Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) is up 5% over the past 24 hours but keeps hovering around <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/dogecoin-doge-price-prediction">a make-or-break level</a> a prominent analyst warns.
What Happened: In a recent <a href="https://x.com/Kev_Capital_TA/status/1937534740208251297">podcast</a> update, analyst Kevin pointed out the confluence of critical indicators at the $0.16 zone, including the weekly 200 Simple Moving Average (SMA), weekly 200 EMA, and the macro 0.382 Fibonacci retracement.
 "This is a very important level," he emphasized, noting it has consistently acted as a launchpad during the current bull cycle.
Kevin also cited weekly RSI resilience: in every significant correction during this cycle, the RSI has stayed above 38, keeping the broader uptrend intact.
Kevin's technical approach has been methodical. 
His team took profits in late 2024 at euphoric RSI peaks, then accurately re-entered DOGE at $0.14–$0.15 in April 2025, exiting near $0.25–$0.26. 
Now, he's back in a swing long from current levels, separate from his long-term DOGE holdings acquired at $0.06.
"We've defended this support level before," he said. "Now's the time to be patient, not fearful."

What's Next: Dogecoin faces significant resistance ahead. 
Kevin notes DOGE is still trading below all major daily moving averages, which remain elevated. Reclaiming $0.19 is crucial for a return to the $0.19–$0.26 range. 
Dogecoin's next move is tightly linked to Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) direction. Kevin emphasized, "BTC runs the show doge will follow Bitcoin at the end of the day."
He views Bitcoin's recent false breakdown and bounce from a symmetrical triangle as bullish. 
For confirmation, BTC needs to break $106,800 and retake the 4-hour 200 SMA. 
If BTC rallies, Kevin expects Dogecoin to follow but warns that falling below weekly RSI 38 could break the $0.143–$0.127 range and trigger a bearish shift.

Dogecoin Up 5% But Doubts Remain: What's Going On?

Bank of America Securities analysts conducted two global surveys between April 15–25 and June 3–13, gathering over 9,000 responses from travelers across the U.S., Mexico, Canada, the UK, Europe, and Japan to monitor shifting cross-border travel expectations <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">in light of ongoing macro volatility</a>.
The data indicates a rising number of international travelers plan to alter their travel plans over the coming year—though it&#8217;s acknowledged that stated intentions don&#8217;t always result in action.
In April, 44% of respondents said they would modify their cross-border travel within 12 months; this rose to 47% in June.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45925124/ripple-ceo-projects-xrp-could-handle-14-of-swifts-cross-border-payment-volume-within-five-years" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ripple CEO Projects XRP Could Handle 14% Of SWIFT&#8217;s Cross-Border Payment Volume Within Five Years</a>
Analysts noted that 89% of those planning to adjust travel in April pointed to concerns about government policies, such as tariffs or immigration. While travelers often cite geopolitical concerns like tariffs and immigration as their main reasons, there was a noticeable increase in price sensitivity, with 14% of June respondents pointing to cost, up from just 4% in April.
The analysts note this shift could potentially affect cross-border volumes for Visa Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">V</a>) and Mastercard Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MA#NYSE">MA</a>).
Specifically, when travelers opt to cancel trips altogether or substitute domestic travel for international plans—estimated at around 10% of total respondents—this could serve as a headwind for both companies&#8217; high-yielding cross-border segments.
However, if travelers merely shift to a different international destination, the impact would likely be neutral.
Despite these signals, neither Visa nor Mastercard has flagged material cross-border weakness in their recent intra-quarter updates.
Visa maintains its fiscal second-half outlook at around 12% cross-border volume growth, consistent with March and April averages, while Mastercard continues to expect stable overall trends.
Given that a sizable portion of Visa&#8217;s and Mastercard&#8217;s international revenues are tied to cross-border travel—about 60–65%, mostly leisure-driven—BofA Securities analysts caution that any sustained softening in global travel demand could pressure growth in this category.
That&#8217;s especially true for U.S. inbound routes, which tend to be among the highest-yielding for both networks.
Visa and Mastercard remain geographically diverse, but potential pullbacks in these travel corridors, even if modest, could influence revenue trajectories in the quarters ahead, BofA Securities adds.

Visa, Mastercard Exposed As More Travelers Cut Back On Overseas Plans

When your cell phone suddenly freezes on your way to grab your morning coffee, it may not be just a technical glitch, but the warning sign of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cyber-security">cyber thievery of the new age</a>. 
The CrowdStrike 2025 Global Threat Report found that: 
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Vishing (short for &#8220;voice phishing&#8221;) attacks have increased 442%</li>
<li>Close to 80% of intrusions no longer sneak in with any malware, and </li>
<li>China-associated hackers are upping their game with a 150% jump in activity.</li>
</ul>
For individual investors who want to ride this cyber mayhem, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">cybersecurity ETFs</a> provide a useful and effective means to tap into the digital defense boom.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Why Cybersecurity, Why Now?</h3>
Hackers are getting quicker and cleverer, cracking networks in 51 seconds or less, frequently without malware. Instead, they use AI-powered phishing emails, take advantage of misconfigured clouds, and steal passwords. It&#8217;s digital jiu-jitsu, and businesses are scrambling to protect themselves.
This explosion of advanced attacks has translated into a multi-billion-dollar cybersecurity boom, and investors are sitting up and taking notice. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The ETFs That Let You Invest In Digital Defense</h3>
If selecting individual <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cybersecurity">cybersecurity stocks</a> seems intimidating, these ETFs provide a diversified method to ride the wave:
First Trust Nasdaq Cybersecurity ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CIBR#NASDAQ">CIBR</a>)
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Assets under management: ~$10 billion</li>
<li>Top holdings: Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PANW#NASDAQ">PANW</a>), Cisco (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>), Fortinet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FTNT#NASDAQ">FTNT</a>), CrowdStrike (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>)</li>
<li>Expense ratio: 0.59%</li>
<li>CIBR is the biggest and most liquid cybersecurity ETF on the market. It&#8217;s based on the Nasdaq CTA Cybersecurity Index and provides exposure to pure-play cyber companies as well as larger tech giants with large, healthy security segments. It&#8217;s an excellent choice for investors looking for liquidity and a diversified, weighted basket of companies that are protecting the frontlines.</li>
</ul>
Amplify Cybersecurity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HACK#NYSE">HACK</a>)
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Assets under management: ~$2.27 billion</li>
<li>Top holdings: Broadcom (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), Palo Alto Networks, Cisco, Crowdstrike, Fortinet, Cloudflare&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NET#NYSE">NET</a>)</li>
<li>Expense ratio: 0.60%</li>
<li>HACK led the way in the space and has a slightly different methodology, it follows the ISE Cyber Security Select Index focused on revenue exposure to cybersecurity. That is to say, it frequently includes boutique players in consulting, military-grade defense, and forensic analysis. If you want more &#8220;boots-on-the-ground&#8221; exposure, HACK delivers that tactical taste.</li>
</ul>
Global X Cybersecurity ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BUG#NASDAQ">BUG</a>)
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Assets under management: ~$1.14 billion</li>
<li>Leading holdings: CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, Zscaler (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZS#NASDAQ">ZS</a>), Fortinet, Okta (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKTA#NASDAQ">OKTA</a>)</li>
<li>Expense ratio: 0.51%</li>
<li>BUG emphasizes high-growth, next-generation players and plays more towards firms focused on endpoint security, cloud-native defenses, and AI-driven threat detection. It&#8217;s slightly more volatile, but for those with a higher-risk appetite, BUG connects to the more innovative edge of the space.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why It&#8217;s Not Too Late</h2>
While these ETFs have become increasingly popular, analysts suggest the cybersecurity trade isn&#8217;t yet crowded. Why? Because the threats are expanding at record pace. 
A June <a href="https://www.fortunebusinessinsights.com/industry-reports/cyber-security-market-101165">report </a>by Fortune Business Insights projects the global cybersecurity market size to grow from an estimated $193.73 billion in 2024 to $562.72 billion by 2032, realizing a CAGR of 14.3% during the period.
With data emerging as the most valuable currency and threats more sophisticated, cybersecurity is becoming one of the most defensive trades in your portfolio.
Cyber ETFs enable individual investors to ride this megatrend without the hassle of stock-picking. If you&#8217;re a conservative investor seeking stability or a tech-loving trader seeking growth, chances are there&#8217;s a cybersecurity ETF out there that&#8217;s your style.

3 Cybersecurity ETFs To Gain Ground As Threats Go Malware-Free, China Gets Bolder

A well-known crypto analyst suggests that a major shift in Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) market dominance could soon pave the way for a significant <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45354990/scottie-pippen-declares-altcoin-season-as-ethereum-xrp-dogecoin-shiba-inu-rally">rally in altcoins</a>.
Crypto trader Rekt Capital <a href="https://x.com/rektcapital/status/1936812932568097053">told</a> his 549,600 followers on social media platform X that Bitcoin dominance, a metric tracking Bitcoin's share of the total cryptocurrency market, is approaching historically high levels that could signal a coming reversal.
According to him, this change could create the conditions for altcoins to outperform Bitcoin.
Rekt Capital pointed to the 71% Bitcoin dominance level as a key historical marker. 
"If past trends hold, a broad altcoin rally could begin when Bitcoin dominance rejects from around the 71% level," he said.
Bitcoin dominance, often abbreviated as BTC.D, reflects the percentage of the crypto market's total value held by Bitcoin. 
When this figure declines, it typically indicates that altcoins are gaining ground relative to Bitcoin.

The analyst emphasized that the exact reversal point may not be precisely 71%, but somewhere in that vicinity. 
"It's not essential whether Bitcoin dominance tops at 71%, 69%, or 67%, the larger uptrend has mostly played out," he noted, suggesting that the market is already nearing a potential turning point.
Rekt Capital also clarified that altcoins are unlikely to lose their value entirely as Bitcoin dominance peaks. 
Instead, he expects altcoins to experience noticeable corrections similar to those seen in February 2025, when Bitcoin dominance climbed from 58% to 64%.
As of now, Bitcoin dominance stands at 65.3%, according to the analyst's tracking.

<h2>Get to Know Alphabet Better</h2>
Alphabet is a holding company that wholly owns internet giant Google. The California-based company derives slightly less than 90% of its revenue from Google services, the vast majority of which is advertising sales. Alongside online ads, Google services houses sales stemming from Google's subscription services (YouTube TV, YouTube Music among others), platforms (sales and in-app purchases on Play Store), and devices (Chromebooks, Pixel smartphones, and smart home products such as Chromecast). Google's cloud computing platform, or GCP, accounts for roughly 10% of Alphabet's revenue with the firm's investments in up-and-coming technologies such as self-driving cars (Waymo), health (Verily), and internet access (Google Fiber) making up the rest.
<h3>A Deep Dive into Alphabet's Financials</h3>
Market Capitalization Highlights: Above the industry average, the company's market capitalization signifies a significant scale, indicating strong confidence and market prominence.
Revenue Growth: Alphabet's revenue growth over a period of 3M has been noteworthy. As of 31 March, 2025, the company achieved a revenue growth rate of approximately 12.04%. This indicates a substantial increase in the company's top-line earnings. As compared to competitors, the company surpassed expectations with a growth rate higher than the average among peers in the Communication Services sector.
Net Margin: Alphabet's net margin surpasses industry standards, highlighting the company's exceptional financial performance. With an impressive 38.28% net margin, the company effectively manages costs and achieves strong profitability.
Return on Equity (ROE): The company's ROE is a standout performer, exceeding industry averages. With an impressive ROE of 10.3%, the company showcases effective utilization of equity capital.
Return on Assets (ROA): Alphabet's financial strength is reflected in its exceptional ROA, which exceeds industry averages. With a remarkable ROA of 7.46%, the company showcases efficient use of assets and strong financial health.
Debt Management: Alphabet's debt-to-equity ratio is below the industry average. With a ratio of 0.07, the company relies less on debt financing, maintaining a healthier balance between debt and equity, which can be viewed positively by investors.
<h2>The Significance of Analyst Ratings Explained</h2>
Ratings come from analysts, or specialists within banking and financial systems that report for specific stocks or defined sectors (typically once per quarter for each stock). Analysts usually derive their information from company conference calls and meetings, financial statements, and conversations with important insiders to reach their decisions.
Beyond their standard evaluations, some analysts contribute predictions for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, furnishing investors with additional guidance. Users of analyst ratings should be mindful that this specialized advice is shaped by human perspectives and may be subject to variability.

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.

What Does the Market Think About FactSet Research Systems?

In the current session, the stock is trading at $8.20, after a 2.50% increase. Over the past month, Banco Santander Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAN#NYSE">SAN</a>) stock increased by 2.80%, and in the past year, by 78.73%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750791630_0_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>How Does Banco Santander P/E Compare to Other Companies?</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. 
Banco Santander has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 12.7 of the Banks industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750791630_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Analysts are specialists within banking and financial systems that typically report for specific stocks or within defined sectors. These people research company financial statements, sit in conference calls and meetings, and speak with relevant insiders to determine what are known as analyst ratings for stocks. Typically, analysts will rate each stock once a quarter. 
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers. It is important to keep in mind that while stock and sector analysts are specialists, they are also human and can only forecast their beliefs to traders.

Benzinga Market Summary: S&P Rises On hopes Of Israel-Iran Ceasefire, Oil Pulls Back, AMD Rises On Analyst Upgrade

After plunging in January on fears that China's DeepSeek AI could undercut its dominance, the Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) stock has not only recouped the losses—it's now flashing a powerful technical signal that has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors">historically preceded massive rallies.</a>
Back in January, DeepSeek's performance shocked investors after the AI model posted best-in-class benchmarks while running on a less advanced Nvidia chip.
The revelation triggered a 17% drop and a $430-billion market cap wipeout for Nvidia's stock from its peak, as investors questioned whether the company's cutting-edge chips were still indispensable in the AI race.

But fast forward 150 days, and Nvidia is again trading above $147 per share, a full recovery from pre-Deepseek levels. 
Investors have shrugged off both the foreign AI challenge as well the April selloff fueled by President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariff policies, following a significant softening in U.S.-China trade tensions.
And the next leg of the rally may be even bigger.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Earnings, China Tariff Cuts Fuel Nvidia&#8217;s Comeback</h3>
Key to Nvidia's rebound was the May 11 announcement that Washington and Beijing agreed to cut reciprocal tariffs by 115 percentage points, coupled with ongoing trade deal talks. 
China remains one of Nvidia's top export destinations, and the easing stance calmed fears of long-term demand destruction.
Then came blowout fiscal first-quarter earnings on May 28. 
Nvidia reported earnings per share of $0.81, beating the $0.737 consensus, while revenue jumped 69% year-over-year to $44.06 billion—well above the expected $43.33 billion. 
That marked the clearest signal yet that Deepseek posed no meaningful threat to Nvidia's AI chip dominance.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Golden Cross May Set Next Stage For Nvidia&#8217;s Rally</h3>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="528" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/24141448/image-366-1024x528.png" alt="" class="wp-image-960412" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/24141448/image-366-1024x528.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/24141448/image-366-300x155.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/24141448/image-366-768x396.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/24141448/image-366-1536x792.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/24141448/image-366-2048x1056.png 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Even more compelling for traders, a classic bullish technical pattern is on the verge of reappearing: the golden cross.
This occurs when a stock's 50-day moving average rises above its 200-day average—a bullish pattern often seen as a precursor to sustained uptrends.
As of June 24, Nvidia's 50-day moving average stands at $126.89, just a hair below the 200-day average of $128.43. A golden cross is imminent, and historical data suggest the move could be significant.
Over the past decade, buying Nvidia on the day of a golden cross and holding through the next death cross (when the reverse occurs) would have delivered staggering returns. 
Nvidia&#8217;s last golden cross – occurred on Jan. 25, 2023 – triggered a rally from $18.91 to $116.94 per share by Mar. 21, 2025, generating a 518.4% return.
From Aug. 23, 2019, to Apr. 21, 2022, Nvidia surged from $4.21 to $21.71 after a golden cross, returning 415.7%.
Prior to that, the stock jumped from $0.57 to $5.16 between Sep. 16, 2015, and Nov. 14, 2018, for a staggering 805.3% gain.
A smaller rally occurred from May 10, 2013, to Jul. 30, 2015, with Nvidia rising from $0.36 to $0.50, up 38.9%.
While this historical pattern offers no certainty of future performance, it's clearly attracting attention from investors riding Nvidia's momentum in the AI boom.
