calls-for-federal-employees-to-return-to-office-says-empty-buildings-bother">in-person work.</a> Nearly 60% said better communication is the goal. Half want to boost organizational culture. But here's the kicker – not everyone's buying that productivity improves.
Nicole Kyle, cofounder of CMP Research, told Business Insider that studies show remote and hybrid setups often perform just as well – or even better – than fully in-office arrangements. "Metrics don't change much when people aren't physically together," she said.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Real Estate Matters</h2>
Let's not ignore the elephant in the room: office space. Companies are paying big bucks for real estate and four in 10 surveyed executives admitted they want to use those empty desks.
Still, some experts argue it's not all bad. Lisa Walker from DHR Global told Business Insider that bringing people back allows senior staff to mentor juniors. "To get junior people in, you need senior people there," she explained.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Costs Of Mandates</h2>
Here's the downside. Strict RTO policies could be driving employees away.
Research from the <a href="https://business.pitt.edu/return-to-office-mandates-dont-improve-employee-or-company-performance/">University of Pittsburgh</a> found that companies with rigid in-office rules see &#8220;abnormally high&#8221; quit rates – and it's not just anyone leaving. Women, experienced staff and top talent are most likely to walk. These companies also struggle to fill open positions. Some executives have even openly admitted they implemented RTO mandates <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/07/39945751/bosses-admit-using-return-to-office-mandate-to-get-workers-to-quit-survey">in hopes employees would quit.</a>
"The brain drain is real," Kyle added, noting it's creating headaches for firms trying to compete.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Balancing The Push</h2>
Not all companies are forcing the issue. Sundar Pichai, Google's CEO, recently said his team won't mandate more office time as long as employees remain productive at home. It's a balancing act between collaboration and flexibility; some leaders are still figuring it out.
For now, though, the message is clear: pack your bag, prep for the commute and get ready to see more cubicle neighbors in 2025.

In LA, that now also includes housing. A Los Angeles developer, Thrive Living, is planning a unique approach to building affordable housing – putting it on top of a Costco.&nbsp;
According to the Wall Street Journal, construction on the 800-unit development will start in early 2025 in the Baldwin Village section of South LA, with the bulk item retailer taking up the ground floor. To qualify for tax breaks, the development will have a rooftop pool and fitness center and will also contain 184 apartments for low-income residents.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Membership Model Is The Key To Costco&#8217;s Success</h2>
By partnering with a successful retail chain – which, according to The Motley Fool, derives 73% of its profits from members&#8217; dues – Thrive&#8217;s rental income from its brand-name tenant will mean it will not need to rely heavily on government subsidies. In California, using government subsidies has been a contentious issue for developers because of the additional costs they engender through <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/01/36453695/a-49-unit-affordable-housing-community-in-los-angeles-has-taken-17-years-to-build-and-its-still-not">delays</a>, bureaucracy and red tape (as CRE Daily explained when using the example of developer SDS Capital Group, who halved their costs by using private funding). If the Thrive/Costco project succeeds, it could pave the way for similar projects.&nbsp;
&#8220;I want to build thousands and thousands of apartments every year, not hundreds,&#8221; Thrive&#8217;s founder, Ben Shaoul, who also runs Magnum Real Estate Group in New York, told the Wall Street Journal.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Win/Win</h2>
Mixed development projects are nothing new, especially in urban areas where space is limited. They&#8217;re a win/win: the retailer rents space from the developer and has a built-in customer base of residents above its store. They also make sense in cities where parking is an issue, with customers able to take an elevator rather than a highway to shop.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Lack Of Competition</h2>
While many retailers such as Whole Foods and Target are content to rent space, Costco – predominantly in suburban locations with ample parking – has preferred to own rather than lease its premises. It&#8217;s not as if Costco can&#8217;t afford to buy in LA. According to the retail website Expanded Ramblings, Costco&#8217;s total revenue in 2024 was $249 billion (with $6.29 billion in profit), spread over 128 million members. However, the Baldwin Village location, a lower-income section of Baldwin Hills – often dubbed the Black Beverly Hills where median house prices are around $1 million, according to Redfin – makes sense for Costco because of the lack of competition.
&#8220;Costco would advantage the people in the neighborhood because we only have a Ralphs right here,&#8221; resident Karen Johnson told NBC Los Angeles. &#8220;There are a lot of large families living out here that can&#8217;t afford large housing, so when they go to buy small stuff, they have to spend more money, but when they go to Costco, they can buy bulk and they can save some money. Plus, there are jobs for the community.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A New Way Of Doing Things</h2>
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, a former Baldwin Village resident, endorsed the collaboration, taking advantage of state law AB 2011, designed to streamline approvals for apartments and mixed-use projects, including low-income housing.
Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $70 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
&#8220;We are breaking with the old ways of doing things and moving Los Angeles forward,&#8221; Bass said in a statement. &#8220;Unprecedented action driven by urgent collaboration in both the public and private sector is what is expected and that&#8217;s what we are delivering today.&#8221;
LA, like much of California, is experiencing a housing crisis. It is desperately looking for innovative ways to bring affordable housing to the city. Developers like Thrive see this as a golden opportunity.
&#8220;Mayor Bass has declared a housing emergency in Los Angeles and we&#8217;re answering the call,&#8221; Jordan Brill of Thrive Living told NBC LA. &#8220;Our company is focused on addressing the severe housing affordability crisis in Los Angeles while also attracting retailers willing to make long-term commitments and deliver community-serving products and services that enrich the living experience for our residents and neighbors.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Advantage Of Modular Construction</h2>
Thrive founder Shaoul estimates the Baldwin Village project should cost around $425 million to build. He started the project using a combination of company money and bank loans, which he used to buy the land. Costco&#8217;s strong credit rating is considered a big advantage when building the retail section of the development; the residential section would be funded separately. Construction is meant to conclude in 2027, thanks to off-site<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/analyst-ratings/25/01/42771671/assessing-sun-communities-insights-from-10-financial-analysts"> modular housing</a>, which will streamline construction compared to on-site building.

Abivax Announced A Milestone In The Phase 3 ABTECT Trial Of Obefazimod For Moderately To Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis

Ahead of the fourth-quarter reporting season, Goldman Sachs&#8217; Eric Sheridan sized up <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/e-commerce">the e-commerce industry</a>.
In an analyst note published on Wednesday, Sheridan issued ratings for the following companies:
<ul>
<li>Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) with a Buy rating and a price target of $240.</li>
<li>eBay Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EBAY#NASDAQ">EBAY</a>) with a Sell rating, raising its price target from $53 to $55.</li>
<li>Chewy Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHWY#NYSE">CHWY</a>) with a Buy rating and a price target of $40.</li>
<li>Etsy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETSY#NASDAQ">ETSY</a>) with a Sell rating, lowering its price target from $47 to $45.</li>
<li>Wayfair Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/W#NYSE">W</a>) with a Neutral rating and a price target of $50.</li>
</ul>
Main Takeaways: Sheridan found the fourth quarter showed stable performance, boosted by stronger-than-expected holiday online sales. Non-discretionary and subscription-based purchases drove growth, especially among higher-income households.
The analyst is bullish on Amazon and Chewy for their customer loyalty, and in Amazon&#8217;s case, its subscription. Sheridan noted that consumers &#8220;traded down&#8221; on price to close the year.
Goldman Sachs&#8217; Buy ratings on Amazon and Chewy reflects &#8220;continued preference&#8221; for e-commerce companies that are exposed to less discretionary categories with high repeat behavior through subscriptions and/or essentials purchasing, Sheridan says. Online spending &#8220;remains volatile across discretionary categories and lower-income households.&#8221;
Chewy and Etsy have fewer repeat purchases and are driven by &#8220;enthusiast&#8221; buyers, he adds.
Sheridan also believes company margins will disperse in 2025, with Amazon and Chewy as beneficiaries and eBay and Etsy on the losing end.
Sheridan expects to see &#8220;a divergence in margin trajectories&#8221; between:
<ul>
<li>Companies that can balance stronger demand with targeted growth investments and produce attractive incremental margins with revenue outpacing expenses (Amazon, Chewy) and</li>
<li>A potentially more challenging margin outlook for the companies where we expect revenue to remain pressured (eBay, Etsy, Wayfair) &#8220;absent any additional cost reduction measures.&#8221;</li>
</ul>
Sheridan anticipates online retail companies will maintain their commitment to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/buybacks">share buybacks in 2025</a>.

Snow Lake Resources's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LITM#NYSE">LITM</a>) short percent of float has risen 10133.33% since its last report.

<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/">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.

Looking Into Best Buy Co's Recent Short Interest

Wildfires continue to ravage Los Angeles county on Thursday, causing billions of dollars in damage to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42894683/los-angeles-wildfires-stoke-investor-fears-edison-internationals-stock-ended-10-lower-on-wednesday-amid-concerns-over-possible-equipment-links-to-forest-fires">homes and businesses</a>. 
What To Know: Accuweather on Wednesday<a href="https://www.accuweather.com/en/blogs-webinars/california-wildfires-52-57b-damage-estimate-accuweather-report/1731718"> issued a</a> preliminary estimate of the total damage and economic loss from the Southern California wildfires to be between $52 billion and $57 billion.&nbsp;
More than 2,000 structures have been damaged or destroyed and additional damages are expected as red flag warnings continue through Thursday.&nbsp;

Five fires continue to burn in Los Angeles County on Thursday, with officials reporting the Palisades fire and the Eaton fire remain at zero containment,<a href="https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-01-08/fire-weather-fierce-winds-los-angeles"> according </a>to the Los Angeles Times.&nbsp;
"This is already one of the worst wildfires in California history. Should a large number of additional structures be burned in the coming days, it may become the worst wildfire in modern California history based on the number of structures burned and economic loss," AccuWeather Chief Meteorologist Jonathan Porter said.
California Insurance Industry: California faced an insurance crisis before the fires began, as insurers were already fleeing the state due to massive losses caused by larger and more frequent wildfires.&nbsp;
Actor James Woods highlighted the problem in a social media post, saying that a major insurance company had recently canceled the policies in his neighborhood.&nbsp;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

Many homes in the affected areas are insured by the state-backed insurer of last resort, the California FAIR Plan. The plans are more expensive and provide less coverage than traditional private plans.
Tim Zawacki, an insurance sector strategist at S&amp;P Global Market Intelligence,<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/08/climate/california-homeowners-insurance-fires.html"> told The</a> New York Times the number of homes in the ZIP code affected by the Palisades fire that are enrolled in the FAIR Plan has nearly doubled over the last year.
Experts are concerned the destruction caused by the ongoing fires could exacerbate the insurance crisis in the state. Equity analysts are forecasting potential insurance industry losses of between $6 billion and $13 billion, <a href="https://www.reinsurancene.ws/analysts-peg-insured-la-wildfire-losses-at-up-to-13bn-economic-loss-put-at-more-than-52bn/">according to</a> Reinsurance News.&nbsp;
Some of the largest property insurers in California include Allstate Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>) and The Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>).
BMO Capital Markets analysts estimate that at around a $3.5 billion insured loss, the fires could add risk to first-quarter earnings per share estimates for reinsurers, per Reinsurance News.&nbsp;
The analysts added that a loss of more than $7 billion, would affect first-quarter earnings results across the insurance and reinsurance sector.

LA Wildfire Damages Could Top $52 Billion As California Faces Property Insurance Crisis

Jefferies Financial Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEF#NYSE">JEF</a>) delivered mixed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b42886369/jefferies-announces-fourth-quarter-2024-financial-results">fourth-quarter results</a> after Wednesday&#8217;s closing bell, with earnings falling short of expectations but analysts highlighting the company's strong position to benefit from a capital markets recovery.
The company delivered a "modest miss" in earnings of 93 cents per share versus the consensus of 98 cents per share, mainly due to softer-than-expected margins and a lower-quality revenue mix, according to Goldman Sachs.
The Jefferies Financial Group Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/6149a1cd46584a00014583f4/james-yaro">Analyst James Yaro</a> maintained a Buy rating for Jefferies Financial Group, while raising the price target to $87. 
The Jefferies Financial Group Thesis: The company's core pre-tax margins missed Street expectations by 215 basis points, Yaro said in the note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
While Jefferies Financial Group's core revenues were broadly in line with expectations, the revenue mix was "somewhat skewed to areas with a lower multiple," the analyst stated. The company's high-quality investment banking arm delivered a revenue miss of 9%, he added.
Despite the softer earnings, Jefferies Financial Group is "one of the best places to play the capital markets recovery, given ongoing share gains in recent years, and relatively attractive valuation," Yaro further wrote.
JEF Price Action: Shares of Jefferies Financial Group finished 0.69% higher at $80.13 on Wednesday.

'Dogecoin Killer' Shiba Inu Down 3.5% In 7 Days: Is This Really 'Healthy Accumulation'?

Mark Cuban, the billionaire entrepreneur and longtime investor on Shark Tank, has always been a fan favorite. Known for his outspoken personality and sharp business acumen, Cuban recently shared his thoughts on his fellow Sharks, saying, &#8220;All of them have their own thing,&#8221; and spilled some tea on what it's really like working with them.
When asked how he'd rank the Sharks during an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiK6IWhDbWU">appearance</a> on Theo Von's Podcast, Cuban jokingly said, "You put me in the bad spot! They're all tied for last." But he didn't hold back when breaking down each Shark's unique personality and approach.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Sharks, According to Cuban</h2>
<ul>
<li>Barbara Corcoran: Cuban called her his favorite, praising her ability to read people. "She'll just say to somebody, ‘You're lying' or ‘You're dishonest,' and she'll be right," he said. However, Cuban added with a laugh, "She can't do math. Like, I'll have to tell her what eight times eight is."</li>
<li>Kevin O'Leary: Known as the show's "bad guy," <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42559810/people-think-kevin-oleary-is-the-mean-shark-but-he-says-im-not-mean-i-just-tell-the-truth-to-keep-families-from-going-broke">Kevin embraces his villainous persona</a>. Cuban didn't elaborate much, simply saying, "Kevin's Kevin."</li>
<li>Robert Herjavec: Cuban described Robert as being into "pets and kids and stuff like that," highlighting his softer side.</li>
<li>Lori Greiner: As the "queen" of consumer products, Lori is a natural for retail-focused businesses.</li>
<li>Daymond John: Dubbed the "people's Shark," Daymond focuses on helping smaller businesses grow.</li>
</ul>
As for himself, Cuban admitted he's mostly there to have fun and occasionally stir things up among the group – &#8220;I just f&#x2A;&#x2A;&#x2A; with all of them!&#8221;
See Also: With 100+ historic trademarks including some of the high grossing characters in history, like Cinderella, Snow White and Peter Pan, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/elf-labs-1">this company is transforming the $2 trillion entertainment market with patented AR, VR, and AI tech. — For a short window, investors are able to claim $2/share ($980 min).</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Price of Wealth and Fame</h2>
Cuban also opened up about the lesser-known downsides of being a billionaire. One major issue? Lawsuits. "People sue you. You're the deep pockets," Cuban explained. "I've been sued five times and four of them were just people trying to get money." As someone with "deep pockets," Cuban said he's often targeted unfairly.
His family is also impacted by his public persona. The particular difficulties faced by Cuban&#8217;s children include increased scrutiny. If they mess up, &#8220;it's on the front page of the paper because you're my kid," he said. Cuban shared how one of his sons recently asked for a "normal" moment, saying, "When you're there, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42594446/shark-tanks-mark-cuban-backs-portable-golf-game-despite-his-hate-for-golf-ill-do-videos-of-this-even-at-a-pga-event-2">everything changes</a>." While heartbreaking, Cuban said he understands.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Shark Tank Profits and Purpose</h2>
Despite investing nearly $20 million in startups on Shark Tank, Cuban <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42618228/mark-cuban-admits-ive-gotten-beat-after-losing-20-million-on-shark-tank-startups">admitted he hasn't turned a profit</a>. Speaking on the Full Send Podcast in 2022, he said, "Oh no, I've gotten beat." His biggest flop? Breathometer, a smartphone Breathalyzer that earned backing from all five Sharks. While it had potential, poor management and an FTC settlement over faulty readings ultimately tanked the company.
Trending: Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die." <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/connect-invest-real-estate-notes">These high-yield real estate notes that pay 7.5% &#8211; 9% make earning passive income easier than ever.</a>
Still, as he reflected on his time on the show, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42380333/mark-cubans-favorite-shark-tank-product-was-created-just-for-dudes-and-is-raking-in-over-100-million-a-year-wipe-early-wipe-often">Cuban highlighted Dude Wipes</a> as one of his favorite investments. The personal hygiene brand has grown into a $100 million business, which he said is "killing it." On the flip side, Cuban regrets not investing in Spikeball, a backyard sports game that became wildly popular. "Every time I see it, it just reminds me I missed out," he admitted.
But for Cuban, Shark Tank is about more than money. "It teaches kids about the power of entrepreneurship," he said. He's proud that the show inspires people to chase the American dream and take risks.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Shark No More</h2>
After 14 seasons, Cuban stepped away to spend more time with his family, especially his teenage kids. "I've missed [time with them] for so long. Now they're teenagers, I just don't want to miss any more of that time," he told Good Morning America.
