Twenty-five years ago, Nokia Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOK#NYSE">NOK</a>) stood tall as the undisputed leader of the mobile phone industry. In 2000, the Finnish telecom giant was valued at $204.28 billion.&nbsp;
By contrast, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) was a struggling computer company with a market capitalization of just $5.13 billion, making Nokia worth nearly 40 times more than the now-dominant tech titan.
The same year, Nokia released the legendary 3310, a durable, user-friendly phone that became an instant classic. It sold over 128 million units globally, <a href="https://medium.com/@shrutamdesai/nokia-3310-just-a-mobile-phone-or-more-22280babe9ba">according</a> to Medium.
However, just seven years later, everything changed. In 2007, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/01/30336631/the-iphone-was-unveiled-16-years-ago-heres-how-much-1-000-invested-in-apple-stock-after-the-debut-is">introduced the</a> iPhone, ushering in the smartphone era and sealing the fate of Nokia's once-thriving dumb phone empire.

Within a few years, Apple overtook Nokia—and nearly every other mobile manufacturer—in both innovation and market share. Today, Nokia's market cap is at $128.13 billion, while Apple is the third most valuable company in the world with a $2.99 trillion market capitalization.
Now, the script appears to be flipping again.
Apple, despite being one of the most valuable companies in history, has been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45486193/why-is-apple-still-behind-on-ai-expert-dissects-reasons-behind-iphone-maker-lagging-likes-of-microsoft-and-amazon-despite-poaching-googles-ai-chief">slow to embrace the artificial intelligence</a> revolution that is reshaping the tech industry.
Meanwhile, rivals like Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google, Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and new-age startups like OpenAI are sprinting ahead with consumer and enterprise AI products.
The question now echoing through the corridors of the tech industry is whether Apple's lagging progress in AI could mirror Nokia's decline—a once-dominant player caught flat-footed by the next wave of innovation.

Eddy Cue, a senior executive at Apple, has also hinted that AI could have the same disruptive impact on Apple as the iPhone once had on Nokia.
During his testimony in the DOJ's antitrust case against Alphabet, Cue warned that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45488603/apples-ai-powered-home-services-strategy-could-upend-yelp-angi-goog-insider-says-trust-data-and-ux-key-in-this-500b-market">iPhone itself could lose relevance</a> within the next decade, adding, "As crazy as that sounds."
Jony Ive, Apple's former design chief, has also referred to smartphones and laptops as "legacy products," implying they no longer define the future of computing. His remark came as OpenAI shared <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45640879/openais-sam-altman-says-6-5b-deal-with-jony-ive-to-build-ai-companions-could-add-1-trillion-in-company-value-report">plans to develop</a> a line of AI-driven devices in collaboration with the renowned designer.
According to Gene Munster, managing partner at Deepwater Asset Management, OpenAI now presents the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45599511/apple-faces-first-serious-threat-in-20-years-as-openai-acquires-iphone-makers-former-design-chief-jo">most serious competitive threat</a> to Apple in the past two decades.
While Apple is rumored to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/45712700/apples-ai-struggles-to-keep-pace-with-rivals-ahead-of-wwdc-2025">unveil new AI features</a> at its Worldwide Developers Conference on June 9, the pressure is mounting.
Price Action: Over the past five years, Apple shares have risen by 142.34%, though they are down 17.63% year-to-date, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Former hedge fund manager Martin Shkreli expressed bullish views on Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) while cautioning investors about the stock&#8217;s inherent volatility during an interview with popular PLTR investor Amit Kukreja.
What Happened: Shkreli, popularly known as "Pharma Bro," provided a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FtuFqCsCyE">detailed</a> analysis of Palantir's enterprise artificial intelligence implementation strategy, explaining how the company helps Fortune 500 businesses automate complex processes using large language models. 
&#8220;What Palantir does is they take LLM and go to businesses that don&#8217;t understand how to implement them across enterprises,&#8221; Shkreli said in conversation with Kukreja.
Shkreli projected the company could achieve $16 billion in free cash flow within five years, potentially justifying a trillion-dollar valuation. He emphasized Palantir&#8217;s 60% free cash flow margins and compared the investment opportunity to Google&#8216;s early public offering. 
&#8220;There&#8217;s no reason they can&#8217;t be a $10 trillion company,&#8221; Shkreli said, citing the company&#8217;s total addressable market spanning all Fortune 500 inefficiencies. 
Palantir&#8217;s current market cap stands at $310 billion, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>. 
However, he warned investors about execution risks, noting &#8220;one bad quarter and it&#8217;s down 50%.&#8221; Shkreli characterized the stock as requiring &#8220;execution to perfection&#8221; from management.

Why It Matters: Shkreli&#8217;s analysis comes amid strong market performance for Palantir. The company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45233062/palantir-analysts-boost-their-forecasts-after-q1-results">reported first-quarter revenue</a> of $883.86 million. 
Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives projects the stock could reach above $400 per share, calling Palantir the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45655507/tech-analyst-expects-palantir-stock-to-rise-above-400-as-ai-revolution-kicks-into-gear">&#8220;Messi of AI&#8221;</a> and predicting a trillion-dollar market cap within two to three years.
Palantir raised full-year 2025 revenue guidance to $3.89-3.90 billion from prior guidance of $3.74-3.76 billion. The company now expects adjusted free cash flow between $1.6-1.8 billion, up from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43485885/pharma-bro-martin-shkreli-defends-palantirs-valuation-amid-24-surge-says-ai-firms-cash-flow-justifies-expensive-price">previous guidance of $1.5-1.7 billion</a>.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has discovered a major food stamp fraud and bribery scheme, misappropriating millions of taxpayer dollars. This has led to the arrest of a USDA employee and five others.
What Happened: The USDA, along with the FBI and the U.S. Attorney's Office, has indicted six individuals in connection with a bribery and fraud scheme involving the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), allegedly resulting in over $66 million in unauthorized transactions, stated a federal press release on Friday.
The defendants, namely Michael Kehoe, Mohamad Nawafleh, Omar Alrawashdeh, Gamal Obaid, Emad Alrawashdeh and Arlasa Davis, are charged with &#8220;conspiracy to steal government funds and to misappropriate U.S. Department of Agriculture benefits,&#8221; as per a press release.
&#8220;This fraud was made possible when USDA employee Arlasa Davis betrayed the public trust by selling confidential government information to the very criminals she was supposed to catch,&#8221; declared U.S. Attorney Perry Carbone.
According to the indictment, the scheme started in 2019 with the formation of a network that distributed 160 unauthorized electronic benefit transfer (EBT) cards to stores throughout New York, illegally processing more than $30 million in EBT transactions.
The group also faces accusations of submitting fraudulent USDA applications, misusing license numbers, and falsifying documents to register unauthorized stores.

Why It Matters: The Trump administration had been vocal about its intentions to revamp food assistance programs. In February, the new leadership at the USDA, including Kailee Buller, the chief of staff, had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43901558/snap-benefits-in-focus-trump-admin-targets-bidens-food-assistance-policies">criticized </a>the previous administration for what they termed as &#8220;financial mismanagement&#8221; of food benefits. The Trump administration had pledged to correct these issues.
On the other hand, the rollout of the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) food box initiative had been met with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/05/45522362/we-have-no-details-says-food-program-director-as-trumps-maha-boxes-threaten-730000-seniors-grocery-lifeline">uncertainty and criticism</a>, making it difficult for food organizations to plan ahead. The sudden changes and lack of communication from the Trump administration had also been a point of concern. 
The 2026 budget proposal aims to cut the $425 million Commodity Supplemental Food Program, replacing it with &#8220;MAHA boxes&#8221; sourced directly from U.S. farmers, a move that could affect the grocery lifeline of over 730,000 seniors.

Trump Administration Shuts Down $66 Million Food Stamp Fraud And Bribery Scheme, Arrests USDA Employee And 5 Others

Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) co-founder Vitalik Buterin said Friday that the blockchain's base layer will be scaled tenfold in about a year.
What happened: Buterin was speaking about ecosystem developments at a fireside chat at ETHGlobal Prague 2025.
"I think we should scale L1 by about 10x over the next year and a bit based on delay," the cryptocurrency mogul stated when asked &#8220;how fast&#8221; the recently proposed changes would be implemented.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Kartik Talwar &amp; Vitalik Buterin I Opening Ceremonies I ETHGlobal Prague 2025" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/zlqheiMPuhE?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
</figure>
Once that is accomplished, Buterin stated that the team will &#8220;take a breather&#8221; and review how far they have progressed on the decentralization goals. He said that a hard fork could then be done to "tie up loose ends."
A hard fork occurs when a new blockchain version emerges that is incompatible with the original version. Networks undergo hard forks to implement necessary changes.

Why It Matters: The mainnet, or Ethereum's base layer, has been battling a sharp dip in transaction activity. According to <a href="https://etherscan.io/chart/dailyethburnt">Etherscan</a>, the number of ETH burned has plummeted from a yearly high of 4,274 in mid-January to less than 1,000 in the previous month.
Since a portion of the transaction fees is burned, the dip was indicative of fewer transactions on the chain.
Buterin&#8217;s comments <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44893218/ethereums-vitalik-buterin-suggests-major-overhaul-to-improve-network-efficiency-as-transaction-fees-plunge-to-5-year-lows">follow his proposal</a> for a long-term solution to improve the scalability and efficiency of the network&#8217;s execution layer, i.e., Layer-2 solutions. He theorized that, in some situations, implementing the plan might result in efficiency gains of over 100x.
Price Action: At the time of writing, ETH was exchanging hands at $2,492.06, down 0.70% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) experienced a decline in sales in China compared to rivals like Nio Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>), Xpeng Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPEV#NYSE">XPEV</a>), Li Auto Inc.

What Happened: Li Auto experienced 17% growth in deliveries with 40,856 vehicles delivered in May, while Nio and Xpeng posted over 33,525 and 23,321 deliveries each, a report from Barron's <a href="https://www.barrons.com/articles/chinese-ev-makers-tesla-sales-4da484e4">on</a> Sunday revealed.
Meanwhile, Chinese giant BYD's BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle) sales grew 40% year-on-year, as the company delivered 204,369 EVs in May.
However, Elon Musk's EV giant recorded around 58,000 April sales in China, including exports, and the company's sales performance in the first eight weeks of Q2 2025 declined 23% YoY, as per the report.
Why It Matters: The report comes in as Tesla has experienced a growth in May as the company posted more than 11,000 registrations in China for two consecutive weeks, despite a poor start to the month with a little over 3,000 new registrations.
Despite this, Tesla's poor run continues throughout multiple markets as the EV giant reported a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/eurozone/25/05/45616006/teslas-european-woes-see-no-end-april-sales-crash-49-as-rivals-race-ahead-in-ev-market">49% drop in sales</a> in the European market during April, as BYD overtook the company for the first time.
However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45589714/teslas-2025-dark-chapter-over-analyst-says-ai-autonomous-to-lift-valuation-end-black-cloud-over-stock">analysts are optimistic</a> about the company owing to June 12's Robotaxi launch in Austin as well as developments in the company's FSD tech.&nbsp;
BYD, on the other hand, continues to expand its presence in the global market while it<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/45715047/byds-aggressive-pricing-triggers-ev-rat-race-stock-tumbles-authorities-voice-concern"> faces scrutiny from Beijing</a> over the company's aggressive discount strategy that has started a price war in the Chinese domestic EV market.
Elsewhere, Li Auto recently beat analyst expectations following the company's Q1 earnings call, where CEO Li Xiang announced the company's plans to release <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/05/45691082/tesla-rival-li-auto-will-release-2-new-suvs-this-year-ceo-li-xiang-hints-at-companys-first-sedan">2 new fully-electric SUVs</a> this year.

Tesla's China Sales Slump While BYD And Li Auto Post Strong Gains: Report

Life360, Inc. ("Life360" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LIF#NASDAQ">LIF</a>, ASX: 360))), today announced its intention to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $250 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2030 (the "notes") in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Life360 also expects to grant the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, for settlement within a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the notes are first issued, up to an additional $37.5 million aggregate principal amount of notes.
Description of notes
The notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of Life360, will accrue interest payable semi-annually in arrears and will mature on June 1, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Noteholders will have the right to convert their notes in certain circumstances and during specified periods. Life360 will settle conversions in cash or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at Life360's election.
The notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at Life360's option at any time, and from time to time, on or after June 5, 2028 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of Life360's common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time and certain other conditions are satisfied. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.
If certain corporate events that constitute a "fundamental change" occur, then, subject to a limited exception, noteholders may require Life360 to repurchase their notes for cash. The repurchase price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.
The interest rate, initial conversion rate and other terms of the notes will be determined at the pricing of the offering.
Use of proceeds
Life360 intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to fund the cost of entering into the capped call transactions. Life360 intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include acquisitions or strategic investments in complementary businesses, products, services or technologies. If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional notes, then Life360 intends to use a portion of the additional net proceeds to fund the cost of entering into additional capped call transactions as described below.

As Donald Trump&#8216;s administration nears completion of a proposal to ease big bank rules, Wall Street&#8217;s megabanks are largely expected to cheer the lower supplementary leverage ratio (SLR), allowing them to hold fewer capital reserves against their assets.
What Happened: Analysts largely agree that the Trump administration's push to ease big bank rules, particularly the SLR, is a boon for banks and could stimulate broader economic growth.
Gennadiy Goldberg, the head of U.S. rates strategy at TD Securities, <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/31/trump-administration-prepares-to-ease-big-bank-rules-00377347">told </a>Politico that easing capital rules for the banks will free the capital to buy more U.S. Treasuries
However, Phillip Basil, Better Markets&#8217; director of economic growth and financial stability, told Politico that lowering big banks&#8217; capital requirements heightens financial stability risks, accusing the banking industry of exploiting recent Treasury market turmoil as a pretext to push for long-sought regulatory relief.
Meanwhile, Kepp Loeffler, the administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration, said that Small businesses &#8220;can win with a level playing field – ESPECIALLY combined with tax cuts and deregulation.&#8221;
