Reddit, GoDaddy & Trade Desk Are Among Top 11 Large-Cap Losers Last Week (Feb 10-Feb 14): Are The Others In Your Portfolio?

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43669470/im-so-sorry-dave-ramsey-left-speechless-after-hearing-the-capital-gains-tax-a-canadian-restaurant-owner-would-owe-if-he-sold-his-business">Dave Ramsey</a> has made his stance clear on corporate taxes and how they affect regular Americans. In a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/QaHbofQy-qU">recent clip</a> "The Ramsey Show" posted on YouTube Shorts, Ramsey explains that the idea of taxing corporate America is "mythology."
"The company that I own is a corporation," he explained. "Now, if you raise the taxes on that company, on your basis, then do you not think the cost of a ‘Total Money Makeover' book or the cost of a ‘Financial Peace' kit for you to attend the class is gonna go up?"

</ul>
Ramsey used his own business as an example to show that when companies face higher taxes, it's the consumer who ends up paying. Economists have argued this idea for years: when corporate taxes go up, the cost is usually passed on to consumers through higher prices, employees through lower wages, and shareholders through decreased returns.
But not everyone agrees with this view.
Corporate taxes have been a point of debate for a long time. In 2017, the Trump administration lowered the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Supporters of the cuts believed this would spark growth and lead to better wages for workers. However, a survey from the National Association for Business Economics found that only 4% of businesses actually increased hiring as a result of the tax change.

During his campaign for a second term, President Donald Trump even proposed further <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41291635/are-trumps-proposed-corporate-tax-cuts-the-key-to-unleashing-a-stock-market-boom-heres-what-history">cutting corporate taxes to 15%</a>. Whether this will happen remains to be seen, but the debate continues.
Despite arguments for tax cuts boosting the economy, many Americans believe corporations need to pay more. A <a href="https://news.gallup.com/opinion/polling-matters/652151/americans-stand-taxes.aspx">Gallup poll</a> found that 70% of Americans feel big companies don't pay enough taxes. Public opinion on this issue differs by political affiliation, with 94% of Democrats, 78% of Independents, and 63% of Republicans supporting higher corporate tax rates.
Supporters of raising corporate taxes argue that businesses should contribute more to support public services and infrastructure. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43578641/bernie-sanders-says-we-must-not-savage-programs-for-working-families-to-provide-huge-tax-breaks-for-billionaires">Bernie Sanders</a> (I-VT) has been vocal about this, saying, "At a time of massive wealth and income inequality and soaring corporate profits, it is an outrage that many large, profitable corporations continue to pay little to nothing in federal income taxes."
Chuck Marr and his team at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities argue that the 2017 tax cuts mainly benefited wealthy individuals, and they believe raising the corporate tax rate to 28% could generate $1.3 trillion over the next decade, providing funding for critical public needs.

On the other hand, opponents of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41658421/no-one-in-the-u-s-would-have-to-pay-a-dime-in-taxes-warren-buffett-on-berkshire-hathaways-federal-ta">higher corporate taxes</a> say it could slow down economic growth, lead to higher prices for consumers, and push businesses to move abroad. Rep. Carol Miller (R-WV) wrote in <a href="https://fortune.com/2024/09/25/rep-miller-raising-corporate-tax-rate-hurt-american-business-investment-consumers-politics-congress-economy/?abc123">Fortune</a> in September that raising corporate taxes would "slow economic growth, reduce jobs, and weaken U.S. competitiveness."
Economists like E.J. Antoni from the Heritage Foundation argue that corporations don't truly bear the tax burden—consumers, workers, and shareholders do. He said taxes are simply another cost of doing business, and those costs end up being passed on to people in different ways.
The corporate tax debate is ongoing, with strong opinions on both sides. While Ramsey and others argue that consumers ultimately pay the price, those in favor of raising taxes believe it's necessary for fairness and to support essential public services. As the conversation continues, the effects on businesses, workers, and everyday people will remain a major point of discussion.

Super Micro Computer, Intel, Alibaba And CVS Are Among Top 13 Large-Cap Gainers Last Week (Feb 10-Feb 14): Are The Others In Your Portfolio?

The week was abuzz with tech giants making significant moves and stirring up discussions. Elon Musk&#8217;s whopping $97 billion acquisition proposal to OpenAI was turned down, while Mark Zuckerberg&#8217;s Meta is reportedly planning a major investment into AI-powered humanoid robots. Intel might find a lifeline in a joint venture with Taiwan Semiconductor, and Scarlett Johansson&#8217;s call for AI regulation has sparked a conversation.
OpenAI Rejects Musk&#8217;s $97 Billion Acquisition Proposal
The board of OpenAI has turned down a substantial $97.4 billion acquisition offer from Elon Musk and his consortium of investors, according to the Wall Street Journal. The decision was communicated via a letter to Musk&#8217;s lawyer, stating that the offer was not in line with OpenAI&#8217;s mission. OpenAI&#8217;s chairman, Bret Taylor, stressed that the company is not for sale and the board unanimously rejected Musk&#8217;s offer.

Meta to Invest in AI-Powered Humanoid Robots
Following in the footsteps of Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg&#8216;s Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) is reportedly planning a significant investment into AI-powered humanoid robots. Bloomberg reports that Meta is forming a new team within its Reality Labs hardware division to lead this initiative. The tech giant aims to develop its own humanoid robot hardware, initially for household tasks, with a broader goal of creating AI, sensors, and software for robots that other companies will manufacture and sell.

Intel May Find Lifeline in Joint Venture with Taiwan Semiconductor
Rumors suggest that Intel Corp.

Baird analyst Tristan Gerra reports that supply chain sources indicate the U.S. government might intervene to push this joint venture to strengthen domestic chip manufacturing. The deal would involve TSMC deploying engineers to Intel&#8217;s advanced 3nm and 2nm fabrication plants to ensure the success of Intel&#8217;s foundry business.

Elon Musk's OpenAI Bid, Meta's AI Robots, Intel's Lifeline, Johansson's AI Regulation Plea, And More: This Week In AI

Within the first week of his inauguration, President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43177482/trump-signs-executive-order-on-crypto-bitcoin-reserve-to-be-evaluated">signed an executive order</a> that included a directive to evaluate the creation of a "strategic national digital assets stockpile." The Federal Reserve has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43646173/bitcoin-ethereum-dogecoin-dip-even-as-fed-chair-powell-says-no-to-cbdcs-analyst-says-btc-under-consolidation-but-next-big-move-could-be-likely">shunned plans</a> to create a central bank digital currency, setting a conducive ecosystem for cryptocurrencies to grow.
However, the move has sharply contrasted with the policy of the European Central Bank, which ruled out <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43344908/bitcoin-will-not-be-considered-for-central-bank-reserves-ecb-president-christine-lagarde-says">adding digital assets to monetary frameworks</a>. 
One of the ECB's fiercest critics, Sarah Knafo, a European Parliament member from France, spoke with Benzinga about how Europe was missing out on an impending "revolution" by ignoring Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and clinging to inflationary fiat currencies. 
Knafo belongs to the French-nationalist Reconquête party, which was founded in late 2021. She was elected to the European Parliament in 2024 and currently serves as the Vice-Chair of the Europe of Sovereign Nations Group.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Fight Against &#8220;Totalitarian&#8221; ECB</h2>
The European lawmaker said Bitcoin was a response to the "galloping" inflation in Europe.&nbsp;
"Public deficit leads to monetary creation, which creates inflation, which leads to chaos. Because of these poor political choices, our traditional currencies have only collapsed for decades, while that of Bitcoin only strengthens," Knafo stated, aligning with the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41930918/trumps-high-inflation-regime-will-weaken-the-dollar-and-push-bitcoin-to-1m-says-arthur-hayes-get-long-and-stay-long">arguments of Bitcoin maximalists</a>.&nbsp;
In a recent address to the European Parliament, Knafo slammed the idea of a digital euro and backed the creation of a strategic Bitcoin reserve.&nbsp;
"I am going to fight the digital euro, this totalitarian temptation of the ECB, by alerting public opinion," Knafo said. "I will do everything my status as a member of Parliament allows me to do."

ECB, on the other hand, states on its website that the digital euro will provide a higher level of privacy than other digital payment systems and that the infrastructure provider won&#8217;t be able to connect transactions to individuals. The central bank declined to categorically respond to Knafo&#8217;s accusations.
Regarding Bitcoin, ECB President Christine Lagarde said last month that the leading cryptocurrency does not align with its standards for safety, liquidity, and regulatory compliance, and hence fails the reserve asset test.
It's worth noting that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43622299/poland-rejects-bitcoin-reserves-as-czech-republic-and-us-explore-crypto-holdings"> Poland has ruled out</a> adding Bitcoin to its reserves, while another non-eurozone member, the Czech Republic, showed interest in exploring the idea.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The El Salvador Playbook</h2>
When asked if Bitcoin might become legal money alongside the euro, the lawmaker stated, &#8220;I believe that Bitcoin has the capacity to be an answer, without replacing traditional currencies.&#8221;&nbsp;
Knafo reserved special praise for El Salvador, the first country to adopt Bitcoin as a legal tender. "For the moment, El Salvador&#8217;s choice is visibly paying off and offers a very interesting and innovative growth driver."
Interestingly, President Nayib Bukele, under whose administration Bitcoin became a legal tender, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40644084/el-salvador-president-nayib-bukele-says-bitcoin-uptake-hasnt-been-a-resounding-success-we-">admitted last year</a> that the cryptocurrency hasn&#8217;t witnessed widespread adoption as expected.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Michael Saylor Is A Genius, The U.S. A Pioneer</h2>
Knafo acknowledged the pro-cryptocurrency pivot in the U.S. under Trump, contrasting it with the "slowness" of European institutions.&nbsp;
"Historically, the United States has had the ability to scale up at the forefront of innovation, while the EU wastes time regulating before innovating. This freedom allows them to be pioneers," she said.&nbsp;
Knafo also talked about her <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43596456/strategy-acquires-7633-bitcoin-for-742-4-million-boosts-holdings-to-478740-btc">recent meeting</a> with Michael Saylor, the co-founder of the world's largest Bitcoin holding company, Strategy.
"This meeting was absolutely fascinating, and Michael is a genius entrepreneur. We talked about Bitcoin but also about many other future topics such as AI, French nuclear power, and the future of Europe.&#8221;

GameStop-Linked Crypto Soars, Trump-Backed Project Bolsters Bitcoin, And More: This Week In Crypto

Tulsi Gabbard, President Donald Trump&#8217;s contentious selection, has been confirmed as the new Director of National Intelligence (DNI). This confirmation has provoked warnings of potential severe consequences from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42935659/mary-trump-blasts-uncle-over-wildfire-comments-if-donald-trump-can-profit-from-your-death-he-will-facilitate-it">Mary Trump, the President&#8217;s estranged niece</a>.
What Happened: Gabbard, a U.S. Army Reserve member,&nbsp;was confirmed by the Senate last week in a 52-48 vote. Following this, she was&nbsp;sworn in as DNI, a&nbsp;position that supervises the 18 intelligence agencies and organizations in the U.S.
Despite her confirmation, Gabbard&#8217;s selection has stirred controversy due to her past pro-Russian stance and her 2017 meeting&nbsp;with former Syrian President Bashar&nbsp;al-Assad. Among her critics is Mary Trump, who expressed her apprehensions in a Substack <a href="https://www.marytrump.org/p/another-line">post</a>, branding Gabbard as a &#8220;known Russian asset&#8221; and a &#8220;defender of the murderous dictator&nbsp;Bashar al-Assad.&#8221;
&#8220;One of the most powerful people in the cabinet is a known Russian asset, a defender of the murderous dictator Bashar al-Assad, and enemy to our ally (?) Ukraine. There are many reasons Gabbard is unfit, but they lead to one potentially catastrophic outcome—having her in such a sensitive position will give our allies pause. Why should they trust us if they cannot trust that we will use any intelligence they share in a way that does not undermine or harm them? What if they stop sharing intelligence at all?,&#8221; she wrote. 
During her confirmation hearing, Gabbard defended her interaction with Assad and pledged to prevent future leaks of classified information.

However, her confirmation has sparked worries about the potential effects on America&#8217;s relationships with its allies.
&#8220;The nominations came and went. We resigned ourselves to the reality that the only thing standing between us and a catastrophic blow to American democracy was Senate Republicans. Even they would understand how damaging it would be to this country's safety, national security, and health to confirm these miscreants,&#8221; Mary Trump wrote in the post. 
At her swearing-in ceremony, President Donald Trump commended Gabbard, stating that she was an &#8220;easy&#8221; choice and that she will &#8220;work tirelessly to keep America&nbsp;safe.&#8221;
Why It Matters: Gabbard&#8217;s confirmation as DNI, despite the controversy surrounding her, underscores the Trump administration&#8217;s willingness to make unconventional choices. 
Her past actions and affiliations have raised eyebrows, but the administration believes in her commitment to safeguarding American interests. However, the dissenting voices, including that of Mary Trump, highlight the potential risks and the need for vigilance in the intelligence community. 
As Gabbard takes on her new role, the world will be watching closely to see how she navigates these challenges and impacts U.S. intelligence operations and international relations.

Mitch McConnell's Tariff Concerns, Jerome Powell's Inflation Stance, Trudeau's Tariff Slam, Inflation Surge, And More: This Week In Economics

The past week has been a whirlwind of news, with the spotlight on Elon Musk&#8216;s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and its access to federal payment systems, the impact of President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariffs on the soda industry, and more. Let&#8217;s dive into the details.
Treasury Probes DOGE&#8217;s Access to Payment Systems The Treasury Department&#8217;s Office of Inspector General has initiated an audit of security controls for federal payment systems, following concerns about access granted to DOGE, an initiative tied to Elon Musk. The review comes in the wake of concerns raised by Democratic lawmakers over potential improper access and implications for government financial security. The audit will assess federal payment system security over the past two years, specifically investigating allegations of fraudulent access and potential misuse tied to DOGE&#8217;s involvement. =

Morgan Stanley&#8217;s CIO Sees DOGE as Potential Economic Booster Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley&#8217;s chief investment officer, has suggested that DOGE, led by Musk, could play a pivotal role in revitalizing the US economy. Wilson noted that DOGE has already pinpointed tens of billions in government waste, and a reduction in government size could lead to increased unemployment and prompt the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates.

Trump&#8217;s Tariffs and the Soda Industry U.S. soft drinks primarily use high fructose corn syrup instead of sugar, a practice dating back to a trade barrier imposed by former President Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. This policy continues to shape today&#8217;s trade landscape, where President Donald Trump&#8217;s tariffs continue to impact global policy.

Musk's DOGE Under Treasury Scrutiny, Trump's Tariffs Impacting Soda Industry, And More

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43276105/trumps-tax-plan-could-slash-social-security-benefits-33-by-2035-ramsey-show-host-george-kamel-weighs-in">President Donald Trump</a> has announced a new wave of tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, aiming to strengthen domestic manufacturing while introducing a &#8220;reciprocal tariff&#8221; system that could significantly impact international trade.
On Sunday, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that his administration would implement a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43613133/trumps-25-tarrifs-a-self-inflicted-wound-says-economist-amid-warnings-of-fewer-american-jobs-peter-schiff-says-youll-pay-more-for-cars-and-homes">25% tariff on all steel and aluminum imports</a> to the United States, building upon his previous trade policies from his first term. Trump also emphasized the need for a level playing field in global trade by implementing reciprocal tariffs, stating, &#8220;If they charge us, we charge them.&#8221;

</ul>
True to his word, the steel and aluminum tariff proclamations were signed Monday, to go into effect March 12. These proclamations remove exemptions from Trump&#8217;s 2018 tariffs on the metals–which previously made the tariffs ineffective for several countries, including Canada and Mexico–and raised the tariffs from 10% to 25% for all steel and aluminum imports.&nbsp;
Alongside the metals tariffs, Trump also plans to introduce a reciprocal tariff policy that will match the rates imposed by other countries on American exports. He has long been vocal about trade imbalances, particularly the European Union's 10% tariff on U.S. automobiles compared to the 2.5% tariff the U.S. levies on European cars. Trump argues disparities like that put American industries at a disadvantage and that imposing matching tariffs will restore fairness in trade agreements.

While the full details of this policy are expected in an upcoming press conference, the new tariff structure could have widespread implications for global commerce, affecting industries from automotive manufacturing to whiskey distillation.&nbsp;
Chris Swonger, CEO of the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States, expressed concern over potential EU retaliation. "A 50% tariff on America&#8217;s native spirit will have a catastrophic outcome for the 3,000 small distilleries across the United States," Swonger <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/trump-says-he-will-announce-25-steel-aluminum-tariffs-monday-2025-02-09/">told Reuters</a>.&nbsp;
There have been mixed responses to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43686104/mitch-mcconnell-criticizes-trumps-tariff-plans-warns-of-potential-price-hike-big-lingering-concerns-for-american-industry-and-workers">Trump's tariff plans</a>. Supporters of the tariffs, including the American Iron and Steel Institute, say the move is a necessary step toward protecting U.S. manufacturers from what they view as unfair foreign competition.&nbsp;
&#8220;We look forward to working closely with the President and his administration to implement a robust and reinvigorated trade agenda to address the many foreign market-distorting policies and practices that create an unlevel playing field for American steelmakers,&#8221; AISI President Kevin Dempsey told Reuters.&nbsp;

Critics argue that increased tariffs could lead to higher costs for U.S. manufacturers that rely on steel and aluminum, ultimately affecting prices for consumers. Canada, a major supplier of aluminum to the U.S., has voiced opposition.&nbsp;
Canadian Innovation Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne <a href="https://x.com/FP_Champagne/status/1889108709017596043">said on X</a>: "Steel and aluminum tariffs on Canada, the United States' closest ally, would be totally unjustified. Canadian steel and aluminum support key industries in the U.S. from defence, shipbuilding, energy to automotive. This is making North America more competitive and secure. We are consulting with our international partners as we examine the details. Our response will be clear and calibrated."&nbsp;&nbsp;
Experts warn that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43575447/u-s-shoppers-and-businesses-shocked-by-high-ups-and-dhl-import-duty-fees-as-china-tariffs-kick-in">increased import costs</a> could lead to higher prices for goods that rely on steel and aluminum, such as cars, appliances, and construction materials.

Despite these concerns, Trump maintains that the tariffs will drive industrial growth in the U.S., saying, &#8220;It's time for our great industries to come back to America.&#8221; However, some analysts question whether the economic benefits will outweigh the risks, especially if major trading partners retaliate with tariffs of their own.
As the new tariffs take effect, global markets and industries will closely watch how trading partners respond. Countries affected by these policies may seek to negotiate exemptions or implement countermeasures, potentially leading to trade disputes. Additionally, the impact on inflation, manufacturing, and employment within the U.S. will be key factors in assessing the long-term effectiveness of these policies.
For now, businesses, policymakers, and consumers alike are bracing for the changes ahead as Trump&#8217;s tariff strategy sets the stage for another chapter in U.S. trade relations.

'If They Charge Us, We Charge Them' – Trump's Reciprocal Tariff Plan For Steel And Aluminum

The trend of institutional funds and big investment groups buying large tranches of single-family homes has been blamed for exacerbating America's housing affordability crisis. Some states, such as California and New York, have even introduced legislation that would curb or outlaw the practice entirely. Now, Wall Street investors are exiting the market, and a recent study shows this could have a reverse boomerang effect that leaves many American homes overvalued by as much as 35%.
This could create a financial nightmare for millions of American homeowners, whose net worth is often tied to their home's value. <a href="https://www.wsj.com/real-estate/wall-street-thinks-u-s-homes-are-overpriced-1fc1c18d">The Wall Street Journal reported</a> that real estate analytics firm Green Street reached those conclusions after analyzing the property portfolios of some of America's biggest landlords.&nbsp;

It revealed a huge disparity between stock prices for some of America's biggest<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-in-single-family-rentals"> single-family rental</a> landlords, like Invitation Homes (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INVH#NYSE">INVH</a>) and American Homes 4 Rent (NYSE:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AMH"> AMH</a>), and their net asset values, the report said.&nbsp;
The analysis shows that the value of Invitation Homes shares translates to home values of around $310,000 in areas where the home's "current market values" are around $415,000. That large disparity is a cause for concern among Green Street's analysts. The firm's managing director, John Pawlawski, told The Journal, "Share prices are signaling that single-family-home prices are too high and not sustainable."
It's long been speculated that the tremendous buying power of institutional investors, who are known to buy hundreds of homes in single markets at once, is one of the main contributing factors to America's housing affordability crisis. Their simultaneous exit from the market en masse could slow property appreciation rates in many of America's biggest real estate markets.&nbsp;

During their more aggressive buying sprees, institutional landlords relied on deep pockets and lower interest rates to muscle their way into the real estate market, much to the chagrin of first-time buyers who couldn't compete. Meanwhile, those already fortunate enough to be homeowners reaped benefits in the form of faster appreciation.
However, that accelerated appreciation and the post-COVID run-up in interest rates appear to have changed the equation for many institutional landlords. Most institutional landlords target capitalization rates between 5% to 6% to generate<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/real-estate-investment-strategies"> passive income for investors</a>, but current home values and interest rates are putting potential returns in the 4% range. That may explain why they slowed their buying down in Q3 2024.&nbsp;

The downstream effect of a once abundant source of capital suddenly being removed from the market is that sellers and developers can no longer rely on big-pocketed investors to take on huge chunks of housing inventory all at once. That will likely lead to homes staying on the market longer and selling for less, which would inevitably eat into current home valuations when appraisers find cheaper comps in various real estate markets.
Who wins and who loses in Green Street's scenario depends on your place in the real estate market. Would-be buyers will likely cheer the potential price reductions. However, homeowners may lament the continued absence of institutional landlords if Green Street's analysis is accurate, and their properties are overvalued by 35%.

Homeowners Beware: Wall Street Analysts Think Your Property Could Be Overvalued By Almost 40%

Doctors are ditching the hospital grind for corporate boardrooms. And with $275,000 salaries, better hours, and less stress, it's easy to see why.
The rise of chief medical officers in tech, startups, and even companies like Google and Salesforce (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NASDAQ">CRM</a>) is pulling more doctors away from clinical roles. They're trading 12-hour shifts for leadership positions that still <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/partner/health-care/25/01/42901251/the-silent-revenue-killer-in-us-healthcare-and-the-tech-that-is-fighting-back">impact healthcare</a>—just on a bigger scale.
Why Doctors Are Making the Switch
For Dr. Lisa Shah, the shift was about scale. She loved treating patients but left exhausted every day. Losing them took a toll.

</ul>
Now, as CMO at Twin Health, a health tech startup using AI to monitor metabolism, she's helping treat populations instead of just one patient at a time.
&#8220;We&#8217;re seeing a lot of chief medical officers coming on board to grant that clinical, medical legitimacy to whatever products people are developing,&#8221; Chris Myers, a Johns Hopkins professor, told Business Insider.
The COVID-19 pandemic only accelerated the trend. Burnout soared. A Bain &amp; Company survey found that one in four clinicians were considering leaving medicine.
And the pay? Still solid. ZipRecruiter (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZIP#NYSE">ZIP</a>) says CMOs earn around $275,000 per year—comparable with a doctor's salary but without the brutal hours.

A Growing Trend in Health Tech
Health tech is booming. It's expected to hit $1.5 trillion by 2032, growing at nearly 19% per year, <a href="https://rockhealth.com/insights/2023-q1-digital-health-funding-investing-like-its-2019/">according to researchers at Rock Health</a>.&nbsp;
That means more companies need medical expertise—and they're hiring doctors to provide it.
Dr. Guy Maytal spent nearly two decades in psychiatry before joining Forge Health, a startup focused on mental health and substance use treatment.
"I could grumble on the sidelines, or roll up my sleeves and do something about it," he told Business Insider.

The Role of CMOs in Business
Tech giants are getting in on the action. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43616463/salesforce-and-aws-pledge-500m-to-boost-ai-development-in-saudi-arabia">Salesforce</a> hired a CMO in 2019 to focus on employee health. Google added its first chief health officer the same year.
At Uber Health, Dr. Joshua Sclar now works on getting patients to medical appointments and delivering medications.
&#8220;Being a physician, I know what happens when that care is missed,&#8221; he told Business Insider.
But adjusting to corporate life isn't always easy. Dr. Nikole Benders-Hadi, CMO at TalkSpace (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TALK#NASDAQ">TALK</a>), says her biggest challenge was learning to communicate with business leaders who don't speak &#8220;doctor.&#8221;
&#8220;There can be really different end goals when you&#8217;re talking about business objectives versus healthcare objectives,&#8221; she said.

A Lifeline for Overworked Doctors?
For doctors used to on-call shifts, patient loss, and insurance battles, moving to a CMO role reduces emotional toll.
"These jobs seem stressful, but they're not life and death," said Dr. Jonathan Jaffery of the Association of American Medical Colleges.
And while America faces a shortage of 86,000 physicians by 2036, many believe CMOs aren't the problem—they're part of the solution.
Dr. Nate Favini, CMO of Pair Team, a startup connecting Medicaid patients to care, thinks technology will help fix the system.
"There's a massive opportunity to harness tech to deliver better care at a fraction of the cost," he told Business Insider.
Doctors aren't just leaving medicine. They're changing it.

</ul>
The company's stock has had a rough ride, <a href="https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/OXY/occidental-petroleum/stock-price-history">down nearly 32% from its peak in April</a>. Last year alone, it dropped more than 17%, mostly due to weakening oil prices.&nbsp;
Declining crude oil prices have put pressure on energy stocks across the board, and Occidental hasn't been an exception. Even so, Buffett doesn't seem worried.
This isn't the first time Berkshire has jumped in during a downturn. In December, it <a href="https://occidentalpetroleum.gcs-web.com/node/27696/html">scooped up another 8.9 million shares </a>when the market dipped.&nbsp;
Berkshire's ties to Occidental run deeper than just common stock. It played a key role in Occidental's $55 billion purchase of Anadarko Petroleum in 2019, <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/797468/000095015719000504/form425.htm">pumping in $10 billion</a> in exchange for preferred stock.&nbsp;

That deal came with an 8% annual dividend, which means Berkshire is pocketing about $800 million a year just from those shares. On top of that, it holds warrants to buy another 80 million shares at an exercise price of $62.50. Investor's Business Daily said this gives Berkshire even more potential upside if Occidental's stock climbs.
Despite regulatory approval to buy up to 50% of Occidental, Buffett has made it clear he's not planning a takeover.
<a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/warren-buffett-berkshire-hathaway-occidental-petroleum-energy-stock-earnings-call-2022-3">Business Insider reported</a> that he first got interested in the company after reading a transcript of its earnings call and liking what he saw.

By the end of <a href="https://www.oxy.com/news/news-releases/occidental-announces-3rd-quarter-2024-results/">Q3 2024,</a> it had already knocked out $4 billion, reaching about 90% of its short-term debt reduction goal. As mentioned by Oxy, this is part of a broader strategy to shore up the company's financial position.
For investors, dividends are another draw. <a href="https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/stocks/oxy/dividend-history">Occidental offers a 1.8% yield</a>, making it an attractive choice for those looking for steady returns. The company is also making moves in carbon capture technology, which could position it well for the future as energy companies face increasing pressure to reduce emissions. This shift aligns with broader industry trends favoring sustainability.
Occidental's stock closed at <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/data-news/apa-corp-stock-falls-4-0-underperforms-competitors-48270fd7-205fdaac588c">$47.83 on Feb. 12</a>, slipping 1.60% for the day.

Occidental Petroleum Stock Is Down 32% – But Warren Buffett Keeps Buying More. Does He Know Something the Market Doesn't?

The house always wins. While that adage is often used in casinos, it also holds true for one of the biggest gambles in business: restaurants. Ask Gordon Ramsay, the global culinary icon with an empire of 88 restaurants, eight Michelin Stars, and a slew of top-rated TV shows. The Scottish-born chef was recently interviewed on the First We Feast <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43479274/alphabet-q4-earnings-highlights-ai-cloud-youtube-momentum-continues-capex-guidance-sends-shares-lower">YouTube</a> channel. He was unequivocal when host Sean Evans asked about the hidden costs of running a restaurant.
&#8220;Yeah it&#8217;s called rent and labor costs — two big key factors in running a successful business,&#8221; Ramsey said. The media icon, known for lambasting hapless cooks with a tirade of expletives, said, &#8220;Landlords — they win either way. So the more successful you are, the more rent they ask for. The less successful you are, the more demanding they are after the rent.&#8221;

</ul>
Other than the quality of the food, location plays a prime role in determining a restaurant&#8217;s success. Landlords can charge top-of-the-market rents for prime locations. Regardless of the business&#8217;s success or failings, the cost of rent remains constant. Unlike many chefs, however, Ramsay&#8217;s business is bolstered by his star power and global recognition, resulting in a steady stream of customers wanting to eat at his establishments. The strategy has paid off. Ramsay's net worth is around $220 million, according to the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-14279891/world-richest-chef-gordon-ramsay-jamie-oliver-twice-fortune.html">Daily Mail</a>.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Restaurant Empire</h2>
Ramsay&#8217;s knowledge of dealing with landlords is well-founded. His restaurant empire has grown in tandem with his TV success. In 2018, he began opening a series of US-based restaurants, Hell's Kitchen, named after the TV show, one of the most successful being the flagship in Las Vegas. It also made the No. 3 spot on Yelp&#8217;s list of the <a href="https://www.yelp.com/collection/N7fY-Marn9QcxPA6TcFEjA/Most-Photographed-Restaurants-2024">most photographed restaurants</a> of 2024. To date, there are seven Hell's Kitchen restaurants across the US.
In 2019, Ramsay signed a deal with private equity firm Lion Capital to form Gordon Ramsay North America. The deal was worth a reported $100 million, with Ramsay and Lion having an equal stake in the subsidiary. Though initially planned as a venture to open <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/chloesorvino/2019/06/26/gordon-ramsay-plots-100-us-restaurants-with-new-private-equity-deal/#6736b9af7b84">100 restaurants</a> in the United States by 2024, the COVID-19 pandemic dampened those ambitions.
Although Ramsey has claimed to have lost $80 million in revenue in the UK during the pandemic, he appears to have bounced back since. <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14355391/gordon-ramsay-four-new-restaurants-building-london.html">According to the Daily Mail,</a> Ramsay recently opened four new restaurants in the same London building.

Gordon Ramsay Might Be Worth $220 Million, But He Reveals That Landlords Always Have The Upper Hand In The Restaurant Business

Women Grow has announced the formation of the Women Grow Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to advancing women entrepreneurs and professionals in the cannabis industry through advocacy, education and funding. The Foundation will officially launch at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/events/25/02/43591841/brittney-griner-and-ricky-williams-headline-women-grow-2025-leadership-summit-key-event-for-the-cannabis-industry">Women Grow Leadership Summit's</a> opening breakfast on Monday, February 17, 2025, at 8:00 AM at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center.

<ul>
<li>Advocating for policy changes at state and federal levels</li>
<li>Supporting grassroots legislative efforts</li>
<li>Ensuring diverse representation in regulatory discussions</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>Connecting women to grants and investment opportunities</li>

</ul>
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Career Development</h4>
<ul>
<li>Offering mentorship programs</li>
<li>Providing professional training</li>
<li>Assisting with job placement and career advancement</li>
</ul>

<li>Student Membership – $79/year</li>
<li>Corporate Membership – $500/year</li>

Women Grow Foundation: New 501(c)(3) to Provide Advocacy and Resources for Cannabis Entrepreneurs

&nbsp;Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter, now known as X, has shed light on the accelerated growth of Bluesky, attributing it to a mass exodus of users from X.
What Happened: In a recent podcast, Dorsey voiced his belief that users are &#8220;running away from X, rather&nbsp;than running to something on&nbsp;Bluesky&#8221;.
Bluesky, which began&nbsp;as an internal project at&nbsp;Twitter, was launched as a separate&nbsp;public benefit corporation in 2021.&nbsp;The platform witnessed&nbsp;a surge in user signups&nbsp;in November, which coincided with a wave of users departing from&nbsp;X following the election of&nbsp;President Trump, who was financially backed by Elon Musk, the current owner of X.
&#8220;I think people are running away from X, rather than running to something on Bluesky. That&#8217;s not a great way to build a product, unfortunately. We want people that are running to us for a particular thing that they couldn&#8217;t do before,&#8221; as quoted <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/jack-dorsey-people-running-away-from-x-bluesky-growth-2025-2">by </a>Insider he said in the podcast.
Despite stepping down&nbsp;from Bluesky&#8217;s board of directors&nbsp;last year, Dorsey maintains a positive outlook on the platform&#8217;s future. He underscored the platform&#8217;s distinctive feature that allows users to select their own algorithms as a major draw for users.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/04/32099402/jack-dorsey-says-elon-musk-shouldnt-have-bought-twitter-he-should-have-walked-away">Jack Dorsey Says Elon Musk Shouldn&#8217;t Have Bought Twitter: &#8216;He Should Have Walked Away&#8217;</a>
&#8220;Bluesky has built something that I wanted it to build and I&#8217;m excited about, which is this algorithm store, being able to choose your own algorithms,&#8221; he added.
&#8220;That is a reason why people will run to it eventually, and I think why people run to these services eventually because they get more agency and more control — but it&#8217;s not something that people care about right now,&#8221; he said. 
Bluesky&#8217;s CEO, Jay Graber, has reassured that the platform is &#8220;billionaire-proof&#8221; and presents a radically different approach to social media, emphasizing user control and open-source development.
Why It Matters: The rapid growth of Bluesky and the mass exodus from X signify a shift in user preferences in the social media landscape. Users are increasingly seeking platforms that offer greater control and transparency, as evidenced by Bluesky&#8217;s unique feature of allowing users to choose their own algorithms. 
This trend could potentially reshape the future of social media, with platforms like Bluesky leading the way.

Jack Dorsey Says Bluesky's Rapid Expansion Fueled by X Exodus: 'Not a Great Way To Build a Product'

Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) has evolved from a confetti-throwing trading app into a serious financial services platform, with its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43641644/robinhood-q4-earnings-preview-can-company-rebound-from-q3-miss-key-items-to-watch#:~:text=Earnings%20Estimates%3A%20Analysts%20expect%20Robinhood,of%20the%20last%2010%20quarters.">shares quadrupling over the past year as it expands beyond its meme-stock roots</a>.
The company&#8217;s transformation includes launching futures trading, a desktop platform for serious traders, and a credit card program that has attracted 2 million waitlist subscribers, according to the <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/72c164f8-2c25-4499-9bc2-81053278084e">Financial Times</a>. Its Gold card offers 3% cashback, with select clients eligible for a solid gold version.

</ul>
Yet the company is facing challenges in the competitive brokerage landscape. With $195 billion in assets under custody as of November, it remains dwarfed by traditional players like Fidelity and Charles Schwab (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHW#NYSE">SCHW</a>) , which manage $15 trillion and $10 trillion respectively.
Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev set ambitious targets during the company's December investor day, aiming for market leadership in options trading by 2027 and equities by 2029. The company&#8217;s $200 million <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/06/39313872/robinhoods-200m-bitstamp-deal-marks-major-step-in-growing-crypto-business-heres-where-you-">acquisition of crypto exchange Bitstamp</a> in June signals its commitment to digital asset expansion.
&#8220;The maturation of Robinhood has coincided with the maturation of the retail investor,&#8221; Piper Sandler analyst Patrick Moley told the Financial Times.
Trending: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/boxabl"> you can become an investor for $0.80 per share today.</a>
Traditional brokers, however, continue to compete for younger clients. Schwab CEO Rick Wurster recently said on an earnings call that a third of its new retail investors were under 30, and half were under 40.
While Robinhood offers multiple asset classes on one platform—from cryptocurrency to stock options—analysts question whether younger clients will &#8220;graduate&#8221; to larger firms as they accumulate wealth.&nbsp;
The path to product parity with established brokers remains &#8220;very, very long,&#8221; Barclays analyst Benjamin Budish told the Financial Times.
See Also: If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund">7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it</a>?
The company&#8217;s strategy includes expanding beyond trading into broader financial services. Its recent initiatives target more sophisticated investors while maintaining the platform&#8217;s accessibility for newcomers.
&#8220;Maybe it&#8217;s an unfair comparison, because Schwab and Fidelity are very mature platforms,&#8221; Budish said, but added that seeing the company mature makes him &#8220;more willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.&#8221;

Robinhood's Profit Surge Means It May Finally Be A Serious Player On Wall Street

The Justice Department is reportedly in crisis following a wave of resignations and intense pressure from Trump-appointed officials to drop the corruption case against <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/02/43739378/treasury-investigates-doges-payment-system-access-as-concerns-mount" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New York City Mayor </a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/02/43739378/treasury-investigates-doges-payment-system-access-as-concerns-mount" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Eric Adams</a> (D).
The situation escalated on Friday when the department filed a motion to dismiss the case, a move that triggered anger and outrage within the DOJ, <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/02/14/justice-department-crisis-resignations-adams-00204482">reports</a> Politico.
For two consecutive days, acting DOJ No. 2 Emil Bove pressured career attorneys to file court papers seeking to abandon the case.
The pressure campaign culminated in the filing of a motion late Friday, signed by Bove himself, to drop the charges.
This unprecedented move came after several DOJ officials resigned in protest. Lead prosecutor Hagan Scotten, part of the U.S. attorney&#8217;s office in Manhattan, quit, accusing Bove and Trump of striking a deal to drop the charges in exchange for Adams&#8217; support of Trump&#8217;s policy agenda.

Bove&#8217;s actions led to further resignations within the department, including the acting U.S. attorney in Manhattan, Danielle Sassoon, and senior officials from the Criminal Division and Public Integrity Section.
Former U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade revealed that Bove issued an ultimatum to DOJ lawyers to find someone to carry out the order to dismiss the case or face termination, Politico adds.
Critics, including former DOJ veterans, compared the turmoil to the 1973 Saturday Night Massacre, where top officials resigned to resist President Nixon&#8217;s orders.
They described the current crisis as &#8220;chilling,&#8221; citing Bove&#8217;s crude intimidation tactics. DOJ spokespersons did not respond to requests for comment.
Attorney General Pam Bondi defended the decision to drop the case, claiming the charges against Adams were part of a political &#8220;weaponization&#8221; of the department.
The unfolding turmoil underscores the profound divide within the DOJ, as Trump-aligned officials clash with career prosecutors over the future of the Adams case.
