China&#8217;s leading automaker, BYD (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>), is outpacing Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) in the deployment of AI-powered driving technology in the Chinese market. The company has launched a new system specifically for budget vehicles.
What Happened: BYD has rolled out a new driving-assistance technology system, known as &#8220;Eyes of God&#8221; in Chinese, for its low-cost mass-market vehicles. This move comes as Tesla faces difficulties in launching its latest driver-assistance software in China due to regulatory hurdles, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/business/china-business/article/3298118/byd-add-autopilot-system-evs-gain-edge-amid-chinas-price-war">reported</a> the South China Morning Post. 
The Chinese automaker has partnered with DeepSeek to roll out driver-assist technology for its electric vehicles. This collaboration is aimed at leveraging DeepSeek&#8217;s AI capabilities to enhance BYD&#8217;s offerings
During a live-streamed launch event in China, late Monday, BYD's Founder and Chairman Wang Chuanfu stated that advanced smart driving will evolve into a standard safety feature, much like seatbelts and airbags.
BYD&#8217;s &#8220;Eyes of God&#8221; system will be integrated into all its models, including an electric compact hatchback priced at approximately $9,600, with the system included in the cost. 
Nomura analysts said, "BYD is changing its competition strategy from price cutting last year to functions' upgrade in 2025."

Why It Matters:&nbsp;The launch of BYD&#8217;s new system underscores the company&#8217;s strategic move to capitalize on the regulatory challenges faced by Tesla in China. Earlier this year, Tesla CEO Elon Musk blamed U.S. and Chinese regulations for the delay in the release of the company&#8217;s &#8220;Full-Self Driving&#8221; software. Despite Musk&#8217;s repeated claims that the software could be available in China by the end of 2024, it has not yet received approval from Beijing.
The successful deployment of the &#8220;Eyes of God&#8221; system in its mass-market vehicles signifies BYD&#8217;s commitment to making advanced driving technology accessible to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43527039/teslas-chinese-rival-byd-to-hire-20000-more-workers-in-zhengzhou-plans-major-expansion-to-meet-rising-ev-demand">broader consumer base</a>. This is in sharp contrast to Tesla&#8217;s plan to charge $8,000 for the installation of its &#8216;Full Self-Driving system&#8217; in the U.S., in addition to a $99 monthly subscription. The Elon Musk-led EV giant is likely to begin testing on the mainland later this year.
However, Brian Tycangco, an analyst at Stansberry Research, warned that the Chinese EV giant&#8217;s association with DeepSeek "increases the likelihood that BYD vehicles will face more difficulties entering Western markets like the U.S. due to national security reasons."

Elon Musk-led EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) said on Monday that its newly built megafactory in Shanghai manufactured the first Megapack, boosting the company&#8217;s fast-growing energy storage segment.
What Happened: The first megapack to have rolled off the production line at the Shanghai megafactory will be shipped to Australia, the company said in a post on X, formerly Twitter. 
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">The first Megapack rolled off the production line at the Megafactory Shanghai and will soon ship to Australia&#x1f389;<a href="https://twitter.com/teslaenergy?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@teslaenergy</a> <a href="https://t.co/ze0jXgO0B2">pic.twitter.com/ze0jXgO0B2</a>
&mdash; Tesla Asia (@Tesla_Asia) <a href="https://twitter.com/Tesla_Asia/status/1889141621893022190?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 11, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

Megapack is a powerful battery manufactured by the company for large-scale energy storage. Each unit can store over 3.9 Megawatt-hours of energy, which is enough to power an average of 3,600 homes for an hour.
The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42680075/tesla-exec-says-we-will-be-ready-to-efficiently-produce-autonomous-vehicles-as-shanghai-megafactory-nears-completion" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Shanghai megafactory</a>&nbsp;is the company&#8217;s first factory dedicated to the production of energy storage products outside the U.S.&nbsp;Currently, Tesla has only one other factory dedicated to manufacturing megapacks, located in Lathrop, California. The Lathrop facility has the capability of producing 40 GWh of energy storage products every year.
Tesla officially began the construction of the Shanghai megafactory in May, taking less than a year from the start of construction to commencing production. 
Why It Matters:&nbsp;Tesla reported revenue of over $3 billion from its energy generation and storage segment in the fourth quarter or more than double the $1.44 billion reported in the corresponding quarter of 2023, upon deploying a record&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42780335/teslas-evergy-storage-deployements-rise-in-q4-even-as-vehicle-deliveries-disappoint" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">11.0 GWh of energy storage products</a>.
Revenue from the energy segment accounted for about 12% of the company&#8217;s total revenue in the quarter, while the automotive segment accounted for 77%. The company reported quarterly&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43321103/tesla-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-miss-eps-miss-ev-updates-automaker-says-2025-will-be-a-seminal-year" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">total revenue</a>&nbsp;of $25.71 billion, missing a street consensus estimate of $27.26 billion, owing to an 8% drop in automotive revenue.

Both the powerwall and megapack continue to be supply-constrained as it opens to new markets, the company added.

Tesla Starts Production At Shanghai Megafactory Less Than 9 Months After Beginning Construction

Cryptocurrencies themed on video game retailer GameStop Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) were up in the green Monday, buoyed by interest in CEO Ryan Cohen&#8217;s picture with Strategy co-founder Michael Saylor.&nbsp;
What happened: Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>)-based GameStop soared nearly 50% in the last 24 hours, with its trading volume surging by 37% to $1.83 million, <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/gamestop/">according</a> to CoinMarketCap.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The rise alleviated some of the coin&#8217;s problems, which had lost more than 33% over the last month.
Similarly, Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based GmeStop, with a much lower market capitalization, rose over 3% in the last 24 hours.&nbsp;
It's worth noting that these coins aren&#8217;t directly tied to GameStop but rather seek to capitalize on the hype surrounding the meme stock.

Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, is the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, and Saylor is known for consistently <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43583287/michael-saylor-declares-death-to-blue-lines-long-live-green-dots-is-strategys-btc-purchase-streak-about-to-resume">pushing for the asset's adoption</a>.&nbsp;
GameStop has been one of the most popular retail stocks in the last few years, helped by the historic 2021 meme stock craze that saw the stock squeeze higher. Keith Gill, also known as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/roaring-kitty">&#8220;Roaring Kitty,"</a> has been influencing GameStop price action with cryptic posts on X.

GameStop-Themed Crypto Rallies 50% After Ryan Cohen Posts Intriguing Photo With Bitcoin Bull Michael Saylor

An Alabama resident on Monday confessed to hacking&nbsp;the SEC&#8217;s X account and posting a fake Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) exchange-traded fund approval message, causing millions of dollars in market losses.
What Happened: Eric Council pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit aggravated identity theft in a federal court in Washington, D.C., according to a Justice Department press release. 
He now faces&nbsp;a maximum sentence of five&nbsp;years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000, and potentially&nbsp;three years of supervised release. The sentencing is slated for May.
According to court records, the Council had been involved in a conspiracy to execute Subscriber Identity Model attacks, also known as &#8220;SIM swaps,&#8221; for monetary gain. He executed a SIM swap of the mobile phone account associated with the SEC&#8217;s official X account to gain unauthorized access.

The market soared on the fake announcement of a spot Bitcoin ETF, only to plummet minutes later when reality set in. Over $220 million was liquidated from the cryptocurrency market in the ensuing chaos. The ETFs were formally approved a day later.

Hacker Pleads Guilty To SEC's Fake Bitcoin ETF Post On X That Triggered Financial Wipeout Worth Millions

Activist investor Elliott Investment Management has amassed a $2.5 billion stake in Phillips 66 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PSX#NYSE">PSX</a>), significantly expanding its position in the U.S. oil refiner and intensifying pressure for operational restructuring, particularly regarding its midstream business.
Elliott's latest investment, which places it among Phillips 66&#8217;s top five shareholders, comes less than a year after its initial $1 billion stake secured a board seat for refining veteran Robert Pease, Reuters reported, citing sources.
Despite Phillips 66&#8217;s commitment to performance improvements in March 2023, its stock has declined from $163.34 to $123.71, underscoring Elliott&#8217;s concerns about unfulfilled promises and operational inefficiencies.
The move aligns with Elliott&#8217;s recent pattern of industrial sector activism, including its stake in BP Plc and its role in Honeywell&#8216;s three-way split. According to the report, Elliott aims to push for the sale or spinoff of Phillips 66&#8217;s midstream operations to streamline the company&#8217;s structure and enhance shareholder value.
Phillips 66 did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.
Price Action: Phillips 66 shock gained 2.83% on Monday to close at $123.71. Despite the recent uptick, the stock has declined 14.36% over the past year, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) played a major role in Super Bowl LIX without overtly advertising its products, a move that YouTuber and reviewer Nikias Molina called "discretely genius."
What Happened: On Monday, in a series of posts on X, formerly Twitter, Molina said that Apple focused on culture, music, and community engagement.
He highlighted that Apple CEO Tim Cook attended the Super Bowl alongside Senior VP Eddy Cue. Its executives were on the ground reinforcing the company's deep ties to the event.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Apple Music also continued its sponsorship of the halftime show, featuring artist of the month Kendrick Lamar as the headliner.

The YouTuber described the sponsorship as "stunning product placement" without the need for direct advertising. At the end of the show, Apple even introduced a promotional offer—six months of Apple Music for just $2.99.
&#8220;Apple isn't pushing the iPhone or AirPods in your face. Instead, it's aligning itself with music, culture, and the biggest entertainment event of the year,&#8221; he stated.
He summed up, saying, "Apple doesn't need to show an iPhone at the Super Bowl because it owns the culture around it. This is long-term brand building at its finest."

Apple's Super Bowl LIX Strategy 'Discretely Genius,' Says YouTuber Nikias Molina—Here's How Cupertino Stole The Spotlight Without Pushing An iPhone In Your Face

Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd. (CATL), the world&#8217;s largest electric vehicle battery manufacturer, is preparing to file for a secondary listing in Hong Kong this week that could raise at least $5 billion, marking one of the territory&#8217;s largest offerings in recent years.
What Happened: The Chinese battery giant could submit its listing application as early as Tuesday or Wednesday, Reuters reported, citing sources. The move comes as Hong Kong&#8217;s capital markets show signs of revival, particularly among mainland Chinese firms seeking secondary listings to access international investors.
The planned listing gains significance against the backdrop of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/42838053/us-adds-tencent-tesla-supplier-catl-to-chinese-military-blacklist-shares-tumble">escalating U.S.-China tensions</a>. On Jan. 7, U.S. authorities under former President Joe Biden added CATL to a list of companies allegedly working with China&#8217;s military, potentially complicating its international business relationships. 
CATL, a key supplier to Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and other major automakers, did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.

Why It Matters: The offering would represent Hong Kong&#8217;s largest listing in three years, during which the city&#8217;s equity capital markets have struggled due to stringent Chinese regulatory oversight and global market volatility. 
CATL&#8217;s move aligns with a broader trend of Chinese A-share companies pursuing Hong Kong listings to diversify their funding sources and enhance their global market presence.

Tesla Supplier CATL Eyes $5 Billion Hong Kong Listing Amid US Sanctions, Market Revival: Report

McDonald&#8217;s Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCD#NYSE">MCD</a>) is betting big on global growth despite warning of a &#8220;sluggish start&#8221; to 2025 announced during its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43592025/fast-food-major-mcdonalds-stocks-rise-despite-q4-sales-miss-details">fourth-quarter earnings call</a> on Monday. With plans to open 2,200 new restaurants this year as the fast-food giant works to recover from recent challenges including an E. coli outbreak.
What Happened: The expansion push comes as McDonald&#8217;s faces continued pressure from rising menu prices and softening demand, particularly among low-income customers who are &#8220;down double digits&#8221; in recent months according to CEO Chris Kempczinski.
Recent financial results reflect these pressures, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43592025/fast-food-major-mcdonalds-stocks-rise-despite-q4-sales-miss-details">fourth-quarter sales</a> declining 0.3% year-over-year to $6.39 billion, missing analyst estimates of $6.44 billion.
&#8220;Obviously, our performance in 2024 did not meet our expectations,&#8221; Kempczinski acknowledged on the company&#8217;s earnings call. CFO Ian Borden noted that the first quarter of 2025 will likely be a &#8220;low-point quarter&#8221; for the company as it grapples with industry-wide traffic declines and the lingering effects of 2024&#8217;s food safety incident.
The company is also preparing to bring back fan-favorite Snack Wraps and launch new chicken strips later this year, though executives remained tight-lipped on specific timing. &#8220;My U.S. team would kill me if I gave any more details,&#8221; Kempczinski joked.

Why It Matters: The chain is fighting back with an aggressive value strategy, including new meal bundles and promotions. Early results show promise – the $5 meal deal is driving average checks above $10 as customers add additional items to their orders.
Of the planned 2,200 new locations, about 1,000 will be in China, with the remainder split between the U.S., other international markets, and developmental licensee regions. The expansion is part of the fast-food giant&#8217;s strategy to reach 50,000 locations by 2027.
Price Action: McDonald&#8217;s stock surged 4.80% on Monday, gaining $14.12 to close at $308.42. In after-hours trading, the stock edged down 0.21%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

McDonald's To Open 2,200 New Restaurants Amid 'Sluggish Start' To 2025, CEO Hints At Snack Wrap Comeback

Cardano (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ada/usd">ADA</a>) surged double digits on Monday evening after digital asset management giant Grayscale Investments applied for the U.S.&#8217;s first-ever spot Cardano exchange-traded fund.
What Happened: NYSE Arca, a New York Stock Exchange&nbsp;subsidiary, submitted a 19b-4 application on behalf of the asset manager, seeking approval to list shares of Grayscale Cardano Trust. 
&#8220;While an investment in the shares is not a direct investment in ADA, the shares are designed to provide investors with a cost-effective and convenient way to gain investment exposure to ADA,&#8221; the SEC filing read. 
The trust&#8217;s custodian would be Coinbase, which has served as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/02/37174858/coinbase-named-as-custodian-in-5-of-8-ethereum-etf-applications-says-ceo-brian-armstrong">principal custodian</a> for several Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) ETFs.
In response, ADA shot up over 11% in the last 24 hours, outgaining market heavyweights like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>). 
See Also:<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"> </a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43584910/man-who-accidentally-lost-his-775-million-bitcoin-stash-expresses-desire-to-buy-the-landfill-site">Man Whose $775 Million Bitcoin Fortune Lies Buried In A Landfill Now Wants To Buy The Trash Heap</a>
Why It Matters: The latest filing is part of a broader trend of companies ramping up their efforts to gain approval for various cryptocurrency funds since President Donald Trump took office.
The SEC has <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/43328116/litecoin-spikes-over-11-after-sec-acknowledges-etf-filing-market-regulator-says-ltc-very-similar-to-bitcoin">acknowledged ETF applications</a> for Litecoin, spurring optimism that the proof-of-work cryptocurrency might be the next to see an investment vehicle on Wall Street after Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Grayscale, the world&#8217;s leading digital asset manager, has been actively seeking approval to convert its existing trusts into ETFs, including those of Litecoin, Dogecoin, and XRP (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/xrp/usd">XRP</a>).
Price Action: At the time of writing, ADA was exchanging hands at $0.7418, up 11.11% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>. Year-to-date, the coin has lost over 11% of its value.

Jeff Bezos-backed Anthropic's Economic Index report on Monday showed that AI adoption is booming in software development and technical writing, while jobs requiring physical labor remain largely unaffected.&nbsp;&nbsp;
What Happened: The study analyzed millions of anonymized conversations on Claude.ai to understand how AI is used across different professions.
It found that software engineers and programmers dominate AI usage, with 37.2% of queries related to coding tasks like software modification, debugging, and network troubleshooting.
Roles in farming, fishing, and forestry barely register, accounting for just 0.1% of AI-related queries — although this development was unsurprising.

Other fields, such as office administration and education, also showed moderate AI usage, though far below that of computer-related jobs.
&#8220;AI use is more prevalent for tasks associated with mid-to-high wage occupations like computer programmers and data scientists, but is lower for both the lowest- and highest-paid roles,&#8221; the report noted.
Moreover, the study revealed that AI is more commonly used to augment work (57%) rather than automate it (43%). This means people leverage AI to enhance productivity rather than replace jobs outright.
Subscribe to the&nbsp;<a href="https://bztechtrends.beehiiv.com/subscribe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Tech Trends newsletter</a>&nbsp;to get all the latest tech developments delivered to your inbox.
Why It&#8217;s Important: In December 2024, a survey report by KPMG U.S. revealed that nearly one-third of workers acknowledge AI&#8217;s role in enhancing their skills, yet there remains a palpable fear of job displacement.
While 47% of workers believed AI could open new job opportunities, 28% expressed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42554957/nearly-one-third-of-workers-say-ai-is-boosting-their-skills-but-still-fear-losing-their-jobs-to-it">concern over potential job loss</a>.
According to the World Economic Forum&#8217;s (WEF) Future of Jobs Report 2025, 41% of companies plan to reduce their workforce over the next five years as AI automates more tasks.
However, there's positive news too. While WEF predicts that 92 million jobs will vanish by 2030, it also says 170 million new jobs will emerge.
Technology, data, and AI are among the fastest-growing job sectors. Core economy roles like delivery drivers, caregivers, educators, and farmworkers will also see growth.
By 2030, in-demand skills will include both tech expertise and human-centered abilities like cognitive thinking and teamwork.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Rise As Investors Shrug Off Trump's Tariff Order: Analyst Sees 'Healthier Market Cycle' As Trader Interest Shifts From Meme Coins To BTC (CORRECTED)

On Monday, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) rolled out iOS 18.3.1 and iPadOS 18.3.1 updates.
What Happened: The updates address a vulnerability that could disable USB Restricted Mode on locked devices, said Apple.
The flaw, which required physical access to the device, was reportedly exploited in sophisticated attacks targeting specific individuals.

Super Micro Computer, Gamestop, McDonald's, Monday.Com, And Tesla: Why These Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Editor's Note: A typographical error in the headline of this story has been corrected.
Leading economists criticized former President Donald Trump&#8216;s plan to reimpose 25% tariffs on metal imports, while U.S. steel stocks rallied sharply during Monday&#8217;s trading session amid expectations of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43583123/trump-to-announce-25-steel-and-aluminum-tariffs-economist-warns-president-is-making-us-manufacturing-globally-uncompetitive">reduced foreign competition</a>.
What Happened: Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers warned the proposed tariffs would lead to &#8220;fewer American jobs, more American inflation, and probably a bigger trade deficit,&#8221; questioning potential national security benefits from tariffing allies. 
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">I&#39;m sorry that Trump&#39;s threatened steel and aluminum tariffs have now been implemented. This will mean fewer American jobs, more American inflation and because of damage to us exports probably a bigger trade deficit. I do not see any national security gain from tariffing Canada.
&mdash; Lawrence H. Summers (@LHSummers) <a href="https://twitter.com/LHSummers/status/1889114367645344099?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 11, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

Jason Furman, former Chair of the Council of Economic Advisers under former President Barack Obama, called the policy a &#8220;self-inflicted wound&#8221; that would raise input costs for American manufacturers.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Public policy shouldn't aim to help manufacturing. But nor should it aim to hurt manufacturing. And that is exactly what steel and aluminum tariffs do, raising input costs for American manufacturers. Not to mention raising borrowing costs &amp; the dollar. A self inflicted wound.
&mdash; Jason Furman (@jasonfurman) <a href="https://twitter.com/jasonfurman/status/1889115505044177308?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 11, 2025</a></blockquote>

Steel stocks <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43592144/us-steel-aluminum-stocks-rally-as-trump-revives-25-tariff-plan">responded positively to the announcement</a>, with Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>) surging 23%, while Nucor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) and Steel Dynamics Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLD#NYSE">STLD</a>) gained 6.52% and 5.75% respectively. United States Steel Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/X#NYSE">X</a>) advanced 6.63%, and Century Aluminum Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CENX#NASDAQ">CENX</a>) rose 14.1%.
The tariffs announced by Trump would apply to all countries without exemptions. The policy mirrors his 2018 measures that imposed 25% duties on steel and 10% on aluminum imports, citing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43583123/trump-to-announce-25-steel-and-aluminum-tariffs-economist-warns-president-is-making-us-manufacturing-globally-uncompetitive">national security concerns</a>.
Market analyst Peter Schiff cautioned about broader economic implications: &#8220;Everything that American companies manufacture or build that requires steel or aluminum, such as cars, aircraft, appliances, and houses will cost more.&#8221;

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Trump imposed 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports.

Why It Matters: Benn Steil, director of international economics at the Council on Foreign Relations, noted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43583123/trump-to-announce-25-steel-and-aluminum-tariffs-economist-warns-president-is-making-us-manufacturing-globally-uncompetitive">the disproportionate impact</a> on Sunday, citing that &#8220;Steel-using firms employ over 5 million Americans&#8230; Steel-intensive industries account for over 20% of U.S. manufacturing output.&#8221;
The impact could be particularly significant for U.S.-Canada trade relations. According to U.S. Census Bureau data, Canada exported $11.2 billion in steel and $9.5 billion in aluminum to the U.S. in 2024. Canadian Innovation Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne emphasized the critical role of Canadian metals in <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43592144/us-steel-aluminum-stocks-rally-as-trump-revives-25-tariff-plan">U.S. defense and manufacturing sectors</a>.
The automotive industry, which employs 7 million Americans, could face significant challenges from higher material costs. European steelmakers, including German manufacturer Salzgitter, warned the tariffs could redirect excess global supply toward their markets, potentially destabilizing <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/43592144/us-steel-aluminum-stocks-rally-as-trump-revives-25-tariff-plan">international trade dynamics</a>.
