In a bid to navigate the impending U.S. tariffs, South Africa and several other countries have been reportedly seeking advice from Goldman Sachs since late February.
What Happened: South African officials have been consulting with Goldman Sachs to devise strategies to mitigate the impact of the looming tariffs and appease President Donald Trump. The country was reportedly advised by Goldman that everything comes down to Trump's feelings. 
The bank recommended that South Africa consider revising certain laws, including one requiring Black ownership in some companies and another permitting the government to seize land from landowners to address racial disparities, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/finance/goldman-sachs-offers-advice-on-tariffs-to-countries-scrambling-to-please-trump-a138835f">reported </a>The Wall Street Journal.
Goldman Sachs did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment. 
Despite the advice from Goldman Sachs, a spokesperson for President Cyril Ramaphosa stated that the recommendations &#8220;would&nbsp;not have found favor with&nbsp;the government,&#8221; which is committed to addressing the imbalances of apartheid.
Goldman Sachs&#8217; advice is not limited to South Africa, as it has also been advising other nations, including France, Saudi Arabia, and Japan,&nbsp;on negotiating with the Trump&nbsp;administration. The Japanese government was reportedly reluctant to alter its tax policies solely to satisfy the administration. Countries are seeking advice from Wall Street banks on handling Trump's global trade war, with bankers warning that negotiations may involve unrelated political or symbolic concessions.
However, White House spokesperson Kush Desai stated that trading partners keen on negotiating a deal with Trump must &#8220;reduce the tariff and non-monetary barriers&#8221; causing the U.S. trade deficit, adding that any outside advice to the contrary is &#8220;pure speculation.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The move by South Africa and other countries comes in the backdrop of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45038824/treasury-secretary-scott-bessent-says-its-up-to-china-to-de-escalate-trade-tensions-india-to-be-the-first-trade-deal-to-be-signed">escalating </a>trade tensions globally. On Monday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called on China to de-escalate trade tensions, pointing out China's higher export rate to the U.S. as a key factor contributing to the current tariff imbalance.
Furthermore, Goldman Sachs had predicted that the U.S. tariffs on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45033064/16-million-chinese-jobs-under-threat-amid-escalating-us-china-trade-war-predicts-goldman-sachs">Chinese imports</a> could put up to 16 million jobs in China at risk, particularly in the manufacturing sector, highlighting a gravity of the situation. This global context underscores the significance of the U.S. trading partners&#8217; consultations with Goldman Sachs and other Wall Street bankers as the countries seeks to protect its own economic interests.

Mark Zuckerberg says that the cost-value equation for colleges is cracking as degrees keep getting pricier, yet the jobs they promise are no longer guaranteed.
What Happened: Speaking on comedian Theo Von's &#8216;This Past Weekend&#8217; podcast, the Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) founder, who famously quit Harvard, warned that ballooning tuition and $1.77 trillion in U.S. student-loan <a href="https://educationdata.org/student-loan-debt-statistics">debt</a> are steering the system toward "a reckoning."
Average published tuition at public four-year schools climbed to $11,610 for in-state students in 2024, with private nonprofits topping $43,000, College Board data <a href="https://research.collegeboard.org/trends/college-pricing/highlights">shows</a>.​ "You graduate when you're in debt … and you're starting off in this big hole," Zuckerberg told Von, adding that many majors fail to deliver clear job pathways.

"There&#8217;s going to have to be a reckoning," Zuckerberg warns. "People are going to have to kind of figure out whether that makes sense."

Federal figures put total student-loan liabilities at roughly $87 billion in new borrowing each year, and 28 percent of undergraduates now take out loans. With monthly payments resuming after a three-year pause, delinquencies are rising.
Questioning college was once off-limits, Zuckerberg said, but attitudes are shifting as Gen Z weighs boot camps, certificates, and direct-to-work tech jobs.​ &#8220;It&#8217;s sort of been this taboo thing to say, like, maybe not everyone needs to go to college&#8230; I think people are probably coming around to that opinion a little more now than maybe like ten years ago," says Zuckerberg.
Why It Matters: Zuckerberg isn't the first to question the necessity of college degrees in 2025. Elon Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/04/38319479/elon-musk-thinks-college-is-basically-for-fun-and-to-prove-that-you-can-do-your-chores-says-degr">actively dismisses</a> the need for formal credentials, too. Although Musk earned degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, he walked away from a Stanford Ph.D. program after just two days.
Peter Thiel, the billionaire PayPal co-founder and early Facebook investor, challenges higher education even more directly. The Stanford graduate with philosophy and law degrees believes <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42366606/peter-thiel-is-a-stanford-grad-but-thinks-college-is-such-a-waste-that-he-offers-100000-to-students-who-quit-compares-education-to-santa">college is so overrated</a> that he offers students $100,000 to drop out.

President Donald Trump will provide some relief to U.S. manufacturers by reportedly easing some duties imposed on foreign parts in domestically manufactured vehicles.
What Happened: Anonymous officials from the White House <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/trump-tariffs-autos-exceptions-fc634efd?mod=autos_news_article_pos1">told</a> the Wall Street Journal on Monday that car manufacturers paying the tariffs wouldn't be charged on materials like aluminum and steel, and tariffs already paid on these materials would be reimbursed to the manufacturers.
"This deal is a major victory for the President&#8217;s trade policy by rewarding companies who manufacture domestically, while providing runway to manufacturers who have expressed their commitment to invest in America and expand their domestic manufacturing," U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said in a White House statement.
Officials from the Trump administration shared that the move could be implemented on Tuesday, the report added. The president is also expected to visit Michigan — home to General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) — to mark 100 days in office.
Why It Matters: The Trump administration's decision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44798727/auto-stocks-rise-on-trumps-comments-about-supporting-us-car-companies-whats-going-on">provide some exemptions </a>in the tariffs on the auto sector had been teased by the President recently, as he had said that automakers "need a little time" to adjust to the new tariff environment and that Trump was "looking for something to help" the automakers.
Michigan-based auto groups had previously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44729157/michigan-auto-groups-criticize-trump-for-not-halting-auto-tariffs">criticized the Trump administration</a> for the auto tariffs, saying that the move would cast uncertainty over the employees and the supply chain. &#8220;Michigan&#8217;s signature industry and the supply chains and employees that sustain it will continue to endure the uncertainty and disruption of these fluctuating trade policies,&#8221; the groups said in their statement.
The auto industry in the U.S. currently faces uncertainty over the supply chain, which has been described as ‘complex' by companies, as the tariffs would cost the domestic auto sector <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44756759/new-research-shows-donald-trumps-25-tariffs-could-cost-auto-companies-108billion-report">over $108 billion</a>, according to some experts.
However, the move could provide a boost to the sector, especially Detroit-based automakers General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) and Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), as recently, ratings agency S&amp;P shared that the companies were at risk of receiving <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44806252/trump-tariffs-could-put-ford-gm-at-high-risk-of-negative-ratings-report">a negative rating </a>in light of the 25% tariffs.
Price action: GM currently trades for $47.24 on the NYSE, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Earlier this month, during testimony at the Department of Justice's antitrust trial against Google in Washington, OpenAI executive Nick Turley said the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/04/44941262/openai-once-tried-to-use-googles-search-technology-instead-of-microsoft-bing-due-to-quality-issues-was-rejected-now-sam-altmans-startup-says-itd-buy-chrome-if-forced-antitrust-sale-happens">company had tried to partner</a> with Google to improve ChatGPT's search capabilities.
However, Google declined, citing the involvement of too many competitors, according to an email presented at trial.
OpenAI has also secured $40 billion in funding, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44678864/openai-eyes-500-million-deal-to-acquire-jony-ive-and-sam-altmans-ai-hardware-startup-report">boosting its valuation to $300 billion</a>.

Jim Cramer believes excessive pessimism may be clouding Wall Street&#8217;s outlook, arguing that strong employment trends could prevent an economic downturn despite tariff concerns.
What Happened: &#8220;Will the tariffs hurt? Yes. Will prices go higher? Yes. Could there be shortages? Absolutely,&#8221; CNBC&#8217;s Cramer <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/28/continued-job-growth-could-help-ward-off-a-recession-jim-cramer-says.html?ref=biztoc.com">said</a> Monday. &#8220;But recessions revolve around employment, and there are still so many more jobs than we have people to fill them.&#8221;
Recession fears have grown amid President Donald Trump&#8216;s sweeping tariff hikes, especially those targeting China. However, Cramer maintains that companies are reluctant to lay off workers they might struggle to rehire when conditions improve.
&#8220;It&#8217;s difficult to derail an economy that is still creating jobs,&#8221; Cramer noted, predicting Friday&#8217;s labor report will be &#8220;fairly robust,&#8221; making it challenging to &#8220;slip into a full-blown recession any time soon.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Recent data support this optimism. March <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44645518/strong-jobs-report-offers-hope-but-will-it-be-enough-to-counter-tariff-turmoil">nonfarm payrolls surged by 228,000</a>, exceeding the three-month average of 195,000 and economists&#8217; forecasts of 135,000, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
While many <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45033463/as-china-downplays-trump-tariffs-with-5-growth-target-top-economist-warns-of-90-chance-of-a-us-recession-amid-trade-war">economists paint a bleaker picture</a>—including Apollo Global Management&#8216;s Chief Economist Torsten Slok, who predicted a &#8220;90% chance&#8221; of recession if current tariff levels persist—not all share this view. The CEO of Chevron Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>) recently stated there were &#8220;no signs of a recession at this point.&#8221;
Cramer suggested that while some businesses may suffer from tariff-induced price increases, consumers could adapt by turning to budget-friendly retailers like Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COST#NASDAQ">COST</a>) and Walmart Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>).
&#8220;These two retailers have more market power than any two companies I&#8217;ve ever seen,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They can negotiate lower prices with their suppliers to offset the tariffs, including the Chinese.&#8221;

Jim Cramer Dismisses Recession Panic: Says Tariffs May Sting, But Too 'Many Jobs' For Economy To 'Derail'

Billionaire and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk could potentially dodge over $2 billion in financial liabilities due to his sway over the U.S. government, according to a report by Senate Democratic committee staffers.
What Happened: Musk's &#8220;Department of Government Efficiency&#8221; (DOGE) has driven major changes in Washington, with President Donald Trump supporting Musk's push for cuts. On the day of Trump's inauguration, Musk's companies — including SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink, The Boring Company, and xAI — were dealing with at least 65 &#8220;actual or potential&#8221; regulatory or enforcement actions from 11 federal agencies, posing a potential liability of at least $2.37 billion.
Included in this is $1.19 billion in liabilities for Tesla over allegations of misleading statements regarding its autopilot and self-driving capabilities. Neuralink may also be liable for up to $281 million due to claims of misrepresenting the risks associated with its products. 
In reaction to the 44-page memo, Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) has asked for information from the five Musk-led companies on the federal investigations they faced before Trump&#8217;s inauguration. The White House has firmly denied any claims that Musk has leveraged his government role for &#8220;personal or financial gain,&#8221; stating "any assertion otherwise is completely false and defamatory."
Tesla did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment.

Why It Matters: The DOGE has found itself at the center of debate several times. Earlier this month, the House Democrats <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44888379/elon-musks-doge-under-fire-house-democrats-say-agency-is-building-unlawful-master-database-of-sensitive-us-data">expressed concerns</a> about DOGE, alleging that it was building a cross-agency master database that could potentially compromise privacy and national security.
Musk faces <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/02/43931361/elon-musks-spacex-pushes-to-install-starlink-in-us-airspace-network-raising-conflict-of-interest-concerns-and-threatening-verizons-2-billion-deal">conflict of interests with several agencies</a>, including the FAA, which oversees SpaceX, and the NHTSA, which is investigating Tesla and recently saw key self-driving experts fired.
Overseen by Musk, the department has reportedly saved $160 billion by eradicating <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45034082/elon-musks-doge-saves-160-billion-but-could-lead-to-billions-in-hidden-costs-for-taxpayers-warns-new-analysis-public-will-end-up-paying-for-this">wasteful </a>government spending. However, the same report highlighted that DOGE&#8217;s actions could cost taxpayers up to $135 billion in the same fiscal year, excluding the costs of defending multiple lawsuits against DOGE&#8217;s actions or the estimated loss in tax collections due to IRS staff reductions.
Meanwhile, during the recent Tesla conference call, Musk announced plans to <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44945402/wedbushs-dan-ives-raises-teslas-price-target-to-350-as-musk-promises-to-significantly-reduce-doge-time" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">dedicate more of his time to Tesla,</a> starting next month. Musk stated, "I'll continue to spend a day or two per week on government matters for as long as the President would like me to do so." 
He further added, "Starting next month, I&#8217;ll be allocating far <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44974342/elon-musks-wealth-skyrockets-by-billions-as-tesla-stock-rallies-after-billionaire-ceo-steps-back-from-doge">more of my time to Tesla."</a>
