For one teen living abroad, aging out of childhood came with an unexpected setback — the loss of Social Security survivor benefits, despite still being enrolled in high school. The student, currently residing in the Philippines, shared their experience on Reddit's <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/SocialSecurity/comments/1lo1jfp/ssa_benefits_cut_off_at_18_still_in_high_school/">r/SocialSecurity</a>, detailing a months-long struggle to reinstate benefits and receive back pay after turning 18 in October.
The teen had been receiving Social Security benefits as a dependent of their American father, who qualified for Social Security Disability Insurance. Under <a href="https://www.ssa.gov/pubs/EN-05-10137.pdf">Social Security rules</a>, these benefits can continue past age 18 if the student is still enrolled full-time in high school — but only if they complete and submit <a href="https://www.ssa.gov/forms/ssa-1372.pdf">Form SSA-1372</a>, a school attendance certification form.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Form Submitted — But Lost in the Shuffle</h2>
"I've followed the rules, submitted everything (twice!), called for help, and done everything I was supposed to—but I&#8217;m still being left in the dark," the student wrote.&nbsp;
They say they followed the steps precisely: their school completed its section of the SSA-1372 form on September 5, and the student mailed it shortly after. After some delivery concerns, they resent it using a more secure courier service later that month.
Despite this, a termination notice from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45601283/social-security-checks-could-shrink-for-450000-retirees-as-government-resumes-seizing-benefits-over-student-loan-defaults">Social Security Administration</a> arrived just before the student's 18th birthday. A second attempt to submit the form was made in October. Still, by June this year — more than eight months later — no benefits had resumed and no back payments had been received.
"We also tried calling the SSA toll-free number multiple times, but every agent seems to say something different," the student wrote. "One agent told us they could see a note and that the documents were being processed. But when we called again and spoke to someone else, they claimed they didn't see any record of receiving my forms at all."

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Miscommunication and Misdelivery</h2>
A key issue may be where the form was sent. The student followed mailing instructions that pointed to a Veterans Affairs office in Manila. Some commenters on Reddit urged the student to send the form to the U.S. Embassy in Manila, rather than the VA office.&nbsp;
This confusion isn't unusual, according to commenters in the thread. One noted that if the case ends up at the Program Service Center — the office that handles student benefits — it can take months due to a growing backlog.&nbsp;
&#8220;It's not uncommon if it takes up to a year," the commenter said. "But once they get to your case, you'll get a lump sum payment for the 6 months you were a full time high school student at an accredited school."

U.S. citizens are generally eligible to receive payments abroad, and the Philippines is one of the countries where payments can be sent. However, for non-citizen dependents or survivors, eligibility may depend on meeting specific requirements — such as having lived in the U.S. for at least five years.
In this case, the student believes their high school meets all the necessary SSA requirements. Their principal even confirmed that a similar situation had occurred before — and the previous student was eventually paid in full.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Still Waiting, Still Hoping</h2>
The teen graduated from high school in May and should have remained eligible for benefits until then. Despite multiple submissions, confirmation attempts, and a missed callback appointment from SSA, they are still waiting for resolution.

'I've Followed The Rules — But I'm Still Left In The Dark': Teen Abroad Loses Survivor Benefit After Turning 18, Still Fighting For Back Pay

A stronger-than-expected labor report just crushed any hopes that the Federal Reserve would lower rates this month—despite speculation from Wall Street and direct demands <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">from President Donald Trump.</a>
In June, the U.S. economy added 147,000 jobs, topping forecasts, while the unemployment rate ticked down to 4.1%, according to the latest Bureau of Labor Statistics data released Friday. Those numbers make it hard for the Fed to justify an imminent rate cut, as inflation remains above the 2% target. 
That's a problem for Trump, who's been repeatedly calling out Fed Chair Jerome Powell for delivering large rate cuts. 
But the Fed appears unfazed—at least for now.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Economists Just Don&#8217;t See Near-Term Fed Rate Cuts</h3>
Bank of America economist Aditya Bhave said the data was "solid," adding that, "average job growth is above breakeven, and the u-rate is down. This should let the Fed stay in wait-and-see mode."
He did flag a few concerns—like weaker private-sector job growth at just 74,000 and flat aggregate private income—but not enough to change the outlook. 
Bhave reiterated his base case that "the Fed won't cut this year," especially if the economy holds up and inflation trends higher, possibly to 3% in the coming months.
That puts markets in a bind.
Over the past few weeks, traders had priced in what some economists called a "Goldilocks" path—a scenario where inflation stays tame enough to allow cuts even with decent job growth. But Bhave pushed back on that idea, saying, "We always thought this scenario was the least likely."
If he&#8217;s right, either stocks or short-term bond yields, or both, are probably mispriced.
"Given the strong jobs numbers along with the extension of tax cuts and potentially higher tariff levels…the Fed is much less likely to cut rates this month than many were talking about earlier this week," said Chris Zaccarelli, chief investment officer at Northlight Asset Management. 
Zaccarelli believes a cut could still happen—just not right away. "The Fed is likely to wait until later in this quarter or even until the fourth quarter." 

Other economists echoed that timeline. Bill Adams, chief economist at Comerica Bank, said, "The Fed has a maximum employment mandate, not a job growth or GDP growth mandate. If the unemployment rate is holding steady…the job market won't give the Fed a reason to cut."
Adams sees a rate cut as possible in October or December, "but more likely to be driven by cooler-than-expected inflation than by an increase in unemployment."
Nancy Vanden Houten, lead U.S. economist at Oxford Economics, said the Fed still has reason to wait. "While there were some elements of softness beneath the better-than-expected headlines, the June employment report was strong enough to allow the Federal Reserve to keep policy on hold," she said.
She doesn't expect action until the inflationary impact of tariffs fades. "We expect the inflationary impact of tariffs to have peaked by the fourth quarter, allowing the Fed to start cutting rates in December."
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Investors Still Betting On Cuts</h3>
Despite the Fed's cautious tone, markets are still leaning toward at least two rate cuts this year. Fed futures currently imply 55 basis points of cuts by December 2025, according to CME Group Fed Watch. 
CFTC-regulated betting exchange Kalshi shows there's a 37% chance of two 25-basis-point cuts by December. As of Friday, Kalshi traders were pricing the following probabilities for Fed cuts by December 2025:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>0 cuts (0 bps): 15%</li>
<li>1 cut (25 bps): 22%</li>
<li>2 cuts (50 bps): 36%</li>
<li>3 cuts (75 bps): 17%</li>
<li>4 cuts (100 bps): 5%</li>
</ul>
That means the market sees a 58% chance of at least two cuts by year-end, and a 22% probability of three or more, despite the strength of the labor market and the potential second-half inflationary risks from tariffs.

Trump And Wall Street Want Rate Cuts—The Data Says: Keep Waiting

Aerospace startup Muon Space has <a href="https://www.muonspace.com/press/muon-space-completes-146-million-series-b-to-scale-satellite-constellations-for-defense-and-commercial-missions">booked</a> $146 million in total Series B funding, allowing the satellite constellation manufacturer to ramp up production at a new 130,000-square-foot complex in San Jose, California. Its book of business grew by leaps and bounds in 2024, adding over $100 million in contracts. The high-tech team is growing as well, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/muon-space">doubling</a> in one year to over 150 employees.
The four-year old company collected $89.5 million in new funds, with $44.5 million in equity and $45 million in credit facilities. The round follows August 2024's $56 million <a href="https://www.muonspace.com/press/muon-space-secures-56m-series-b-funding-surpasses-100m-in-customer-contracts-in-2024-including-landmark-agreement-with-snc">cash haul</a>. Congruent Venture led the investor syndicate, along with Activate Capital, Acme Capital, Costanoa Ventures, Radical Ventures and ArcTern Ventures. Congruent Managing Partner Joshua Posamentier touted the installment, saying, "Muon is building the high-performance scale solution the space industry has been missing."

Aerospace engineers Jonny Dyer, Paul Day, Dan McCleese, Reuben Rohrschneider and Pascal Stang incorporated Muon Space in 2021. All have strong resumes in propulsion, mission control and large-scale operations, according to <a href="https://techfundingnews.com/muon-space-series-b-funding-satellite-constellation">Techfundingnews</a>, with "shared expertise in scalable hardware design and a vision for vertically integrated satellite systems." It lists its smaller competitors as Planet, Icey, and Spire.
SpaceX and <a href="https://www.airbus.com/en/products-services/space/telecommunications-and-navigation-satellites/low-earth-orbit-satellite-constellation">Airbus</a> popularized 21st century satellite constellations, but they have been around for more than three decades. The basic manufacturing tech constructs and deploys multiple satellites into a coordinated network, using streamlined and automated production techniques. The system design has many applications, especially those requiring continuous global coverage. The Starlink satellite system is probably the best-known example of a modern constellation.

In addition to new funding, Muon announced the acquisition of Starlight Engines, a 2022 propulsion startup described as "pioneering the first commercially available solid propellant Hall-effect thruster systems – a safe, affordable and scalable alternative to traditional propulsion systems." The company is now integrating the tech into production, expecting the acquisition to "accelerate delivery times while improving both schedule reliability and overall mission performance.&#8221;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The San Jose facility will support production at scale, ramping up to 500 mini-satellites (100 to 500 kg) per year. According to Muon, it meets strict <a href="https://www.ul.com/services/national-industrial-security-system-certification">UL 2050</a> security standards that let the manufacturer bid for lucrative commercial and defense contracts. The full integration environment has allocated 70,000 square feet to manufacturing and 30,000 square feet to cleanroom environments, both powered by a 300 kilowatt solar array. Standardization is lowering production costs, with many systems <a href="https://www.airborne.com/are-you-ready-for-the-future-of-satellite-constellation-production/#:~:text=Automation%20provides%20the%20answer.,waste%20while%20improving%20structural%20performance.">sharing</a> components and modular designs.&nbsp;

Satellite constellations now number in the <a href="https://eos.com/blog/satellite-constellation/">thousands</a>, evidence this tech has blossomed into a high-demand manufacturing niche. But it's always tough for startups to compete against industry whales. The company says it will meet this challenge with a vertically integrated approach that offers an &#8220;industrial-scale alternative, unlocking faster delivery, improved mission performance, and greater resilience across the space value chain.&#8221;
"We're focused on delivering mission-optimized satellite constellation systems to customers at unprecedented speed," says CEO Dyer. And Muon Space's growing book of business, highlighted by 2024's new contracts, predicts a bright future for the maturing startup.&nbsp;

Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 6.57 days to cover their short positions on average.
<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.

What Does the Market Think About Anglogold Ashanti?

In the current session, the stock is trading at $59.93, after a 2.62% increase. Over the past month, Frontdoor Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FTDR#NASDAQ">FTDR</a>) stock increased by 3.43%, and in the past year, by 78.68%. 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/2025/1751655616_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>A Look at Frontdoor P/E Relative to Its 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. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 19.33 in the Diversified Consumer Services industry, Frontdoor Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 19.02. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751655617_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.

The couple, with one of the spouses being the original poster, earns a combined $260,000 per year. They have a 3-year-old in daycare and a 6-year-old in a summer program that has been disappointing so far. Other Redditors shared their experiences with raising children during the summer and how they are navigating the current environment.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Try Gyms</h2>
One of the top comments came from a Redditor who encouraged the community to give gyms a try. Many gyms have activities for children and offer structured activities. The commenter specifically mentioned two gyms that offer a wide range of activities.
"Both the YMCA and Lifetime Fitness do full summer camps with drop-off and pick-up flexibility. All day programming, but time by the pool, weekly fieldtrips, etc."
If you work out at the gym each day, you may want to take your kids with you during some of those days. That way, they're getting in good exercise, which will let them use their energy early in the day.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Create Structure</h2>
Many Redditors emphasized the value of creating structure in your children's schedules. Some parents were stay-at-home moms until they saw it was too hard for them to commit to structured schedules for their children at a consistent rate.&nbsp;
It's also an uphill battle since many parents in the neighborhood may also have their kids in a summer camp. This trend plays out in many areas, and it gives parents fewer options for their kids if they don't want to embark on a summer program.
"We would all be miserable with an extended period of no structure," one Redditor stated. Another person commented right under that post in agreement.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Prioritize Correctly</h2>
While you have to work to put food on the table, you don't want to overdo it either. It makes more sense to work extra hours and pursue every good opportunity when you are single, but the dynamic shifts for many people when they become adults. One Redditor summed this trend up nicely.
"Make sure you are spending time wisely at work and not just working for work&#8217;s sake. Cut back rigorously on [stuff] that doesn't matter. When I had no kids, I put in 60 hours regularly; as a parent, I put in 35-45, depending on the situation. My performance reviews never got worse."
The original poster responded to the comments with some thoughts and a career journey that encapsulates many individuals who are grappling between their work and being present for their children.
"My current work is actually closing in the middle of July. And I&#8217;ve already lined something else up, but it&#8217;s gonna take a little [time] to be credentialed, and so I am going to pull the kids from everything and spend some nice weeks with them at home. But the new job is definitely gonna be longer hours at first. But, it&#8217;s also good for the career. But, I don&#8217;t want to forget what&#8217;s important for sure."

'The World Is Set Up Against Families With Two Working Parents' – A Couple Earning $260,000 Per Year Shares Their Struggle With Summer Camps

Arkadiy Amiryan, Chief Operating Officer of Veles Finance, challenged the idea that user-friendly crypto trading bots are responsible for flash crashes or amplifying herd behavior in the digital asset market. 
Instead, he pointed to social media hype and high-profile endorsements as the primary drivers of sudden price swings, emphasizing that bots alone do not destabilize the market. 
"In my opinion, cryptocurrency market crashes happen due to loud and sometimes reckless statements from the most popular people," Amiryan told Benzinga in an interview. "Someone says or writes something in X—and then we see a rapid fall of some project. This looks like unfair play."
He emphasized that scams and speculative tokens, rather than automated strategies, pose the more immediate threat to market stability.
Amiryan highlighted that trading bots, like those offered by Veles Finance, are neutral tools that execute predefined strategies without emotional bias. 
&#8220;Bots don't suffer from FOMO, but the blind spot is always risk management. If users fail to set proper safeguards, that's where problems can arise,&#8221; he said.
Founded in 2022 and based in Dubai, Veles Finance provides a no-code, cloud-native platform enabling both novice and advanced traders to deploy customized automated trading strategies across leading exchanges such as Binance, Bybit, and OKX. 
Veles currently supports over 49,000 traders, with $418 million in total bot deposits and over $79 million in cumulative user profits.
Veles Finance on Thursday expanded its reach through a strategic partnership with cryptocurrency exchange Bitget, integrating its automated trading bots into the Bitget platform. 
This collaboration gives Bitget's global user base direct access to Veles's customizable bots across both spot and futures markets.

Amiryan acknowledged the growing accessibility of trading bots, thanks to user-friendly platforms like Veles, but stressed the company's focus on responsible trading. 
&#8220;We always educate our users about risk management. Trading bots are powerful, but users must understand their strategies and market conditions to avoid unnecessary exposure,&#8221; he said.
The Bitget-Veles partnership also provides users with advanced risk management features, including dynamic stop-losses, multi-take profits, and trailing profit mechanisms. 
Veles's professional-grade backtesting engine further allows users to refine strategies using historical market data before committing capital.
As automated crypto trading continues to grow, Amiryan emphasized that scalability will not come at the cost of user-centricity. 
&#8220;Our priority is always our users. Without them, we cannot grow. As we scale, we'll keep improving user experience, ensuring that customization and control remain at the core of our product.&#8221;
Industry participants like Amiryan believe that while algorithmic trading may introduce efficiencies, the key to navigating crypto's inherent volatility lies in robust education, risk awareness, and strategic execution, not the abandonment of automation.

The Surprising Factor Behind Crypto Flash Crashes—And It's Not Trading Bots

Forget apple pie and fireworks—Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) just pulled off the most explosive <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46257412/is-the-market-open-on-july-4th-everything-you-need-to-know">Fourth of July</a> in history, hitting $109,433 during the day. That's not just a milestone, it's a monument.
Back in 2012, a Bitcoin cost you seven bucks and some hope, noted a <a href="https://x.com/DocumentingBTC/status/1941085985472954766">post</a> on X. In 2016, it was cheaper than a tank of gas. 
Now? It could buy you a Tesla Model 3 (costs around $44k to $56K in the U.S.) and still leave enough for a long weekend in Miami.

Bitcoin didn't just beat inflation—it obliterated every traditional asset class over a decade. The 10-year CAGR from 2015 to 2025? Over 100% annually. Show us another Fourth of July tradition with returns like that.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Investor Angle: Is This Still The Beginning?</h2>
With talk of a U.S. Bitcoin strategic reserve heating up and ETF flows keeping crypto flush, Bitcoin's legitimacy is no longer in question. What is up for debate is valuation—can the rally continue from here?
Crypto-native plays like Coinbase Global Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) and miners like MARA Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) are already riding the fireworks. But even conservative investors are quietly allocating to Bitcoin via regulated ETFs, betting this Fourth of July trend still has legs.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">BTC: Earnings Every Year</h2>
America celebrates independence once a year. Bitcoin's been earning it every year. From $0.01 in 2010 to over $100K in 2025, it's become the most relentless freedom trade of our time.
This Fourth of July, Bitcoin didn't just party—it planted a flag.

Bitcoin's 4th Of July Boom: Enough For A Tesla And A Tan

A recent Reddit <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Salary/comments/1lo6qma/is_reaching_100kyear_in_the_us_easy_i_guess_it/">thread</a> lit up with debate after a person claimed that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43895999/making-over-100000-a-year-heres-how-big-your-retirement-nest-egg-should-be-in-your-40s-50s-and-60s-if-you-want-to-retire-rich">earning $100,000 a year</a> in the U.S. is &#8220;easy&#8221; if you follow a clear path and put in the work. The poster, who identified themselves as an IT project manager making $150,000 annually, said the blueprint is there for anyone willing to sacrifice and stay consistent.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Clear Path, Not Effortless</h2>
&#8220;Blows my mind how many people line up to argue with me every time I say that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/46044025/earning-more-than-100000-feels-like-a-dream-to-many-but-when-you-look-closer-some-of-these-jobs-arent-as-difficult-as-youd-think">earning $100k per year</a> in the US is easy,&#8221; wrote the original poster. &#8220;Now, does it require you getting off your ass and doing more than working fast food? Absolutely. Will anyone hand you a $100K/year job with little or no effort on your part? Nope. Nor should they.&#8221;

According to them, the &#8220;easy&#8221; part isn&#8217;t about lack of effort; it&#8217;s that there are many well-documented ways to get there. Whether it&#8217;s engineering, trades, or IT, the steps are no longer a mystery.
&#8220;You still need to do your part,&#8221; they wrote. &#8220;And ‘doing your part' often requires multiple years of sacrifice: Doing real, actual learning, and doing things that make you uncomfortable.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Simple, But Not Easy</h2>
Many commenters pushed back, saying the word &#8220;easy&#8221; ignores how much effort and privilege it can take. One person summed it up by saying, &#8220;Figuring out how to make $100K is simple. Actually doing it is hard, not easy.&#8221;
Another added, &#8220;I guess I would word it as &#8216;easily achievable with a lot of effort and good decision making.'&#8221;
Some pointed out that location, field, and upbringing play a huge role.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Opportunity Isn't Equal</h2>
The original poster acknowledged that where you live matters, but argued that many people can move or train for remote jobs, especially post-COVID. &#8220;To those with drive and vision… they leave town, learn a skill or a trade, come back home, work in the small hospital here or become electricians, plumbers, etc.&#8221;
Still, others emphasized systemic barriers, noting that not everyone has the support system or the luxury to fail and bounce back. &#8220;Imagine trying to get a job while homeless. How do you appear? How do you act with a lack of sleep or safety?&#8221;
One particularly upvoted comment noted, &#8220;People value different things. Some of the smartest people I've met don't care about making more money. They want <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42301100/most-americans-dont-see-wealth-as-the-key-to-financial-success-heres-what-matters-more-to-59-of-them">free time and a fulfilled life</a>.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Matter Of Definition</h2>
While the debate over semantics continued, one thing became obvious: most agreed that making six figures in the U.S. is possible, but not easy.

Is Earning $100K/Year In The U.S. 'Easy?' A Project Manager Says It Requires 'Getting Off Your Ass And Doing More Than Working Fast Food'

Prestige Consumer's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PBH#NYSE">PBH</a>) short percent of float has fallen 9.48% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 1.66 million shares sold short, which is 4.87% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 6.32 days to cover their short positions on average.
<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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Prestige Consumer has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Prestige Consumer's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Prestige Consumer's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.54%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

In the current market session, ExlService Hldgs Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXLS#NASDAQ">EXLS</a>) share price is at $45.42, after a 1.72% spike. Moreover, over the past month, the stock decreased by 5.67%, but in the past year, spiked by 41.87%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751652021_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>ExlService Hldgs 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. 
ExlService Hldgs has a better P/E ratio of 33.83 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 29.42 of the Professional Services industry. Ideally, one might believe that ExlService Hldgs 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/2025/1751652021_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.

&#8220;I liked to show people that I didn&#8217;t do any work, and that I didn&#8217;t go to classes and I didn&#8217;t care,&#8221; Gates said in a 2005 Q&amp;A session with&nbsp;Warren Buffett,&nbsp;as&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2018/03/16/bill-gates-quit-this-bad-habit-before-he-became-successful.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a>&nbsp;by CNBC.
Gates said he would prepare for tests at the last minute.
&#8220;People thought that was funny. That was my positioning: the guy who did nothing until the last minute.&#8221;
You may not be a billionaire like Bill Gates, but you can uncover hidden gems in the stock market using our proprietary data and pattern recognition —&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/06/46157351/benzingas-stock-whisper-index-5-stocks-investors-secretly-monitor-but-dont-talk-about-yet-71" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">check out five stocks flying under the radar that deserve your attention.</a>
Gates recalled the need to break this &#8220;very bad habit&#8221; when he entered the business world. The billionaire dropped out of Harvard after two years.
&#8220;When I went into business that was a really bad habit and it took me a couple years to get over that.&#8221;
Gates acknowledged that while procrastination might have seemed like a cool character trait in college, it quickly became a liability in the business world, where last-minute work is generally frowned upon.
&#8220;Nobody praised me because I would do things at the last minute.&#8221;
Gates said in the business world, he worked hard to reverse course and tried to emulate the students at Harvard &#8220;who were always organized and had things done on time.&#8221;
While he was able to get rid of the bad habit, Gates confessed in the 2005 interview that he still hadn&#8217;t fully learned not to put things off.
&#8220;I&#8217;m still working on it, but procrastination is not a good habit.&#8221;

10 Information Technology Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Zohran Mamdani, fresh off a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46162859/trump-threatens-to-cut-federal-funding-for-nyc-if-zohran-mamdani-doesnt-do-the-right-thing-as-future-mayor-if-he-does-get-in-im-going-to-be-president">primary win</a> and favored to become New York's next mayor, is stirring up debate with a bold pitch: open five city-owned grocery stores, one in each borough.
The plan is designed to bring affordable, fresh food to areas with limited access to supermarkets.&nbsp; But some critics say it sounds more like a political stunt than a solid solution.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is This A Fix For Food Deserts Or A Government Overreach?</h2>
In many low-income New York neighborhoods, food insecurity affects more than 30% of residents, <a href="https://council.nyc.gov/data/emergency-food-in-nyc/">according</a> to the City Council. Mamdani says the $60 million pilot would let the city buy and sell at wholesale prices, avoid rent and property tax, and partner with neighborhoods on stocking decisions. But he hasn't shared how the stores would be built or operated, or whether workers would be on the city payroll.

Responding to a recent <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/PoliticalDiscussion/comments/1lm7h6m/what_do_you_think_of_the_idea_of_stateowned/">post</a> on Reddit that asked: &#8220;What do you think of the idea of state-owned grocery stores?&#8221; supporters see it as a way to step in where the private sector won't. &#8220;If private enterprise isn&#8217;t serving the need, this is called a &#8216;market failure,'&#8221; one commenter wrote. &#8220;Market failure conditions are the exact conditions under which government is best entering a market.&#8221;
Others compared it to existing public services. &#8220;Nobody blinks twice at the [Department of Defense, Social Security Administration, or United States Postal Service] not turning a profit because they provide a needed service,&#8221; another person said. &#8220;Government entities exist to provide services to people who need it, even if it&#8217;s at a net loss.&#8221;
Proponents also pointed to the military commissary system as proof that government-run grocery stores can work. &#8220;They are significantly cheaper than regular grocery stores,&#8221; one commenter noted, adding that they charge &#8220;the cost of an item plus 5%.&#8221;
Still, many remain skeptical.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Critics Warn About Efficiency And Costs</h2>
Detractors argue that grocery stores are already a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45556328/jeff-bezos-shrugged-off-dot-com-hype-in-1999-betting-amazons-future-on-customer-obsession-internet-shminternet-that-doesnt-matter-he-said-theres-never-any-conflict-between-customers-and-shareholders-interests-and-walmart-should-say-the-same">razor-thin margin</a> business. &#8220;There is no way this is going to end well for taxpayers.&#8221; However, the counterargument by someone was that &#8220;Having healthy food be more accessible to poor people is a good use of my tax money. Better than most things it currently pays for.&#8221;
Others questioned the premise that the government could run stores better than private companies. &#8220;Labor is a huge cost of business&#8230; facilities costs don&#8217;t go away just because you&#8217;re &#8216;the government,'&#8221; one commenter pointed out.
Some warned the plan could backfire by hurting existing small grocers. &#8220;Wouldn't that have a tendency to push private stores out of business over time, since they couldn't compete with a government-subsidized store?&#8221; one person asked.
The debate also touched on whether food deserts in the city are truly a pressing issue. &#8220;Are there food deserts in NYC? Isn't everything a public transit stop away?&#8221; one commenter asked. But another replied, &#8220;Most of the Bronx, especially the eastern area, is considered a food desert. Upper Brooklyn is also considered a food desert.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trying Something New Or Wasting Taxpayer Money?</h2>
Some people struck a middle ground, suggesting the idea is worth testing. &#8220;Let NYC try this one. Let Kansas City try another. Let Chicago or Oklahoma City try a third option. See what works best,&#8221; one Reddit user wrote.
But not everyone bought into the optimism. &#8220;This whole idea is based on an ideological blind spot that maximizing profits inherently leads to bad results,&#8221; a commenter argued. &#8220;As long as there&#8217;s fair competition, seeking to maximize profits leads to good outcomes.&#8221;
In the end, Mamdani&#8217;s proposal has stirred passionate debate over the role of government, the realities of grocery economics, and what it really takes to fix access to food. Whether it&#8217;s a step forward or a political sideshow, many agree: it&#8217;s at least worth the conversation.
