Apple CFO Says Sees Low-To-Mid-Single-Digit Revenue Growth In June-Ending Quarter

When a Reddit user asked, &#8220;Is staying loyal to a company actually career suicide in 2025?&#8221; the <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/jobs/comments/1k9ux81/is_staying_loyal_to_a_company_actually_career/">r/jobs</a> community had plenty to say.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The End of Loyalty</h2>
Hop jobs every two years or ride it out? The overwhelming consensus is that loyalty to a company just isn&#8217;t what it used to be. Many commenters argued that loyalty should no longer be part of career decision-making. One user summed it up: &#8220;Never do it out of loyalty.&#8221;

</ul>
Several users shared personal stories of staying too long at companies that eventually let them go without hesitation. &#8220;I turned down several lateral/better jobs to be loyal to my employer over the 10+ years,&#8221; one commenter wrote. &#8220;In the end, they <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44406867/a-senior-developer-asked-for-a-raise-after-having-a-baby-learned-a-hard-lesson-about-job-security-vowed-to-never-rely-on-just-one-job-again">rewarded my loyalty</a> and high performance with letting me go.&#8221;
Another added, &#8220;You stay at a company so long as you are getting either good raises/promotions consistently and/or the benefits/work environment are amazing.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Hop or Stay? It Depends</h2>
The advice wasn&#8217;t universally &#8220;job hop every two years no matter what.&#8221; Many commenters stressed that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44909179/a-redditor-asks-if-she-should-leave-a-secure-job-to-get-out-of-debt-before-starting-a-family-right-now-we-dont-feel-financially-stressed">the right move</a> depends on personal circumstances. If a company offers fair pay, strong benefits, a good team, and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38635370/meta-or-google-which-tech-giant-offers-better-work-life-balance-heres-what-an-ex-product-manager-who">work-life balance</a>, staying can make sense — but it should be a conscious, calculated choice instead of an emotional decision.
&#8220;I'm comfortable&#8230;. not loyal,&#8221; one Redditor explained. As long as the employer meets their needs, they&#8217;re good.

Others echoed the idea that hopping jobs can result in higher pay, much faster than staying put. &#8220;I job hopped from $12.50 an hour to 115K a year in five years,&#8221; one person said.
However, some warned about hopping too often. &#8220;You gotta stay somewhere for at least a year or you&#8217;ll look like a red flag,&#8221; one user advised.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Economic Reality Check</h2>
With a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44415047/recession-will-rear-its-ugly-head-as-early-as-july-warns-expert-amid-two-rate-cuts-projected-for-2025-buy-bonds-on-dips">possible recession looming</a>, a few commenters urged caution. &#8220;Honestly, I felt lucky to get a job in 2025,&#8221; one said. &#8220;Switching during economic uncertainty feels foolish to me.&#8221;
Several users recommended keeping an updated resume and interviewing at least once a year, even if you&#8217;re happy. &#8220;Nobody is immune to layoffs,&#8221; a top commenter reminded. &#8220;Having a good resume ready and keeping your interview skills sharp is critical.&#8221;
Instead of asking if you should stay loyal, many Redditors suggest treating your job like a business decision. Evaluate whether staying or leaving will better help you meet your personal and financial goals. Loyalty alone, most agree, won&#8217;t protect your career or your paycheck in 2025.
As one user put it: &#8220;Loyalty will get you nowhere with almost every single company.&#8221;

'Hop Jobs Every Two Years Or Ride It Out?'—A Redditor Asks If Staying Loyal To A Company Is Career Suicide In 2025

Gold just wrapped up its biggest outperformance versus the U.S. stock market in 14 years, delivering returns dwarfing those from the S&amp;P 500 for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">the fifth straight month</a> in April.
The yellow metal&#8217;s 34% rally against the benchmark U.S. share index over the last five months is its largest over such a period since 2011. It&#8217;s also the longest monthly streak of gold outperformance since 2009, as persistent geopolitical risks and economic uncertainties related to President Donald Trump&#8216;s trade tariffs drove investors toward the perceived safety of bullion.
The SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>), the largest gold-backed ETF globally, climbed 5.4% in April. 
In contrast, the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), which tracks the benchmark U.S. equity index, slipped 0.9%. That resulted in a relative outperformance of 6.4% for gold in April alone.
Yet, in the final week of April and the first session of May, gold has given up some ground to equities, prompting traders to question whether this is a mere pullback in a bullish trend or the beginning of a shift in market leadership.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Seasonal Trends Paint A Murky Picture For Gold in May</h3>
Historical data doesn't offer a clear answer. 
Over the past 25 years, gold has recorded gains in May 12 times and losses in 13, with an average return of 0.6% and a median return of -0.3%, as Seasonax data shows. In short, May has been a coin flip for the yellow metal.
June offers little help as well: combining May and June, gold averaged just a 0.2% return and posted gains in only 13 of the past 25 years.
That said, the seasonal tide turns in summer. July sees an average gold return of 0.9%, while August delivers the real momentum, with a 1.9% average gain, its second-best month of the year after January.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">S&amp;P 500 Seasonality Remains Equally Uncertain</h3>
Stocks share a similarly choppy seasonal record in May. Over the past 25 years, the S&amp;P 500 posted positive May returns 15 times, with an average monthly gain of 0.2%. But June tends to be a drag for equities, with an average loss of 0.6%.
July, however, could favor the bulls: the S&amp;P 500 has historically rallied 1.6% on average in that month, making it the second-best performing month behind November.
Post-Election Years: Stocks Historically Had A Slight Edge
Post-election years tend to favor equities over gold. 
Analyzing 97 years of data, the S&amp;P 500 has posted an average gain of 4.8% in the year following a U.S. presidential election, with 14 up years and 10 down years. 
In comparison, gold has shown more modest returns as the bullion advanced by an average of 2.8%, registering gains in just 8 instances versus 6 losses. 
This suggests that, historically, stocks tend to perform better than gold in the early phase of a new presidential term – despite both assets show weaker-than-average annual returns.

Gold Leaves S&P 500 In The Dust With Biggest Outperformance In 14 Years

<ul>
<li>Intel announced plans to develop its own AI chips on an earnings call Friday</li>
<li>The company's previous strategy has been to acquire AI startups that have already developed their own chips</li>
<li>Analysts remain split on whether or not the plan will work, citing Nvidia's dominance in the market</li>
</ul>
Intel (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) CEO Lip-Bu Tan announced that the company will be working to develop its own AI chips, in an <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/article/4777999-intel-corporation-intc-q1-2025-earnings-call-transcript">earnings call </a>on Friday.
"This is not a quick fix," Tan said on the call. He continued that he would be combing through Intel's existing products, looking for ways to sharpen them to meet emerging trends in the AI market.

<li>Hasbro, MGM, and Skechers trust this AI marketing firm — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/rad-intel">invest pre-IPO from $0.60 per share now</a>.</li>
</ul>
"We are taking a holistic approach to redefine our portfolio, to optimize our products for new and emerging AI workloads,&#8221; Tan said. "Our goal is to become the platform of choice for our customers. This requires us to radically evolve our design and engineering mindset and anticipate the needs of our customer well in advance.&#8221;
One of Intel's biggest missed opportunities over the last years has been its failure to challenge Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) in the AI chip market. With a valuation of $2.65 trillion, Nvidia has become the dominant player in the market.
Previously, Intel's approach has been to let AI companies develop the chips and then to acquire those companies. Between 2016 and 2019, it acquired a number of AI startups, including Movidius, Nervana, and Habana Labs. However, many of these deals failed to help the company gain traction against Nvidia and other competitors.

Intel's chief financial officer, David Zinser, told <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/after-years-failed-ai-deals-intel-plans-homegrown-challenge-nvidia-2025-04-25/">Reuters</a> that the company will be putting acquisitions on hold for the near future. "Our priority will need to be, at this point, getting the balance sheet to a better place,&#8221; he said.
Analysts are split on whether or not the plan will work.
Bob O'Donnell, the chief analyst at Technalysis Research, told Reuters, "Intel has a long history of building important new silicon developments within its own walls, so I'm not shocked to see them focus on in-house developments for AI. If they can build the appropriate set of software support to help make it easy to deploy these new chips, then they have a chance—but that is a big if."

Other analysts told Reuters that they think the move is too little, too late, telling Reuters that Nvidia's position is too strong, and combined with the efforts of other companies like Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and Google, there simply isn't room for a new player.&nbsp;
Hendi Susanto, a portfolio manager at Gabelli Funds, told Reuters that the company provided a peek at their overall AI strategy on the call. That strategy is to focus on chips and systems that run AI applications and edge devices. "While these areas show promise, the scale and pace of their growth remain uncertain,&#8221; she said.

Twilio Stock Darts Higher On Better-Than-Expected Q1 Results, Raised Guidance: Operating Discipline Is 'Paying Off'

In an investing environment where income is again popular but volatility is still a constant companion, Simplify Asset Management is taking a measured gamble: that small-cap stocks, if carefully chosen and handled with surgical precision-like surgery—can provide both growth opportunities and stable income. The company has partnered with Piper Sandler to introduce the Simplify Piper Sandler US Small-Cap PLUS Income ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LITL#NYSE">LITL</a>), an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">actively managed fund</a> that not only surfs the small-cap wave but attempts to drive it.
LITL is constructed for investors looking for a sophisticated way to get small-cap exposure—one that screens for quality, responds to the business cycle, and provides an added dimension of monthly income generation through a proprietary options overlay.

The <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250429948814/en/Simplify-Expands-Its-Equity-PLUS-Options-ETF-Suite-With-Launch-of-the-Simplify-Piper-Sandler-US-Small-Cap-PLUS-Income-ETF-LITL">fund </a>begins by narrowing down approximately 2,000 U.S. small-cap stocks, eliminating the most illiquid and volatile. Piper Sandler then brings a macroeconomic perspective to bear in informing stock selection. The company&#8217;s factor-based approach focuses on 3–4 indicators—like value, revisions to earnings, or stability in sales—that are well-received in today&#8217;s economic climate. These stocks are ranked based on these indicators, and this yields a portfolio of about 200 names, half the size of the market, half-weighted and re-allocated only when the macro environment necessitates it.
What distinguishes LITL is its dual mandate. In addition to capital appreciation, the fund seeks to provide monthly income through a risk-managed options strategy. Rather than limiting upside with covered calls, LITL sells put spreads on a variety of instruments—from equity indices to commodities—to generate extra yield while trying to maintain equity gains.
Simplify&#8217;s CIO and co-founder, David Berns, explained that small-cap stocks can have periods of high growth but have always been more economically cyclical than big-cap stocks. Piper Sandler&#8217;s special economic overlay tries to add value by choosing the stocks most likely to thrive in today&#8217;s environment, while delivering investors current income.
The fund has an expense ratio of 0.91%, reflective of its active management and options overlay—a bit pricier than passive small-cap funds, but consistent with sophisticated strategy peers.
With small caps often overlooked in conservative markets, LITL is a contrarian bet: that strategic stock selection, guided by macro insight and supported by a steady income engine, can bring a stronger—and more rewarding—dimension to small-cap investing.
