Roblox Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBLX#NYSE">RBLX</a>) is intensifying its push to capture 10% of the global gaming market, leveraging artificial intelligence, genre diversification, and strategic brand partnerships as central pillars of its growth strategy. 
What Happened: The company, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45141775/why-is-roblox-stock-trading-higher-on-thursday">reported first-quarter 2025 revenue of $1.21 billion</a>, up 29% year over year and above analyst forecasts-continues to outperform expectations in both revenue and bookings, signaling robust demand and effective execution of its business plan.
CEO David Baszucki reaffirmed Roblox's ambitious target during the latest earnings call, stating, "We're gonna see 10% of the gaming market by consumer spending on the Roblox platform." 
Currently, Roblox holds about 3% of the gaming market, according to CFO Mike Guthrie, but management remains optimistic, citing the platform's resilience even during economic downturns and its appeal as a low-cost entertainment option.

Why It Matters: A key driver of Roblox's strategy is the integration of artificial intelligence tools to streamline content creation and enhance platform safety. The company now operates over 200 AI pipelines, with applications ranging from automated moderation to generative asset creation. 
Roblox is also broadening its genre offerings, targeting categories such as sports, racing, role-playing, and battle games. The company reported a 69% year-over-year growth in these tracked genres, reflecting successful diversification efforts.&nbsp;
Price Action: Roblox stock closed at $69.00 on Wednesday, up 2.91% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock edged up an additional 0.14%. Year to date, Roblox shares have gained 17.27%.
Roblox demonstrates stronger momentum and growth than rivals such as Unity Software Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/U#NYSE">U</a>), Take-Two Interactive Software Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTWO#NASDAQ">TTWO</a>), and Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EA#NASDAQ">EA</a>). However, the stock scores lower on valuation metrics, while maintaining a positive price trend from the short to long term, according to Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Sign up to learn more</a>.

After a news report claimed that Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45124373/tesla-board-explored-replacing-elon-musk-as-tesla-ceo-a-month-ago-report">looking to replace</a> CEO Elon Musk, a longtime Tesla bull dismissed the idea, calling the likelihood of such a move extremely low.
What Happened: On Thursday night, Gary Black, the managing partner at The Future Fund LLC, and a Tesla bull for years, addressed speculation about Musk's potential ouster in a post on X, dismissing concerns regarding the board seeking his replacement.
In his post, Black said if Musk stepped down as CEO but stayed on as a Chief Technology Officer or a Chief Product Officer, Tesla's stock could drop 5% to 10%. A complete departure, he warned, could trigger a 20% to 25% decline, wiping out nearly $220 billion in shareholder value.

Black&#8217;s post highlights the extent to which Musk still anchors Tesla&#8217;s $880 billion market cap, a key reason why he believes the &#8220;odds are low&#8221; that the board chooses someone to replace him.

Price Action: Tesla shares ended Thursday down by 0.58%, and are now down 1.06% after hours, in part due to the rumors and uncertainties surrounding a change in leadership.

Elon Musk's Exit As CEO Means 25% Drop In Tesla Stock Price: Gary Black Highlights Why Musk's Leadership Still Anchors Tesla's Valuation

On Thursday, Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) CEO Andy Jassy predicted a potential shift in consumer behavior reminiscent of the pandemic era while asserting that the e-commerce giant is doubling down on affordability.
What Happened: During <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/05/45151230/amazon-q1-earnings-double-beat-q2-guidance-ceo-focuses-on-making-customers-lives-easier-and-better">Amazon's first-quarter earnings</a> call, Jassy addressed questions about Amazon's medium-term strategy amid trade tensions and possible tariff hikes.
&#8220;It's hard to tell what's gonna happen with tariffs right now,&#8221; he stated, adding, &#8220;There's maybe never been a more important time in recent memory than than, you know, trying to keep prices low, which we're heads down, pretty maniacally focused on.&#8221;
Jassy highlighted that Amazon is taking several proactive steps, including purchasing more inventory in advance for products it sells directly and encouraging third-party sellers to do the same, to shield customers from potential price increases.

He also pointed out that during the pandemic, customer preferences changed in ways no one expected, and something similar could happen again.
Why It's Important: Amazon reported first-quarter net sales of $155.7 billion, marking a 9% increase from the same period last year and surpassing Wall Street's consensus estimate of $155.04 billion.
For the second quarter, the company expects net sales to range between $159 billion and $164 billion, representing year-over-year growth of 7% to 11%. Analysts, on average, are projecting second-quarter sales of $160.91 billion.
Earlier this week, it was reported that some Amazon sellers are opting out of Prime Day 2025 or <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45058018/trumps-145-china-tariffs-spark-seller-backlash-as-amazon-prime-day-2025-faces-pullouts-and-discount-cuts-report">reducing their discounts</a> due to high tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump on goods imported from China.
Price Action: Amazon (AMZN) shares rose 3.13% during Thursday&#8217;s regular session, closing at $90.20. However, the stock fell 3.21% in after-hours trading, reaching $184.10, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Amazon holds a robust growth score of 94.08% in the Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to see how it stacks up against</a> other leading e-commerce competitors.

Andy Jassy Predicts Pandemic-Like Consumer Shifts, Says Amazon Is 'Maniacally Focused' On Keeping Prices Low

Snap Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>) reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/04/45084721/snap-hits-900-million-users-beats-q1-estimates-but-stock-slides-on-uncertainty" rel="noreferrer noopener">first-quarter results</a> on Tuesday and announced it would not provide second-quarter guidance.
Snap reported first-quarter revenue of $1.36 billion, up 14%, topping the Street consensus estimate of $1.35 billion<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0429" rel="noreferrer noopener">.</a>
The company reported an adjusted loss of 8 cents per share, beating a Street consensus estimate of 13 cents per share.

Multiple Wall Street analysts cut their <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SNAP/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price targets on</a> the stock.
RBC Capital Markets analyst Brad Erickson maintained a Sector Perform rating with a price target of $12.
Canaccord Capital Markets analyst Maria Ripps maintained a Hold rating with a price target of $9, down from $10.
RBC Capital Markets: Snap&#8217;s first-quarter revenue was roughly in line with expectations, offset mainly by weakness in RoW and, to a lesser degree, Europe. The company&#8217;s DAUs were in line with the outlook and guidance. EBITDA came in materially ahead of expectations, driven by better cost discipline.
So far, in the second quarter of 2025, management notes a headwind for revenue, citing advertisers affected by the de minimis exemptions as an example. Regarding the infrastructure costs per DAU for the quarter, the company anticipates it will fall near the midpoint in the second quarter, with DAUs estimated to be around 468 million.
Investors recognize that Snap tends to lose share during moments of macro weakness, and this report will likely reinforce those views, particularly given Alphabet Inc (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&#8217;s much more balanced tone last week (also historically consistent).
Adding to the pain, investors also walked away from the call with unanswered questions regarding how to think about the regional exposure, i.e., China-based advertisers, and whether the weakness is more from APAC or non-China advertisers with China supply chain &amp; de minimis exposure.
Erickson is intrigued at Snap&#8217;s opportunity with Spotlight to drive engagement with accretive monetization over time, but given its platform changes are moving slowly and the platform&#8217;s tendency to underperform during softer macro periods, the analyst lacks arguments to get more constructive beyond that, the stock has come down.
Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) should be better off, given its similar level of advertiser depth, which can fill in auction holes left by the most affected advertisers.
Erickson projected second-quarter revenue of $1.31 billion.
Canaccord Capital Markets: Snap&#8217;s first-quarter results were solid relative to expectations, with MAUs eclipsing 900 million for the first time, total revenue coming in modestly above consensus, and profitability solidly above guidance.
Consistent with the past two quarters, advertising revenue growth decelerated slightly but increased ~9%, with DR revenue maintaining mid-teens growth and comprising 75% of total advertising revenue for the first time. Total active advertisers increased by 60% in the first quarter, reflecting efforts to onboard more SMBs onto the platform, and Snap is increasingly focused on ramping spend from medium-sized advertisers.
Other revenue delivered another quarter of robust growth thanks to Snapchat+, now at a $600 million revenue run rate.
Snap expects stable trends going forward. Global time spent watching content grew in the first quarter, reflecting continued investment in AI models to support better content ranking and personalization.
These new models can integrate new trends and user interaction signals at double the pace of prior models, which helped the number of views on Spotlight posts. For My AI, improvements to responsiveness drove a 55% increase in the number of My AI DAUs in the US.
Given macro-related uncertainty, Snap did not provide formal second-quarter financial guidance. Management noted that it has seen headwinds to start the quarter as the cohort of advertisers impacted by changes to the de minimis exemption has curtailed spending. The company did indicate that it was still growing quarter-to-date.
Price Action: SNAP stock closed lower by 1.63% to $7.83 on Thursday.

Analyst Cautions On Snap As Meta And Google Benefit From Ad Spending Shifts

Jack Dorsey, CEO of Block Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XYZ#NYSE">XYZ</a>), expressed excitement about the upcoming delivery of the firm&#8217;s first Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) mining hardware on Thursday, developed as part of its mining products suite, Proto.
What Happened:&nbsp;During the company&#8217;s first-quarter earnings call, Dorsey confirmed that Block was on track to deliver the mining chips and systems in the second half of the year. 
&#8220;And the reason we're so excited is because we've seen this huge opportunity with Bitcoin miners and the systems that they have to deal with on a regular basis,&#8221; Dorsey stated. He noted the huge potential of the Bitcoin hardware supply industry, estimating it as a $3-6 billion annual revenue opportunity.
Block <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/07/39721727/jack-dorseys-block-makes-historic-bitcoin-mining-chip-sale-to-core-scientific-our-first-mi">inked a deal</a> with leading miner Core Scientific Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CORZ#NASDAQ">CORZ</a>) last year to supply 15 exahashes per second (EH/s) worth of ASIC chips.

Talking about Proto, Dorsey stated that the company focused on reliability and flexibility and that they have been in close communication with customers to understand their needs.
&#8220;We have very close relationships with our vendors and our manufacturers, and building in the United States. So these are all things that add up to a pretty compelling product,&#8221; Dorsey added.
Why It Matters: Block has been striving to expand its Bitcoin mining business. It launched the Proto mining suite that consists of ASIC chips, mining rigs, and developer tools, with a special focus on supporting smaller players and home mining.
Dorsey previously voiced optimism in the suite&#8217;s potential to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43873297/jack-dorseys-block-is-really-excited-about-this-bitcoin-mining-initiative-that-aims-to-challenge-the-dominance-of-foreign-firms">challenge foreign dominance </a>in the Bitcoin mining industry
The&nbsp;focus on domestic manufacturing comes at a time when U.S. miners are bracing for potential business disruptions due to escalating trade tariffs with China, home to the world&#8217;s largest Bitcoin hardware makers. According to analysts, American miners were <a href="https://www.hashlabs.io/blog/how-trump-s-tariffs-will-affect-bitcoin-mining" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">looking</a>&nbsp;at a 22–36% increase in the cost of mining machines.

Price Action:&nbsp; At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $97,151.14, up 2.47% in the last 24 hours, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
Shares of Block bled 18.4% in after-hours trading after closing 0.02% higher at $58.48 during Thursday&#8217;s regular session.

WESCO International, Inc.

Gross margin was 21.1% in the first quarter, down 10 basis points sequentially and 20 basis points year over year. The decrease in gross margin primarily reflects a decrease in CSS and EES gross margins.

Operating cash flow totaled $28 million for the quarter. The company exited the quarter with cash and equivalents worth $681.6 million, with inventories worth $3.740 billion.

Parker-Hannifin Trims Outlook, But CEO Says Firm Ready To Handle Tariff Uncertainty

Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives raised his price target on Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) by 8% from $250 to $270, citing &#8220;incremental confidence&#8221; in the company&#8217;s India supply chain strategy amid ongoing tariff concerns.
What Happened: &#8220;This has been a core Street fear over the last month,&#8221; Ives wrote Thursday on X, noting that Apple&#8217;s manufacturing shift could &#8220;take the worst case scenario off the table for iPhone tariffs.&#8221; He also highlighted &#8220;improving&#8221; demand in China, a crucial market for the tech giant.
During Apple&#8217;s fiscal second-quarter earnings call Thursday, CEO Tim Cook revealed the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45156890/apple-ceo-tim-cook-warns-of-900-million-tariff-impact-in-june-quarter-expects-majority-of-iphones-sold-in-us-to-be-made-in-india">expects a $900 million cost impact</a> in the June quarter due to existing tariffs. Cook emphasized Apple&#8217;s strategic pivot to diversify manufacturing bases.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
&#8220;For the June quarter, we expect the majority of iPhones sold in the U.S. will have India as their country of origin,&#8221; Cook said. He added that Vietnam will now produce nearly all iPads, Macs, Apple Watches, and AirPods sold in the U.S.

Why It Matters: The manufacturing shift comes as Apple navigates potential tariff increases on Chinese imports. Cook explained that Apple&#8217;s current tariff exposure primarily relates to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45152493/apple-reports-strong-q2-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-installed-base-hits-all-time-high-across-all-segments-100-billion-buyback-and-more">February IEEPA-related tariff at 20%</a>, affecting U.S. imports of Chinese-origin products.

For the upcoming quarter, the company projects low-to-mid-single-digit revenue growth with a gross margin between 45.5% and 46.5%.
Previous analysis from Ives had warned that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44728758/trumps-tariffs-could-push-apple-iphone-prices-to-a-staggering-3500-says-top-analyst">iPhones manufactured in the U.S.</a> could cost as much as $3,500 if significant tariffs were implemented on Chinese imports.
Price Action: Apple Inc.&#8217;s stock closed at $213.32 on Thursday, up 0.39% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock declined by 3.78% to $205.25. Year to date, Apple shares are down 12.52%.
Apple stock performs well on quality metrics but ranks poorly on valuation, according to Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings. Additionally, the stock shows a negative price trend from the short to the long term. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Sign up to learn more</a>.

Why Consumer Goods Maker Church & Dwight Stock Fell On Thursday?

Strategy&nbsp;Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) executive chairman Michael Saylor expressed optimism about the growing adoption of the Bitcoin standard among businesses on Thursday.
What Happened: During the company&#8217;s first-quarter earnings call, Saylor described the growing trend of companies buying Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) for their treasury as a &#8220;virtuous cycle&#8221; and a &#8220;mutually beneficial competition.&#8221;
Saylor was asked about his views on other corporations aping Strategy&#8217;s playbook and how the firm aimed to retain its pioneering status in this area.
&#8220;The more companies that adopt the Bitcoin standard, the more legitimizing it is,&#8221; Saylor said. &#8220;As more companies adopt the Bitcoin standard, they're out there educating equity investors, and that brings more equity capital to the market.

The Bitcoin bull stressed that the entry of more companies will make investors more comfortable investing in the space.
&#8220;So I think the more companies that join, the better it is for Bitcoin,&#8221; Saylor noted. He anticipated that this would hasten&nbsp;the transition to the Bitcoin&nbsp;standard, pressuring companies that have not yet adopted to do so over time.
Why It Matters: Strategy has outpaced the rest of the market in Bitcoin adoption, actively issuing convertible debt and other fixed-income products to add the top cryptocurrency to its reserves. As of this writing,

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIOT#NASDAQ">RIOT</a>) began hoarding Bitcoin, employing similar stock offerings. According to&nbsp;<a href="https://bitcointreasuries.net/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BitcoinTreasuries.com</a>, MicroStrategy was the largest Bitcoin corporate holder, with a stash worth more than $53.72 billion, followed by MARA and Riot.
Strategy reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/guidance/25/05/45152230/strategy-q1-earnings-bitcoin-treasury-company-raises-its-btc-yield-and-btc-gain-targets-for-2025">financial results</a> for the first quarter on Thursday after the bell, with revenue missing analyst estimates and an adjusted loss of $16.53 per share. 
Price Action:&nbsp; At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $96,982.25, up 2.29% in the last 24 hours, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;
