WiSA Technologies shares are trading higher after the company announced it received stockholder approval to purchase the Datavault intellectual property and information technology assets of privately held Data Vault Holdings.

Here's how we look at 2025 priorities:
<ul>
<li>First, we're laser focused on moving ahead with the potential acquisition anchored by the LOI. The next step is a definitive agreement to acquire that business.</li>
<li>We'll continue to market, distribute, install and sell both CLMBR and FORME to businesses and consumers worldwide continuing on the path we have demonstrated in Q3 and guided in Q4</li>
<li>We also expect to further strengthen our balance sheet to reinforce our ability to execute scaled M&amp;A more opportunistically.</li>
<li>We are already discussing additional, scaled acquisitions beyond the announced LOI, and will continue to identify and conduct due diligence on such opportunities.
<ul>
<li>We'll also continue to ramp up and improve our direct communications with all of our shareholders – everyone should sign up for direct emails from us; contact us; and visit not just our news page, but also <a href="https://interactivestrength.com/insights/">our new Insights page</a> – where we'll offer commentary on both TRNR and our markets.</li>

In the current market session, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) stock price is at $254.02, after a 0.18% drop. However, over the past month, the company's stock spiked by 8.07%, and in the past year, by 31.58%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is not performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>Apple P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Apple has a better P/E ratio of 41.86 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 34.77 of the Technology Hardware, Storage &amp; Peripherals industry. Ideally, one might believe that Apple Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734984018_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.

A Look Into Apple Inc's Price Over Earnings

Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) shares are trading higher Monday. The upward momentum in the stock comes after the FDA approved the company&#8217;s Zepbound, a weight loss drug designed to treat moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/24/12/42637278/eli-lillys-zepbound-receives-fda-approval-for-obesity-linked-sleep-apnea-drug">in adults with obesity.</a>
What To Know: After the market close on Friday, Eli Lilly announced FDA approval of Zepbound (tirzepatide) as the first prescription medicine for adults with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea and obesity.
Obstructive sleep apnea is estimated to affect 50 million to 80 million people in the U.S., with an estimated 20 million suffering from moderate-to-severe forms. Clinical trials demonstrated the drug's efficacy, with nearly half of patients on the highest dose showing significant improvement in their apnea-hypopnea index, a primary diagnostic metric.
&#8220;Today, many cases of OSA go undiagnosed and untreated, leaving millions at risk for serious health consequences,&#8221; said Patrik Jonsson, executive vice president, and president of Lilly Cardiometabolic Health and Lilly USA. &#8220;Zepbound is the first medication that significantly improves moderate-to-severe OSA and aids in long-term weight loss in adults with obesity.&#8221;
The approval is expected to impact insurance coverage for Zepbound, potentially expanding Medicare benefits for obesity-related treatments. In addition to improved obstructive sleep apnea symptoms, adults on Zepbound lost an average of 45 lbs (18%) of their body weight in Phase 3 trials.
The approval also positions Eli Lilly ahead of competitors like Novo Nordisk, whose Wegovy lacks approval for sleep apnea. The company's ongoing $3 billion investment in manufacturing capacity underscores its focus on meeting demand for its diabetes and obesity treatments.
Eli Lilly reported third-quarter revenue of $11.44 billion in October, reflecting a 20% year-over-year increase. Zepbound accounted for approximately $1.26 billion in total revenue during the quarter.
LLY Price Action: Eli Lilly shares were up 3.11% at $791.63 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Eli Lilly Stock Is Rising Monday: What's Going On?

Check-Cap Shares Halted On Circuit Breaker To The Upside, Stock Now Up 386.4%

The semiconductor sector has had an electrifying run in recent years, but 2024 proved to be more selective. While some chipmakers soared to triple-digit gains, others <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/chipmakers">struggled to stay afloat. </a>
As traders look forward to2025, a fresh question emerges: Should you chase the winners, pick the laggards, or focus on undervalued opportunities with high analyst backing?
The iShares Semiconductor ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NYSE">SOXX</a>) delivered a 15.2% year-to-date gain as of Dec. 23, cooling off after a massive 65% surge in 2023. Within the group, performance varied wildly:
<ul>
<li>Top Performers: Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) rose 180%, while Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) gained 109%.</li>
<li>Biggest Laggards: Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) sank 60%, Microchip Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCHP#NASDAQ">MCHP</a>) fell 36%, and ON Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ON#NASDAQ">ON</a>) dropped 20%.</li>
</ul>
The key takeaway? The semiconductor market is far from homogenous, with companies diverging sharply based on their ability to capitalize on emerging trends like AI.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">5 Chip Stocks Analysts Are Betting On for 2025</h3>
Rather than chasing laggards or jumping on already overheated names, traders might want to focus on undervalued semiconductor stocks that align with analysts' bullish forecasts.

5 Semiconductor Stocks Wall Street Analysts Predict Could Soar In 2025

Video games and video game consoles have remained popular gift ideas for the Christmas holiday for many years, with the holiday helping to provide a boost to the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming"> overall gaming sector.</a>
Here's a look at whether parents and loved ones would have been better off buying a video game or stock in leading video game retailer GameStop Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) last Christmas and over the last five Christmas holidays.
What Happened: GameStop is one of the most popular retail destinations for people looking for video game gifts during the holidays. The company has also had one of the most popular stocks in recent years thanks to a historic short squeeze in 2021 and the notoriety of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/23/01/30412695/gamestop-short-squeeze-anniversary-a-look-back-at-david-vs-goliath-battle-and-whats-next">being a meme stock.</a>
A visit to GameStop around the holidays would find many new release games carrying a $69.99 retail price.
While children likely prefer an item like a video game that carries the instant gratification of being able to play it on Christmas Day and in the subsequent days, there are other gifts that might hold their value longer.
Video games often lose value over time as new versions of sports games come out or sequels to video game franchises. The release of new consoles over time often diminishes the value of older video games as well.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-give-stock-as-a-gift">Another gift idea</a> is giving the stock of public companies, but most kids or younger relatives might not understand the value of an investment and potential gains over the years.
Here's a look at the comparison between buying a video game versus buying stock.
Read Also:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/24/12/42425015/gamestop-q3-earnings-revenue-miss-4b-cash-no-more-offerings-planned-in-fiscal-year"> GameStop Q3 Earnings: Revenue Miss, $4B+ Cash, No More Offerings Planned In Fiscal Year</a>
 Stock Instead of Game: While many kids would have been happy with the latest video game last Christmas, it turns out they might be wishing that they got GameStop stock instead.
A new video game cost $69.99 last Christmas, while GameStop stock traded at a high of $17.20 on Dec. 22 last year, the last trading day before Christmas.
The same $69.99 used for a video game could have bought 4.07 GME shares. Based on a price of $30.80 at the time of writing, the GameStop shares would be worth $125.36 today, up 79.1%.
While the GameStop stock rose in value, chances are the $69.99 video game is now worth less than half of its original value due to being opened, used, and somewhat outdated.
Going back to past years, here's a look at how the same $69.99 invested in GameStop stock would have performed.
<ul>
<li>2019: Price on Dec. 23 $1.52, 46.05 shares with $69.99 investment, $1,418.34 today, +1,926.5%</li>
<li>2020: Price on Dec. 23 $5.59, 12.52 shares with $69.99 investment, $385.62 today, +451.0%</li>
<li>2021: Price on Dec. 23 $38.75, 1.81 shares with $69.99 investment, $55.75 today, -20.3%</li>
<li>2022: Price on Dec. 23 $20.62, 3.39 shares with $69.99 investment, $104.41 today, +34.4%</li>
</ul>
Add in the 2023 investment and over the past five Christmas shopping seasons, the investment would look like this:
<ul>
<li>$349.95 invested in GameStop instead of video games = $2,089.48 today, +497.1%</li>
</ul>
It's hard to predict if GameStop stock will trade higher in 2025 and if investing in the stock this Christmas will perform better than a video game. With a price of $30.80 today, the $69.99 investment used for stock instead of video games could buy 2.27 GME shares.

Monolithic Power Systems Unusual Options Activity

Walmart Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) shares are trading lower on Monday. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) filed a lawsuit against the company and Branch Messenger over concerns regarding junk fees. Here&#8217;s what <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42656254/tech-stocks-eye-christmas-gains-microstrategy-tumbles-as-bitcoin-dips-to-93000-whats-driving-markets-monday">you need to know</a>.
The Details: The CFPB has <a href="https://www.consumerfinance.gov/about-us/newsroom/cfpb-sues-walmart-and-branch-messenger-for-illegally-opening-deposit-accounts-for-more-than-one-million-delivery-drivers/#:~:text=WASHINTON%2C%20D.C.%20%E2%80%93%20Today%2C%20the,they%20could%20access%20their%20earnings">alleged</a> that Walmart and Branch Messenger forced drivers to open deposit accounts filled with junk fees. The regulator sued Walmart and Branch Messenger on Monday for requiring drivers to use costly deposit accounts to get paid and deceiving drivers about how they could access earnings.
The suit claims that Walmart opened accounts for &#8220;last mile&#8221; drivers in its Spark Driver program and told workers that they would be fired if they did not use the specific accounts. Furthermore, the lawsuit alleges that Walmart misled drivers about the availability of same-day access to earnings. 
"Walmart made false promises, illegally opened accounts, and took advantage of more than a million delivery drivers," said CFPB Director Rohit Chopra. "Companies cannot force workers into getting paid through accounts that drain their earnings with junk fees."
Benzinga has reached out to Walmart for comment.

The lawsuit claims that drivers were forced to navigate a complicated process to access their funds, and then encountered additional delays or fees when they opted to transfer the money to an account of their choice.
The government oversight agency stated that Spark Drivers paid over $10 million in junk fees to Branch Messenger in order to instantly transfer their earnings to a different account. 
The CFPB also claimed that Branch engaged in other illegal practices including failing to investigate errors, honor stop payment requests, maintain records and provide required disclosures.
According to Reuters, Branch Messenger representatives rejected the claims and accused the CFPB of &#8220;rushing&#8221; to file a lawsuit in an attempt to gain media traction. 
&#8220;Branch stands behind its model and services and we will defend this action vigorously,&#8221; the company reportedly said. 
WMT Price Action: At the time of writing, Walmart stock was down 2.01% at $90.39, according to data from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Watching Loar Holdings, Sportradar Group; Shares Spike Higher Amid CNBC Mentions Of The Stocks Under Segment Titled "Small Cap Strategy In 2025"

Rosenblatt analyst Steve Frankel maintained a Buy rating on Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/META/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $811</a>.
The stock is currently featured among the best ideas for the first half of 2025, reflecting key themes across Rosenblatt&#8217;s research universe.
Meta is in the midst of an impressive and durable artificial intelligence-driven growth renaissance, he says.
Revenues rose 22% in the first nine months of 2024 after growing 16% in 2023 and dipping 1% in 2022.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42560942/instagrams-ad-revenue-could-hit-32-billion-by-2025-driving-metas-growth-report" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Instagram&#8217;s Ad Revenue Could Hit $32 Billion by 2025, Driving Meta&#8217;s Growth: Report</a>
The growth is principally advertising, which accounts for 98% of sales, and AI-driven. AI is driving up daily usage on Facebook and Instagram, bolstering reel traction and improving ad efficiency.
Meta uses AI to adjust ad loads better, improve action sequences tied to targeting and executing ads, and help advertisers create and manage campaigns, Rosenblatt explained.
Ad revenue rose 19% in the third quarter of 2024, only 300 bps slower than the 22% growth of the second quarter of 2024, despite an 11.5 percentage point stiffer comparison.
From here, comparisons are steadier, suggesting recent traction can continue.
Frankel estimates 19% revenue growth in the fourth quarter of 2024, within the 12% to 20% guidance. We sustain that growth estimate into 2025.
With this revenue growth, Meta has room to absorb more investment.
The analyst assumes capex would increase 20% in 2025 to $46.6 billion, nearly flat as a percentage of sales. Hea also expects expense growth of 14% in 2025, accelerating from an 11% rise in 2024, and has adjusted EBITDA margins rising 110 bps to 62.6%.
Meta has nearly 3.3 billion people using its family of services daily. Its revenue growth affords more AI investment growth than others, a backdrop allowing AI-driven marketing services to improve more than others. With its business primarily performance marketing, a better marketing mousetrap supports share gains, the analyst says.
One risk is global trade volatility. Out-of-region revenue (mainly China and Asia marketers buying ads in the US) was 7% of Meta ad revenue in 2023 and dropped to 5% in the third quarter of 2024.
One could imagine a trade war generating disruption once President-elect Trump officially takes office. However, it is not clear that Trump wants that. He may be threatening tariffs to seek concessions. In a trade war, Chinese and Asian marketers like Temu and Shein could also react by sourcing more locally, supporting continued marketing.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Meta And TikTok</h2>
TikTok could be a hedge.
If the Supreme Court allows the law requiring a TikTok sale or ban to stand, then TikTok&#8217;s fate would rest in Trump&#8217;s hands, and he would have the ability to interpret and enforce legislation or push for new legislation.
His recent statements of support for TikTok suggest that he believes trade concessions from China could be won in return for keeping the app.
Alternatively, a whole-out trade war could result in Trump allowing a TikTok ban to come into effect.
Price Action: META stock is up 2.55% at $600.15 at last check Monday.

Looking into the current session, LendingClub Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LC#NYSE">LC</a>) shares are trading at $16.15, after a 1.88% decrease. Over the past month, the stock decreased by 1.16%, but over the past year, it actually increased by 81.26%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734982208_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Comparing LendingClub P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
LendingClub has a better P/E ratio of 35.78 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 34.53 of the Consumer Finance industry. Ideally, one might believe that LendingClub Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734982208_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
