JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon: "The U.S. economy remained resilient in the quarter. The finalization of tax reform and potential deregulation are positive for the economic outlook, however, significant risks persist – including from tariffs and trade uncertainty, worsening geopolitical conditions, high fiscal deficits and elevated asset prices. As always, we hope for the best but prepare the Firm for a wide range of scenarios."

Semafor: Google To Invest $25B In Data Centers Across Pennsylvania And Neighboring States Over Next Two Years, Is Signing $3B, 20-Year Deal With Brookfield To Upgrade Two Hydroelectric Power Plants

AI cloud-computing startup CoreWeave (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) surged on Tuesday after it <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/b46409849/coreweave-announces-multi-billion-dollar-commitment-to-ai-infrastructure-in-pennsylvania" rel="noreferrer noopener">announced plans to</a> invest up to $6 billion in building a state-of-the-art AI data center in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The center is designed to support advanced AI applications and strengthen U.S. global competitiveness.
Initially sized at 100 megawatts and expandable to 300 MW, the facility will be one of the region&#8217;s first large-scale AI centers and part of CoreWeave&#8217;s broader U.S. network of 33 data centers.
The company will unveil the project at a CEO roundtable with President Donald Trump during Senator Dave McCormick&#8217;s Energy and Innovation Summit at Carnegie Mellon University.

The event brings together leaders like Governor Josh Shapiro and Senator John Fetterman to discuss how emerging technologies, including AI, can drive national innovation, economic growth, and security.
CoreWeave CEO Michael Intrator emphasized the growing demand for AI compute and said this project would help accelerate innovation while creating high-impact jobs. The data center will generate 600 skilled jobs and scale to 175 permanent roles, with each job expected to spur more local employment.
CoreWeave will operate the center in partnership with Chirisa Technology Parks and Machine Investment Group, which will help lead hiring and community engagement efforts. The project reinforces CoreWeave&#8217;s commitment to scaling next-generation infrastructure in key economic regions like the Mid-Atlantic.
CoreWeave earns revenue by leasing its high-performance GPU infrastructure to businesses and AI developers for tasks like model training and complex computing. The company secures income through multi-year, upfront contracts in which customers pay for extended access to its AI-optimized cloud platform.
CoreWeave stock has gained 225% since <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/initiation/25/06/46097418/coreweave-ipo-was-fantastic-entry-point-but-stock-now-a-little-overheated" rel="noreferrer noopener">its March IPO</a>.

Despite Apple Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) recent management overhaul, CEO&nbsp;Tim Cook&nbsp;is facing mounting criticism from analysts over his leadership and the company&#8217;s innovation strategy.
What Happened: Craig Moffett of MoffettNathanson, who is one of the few analysts with a Sell recommendation on Apple stock, acknowledges Cook&#8217;s successful tenure but questions the lack of major new products under his leadership, <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/07/12/apple-ceo-tim-cook-leadership-stock-outlook-ai-strategy/">Fortune</a> reported.
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.com/quote/aapl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">AAPL stock here</a>.
&#8220;They&nbsp;haven't produced a major new&nbsp;product outside of possibly the&nbsp;earbuds in a decade,&#8221; Moffett said. &#8220;Apple&nbsp;has done far more to&nbsp;innovate process than it has&nbsp;product over Tim Cook's tenure.&#8221;
Moffett&#8217;s comments reflect a growing unease among investors about Apple&#8217;s ability to deliver transformative products under Cook&#8217;s leadership.
&#8220;Apple is unprepared for something that transformational,&#8221; stated Moffett.
While Cook&#8217;s record is undeniable, Moffett noted that the company&#8217;s success has largely been due to &#8220;exquisitely executing strategies and manufacturing&nbsp;products that were set in&nbsp;motion years before.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Earlier in the month, analysts suggested that Apple may benefit from a&nbsp;new CEO focused on<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46337313/apple-needs-product-focused-ceo-say-analysts-as-tim-cook-faces-heat-over-ai-failures-and-innovation-slump"> product innovation</a>, particularly in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). This suggestion followed the impending departure of Apple&#8217;s Chief Operating Officer,&nbsp;Jeff Williams.
This scrutiny comes at a time when Apple is undergoing a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/07/46407162/apple-undergoing-major-management-overhaul-but-ceo-tim-cook-to-stay-on">significant management</a> reshuffle. Despite the company&#8217;s recent crisis and the departure of key executives, Cook remains at the helm.
Besides failure to innovate, Tim Cook has been a target of President Donald Trump&#8216;s criticism due to his inability to shift iPhone production back to the U.S. White House trade advisor Peter Navarro recently expressed his dissatisfaction with Cook&#8217;s slow <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46313502/peter-navarro-slams-apple-ceo-tim-cook-over-slow-production-shift-out-of-china-despite-buying-time-since-trumps-first-term-longest-running-soap-opera-in-silicon-valley">production shift</a> out of China. Navarro labeled this as the &#8220;longest-running soap opera in Silicon Valley.&#8221;
Despite these criticisms, Apple&#8217;s stock has remained relatively stable. However, the ongoing concerns about the company&#8217;s innovation and leadership could potentially impact its future performance.

Analyst With Sell Rating On AAPL Stock Warns Tim Cook's Company 'Is Unprepared For Something That Transformational'

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) supplier Foxconn is set to enter the Japanese market with the company's bespoke EV buses, thanks to subsidies offered by the Taiwanese government.
What Happened: Purchasing and operating EVs certified by the government is eligible for receiving over $181,000 in subsidies, almost half the value of an EV bus, Nikkei Asia reported <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Electric-vehicles/Foxconn-EV-buses-set-to-enter-Japan-on-back-of-Taiwan-subsidies">on</a> Tuesday.
Foxconn's Model T bus is one of 6 eligible EV buses to receive the subsidies. The Model T offers a range of over 249 miles (400 kilometers) on a single charge, the report suggests.
The company plans to launch the Model T as well as the Model U microbus in Japan by 2027, supplying parts to Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation, the report suggests.
Why It Matters: The news comes as Foxconn had earlier <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45667851/apple-supplier-foxconn-set-to-announce-second-japanese-auto-partner-as-it-turns-to-evs">signed an MoU</a> or Memorandum of Understanding with Japan's Mitsubishi Motors to jointly develop an EV.

The World's Largest Framework Agreement for the Purchase of Hydroelectricity
Over $3 Billion of Contracts Signed Today for 670 MW Holtwood and Safe Harbor&nbsp;Facilities in Pennsylvania
NEW YORK and PITTSBURGH, July 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brookfield Asset Management (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAM#NYSE">BAM</a>, TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAM#TSX">BAM</a>), together with Brookfield Renewable (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BEP#NYSE">BEP</a>, BEPC, TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BEP#TSX">BEP</a>, BEPC))) ("Brookfield") and Google today announced a first-of-its-kind Hydro Framework Agreement ("HFA") to deliver up to 3,000 megawatts (MW) of carbon-free hydroelectric capacity across the United States – the world's largest corporate clean power deal for hydroelectricity.
The first contracts executed under the HFA are for Brookfield's Holtwood and Safe Harbor hydroelectric facilities in Pennsylvania, representing more than $3 billion of power and 670 MW of capacity.
The HFA represents a significant step forward in Brookfield's strategy to deliver flexible, dispatchable clean energy solutions to the technology sector and supports Google's ambition to power its operations with 24/7 carbon-free energy.
Under the HFA, Google has the ability to procure carbon-free electricity from up to 3,000 MWs of hydroelectric assets that will be relicensed, overhauled, or upgraded to extend the asset's useful life and continue adding power to the grid. The first contracted assets consist of hydroelectric facilities in Pennsylvania that Brookfield is relicensing. Brookfield and Google will initially focus in the mid-Atlantic (PJM) and mid-continent (MISO) electricity markets, with the flexibility to expand into other U.S. regions.
The 20-year Power Purchase Agreements ("PPAs") for Brookfield's Holtwood and Safe Harbor hydroelectric facilities in Pennsylvania will support Google's operations across PJM. The transaction structure allows Brookfield to maintain existing commitments to power consumers such as Amtrak from the Safe Harbor facility.

Brenmiller Secures Second EU Grant And Japan Partnership In Just Six Weeks, Strengthening Global Momentum For Its bGen Thermal Storage System

The Trump administration&#8217;s decision to allocate $1 billion for cyber warfare capabilities has sparked controversy due to the simultaneous reduction in the nation&#8217;s cybersecurity defense budget.
What Happened:&nbsp;The Pentagon has earmarked $1 billion for cyber warfare initiatives, with a focus on strengthening the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command&#8217;s capabilities. This move aligns with the growing strategic competition with China in the Asia-Pacific region,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.technology.org/2025/07/14/pentagon-allocates-1-billion-for-cyber-warfare-capabilities-under-trumps-latest-budget/">reported</a>&nbsp;Technology.org.
The cyber warfare programs will include a range of attack strategies targeting hostile nations, possibly using zero-day exploits and surveillance tools to extract data from specific individuals or organizations.
However, this significant investment comes at the expense of the nation&#8217;s cybersecurity defense budget, which has seen a $1 billion reduction. This reduction comes amid continued digital threats from Chinese state actors targeting U.S. infrastructure and institutions.
Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore), a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, criticized the administration&#8217;s decision. He pointed out that the reduced funding for protective cybersecurity initiatives, including the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), leaves the country vulnerable to attacks by foreign hackers.
&#8220;The&nbsp;Trump administration has slashed funding&nbsp;for cybersecurity and government technology&nbsp;and left our country wide&nbsp;open to attack by foreign&nbsp;hackers,&#8221; Wyden said.

Why It Matters: The U.S. has been actively combating cyber threats and fraudulent activities. Earlier in June, the&nbsp;Department of Justice sought to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45811290/doj-seeks-to-seize-7-7-million-in-bitcoin-ethereum-nfts-allegedly-laundered-by-north-korean-it-workers">seize $7.7 million</a> in cryptocurrency&nbsp;and NFTs allegedly laundered by North Korean IT workers. This move was part of the U.S. government&#8217;s efforts to combat money laundering through digital assets.
Additionally, the U.S. government has been cracking down on fraudulent schemes. In July, the&nbsp;DOJ dismantled a $14 billion <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/07/46195080/doj-dismantles-14-billion-healthcare-fraud-scheme-in-largest-ever-crackdown-impacting-over-1-million-americans">healthcare fraud</a> scheme, resulting in the seizure of assets worth over $245 million, including cryptocurrency. 
These events underline the increasing importance of cybersecurity and the potential implications of the recent budget cuts. Notably, Wedbush Securities analyst Daniel Ives has named cybersecurity as the "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46400448/dan-ives-bets-on-cybersecurity-as-biggest-subsector-in-tech-for-2025-expects-strong-q2-earnings-from-crowdstrike-zscaler-palo-alto-check-point">biggest subsector</a>" within the tech industry for 2025.

Insights From Analysts:
Senior economist at WisdomTree, Jeremy Siegel, said that the public firms in the U.S. were beginning to quantify potential damage from tariffs, though these estimates remain based on previously announced rates, not the most recent escalation threats.
He highlighted that the official impact will start to show in the July data, but those numbers won't be released until August or even September. Investors will have to watch high-frequency indicators like jobless claims and credit card spending, in the meantime, he added.
&#8220;The real risk is that rising tariffs will continue to sap purchasing power just as economic momentum is already slowing. While I don't see a recession looming, growth is undeniably weaker than what we saw through much of 2024,&#8221; he added.
Meanwhile, the analysts at BlackRock highlighted two ways to capture alpha and earn returns in the market in their latest commentary.
&#8220;U.S. tariffs could intensify already elevated dispersion, making this a more rewarding environment for alpha,&#8221; their note stated.
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>One way to capture that alpha? Reduce the potential drag from static factor exposures by deliberately managing macro risk.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Another approach to capturing alpha: avoiding macro factor risk in favor of security-specific risk.</li>
</ul>
The note thus added that &#8220;Dynamically managing macro risk and taking security-specific risk can help capture it (alpha). We eye selective global opportunities.&#8221;
