Insights From Analysts:
According to the Senior Global Market Strategist at Wells Fargo, Scott Wren, &#8220;volatility creates opportunities,&#8221; especially when the outlook doesn't call for a recession and an accompanying contraction in earnings.
&#8220;When stocks are down because the economy is slowing, buying opportunities often result, particularly for longer-term investors whose goal is building wealth over time. Our view is that the U.S. economy and earnings growth are both going to slow down in coming quarters, but neither the economy nor earnings are going to actually contract.&#8221;
The U.S. usually leads the rest of the world into an economic slowdown or recession and then leads the world back out into a period of growth, he explained, adding that &#8220;We don't think this time will be different. Hard to time, yes, but different, likely not.&#8221;
Wren also suggests investors keep a couple of key points in mind for a summer that could see larger-than-usual market swings.
First, with the S&amp;P 500 Index nearing its year-end target, Wren believes now is the time to trim stock portfolios, not liquidate them. He favors reducing international equity holdings, U.S. small-cap equities, and cyclical equity sectors like Industrials and Materials.
Second, Wren anticipates that once &#8220;summer policy fireworks begin&#8221; and both equity and bond prices retreat, opportunities will emerge to deploy cash into markets and sectors with strong long-term growth prospects. His favorites for these additions include U.S. large- and mid-cap equities, along with large-cap sectors such as Information Technology, Communication Services, Energy, Financials, and Utilities.
Meanwhile, on the Fed&#8217;s Wednesday decision, Jamie Cox, the managing partner at Harris Financial Group, said, "The Fed continues to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/46011863/jerome-powell-blames-trump-tariffs-for-inflation-analyst-claps-back-says-fed-is-overplaying-the-card">overplay the inflation story</a> and isn't paying attention to burgeoning demand weakness." &#8211;
Northlight Asset Management CIO, Chris Zaccarelli, on the other hand, explained that the Fed was waiting to see if tariffs increase inflation or the jobs market starts to falter, and whichever part of their dual mandate is impacted first will likely guide whichever direction they take, "although the bias is still toward cutting rates (or at least keeping rates unchanged; not raising rates)."

United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) and American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>) have suspended flights to the Middle East as the conflict between Iran and Israel continues after Israel launched missiles at Iran on June 13, 2025.
What Happened: United Airlines has announced it will suspend flights from New Jersey's Newark airport to Dubai indefinitely due to the conflict, while American Airlines will suspend flights from Philadelphia International Airport to Doha, Qatar, CBS reported <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/us-airlines-suspend-middle-east-flights-iran-israel/">on</a> Thursday.&nbsp;
A spokesperson for American Airlines said that the suspension of flights will last until at least June 22, the report suggests.
Why It Matters: The move comes in as the conflict between the two countries has escalated. U.S. President Donald Trump has called on Iran <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/06/46017426/trump-gives-iran-2-weeks-to-strike-a-deal-or-face-us-military-action">to strike a deal</a> with the U.S. or it will face military action. Trump had left the G7 Summit in Canada earlier than scheduled due to the conflict.
Elsewhere, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that a regime change in Iran isn't his goal, but <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46018790/benjamin-netanyahu-says-he-didnt-present-regime-change-as-a-goal-in-iran-but-it-could-be-the-result">it could happen</a> as a result of the conflict between the two nations.
Amidst this, Russian President Vladimir Putin has<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46010064/ayatollah-assassination-discussion-rejected-by-putin-i-do-not-even-want-to-discuss-this-possibility"> rejected discussions</a> relating to the assassination of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Putin reiterated that Iranians are rallying in support of their leader.

Financial commentator Peter Schiff expressed his intent to launch a gold-backed stablecoin Thursday, questioning the value of those backed by the U.S. dollar.
What Happened:&nbsp;Schiff responded to a comment on X that he should launch a gold-backed stablecoin.
&#8220;They already exist. But I&nbsp;do intend to launch my&nbsp;own,&#8221; Schiff replied. Many users soon converged on this post, with some even suggesting names for the initiative, such as SchiffCoin, while others called it a genuinely &#8220;good idea.&#8221;
It wasn&#8217;t immediately clear whether Schiff was making a joke or genuinely interested in tying cryptocurrency to the asset he passionately supports. Benzinga reached out to entities connected to Schiff, such as SchiffGold, to gather additional information. The article will be updated when they respond.

The conversation started on his original post, where he called the dollar a &#8220;flawed&#8221; fiat currency and instead supported having a token purely backed by gold.
&#8220;I get Bitcoin, but not U.S. dollar stablecoins. If you&#8217;re going to introduce a third party custodian, why settle for a token backed by a flawed fiat currency like the dollar, when you can own one backed by gold?,&#8221; he stated.

Gold-backed stablecoins do exist, with Tether Gold (CRYPTO: XAUT) and PAX Gold (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/paxg/usd">PAXG</a>) among the most well-known. Year-to-date, the two coins have gained over 28%, matching the gains in the yellow metal.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;Schiff&#8217;s views on stablecoins have been clear for some time. He has&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/46010451/peter-schiff-doesnt-think-stablecoins-will-help-preserve-dollar-dominance-heres-what-the-economist-says-theyll-do-instead">expressed doubts</a>&nbsp;about the potential of stablecoins to maintain the U.S. dollar's dominance, suggesting their primary use would be in cryptocurrency trading.

Why Cheetah Mobile Shares Are Trading Higher By Over 11%; Here Are 20 Stocks Moving Premarket

A heated debate over the U.S. healthcare system erupted on X, pitting billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban against Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass) over the root causes of soaring drug prices.
What Happened: The clash, unfolding as of Friday, has reignited discussions on Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) and Big Pharma's tax practices, with the Senate poised to address reform amid rising public scrutiny.
Enter Cuban, the Dallas Mavericks owner and founder of Cost Plus Drugs, who fired back with a pointed correction.
In a post quoting Warren, Cuban argued that PBMs—not Big Pharma—are the true culprits behind inflated drug prices.
&#8220;PBMs corrupt healthcare,&#8221; he wrote, explaining that these intermediaries control formularies and manipulate prices to maximize rebate revenue, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45487788/trumps-drug-price-order-hits-pbms-hardest-cvs-cigna-unh-in-focus-as-experts-highlight-racket-and-pricing-distortion">three major PBMs</a> negotiating over 90% of rebates for commercial insurance plans. 
Warren, in her post, had blamed pharmaceutical giants like Johnson &amp; Johnson (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNJ#NYSE">JNJ</a>) and Pfizer Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>) for charging Americans the &#8220;highest drug prices in the world&#8221; while paying &#8220;zero dollars in federal taxes.&#8221;
Citing data from her Senate Finance Committee role, Warren highlighted how these companies, alongside AbbVie Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABBV#NYSE">ABBV</a>), Amgen Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMGN#NASDAQ">AMGN</a>), and Merck &amp; Co Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRK#NYSE">MRK</a>), have exploited tax loopholes from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act to shield billions in profits.
&#8220;Republicans want to make it worse. I&#8217;m fighting back,&#8221; she declared, sharing <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/17/pfizer-merck-jj-others-face-scrutiny-over-tax-loophole-extension.html">a</a> CNBC headline and urging action against what she calls a &#8220;rigged tax system.&#8221;

According to him, it&#8217;s become overly complicated by big insurance companies and PBMs.
These groups, he says, act as middlemen, controlling not just the costs but also the accessibility of care.
He blames PBMs for lack of transparency, inflated specialty drug prices, rebate distortion, formulary restrictions, and &#8220;Sh–ing on&#8221; on independent pharmacies.

The Wall Street Journal Reported Thursday, Home Depot Has Made An Offer To Acquire GMS

If you're thinking about investing in real estate right now—especially through a platform like Arrived Homes—it helps to look beyond the marketing headlines and get into the actual numbers. Two cities that keep popping up for investors are Memphis, Tennessee and Phoenix, Arizona. Both are active Arrived markets. But while they're both on the radar, they're moving in completely different directions in 2025.
Phoenix is growing fast, with new construction still ramping up and vacancy rates rising. Memphis, on the other hand, is tightening—fast. Supply is shrinking, rents are rising, and occupancy is pushing past 94% in the city's strongest submarkets. Whether you're looking for short-term cash flow, long-term appreciation, or just trying to make a smart entry into real estate, knowing how these two markets stack up is the key to deciding where your next dollar should go.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tight Supply, Rising Rents, and Strong Cash Flow Potential</h2>
Memphis isn't flashy—but for real estate investors, that's kind of the point. What you get here is a stable, landlord-friendly market with rents that are rising, occupancy rates that are climbing, and home prices that are still within reach. Multifamily construction in Memphis has slowed to a crawl. New starts dropped 60% in 2024, and completions are down another 36% in 2025. That kind of supply squeeze is exactly what drives investor returns.
Occupancy is already strong—sitting at over 94% in East Memphis, Midtown, and Collierville—and net absorption is projected to outpace new deliveries by more than 50% this year. That means fewer units are coming online and the ones that do exist are filling fast. As a result, rents are beginning to climb again—between 2.4% and 4% depending on the neighborhood. That's especially encouraging after a relatively flat 2024.
Affordability is another key reason Memphis stands out. Median rents for all units range from $1,300 to $1,342, with one-bedroom apartments averaging around $1,100. Investors aren't paying a premium to enter this market either—median home prices are still hovering around $190,000. That makes Memphis one of the best cities in the U.S. for cash-flow-focused investing, especially if you're building a diversified portfolio through fractional ownership.
And unlike what we're seeing in oversupplied metros, concessions in Memphis are rare. Landlords don't need to offer free rent or move-in bonuses to fill their units. Demand is strong enough to stand on its own, and that puts investors in a great position to earn consistent, stable returns from day one.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">High Vacancy, Heavy Concessions—but Long-Term Promise</h2>
Phoenix is almost the opposite story. It's still one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, with a steady stream of new residents relocating from California, the Midwest, and beyond. But in 2025, that population growth hasn't kept pace with the surge in new rental inventory. Active listings are up 20.5% year-over-year, vacancy is sitting at 7.5%—well above the national average—and over half of all listings (56%) are now offering concessions just to attract tenants.
For renters, that's great news. There's more selection, more negotiating power, and lots of opportunities to score deals. But for landlords and investors, the math is trickier. Rent growth has essentially stalled, up just 1.2% over the past year. Most property managers are projecting flat rent performance until 2026, when the excess supply is expected to get absorbed and growth potentially picks back up to 4–6%.
Phoenix is also more expensive on nearly every front. The average rent is $1,646—over $300 higher than Memphis—and larger units easily push past $2,100 per month. While that can translate to higher gross rents, it also means higher acquisition costs, greater tenant turnover risk, and a more competitive landscape for landlords trying to fill vacancies.
Still, Phoenix has something Memphis doesn't: scale and long-term upside. The city's economy continues to expand. Infrastructure is improving. And the west side, where much of the new supply is concentrated, is expected to stabilize over the next 12–18 months. For long-term investors who can handle softer returns in the short run, Phoenix could still deliver strong appreciation over time.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Which City Wins in 2025?</h2>
If you're asking which city gives you the better investment opportunity right now, the answer is simple: Memphis. It has rising rents, tightening supply, high occupancy, and investor-friendly prices. You don't need to offer tenant incentives. You don't need to worry about competing with hundreds of other landlords. And you can still buy into this market at a price point that leaves plenty of room for cash flow.
Phoenix, meanwhile, is better for renters in 2025. They're enjoying a rare moment of leverage—more supply, lower rent growth, and generous concessions. For investors, the current picture is more complicated. Yes, Phoenix still has long-term potential. But it's a tougher market right now. If you're investing in Phoenix, you're betting on the rebound—waiting for the oversupply to shake out and rent growth to resume.
But if you want to start earning reliable rental income now—not in 2026 or beyond—Memphis is where you want to be putting your capital today.

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is reportedly working on a 6-seater variant of the Model Y crossover SUV.
What Happened: "The much rumored about 6-seater Model Y made an appearance in the firmware," Electrek reported <a href="https://electrek.co/2025/06/19/tesla-hacker-reveals-new-model-y-with-6-seats/">on</a> Thursday, citing a post on X by Tesla leaker Green.
The report also said that the model does not appear to be "China-only as some of the speculations said."
Tesla currently offers a 6-seater variant in the Model X, while also offering 5- and 7-seater versions of the car.

Earnings Scheduled For June 20, 2025

Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) says that its new affordable EV platform will match up to its Chinese counterparts on cost.
What Happened: Lisa Drake, Ford's Vice President for EVs Systems and Platform Programs, shared some insight into the Detroit-based automaker's EV plans with Bernstein analyst Daniel Roeska, Axiom reported <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/06/18/ford-china-ev">on</a> Wednesday.
"Ford intends to match the cost structure of leading Chinese players. That means not just battery pricing, but full system cost from chassis and thermal systems to inverters and electronics," Roeska wrote. The report also gives a 2027 due date for the EV.
The analyst also said that the new platform will support over 8 body styles, including pickups, sedans and crossovers. "With eight body styles and potential global applicability, it&#8217;s intended to underpin Ford&#8217;s EV strategy for much of the next decade," Roeska said.
The company plans on using Prismatic LFP batteries, built in collaboration with Chinese battery giant CATL or Contemporary Amperex Technology Ltd. However, the batteries will be produced in the U.S., the report suggests.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as Ford reportedly opened its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45562915/ford-will-let-nissan-use-part-of-kentucky-battery-factory-could-this-be-a-scaling-back-on-ev-ambitions">doors for Nissan </a>to use the company's flagship EV battery production plant in Kentucky, amid a projected $5.5 billion loss on EVs in 2025.
The company has said that U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs would cost them over $1.5 billion, with company executive chair Bill Ford also expressing concern about the GOP's proposal to axe the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45732185/whats-going-on-with-ford-stock-monday-2"> $7500 EV credit</a>.&nbsp;
The company also hiked prices of some of its<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45277938/ford-hikes-prices-of-select-mexico-produced-vehicles-amid-auto-tariff-uncertainty-report"> Mexico-produced EVs</a>, including the Mustang Mach-E, Bronco Sport and Maverick Pickup truck.
