&#8216;I Get So Much S&#x2A;&#x2A;&#x2A; For Telling The Truth,&#8217; Says Kevin O'Leary, But He'd Rather Hurt Feelings Than Watch Families Go Broke
When it comes to Shark Tank, Kevin O'Leary, also known as "Mr. Wonderful," is often seen as a tough, no-nonsense investor who delivers harsh truths. But O'Leary wants people to know that his brutal honesty isn't about being mean – it's about telling the truth to help others avoid financial disasters.
"I'm not the mean shark. I'm the nice shark," O'Leary has <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15TquIpjpEk">said</a>. "That's why they call me Mr. Wonderful." Though his direct approach may ruffle feathers, he insists it's better than sugarcoating reality. He believes false hope can result in wasted time and money – something families and entrepreneurs can't afford.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tough Love on ‘Shark Tank'</h2>
O'Leary's persona on Shark Tank is built on this philosophy. He doesn&#8217;t hesitate to say if he thinks a business idea won't work. While his fellow sharks may offer encouragement, O'Leary cuts straight to the point. He'd rather tell someone their idea is failing than let them sink more money into a doomed venture.
He's unapologetic about his approach, saying, "Somebody's got to tell you the truth." This bluntness has earned him the title of "Most Hated Man on TV," but O'Leary embraces it. "I tell the truth. You'd rather have the truth than the BS, wouldn't you?"
See Also: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $70 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How He Landed on Shark Tank</h2>
O'Leary's reputation for honesty landed him his spot on the show. After selling his company, The Learning Company, for billions, O'Leary started helping private equity firms evaluate deals. His blunt, unfiltered commentary <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/09/40839130/were-looking-for-a-real-a-e-and-youre-in-kevin-oleary-on-how-he-got-his-infamous-shark-tank-role">caught the attention</a> of Shark Tank creator Mark Burnett, who reportedly told him, "We're looking for a real a&#x2A;&#x2A;hole, and you're in." O'Leary didn't need convincing, replying, "That's who I am. I just tell the truth."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Business Over Love?</h2>
O'Leary's commitment to brutal honesty extends beyond the boardroom. He <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puVZxNdy_xo">shared</a> a story about a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41198968/kevin-oleary-told-student-to-pick-business-over-fianc-e-shes-easier-to-replace">young entrepreneur torn</a> between his successful business and his fiancee, who felt neglected. O'Leary's advice on which one is easier to replace – the girlfriend or the business?
For O'Leary, the answer was simple: prioritize the business. He argued that a partner unsupportive of your success might not be the right match. While his advice sparked debate, he stood firm, emphasizing the importance of aligning personal and professional goals. "Find someone who understands your journey. That's how you'll achieve personal freedom," he said.
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>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Honesty Matters</h2>
O'Leary's philosophy is rooted in the belief that financial stability is crucial for families and entrepreneurs. He's seen too many people chase dreams that weren't financially viable, only to end up in debt. By telling the truth – even if it's harsh – he aims to prevent these situations.
"I'm not mean. I just want to keep people from going broke," he explains. For O'Leary, tough love teaches people to value their time, money, and priorities, even if the lesson stings.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Teddy Bear at Heart?</h2>
Despite his sharp words, O'Leary insists he's not as tough as people think. He jokes, "I'm soft and cuddly. I'm a teddy bear." While fans may debate this, there's no denying that O'Leary's honesty has helped countless entrepreneurs rethink their strategies and avoid costly mistakes.
Love him or hate him, Kevin O'Leary's commitment to the truth has made him one of the most recognizable – and polarizing – figures in business. Whether on Shark Tank or in real life, his supposed goal remains to help people succeed without losing everything in the process.

This initiative, titled Development of an Autonomous Robotic Disassembly Process for Applications in Battery Pack Circularity, is focused on addressing the key bottlenecks in the battery supply chain, such as automating battery pack disassembly, improving battery classification, and mitigating cell degradation.
The project aims to create a 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) framework for end-of-life batteries. It will develop automated tools and protocols for disassembling battery packs, diagnosing battery cells, and repurposing these cells into new energy systems. The innovations will help streamline the reuse and refurbishment of valuable battery components, reducing waste and extending battery life.
This collaboration represents a significant step forward in Toyota&#8217;s commitment to sustainability, helping to create a more circular battery supply chain.
The project aligns with the company&#8217;s broader efforts to reduce battery waste, enhance battery lifecycle management, and support the energy transition.
As the demand for EVs grows, this initiative will help ensure that batteries are reused efficiently, minimizing their environmental impact and maximizing their lifespan.

Wall Street inched marginally higher during Wednesday morning trading in New York, with traders remaining on edge ahead of the eagerly anticipated Federal Reserve meeting scheduled for 2 p.m. ET, followed by Fed Chair Jerome Powell&#8216;s press conference <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/12/42554114/all-eyes-on-december-fed-meeting-as-traders-await-interest-rate-projections">at 2:30 p.m. ET.</a>
The Fed is widely expected to reduce interest rates by 25 basis points to a target range of 4.25%-4.50%. Yet, the market&#8217;s reaction is likely to hinge on the updated economic projections and Powell&#8217;s commentary on future policy direction.
The semiconductor sector rebounded strongly, with the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>) climbing 0.9% after a 1.6% dip on Tuesday. Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) surged 3.6%, on track to mark its best single-day gain in a month and to snap a four-day losing streak. The jump followed Nvidia&#8217;s announcement of a new $249 Jetson computer for AI applications, significantly cheaper than its predecessor priced at $499.
In currency markets, the U.S. dollar edged 0.2% higher, with the DXY index breaking above 107, its highest level in three weeks. Treasury yields were steady, with the 10-year yield holding at 4.40% as traders awaited the Fed&#8217;s decision.
Commodities presented a mixed picture: gold slipped 0.4%, while WTI crude gained 1.2%, supported by a larger-than-expected drawdown in U.S. crude inventories.
The cryptocurrency market took a breather after recent strong gains, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) down 1.8%, trading below the $105,000 mark.

<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/">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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Canaan has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Canaan'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://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Canaan's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.13%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

Peering Into Autodesk's Recent Short Interest

Elon Musk, the man behind Tesla, SpaceX and all things futuristic, doesn't just rely on tech to shape his ideas. He's got a reading list that might surprise you. From artificial intelligence to long-term ethics, Musk's brain doesn't just run on tech. Turns out, books play a big role too. And not just any books. We're talking deep stuff. Like What We Owe the Future by William MacAskill. Never heard of it? You're not alone.
Musk called it a <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1554335028313718784">"close match" </a>for his philosophy. What's the vibe? Longtermism. Yeah, it's a real word. MacAskill says it's about <a href="https://twitter.com/willmacaskill/status/1520107719725707264">focusing on the far future</a>, like making choices today that set up humanity for the long haul. Musk's whole Mars thing? Checks out.

But wait – he's not done. Musk is big on artificial intelligence too. Not just building it. Understanding it. Controlling it. Avoiding <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41618261/elon-musk-predicts-ai-will-match-human-capabilities-in-few-years-the-cup-is-80-full-maybe-90">total AI apocalypse. </a>That's where Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies by Nick Bostrom comes in. Musk loves it. Machines smarter than humans? The book says it's coming. Musk says, be ready.
Then there's Our Final Invention: Artificial Intelligence and the End of the Human Era by James Barrat. Dramatic title, right? Musk thinks it's <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/496010572333580289">"worth reading."</a> It's all about AI risks, like what happens when robots think faster than we do. Spoiler: it's not great for humans.
And don't skip Life 3.0: Being Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence by Max Tegmark. Musk's read it. So should you. It's about keeping AI helpful, not harmful. Good luck with that.
These books show how Musk thinks. He's not just about electric cars and rockets. He's about survival. Big survival. Human survival. The kind that spans centuries, not decades. He's playing the long game.

But here's the twist. Musk isn't all doom and gloom. He believes in tech. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42029736/elon-musk-says-ai-will-surpass-doctors-lawyers-after-chatgpt-tops-medical-diagnoses-humans-becoming-biological-backups">Believes in progress. </a>Thinks we can steer the ship. These books? They're like his map. Maybe a little dark, but hey, the guy's aiming for Mars.
Feeling curious? Pick one up. You'll learn. Maybe freak out a little. Maybe feel hopeful. Either way, Musk's bookshelf isn't just for show. It's a glimpse into his brain, a road map for the future. Or, you know, a warning.
What's the takeaway? Musk isn't just about rockets and electric cars. He's a big-picture thinker, constantly trying to understand how today's choices shape tomorrow. Whether it's long-term ethics or the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40764724/elon-musks-xai-eyes-share-of-future-tesla-revenue-in-potential-deal">future of AI,</a> his book recommendations give us a peek into his decisions.
Thinking about diving into these reads? They might not make you the next Musk, but they'll get you thinking like him. After all, the future isn't just about technology – it's about using it wisely. Your move.

Camden Prop Trust's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPT#NYSE">CPT</a>) short percent of float has fallen 4.13% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 1.75 million shares sold short, which is 2.32% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.71 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/">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.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734543010_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Camden Prop Trust 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 Camden Prop Trust'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://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Camden Prop Trust's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.35%, 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/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Today's Biggest Pre-Market Stock Movers: 10 Top Gainers and Losers on Wednesday

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
Richtech Robotics (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/rr-stock-quote/">RR</a>) stock is rocketing higher on Wednesday despite a lack of news concerning the robot maker.



There are no press releases or filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that explain why RR stock is rising today. The same also holds true for analyst coverage of the shares.



However, investors will note that RR stock is seeing heavy trading on Wednesday. This has more than 138 million shares of the stock changing hands as of this writing. That&rsquo;s well above its daily average trading volume of roughly 4.1 million shares. It&rsquo;s float is <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/RR/key-statistics/">only 13.71 million units</a>.



One thing worth keeping in mind is Richtech Robotics&rsquo; status as a penny stock company. That comes from its prior closing price of 37 cents and its market capitalization of $39.047 million.



<h2>What That Means for RR Stock</h2>



Being a penny stock comes with certain vulnerabilities. That includes extra susceptibility to volatility. This can result in wild swings in the price of the company&rsquo;s shares.



As for what&rsquo;s behind it, it could be a couple of things. This movement could be speculative traders buying up shares of RR stock while they are cheap. It may also be an attempt by retail and day traders to pump and dump the company&rsquo;s shares.



No matter the case, investors will want to be careful about investing in RR stock right now. While the shares are up, there&rsquo;s no telling how long they will remain that way without any news to support the rally.



RR stock is up 54.2% as of Wednesday morning.



Investors will want to keep an eye out for more of the most recent stock market news below!



We have all of the latest stock market happenings that traders need to know about on Wednesday! Among that is what has shares of Upstart&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/upst-stock-quote/">UPST</a>), Airbnb&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/abnb-stock-quote/">ABNB</a>) and Super Micro Computer&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/smci-stock-quote/">SMCI</a>) stock on the move today.

</ul>On Penny Stocks and Low-Volume Stocks:&#8239;With only the rarest exceptions, InvestorPlace does not publish commentary about companies that have a market cap of less than $100 million or trade less than 100,000 shares each day. That&rsquo;s because these &ldquo;penny stocks&rdquo; are frequently the playground for scam artists and market manipulators. If we ever do publish commentary on a low-volume stock that may be affected by our commentary, we demand that&#8239;InvestorPlace.com&rsquo;s writers disclose this fact and warn readers of the risks.
