Montenegro&#8217;s Minister of Justice, Bojan Božović on Friday authorized the extradition of Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon to the United States, concluding months of legal wrangling over competing extradition requests from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40121915/us-loses-out-to-south-korea-over-extradition-of-terraform-labs-do-kwon">U.S. and South Korea</a>.
What Happened: The <a href="https://www.gov.me/clanak/do-kwon-ce-biti-izrucen-sad-u">ruling</a> follows a decision earlier this week by Montenegro's Constitutional Court, which denied Kwon's appeal against a September Supreme Court decision.
That decision nullified his transfer to South Korea and delegated the final extradition decision to the justice minister.
In its announcement, the Ministry of Justice stated that it had reviewed all relevant factors, including the gravity of the alleged offenses, the location where the crimes were committed and the sequence of extradition requests.
Other considerations included Kwon's nationality and the potential for subsequent extradition to another country.
Kwon is a central figure in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/22/08/28505136/i-didnt-sleep-for-8-days-terra-luna-founder-do-kwon-comes-out-of-hiding-explains-his-side-">the 2022 collapse</a> of the algorithmic stablecoin TerraUSD (CRYPTO: USTC) and its sister cryptocurrency Luna (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">LUNC</a>), which caused billions of dollars in losses to investors globally.
The incident led to a coordinated international manhunt involving South Korean authorities, U.S. prosecutors and Interpol.
The crypto executive was arrested in Montenegro in March 2023 for attempting to travel with forged documents.

Why It Matters: Since his release from prison earlier this year, Kwon has faced an extradition stalemate as courts weighed requests from the U.S. and South Korea.
The High Court in Montenegro initially ruled in February 2024 to extradite Kwon to the U.S. to face charges related to the Terra-Luna collapse. 
However, that decision was reversed in March, favoring extradition to South Korea instead. Months of legal appeals and inconsistent rulings followed, further delaying the process.
Kwon's legal team had pushed for extradition to his home country of South Korea, where financial criminals typically face maximum sentences ranging from 30 to 40 years. 
In contrast, the U.S. legal system allows for consecutive sentencing, potentially resulting in significantly longer prison terms.
The extradition saga has also sparked political controversies in Montenegro. 
Former Justice Minister Andrej Milovic accused Prime Minister Milojko Spajić of influencing the extradition process in favor of South Korea due to alleged financial connections with Kwon.

Terra Luna Co-Founder Do Kwon To Be Extradited To The US: Report

ChatGPT parent OpenAI is exploring <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41038183/openais-restructure-from-non-profit-to-potential-150b-for-profit-sam-altman-could-get-equity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">restructuring its corporate framework</a> in 2025, transforming it into a <a href="https://openai.com/index/why-our-structure-must-evolve-to-advance-our-mission/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Delaware Public Benefit Corporation</a> (PBC).
Sam Altman&#8217;s artificial intelligence company initially focused on advancing AI without financial constraints. However, by 2019, it became clear that developing large-scale language models required substantial investments, prompting the company to introduce a hybrid structure.
OpenAI raised $1 billion from Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>). The company highlighted the need for &#8220;hundreds of billions of dollars&#8221; in capital to sustain its mission.

The current valuation of $157 billion and competition from Microsoft, Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), and Anthropic, prompted OpenAI to issue traditional equity through its new structure, CNBC <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/12/27/openai-needs-more-capital-than-wed-imagined-moves-to-for-profit.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Transitioning to a PBC will allow OpenAI to attract conventional equity investments, while the nonprofit arm will focus on charitable initiatives in education, healthcare, and science.
Under the proposed model, OpenAI&#8217;s nonprofit will hold a significant interest in the for-profit PBC, valued by independent financial advisors.
However, OpenAI&#8217;s move has sparked opposition from co-founder Elon Musk, who has filed legal challenges against the restructuring.
Musk, owner of OpenAI&#8217;s rival xAI, charged OpenAI of ditching its nonprofit roots. Internal challenges have also emerged, with key executives like Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati and Research Chief Bob McGrew exiting the company.
Developing and scaling generative AI models like ChatGPT requires massive resources, including high-powered processors from Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and cloud infrastructure provided by key backer Microsoft. OpenAI expects $5 billion in losses on $3.7 billion in revenue in 2024.
Interestingly, OpenAI&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/12/42499756/musk-backed-for-profit-direction-for-openai-leaked-emails-say" rel="noreferrer noopener">recently revealed old emails</a> from Musk&nbsp;that depicted his advocacy for a&nbsp;profit-making business model.
Musk&#8217;s AI company, xAI, announced on Monday that it raised $6 billion in funding, marking its second <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/12/42665538/elon-musks-xai-secures-6-billion-in-series-c-funding-to-expand-colossus-supercomputer-attracts-investments-from-nvidia-and-blackrock" rel="noreferrer noopener">major funding round in 2024</a>.
The investment features strategic backing from Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Advanced Micro Devices, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>).
xAI plans to use the funding to expand its Colossus supercomputer, which currently runs on 100,000 Nvidia Hopper GPUs. The company aims to double its capacity to 200,000 GPUs.

Check Out What Whales Are Doing With ZIM

As the global race for Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) adoption intensifies, Anthony Pompliano, founder and CEO of Professional Capital Management, has issued a stark warning: if the United States does not prioritize Bitcoin, it risks falling behind as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42677932/russian-firms-adopt-bitcoin-for-global-trade-in-response-to-western-sanctions-should-be-expanded-and-developed-further">other nations take the lead</a>.
What Happened: In an <a href="https://x.com/APompliano/status/1872356968012349474">interview</a> with Fox Business on Thursday, Pompliano emphasized that various countries are already actively mining, buying and holding Bitcoin, and that the U.S. needs to get in the game to remain competitive in the global digital economy.
Pompliano drew a parallel between the strategic acquisition of physical assets, like the Panama Canal and Greenland, and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42601193/senator-lummis-introduces-strategic-bitcoin-reserve-proposal">strategic acquisition</a> of digital assets like Bitcoin.
He highlighted that Bitcoin&#8217;s limited supply makes it a scarce digital resource that other nations are already leveraging. 
&#8220;Owning Bitcoin is digital real estate. There&#8217;s only 21 million that will ever exist,&#8221; Pompliano stated. 
He stressed the necessity for the US to determine whether they will lead or be left behind in this emerging technology.
&#8220;We know other countries are mining, buying, holding Bitcoin, and so are we going to let these other countries be the leader, or are we gonna be the leader? And I think that&#8217;s really the decision they have to make," he said.
Pompliano also addressed the common concern about Bitcoin&#8217;s volatility and the psychological challenge of buying at higher prices. He likened it to past hesitancy about investing in the S&amp;P 500. 
&#8220;If you go back to the 1980s or 1990s, buying the S&amp;P 500 was real scary, but you were a genius if you did it in hindsight.&#8221; 
He advised that the best time to buy was yesterday, and waiting will likely only lead to missed opportunities.
While noting the excitement in the crypto community about the new administration, Pompliano clarified that the industry is simply growing up, noting that these companies are behaving just like other large companies, including donating to the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump.

Why It Matters: Pompliano also touched on the role of government involvement in Bitcoin, acknowledging the potential for criticism if politicians buy it.
He pointed out that the U.S. already engages in similar practices with other assets, noting &#8220;we have a president that&#8217;s currently in office and also politicians who are literally day trading assets. And so it&#8217;s no different.&#8221; 
He believes the main story of 2025 is the integration of crypto into the mainstream financial system, bringing both benefits and challenges.
On Bitcoin&#8217;s future, Pompliano affirmed its continued dominance and likely inflow of capital from traditional finance, and while he does not have a specific price target, he is bullish on the future of Bitcoin.
Reiterating his point of other countries already getting involved, he said, &#8220;There&#8217;s a lot of other countries who have already bought, they&#8217;re mining, they&#8217;re holding Bitcoin.&#8221;
Pompliano emphasized that the United States, as the world&#8217;s largest capital market, must also be involved in Bitcoin and that would help reduce any hesitation other countries may have about adopting it. 
He also referenced the use of Bitcoin as a sanctions hedge, highlighting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42667932/did-vladimir-putin-just-ban-bitcoin-mining-in-russia-the-devil-is-in-the-details">Russia's actions in that respect</a>.

'Owning Bitcoin Is Digital Real Estate,' Says Anthony Pompliano

Ukraine said it received 150 sets of SpaceX's Starlink from Poland hours before Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk told the U.S. to pay for the high-speed internet services because it can no longer <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/10/29264636/elon-musks-spacex-asks-us-to-foot-the-bill-for-starlink-internet-services-in-ukraine-report-says-we">afford to give it to Ukraine for free.&nbsp;</a>
What Happened: Ukrainian Ministry of Reintegration of Temporarily Occupied Territories said the Starlink sets would allow it to quickly restore communication until the damaged infrastructure is rebuilt in the liberated regions.&nbsp;

"Some of them are intended for mobile operators and Internet providers. Currently, mobile operators have restored 27 mobile base stations in the Kharkiv region and continue to restore others," it added.
This came days after Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/10/29130474/ukraine-diplomat-asks-elon-musk-to-f-k-off-says-tesla-will-be-boycotted-in-the-country">drew massive flak on social media</a>, including from Ukrainian officials for polling his followers on what would be the most likely outcome of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.&nbsp;
Following his tweet, Ukraine&#8217;s outgoing ambassador to Germany, Andriy Melnyk, sharply replied to Musk. &#8220;F&#x2A;&#x2A;k off is my very diplomatic reply to you, Elon Musk,&#8221; he said.&nbsp;
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/10/29129597/elon-musk-tells-zelenskyy-i-still-very-much-support-ukraine-but">Musk later defended it</a> to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and said he supports Kyiv. "I still very much support Ukraine, but am convinced that massive escalation of the war will cause great harm to Ukraine and possibly the world," he said.&nbsp;
The billionaire entrepreneur early Friday on Twitter said SpaceX could not &#8220;indefinitely&#8221; fund the Starlink internet service in Ukraine and send it several thousand more terminals..

Ukraine Gets 150 Starlinks From Poland While Elon Musk Says He Can No Longer Afford To Give The Kits Away For Free

Vor Biopharma Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VOR#NASDAQ">VOR</a>) shares are trading higher on Friday after the company announced it has entered into a securities <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42701204">purchase agreement</a> for a private investment in public equity financing (PIPE).
What To Know: The company expects to generate about $55.6 million in gross proceeds from the PIPE. Vor plans to utilize these proceeds in order to fund clinical and preclinical development of its pipeline candidates and for general corporate purposes.
As part of the PIPE, Vor will issue a total of 55,871,260 shares of common stock and accompanying warrants to purchase an additional 69,839,075 shares, priced at $0.99425 per share and warrants.
If exercised for cash, the warrants would result in additional gross proceeds to Vor of up to approximately $58.5 million.
The PIPE was led by Reid Hoffman who believes in the potential of Vor&#8217;s trem-cel therapy to treat acute myeloid leukemia. The therapy utilizes CRISPR/cas9 to modify the bone marrow of patients.
&#8220;Early data released by Vor suggest a potent effect, which now must be confirmed by future trials. I am delighted to support this company that uses a game-changing technology that will hopefully impact the lives of patients with this lethal cancer – but even more the trajectory of cancer therapy in general,&#8221; said Hoffman.

Goldman Sachs analyst Jordan Alliger reiterated the Buy rating on J.B. Hunt Transport Services, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBHT#NASDAQ">JBHT</a>).
The analyst&#8217;s take on J.B. Hunt suggests a positive outlook. The company showed a 5% growth in intermodal in the third quarter of 2024, driven by a 7% increase in transcontinental and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/jbht/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">double-digit growth in Southern California.</a>
However, according to Alliger, the company&#8217;s intermodal growth lags behind the &#8220;Big Three&#8221; ports, which saw an average increase of 27.5%.
The Big Three West Coast Ports, represented by L.A., Long Beach, and Oakland, reported a 20% year-over-year increase in November 2024 traffic, surpassing the pre-pandemic five-year average of 2%.

However, sequentially, the combined data showed a 6% month-over-month decline, which is below the five-year average.
Despite this, the analyst predicts that the pace of growth could pick up again for J.B. Hunt toward the end of 2024 and into 2025, ahead of any potential tariffs.
The shift towards domestic intermodal is showing positive signs, and there is potential for more imports to move out of West Coast warehouses.
The West Coast ports, regaining share in 2023 and 2024, may further boost J.B. Hunt&#8217;s performance if more ocean freight is diverted to the West Coast amid ongoing contract uncertainties on the East Coast. Despite this, the company&#8217;s growth is still behind the broader industry&#8217;s pace, but the outlook remains favorable with potential upside, Alliger adds.
Price Action: JBHT shares are trading lower by 0.76% to $170.70&nbsp;at the last check Friday.

J.B. Hunt's Intermodal Growth Shows Promise Despite Lagging 'Big Three' Ports: Analyst

Johnson &amp; Johnson (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNJ#NYSE">JNJ</a>), the iconic healthcare giant known for its stable dividends and defensive appeal, has entered a bearish technical pattern: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/death-cross">the Death Cross</a>. 
This occurs when the stock's 50-day moving average falls below its 200-day moving average, signaling potential downside.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent122724&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="810" height="546" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/27121413/JNJ-Death-Cross.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-709568" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/27121413/JNJ-Death-Cross.jpg 810w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/27121413/JNJ-Death-Cross-300x202.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/27121413/JNJ-Death-Cross-768x518.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px" /></a></figure>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">JNJ Stock Chart: Bearish Signals Abound</h2>
JNJ stock, at $145.58, is below critical moving averages across the board. Its 20-day ($144.97), 50-day ($154.24) and 200-day ($154.66) moving averages suggest the trend is firmly bearish. With a MACD of a negative 2.72 and a Relative Strength Index of 36.84, the technical setup doesn't inspire confidence.
The one silver lining? JNJ stock's eight-day simple moving average of $144.97 is slightly below its current price, flashing a rare bullish signal amid the gloom.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Johnson &amp; Johnson&#8217;s Strategic Moves In Dermatology</h2>
While the charts tell one story, Johnson &amp; Johnson's business narrative points to another. The company recently inked a licensing deal with Kaken Pharmaceutical for KP-723, a promising candidate targeting atopic dermatitis (AD), also known as eczema. With plans to launch a phase I study in 2025, Johnson &amp; Johnson is positioning itself to address significant unmet needs in autoimmune and allergic diseases.
This move aligns with the company's strategic focus on differentiated mechanisms of action in dermatology. Johnson &amp; Johnson's acquisitions in 2024 also bolstered its dermatology pipeline, emphasizing innovative treatments for AD and other immune-mediated conditions.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Dividend Reliability Meets Bearish Momentum</h2>
Johnson &amp; Johnson's long-standing reputation as a dividend aristocrat—boasting 60+ years of consistent payouts—continues to provide a safety net for investors. 
With ample liquidity, low leverage, and robust free cash flow, the company's dividend sustainability remains solid even in the face of technical bearishness.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Verdict</h2>
The Death Cross may cast a shadow over Johnson &amp; Johnson stock's short-term outlook, but its commitment to growth, innovation, and reliable dividends underscores its long-term appeal. 
Investors should weigh JNJ stock&#8217;s bearish technical indicators against the company's strategic moves in dermatology and its history of weathering market storms.
As Johnson &amp; Johnson looks to tackle eczema and diversify its portfolio, the stock may be down but far from out. For now, the Death Cross is a storm cloud on the horizon—but every storm eventually passes.

Johnson & Johnson Death Cross: Stock Stumbles Despite Pipeline Promise

WIIM

Rumble shares are trading lower, possibly pulling back after the stock's recent surge.

Looking into the current session, Bank of New York Mellon Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BK#NYSE">BK</a>) shares are trading at $77.72, after a 0.80% decrease. Over the past month, the stock decreased by 5.62%, but over the past year, it actually spiked by 47.51%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1735324215_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>A Look at Bank of New York Mellon P/E Relative to Its Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Bank of New York Mellon has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 43.67 of the Capital Markets 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/2024/1735324215_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.

Price Over Earnings Overview: Bank of New York Mellon

Jensen Huang, the CEO and cofounder of Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), is making headlines for more than just his company's dominance in AI chips. Huang is allegedly leveraging <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-reduce-taxable-income-for-high-earners">legal tax strategies</a> to protect an estimated $8 billion from federal estate and gift taxes, according to a recent investigation by The New York Times. This staggering number has spurred a wider discussion about how the ultrawealthy use legal loopholes to safeguard their money.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The NYT's Findings on Huang's Wealth Strategies</h2>
Huang&#8217;s net worth was $127 billion when the report was released in early December. According to the NYT, he has used a number of financial strategies to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/ownwell">reduce estate taxes</a>. These include instruments such as donor-advised funds (DAFs), grantor-retained annuity trusts (GRATs) and irrevocable trusts. By doing so, Huang could pass on much of his fortune to his descendants with minimal tax liability.

<li>The global games market is projected to generate $272B by the end of the year —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/gameflip"> for $0.55/share, this VC-backed startup with a 7M+ userbase gives investors easy access to this asset market.</a></li>
</ul>
One of the most notable examples cited by the NYT involves an irrevocable trust Huang and his wife set up in 2012. They transferred Nvidia shares worth $7 million into the trust, which has since grown in value to over $3 billion. Normally, the tax on that kind of wealth would be about 40%, but the trust helps them pay much less – perhaps just a few hundred thousand dollars.
As Lewis &amp; Clark Law School professor Jack Bogdanski told the NYT, "You have an army of well-trained, brilliant people who sit there all day long, charging $1,000 an hour, thinking up ways to beat this tax. Don't expect anyone in Congress to stop this."

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's the Bigger Picture?</h2>
The NYT&#8217;s investigation provides a broader view of the continuous erosion of estate taxes over time. Huang&#8217;s tactics are becoming increasingly popular, even though these taxes are meant to impact only the wealthiest Americans. Thanks to these methods, experts estimate that about $200 billion gets passed down each year without being taxed.
To make matters worse, funding constraints have reduced the Internal Revenue Service&#8217;s (IRS) ability to enforce the law. During the early 1990s, audits of more than 20% of estate tax returns were conducted. The NYT reports that number has now fallen to roughly 3%.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Charitable Contributions and Scrutiny</h2>
While Huang's philanthropy is well-documented, critics also scrutinized his use of DAFs, which lack transparency and accountability. Through the Jen Hsun &amp; Lori Huang Foundation, the couple has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41124309/nvidias-jensen-huangs-wealth-exploded-in-five-years-to-108-billion-heres-why-his-philanthropy-is-bei">donated Nvidia shares</a> worth hundreds of millions of dollars to these funds. Although these contributions reduce Huang's taxable estate, the funds are not required to distribute money to charities immediately, leaving room for criticism about their actual societal impact.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Debate Continues</h2>
Huang's financial strategies highlight the growing divide between the ultrawealthy and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/04/38295912/biden-promised-irs-funding-wouldnt-increase-audits-for-regular-americans-as-irs-audits-poorest-ameri">broader taxpaying public</a>. While these tactics are legal, they underscore how accessible loopholes can result in massive tax savings for billionaires. As the debate over wealth inequality and tax fairness continues, Huang's story may become a case study in how the richest Americans protect their fortunes.
