What Are Stock Tokens And How To Trade Them? Robinhood's New Offering Merges Owning Stocks With Blockchain Tech: Here's How It Works

Tesla Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46087914/teslas-europe-sales-slide-for-5th-straight-month-elon-musk-led-ev-giants-market-share-shrinks-to-1-3">European woes</a> continue to plague Elon Musk's EV giant as it recorded a sharp sales decline in Denmark and Sweden during June.
What Happened: Tesla recorded 1,282 new registrations for its vehicles in the country during June, while registrations in Sweden fell 64.4%, according to data sales data obtained by Reuters on Tuesday.
The company's sales in Denmark fell 61.57% in June compared to last year, the report suggested.
Why It Matters: The news comes as Tesla had previously recorded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45739130/elon-musks-tesla-defies-european-slump-with-norway-sales-growth-in-may-model-y-comes-to-the-rescue">strong sales in Norway</a>, largely driven by the new Model Y. However, the company has recorded poor sales figures in several regions throughout the globe. Recently, data revealed that the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46162850/tesla-sales-in-canada-have-dropped-to-nearly-zero-says-researcher-expects-elon-musk-led-ev-giant-may-report-losses-starting-2026">sales in Canada</a> have almost dropped to zero.
Experts like Future Fund LLC's managing director, Gary Black, also paint a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/06/46161226/gary-black-warns-tesla-q2-deliveries-will-disappoint-says-cheaper-models-could-cannibalize-sales-and-see-ideal-re-entry-22-below-current-levels">less-than-ideal picture</a> for the company. The investor said that Tesla's Q2 delivery figures will disappoint people.
Tesla also recently announced the exit of Musk's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46132042/teslas-q2-sales-going-to-s-says-gary-black-after-tsla-north-america-and-europe-chief-omead-afshars-exit">key aide Omead Afshar</a>, who analysts estimate was let go due to the company's poor sales performance for the better part of a year.

Elon Musk-Led Tesla's European Woes Worsen With Sales Down Over 60% In Sweden And Denmark

The U.S. Department of Justice&nbsp;(DOJ) has taken a significant step against North Korea&#8217;s illicit financial activities, which involve remote IT workers operating within American tech firms.
What Happened: The DOJ has announced a series of actions aimed at dismantling North Korea&#8217;s money-making operations, which are conducted by covert remote IT workers within U.S. tech companies. The funds generated are allegedly used to finance North Korea&#8217;s nuclear weapons program and for data and cryptocurrency theft. As per the DOJ, the fraud scheme impacted over 100 U.S. companies.
U.S. Attorney for the District&nbsp;of Massachusetts,&nbsp;Leah B. Foley, stated, &#8220;Thousands&nbsp;of North Korean cyber operatives&nbsp;have been trained and deployed&nbsp;by the regime to blend&nbsp;into the global digital workforce&nbsp;and systematically target U.S. companies.&#8221;
The DOJ&#8217;s crackdown resulted in the arrest and indictment of U.S. national Zhenxing &#8220;Danny&#8221; Wang and Keija Wang who are accused of running a long-standing fraud operation out of New Jersey—one that allegedly generated over $5 million for the North Korean regime. 
They face charges&nbsp;of conspiracy to commit wire&nbsp;fraud, money laundering, and identity&nbsp;theft. Additionally, eight other individuals, including&nbsp;six Chinese nationals and two&nbsp;Taiwanese citizens, have been indicted for their involvement in the scheme.
Five North Korean nationals have been charged with wire fraud and money laundering for allegedly stealing over $900,000 in cryptocurrency from two unidentified companies by using fake or stolen identities, according to the Department of Justice.

Why It Matters: North Korea&#8217;s use of remote IT workers to conduct illicit financial activities has been an ongoing concern. In May 2025, it was reported that&nbsp;Kim Jong Un&#8216;s North Korea was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45706958/kim-jong-uns-north-korea-infiltrates-us-remote-jobs-with-the-help-of-everyday-americans-funneling-17">infiltrating</a> American businesses&nbsp;via remote jobs, with the help of unwitting U.S. citizens. This operation, run by a former waitress turned TikTok personality, saw North Korean workers overseas posing as U.S.-based tech employees and securing jobs at more than 300 American companies, collecting $17.1 million in pay.
Earlier in May, a report by cybersecurity firm DTEX revealed that&nbsp;North Korea&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45488568/fortune-500-companies-exploited-to-fund-north-koreas-nuclear-program-through-mafia-style-cybercrime-operations-report">cybercrime </a>operations&nbsp;were being likened to a mafia organization controlled by Kim Jong Un. The operations involved a global network of North Korean technologists who infiltrated Fortune 500 companies and laundered money to support Kim&#8217;s nuclear and ballistic missile ambitions.
Despite these crackdowns, North Korea&#8217;s cybercrime operations have continued to thrive. In June 2025, it was reported that&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/46140769/north-korean-hackers-top-crypto-exploits-list-but-another-state-may-surprise-you">crypto hacks</a> and exploits had surged to record levels, with total losses exceeding $2.1 billion across at least 75 incidents. The largest single event was the $1.5 billion hack of Dubai-based crypto exchange Bybit in February, which was attributed to North Korea.

US Busts $5 Million North Korean IT Scam — Americans, Chinese, Taiwanese Among Those Arrested

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) is positioning itself as the next Amazon.com Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Amazon Web Services, according to a senior executive who believes the data analytics company offers superior solutions for complex enterprise problems.
What Happened: Ted Mabrey, Global Head of Commercial at Palantir, said on X Tuesday that his company is &#8220;building the next AWS&#8221; and urged entrepreneurs to leverage Palantir&#8217;s platform rather than compete with it. &#8220;If you want to build the next Palantir, you should build it on Palantir,&#8221; Mabrey wrote.
The executive&#8217;s comments came in response to Brendan Falk, founder and CEO of a Stealth Startup, who announced his company was pivoting away from enterprise artificial intelligence transformations after struggling with implementation challenges. Falk cited lengthy sales cycles, complex system integrations, and high maintenance costs as primary obstacles.
Mabrey argued that Palantir has already solved these fundamental problems through years of specialized development. &#8220;All the lessons in the thread are definitely true and the problems that we have beaten our heads against a wall solving with very talented people in a very specialized environment for a very long time,&#8221; he stated.

Why It Matters: When asked about specific unsolved problems more valuable than those AWS addressed, Mabrey responded with a single word: &#8220;Ontology.&#8221; In AI terminology, ontology refers to structured frameworks that help machines interpret and reason about data, mirroring human understanding.
Palantir has been aggressively expanding its commercial partnerships, recently announcing strategic alliances with SAP SE and Divergent Technologies. CEO Alex Karp highlighted the &#8220;extremely valuable&#8221; combination of Palantir&#8217;s Ontology and Foundry <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45536259/palantir-partners-with-sap-to-fuse-ontology-foundry-and-enterprise-dataceo-alex-karp-calls-it-extremely-valuable">platforms with enterprise data systems</a>.
The company&#8217;s stock has surged 426% over the past year, closing Tuesday at $136.32. However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45536259/palantir-partners-with-sap-to-fuse-ontology-foundry-and-enterprise-dataceo-alex-karp-calls-it-extremely-valuable">investors face valuation risks</a>, with price-to-sales ratios between 80-105x and forward P/E multiples exceeding 300x.
Mabrey emphasized that Palantir&#8217;s technological foundation enables startups to focus on higher-value problems rather than rebuilding basic infrastructure. &#8220;Really all of the value is in the problems we haven&#8217;t gotten to yet,&#8221; he concluded.

Palantir Is Building The Next AWS, Says Top Exec: Urges Startups To Build On PLTR To Tackle 'More Valuable' Problems Than Amazon Solved

Investor Kevin O&#8217;Leary admits that the best portfolio he&#8217;s ever come across didn&#8217;t belong to a hedge fund manager, but his mother, Georgette O&#8217;Leary.
What Happened: Speaking on the Diary of A CEO podcast on Monday, the Shark Tank investor revealed that his mother had managed a personal portfolio for over five decades in absolute secrecy. &#8220;She kept her account secret from both of her husbands,&#8221; O'Leary said. &#8220;She wanted her own independent money.&#8221;
Her strategy, he says, was simple, but disciplined. She would take 20% of her paycheck each week, allocating it to two asset classes, &#8220;stocks that paid dividends, large-cap stocks and telco bonds,&#8221; he says.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/25/06/46131850/none-of-that-matters-kevin-oleary-says-you-might-have-to-sacrifice-your-marriage-your-dog-and-even-your-moms-love-to-succeed">&#8216;None Of That Matters&#8217; — Kevin O&#8217;Leary Says You Might Have To Sacrifice Your Marriage, Your Dog, And Even Your Mom&#8217;s Love To Succeed</a>
O&#8217;Leary notes that her portfolio followed two important rules: she never invested more than 5% in any one stock or bond, and never had more than 20% in any one sector. When a holding exceeded those thresholds, she trimmed it. Most importantly, he says, she never touched the principal, only spending the dividends and interest.
The result? O&#8217;leary recalls being shocked after her passing when a lawyer revealed her portfolio. &#8220;The performance was extraordinary. It was beyond any hedge fund guy or anything.&#8221;
Stunned by what he saw, O'Leary adopted her strategy for his investing. &#8220;That's how I'm going to invest for the rest of my life, exactly the way Georgette did.&#8221;
Why It Matters: O&#8217;leary, popularly referred to as &#8220;Mr. Wonderful,&#8221; has long held that &#8220;it&#8217;s impossible to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/10/41339171/kevin-oleary-says-its-impossible-to-time-the-market-selling-too-soon-means-missing-out-on-big-gains">time the market</a>,&#8221; not unlike other prominent investors such as Warren Buffett, who has been reiterating similar thoughts for the past several decades.
Instead, O&#8217;leary suggests diversifying investments, while holding them through thick and thin. He believes that investors cannot predict the market&#8217;s ups and downs, and merely trying to do so can cost them dearly.
His investment philosophy, even today, is deeply <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/05/38966085/kevin-olearys-mom-shaped-his-investment-strategy-when-he-was-7-saying-boys-never-spend-the-principal">inspired by his mother</a>, with every stock or fixed income investment generating yield, which he then uses to support his family's lifestyle and charitable commitments.

Earnings Scheduled For July 1, 2025

Entrepreneur and cryptocurrency market commentator Anthony Pompliano projected Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) to soar to a gazillion Monday, driven by massive money printing in a heated economy.
What Happened:&nbsp;Pompliano took to X, reading between the lines of a Truth Social <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114768769011733248">post </a>by President Donald Trump.
&#8220;For all cost-cutting Republicans, of which I am one, REMEMBER, you still have to get reelected. Don't go too crazy! We will make it all up, times 10, with GROWTH, more than ever before,&#8221; Trump wrote.
Pompliano viewed it as a shift away from the administration&#8217;s cost-cutting measures and toward more growth-focused policies.
&#8220;The only way to accelerate growth is to innovate and to print money and we&#8217;re going to do both of them,&#8221; Pompliano said. 
He went on to say that high money printing would heat the economy and send assets priced in dollars skyrocketing, with Bitcoin going to &#8220;a gazillion dollars.&#8221;

Why It Matters:&nbsp;Pompliano&#8217;s prediction aligns with his previous statements on Bitcoin&#8217;s value surge as a response to increasing debt and inflation concerns.

Anthony Pompliano Says Bitcoin To Reach 'A Gazillion' Driven By Massive Money Printing In A Heated Economy

Goldman Sachs Group Inc. expects the Federal Reserve to deliver three quarter-point interest rate cuts this year, revising its outlook upward amid muted tariff effects and labor market weakness, the Wall Street brokerage said on Monday.
What Happened: The investment bank now projects three consecutive 25-basis-point cuts in September, October and December, abandoning its earlier forecast of a single reduction in December, Reuters reported. The revised projection reflects growing concerns about economic momentum despite ongoing tariff implementation.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has cited tariff pressures as a key inflation driver, with the central bank&#8217;s median core inflation forecast <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/46011863/jerome-powell-blames-trump-tariffs-for-inflation-analyst-claps-back-says-fed-is-overplaying-the-card">rising from 2.5% in December to 3.1% currently</a>. &#8220;That&#8217;s due to the effects of the tariffs,&#8221; Powell said during last week&#8217;s press conference.
Amazon.com Inc. CEO Andy Jassy said on Monday that the retail giant &#8220;hasn&#8217;t seen prices appreciately go up&#8221; despite widespread tariff implementation. Fundstrat Global Advisors&#8216; Tom Lee called Amazon a critical inflation indicator, noting the company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/07/46188202/tom-lee-calls-amazon-an-early-signal-as-andy-jassy-says-no-price-hike-despite-trump-tariffs-absence-of-inflation-is-a-positive-sign">massive import volume positions</a> it to &#8220;see inflation early.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The Fed has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/46133756/mohamed-el-erian-flags-political-narratives-affecting-federal-reserves-institutional-integrity-and-operational-credibility">maintained rates at 4.25%-4.50% for four consecutive meetings</a> while projecting two cuts in 2025. Personal Consumption Expenditures inflation is expected to reach 3.0% in 2025, up from March&#8217;s 2.7% forecast, while real GDP growth was downgraded to 1.4% from 1.7%.
Political tensions surrounding Fed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/46186509/scott-bessent-on-replacing-powell-as-fed-chair-i-will-do-what-the-president-wants-plays-down-shadow-chair-speculations">independence continue mounting</a>. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Monday he &#8220;will do what the President wants&#8221; when asked about potentially replacing Powell after his term expires in May 2026. President Donald Trump has repeatedly criticized Powell, calling him &#8220;a stupid person&#8221; for keeping rates &#8220;artificially high.&#8221;
Economist Mohamed El-Erian warned that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/46133756/mohamed-el-erian-flags-political-narratives-affecting-federal-reserves-institutional-integrity-and-operational-credibility">three political narratives threaten</a> the Fed&#8217;s &#8220;institutional integrity and operational credibility,&#8221; including speculation about a &#8220;shadow chair&#8221; appointment and internal pressure from Republican-leaning governors pushing for July rate cuts.

Eurozone Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index For June 49.5 Vs. 49.4 Est.; 49.4 Prior

ZEEKR's Cumulative Deliveries Reached 43,012 In June, With 16,702 From Zeekr And 26,310 From Lynk & Co.

Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) are poised to become the first companies to reach a $4 trillion market cap, driven by the burgeoning demand for artificial intelligence (AI), predicts Dan Ives, the global head of technology research at Wedbush Securities.
What Happened: Ives credits the impressive comeback of these two tech giants to ongoing innovation in AI and their significant investments in AI infrastructure. He predicts that Nvidia and Microsoft will reach a $4 trillion market cap this summer, with attention soon turning toward the $5 trillion mark within the next 18 months, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/30/analyst-dan-ives-says-it-will-be-the-summer-of-4-trillion-market-caps-for-surging-tech-giants.html">reported</a> CNBC.
Despite a rocky start to the year due to concerns over China export controls and global tariff issues, both companies have seen a significant rebound in their stock performance. This is largely due to the ongoing AI innovation and substantial investments in AI infrastructure. Ives mentioned that Nvidia and Microsoft are &#8220;foundational pieces&#8221; in the ongoing AI revolution.
Both companies are projected to reach the $4 trillion market cap milestone this summer, with the focus then shifting to the $5 trillion mark over the next 18 months. Ives believes that the tech bull market is still &#8220;in its early stages,&#8221; driven by the AI revolution.
The analyst is particularly optimistic about Nvidia&#8217;s impact on the AI ecosystem, estimating an $8 to $10 multiplier effect for every dollar spent on Nvidia across the tech ecosystem.

Why It Matters: In late June, Nvidia&#8217;s stock price hit a new all-time high, with the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/46149573/nvidias-stock-price-hits-new-highs-this-is-whats-next">technical outlook </a>remaining robust. This surge was attributed to a combination of factors, including FOMO, results, analyst trends, institutional activity, and short-covering.
CEO Jensen Huang also identified robotics as Nvidia&#8217;s next <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46109838/nvidias-next-multitrillion-dollar-opportunity-jensen-huang-sees-great-potential-here-stopped-thinking-of-ourselves-as-a-chip-company-long-ago">major growth</a> opportunity, following AI, at the company&#8217;s annual shareholders meeting.
Microsoft, on the other hand, has been solidifying its position as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46163176/microsoft-stock-could-soar-44-on-ai-boom-analyst-says-but-theres-a-catch">frontrunner </a>in monetizing AI, driving substantial gains for investors, according to a recent note from the Arora Report. Microsoft&#8217;s stock, on the other hand, could soar by 44% on the back of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46163176/microsoft-stock-could-soar-44-on-ai-boom-analyst-says-but-theres-a-catch">AI boom</a>.
In the second quarter of 2025, Wall Street&#8217;s tech darlings, including Nvidia and Microsoft, pushed sector benchmarks to one of their strongest quarterly gains on record, reigniting optimism for a continued <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46180484/nvidia-palantir-tech-stocks-to-buy-q3-2025-sectors">summer rally</a>.
Nvidia shares have been on a tear, hitting a new all-time high in late June and are expected to continue rising. On a year-to-date basis, the Microsoft stock surged 18.83%.

Billionaire investor Peter Thiel says Elon Musk's plan for "a billion humanoid robots in the U.S. in 10 years" collides with the Tesla chief's alarm over ballooning federal deficits, proof, Thiel argues, that Musk hasn't &#8220;thought through" the proposition just yet.
What Happened: In a recent New York Times "Interesting Times" interview, Thiel recalled telling his longtime friend, "If that's true, you don't need to worry about the budget deficits because we're going to have so much growth," only to find Musk "still worried about the budget deficits."
He added that Musk's anxiety "suggests … there are big error bars around it."

Yet the Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and SpaceX chief spent the past week torching President Donald Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," branding the $5 trillion package an "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46187403/elon-musk-is-unhappy-with-trumps-big-beautiful-bill-and-just-reminded-everyone-that-80-voted-for-a-new-party">insane spending bill</a>," vowing to bankroll primary challengers and teasing a new "America Party." He warns that unchecked deficits could "bankrupt the country" before robotics eases the fiscal load.
Why It Matters: Thiel's critique lands amid his criticism about technological stagnation and end-times politics, signaling a split on the tech right over whether exponential growth alone can erase red ink. Thiel also revealed that concerns about AI and political interference reportedly thwarted Elon <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46162898/elon-musk-stopped-believing-in-mars-dream-as-a-political-project-in-2024-says-peter-theil-amid-woke-ai-and-socialist-government-fears">Musk's Mars political project</a> in 2024, Peter Thiel revealed.

The Congressional Budget Office pegs Trump's bill as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45558613/house-advances-trumps-sweeping-one-big-beautiful-bill-after-key-medicaid-tax-and-border-security-changes">$2.4 trillion deficit</a> add-on, largely via tax cuts favoring higher earners. Musk insists only "radical productivity gains" will bridge that gap.

U.S. stocks settled higher on Monday, with the S&amp;P 500 hitting another record close.
President Donald Trump signaled openness to extending the July 9 deadline for reinstating reciprocal tariffs, adding that he remained optimistic about reaching key agreements in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, Canada&#8217;s withdrawal of its digital services tax helped improve the outlook for U.S. tech firms and reignited momentum in trade negotiations with Washington.
On the economic front, the Chicago PMI fell to 40.4 for June from 40.5 in May, and compared to market estimates of 42.7. The Dallas Fed&#8217;s general business activity index for Texas manufacturing climbed to a reading of -12.7 in June compared to -15.3 in the previous month.
Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>) and Juniper Networks Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNPR#NYSE">JNPR</a>) reached an agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) on Saturday.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with information technology, financial and real estate stocks recording the biggest gains on Monday. However, energy and consumer discretionary stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session lower.
The Dow Jones closed higher by around 275 points to 44,094.77 on Monday. The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.52% to 6,204.95, while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.47% to 20,369.73 during Monday's session.

What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 66.9, the index remained in the &#8220;Greed&#8221; zone on Monday, versus a prior reading of 63.8.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

S&P Hits Record High At The End Of Q2: Investor Sentiment Improves, Fear Index Remains In 'Greed' Zone

Veteran short-seller James Chanos of Kynikos Associates is once again taking a shot at Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>), calling its valuation framework not just flawed, but absurd.
What Happened: On Monday, Chanos slammed Strategy&#8217;s claim that its valuation should reflect not just the net asset value (NAV) of its Bitcoin holdings, but also a multiple on the unrealized gains, while speaking on Bloomberg&#8217;s Odd Lots podcast.

What pushed him &#8220;into orbit,&#8221; he says, was founder Michael Saylor's argument that appreciation in Bitcoin should be treated like recurring profit, and capitalized accordingly.

He went on to mock this logic with an analogy. &#8220;That&#8217;s like saying, my whole net worth is in a house that's worth $400,000 that is now worth $500,000 a year or two later, and my net worth is not $500,000 now, it's $2.5 million,&#8221; he says, underscoring the folly of this argument. &#8220;It is absurd,&#8221; he says.
Chanos also dismissed the broader Bitcoin treasury trend as mere financial engineering. &#8220;There's nothing proprietary here. This is just simply raising capital to buy a financial asset,&#8221; he said.
He further notes that the model is spreading rapidly. &#8220;Since the podcast we last did, I think the number of companies that have announced this strategy is scores more. I think there [are] over 100 in the U.S. and over 200 globally,&#8221; he says.
Why It Matters: Chanos has reiterated several times that Strategy&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45943504/short-seller-jim-chanos-reiterates-michael-saylors-strategy-premium-is-unsustainable-warns-bitcoin-arbitrage-is-not-a-static-trade">premium is unsustainable</a>, warning that Bitcoin arbitrage &#8220;is not a static trade.&#8221;
This comes weeks after he revealed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45465049/jim-chanos-goes-long-bitcoin-short-microstrategy-in-arbitrage-bet-against-retail-speculation">strategic arbitrage trade</a>, which involves going long on Bitcoin while selling Strategy short.
&#8220;We&#8217;re buying Bitcoin, selling Strategy stock, an arbitrage play, buying for $1, selling for $2.50,&#8221; Chanos said, adding that he doesn&#8217;t know where Bitcoin is headed, whether $100,000, $1 million, or $10,000, but he does know that &#8220;it&#8217;s generally profitable to short $1 for $2.50 or three dollars.&#8221;
Saylor responded to this by saying, &#8220;I don&#8217;t think he [Chanos] understands what our business model is,&#8221; he says. &#8220;What he still doesn&#8217;t understand is that we are not a holding company or a closed-end trust, we are an operating company.&#8221;
To which Chanos <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45877499/michael-saylor-says-jim-chanos-doesnt-understand-strategys-model-criticizes-long-bitcoin-short-mstr-trade-short-seller-hits-back-with-financial-gibberish-remark">promptly hit back</a>, referring to it as &#8220;financial gibberish.&#8221; He said, &#8220;Mr. Saylor wants you to value his business based not only on the net value of his Bitcoin holdings (NAV) at market, but additionally with a multiple on the change in that NAV.&#8221;
Price Action: Shares of Strategy were up 5.30% on Monday, trading at $404.23, and are down 0.63% after hours.

James Chanos Shreds Michael Saylor's Strategy Model Of 'Multiple of NAV' Valuation — Famed Short Seller Says 'It Is Absurd'

On Monday, Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) CEO Satya Nadella unveiled an AI system that outperforms human doctors in diagnosing complex medical cases, signaling a major leap toward &#8220;medical superintelligence.&#8221;
What Happened: Microsoft detailed two major advances: SDBench and MAI-DxO in a blog post titled, "The Path to Medical Superintelligence."
SDBench: This tool uses 304 case studies from the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) and turns them into interactive diagnostic simulations. The AI must think critically, ask questions, order tests and weigh the costs—much like a real-life doctor.
MAI-DxO: This is a model-agnostic orchestrator that simulates a panel of virtual physicians. It achieved 85.5% diagnostic accuracy, which is four times higher than experienced human doctors, while also reducing diagnostic costs.

"Excited to share two advances that bring us closer to real-world impact in healthcare AI," Nadella posted on X, formerly Twitter. "Together, these advances offer a blueprint for how AI can help deliver precision and efficiency in healthcare."

Microsoft admitted that this technology isn't ready to be used in real medical settings yet. The "orchestrator" still needs more testing, especially to see how well it handles everyday symptoms and routine cases, the company said.
Mustafa Suleyman, head of Microsoft AI, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/jun/30/microsoft-ai-system-better-doctors-diagnosing-health-conditions-research">told</a> The Guardian: "It's pretty clear that we are on a path to these systems getting almost error-free in the next 5-10 years. It will be a massive weight off the shoulders of all health systems around the world."
Why It's Important: In the third week of June 2025, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/06/46140911/healthcare-ai-draws-major-funding-bucking-market-uncertainty">investors poured significant capital</a> into AI startups and acquisitions, signaling strong confidence in artificial intelligence despite wider market uncertainty.
Major funding rounds included NYC's Tennr, which raised $101 million to advance AI-driven clinical intelligence and RevelAi Health, which secured $3.1 million for predictive medical tools aimed at better patient outcomes and lower costs.
Data analytics also saw big wins: PreciseDx landed $11 million to expand its AI-powered diagnostic imaging, while Typedef attracted $5.5 million to make complex analytics more accessible for businesses.
Price Action: Microsoft (MSFT) shares edged up 0.30% during Monday's regular trading session but slipped slightly by 0.012% in after-hours trading, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>. The stock has climbed 18.83% so far this year and is up 8.81% over the past 12 months.
Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings show that MSFT maintains a solid upward price trend in the short, medium, and long term. However, while its momentum remains strong, its value ranking is comparatively weaker. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-4/#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">More detailed performance metrics are available here</a>.
