Even after a sharp cooldown, the meme coin sector refuses to die quietly. With Fartcoin (CRYPTO: FARTCOIN) in the focus, traders say the meme coin mania might be entering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-crypto-meme-coins">stronger, more refined phase</a>.
What Happened: According to prominent crypto influencer <a href="https://x.com/waleswoosh/status/1912517666700497178">Wale Swoosh</a>, meme coins may be down from their highs, but they're far from out. 
Solana meme coins continue to generate massive volume roughly $2 billion daily on decentralized exchanges and $30 million in weekly NFT volume. 
While that&#8217;s down from the $22 billion peak, it&#8217;s still a sign of sustained interest.
Swoosh also highlighted the rise of LaunchLab, a launchpad by Solana's top decentralized exchange Raydium, as a possible catalyst for a sector revival. 
He draws parallels with NFTs: while volumes faded post-peak, the space didn't die—it evolved. 
The same may happen with meme coins: fewer, better projects with stronger infrastructure and better user experience.
Swoosh argues that meme coins are entering a more mature cycle, with smarter traders, better tooling, and a more discerning audience. The hype-driven frenzy might be over, but that could make room for quality projects to shine.
He adds: "The meme coin sector is gearing up for a second spring—less chaos, more structure and the same wild upside potential."

What's Next: Crypto trader Koala says he doesn't <a href="https://x.com/trader_koala/status/1912536703954481422">believe</a> legacy memes like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu will ever revisit their all-time highs, but he still sees potential for 200% to 300% gains from current levels. 
He expects the market to shift from broad-based euphoria to a more selective focus, where only a few meme coins dominate based on actual mindshare, not just noise.
In that environment, Fartcoin is shaping up as a potential breakout leader. With Bitcoin threatening a move above $90,000, some traders believe Fartcoin could ride the wave to a new all-time high before eventually passing the baton to the next viral coin.
CoinGecko data shows the total meme coin market cap sits at $48 billion, down 2.3% in the past 24 hours and off from recent $50 billion levels amid broader market weakness. 
Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) is down 10%, Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) is down 8%, Trump (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>) dropped 30% after a sharp rally to new highs.
Still, both DOGE and SHIB maintain strong communities, and traders anticipate a near-term rebound, with SHIB buoyed by a <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44835956/shiba-inu-burns-60-million-shib-in-a-single-transaction-what-is-going-on">spike in burn rate</a> and positive on-chain metrics, and DOGE seeing <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44818627/dogecoin-whales-are-accumulating-is-a-breakout-imminent">increased whale accumulation</a> ahead of a potential bullish move.

Carlyle Group and Bluebird Bio shares are trading lower. The company, along with SK Capital Partners, announced that the Beacon merger subsidiary has extended the expiration date to acquire the outstanding shares of Bluebird Bio.

In an environment where conventional income strategies are being pushed to their limits by persistent rate volatility and ambiguity, Simplify Asset Management is betting big on innovation. 
On Tuesday, the company introduced two <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">actively managed ETFs</a>, Simplify Barrier Income ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBAR#NYSE">SBAR</a>) and Simplify Target 15 Distribution ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XV#NYSE">XV</a>), designed to provide investors structured, high-yielding income by leveraging the use of barrier put options.
In an era when fixed income returns continue to be squeezed and equity markets are volatile, these new funds are intended to offer stable income streams with well-defined downside risk — a hard-to-find combination in the current investing environment.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44812438/exclusive-argents-new-etfs-arent-chasing-ai-or-meme-stocks-heres-what-theyre-buying-instead">Exclusive: Argent&#8217;s New ETFs Are Not Chasing AI Or Meme Stocks, Here&#8217;s What They&#8217;re Buying Instead</a>
David Berns, Simplify&#8217;s CIO and co-founder, said the ETFs provide a degree of transparency and control that products simply cannot.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">The Barrier Strategy</h1>
Both SBAR and XV write barrier put options, a derivative that exposes the writer to downside only in the event a certain level is violated, on a worst-of basket consisting of ETFs representing U.S. large-cap, small-cap and growth stocks. The &#8220;worst-of&#8221; strategy increases the potential of the option premium, which is subsequently redistributed to investors in the form of monthly income.
The funds' options are structured with predefined barrier levels, allowing investors to better understand their risk exposure upfront. Between expirations, fund prices will still fluctuate based on the options&#8217; market value, but actual downside losses are only realized if the worst-performing index crosses the barrier.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Inside The Funds</h1>
SBAR provides monthly income by blending U.S. Treasuries (with a target portfolio duration of less than two years) and a laddered 30-barrier put strategy. The objective is to provide higher yield relative to traditional bonds, with specified downside risk.
XV seeks a targeted 15% annualized rate of distribution, distributed monthly. Similar to SBAR, it also holds short-term Treasuries but dynamically adjusts barrier levels to back the income objective — in effect, presenting a more elastic income approach.
Both have a net expense ratio of 0.75% and are conceived as ongoing products, whose options are rolled in a systematic fashion, such that long-term exposure is provided without timing worries.
The launches are part of a larger shift in investor priorities — from pursuing returns to pursuing steady income and clearer risk transparency. With this expansion, Simplify broadens its line of products to over 35 ETFs and almost <a href="https://www.simplify.us/etfs">$7 billion</a> in assets under management, solidifying its position as a prime alternative ETF strategy provider.

Before he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/01/43101102/elon-musk-the-richest-man-in-the-world-is-estimated-to-earn-over-23-million-every-single-hour-of-the-day-heres-how-hes-spending-it">became the world's richest man</a>, Elon Musk was publicly defending himself against headlines about his personal life — and fighting a legal bill that would make most billionaires wince.
In 2010, Musk published a <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/correcting-the-record-about-my-divorce-2010-7">personal essay in Business Insider</a> responding to what he called "inaccuracies" surrounding his divorce from author Justine Musk. The piece was blunt, sharply structured, and divided by biting section headings like "Dangerous Clichés," "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?" and "How Many Lawyers Does it Take to Screw in a…?"

<li>The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?</li>
</ul>
One of the most widely repeated claims at the time was that Musk had gone broke. Musk was quick to set the record straight: "I never said in any court documents that I was ‘broke' or even that I lacked considerable assets."
What he explained <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/01/42805245/elon-musk-nearly-sold-struggling-tesla-to-google-for-6-billion-but-when-he-no-longer-needed-a-savior-the-deal-was-called-off">instead was a cash flow crisis</a>. "Rather than allow Tesla to die," he wrote, "I committed almost all my cash reserves to the company, leaving a few million dollars to cover living expenses." That may sound like plenty — but not when you're paying two sets of divorce lawyers under California law.
"What caught me by surprise, and forced me to seek emergency loans from friends," Musk wrote, "were the enormous legal fees I had to pay my ex-wife's divorce lawyers." According to him, those bills added up to $4 million, or roughly $170,000 per month for two years.

At the time, Musk was running both Tesla and SpaceX, raising five young sons, and finalizing his divorce — all while preparing to marry actress Talulah Riley, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42878599/elon-musk-married-and-divorced-the-same-woman-twice-paid-her-over-20-million-in-settlements-she-refers-to-him-as-perfect-ex-husband">whom he'd later divorce twice</a>. He said he owned "no homes (not even my residence at this point), yachts or expensive artwork," and dressed mostly in jeans and T-shirts.&nbsp;
As for the settlement? According to Musk, the marital agreement entitled Justine to around $20 million after tax. But before the trial, he said he offered her more than double — roughly the pre-tax equivalent of $80 million — and even offered to make charitable donations in her name. "Justine said no to this offer," he wrote, "and continued to insist on receiving ownership in Tesla and SpaceX."
On May 3, 2010, a California judge ruled the marital agreement was valid and enforceable. Musk's motion for non-suit was granted within hours. Even assuming all of Justine's claims were true, the judge said, she would still lose.
Musk's final line in the essay? "Justine has decided to appeal…"
"In the 21st century," he wrote, "privacy just doesn't exist." But back then, he made sure <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44654927/elon-musk-said-id-rather-stick-a-fork-in-my-hand-than-talk-about-his-life-but-he-did-just-to-deny-he-abandoned-his-wife-for-a-young-actress">his side of the story did</a>.

Nova shares are trading lower after B of A Securities cut its price target on the stock from $310 to $248.

In the current session, MGM Resorts International Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MGM#NYSE">MGM</a>) is trading at $29.29, after a 1.41% drop. Over the past month, the stock decreased by 11.41%, and in the past year, by 31.11%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1744822835_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>How Does MGM Resorts International P/E Compare to Other Companies?</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
MGM Resorts International has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 46.94 of the Hotels, Restaurants &amp; Leisure industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1744822835_1.png" alt="Guage" />

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

Market Whales and Their Recent Bets on BKNG Options

Philip Morris Intl's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PM#NYSE">PM</a>) short percent of float has fallen 32.56% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 8.98 million shares sold short, which is 0.58% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.49 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Philip Morris Intl Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1744822828_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Philip Morris Intl has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Philip Morris Intl's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Philip Morris Intl's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.90%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>
