This year's MJBizCon in Las Vegas promises to deliver crucial insights from industry pioneers, with two key panels featuring <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis">Benzinga Cannabis'</a> managing director <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/author/javier-hasse">Javier Hasse</a>, along with renowned voices in the cannabis sector. These sessions will provide actionable knowledge for entrepreneurs and investors navigating the burgeoning cannabis industry, including pivotal discussions on brand building and the rapid evolution of Latin American cannabis markets.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Embracing Your Brand's Unique Magic: How To Build An Iconic Brand In The Ancillary Market</h3>
Date &amp; Time: Wednesday, December 4, 2024, 2:00pm – 2:40pm Location: Room 2 &#8211; Cannabis Business 101
In this session, cannabis branding is the focal point, led by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/08/40140453/how-a-simple-magic-trick-led-to-one-of-the-most-recognized-cannabis-related-brands-in-the-world-">Josh Kesselman</a>, CEO and founder of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/40076950/raw-rolling-papers-are-not-drug-paraphernalia-court-confirms">RAW Rolling Papers</a>, a globally recognized brand rooted in authenticity and simplicity. Known for his unfiltered approach, Kesselman's journey—from opening a smoke shop to founding a major brand—demonstrates the power of authenticity in establishing a loyal customer base.
For those exploring opportunities in the cannabis ancillary market, Kesselman's insights will be invaluable. As he explains, the ancillary market remains a fertile ground for entrepreneurs free from stringent regulations that often accompany cannabis itself. Topics include unconventional marketing approaches and how to leverage technology and security to amplify brand presence. 
Javier Hasse's expertise in content and cannabis market growth adds an additional layer, with his experience shaping media narratives for both Benzinga and <a href="https://elplanteo.com/">El Planteo</a>.

This conversation will provide critical insights into how regulatory and social dynamics shape opportunities in Latin America, a region gaining prominence as both a cultivator and consumer of cannabis. Espinosa's experience with En Volá offers a cultural perspective, while Wilches and Snapp bring expertise in regulatory compliance and policy reform. Attendees will walk away with a nuanced understanding of how to navigate these diverse markets, the importance of local partnerships, and strategies for sustainable growth amid complex regulations.

Donald Trump's 2024 presidential election win is already having an impact on<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/11/41817245/will-trump-be-sentenced-in-hush-money-trial-or-will-his-criminal-problems-go-away"> his pending court cases</a>: a federal judge paused a 2020 election interference prosecution from Special Counsel Jack Smith Friday.
What Happened: Trump's defeat of Vice President Kamala Harris in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41768178/donald-trump-defeats-kamala-harris-to-win-2024-election">the 2024 presidential election</a> will put him back in the White House in January 2025. The election win could make it possible for Trump to avoid courtrooms in the future, with pending cases likely to be dismissed and thrown out.
On Friday, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan paused a case against Trump related to election interference claims. Special Counsel Jack Smith previously charged Trump with trying to remain in the White House after the 2020 election despite losing to President Joe Biden.
Smith filed to pause the proceedings and said he plans to make a filing on Dec. 2 about how the criminal case should proceed now that Trump will be president again, as reported by <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-08/us-special-counsel-asks-court-to-pause-trump-prosecution?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">Bloomberg</a>.
Justice Department policy prevents the current president from being prosecuted, according to the report. Smith said the case will likely be dropped due to this policy.
On Friday, Smith said in a filing that he needs "time to assess this unprecedented circumstance and determine the appropriate course going forward" due to the Department of Justice policy.

</ul>
What's Next: The 2020 election interference isn't the only case impacted by Trump's 2024 win.
Trump was previously found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records in what is known as the hush money trial. Sentencing in the case was delayed several times by Judge Juan Merchan and a sentencing date of Nov. 26 is now in question after Trump's election victory.
As <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/11/41817245/will-trump-be-sentenced-in-hush-money-trial-or-will-his-criminal-problems-go-away">Benzinga reported Thursday</a>, legal experts are skeptical that Merchan would still carry out sentencing of the future sitting president. Merchan also plans to issue a ruling by Nov. 12 on Trump's legal team's request to toss out the guilty verdict after the Supreme Court issued partial immunity to former presidents earlier this year.
Trump faces potential punishment of up to four years in prison for each guilty verdict, with a limit of 20 total years in prison. While prison time is unlikely due to his lack of a previous criminal record, Trump could receive probation or home confinement.
If Merchan chooses to continue with sentencing he would be tasked with deciding whether to defer the sentencing to 2029 when Trump is out of the White House, delay Trump's punishment until 2029 or try to place the punishment on Trump while he's in office.
A classified documents case against Trump saw the former president charged in June 2023. The case, which was also brought against Trump by Smith, is also expected to be dismissed after the election result, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-08/can-trump-go-to-jail-after-2024-election-win-whats-next-in-his-criminal-cases?itm_source=record&amp;itm_campaign=Trump_Legal_Troubles&amp;itm_content=What%27s_Next-1&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">reported</a>.
A case against Trump in the state of Georgia saw charges brought against the former president in August 2023 related to conspiracy in the 2020 election. Trump's legal team is preparing for an argument to dismiss the case due to his return to the White House.
Among the reasons legal experts expect the cases to be dropped against Trump is a fear of retaliation against the judges and lawyers involved in cases.
On Thursday, Trump ally Mike Davis issued a warning to New York Attorney General Letitia James during an appearance on "The Benny Show" podcast.
"I dare you to try to continue your lawfare against President Trump in his second term," Davis said, as <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/11/07/us-news/trump-ally-mike-davis-warns-ny-ag-letitia-james-to-back-off-president-elect/">reported </a>by the New York Post. "Listen her, sweetheart, we're not messing around this time and we will put your fat a&#8211; in prison for conspiracy against rights. I promise you that."
James won a $454 million civil fraud judgment in the state of New York related to Trump and the Trump Organization's business dealings in the state. On Wednesday, James said she would "use the rule of law to fight back" against Trump. The president-elect has appealed the ruling in New York.

Trump 2020 Election Interference Case Paused: How 2024 Election Win Is Impacting President-Elect's Legal Troubles

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) shares are trading higher Friday after climbing new highs during the week. Here&#8217;s what <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PLTR/news">you need to know.</a>
The Details: On Monday, Palantir <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41730179/palantir-q3-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-customers-up-39-raises-guidance-results-driven-by-unrele">reported third-quarter revenue</a> of $725.52 million, surpassing the $701.13 million estimate and earnings per share of 6 cents, beating expectations of 4 cents. Total revenue rose 30% year-over-year, with U.S. commercial revenue up 54% and U.S. government revenue up 40%. CEO Alex Karp added that the company's growth is "driven by unrelenting AI demand that won't slow down."
Shares<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41746288/palantir-stock-is-hitting-new-highs-whats-going-on"> continued to rise </a>after some analysts commented on Palantir's expanding U.S. customer base and AI product demand. Analysts at Wedbush, Mizuho and DA Davidson all raised their price targets, with Wedbush's Dan Ives citing Palantir's "robust" results and AI expansion. 
The stock hit another all-time high on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41782430/palantir-shares-are-hitting-new-highs-on-wednesday-whats-going-on">Wednesday </a>after Donald Trump's presidential win sparked market optimism on potential policy shifts, which could favor defense and AI sectors. Palantir, up 25% over the past week, was seen as a potential beneficiary of a Trump administration&#8217;s defense and intelligence priorities.
Palantir shares also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41808861/whats-going-on-with-palantir-stock-thursday">faced early pressure</a> after Jefferies downgraded the stock from Hold to Underperform, citing valuation concerns. However, the stock bounced back intraday Thursday after Palantir announced a partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Anthropic to bring advanced AI capabilities to U.S. defense and intelligence agencies. The partnership will integrate Anthropic&#8217;s Claude AI models into Palantir's AI Platform for secure government use.
PLTR Price Action: Palantir shares were up 4.60% at $58.44 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

A Glimpse Into The Expert Outlook On Dianthus Therapeutics Through 4 Analysts

Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) is reportedly considering the sale of Jeppesen, a navigation unit it acquired in 2000, to reduce its $58 billion debt. <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-08/boeing-is-exploring-possible-6-billion-sale-for-jeppesen-unit?srnd=homepage-americas">Bloomberg reported </a>that the company is working with an adviser on a sale that could bring in more than $6 billion. 
The unit, which provides navigation tools to airlines, has already attracted interest from many private equity firms.
The possible divestment follows CEO Kelly Ortberg's review of Boeing's assets to identify units that may no longer align with the company&#8217;s focus on core commercial aircraft production. Ortberg said in an earnings call that he's looking at "whether a business or product fits with the long-term strategy or whether it would be better off someplace else."
Ortberg also confirmed that Boeing will pay employees furloughed during the seven-week strike in Seattle, according to a <a href="https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/company-news/2024/11/08/boeing-ceo-says-furloughed-workers-will-be-paid-for-lost-time/#:~:text=%E2%80%9CAs%20we%20navigated%20through%20the,first%20weeks%20of%20his%20tenure.">BNN Bloomberg report.</a> "We want to acknowledge your support by returning your lost pay," the CEO said in an internal memo. 
However, the company plans more job cuts to reduce costs. Boeing has already been cutting costs with hiring freezes and corporate travel reductions to handle its cash shortage.
BA Price Action: Boeing shares were up 0.48% at $151.70 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Salesforce, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) shares are trading higher Friday. The company revealed plans to hire over 1,000 employees to support the sales push for its new AI product, Agentforce, which targets the growing demand for AI-driven automation across various business functions. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41607435/salesforce-launches-agentforce-redefining-ai-in-business-with-autonomous-solutions">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-08/salesforce-to-hire-1-000-salespeople-for-ai-agent-push">According to Bloomberg</a>, Agentforce is designed to help companies set up AI agents capable of performing tasks like customer service, marketing and order management autonomously. The product integrates with Salesforce&#8217;s Customer 360 platform, making it part of the company's broader shift toward AI-powered business automation. Initial pricing for Agentforce is about $2 per agent conversation and Salesforce reports positive initial customer feedback.
CEO Marc Benioff described the hiring expansion as a response to "amazing momentum" for the generative AI tool, noting positive customer feedback since its launch two weeks ago.
In addition to these new hires, Salesforce's stock may have also gained momentum due to a "Golden Cross" technical signal, which indicates that its short-term (50-day) moving average has moved above its long-term (200-day) moving average.
Benioff commented on the move, highlighting the "incredible momentum" behind Agentforce and expressing confidence in the company's ability to capture new growth opportunities in AI.

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img decoding="async" src="https://thearorareport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/2024-11-08_08h12_07.png" alt="" style="width:624px" /></figure>
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Nvidia As An Indicator</h4>
Please <a href="https://thearorareport.com/chart-analysis-stock-trump-hopium-nvidia-indicator-china-stimulus-nvda-mc-11082024">click here</a> for an enlarged chart of NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>).
Note the following:
<ul>
<li>This article is about the big picture, not an individual stock.&nbsp; The chart of NVDA stock is being used to illustrate the point.</li>
<li>The chart shows that NVDA has broken out.</li>
<li>RSI on the chart shows that NVDA has room to run.</li>
<li>Nvidia will report earnings on Nov. 20 after the market close.&nbsp; Historically, NVDA stocks sees heavy buying before earnings. As full disclosure, in addition to the core position in NVDA, which is long from $12.55, The Arora Report also has a trade around position in NVDA in The Arora Report&#8217;s ZYX Buy.</li>
<li>The chart shows the top support zone.&nbsp; This top support zone is very significant as an indicator for the entire market, not just NVDA stock.</li>
<li>For the time being, as a simple short cut, investors can use Nvidia as an indicator.&nbsp; As long as NVDA stock does not break below the top support zone, investors' stance towards the stock market should be bullish.&nbsp; The short cut is helpful but consider relying on the highly sophisticated, adaptive, <a href="https://thearorareport.com/ALLOCATION%2BMODELS.htm">ZYX Asset Allocation Model </a>with inputs in 10 categories.</li>
<li>The Arora Report call is to scale in by buying stocks and ETF's, not just NVDA, as they dip in the buy zones until a time when Trump hopium comes close to meeting reality.</li>
<li>In The Arora Report analysis, the time to take profits will be just before the Trump hopium comes close to meeting reality.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>The stock market is moving based on the difference between Wall Street positioning going into the election and the election result.&nbsp; In The Arora Report analysis, the main cause of the rip roaring rally after the election is two-fold:
<ul>
<li>Wall Street was not positioned for the margin of Trump's victory.</li>
<li>Wall Street was not positioned for a potential red sweep.&nbsp; As of this writing, there is a high probability of a red sweep, but it is not yet confirmed.&nbsp; A red sweep will take place if Republicans take control of the House.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Based on anecdotal evidence, it is difficult for many investors to put their arms around the current rally and The Arora Report's call to buy the dips.&nbsp; </li>
<li>In the early trade, the Trump rally is taking a breather for two reasons:
<ul>
<li>Investors' disappointment from China stimulus first impacted Asian markets, then moved to Europe, and now to the U.S.&nbsp; See the section below for details.</li>
<li>In the very very short term, the stock market is overbought.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>The University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment &#8211; Prelim will be released at 10am ET.&nbsp; It may be market moving.</li>
<li>In The Arora Report analysis, consumer sentiment has moved up significantly after Trump's election.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Big China Stimulus</h4>
China has announced a big stimulus of $1.4T.&nbsp; The stimulus will provide swaps for debt ridden local governments' off balance sheet liabilities.&nbsp; The size of the stimulus is greater than the consensus.&nbsp; For this reason, it should have been positive, but in The Arora Report analysis, investors are reacting negatively because the stimulus did not include any fiscal measures to boost the economy.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Magnificent Seven Money Flows</h4>
In the early trade, money flows are neutral in Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).
In the early trade, money flows are negative in Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Alphabet Inc Class C (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), and NVDA.
In the early trade, money flows are negative in SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>).
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Momo Crowd And Smart Money In Stocks</h4>
Investors can gain an edge by knowing money flows in SPY and QQQ.&nbsp; Investors can get a bigger edge by knowing when smart money is buying stocks, gold, and oil.&nbsp; The most popular ETF for gold is SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>).&nbsp; The most popular ETF for silver is iShares Silver Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLV#NYSE">SLV</a>).&nbsp; The most popular ETF for oil is United States Oil ETF (ASCA:USO).
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Bitcoin</h4>
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) is being bought on hope that whales will take advantage of low liquidity during the weekend to run bitcoin up over $80,000.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Protection Band And What To Do Now</h4>
It is important for investors to look ahead and not in the rearview mirror.  The proprietary protection band from The Arora Report is very popular.  The protection band puts all of the data, all of the indicators, all of the news, all of the crosscurrents, all of the models, and all of the analysis in an analytical framework that is easily actionable by investors.
Consider continuing to hold good, very long term, existing positions. Based on individual risk preference, consider a protection band consisting of cash or Treasury bills or short-term tactical trades as well as short to medium term hedges and short term hedges. This is a good way to protect yourself and participate in the upside at the same time.
You can determine your protection bands by adding cash to hedges.&nbsp; The high band of the protection is appropriate for those who are older or conservative. The low band of the protection is appropriate for those who are younger or aggressive.&nbsp; If you do not hedge, the total cash level should be more than stated above but significantly less than cash plus hedges.
A protection band of 0% would be very bullish and would indicate full investment with 0% in cash.&nbsp; A protection band of 100% would be very bearish and would indicate a need for aggressive protection with cash and hedges or aggressive short selling.
It is worth reminding that you cannot take advantage of new upcoming opportunities if you are not holding enough cash.&nbsp; When adjusting hedge levels, consider adjusting partial stop quantities for stock positions (non ETF); consider using wider stops on remaining quantities and also allowing more room for high beta stocks.&nbsp; High beta stocks are the ones that move more than the market.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Traditional 60/40 Portfolio</h4>
Probability based risk reward adjusted for inflation does not favor long duration strategic bond allocation at this time.
Those who want to stick to traditional 60% allocation to stocks and 40% to bonds may consider focusing on only high quality bonds and bonds of five year duration or less.&nbsp; Those willing to bring sophistication to their investing may consider using bond ETFs as tactical positions and not strategic positions at this time.
The Arora Report is known for its accurate calls. The Arora Report correctly called the big artificial intelligence rally before anyone else, the new bull market of 2023, the bear market of 2022, new stock market highs right after the virus low in 2020, the virus drop in 2020, the DJIA rally to 30,000 when it was trading at 16,000, the start of a mega bull market in 2009, and the financial crash of 2008.

Looking At Fair Isaac's Recent Unusual Options Activity

SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEDG#NASDAQ">SEDG</a>) reported worse-than-expected third-quarter results on Wednesday and analysts are weighing in on what is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41806208/solaredges-tough-q3-revenue-miss-multi-billion-impairment-bleak-forecast-more">next for the company. </a>
Truist on SEDG: Truist analyst Jordan Levy highlighted prior commentary from Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENPH#NASDAQ">ENPH</a>) on weakness in the European market as forewarning for SolarEdge's disappointing results and guidance. 
SolarEdge expects revenue of between $180 million and $200 million for the fourth quarter, below the consensus of $308.66 million. 
Levy said market weakness is cyclical and sees SolarEdge as a "show-me story" over the coming quarters.&nbsp;
Truist reiterated its Hold rating on SolarEdge and lowered its price target from $20 to $15.&nbsp;

BMO on SEDG: BMO Capital Markets analyst Ameet Thakkar pointed to Solar Edge's "disappointing update" and "meaningfully" lowered the price target on the stock from $21 to $12 as the European market "has gone from bad to worse."&nbsp;
The BMO analyst maintained a Market Perform rating and said SolarEdge should see growth alongside solar demand.&nbsp;
However, Thakkar said the company's management leaves him cautious and he would like to see "more urgency" in the rate of change to the company's cost structure and operational expenditures.&nbsp;
"At this point, given the already over 80% ytd decline in company share price, high short interest, and SEDG belatedly taking more decisive actions to clear its product channel in Europe we await to see if any progress emerges," the BMO analyst wrote.
SEDG Price Action: According to data from Benzinga Pro, SolarEdge Technologies shares are down 9.74% at $13.43 at the time of publication Friday.&nbsp;

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)'s stock after Donald Trump's election as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/41813356/elon-musks-net-worth-soars-by-26-5-billion-in-single-day-after-tesla-stock-surges-post-trump-vic">the 47th U.S. president.</a>
According to Forbes&#8217; Real-Time Billionaires List, Musk&#8217;s net worth reached $305 billion — distantly followed by Oracle Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NASDAQ">ORCL</a>) co-founder Larry Ellison at around $231 billion, and Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>)'s Jeff Bezos, who trails at approximately $225 billion.
Musk is now more than $100 billion richer than Meta Platform Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
The electric carmaker's shares rocketed nearly 30% over the week, driving the company's market capitalization beyond the $1 trillion mark and delivering Musk a massive windfall.
Other than deriving much of his wealth from Tesla, Musk has also diversified his fortune in SpaceX, founded in 2002, which is worth nearly $210 billion based on a tender offer launched during the second half of 2024. Musk owns an estimated 42% stake.
Musk bought Twitter in a $44 billion (enterprise value) deal in 2022, although Forbes estimates that the social media company, which he renamed X, is worth nearly 70% less <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/10/41603930/trump-vs-musk-djt-stock-worth-more-than-latest-x-valuation-thanks-to-2024-election-run-up">as of August 2024</a>.
Musk owns an estimated 60% of xAI, which he founded in 2023. Private investors valued the company at $24 billion in May 2024.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Why Trump's Victory Was A Big Win For Musk</h3>
Trump's stance on tariffs, specifically on vehicles imported from Europe and China, could potentially make it tougher for foreign carmakers to compete in the U.S. market — an advantage that could drive up Tesla's market share on its home turf.
A Trump presidency would likely mean the end of EV subsidies and tax credits during Tesla&#8217;s second-quarter earnings call.
The impact would be slight for Tesla and devastating for its competitors. &#8220;But long term probably actually helps Tesla, would be my guess, yes,&#8221; Musk has said.
Musk has also been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41766808/mark-cuban-congratulates-trump-musk-before-the-election-is-called-says-they-won-fair-and-square">an active political backer</a> for Trump's 2024 campaign, reportedly donating over $130 million to support his re-election efforts.
Trump&#8217;s victory speech didn't shy away from showing gratitude either. 
As Forbes highlighted, Trump took nearly 4 minutes in his first speech to praise Musk, calling him a "super genius" and highlighting Tesla's achievements, from SpaceX's rocket launches to the expanding satellite internet network.
"A star is born — Elon!" Trump declared.
Musk has expressed enthusiasm about heading a proposed Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.), where he'd lead efforts to trim wasteful spending from the federal budget. Trump touted Musk as the ideal candidate to serve as the "Secretary of Cost-Cutting," potentially overseeing an ambitious plan to slash $2 trillion in federal expenses.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Musk&#8217;s Wealth Outpaces 475 S&amp;P 500 Companies</h3>
To put his wealth into perspective, Musk could theoretically buy out companies in the S&amp;P 500 with valuations smaller than his own, a list as big as 474 names.
Major corporations like Chevron (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>), valued at $287 billion, and The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>) at $276 billion, are now "within reach" for Musk's personal fortune.
With $305 billion, Musk could also theoretically acquire three companies in the $100 billion range, like Prologis (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLD#NYSE">PLD</a>), Deere &amp; Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DE#NYSE">DE</a>) and Lam Research Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>), with cash to spare.
