On Friday, Exelixis, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXEL#NASDAQ">EXEL</a>) authorized repurchasing up to an additional $500 million of the company&#8217;s common stock before <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/b43868849/exelixis-announces-a-newly-authorized-500-million-stock-repurchase-program" rel="noreferrer noopener">December 31, 2025</a>.
Exelixis plans to complete the $500 million stock repurchase program, announced in August 2024, in the second quarter of 2025 and commence stock repurchases under the newly authorized stock repurchase program thereafter.
As of the end of fiscal year 2024, Exelixis has returned over $1.2 billion to shareholders through these programs.
Earlier this month, Exelixis reported fourth-quarter adjusted EPS of 55 cents, beating the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of 43 cents</a>. The cancer-focused company reported sales of $566.75 million, beating the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/b43640071/exelixis-announces-fourth-quarter-and-fiscal-year-2024-financial-results-and-provides-corporate-up" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $563.42 million</a>.
Exelixis reaffirmed its 2025 sales guidance of $2.15 billion-$2.25 billion versus consensus of $2.24 billion.

Recently, Exelixis announced the final results from the phase 3 CheckMate -9ER pivotal trial evaluating Cabometyx&nbsp;(cabozantinib) in combination with Bristol-Myers Squibb &amp; Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>) Opdivo&nbsp;(nivolumab) versus sunitinib for patients with previously untreated advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
After more than five years of follow-up, the findings demonstrated that the efficacy benefits of Cabometyx&nbsp;in combination with Opdivo were sustained long-term.
At a median follow-up of 67.6 months, Cabometyx, in combination with Opdivo, improved progression-free survival and overall survival compared with Pfizer Inc&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>) Sutent (sunitinib) in the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/b43756537/exelixis-announces-final-five-year-follow-up-results-from-checkmate-9er-trial-evaluating-cabometyx" rel="noreferrer noopener">intent-to-treat population</a>.
A subgroup analysis by the International Metastatic RCC Database Consortium (IMDC) risk showed PFS and objective response rates favored Cabometyx in combination with Opdivo versus sunitinib regardless of the IMDC risk group.
In January, Exelixis announced that its supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for cabozantinib for adults with previously treated advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine and extra-pancreatic tumors will no longer be discussed at the FDA&#8217;s Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee meeting. The sNDA remains under consideration by the FDA and has a Prescription Drug User Fee Act action <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b42896345/exelixis-provides-update-on-oncologic-drugs-advisory-committee-meeting-for-cabozantinib-cabometyx-" rel="noreferrer noopener">date of April 3</a>.

<h3>About Freeport-McMoRan</h3>
Freeport-McMoRan owns stakes in 10 copper mines, led by its 49% ownership of the Grasberg copper and gold operations in Indonesia, 55% of the Cerro Verde mine in Peru, and 72% of Morenci in Arizona. It sold around 1.2 million metric tons of copper (its share) in 2024, making it the one of the world's largest copper miners by volume. It also sold about 900,000 ounces of gold, mostly from Grasberg, and 70 million pounds of molybdenum. It had about 25 years of copper reserves at end December 2024. we expect it to sell similar amounts of copper midcycle in 2029, though we expect gold volumes to decline to about 700,000 ounces then due to falling production at Grasberg.

Looking At Freeport-McMoRan's Recent Unusual Options Activity

Elon Musk doesn't just work hard—he sleeps hard. The billionaire tech mogul has reportedly been crashing on the floor of his government office, which sits just across from the West Wing of the White House.
Since taking on his new role as head of the Department of Government Efficiency under President Donald Trump, Musk has been spending long hours at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building—so long that he's apparently decided to just sleep there.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Sleeping In The Office—Again</h2>
A Republican source told People that Musk has been &#8220;holed up&#8221; in his government office, sometimes sleeping on the couch and sometimes straight-up on the floor. Not exactly Tesla's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)&nbsp; luxury interiors, but Musk has never been big on comfort.
It's not the first time Musk has made an office his bedroom. He famously <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTj3h7wp1Mw">lived in a Tesla factory </a>for three years, sleeping on a couch, under his desk, and even in a tent on the roof. His reasoning back then? Too much work, not enough time to go home.
Now, history seems to be repeating itself—only this time, instead of a Tesla plant, his makeshift bedroom is in a government building next to Trump's White House.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Government Office? More Like A Full-Time Home</h2>
The EEOB, where Musk has been sleeping, houses various agencies under the Executive Office of the President. It's next to the White House, making it easy for Musk to stay close to Trump.
And while Musk may not have a bed, the EEOB does have perks. A cafeteria, a gym, and even a bowling alley are available for government employees, so at least he's not starving.
But Musk isn't the only one spending extra time in the office. His 4-year-old son, X Æ A-Xii, has reportedly been around "quite a bit." The toddler even made an appearance at a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqjjPYekxgM&amp;ab_channel=FOX9Minneapolis-St.Paul">Feb. 11 Oval Office press conference,</a> standing beside Musk and Trump while making faces at reporters.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Mar-a-Lago: Musk's Other "Home"</h2>
When Musk isn't sleeping in his government office, he's reportedly spending time at Mar-a-Lago. <a href="https://people.com/elon-musk-sleeping-office-floor-near-white-house-exclusive-11678717">People magazine quoted sources</a> as saying he was living at Trump's Florida resort during the presidential transition, helping shape the administration's tech policies.
One Palm Beach told People last month that Melania Trump was "glad to have a babysitter for Donald" while Musk was hanging around.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">So, Why Is Musk Sleeping There?</h2>
It's unclear exactly why Musk is choosing to sleep in the EEOB, but given his history, it's likely just about efficiency. If you ask Musk, he'd probably say something like &#8220;too much work, no time to leave.&#8221;
The White House has not commented on his sleeping habits. Neither has Musk. But for now, the world's richest man is apparently sleeping on the floor, just a few steps from Trump's White House.

Bybit founder Ben Zhou has raised concerns that multisig wallet provider Safe may have been compromised, allowing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43886224/bybit-founder-confirms-1-4-billion-ethereum-hack-blames-masked-transaction">hackers to steal $1.4 billion</a> in Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>). 
Speaking in a live stream, Zhou explained that the attack targeted Bybit's Ethereum cold wallet, but all other wallets, including its Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) reserves, remain unaffected.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How The Attack Unfolded</h3>
Zhou recounted how the attackers manipulated Bybit's signing process while maintaining the appearance of a legitimate Safe transaction.
&#8220;It was a normal URL. I double-checked. It was the Safe URL from the official Safe website. We always use the official website,&#8221; Zhou said.
He explained that as part of standard security measures, he verified the UI and destination address, ensuring it matched Bybit's warm wallet before approving the transfer. 
However, the actual signing message was altered, not to authorize a simple transfer, but instead to modify the smart contract logic of the cold wallet.
&#8220;The hacker changed that transaction into upgrading or changing the Safe smart contract logic so that he gained control over the entire Ethereum cold wallet,&#8221; Zhou revealed.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Extent of the Damage And Bybit's Response</h3>
The total stolen amount includes:
<ul>
<li>401,347 ETH ($1.12 billion)</li>
<li>90,376 stETH ($253 million)</li>
<li>15,000 cmETH ($44 million)</li>
<li>8,000 mETH ($23 million)</li>
</ul>
Despite the breach, Zhou assured users that withdrawals remain open, although processing times have increased due to a surge in requests. 
At the peak, Bybit was handling nearly 100 times the normal withdrawal volume. 
The exchange is currently relying on a bridge loan from partners to maintain liquidity while resolving the issue.
&#8220;We are not currently buying ETH. We secured almost 80% of the stolen amount as a bridge loan to maintain liquidity,&#8221; Zhou confirmed.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Investigating The Breach</h3>
Bybit is working closely with Safe's team to determine whether the attack stemmed from a vulnerability on Safe's end. 
Zhou stated that Safe has paused its services to conduct further internal investigations.
&#8220;It could be that the Safe server was hacked, but we don't know yet. We are actively working with Safe to uncover what happened,&#8221; Zhou said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Tracking The Stolen Funds</h3>
Bybit has also received support from major exchanges such as Binance and MEXC and Gate which have pledged to help track and block the stolen assets. 
Zhou encouraged security firms and blockchain analysts to assist in monitoring the movement of funds in hopes of freezing the stolen Ethereum before it is laundered.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next?</h3>
Bybit confirmed that it has the financial reserves to cover client losses, stating that the stolen Ethereum represents only a fraction of the exchange's total assets. 
The company also reiterated its commitment to security enhancements and will continue updating users as the investigation progresses.

BofA Securities analyst Christopher Nardone reiterated a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CROX/analyst-ratings">Buy rating</a> on the shares of footwear company Crocs Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CROX#NASDAQ">CROX</a>) with a price forecast of $153.
The analyst still believes management can meet its goal of modestly growing Crocs N.A. sales in 2025. Key factors include management's positive outlook on a strong wholesale order book for the next six months, along with the analyst&#8217;s optimistic view of upcoming product innovations, which have already received favorable feedback from wholesale partners.
These innovations include the InMotion clog (currently available at a $60 price point), global and product expansions of popular sandal styles like the Getaway, Miami, and Brooklyn, a greater focus on slippers (primarily in the second half of the year), and continued growth in Jibbitz and collaborations (with a full pipeline for this year).
For N.A. sales growth this year, the analyst anticipates a decline in first-quarter across both channels, followed by a rebound in second-quarter. 
First-quarter will face challenges from the leap year, Easter shifting to second-quarter, and a tougher wholesale comparison, with brick-and-mortar stores showing strong double-digit growth in first-quarter 2024, said the analyst.
International sales will remain the primary driver of overall brand growth for Crocs in 2025 and beyond, the analyst noted.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Crocs&#8217; Growth Markets </h2>
According to the analyst, the biggest growth markets for Crocs this year, in terms of dollar value, are expected to be China, India, and Western Europe, including the UK, Germany, and France.
In 2024, India posed a challenge for the company due to regulatory hurdles that hindered supply from meeting demand. However, as 2025 progresses, the company anticipates an improvement in the supply situation. 
With four factories in India, up from three last year, Crocs plans to scale up production and increase output by the end of the year. This expansion will enable quicker distribution of sandals in India, a key move given the strong demand for sandals in the market.
Heydude is still in the early stages of recovery. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43691979/crocs-smashes-q4-earnings-expectations-amid-strong-china-growth-stock-jumps">Fourth-quarter progress</a> was promising, with better-than-expected digital performance and a return to positive DTC growth, the analyst said.
The analyst expects gross margins in 2025 to be similar to last year. But there may be a slight decline, according to official guidance.
Management plans to increase marketing spending to 10% of sales in 2025, up from 9% in 2024. This includes more investment in both brands, with Heydude focusing on brand awareness. 
The analyst is encouraged by the recent partnerships, including Sydney Sweeney, Jelly Roll, and Travis Hunter. Crocs will also boost influencer spending and maintain focus on Tier-1 markets.
HeyDude&#8217;s continued progress will drive multiple growth, the analyst added. Also, the company&#8217;s cash flow potential is undervalued.
Price Action: Crocs shares are trading higher by 0.25% at $109.15 at the last check Friday.

Crocs Poised For Expansion, Analyst Counts China, India, Western Europe Among Biggest Growth Markets

At $2,930 on February 21, gold prices have been up 6.6% over the past 30 days and up 45% over the past year. Gold prices have crested the benchmark $3,000 per-ounce level, reaching $3,100 in mid-February.
That performance outpaces stocks, bonds, and most global currencies as volatility has taken hold of financial markets.
And that&#8217;s just the beginning. Wall Street analysts are forecasting even gold will keep rising this year.
Here are the three best ways to play that rise in gold prices.
A case in point &#8211; Goldman Sachs recently called gold prices to rise for the remainder of the year, between $3,100 and $3,300, as central bank demand and political instability push golf prices up by 10%.
&#8220;Policy uncertainty — including tariff fears — stays high; higher speculative positioning for longer could push gold prices as high as $3,300 an ounce by year-end,&#8221; noted Goldman strategist Lina Thomas in a recent research outlook.
Other analysts are in general agreement.
&#8220;A more forceful rally relative to our previous expectation is likely to be driven by deep-rooted bullish sentiment, with gold seen as a safe-haven asset amid a highly uncertain and volatile macro environment,&#8221; UBS said in a new research note.
Commodity sector insiders are even more bullish, with a $4,000 gold price in the cards.
"The current surge in gold prices and demand underscores the profound uncertainty gripping individual investors and global markets,&#8221; said Paul Williams, managing director at Solomon Global, a certified gold and silver bars and coin supplier. "This doesn't look like a short-lived rally —it's a response to entrenched geopolitical tensions, economic fragility, and shifting global power dynamics."
As volatility escalates, gold remains the ultimate hedge, offering stability in an increasingly unpredictable world. "Considering these factors, the $3,000 milestone looks feasible in the next few weeks, and if gold was to make the same gains as it has over the last 12 months, we're looking at $4,250 this time next year," Williams says.
Other gold watchers are pumping the breaks, noting that major global currency movements could tamp commodity prices down in 2025.&nbsp;
"Gold prices will remain elevated throughout 2025 against the backdrop of increased Central Banks purchases, mounting concerns about disruptive US tariffs and demand from newly introduced gold ETFs," said Peter Smith, senior international equity strategist at Federated Hermes, which regularly tracks gold prices. "Central banks are increasingly moving away from Treasuries as investments for their currency reserves, with China in particular, sitting on a $1 trillion trade surplus in 2024, is aggressively buying gold."
However, gold could weaken if the interest rate differential stays wide between the US and the rest of the world. "This could lead to the dollar remaining strong, which should put downward pressure on gold," Smith says. "This is not our base case, but with inflation sticky in the US, the Federal Reserve has signaled it is willing to keep rates higher for longer."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Three Gold Plays to Make in 2025</h2>
So, while the trend remains positive for gold and other commodities (silver, for instance, is up 40% so far in 2025), here&#8217;s what sector experts say is the smart play for investors looking to add a yellow hedge to their portfolios.
Gold mining stocks. Stocks of companies that mine gold, such as Newmont (USA), Barrick Gold (Canada), and Freeport McMoRan (USA), offer the opportunity to profit when the metal's price rises, says Julia Khandoshko, CEO of broker Mind Money, a European investment technology and financial engineering hub.
"Investors should note that gold mining stocks can also be risky, so factor that reality into portfolio selection and discuss any trades with a trusted financial advisor," Khandoshko says. "Nevertheless, gold mining stocks can offer better returns than direct investments, especially if the chosen company manages its resources effectively and successfully copes with external challenges."
Gold ETFs. For new investors, spot gold ETFs like SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) can be the easiest and most efficient way to gain exposure to gold, with the larger sector ETFs making the most sense right out of the gate.
Gold ETFs are one of the best options for investing in gold efficiently without the hassle of storing physical bars. "They track the price of gold and are easy to buy and sell, just like a stock," says Chris Heerlein, CEO of REAP Financial, an investment advisory firm based in Austin, Texas.&nbsp;
GLD has some other features gold fund investors might appreciate.
"In addition to being highly liquid, SPDR Gold Shares has always been my favorite gold ETF for two reasons," said Michael Martin, vice president of market strategy at TradingBlock, a Chicago-based market technology trading company. "First, it holds physical gold as opposed to gold futures, so it doesn't suffer decay in value over time. Second, it has the highest assets under management, at $78.1 billion in net assets." The fund is trading at $270 as of February 21.
Physical gold. If you feel ambitious and want direct control over your gold investment, consider investing in physical gold.
"Buying physical gold is a good move because it's the safest and most reliable, as it eliminates counterparty risk," says Alex Ebkarian, COO and co-founder at California-based Allegiance Gold. "It fits the needs of those looking to preserve wealth, diversify their portfolio, and most importantly want and desire to maintain control of the asset and eliminate counterparty risk and addresses declining trust in paper gold."
Buying physical gold requires having "a mid-to-long term outlook on return on investment, as well as preferring ownership of a physical asset versus exposure to the gold stock or fund sector," Ebkarian added.

JP Morgan&nbsp;analyst Rajat Gupta&nbsp;downgraded TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRUE#NASDAQ">TRUE</a>)<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/true/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener"> from Overweight to Neutral</a>.
This week, the company reported fourth-quarter EPS loss of 7 cents per share, falling short of the analyst consensus estimate of loss of 6 cents&nbsp;and revenue&nbsp;of $46.21 million,&nbsp;missed the consensus&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n43796921/truecar-releases-fourth-quarter-2024-financial-results-and-stockholder-letter" rel="noreferrer noopener">estimate of $47.29 million</a>.
The analyst cites the weakening tailwinds from inventory and limited visibility on a sustained turnaround in revenue and profits as reasons for the downgrade.&nbsp;
The analyst writes that it was a disappointing quarter for the company with an uncertain path to recovery in growth and profitability, especially as the boost from rising new vehicle inventories begins to fade.&nbsp;
While upcoming products like TCMS, OEM advertising, and data monetization, along with TC+ integration into DMS platforms, offer potential, TRUE must demonstrate clear results from its initiatives and investments in sales and marketing, adds the analyst.
The analyst says that&nbsp;the possibility of a merger or partnership with industry peers cannot be ruled out.&nbsp;
Gupta revised the FY25 EBITDA estimate from the previous +$15 million to breakeven due to weaker dealer revenue. The analyst also lowered the FY26 estimate from +$35 million to +$25 million. 
Due to these significantly reduced projections, the analyst also withdrew his price forecast on the stock.
Price Action: TRUE shares are down 5.21% at $2.531 at the last check Friday.

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43803016/is-jack-dorsey-the-mysterious-satoshi-nakamoto-vanecks-matthew-sigel-points-key-evidence-linking-twitter-founder-to">VanEck's Head of Digital Assets Research</a>, Matthew Sigel, has laid out a vision for how the U.S. Treasury could use Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) to strengthen its balance sheet.
What Happened: In a post on <a href="https://x.com/matthew_sigel/status/1892654369025245281">X</a> on Friday, Sigel highlighted VanEck's estimates that if Bitcoin appreciates at 25% annually—rising from $100,000 today to $21 million per BTC by 2049—the reserve could offset 18% of the projected U.S. debt.
This assumes debt grows at 5% annually, reaching $116 trillion by 2049 (up from $36 trillion in 2025).
While this theory is highly optimistic, it underscores Bitcoin's potential as a sovereign reserve asset and a hedge against inflationary debt expansion.
The BITCOIN Act introduced by Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis proposes the U.S. accumulate 1 million BTC over five years and hold it for at least 20 years as a strategic Bitcoin reserve.

Why It Matters: Polymarket now <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/us-national-bitcoin-reserve-in-2025?tid=1740147906234">prices</a> in a 44% chance of a U.S. National Bitcoin Reserve in 2025, up from 39% earlier this month. 
Kalshi <a href="https://kalshi.com/markets/kxbtcreserve/bitcoin-reserve">data</a> sees a 59% probability that Trump would establish a Bitcoin Reserve if elected, up from 53.8% on Feb. 12.
Arkansas is set to become the first state to establish a Bitcoin reserve, with amendments expected by March 5. Meanwhile, Texas is preparing to debate the proposal in its Senate.
What's Next: Momentum is building for Bitcoin as a national strategic asset, with state-level initiatives paving the way for potential federal adoption. 
While still speculative, institutional support and policy discussions could shape Bitcoin's future as a financial pillar in the U.S. economy.

最近の市場の混乱にもかかわらず、ジム・クレーマー氏は現在の企業収益が景気後退を示していないとの見方を示し、投資家たちに安心感を提供している。
出来事：CNBCのホストを務めるクレーマー氏は、企業の収益の報告に関する自身の分析を共有し、それが深刻な景気後退の兆候を示していないと説明している。彼は、個々の企業のレポートによるマイクロデータが、まもなく起こるだろう景気後退という概念を裏付けていないと強調し、<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/08/06/cramer-says-tuesdays-earnings-dont-indicate-a-serious-recession.html">CNBCが火曜に報じたところによると</a>。
クレーマー氏によれば、「私たちが現在抱えている景気後退では、景気後退は起こっていないという考えに基づいている。というのも、私がフォローしているのは、実際にレポートを提出した個々の企業から出ているマイクロデータだからです。この24時間以内にレポートを提出した企業のリストを見てみると、景気後退に向かって真剣な状況にあるという主張をするのは難しいことがわかります」とクレーマー氏は述べた。
彼は、Caterpillar Inc.（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAT#NYSE">CAT</a>）やBuilders FirstSource, Inc.（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLDR#NYSE">BLDR</a>）などの企業の強い業績を強調し、それらが予想を上回っていると語った。 クレーマー氏は、Uber Technologies Inc （NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>）、Molson Coors Beverage Co（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAP#NYSE">TAP</a>）、Planet Fitness Inc（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLNT#NYSE">PLNT</a>）、Yum！ Brands, Inc。（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YUM#NYSE">YUM</a>）などの消費者向けの奨励的な結果にも言及している。
「今朝は、素晴らしい四半期が続きました。時間がたつにつれて、素晴らしい四半期が続いています。そのことに気づかなかった人たちが中央銀行だけを信じるようなことをするかもしれませんが、それは本当に見込みがありません」とクレーマー氏は述べた。

なぜ重要か： Cramer氏のコメントは、経済の不確実性と市場の変動の時期に発表されたものである。景気後退の恐れがあるにも関わらず、いくつかの専門家は逆の見解を表明している。
たとえば、Sahm Ruleを開発した経済学者Claudia Sahm氏は米国経済が景気後退しているとは<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40177780/i-do-not-think-the-us-economy-is-in-recession-sahm-rule-creator-refutes-claims-amid-market-turmoil">考えていないと述べている</a>。
同様に、ウォールストリートのベテラン投資家であるEd Yardeni氏も、景気後退の恐れに<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40170709/veteran-wall-street-analyst-counters-recession-fears-we-dont-expect-a-hard-landing-">異を唱え、景気後退を予想していないと主張している</a>。
この議論が続くなかで、市場は大きな変動を示している。連邦準備制度（FRB）が緊急金利を引き下げる可能性も<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/08/40203305/should-fed-make-an-emergency-cut-before-september-meeting-no-not-even-close-analy">最近の金利市場のショック波の後に</a>憶測されたこともある。 しかし、火曜までに、2024年にFRBが緊急金利を引き下げるとされる暗黙の確率は14％に急落した。
