XRP (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/xrp/usd">XRP</a>) bucked declines in other large-cap cryptocurrencies this year, surging an impressive 17% year-to-date.
What happened: The coin, now worth over $142 billion in market capitalization, was the only cryptocurrency in the top 10 list to have recorded net gains since 2025 began.
In contrast, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) were down 6.62%, 38.38%, and 39%, respectively, this year.
XRP overtook Tether (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">USDT</a>) earlier this month to become the third-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. It was ranked fourth as of this writing, and another 6-7% move at the current supply could again catapult it to the third position.
According to on-chain analytics firm Santiment, the overall number of XRP holders has climbed by more than 8% year to date, amounting to a net addition of 490,000.&nbsp;
Additionally, the daily active addresses have skyrocketed from 56,261 on Jan. 1 to a high of 612,340 recorded last week.

Whale accumulation has also surged, indicated by a steady rise in addresses holding between 1,000 and 100,000 XRP tokens.

Why It Matters: Several bullish triggers have supported the coin&#8217;s rise, including the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/42120607/gary-gensler-to-step-down-as-sec-chair-on-trumps-inauguration-day">retirement </a>of former SEC Chair Gary Gensler, its potential <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44068814/bitcoin-ethereum-dogecoin-rally-on-trumps-strategic-crypto-reserve-announcement-cardano-xrp-solana-skyrocket-analyst-says-btcs-new-ath-possible-later-in-the-month">inclusion</a> in a U.S. digital asset stockpile, and the end of the <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/03/44398151/ripple-ceo-announces-victory-as-sec-drops-appeal-in-xrp-lawsuit">SEC&#8217;s enforcement</a> against Ripple Labs—a firm that extensively uses XRP for its operations.
In another milestone pointing to the end of the almost four-year legal tussle, Ripple agreed on Tuesday to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/03/44484286/ripple-closes-in-on-legal-resolution-with-sec-will-recover-75-million-from-original-fine">pay the SEC a $50 million fine</a> and drop the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40240559/xrp-outshines-bitcoin-ethereum-to-become-biggest-daily-gainer-after-judge-imposes-125m-pen">cross-appeal </a>against an August 2024 ruling.
The SEC originally sought nearly $2 billion in civil penalties and interest from Ripple. The final $50 million retained represented a tiny fraction of that amount.
Price Action:  At the time of writing, XRP was exchanging hands at $2.43, up 1.10% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

XRP Has Outshone Bitcoin, Ethereum This Year With Impressive 17% YTD Gains — Will It Reclaim The Third-Largest Crypto Spot?

As the chip industry continues to <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43722945/tech-war-intensifies-as-trump-sets-to-revise-the-us-chips-act-conditions-not-aligned-to-white-house-policies-under-review">face difficulty</a> with traditional silicon, Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) CEO Lisa Su says the path forward lies in rethinking how innovation happens.
What Happened: In a conversation with ASUS's Tony Yu that was posted on Bilbili, Su gave answers to multiple questions surrounding artificial intelligence, the future of semiconductors, and Strix Halo.&nbsp;&nbsp;
When asked about the growing <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/media/25/03/44393971/nvidia-says-dynamo-can-make-deepseek-r1-30x-faster-with-blackwell-months-after-the-ai-model-sparked-selloff-leading-to-a-600-billion-drop-in-its-market-cap">popularity of China's</a> DeepSeek, she didn't hesitate to acknowledge its global influence.
"DeepSeek is not just popular in China — it's popular globally," Su said. "It's a very innovative model… the idea that, with limited computing resources, you can accomplish something so sophisticated … surprised the world."
Su added that many of the techniques pioneered in DeepSeek are already being adopted across other AI models and platforms. "What I like about it is that it's inspired an even faster pace of innovation than before," she said.

Turning to the hardware side, Su acknowledged that advancements in traditional silicon manufacturing are slowing. "It is true that silicon scaling is getting more difficult," she said.
However, AMD is already investing in what comes next — including chiplet architecture, 3D stacking, and next-gen packaging solutions. "We have to continue to optimize not just on silicon, but on the package, system, and software," she added.
Su also addressed the future of gaming PCs, saying their powerful GPUs make them ideal for much more than just games. "Gamers have always pushed the envelope on performance," she said. "Your gaming PC can now have multiple uses — doing gaming, doing AI — and that's a huge opportunity."

Why It Matters: Last month, AMD reported $7.66 billion in revenue in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/02/43495077/whats-going-on-with-amd-stock-wednesday">fourth quarter</a>, beating expectations of $7.53 billion and an adjusted EPS of $1.09, slightly above the forecasted $1.08.
While total revenue grew 12% year-over-year, driven by a 69% surge in Data Center revenue to $3.9 billion, this fell short of analyst projections of $4.14 billion.
The AMD CEO has also made her AI ambitions clear, with the company poised for a significant expansion in its AI GPU segment this year. AMD anticipates over 60% growth in <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44274365/amd-ceo-lisa-su-says-ai-boom-is-just-getting-started-and-amds-ready-to-cash-in">AI GPUs in 2025</a>, driven by the rapid scaling of its MI350 accelerator platform.
The real game-changer, however, is the MI400 platform. Set to launch in 2026, it is designed to rival Nvidia Corporation&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) Rubin-class compute, aiming to power large-scale AI clusters with over 100,000 GPUs.
Price Action: AMD&#8217;s stock inched up 0.12% in after-hours trading, settling at $114.95. During Tuesday's regular session, it closed at $114.81, marking a 0.84% gain, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

AMD CEO Lisa Su Says Silicon Scaling Getting 'More Difficult' But Progress Isn't — Praises China's DeepSeek For Inspiring 'Faster Pace Of Innovation That Before'

Wealthy investors amped up their Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) purchases over the last two weeks, accelerating the meme coin&#8217;s recovery from recent lows.
What Happened: In an X post on Tuesday, influential cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez highlighted that over 200 million DOGE tokens, worth $38.70 million at current prices, have been accumulated in the past two weeks, indicative of their long-term conviction in the coin despite fluctuations.
These investors bought the dip when Dogecoin plunged to a yearly low of $0.146 two weeks ago. Since then, the world&#8217;s leading meme coin has rebounded by 32.53%.

Dogecoin Whales Accumulate 200 Million DOGE Amid Market Volatility, Memecoin Rebounds 32% From Yearly Lows

Jim Cramer issued a warning on X about potentially reducing U.S. computational capabilities for artificial intelligence. Responding to comments by Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NASDAQ">BABA</a>) Chairman Joe Tsai about a potential data center bubble, Cramer emphasized the critical <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44467996/alibaba-chair-says-business-entrepreneurs-more-confident-after-meeting-with-xi-jinping-in-january-signals-hiring-boost">importance of maintaining AI infrastructure</a>.
What Happened: &#8220;Now Joe Tsai says there&#8217;s a bubble in data center building. Does China just want us to lose this lead?&#8221; Cramer wrote. He directly challenged the notion of scaling back U.S. computational resources, stating, &#8220;If you want to hobble the U.S. when it comes to robots and self-driving, then you need much more compute. It would be horrendous if the U.S. cut back.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

Cramer also noted the market implications, warning that Tsai&#8217;s comments were pushing down NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) stock and highlighting a &#8220;death cross&#8221; that emerged in pre-trading on Tuesday.

The comments follow Tsai&#8217;s recent remarks at the HSBC Global Investment Summit in Hong Kong, where he cautioned about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44469333/alibabas-tsai-sounds-alarm-on-signs-of-ai-bubble-people-are-building-data-centers-on-speculation">reckless data center expansion</a>. Tsai warned that tech firms and investment funds are building infrastructure without a clear customer base, stating, &#8220;People are talking literally about $500 billion [in projects]. I don&#8217;t think that is entirely necessary.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Supporting Cramer&#8217;s perspective, Gene Munster from Deepwater Asset Management suggested that &#8220;the race to AGI should continue to drive infrastructure spending for the next few years.&#8221; Goldman Sachs analysts further bolstered this view, predicting AI-related investments could generate $305 billion in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44469333/alibabas-tsai-sounds-alarm-on-signs-of-ai-bubble-people-are-building-data-centers-on-speculation">revenue by the end of 2025</a>.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) $165 billion U.S. expansion is reportedly driven by geopolitical pressure, supply chain security, and customer demands, but it comes with major risks for Taiwan.&nbsp;
What Happened: TSMC&#8217;s accelerated U.S. expansion aims to meet the demands of American clients like Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Nvidia Corp.(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>).
However, experts warn that Taiwan&#8217;s strategic importance could diminish as the U.S. increases its share in global chip production, <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Technology/Tech-Asia/TSMC-s-165bn-U.S.-expansion-push-Inevitable-but-risky">reported</a> Nikkei Asia.
Earlier this month, TSMC announced an additional $100 billion investment to build five new chip facilities and an R&amp;D center in the U.S.
The self-governed island has relied on its &#8220;Silicon shield&#8221; for protection, but the U.S. is now home to TSMC&#8217;s first overseas cutting-edge plant in Arizona.

Konrad Young, a former R&amp;D director at TSMC and former senior advisor at Intel, said that Taiwan should move beyond the &#8220;silicon shield&#8221; concept and avoid linking its strategic significance solely to a single company or industry.
He stressed the need for Taiwan to establish &#8220;multiple shields&#8221; to showcase its broader value to governments worldwide.
Why It's Important: The expansion of TSMC in the U.S. has sparked a series of geopolitical and economic concerns.
Last month, <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43966206/china-warns-tsmc-could-become-united-states-semiconductor-manufacturing-co-as-trump-pushes-us-chipmaking">China accused Taiwan</a> of potentially surrendering its semiconductor industry to the U.S. for political support. This accusation comes amid rumors of TSMC&#8217;s potential stake in Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>).
Moreover, Taiwan&#8217;s government has also scrutinized TSMC&#8217;s overseas ventures, saying that they require permission <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/02/44013241/taiwan-semiconductor-faces-government-scrutiny-on-overseas-ventures-amid-intel-stake-rumors">for joint ventures abroad</a>.
Previously, the U.S. has also expressed concerns over Chinese tech giant Huawei Technologies&#8217; <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/media/25/02/44052145/taiwan-semi-faces-geopolitical-strain-due-to-us-scrutiny-on-huaweis-chip-access">access to TSMC chips</a>.
Despite these challenges, TSMC&#8217;s Chairman CC Wei earlier this month said that the U.S. expansion is driven by the booming demand for AI and smartphone technologies, <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44195821/taiwan-semiconductor-chief-says-us-expansion-driven-by-ai-and-smartphone-boom-warns-of-supply-shortage">not political pressure</a>.
Price Action: TSMC&#8217;s stock inched up 0.32% in after-hours trading, reaching $181.48. Earlier on Tuesday, it closed at $180.90, slipping 0.14% during regular trading. So far this year, the company&#8217;s shares have declined 10.26%, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

What Happened: The apex cryptocurrency rallied to an intraday high of $88,542.39, a marked improvement from the lows of $77,500 two weeks ago. Bitcoin, however, still traded down over 19% from its all-time highs set two months earlier. 
The sideways price action came despite video game retailer GameStop Corp.

Bitcoin's market dominance increased to 60.5% while Ethereum's share shrank by 1.91% over the last 24 hours. Dogecoin, meanwhile, recorded a healthy gain of 5%.
In the past 24 hours, 79,798 traders were liquidated, with total liquidations at $159.85 million. Nearly equal amounts of longs and shorts were wiped out.
Bitcoin's Open Interest fell 0.55% in the last 24 hours, while Ethereum also recorded a marginal decline in funds locked in its unsettled futures contracts.
Traders betting on Bitcoin's price increase surged sharply vis-à-vis those betting on its decline, according to the Long/Short Ratio.
The market sentiment changed from "Fear" to "Neutral," according to the Crypto Fear and Greed Index, suggesting a balance between market forces.

Analyst Notes: Popular on-chain blockchain analytics firm Santiment stated that Bitcoin's spike to $88,500 has brought optimism back to retail traders
The firm noted that trader greed has escalated, with BTC price projections on social media ranging from $100,000 to $159,000.
"Remember that cryptocurrency markets have ALWAYS historically moved the opposite direction of the crowd&#8217;s expectations," Santiment said, suggesting that this could be a good time for profit-taking.

Bitcoin, Ethereum Range-Bound, Dogecoin Spikes As GameStop Move Shines Spotlight On Crypto: Analytics Platform Says Now Could Be A Good Time To Take Profit

FST Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KBSX#NASDAQ">KBSX</a>) witnessed significant stock volatility on Tuesday, with shares experiencing a 26.55% daytime surge followed by a 10.14% after-hours decline, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
The dramatic price movement coincides with the company&#8217;s launch of the KBS PGW graphite golf shaft, with CEO David Chuang projecting $1.0 to $1.5 million in first-year revenues. The stock&#8217;s volatility underscores the speculative nature of small-cap stocks in niche market segments.
Founded in 1992, FST has built a vertically integrated business model that distinguishes its KBS brand in the competitive golf equipment landscape. The company&#8217;s products are used by golfers at all levels, including professional players in major golf associations.

This transition is not always straightforward, requiring a massive shift in mindset and approach. Growth-focused investments are excellent for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/04/38167234/building-wealth-brick-by-brick-homeownership-sparks-208-000-surge-in-net-worth-over-four-years">building wealth</a> but can be volatile and unpredictable.

</ul>
One Reddit user, a 58-year-old investor with a $3 million portfolio, is making a bold move like this. He is considering reallocating $1 million to dividend-focused investments to test the waters before retiring. His goal is to generate $55,000 annually in dividends while making sure his portfolio remains steady enough to support his lifestyle in retirement.
&#8220;I have about a $3 million portfolio mostly spread between mutual funds and individual stocks but I have never focused on dividends. I am now 58 and thinking about putting 1/3 or $1 million into dividend ETFs and stocks in preparation for retirement,&#8221; the investor wrote.
His proposed allocation includes a combo of ETFs and stocks, such as Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHD#NYSE">SCHD</a>), Realty Income Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/O#NYSE">O</a>), Ares Capital Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARCC#NASDAQ">ARCC</a>), Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLU#NYSE">XLU</a>), JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEPI#NYSE">JEPI</a>), and JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JEPQ#NASDAQ">JEPQ</a>), aiming for a 5.5% yield.

Still, the poster is unsure whether his allocation is optimal, especially when it comes to stocks like O and ARCC, and whether the ETFs he selected offer enough diversification and yield. The Reddit community has offered the investor plenty of advice and insights, so let&#8217;s see these.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">$1 Million Reallocation For Retirement–Reddit Analyzes the Stock and ETF Selection</h2>
Diversify and Consider Risk Management
Many community members mentioned how important diversification in investing is, especially when it comes to a retirement portfolio, so they suggested replacing individual stocks with ETFs for risk reduction and simplification.
&#8220;I'd avoid individual stocks in a retirement account, like O and ARCC. I'd go with the ETF [Putnam BDC Income ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pbdc#NYSE">PBDC</a>)] for more diversification. I&#8217;d have you investing $1 million into: SCHD 27%, JEPI 11%, [Vanguard International High Dividend Yield ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/vymi#NASDAQ">VYMI</a>)] 11%, JEPQ 10.5%, [NEOS Nasdaq 100 High Income ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqqi#NASDAQ">QQQI</a>)] 9.7%, [NEOS S&amp;P 500 High Income ETF (CBOE: SPYI)] 9.5%, PBDC 6.6%, [Arbor Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/abr#NYSE">ABR</a>)] 6%, [STAG Industrial, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/stag#NYSE">STAG</a>)] 3.55%, [Reaves Utility Income Fund (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/utg#NYSE">UTG</a>)] 3.5%, and your yield would be over 8% with $6,800 per month dividend income on average,&#8221; a comment reads.
&#8220;Switch XLU with more SCHD. I like [VICI Properties Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/vici#NYSE">VICI</a>)] more than O; VICI is literally recession-proof. Also, I would get rid of JEPI for more JEPQ or SPYI,&#8221; a Redditor suggested.
A user pointed out that the investor has no global diversification, which can offer stability for a portfolio.
&#8220;You&#8217;ve got no international positions either. Legendary investors like Warren Buffett and Peter Lynch have both said that you should invest in companies that any idiot can run because sooner or later, one will. The same is true of countries,&#8221; he said.

Think About Yield Optimization and Tax Efficiency
Commenters also focused on how the investor can maximize yield while maintaining tax efficiency, particularly since he is planning for retirement.
&#8220;I would personally put the bulk of money in high-yield funds like [iShares Preferred and Income Securities ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pff#NASDAQ">PFF</a>)] with a 6% yield, PBDC 9%, and JEPQ. ARCC is a [business development company] and they are required to pay out most of their earnings so the dividends are high for many BDCs. PBDC invests in the best BDCs they can find, including ARCC. This adds diversification. You could also have some money in [Schwab High Yield Bond ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/scyb#NYSE">SCYB</a>)], a corporate bond fund with a yield of 7%, and the rest in SCHD and XLU. I don&#8217;t see a reason to keep JEPI,&#8221; a Redditor suggested.
&#8220;We are retired early and in the process of migrating from dividend growth to dividend income in our taxable account. SPYI and [NEOS Nasdaq 100 High Income ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqqi#NASDAQ">QQQI</a>)] use return of capital in their distributions so they work well in taxable accounts. I also like some [closed-end funds] such as [Eaton Vance Enhanced Equity Income Fund (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/eoi#NYSE">EOI</a>)] and [Eaton Vance Enhanced Equity Income Fund II (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/eos#NYSE">EOS</a>)] that use long-term capital gains and/or return of capital in their distributions,&#8221; a retiree in the comments recommended.
A Redditor considered the poster&#8217;s strategy way too conservative and advised him to go more aggressive to boost income and overall returns.
&#8220;In my opinion, you are short-changing yourself with such a conservative dividend income portfolio. I hold JEPQ and other high dividend funds and ETFs and am getting a yield of 12%+ with 26% total return in 2024,&#8221; he said.

Gamestop, FST Corp, Merck, UPS, And Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Chagee Holdings Limited, a premium tea drink brand, has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to list its ADSs on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker &#8220;CHA.&#8221; The company aims to fuel its expansion in the growing freshly-made tea drinks market through this IPO.  
Founded in 2017, Chagee has grown rapidly. As of Dec. 31, its network included 6,440 teahouses, with 6,284 in China, making it the largest network among premium brands in the country. The company reported approximately RMB 29.5 billion ($4.06 billion) in total Gross Merchandise Value for 2024, a 173% increase from 2023.  
Chagee emphasizes &#8220;tea tech,&#8221; integrating digital and automation to enhance operations. The company operates as a Cayman Islands holding company with subsidiaries in China and elsewhere. 
The IPO&#8217;s size and pricing details are yet to be disclosed. Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Deutsche Bank, and CICC are among the underwriters. 
The company competes in the fast-evolving freshly made tea market against established players with more resources. It also vies with food and beverage operators, including Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>), for premium beverage sales.

China's Milk Tea Chain Chagee Files For Nasdaq IPO Under 'CHA,' Taking On Starbucks In Growing Market

A memecoin named after GameStop Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) skyrocketed to triple-digit gains Tuesday after the video game retailer adopted Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) as a treasury reserve asset.
What happened: BNB Chain (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/bnb/usd">BNB</a>)-based GameStop Coin (GME) soared 467% in the last 24 hours, dwarfing returns by blue-chip cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>).
The latest uptick widened the coin's monthly returns to an astounding 422781.61%. However, a cursory glance at its trajectory revealed periods of short-term rise followed by sharp collapse, indicating its speculative nature.
Note that the cryptocurrency isn't tied to GameStop in any way but seeks to capitalize on the hype surrounding the meme stock.

The decision culminated weeks of speculation around GameStop&#8217;s foray into Bitcoin investments. Last month, the firm's CEO, Ryan Cohen, <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/02/43605313/gamestop-stock-is-surging-monday-whats-going-on">posted a picture</a> with Michael Saylor, founder of the world's biggest Bitcoin Treasury company, Strategy.
The company reported its fourth-quarter earnings after Tuesday's market close, with adjusted earnings of 30 cents per share, beating analyst estimates of eight cents per share. It reported a fourth-quarter revenue of $1.283 billion, missing the consensus estimate of $1.48 billion.
Price Action:&nbsp; At the time of writing, GME was exchanging hands at $0.001858, up 467% in the last 24 hours, <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/gamestopcoin-net/">according </a>to CoinMarketCap.
Shares of GME rose 8.27% in after-hours trading, after closing 0.82% lower at $25.40 during Tuesday&#8217;s regular session, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

GameStop-Themed Memecoin Explodes 467% After Retailer Emerges As Latest Bitcoin Play: What You Should Know

A lawsuit has been filed against national security leaders from the Trump administration. The suit alleges that these <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44467683/donald-trump-officials-accidentally-text-war-plans-to-journalist-on-signal-exposing-secret-yemen-strike-hours-before-bombs-fell-but-president-says-he-doesnt-know-anything-about-it-youre-saying-that-they-had-what">officials used the encrypted messaging app</a> Signal to discuss military operations, potentially violating the Federal Records Act.
What Happened: The legal action was initiated by American Oversight, a watchdog organization, as <a href="https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/5214036-trump-officials-face-records-lawsuit-over-signal-chat/">reported</a> by The Hill on Tuesday.
The group argues that using Signal hinders public access to government records. The Atlantic reported that the chat allegedly included national security adviser Michael Waltz, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Vice President JD Vance, and The Atlantic's Editor-in-Chief, Jeffrey Goldberg. The group reportedly discussed military actions in Yemen, raising concerns about national security and compliance with federal record-keeping laws.
Chioma Chukwu, interim executive director of American Oversight, voiced concerns about the sharing of sensitive information through Signal. Chukwu stressed that military planning should take place in secure settings, not informal chats. The lawsuit seeks to ensure the preservation and recovery of federal records, emphasizing the need for transparency for the American public.
Chukwu labeled the disclosure of such information in the group as a &#8220;five-alarm fire&#8221; for government accountability and said it was a potential crime.
The lawsuit references provisions of the Administrative Procedures Act, which permits the review of unlawful actions related to records. It suggests that agency heads or the Archivist may have neglected their responsibilities to prevent the improper destruction of records or to recover unlawfully removed documents.
In his statement, Chukwu said, &#8220;War planning doesn't belong in emoji-laden disappearing group chats. It belongs in secure facilities designed to safeguard national interests.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The lawsuit&#8217;s backdrop involves a significant security breach where the Trump administration&#8217;s national security team inadvertently leaked sensitive war plans to a journalist. Goldberg revealed that he was accidentally added to a Signal chat discussing imminent military strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen. This incident exposed vulnerabilities in the communication practices of high-level officials.
Signal, a <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/tech/25/03/44480053/what-is-signal-trump-admin-uses-messaging-app-similar-to-metas-whatsapp-to-discuss-war-plans">messaging app</a> similar to Meta&#8217;s WhatsApp, was used by the Trump administration to discuss confidential military operations. The app&#8217;s use raises questions about its safety and appropriateness for such sensitive discussions.

Trump Administration Officials Face Lawsuit Over Signal Leak: 'War Planning Doesn't Belong In Emoji-Laden Disappearing Group Chats'

BlackRock (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLK#NYSE">BLK</a>) CEO Larry Fink didn't dance around it. In a sit-down recently with Kayla Tausche of <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/12/business/video/larry-fink-market-pullback-us-economy-blackrock-ceo-tausche-cnc-digvid">CNN</a>, he said out loud what a lot of Americans have probably suspected for a while: if you work for a Fortune 500 company, retirement isn't that scary. But if you don't? Well, good luck.
"One of the fundamental problems in America is retirement is not that bad of a problem for the top Fortune 500 companies," Fink said. "We are providing enough support to our employees where they're getting the adequacy of retirement. It's beyond that."
And that "beyond" is where things get dicey.
"We refuse to talk about how do we get more broadening of our economy with more Americans participating in that," he added. "And so that's why we have to have a conversation here in Washington. This has to be considered a national priority and a national promise to all Americans."

<li>This startup is on the brink of a huge disruption to a $654 billion industry – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/venhub-adv">invest in it for under $10 before it's too late</a>.</li>
</ul>
Translation: The system works—if you're lucky enough to be inside it.
Fink was in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44427073/larry-fink-says-the-u-s-needs-a-social-security-plan-where-every-american-can-grow-with-our-economy">D.C. meeting with policymakers</a>, pushing for retirement to be treated as a national priority. And this isn't some sudden concern. In his <a href="https://www.blackrock.com/corporate/investor-relations/larry-fink-annual-chairmans-letter">2024 annual letter to shareholders</a>, he laid it all out: the system is leaving millions behind—57 million Americans, to be exact. That includes gig workers, restaurant staff, farmers, and anyone without access to a traditional employer-sponsored retirement plan.
BlackRock tried to chip away at the problem by expanding access to target date ETFs, which are like training wheels for retirement investing. But even Fink admitted there are limits. "Better investment products can help, but there are limits to what something like a target date fund can do," he wrote. The biggest hurdle? Just getting started.
Meanwhile, Australia's been busy showing everyone how it's done.
Under the Superannuation Guarantee, Australian employers have been contributing to workers' retirement since 1992—no matter if they're full-time, part-time, or gig workers. The result? Australia now has the fourth-largest retirement system in the world, despite being ranked 54th in population.
Trending: Hasbro, MGM, and Skechers trust this AI marketing firm — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/rad-intel">invest pre-IPO from $0.55 per share now</a>.
Fink doesn't suggest copy-pasting Australia's system onto the U.S., but he thinks it's worth studying. "More should consider it," he said, pointing to 20 U.S. states, including Colorado and Virginia, that are testing state-run retirement programs to fill the gap.
Even employees who do have access to retirement plans are missing out.
According to Fink, about 17% of workers eligible for employer plans don't enroll. It's not because they've run the numbers and decided to skip it—it's usually because life gets in the way.
"It sounds trivial," he wrote, "but even the hour or so it takes someone to look through their work email inbox for the correct link to their company's retirement system… can be the unclearable hurdle."
Enter auto-enrollment. It's a tiny nudge with a massive impact. Studies show it boosts participation by nearly 50%. A new federal law will soon require companies that launch new 401(k) plans to auto-enroll workers, but Fink says there's still room to level up—like defaulting to higher contributions or matching funds.
And then there's the other half of the equation: spending the money.
Turns out, saving for retirement is only half the battle. The other half? Knowing how to spend it. BlackRock's 2018 study of 1,150 retirees found that even after 20 years of retirement, the average person had 80% of their pre-retirement savings still sitting there.
They weren't broke—they were worried. Only 32% said they felt comfortable spending their savings. Fink calls it the "retirement paradox": people who've saved enough are still afraid to touch it.
This anxiety traces back to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43216432/billionaire-blackrock-ceo-larry-fink-declares-no-one-should-have-to-work-longer-than-they-want-but-says-retiring-at-65-is-crazy">America's retirement makeover</a>. In the old days, pensions were the norm. Retire after a few decades, get a monthly check. Simple. But now? It's all defined contribution plans—401(k)s that follow workers from job to job. Or at least, they're supposed to.
See Also: This platform is reshaping how you invest in private companies —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/kingscrowd-adv"> and you can be a part of it for $0.18 per share</a>
In reality, transferring a 401(k) is such a hassle that about 40% of people cash out their accounts when switching jobs. So instead of a steady paycheck in retirement, they're stuck solving a math problem: how much to withdraw, and how long it needs to last. Spoiler: most people aren't retirement actuaries.
To tackle the spending side of retirement, BlackRock rolled out LifePath Paycheck, a strategy now live and available through select retirement plans. It's designed to deliver pension-like income from a 401(k)—a predictable monthly paycheck, minus the guesswork.&nbsp;
This hybrid approach—offering both flexibility and security—can turn retirement from a math puzzle into something that actually feels manageable.
Fink thinks it could revolutionize how retirement works in America—and maybe even beyond. "Because while retirement is mainly a saving challenge," he wrote, "the data is clear: it's a spending one too."
Bottom line? The current system works great for those at the top. For everyone else, Fink's saying it out loud: the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset">U.S. has a retirement problem</a>, and ignoring it won't make it go away.

Big Tech Companies Employ Majority Of H-1B Visa Workers: Where Do Amazon, Google, Meta Rank?

Last year on "<a href="https://youtu.be/rKXYo_Wc8iA?si=klqUe4z-SyEnBNj4">The Ramsey Show</a>," a caller named Casey from Amarillo, Texas, picked up the phone and did what most Americans won't: he admitted he didn't really get how the national debt works.
"I'm a little embarrassed because this is really going to showcase my ignorance of the subject," Casey told Dave Ramsey, before rattling off three surprisingly common questions: Who do we owe $33 trillion to? Why did we borrow it in the first place? And is it even possible — or remotely logical — to pay it off?
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>‘Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">You can invest today for just $0.26/share with a $1000 minimum.</a></li>
<li>This startup is on the brink of a huge disruption to a $654 billion industry – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/venhub-adv">invest in it for under $10 before it's too late</a>.</li>
</ul>
Turns out, Casey voiced what a lot of people quietly wonder. The national debt gets thrown around in headlines and campaign speeches, but for the average person, it's about as clear as a tax form written in Latin.
So <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43470226/dave-ramsey-to-47-year-old-caller-fire-your-tax-advisor-after-he-was-told-to-switch-from-a-roth-to-a-traditional-401k-for-tax-deduction">Ramsey did what he does best</a> — broke it all down in plain English, no fluff, and a few haymakers of truth along the way.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Who Do We Owe?</h2>
"We owe the money to whoever bought the Treasury bills," Ramsey explained. "If I bought a $100,000 Treasury bond, that means the United States of America owes me $100,000."
These bonds are basically government IOUs. People — and yes, other countries — buy them, and the U.S. promises to pay them back with interest. "Now, I know they're never gonna pay the bond," Ramsey said, "or if they do, they're gonna pay it by issuing another one."
So, yeah. It's like paying off one credit card with another and calling it fiscal policy.
Trending: Hasbro, MGM, and Skechers trust this AI marketing firm — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/rad-intel">invest pre-IPO from $0.55 per share now</a>.
Ramsey warned that while most of this debt is held domestically, the foreign-held portion — like the chunk owned by China — is "a little dangerous… but it's not like they can repo Kentucky."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Did We Borrow This Much?</h2>
Short answer? Because the government spends more than it makes — just like people with five credit cards and no emergency fund.
"When the revenue coming in from taxes and other things won't cover the expenses of highways and military and $45,000 toilet seats and a billion dollars to this country and 8 billion to that country," Ramsey said, "we give billions and billions and billions away overseas when we don't have the income in a year."
That gap between spending and revenue is called the deficit, and every time we add to it, the total debt grows. Even when politicians say they're "cutting the deficit," Ramsey said, "All that means is they didn't go over budget quite as much."
Trending: This platform is reshaping how you invest in private companies —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/kingscrowd-adv"> and you can be a part of it for $0.18 per share</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can We Actually Pay It Off?</h2>
"Mathematically, we could," Ramsey said. "I don't think we have the political willpower to do it."
Why not? Because paying off the debt would require cutting a lot of things. And that would get ugly, fast.
"Tell your Uncle Henry who gets a subsidy because he runs a dairy farm that he's not going to get that anymore — he's not voting for that congressman," Ramsey said.&nbsp;
He pointed out that huge chunks of the budget are now just interest on the existing debt. And you can't exactly skip out on that payment. "So where are you gonna cut?" Ramsey asked. "You gonna cut the military? You gonna cut foreign aid? Highway funding? You think anyone's gonna be okay with that?"
Ramsey even described a road near one of his own properties that hasn't been fixed because the local government is waiting on $14 million in federal funds — money they've been expecting for five years. "Meanwhile the road's a damn goat track."

Everyone's waiting for someone else to foot the bill. "Everybody's on the dadgum take," he said. "And nobody wants to say no. Saying no is the only way you balance a budget."
Ramsey summed it up like this: "It's not a math problem. It's a willpower problem." His co-host, George Kamal, even tossed in a nod to Warren Buffett, who once said: "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43904075/warren-buffett-said-he-could-end-u-s-deficit-in-5-minutes-if-you-guys-cant-get-it-done-well-get-some-other-guys-to-get-it-done">I could end the deficit in five minutes</a>. You just pass a law that says anytime there's a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for reelection."
Ramsey loved the idea. "You redefine what winning looks like," he said. Maybe Congress needs to learn a new word, he suggested — an ancient, nearly extinct word in Washington: "No."
A year later, have lawmakers finally learned to say "no"? It's… complicated. The Trump administration has proposed $1.7 trillion in spending cuts over the next decade, targeting everything from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43901103/medicaid-faces-880-billion-cuts-but-trump-says-social-security-is-safe">Medicare and Medicaid</a> to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44408839/trump-will-sign-an-order-to-dismantle-the-department-of-education-on-thursday-report">Department of Education</a> — sparking backlash over potential harm to low-income families, rural schools, and essential services. While the goal is to rein in the $36 trillion national debt, the political firestorm proves Ramsey's point: "Saying no is the only way you balance a budget," but in Washington, it's still the hardest word to say.
As he put it: "You press your tongue to the roof of your mouth, release, and let air go by… No."

$100 Invested In This Stock 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Over the years, Ford Motor Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) has filed plenty of patents. A patent filed several years ago and recently published will likely be a big talking point for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/electric-vehicle">electric vehicle sector.</a>
What Happened: Ford isn't new to filing patents for its electric vehicles and technology with the company previously filing a patent for technology that could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/08/33897914/charge-your-ev-while-driving-a-legacy-automakers-patent-aims-to-make-it-a-reality">charge a vehicle while driving.</a>
While that sounds useful and convenient for EV owners, the latest published patent is more decorative than useful.
Ford patented a manual gear shifter in electric vehicles, according to a <a href="https://insideevs.com/news/754432/ford-patent-manual-shifter-evs/">report </a>from InsideEVs.
Electric vehicles operate with a different system than traditional internal combustion-powered vehicles, which makes a manual stick shift a novelty item.
Titled, Shifter Assembly for Electric Vehicle, the patent shows a picture of a manual shift lever mounted on a raised section of the floor.
The <a href="https://www.freepatentsonline.com/20250092947.pdf">patent </a>says the shifter "manages the flow of electrical energy delivered by the battery pack, controlling the speed of the motors and the torque each motor produces."
According to the report this means the shift would imitate a standard transmission and could actually make the EV slower as the output is interrupted.

Why It's Important: While the patent filing doesn't mean Ford will put this novelty item inside new electric vehicles anytime soon, the filing will likely raise questions.
It would seem there is a small audience who would find a manual shift nostalgic, even if it isn't practical in an electric vehicle.
According to the report, Ford isn't the first to try an idea like this with a manual shift inside an electric vehicle. Hyundai and Toyota also tried similar methods.
Ford had two of the top-selling electric vehicles in the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/25/01/42978236/us-electric-vehicle-sales-hit-record-1-3-million-units-in-2024-despite-tesla-declines-top-10-bestselling-models-list"> U.S. in 2024</a>, with the Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning ranking third and sixth, respectively.
Ford had a market share of 7.5% for electric vehicles in the U.S. in 2024, trailing only market leader Tesla (48.7%).
