Dutch Government Foreign Ministry Says Will Study New U.S. Restrictions On Export Of Chips Equipment To China; The Netherlands Shares U.S. Concerns Over 'Uncontrolled' Export Of Advanced Semiconductor Equipment; "Every Country Has Its Own Considerations" On National Security And Export Controls

According to Federal Reserve data, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41193824/are-you-rich-enough-to-be-in-the-top-1-heres-both-the-income-and-net-worth-you-need-to-rank-amon">average retiree's net worth</a> is $1.79 million. Sounds impressive, right? But here's the catch: that number doesn't tell the whole story. A small group of ultra-wealthy individuals significantly skews the average, making it more of an illusion than a reality for most.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
<li>The number of ‘401(k)' Millionaires is up 43% from last year —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/401k-millionaires"> Here are three ways to join the club.</a></li>
</ul>
The median net worth for retirees aged 65 to 74 is just $409,900 – less than a quarter of that lofty $1.79 million. And it gets worse for those 75 and older, whose median net worth drops to $335,600. These figures paint a much more realistic picture of what the average retiree is working with.
Why does this matter? While $1.79 million sounds like a comfortable retirement, $409,900 is far less than most experts recommend saving for retirement. In reality, not everyone has a million stashed away; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40234360/can-you-guess-what-percent-of-retirees-have-1-million-saved-heres-a-look-at-the-net-worth-of-peo">only about 10% of retirees</a> reach this milestone.
See Also: Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die."<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/warren-buffet-make-money-when-you-sleep"> Here&#8217;s how you can earn passive income with just $100.</a>
Financial advisors often recommend saving at least 10 times your annual salary by age 67 to maintain your lifestyle in retirement. They suggest benchmarks to get there: save 1x your salary by 30, 3x by 40, 6x by 50 and 8x by 60. For example, if you earn $100,000 a year, you should ideally have $300,000 saved by 40 and $1 million by 60. Compare this to the median net worth of retirees and most Americans are falling behind.
The reality is even starker when you look at the broader population. Nearly half American households have no retirement savings at all. For those who do, the average 401(k) balance for people nearing retirement (ages 60–69) is just $182,100, according to Vanguard data. Even among diligent savers, these numbers fall well short of the 6x or 8x benchmarks recommended by experts.
A median net worth of $409,900 might seem like a solid foundation, but it doesn't stretch as far as you hope. For instance, if you invest it and generate a 5% return, that's about $20,500 annually. Add in Social Security, which averages around $20,000 annually and your total is roughly $40,500 annually.
Trending: ‘Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">You can invest TODAY for just $0.26/share with a $1000 minimum.</a>
In a low-cost area, this might be manageable – but it's far from luxurious. Add in inflation, rising health care costs and the unexpected, like needing long-term care and it quickly becomes clear that $409,900 is not enough.
A lack of savings can lead to financial strain in retirement, especially as credit-card debt among retirees is on the rise. EBRI.org reports that over the past 20 years, both the percentage of older people carrying debt and the amount of debt they carry has increased by 50%.
So, where does your net worth fall on the spectrum? Are you ahead of the curve or is there work to do?
If you're not where you want to be, now is the time to take action. Consider increasing your savings rate, exploring additional income streams or consulting a financial advisor to develop a plan tailored to your needs. Remember, it's never too late to improve your financial future.

The Average Retiree Has A Net Worth Of $1.79 Million – Are You Ahead Of The Curve?

In the current market session, IBM Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>) stock price is at $227.20, after a 0.09% decrease. However, over the past month, the company's stock spiked by 9.64%, and in the past year, by 41.01%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is not performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1733171416_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Evaluating IBM P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
IBM has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 96.16 of the IT Services industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1733171416_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.

Core Scientific, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CORZ#NASDAQ">CORZ</a>) shares are trading lower Monday potentially following the company's announcement of a proposed offering of $500 million in convertible senior notes due 2031. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CORZ/news">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: The notes are being offered in a private placement to institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These senior notes will be unsecured obligations. They will accrue interest payable semi-annually and mature on June 15 2031, unless converted, redeemed, or repurchased earlier.
Core Scientific has provided conditions under which the notes can be converted to cash, shares or a combination of both. The company also outlined specific scenarios for redemption and repurchase, including an option for noteholders to require repurchase if certain fundamental changes occur.
The proceeds from this offering are earmarked for general corporate purposes, including working capital, operating expenses and potential acquisitions. The terms of the notes, including the interest rate and conversion rate, will be finalized upon pricing the offering. However, concerns surrounding increased debt and the potential impact on shareholder equity appear to be weighing on the stock.
CORZ Price Action: Core Scientific shares were down 10.7% at $15.92 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Riot Games is introducing a significant update to its terms of service for creators, extending its policies to cover misconduct that occurs off-platform, including during broadcasts or content creation related to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming">its games. </a>
The change, which will go into effect on Jan. 3, 2025, aims to hold creators accountable for their behavior even when they are not engaging directly within Riot&#8217;s games.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New Restrictions Apply To Off-Platform Conduct</h3>
The update clarifies that penalties can now be imposed for actions that violate Riot&#8217;s terms of service, even if the misconduct takes place outside the game itself. 
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/24/12/42270630/gta-6-fans-analyze-playlists-and-combat-ai-chaos-one-year-after-first-trailer">GTA 6 Fans Analyze Playlists And Combat AI Chaos, One Year After First Trailer</a>
Specifically, if a creator uses hateful language or engages in inappropriate behavior while streaming or creating content related to Riot's games—regardless of whether the actions occur in-game or not—penalties can be issued.
"If you say or do things that break our terms of service while broadcasting or creating content about our games, we can restrict access to your Riot accounts (and suspend your Partner privileges if you are part of our Partner program)," the company<a href="https://www.riotgames.com/en/news/creator-related-updates-riot-privacy-notice-terms-of-service"> said</a> in a statement on its website. 
This means that creators who are part of Riot's Partner program, as well as non-partners, could face account suspensions or restrictions based on off-platform conduct related to the company&#8217;s titles.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A More Comprehensive Enforcement Strategy</h3>
In addition to extending penalties for off-platform misconduct, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/24/10/41367265/riot-games-lays-off-27-developers-as-part-of-league-of-legends-restructure">Riot Games</a> announced that it would also impose restrictions on access to a player's entire Riot account for any violations of its terms of service. 
This includes suspending access to all of Riot's games and services if the conduct is deemed to break the company's guidelines.
